Do you have one or two books that are your favorites, books that through the years have become like old friends? If you do you will understand how I feel about one particular book in my library.

In years past I have read my special book cover to cover. Now from time to time I pick it up and simply open it to any random page or chapter to see how those words and ideas might apply to my life today.

The book I am referencing is “Living in Balance” by Joel and Michelle Levey. I do not remember how it came into my hands about six or seven years ago. All I know for sure is that I treasure it. It is dog eared and well underlined not by me but by the previous reader. Nearly every page has hand drawn stars and notes in the margin placed there by an unknown reader.

I decided a week or so ago that considering the condition of the book perhaps I should buy a new copy for my book collection and give the old one to someone who might appreciate it as I have. I ordered a fresh copy from Amazon and soon it arrived at my door.

Although the new book was a hardback book rather than paper, in every other way it was identical. It contained the same number of pages, the same words, sentences and chapters, even the publication date was the same 1998. The only apparent difference was that it was free of notes, stars and underlining.

The new book did not attract me. I wasn’t drawn to it. Since other than being in pristine condition this new book was the same collection of words and ideas, why did I refuse to pick it up and read it? It took me awhile to realize the underlying difference.

The former book owner or reader, whoever he or she was, had filled that first copy of mine with loving appreciative energy. It was as if I had not only owned a book full of wisdom but a true treasure filled with a second confirming opinion.

The new book simply had not been imbued with that same intensely warm energy. It felt like a poor copy rather than an original.

Why am I telling you this little story? The reason is that I have observed many times you and I can be motivated by strong energies that we are not consciously aware of. We don’t recognize the source of the energies and mistakenly assume they are ours.

As we move through our days mindfulness or a deeper awareness of the moment can help us to act upon and inculcate only the personally appropriate energies.

My thought is this: All of us can benefit greatly by accessing and amplifying our natural intuitive abilities. If we care enough to work with our own extra sensory perceptions, we will make wiser choices.

If we will take the time to look below the surface of any relationship or occurrence we can become users of more appropriate action as opposed to users of automatic and sometimes erroneous reaction. You know that when we quickly and spontaneously react we are usually allowing someone or some situation to control us.

I believe that most people who seriously approach the amplification of their own intuitive or psychic abilities are looking for a surer pathway to access the wisdom of their own high self, guides and teachers. The pursuit of your own God given perceptions can only lead you to a smoother more accomplished flow of life.

Do not limit yourself by using only the rational approach to daily living. Why should you take such a limited way when all the highest information is available to you? Your guides, your teachers and your angels are continually standing by awaiting your call.

I urge you to contact your guides, masters, teachers and angels. Contact them often with your concerns, your questions, your plans. Above all contact them with gratitude, with genuine thankfulness. That inner energy of gratitude is not for their benefit but for yours.

When you approach anything with an attitude of thankfulness, gratitude for everything in your life, all doors swing wide for you. Your good comes rushing in to meet you.

When you seek the bigger picture, the deeper understanding, your life path will widen and expand. In response to your efforts the Light comes on and brightens both metaphorically and energetically. Your own unique way of spiritual growth and service unfolds.

I am Reverend Lois Cheney your Sarasota Florida Psychic Medium. I encourage you to call for your private counseling appointment. All your questions are important and can be answered with the help of your personal guides and teachers. If you would like messages from departed loved ones, as a medium I will be happy to bring those to you.

All readings are completely confidential. You will be given a cassette recording of your session for later review. You can come to my Florida studio or your reading is available and equally accurate by telephone.

Using the past as a benchmark for your creation of today’s situations and the future is using a flawed yardstick! If your memories of your yesterdays are glowing and positive that is fine but all too often negative memories of the past can cause somewhat irrational reactions in the now.

If your memories of past situations are causing you to react in ways that are uncomfortable or even harmful to you, to those around you and to your current life experiences, it is time to take action.

I am not suggesting that you forget the past or bury it. What I am offering you may seem a bit unusual at first glance but it does work. I am suggesting that you make some subtle but important changes in the way you remember certain troubling aspects from the past.

It is not at all unusual for us to take a past trauma and rehearse it over and over again. We make the memory strong, harsher and more energized until it is vastly different than the original happening. Hashing and rehashing an unhappy past will not create anything positive.

