Imagination and Healing

visualization

Why do we use our imaginations in healing so much? This was something that really struck me as different when I first started on this path. I didn't quite understand the reasoning behind it. These days I use imagination and visualization in my daily meditations as a sure tool of peace and connection without even thinking about it. My first visualizations were in my Reiki 1 class, when we visualized our chakras, and later did a guided meditation to meet our spirit guides. I wondered whether I just making all of it up. I remember thinking, "ok so I just imagined meeting my spirit guides, did that mean I really met them?" It seemed strange and different. After many years of being on this path, I've come to...

healing, meditation, practices

As the weeks of the shutdown amass and the days blend together, I'm reminded this morning of the importance of sacred practices to connect to love, God, and peace. They are beacons of light. Your sacred practices do not have to be the same ones you preferred last year. They do not have to be the same ones your friends do. They can be the ones that best fit you and your heart. How will you know if it's a sacred practice? It will remind you of the love that you come from and the love that you are. It will have a quality of ineffability, and it will bring you some amount of peace. It's easy to put a practice on the back burner when life...

The Soul Space

Coronavirus, healing, soul

Sending greetings from this new normal of pandemic life. It's definitely a different world to adjust to. Everything in my life has become very small: small orbit, small income, small child. We have spent a lot of time in our yard and walking around the neighborhood, taking many things very slowly. How are you? How have you and yours been faring? I know many lives have been changed in different ways and I hope you've been safe, healthy, and cared for. I've been thinking a lot this week about what it's like to live within the soul space. There are times in my life when I've been there, and many times when I haven't. When I'm living in my soul space I feel very light, joyful, and...

Living Love in the Time of Coronavirus

Coronavirus

This past week has been scary at times, and I've seen the power of the collective to sow and create fear. I've also seen the beauty, love, and true generosity that is possible when humans come together for the good of all. I've been dancing between the two, and working on making choices that bring me closer to the beautiful experiences of love that are possible at this time. I've been relishing this time I have with my daughter. She always asks me to stay home with her, and she's gotten her wish. Yesterday while eating dinner she said, "I wish summer could last forever." We've played in the yard, gone on walks, made crafts and cookies, and started learning the piano. It's been a pure...

Peace in the Face of Fear

Coronavirus, Health

My past week has been inundated with stories and worries about Coronavirus. It's a scary situation and I've definitely binged on reading and listening to news about it. It's ok to go down those paths, and I have, but eventually that gets exhausting. I can feel a dip in my energy and in my sense of peace. When I start to notice that I'm getting off balance, I spend time getting centered in my heart, clearing my mind, and connecting to Source. Some ways I do this in practice include: self-Reiki this chakra clearing meditation from Suzanne Giesemann (scroll to Ten Minute Transformation) limiting exposure to media spending time with supportive friends and family reading uplifting and fun books and of course, making necessary preparations According to...

Good Grief

grief

I've missed the last few weeks posting due to an unexpected death in my family. My stepmom, whom I, my sister, and father adored, passed away unexpectedly in her sleep two weeks ago. She was only 64 years old and had had a bout of the flu. My dad found her in the morning as he was waking her up to take her to the doctor. It's been a lot to adjust to, even with all of the spiritual work I've done and my knowledge that death is not the end of the soul. I still miss her, and my father has understandably been distraught. When I attended the mediumship training, I did so because of an inner tug to be there. At the time I had...

gifts

Each of us is born with unique gifts that make us who we are. Your gifts could include an ability to listen well, a great sense of humor, helping others, being good with money, or many many more. While your gifts are remarkable just as they are, all of us benefit when you use your gifts to help humanity. It's like a key in a lock that opens a door to shared peace and growth. You may already know what your unique gifts are. You may still be searching. In a world of social media and hype, it can seem like everyone else has amazing gifts, while you do not. I've felt that way, at least! One way to learn what your gifts are is to see...

Inner vs. Outer Worlds

healing, heart, honoring your truth

One of my greatest coping mechanisms after my trauma was learning how to seem "okay" and even "successful" in my outer world as my inner world spun out of control. The technique helped me stop getting in trouble with my family, and helped me feel in control of my life. For a long time I even believed that I was okay because I had it all together on the outside. How wrong I was! I learned that lesson when my outer world stopped working for me. My heart kept calling out to me to heal beneath my successes through forms such as anxiety, insomnia, and depression. Friends from that time in my life might not have noticed, and I wonder if many of them may have...

Trusting your Heart

heart

Our hearts are the inner compasses that guide our lives. They are our connection to Source. When we heed our hearts' wishes, we honor our truest selves. We may choose to ignore it, especially when its yearnings seem hard or not in keeping with our ego's wishes, but we will eventually return to it. When we honor our hearts, we step into our truest natures. Following the thread of my heart led me to my greatest healing. By getting still and quiet, I learned my heart's wishes. It also eventually led to my experience of the Divine. In the beginning, honoring my heart was a joyful exercise. I was happy to have found a connection to my truest self after being so disconnected. While connecting to my...

dreams

I'm late getting this blog post up today! I slept later than usual this morning thanks to several wake-ups by my daughter last night, and by the time I woke up it was time to begin the day. This is the first quiet moment I've had since, and it's after 9 pm. Such is life. As grateful as I am for my full life, these quiet moments to write keep me whole. I wanted to write tonight about the beauty and power of dreams in the healing process. Though I am not certified in dreamwork and I haven't taken any courses in it, I've experienced for myself the ability that dreams have to change our lives if we pay attention to them. Many times along my path...
