Today I am giving you a very special gift. I am printing for you the personal permission slip you were given when you entered this lifetime. It says: “In this moment and now and forever you are granted the unending right to be and express that very special, unique, unusual individual you were born to be.” Now I must ask you: Are you willing to use that right?

Just as no two snowflakes are alike, you are not like any other person on this earth or possibly any other life form in the cosmos. It is your own individuality that is your gift. You are special and important. I applaud all your differences.

Somewhere deep inside you lives a power filled urging to carve your own path, to pull away from whatever anyone else thinks you should or ought to do. Your soul pushes you to express your uniqueness, to take chances by acting on your wildest ideas.

Oh, yes, you may have goals and objectives that are similar to the ideas of others, but your way of accomplishment will never be the same. Your methods will not be identical to those of anyone else. You were born to shine in your own way. None of you are clones.

Why is this so important? Because by acknowledging your unique desires and abilities you are shedding the inhibiting guidelines you have absorbed or inherited from family, friends or coworkers. This letting go of past instructions will allow you to finally fully actuate the life that your soul intended from your birth. By projecting the truth of who you are into your life, you may lose a friend or two but I promise you will attract others who see and appreciate the light and love that you are.

Going along with mass thought, following the majority or the crowd will not make you happy. It is not only O.K. to use the road less traveled, the belief system less used, it is necessary. Each of you must carve your own path by following the urging of your heart. When you feel joy pour over you like a warm shower you are pursuing exactly what you need to do regardless of anyone else’s opinion or reaction.

Because you are individual, one of a kind, there is no single plan, no one way for gaining those experiences and that education for which you came to earth, for which you incarnated to be here at this particular time in the planet’s evolution. “One size” does not now and never will “fit all”.

Do you have day dreams or night visions that tug at your heart, dreams that beg you to follow them? Do not let them get away for lack of your attention. Write down your desires. Maybe you feel they are impossible or impractical but do not let them get away.

If your dreams are important enough to stir your soul, imagination and emotion, they are important enough to keep. Those dreams can be Spirit’s way of giving you directions, allowing you to attain resonance with your soul. What does not work today may well work tomorrow. Just acknowledging the desires of your heart can magnetize your personal energy to draw others to help you. Writing those heartfelt desires in a journal brings them energy and life.

As a psychic, I offer Dream Work as well as Intuitive

Development classes from time to time. I design all of those classes to be as much fun and games as possible simply because people seem to learn much faster in that kind of format. Why study dreams? Why push toward intuitive development? Because if you become more aware of the inner essence or truth of what is happening within you and around you, you can make more life affirming choices.

I believe too many of us go through life holding back our words and thoughts for fear of offending someone with our beliefs or saying something too “far out.” Much to my daughter’s embarrassment, I have a habit of striking up a conversation about anything most anywhere. One night when we were entertaining I asked our guests “Have any of you ever seen a U.F.O.?” I could almost feel my daughter sink into the carpet. But that question started a very lively and interesting conversation.

Let me tell you about my trip to Walmart the other day. This story has nothing to do with guides, angels and masters or even the meaning of life but here it is anyway. I had just walked in the back door of Walmart when I noticed this little curly haired older lady with an empty shopping cart. She was leaning just a bit on a small cane. Without meaning to I began to laugh so hard I nearly turned inside out.

Naturally she turned to look at me. I touched her lightly on one shoulder and said “I just can’t help it. I got the funniest idea in my mind that I was going to grab your cart and run down the aisle with you chasing me. I would never do such a thing and I can’t imagine why I even thought it! I must be tired to get so silly.” By that time we were both laughing till people began to stare. She said, “Worse than that, I wouldn’t have been able to catch you!”

I like to think that both of us felt a little lighter after all that fun. I smile every time I think about it. We tend to take everything in life so seriously that once in a while we just need a little comic relief.

To some degree all of us are the product of those “rights and wrongs” we learned in childhood. Our parents with their beliefs and understanding did the best they could to guide us but as adults we need to look carefully at those early rules and judgments that may no longer serve us. We need to acknowledge something as basic as it is alright to talk to strangers.

In still another realm of influence we may be tempted to “fall in line” with our friends or co-workers ideas of what is right for us when what we really need is to learn to listen to our soul’s directions.

To illustrate our tendency to do the so called right or expected thing, let me tell you about my cat Festus. I had just moved with my adopted alley cat, Festus, to a new home in Austin, Texas. I was worried that he would become disoriented in the neighborhood so I bought a little harness and attached him with a chain on the patio under the shade of the roof. I intended to keep him tied for maybe three days until he could understand that this was his new home.