The method I am going to detail for you will not affect anyone in those memories but it can be a world of help to you. For instance, if you have endured emotional or physical abuse in any relationship begin right now to see yourself responding in a different way.

If someone has lowered or crushed your self esteem with heavy words, see yourself saying something mild and just walking away head held high. “I understand your feelings. I am sorry you feel that way.” Then in your imagination you leave the room and let the words roll off. This takes some memory practice but you can do it. Every time the memory comes to your mind practice it in its new form.

If the suffered abuse was a physical one, construct with your imagination a scenario where a concerned and loving person arrives to intercede on your behalf, someone who takes you out of harm’s way. This memory adjustment will not take hold immediately but eventually with your repetition it will replace the original version. Your harsh emotions will soften and subside. The change will free you to trust life more fully.

The tremendous benefit of restructuring memories of the hurtful past is that you can stop the patterns! You do not need to project that “hurt me” energy over and over again. You can stop manifesting similar situations today and tomorrow.

Once you have pulled the plug on the negative aspects of memories you are back in control. You can create the kind of future you truly want. Remember that the past only exists for you as a series of memories. Because this is so, it only makes sense to put as much peace and joyous living into those memories as your imagination will allow.

On a slightly different aspect of the same principle, anytime today you encounter a happening that is not to your liking, a seeming negative, you have a wonderful choice. Why do you have a choice? Because you are the one in charge of labeling and categorizing any situation you find confronting you.

I remember my first time of taking shorthand notes some years ago. I was working for the director of an Illinois research facility. It was a meeting of the 12 department heads and I was writing as fast as I could to keep up with all the input.

After the meeting, when I was busy typing my notes, the director called me to his office. He said, “Now we will decide what happened at the meeting.” In other words he was using the opportunity to label and categorize the results according to his point of view.

Decide to put some sincere thought into how you label things. In other words if nothing comes together the way you had planned, decide to think that this is an opportunity to find a better plan. Label it, “Opportunity Calling” or just tell yourself that this presents an excellent chance to practice that patience skill you have been wanting.

There is no occurrence that can resist your positive identifying spin no matter how dark it may seem on first look. Deciding that every negative is hiding a good opportunity is the best thing you can do for yourself. It opens your mind to unconsidered or previously ignored chances to learn and grow.

Every one of us have had tragedy touch our lives at some time Let me describe to you how I dealt with one of my own most difficult times.

It was ten years ago this past January. My husband Jim and I had been married for 19 years. We taught classes together. He had his own hypnosis clients. My Jim was recovering nicely from an extensive heart surgery two or three months previously. By all appearances he was as well as I had ever seen him. Then with no warning one sunny Arkansas day he shot and killed himself.

I was presented with a huge choice. Of course I mourned. The choice was whether I should also blame myself. Should I feel guilty that somehow I should have seen his mental/emotional state? Should I have known he needed help? Should I have anticipated the tragedy? Was I obliged to shoulder a heavy load of guilt?

This was my decision and no one else could make it for me. I deliberately elected to tell myself that he had my best interests at heart. I felt that because of his age he was most likely concerned that his health would continue to decline and that decline would make him a burden to me. He loved me enough to not allow that to happen.

Was my view of the situation and its cause pure rationalization on my part? Perhaps, but that attitude allowed me to move forward in a life affirming way. That concept freed me from what could have been years of self recrimination and stagnation.

Whatever “the truth” may have been at the time, I believe that he made a loving sacrifice which has allowed me to give myself fully to the work I am meant to do.

I have no doubt that many of you have moved through equally difficult situations. From my clients, I hear all sorts of problems and traumas that they encountered as children and later as adults in relationships.

The truth is that as long as we continue to rehearse the fears, doubts and worries from the past, we will continue to meet similar troubling situations in the present and the future.

A little time invested in giving those troublesome memories a more positive spin is worth the effort involved. There is no reason to let a heavily charged negative memory ruin your life today.

You want to act within each new situation in a positively appropriate new way. What you do not need or want is to react from the past, from a negative memory trigger which spoils the now moment.

The highest good you can extract from the past is the wisdom you have gained—the knowledge and understanding that has brought you to this moment.

Why improve your hurtful memories? Because general we do exactly the opposite. We amplify the hurts beyond all reason and certainly beyond the truth of the past. This amplification through the continual focus of our energy brings most unwelcome results.

