Do You Enjoy Your Work?

Image
  “Go ahead and do what you really love to do! Do nothing else! You have so little time. How can you think of wasting a moment doing something for a living you don’t like to do? What kind of a living is that? That is not a living, that is a dying!” ~ Neale Donald Walsh I asked myself today, "Do I like my job?" My answer was "No". Then I asked myself, "What do I enjoy doing?" My first thought was "Singing". Oh how I love to sing! Always have. Then I considered how I could not make a good living singing. I always think that. I probably could make a decent living as a singer, but I have defeated myself on that dream. It is a dead dream. I didn't want to focus on a dead dream, so I wondered, "What is it about singing that I like?" I knew it was the attention; the feeling I get from my audience when I am singing. First of all, everyone is listening and looking at Me . That is a wonderfully uplifting and validating feel

Evaluating the Past

Image
In the last few weeks I have been drawn to explore my past, specifically parts of my life that I have thought little about in the last four years. It all started a few weeks ago when I received four requests for mediumship in the span of two days. When I sat down to connect with Spirit, I found myself struggling to connect and when I did connect it was difficult to get information. Something felt off , but I couldn't put my finger on it. I went ahead and sent out all of the readings via email and waited for responses. In the end, three of the four people who requested mediumship responded that the mediumship reading I gave them was inaccurate, specifically that those in Spirit who came through to me for them were unrecognizable. I was devastated. In my ten years of giving mediumship readings I have only rarely been wrong (maybe 5% of the time) and only occasionally not been able to connect to Spirit (this has happened 3 times total). To have three out of four mediumship readin

Messages From Beyond

Last night I had a conversation that reminded me of just how persistent and resourceful Spirit is. A friend and I were talking about an issue she has been plagued with for many years. Her father passed away from an illness and she had promised him she would be there by his side so he would not be alone. Her father had always told her he wanted the death of a Shaman and she had agreed to help him achieve that but had been unable to get the hospital to release him so that he could pass away peacefully at home. One day, she had left his bedside in the hospital and gone down the hall with her husband when she felt him leave his body. In a panic, she rushed back to his bedside only to find that he had indeed already crossed over. Her grief at losing him was overwhelming but her guilt for not being there when he passed was more intense than any other emotion involved in his death. She felt she was a bad person for not being there for her father, so much so that she had convinced herself

What is a Spiritual Awakening?

Image
I often am asked this question whenever the topic of my spiritual gifts and abilities comes up in conversations with friends, family and acquaintances. Some don't even bother asking the question for worry of feeling they will look stupid, assuming they should already know what a spiritual awakening is, but this is not true. I did not know what a spiritual awakening was even when it was happening to me! According to  wikipedia , "a spiritual awakening usually involves a realization or opening to a sacred dimension of reality and may or may not be a religious experience. Often a spiritual awakening has lasting effects upon one's life. The term "spiritual awakening" may be used to refer to any of a wide range of experiences including being born again , near-death experiences , and mystical experiences such as liberation and enlightenment ". I chose to use this definition because it fits what I experienced. I find that most people I encounter define

Creating a Dream Board

Image
I have been making dream boards to assist me in manifesting the things I want in life since 2006. A friend of mine introduced me to the book The Secret and it inspired me to create my own dream board and see if it worked. Well it did! I got everything I put on the board within the time frame specified. I took some time off of making anymore dream boards since I was a bit overwhelmed by how well mine worked and needed some time to adjust to all the change it brought into my life. When I was ready, last year I created another one, this time in conjunction with my husband. That board expired this month, exactly a year from its conception. When I reviewed all the goals on it, most of mine did not come true but all but one of my husband's did! So, I learned a valuable lesson - don't make a dream board in conjunction with another person! This time I will make my own and have him make his own. I believe that the reason all of his goals/dreams came to fruition is because I tend to p