All went well for a couple of days. I kept him fed, watered and shaded. Then on day number three I came out to pet him and there was no Festus, just a harness and a chain. I immediately started searching the neighborhood and spotted him a few blocks down the street. When I called to him he ran the opposite direction. I thought that was the end of that.

However, when I got back to the house there he was, sitting right beside his harness and chain pretending he was still attached. How smart are animals? I have to wonder though if his behavior wasn’t akin to something we do. We break away from some of the old learned behaviors that no longer fit and then, out of comfort or familiarity, we go right back.

Perhaps unconsciously, we feel the need to conform to the patterns that our family or friends have created for us. Most folks have a tendency to resist change. Those people we are close to may be more content with their perceptions of us if we are willing to be predictable. They may be happier if what they have decided to be true about us remains static. In many cases, they prefer it if we will stay in the little identity box they have created for us.

Is it any wonder that we tend to have communication challenges with our relationships when we understand things so differently? Working with your own intuition, sharpening your inner awareness can be a communication tool and blessing. Strengthened intuition absolutely will improve your understanding of others in your life, but equally important, it will help you to understand your own actions and motivations.

I am reminded of one of the Carlos Castaneda books. In it his mentor and teacher, Don Juan, tells Carlos, “You must lose your personal history.” Carlos says he can’t do that. He has earned this degree, he has had this experience. But Don Juan insists, telling him he has to be who he is today, this minute.

I believe that is what each of us must do. Yes, our past has brought us to this day, our current level of understanding, but we cannot live from or in the past. We need to be the new “this minute” us, this “now” us with all our new ideas, understanding and concepts.  It is definitely o.k. to be different! It is right that you and only you should select your current path and ideas.

Embrace change. Welcome it in your life. It is only through change that you can move forward. Look at your own life from a different point of view. Ask yourself questions! Who or what is center stage in your life today? Is there reciprocity in this situation or are you bleeding away all your energy. Does this activity or relationship fill you with joy or emptiness?

Sometimes that which was on center stage in your life needs to be loved from a distance or moved to the curb!

Each of you has a soul that is always prompting you to move forward, to accomplish. It urges you from your heart to be as much as you can be, to use your special gifts and talents.

Listen to that warm, urging heart emotion. If you are able to perceive that heart and soul wisdom with greater understanding and give it your full attention, you will find the way to access a more fulfilling joy and flow in your life.

How can you know if you are on your LIFE PATH? I have the question so many times in my work as a counselor. Fortunately, you have been given the measuring stick or tool to use for just such a question. When the path your are on, the work you are doing is so much a part of you that minutes and hours spent in that endeavor mean nothing, you have found it. When you never bother to look at a clock because you are doing what you love, you are on your path. When your heart sings and your spirit soars, you have found IT!

Being your authentic self, finding your way to your special destination may not happen in an instant. No matter how long it takes, your dedication to the journey will be an inspiration to others. Each step along the way is a learning experience.

Develop the gifts and the talents that you have. Work with those occupations or goals that draw you in and will not let you go. No one person can decide for you what your life is about. Not your closest friend, not your parents, not your spouse can ever know the intimate details of what makes you special.

Be proud of your individuality and make the best use of it. You are important to this earth and all of her inhabitants. No one can make the contribution you came here to make. Believe in yourself and step forward with confidence.

I am always ready to help you with any of your life challenges and questions. Call today for your private counseling appointment. I welcome you to my Sarasota, Florida studio or to a telephone session. In either case I will give you a cassette tape of your reading for your later review. Be sure to ask about chakra clearings with sound, color and crystals and private intuitive development lessons.

Every day life flows much more smoothly when you are able to access your personal intuition for big and small decisions alike. Knowing what will work to resolve a challenge and what will result in an unpleasant stumbling block makes all the difference.

Each one of us is born with the ability to “tune in” to situations and people. The difference is that some of us have brought that ability forward, worked with it and encouraged its growth.

If you are reading this I believe you are a person who is motivated to fully actualize your own life. In fact you most likely sense that you have a particular life path that is uniquely your own.

I encourage you to contact me for an individually designed four-part series of Personalized Intuitive Development. I bring my 30+ years of experience in psychic counseling, teaching and investigation to serve your needs and goals.

The four sessions are given by me, one lesson each week, over the period of a month in my Sarasota Florida studio. The instruction is completely private and confidential. Each lesson is constructed to meet your personal desires and talents.

Yes, every ‘little’ activity you engage in, every ‘little’ thing you do you have the power to expand with energy and intent to serve ‘double duty’.

Suppose it is time for exercise. For your body’s sake you go outdoors for a walk or jog. Instead of plugging your ears with your earphones to listen to your personal music mix, try hearing all the various sounds and seeing all the diverse sights of nature.