You deserve the very best, happiest, most productive life. You can have exactly that. You are strong, powerful, capable and talented. I believe in your right and ability to choose.

I woke this morning with tears rolling down by cheeks. No it was not sadness. It was all because of one emotion filled powerful idea. Here it is: Don’t wait! Don’t wait until you are perfect. Don’t wait for the best time. Don’t wait until you know exactly how you should begin. Just start.

Just shower forth all the Light you have today, this minute. Save this idea of being “perfect” for later. For today, just give your personal light, love, compassion, and understanding in the best way you can.

Everyone on earth today, every animal, every living thing can use more light, more love, more understanding. If you have been locking the best of yourself away until you were sure you had it “right”, until you had refined all your thoughts, all your methods, stop. Begin this minute to pour yourself into your personal idea of Spirit service.

Make a strong definite decision to begin sending this uplifting energy to all life that you contact. Once you have made that purely mental decision, move away from the realm of mind and thought, begin to act only from the your heart and soul.

The pure energy coming from love’s wisdom emanating from the depths of your heart and soul offers the greatest healing stream. It is a vibration that balances, enlivens and challenges.

When you project your personal love and light you become a magnet that draws even more love and light to you. You find yourself in the company of those of similar intent, those who are working from their own highest ideals.

WITH ONE HEARTFELT ACTION AT A TIME, GIVE YOUR LIGHT, YOUR LOVE, YOUR SPIRIT TO THE EARTH AND ALL HER PEOPLE.

You and I arrived on earth at this particular time to express our God given light and love for the purpose of evolving all life. It is our responsibility to hold and send forth as much of this precious Spirit energy as we can.

Waiting until you know the exact “right” way to do this sending of pure light and love, makes no sense. The only way you can perfect your transmission is to begin transmitting. Now is the time to start. Know that you were born with the ability and creativity you need to make a difference.

Years ago I attended a concert at the University of Illinois that continues to live in my memory. Karen Carpenter was singing: “Don’t worry that it’s not good enough for anyone else to hear just sing, sing a song.” I encourage you, begin your song today. “Sing it loud, sing it clear”

It is your song and only you know the right words and music.

Life does not get better with hesitation and fear. Life has to be lived to the fullest or it will be pale and lack any demonstrable meaning.

The more you throw yourself into the business of living from your creativity, your Spirit lead ideas, the more wonderful ideas you will have. The more you act on those ideas the greater your benefit to yourself and those around you. You become a powerful energized example of light.

In this time that seems to offer only disruption and chaos, there is also the most dynamic and progressive of possibilities. Wherever you see change that seems so upsetting, know that something better is on its way. You are in the enviable position of welcoming this positive “repositioning” of life as we have known it.

At this particular time in earth’s history we are each asked to step forward to contribute our very best. We are called upon to evolve ourselves to the point that we create and welcome our own ascension and offer the ascension process to all life.

Know that each of you is a powerful being. Individually and together you have access to all the wisdom and energy that you could possibly use. Believe in yourselves and your potential.

Today you together with all the other light bearers are creating mankind’s future and earth’s future. You are truly that powerful. You are that important.

The same old Spirit? Yes and no. The same Spirit but seemingly completely new when viewed through the eyes of over 100 windows of sparkling Light.

Those windows of Light I am referencing were the fantastic souls in attendance at the 24th Dowsing and Healing Conference held for five days at the end of April in Fayetteville Arkansas. It has taken me two weeks to really digest all of the inspiration I received there.

It never fails to amaze me that after 30 some years of teaching, lecturing and counseling I always find a new thought and a new way. Even one of my “usual workshops” takes on a new energy and direction as I lecture to different groups.

What surprised me the most at the convention was to find an extraordinary number of my personal soul group among the attendees. It makes me wonder: How far ahead of time did we collaborate in the silence to make this meeting happen?

I am extraordinarily grateful to the Ozark Research Institute founders, Gladys and Harold McCoy, and their many helpers for the year long effort it requires to sponsor the convention.

On the surface each presenter at the convention came from a completely different point of view. The truth is they were all simply pointing their own unique way of accessing the Light of Spirit and soul path for which we continually yearn.

Individual channeling of Spirit energy was the thrust of every presentation. Regardless of whether the class concerned the “72 Names of God”, “Spoon Bending”, “Treasure Mapping”, “Dreams”, “Energetic Healing” or “Life Path”, the focus remained on accessing and using Spirit-Soul guidance and energy.

I am grateful for every client who sought my private counseling while I was in Fayetteville. I feel blessed to be allowed to help each of them. Every reading I offer amplifies my own abilities to uplift and enlighten others.

It is always amazing to me how many roads there are to the same destination— creation of the soul’s learning and progress! I think at this particular time in earth’s evolution we are all feeling a greater pressure to actuate our lives to the fullest. Our overriding desire is to fully encompass our Spirit in this human body. We want to know with certainty that we are doing the work we came here to do.

Every “clue” that we can gather to point us in the direction of our greatest life fulfillment is valuable. We are each endowed with an abundance of personal talent and creativity. It is up to each of us to bring our uniqueness forward in a way that will bless not only ourselves and the people we touch but our living earth as well.

Where does your personal road lead? Are you here to work with the plant or animal kingdom? Did you come to teach other Light Bearers through your personal gifts and understanding? Is offering peace and non-judgment your path? What is your unique way to bring the Light of Spirit, the I Am Presence to the earth and her people at this time?

I am here in my Florida studio to help you with any of your life challenges. I offer you a confidential reading appointment in my Florida counseling room or by telephone. In either case, I will give you a tape recording of your session for your later review in the privacy of your home.

It is my joy to help by channeling the guidance of your personal guides and masters. The messages of recurring dreams can be deciphered for you. In addition, I am able to bring you information from your loved ones in spirit if you desire.

Words are wonderful tools. Words create pictures and feelings for us whether they are written or spoken. But there is a significant problem with offering words: each of us understands their meanings in a slightly different way.

Don’t get me wrong I love words, language. I am particularly enamored with any sort of dictionary or encyclopedia. However, just lately I have begun to realize how vastly different individual interpretation and understanding of words can be.

In my recent workshop for the Ozark Research Institute, I handed out envelopes to each of the 30 plus participants. These particular envelopes contained no words at all just similar photographs. The pictures of various flowers which I placed in the envelopes were truly beautiful ones taken by my daughter.

The students were advised just to hold the envelopes for a period of time without opening them. Later each told the class what vibrations they had felt or sensed from the envelopes. Even though the contents of those envelopes were similar, each one of the students felt something different. No one was wrong even though no one expressed the word “flower”.

It was obvious even with a highly detailed photograph and no written words as a distraction, individual impressions are different. Each member of the class came from a somewhat different background, had encountered different experiences and consequently each was impressed with a completely different aspect of their personal envelope.

Some felt earth or dirt. One who had the photo of the parrot tulips quite accurately saw a deep purple color. Another simply felt water. One detected pulsing life. And one of the students who had the picture of white lilies saw the color red which I believe was simply the life energy of the flowers.

But I can honestly say no one was wrong. They simply understood things in a different way, were attracted to realities of the photos from their own unique perspective.

In my work as a counselor a great percentage of the problems that clients bring to me are those which exist in their relationships. These difficulties are apparently very similar in nature whether the relationships with which they are involved are intimate, spousal, family, friendship or workforce related. These problems all have a major component of either misunderstanding or total lack of accurate communication.

If our goal is to communicate with each other from the wisdom of our indwelling Spirit, then that communication has to carry more depth than mere words. We need to begin speaking or writing from our intuitive vibration. We need to choose our words as well as our accompanying emotional wave length with great care.

The most ignored principle of good communication is the first one. If we want to be heard we must first listen to the other person and we must listen with love. When we can hear with our hearts, there is a much better opportunity to gain understanding and make an appropriate reply.

Unfortunately, many times we are so busy framing a response to someone’s ideas that we really are not hearing them at all. We have heard this or that similar situation before and think we have the right answer. Often we do not if simply because their situation is not exactly the same as any other problem or challenge.

If you can bring the energy of love’s wisdom, the deep understanding that exists in your heart and soul to all your interactions with others, you will begin to evolve any relationship.

Whether you are speaking to loved ones, friends or strangers, learning to use your highest spirit-inspired words will enable you to move forward with grace. You will lift and inspire all those around you.

My Buddhist friend tells me that it is an affront to Spirit to ever take offense at another’s words or actions. Why? Because if we are offended, we have judged. We believe that the words were an attack against our ego, our self image. We have taken the position that we are entitled to say that the person was “wrong”. We have decided that we have the right to be “hurt”.