Immerse yourself in the life essence of birds, trees and flowers. Hear the crickets; see the dew on the leaves. Do you sense a misty aura of life around all things? Bring yourself to focus on the now moment. Mother Earth gladly sends you healing of mind, body and spirit if you care to absorb it.

Being at peace in nature can allow you to access your highest creativity. New ideas and better ways of living begin to flow in with ease. Inspiration is everywhere. As action is called for it takes on a new grace and purpose.

Do you prepare meals for yourself or friends? In the midst of all that chopping, cooking and arranging where are your thoughts? Are you adding special life enhancing energies to the food and the kitchen? If not, why not?

You have access to all the energy you could ever need. Use that ability of yours to channel energy into the most positive vibrations for yourself and others. The rewards may very well surprise you.

A simple thing like taking a morning or evening shower or tub bath can be much more than physical cleaning. Bless the water. Put your mind on the power of the water. See it refreshing your total energy.

Think of the water as removing all miss-qualified energies of your own or those unwanted attachments that you might have accumulated. Know that as that water leaves you, winding its way down the drain and making its way back to the earth, it will be recycled and refreshed.

I recall a dear friend of mine, a Unity Minister in Illinois, used this principle of ‘double duty’ very well! It was back in the days when as housewives we actually ironed husbands’ shirts. I think now everything is wash and wear.

Anyhow, when my friend Dona would iron her husband’s shirts (a job she really did not like) she would see his back, shoulders and arms filled with fresh energy and healing to carry him through the day. What a gift to someone she loved.

If you begin really paying attention to each activity through your day I am certain you will come upon a number of new ideas to turn ‘little’ things into meaningful adventures in Spirit.

You want to live your life fully following your personal path. Because that is true you may have questions about some of your life challenges. My work is bringing answers from your personal guides, teachers and angels to help you actualize your life in depth.

Call today for your personal and confidential psychic reading appointment. I will help you in my Florida studio or by telephone. Do inquire about my 4-part private intuitive lessons. I am Reverend Lois Cheney, RevLois@gmail.com or (941)961-2783

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.

Do not let anything stand in the way of your spiritual progress. If you have built personal walls of limitation take them down! Push them away. Blow them up. See them crumble.

You have all the talent, the creativity and the energy you need to turn any of your personally manifested limitations into teaching tools pointing the way to the higher more evolved you. The energies emanating from your heart and soul long for your personal success but they stand back waiting to help you, wanting you to ask.

Ask for love’s wisdom from the depths of your heart. Ask your soul for your next step. Let them know you are eager to listen. Call to your angels. Ask for your personal guides and teachers to help.

When you have asked then it is up to you to be aware of the sign posts that appear in your everyday life. These happenings are your answers. If you visit the library or the bookstore, know that you can call for that particular book or journal to attract you. When your energy is high and calling, that special book can literally fall off the shelf into your hands.

Sharpen your awareness of your surroundings. Just a word or a sentence that you overhear at the lunch counter maybe the answer you have prayed for. Listen to your hunches, your intuition. Spirit whispers, she doesn’t shout.

One of the most valuable ways to clear and clean your own path is to fully invest yourself in a daily practice of gratitude. Don’t spend a minute telling yourself what you don’t have. Instead be gentle with yourself. Tell yourself how blessed you are. Tell yourself what you do have. Tell yourself what you intend for your life. Thank yourself for your inner awareness.

THANK YOURSELF FOR RECOGNIZING AND USING YOUR OWN GOD GIVEN ABILITIES.

Be thankful for every dear and generous friend. Be particularly grateful for every prickly acquaintance or stranger that grates on your nerves. They are all valuable! Be grateful that both kinds of people cause you to look at your own attitudes and ideas.

Learn from every situation you encounter. Bless the times you missed the mark as well as the times you were on target. If you are willing to express your gratitude for the lessons learned, I cannot promise you that the lessons will get easier. I can promise you however that you will experience greater and more far reaching success in all your efforts.

It is said we learn from our mistakes. I take issue with that. I firmly believe we learn from our successes. We learn from the times we got it right and gave ourselves the proverbial gold star.

When your energy falls, when you need confidence, self assurance in your abilities, it is the winning times you need to remember and amplify. Each of you can succeed. You have the creativity and the talent to fulfill your life’s path. With the help of your indwelling “I AM” you can go far beyond your limited human ideas of success.
No one moves through this earth experience alone. Today see everything, every situation, every person with new eyes. Begin to earnestly strive for non-judgment and compassion for others and for yourself. Understand that all life is working to evolve to rise higher. The paths to that evolution may differ but the goal is the same.