We have all heard: “don’t take anything personally” “It’s not about you, it’s them.” Sometimes that is not so easy. If we practice taking the high road in our associations with others, allowing others to be who they are, as they are, life becomes much more pleasant. We can begin to learn instead of suffering.

I am not suggesting that we toss out our ability to intelligently discriminate in our relationships. We need to know when we are moving down a path that will not be for our best good.

If we have exhausted all our best ideas of verbal interaction with anyone and find ourselves at an impasse, it may be necessary to love someone from a distance. It may be necessary to move that person off the center stage of our life up to the balcony or even out to the curb.

We cannot force all relationships to work the way we wish. The most we can do is to give more inner attention to the way we speak and write. If we will do that we will encounter less resistance to our communication with others.

The workshop I offered at the recent conference in Arkansas brought me great joy as I witnessed the enthusiasm of the students. I had opportunities to counsel with many of those who attended. If I can be of help to you with any of your questions or life challenges, simply call or e-mail for your personal appointment. I can meet you in my Florida studio or work with you over the telephone. In either case I will give you a complete recording of your private session.

I talk to myself a lot these days. It seems to be my way of figuring things out. I feel the need to analyze my actions and my motives. So when I noticed a personal peculiarity the other day, I had to understand it.

You see I spend a lot of time at the beach. I am usually there twice a day weather permitting. I love the early morning walk in the damp sand. I particularly enjoy the sunsets. If I have time I will enjoy a quick swim.

Many times I will just stand with my feet and ankles in the water doing a visualization exercise. I imagine and intend that I am releasing into the Gulf of Mexico any attitude, idea or emotion that no longer serves me. I see those concepts and feelings being “recycled” and brought back to my body as clean fresh energy.

Being near the water or in it always brings me a sense of peace and expansiveness. I feel part of the large scheme of life. I simply feel more capable of anything I might need to accomplish.

So what is this about shoes? I like to walk barefoot in the sand. I sense the closeness with Spirit, with Soul. The odd thing is that as soon as I walk away from those sandals I begin to worry that I will lose them. You have to understand they are only cheap plastic. It certainly is not the expense. So what is this fear about?

I always try to put the shoes where I will remember and can see them easily. Yet I worry. I think perhaps I should put some red ribbons on the toes of the shoes but I don’t. Maybe I ought to bring a bright colored towel to lay the sandals on but I don’t.

What is this rather unreasonable fear? If I lost them the worst that could happen is I would drive the half mile home barefoot. Could the shoes somehow represent my ability to move forward? Am I concerned that I may not be able to “keep pace” with my plans and ambitions?

Even further could I be afraid metaphorically of “losing my balance” with all the projects that are active in my life now. In my eagerness to do it all could I be worried about stumbling over my own feet? Could the shoes represent my need for stability?

I have not reached any mind blowing conclusion. I am just trying to keep my sense of humor in all this cogitating. After all it is said that those people born under a Pisces sign (which I am) either have impossibly big hands and feet or small ones. In that lottery I drew long feet that are difficult to fit. Perhaps I just dread having to go shopping again!

One thing remains true. Our outward actions as well as our emotions will tell us how we view our lives. They will clearly point out our belief or lack of belief in our own abilities. Emotions can be enormously helpful in showing us where we need to do some personal work or restructuring of our self judgments.

Each one of us arrived on this earth with special abilities, talents and innate desires for their fulfillment. In further developing what you already possess, you will access the passion and joy that come from following your personal life path.

Allow yourself a mistake or two. Do it better the next time! Praise yourself when you get it right. Be grateful for every breakthrough large or small. You are special, important and valuable. By your example you are a gift to this earth and all her people.

I am Reverend Lois Cheney. My joy is in helping my clients access their highest potential through channeled counseling and teaching. If you would like, I will be happy to assist you with answers to any of your life questions and challenges.

I will schedule an appointment for you in my studio in Florida or by telephone. In either case you will receive a cassette recording of your reading for your later review.

You know that you are so much more than just your physical body and intellect. You are a dynamo of divine energy. Point the energy that is you in a specific direction through your thoughts, your words, your imagination and stand back! Until you begin working with the energy that is you, you simply will not believe the “miracles” you can create.

Let me explain. I believe in affirmations, those positive statements that we make as if they were true this minute. Let me offer my experience with the benefits of affirming. In the 1970’s when I had completed three courses offered by Silva Mind Control, I decided I would attend their convention held in Laredo, Texas.

I was not familiar with Laredo or the Mind Control conventions but I had a strong feeling that the convention would be important for me. Naturally I wanted to get the very most I could from the experience.

To accomplish that goal I recorded my voice on cassette tape telling me something along these lines: “In the first week in October I will attend the Silva Mind Control Convention in Laredo. I will have a tremendously powerful experience and gain much useful knowledge. My intuitive abilities will expand….”
I listened to that 10 minute tape of my voice on my earphones three times every day, morning, noon and night all through the month of September. I followed the listening with a short silent meditation.

In other words, I invested 45 minutes every day for a whole month to be sure of success! Was that “over kill”? Maybe!

What were the results? Yes, I had a super learning experience at the Convention. Every time I encountered a glitch, I reminded myself that I was having a “tremendously powerful experience.” So what, the room reservations were confused. So what! I received a better, larger room that offered an unlimited view of miles!

My time with the hundreds of other attendees in workshop after workshop was totally comfortable as well as exciting. I met some beautifully evolved people. On the plane ride back, I felt I could fly just on my own enthusiasm. I came home with loads of new ideas.

However that which was the most interesting result of all that intense programming was yet to come. Every first week in October from that year to this, I have enjoyed a usually unexpected but enlightening experience. It has become my October gift like a second birthday.

I now look forward to October every year knowing that something wonderful is on the horizon for me. It is as if that energy keeps on working for me and just will not go away. Who could have guessed that those times of affirming and meditating could produce such an ongoing result?

If you will look at the way you are spending or using your own minutes, hours and days, you might decide to invest some of that time in the creation of a “miracle” for yourself! My desire for you is that you manifest the most fulfilling life for yourself that you can think, dream, or imagine! I know you have the power.

I am Reverend Lois Cheney, your Sarasota, Florida Psychic. I am ready to answer any of your questions or life challenges. Call me today for your private reading in my studio or by telephone. I will provide a cassette tape of your full reading for your later study.

How much joy do you have in your life? How much room will you make for joy in your life? What brings you joy?

Many times when I am counseling with clients I will ask them to make a “happy list”: “I am happy when I…” Writing the list, making it solid on paper, is hopefully giving them a view of the positive aspects of their life. In truth, the happy list is just one small step toward identifying what brings them to a state of pure joy.

Why would I want them to identify joy in their lives? Joy is much greater than mere happiness. It is an elevated effervescent energy than emanates from the heart. When joy is in control of you, you also have accessed a state of unconditional love and gratitude.

The combination of Joy, Love and Gratitude is absolutely power filled.

Real joy allows you to see the source of everything and everyone as Spirit. When you are afloat in the heavenly aspects of joy, when you allow yourself to see from that higher perspective, your soul shines!

At that moment of intense joy, your soul is offering you deep understanding and seemingly miraculous possibilities.

In the experience of joy, heart and soul wisdom is always completely available. You are receptive to the highest and best information and direction without any coloring or disruption from ego.

If you know that hosting increased amounts of joy in your life will bring you greater ability to see and access your own perfect path, are you willing to deliberately entertain more joy? Will you decide to make more time for joy by eliminating time spent in useless worry and fretting?

THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NOTHING “FRIVOLOUS” ABOUT JOY! It is an important part of living and experiencing. It deserves to be cultivated and allowed to flow freely in your life.

Decide today, to look for whatever brings you to that elevated energy of joy. Find it. Repeat it. Increase its’ presence until it becomes a strong energy muscle in your life. The rewards will show themselves by illuminating your own higher purpose and understanding.

Your life path and purpose are important. My work is helping you to identify ways of actuating your very best life now. Call me today for a confidential reading appointment or to learn about my private intuitive lessons.

Do you believe that there are words so powerful, so energized that they can create, manifest or simply change anything to which they are spoken? Could it be that there exist words that contain the power to reverse a negative into a positive?

In my counseling work I talk to clients from diverse backgrounds with equally diverse challenges. However, there are some attributes or characteristics in common that I have observed in people who are obviously feeling a deep gratitude for their lives and all of their experiences either good or bad.