I received a wonderful thank-you gift in my e-mail the other day. It was from a long time client of mine. He sent me an entry in his journal detailing his long awaited success with direct channeling of Spirit. I was so excited for him. I thanked him for thinking of me. I thanked him for being so persistent in his efforts.

He was personally so grateful to make one more step forward. I feel that his success, combined with his loving attitude will lift the energies of everyone he touches.

Do give yourself the love that you wish from others. If you see yourself being harshly critical of your own efforts, stop. As you become more loving and gentle with yourself and simply make corrections to your so-called mistakes, you will experience more love and generosity in your life from others. You will be a magnet for happier more loving experiences.

Know that your thankfulness for your life, your feelings of love and appreciation create a ripple effect wherever you go whomever you touch. Knowing that, begin to thank those people who bless you and your family. In your times of stillness thank yourself for speaking the words of Soul and Spirit in all your relationships.

You want to manifest your highest desires. Spirit is longing to express itself through you. You invite your heart and soul wisdom for input. You earnestly try to send the right kind and amount of energy. You expect results. All of that is a good thing.

The one difficulty with expectations is that you sometimes become very fixed in what you insist upon for an outcome. In being so exacting in the form of your intentions and their timing, you can block a much better, more satisfying result.

Spirit knows the most beneficial form of your creation and the optimum timing of its arrival. When you do not allow flexibility in either form or timing you may lose the best result.

Nothing that any of us plan to do, no action that we take, can be accomplished in a vacuum. In other words every action we initiate has a ripple effect. Each result we create with our intentions and our energy touches others in some way.

If you can be more open to variations in your desired creation, you will allow the highest and best not only for yourself but for those people who will be blessed by your manifestation as well.

As separate as each of us may feel from time to time, the truth is we are not alone. We are irrevocably joined with the earth and all life. This joining is the reason we need to ask always for “this or something better to bless all those concerned.” Or as the Buddhists might say “intend no harm”.

You have incarnated here on earth at a highly energized time. It is a time of great volatility but also great progress. Your life path is vitally important as you work with all other light workers to energize this period of ascension. You like all of us deeply desire to fulfill your personal purpose as well as your cosmic one.

If I can help you in any way to access your life goals through the channeling of your personal guides and teachers, call for your private appointment. All reading sessions are completely confidential and will be recorded for you. I will meet with you either in my Florida studio or by telephone.

Ordained by Angel Ministries, I am Reverend Lois Cheney, psychic, clairvoyant and lecturer. (941) 961-2783 or E-mail: RevLois@gmail.com.

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.

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.

April is almost here and it is Convention time! The 24th Annual Dowsing and Healing Energies Convention in Fayetteville, Arkansas, is April 24th through the 28th. The convention is sponsored by the Ozark Research Institute where I have been a member for some years.

I am so excited about the convention in Fayetteville for a number of reasons. I am looking forward to seeing many of my old friends as well as making interesting new ones. In fact people attend the convention from a number of countries around the world as well as from the United States. They come from a myriad of backgrounds and practices bringing enormous enthusiasm with them.

It is the diversity of offerings at the convention that make it so stimulating. The wide range of practices and systems that are offered are mind expanding!

Oh, the choices! Here are just a few: Bach Flower Remedies, Dream Interpretation, Heal Your Life, Numerology and Kabbalah, Bend Spoons and See Auras, Using Vision Boards, Palmistry, and, of course my own: Using the Road Less Traveled is NOT Taking a Detour!

Guaranteed: there are no two presenters or no two presentations alike. Attending is always a learning experience.

I am happily anticipating my own time lecturing on Saturday, April, 25th, and Monday, the 27th. I will be offering ways to involve more deeply in your own life path by developing your personal extra sensory perception. I feel a strong desire to get more people interested in their own intuitive development. If I can spark anyone’s interest in accessing and developing their natural abilities, I see that it adds so much to the quality and ease of life.

Through my counseling practice I have seen that one of the major challenges in our lives today is communication. We seem to have problems in our relationships simply because we continue to misunderstand the other person’s thoughts and point of view. Because we can’t totally know their past experiences or why they interpret our words the way they do, we find ourselves at odds.

It is in these interactions with others that our personal intuition can be a great tool. If we are able to understand another person’s feelings at a greater depth, if we are able to connect with them on a deeper level, so much misunderstanding can be circumvented.

If you cannot join me at the convention, let me offer you a private appointment time for your personal psychic consultation. I can help you in person at my study in Florida or over the telephone. I always provide a cassette recording of our work together for your later review. I also offer a series of four individually designed one-on-one intuitive development lesson at my studio.

I would love to help you. Call me today, Reverend Lois Cheney (941) 961-2783 or E-Mail: RevLois@gmail.com.