I see these thankful people move through life’s obstacles with ease. They even seem to have fewer problems, encounter less difficulty and enjoy more delights. The people who are living lives of gratitude for every aspect of life with all its inherent challenges are happier, more peaceful and calmer. They treasure and enjoy deeper friendships, and in many instances they also seem much more prosperous or wealthy.

If grateful people are living more enriched and gratifying lives, how can we inculcate a practice of gratitude into our days? How can we make thankfulness part of our nature? Could we place enough energy and intent into the words “THANK YOU” that the words could become magic for us? Could we speak those words at times and in ways that they would send forth the desired magnetism and magic?

To whom or what should we practice sending our “thank you”s? We might begin by privately thanking ourselves when we get it right or correct a misstep. Certainly we need to thank our loved ones for every kind and thoughtful thing they do.

We might begin writing notes to thank a new friend for his visit. We perhaps could write a note of appreciation for ideas offered to us or special accommodations made.

The written “thank you” carries even a stronger charge than just the spoken word. Many times the recipient of such a note will read that note several times, even saving it to look back and remember the kindness that caused it to be written.

Sailing a loud “THANK YOU” into the ethers with honesty, earnestness and generous love for our universe might create just the attracting pathway for the personal miracles we desire for our lives. When we are truly grateful, we open ourselves to be a vessel. We make ourselves available for the in filling of Spirit. We accept and receive the bounty that is our birthright.

“Thank you” can be a way of expressing and sending forth the love that is the true essence of each of us. As the Thanksgiving holiday approaches, please join me in creating a week of gratitude and love for each other, for all that we have, for all that we are and especially for our blessed, bountiful earth, let us say “THANK YOU”.

It is my delight to give you the benefit of answers to your life questions from your guides, teachers and angels. Call today for you private reading appointment. I will read for you in my studio or by telephone. Always you will be given a complete recording of your counseling session to review at your leisure.

Spirit is always trying to lead you. Your inner goals are continuingly illumined by Spirit. Unfortunately, that bright light that points the way can be dimmed by your old thoughts and fears.

Day to day your soul wants to protect you and speed you forward to greater accomplishment. The desires planted in your heart push for expression. Your angels watch and wait for your call.

With all of this assistance standing in readiness, why do we as humans often times seem to remain stuck in worn out but familiar ways?

Could it be that dynamic change is frightening to us? Is it possible that any deviation from what we have viewed as the norm is too unsettling to contemplate? Perhaps the unknown is simply too foreboding.

If any one of us would be willing with the guidance of Spirit to take the “road less traveled”, we might well open the way for our own enlightenment while widening the path for others.

Students ask me how much they should meditate in order to hear that quiet voice point the way. They ask if that inner work should occupy minutes, hours or days. My reply is that meditation is good, positive and elevating and I heartily recommend it. However,to spend all our time, or most of our time in meditation would be to ignore our day to day work with our fellow humans and the earth.

My personal experience has been that 15 minutes three times each day, a total of 45 minutes, is enough time in meditation to bring me the peace, calm and direction I require. Admittedly all of us are different. I just do not want to remove myself too much from the outward expression and accomplishment of my inner work!

I am sure there will be times when healing work for yourself or others will require you to step away and utilize more time. Each situation you encounter may call for a different approach.

We are needed in all our human physicality to help each other move forward. We are needed to express our love to the earth and all of its inhabitants through our actions. To accomplish that goal we need to practice our moment to moment awareness of what is happening around us.

As you become more skilled to intuit and assess situations, your questions more often will be addressed by Spirit in your awake and alert state as opposed to answers coming only from deep meditation.

Learning to be more adept at accessing Spirit’s Truth you will find yourself with appropriate answers as you wait in line at the checkout counter of the supermarket or planting flowers in the backyard! Living in and understanding the NOW moment is the way it should be.

Knowledge in partnership with the wisdom to use it can arrive in intriguing ways. A book title may catch your eye and lead you to a totally unexpected direction or into a new solution. A stranger may ask a question that ignites a potent idea within you.
Being completely alive to each moment will bring you amazing help in the form of hints, quiet or occasionally, hints that are quite loud and insistent!

Your personal questions are important. A private psychic reading can be of great benefit. I would like to help you with your life challenges. The desires of your heart and soul are important to me. Call for your trance reading today. All sessions are completely confidential. I provide you with a cassette recording of your reading for your review at a later time.
