3-2-1-Relax! During the Holidays… With Hypnosis!

Hypnosis, simply put, is a relaxed and focused state of mind. Most people can learn to enter this state of deep relaxation and purposefully focused attention easily and safely in just a few sessions with the help of a trained professional hypnotherapist like Dr. Shanimah Ra. After following my instructions and learning simple techniques, most clients can induce a self-hypnotic state. Unlike alcohol or drugs, hypnosis can be used anytime and anywhere. All that it requires is an opportunity to relax for a few minutes. You can practice self-hypnosis while gazing out an office window or sitting in a quiet corner of the office break-room. With persistence and perseverance, you can learn to be calm and relaxed in the most crowded and noisy of situations.


By quieting down the body and mind in a trance state, a chain of physiological responses commence such as hormonal changes and improved immune system function. Hypnotic states reduce the effects of stress on the body by preventing the ‘flight or fight’ response, which relaxes muscle tension, as well as lowering heart rate and reducing blood pressure. Additionally, these changes stimulate other positive changes such as decreased production of stress hormones and an increase of protective T-cell production within your immune system.

Since the 1970s, increased scientific research indicates that hypnosis, as well as other ‘mind/body’ therapies such as biofeedback and meditation, is an effective and successful option in treatment of illness where stress is a major factor. While not meant to take the place of traditional medical care, hypnosis acts as a useful and efficient adjunct therapy – one that is not only effective, but enjoyable as well. A major study at Duke University in North Carolina showed that practicing relaxation resulted in reduced hypertension and reduced blood sugar levels in test patients. Another study discovered that the regular practice of hypnosis could increase the success rates of in-vitro fertilization procedures.

The myth that someone can ‘take over’ your mind or influence your thoughts without your consent has been scientifically dispelled. When you request a hypnotherapy session, you are aware at all times of the suggestions that I offer. Your mind will automatically and instinctually reject any suggestions that conflict with your personal values and beliefs. I work closely with my clients to develop suggestions and imageries that are specifically tailored to your needs and desires.

Continuing research clearly illustrates the effectiveness of hypnosis for stress reduction and its accompanying health benefits. Wouldn’t you like to experience the advantages of hypnosis today?

HOLIDAYS STRESSING YOU OUT? 3-2-1 RELAX WITH HYPNOSIS!

A client (we’ll call him Joe Black), used to down two scotch and waters before dinner every night just to relax enough to make the transition from work to home life. But after dinner, he would be so relaxed he’d nod off while reading the paper and find himself unable to go to sleep upon retiring to bed. He did not want to take drugs or chemicals that might harm his body and mind, but he desperately needed to unwind after a stressful workday as a management executive and was seeking an alternative to ‘social drinking’ when he talked to a friend that recommended hypnotherapy.

After Mr. Black came to me for a session, he learned to take fifteen to twenty minute ‘transition breaks’. He finds a quiet, solitary spot, such as his den or bedroom. He turns off the lights and his cell and phone. He sets his iPod on soft, instrumental music. He changes into some comfortable clothes and stretches out on his bed or recliner.

As the music begins to soothe his nerves, Mr. Black begins to think of his ‘safe place’, a mental haven where he has learned to go to release the stresses of the outer world.

Here in the inner sanctuary of his own mind and heart, Mr. Black is in complete control. He can visit any one of his favourite locations – a stretch of warm, white sugar sand on an uninhabited beach, or a sunny meadow beside a cool pine forest with a gently gurgling brook flowing through it.

Wherever he is, Mr. Black knows he is safe, comfortable, and in complete control with no one asking anything of him or wanting anything from him. For these few moments, there is no place else he needs to go and nothing else he needs to do. Here, in his inner sanctuary, Mr. Black can and does imagine himself as he chooses to be – healthy, happy, relaxed – at peace with himself and everyone around him.

If Mr. Black experiences any problems or difficulties at work during the day, he wraps them up in brown paper, ties the package with string, puts them in a brightly coloured hot air balloon and watches them gently float away. He releases them, knowing they will be taken care of in the best possible way.

During this reverie, Mr. Black may take a dip in the ocean or even the gentle brook, cleansing both his mind and his body of all stress, tension, or any negative emotions may yet linger. He feels a restorative, healing energy take their place as he continues to enjoy a serene, relaxed state.

After about fifteen minutes, Mr. Black instinctively ends his journey of self-hypnosis and gradually returns his thoughts to the present. He reminds himself that he is back in his room feeling refreshed and revitalized, yet completely and fully relaxed, ready to enjoy his evening with his family.

The relaxed, good-natured Mr. Black who emerges from his room is a completely different person from the harried, stressed and sometimes short-tempered man who went in. Mr. Black’s family members, as well as Joe himself, are grateful that he has discovered hypnosis.

Mr. Black is just one of a growing number of people who find that hypnosis works for them as a successful, effective, non-drug alternative for stress reduction. With stress increasing as an ever-present part of the 21st century lifestyle, and the mounting evidence of the link between stress and illness – including such conditions such as hypertension, heart disease, ulcers, immune deficiencies, and cancer – hypnosis provides welcome relief with no side-effects.

HYPNOSIS HELPS YOU ACHIEVE YOUR GOALS QUICKLY!

Whatever your goals are, hypnosis can help you achieve them easily and rapidly. Many people do not realize the fantastic and immediate power of their subconscious mind. The causes of so many bad habits are rooted in memories or perceptions that are forgotten by the conscious mind, yet are retained in the subconscious. Hypnosis helps to access the subconscious mind and achieve the desired effect of change easily and quickly.


Unfortunately, many people refuse to consider hypnotherapy because of their erroneous fears and misconceptions. They may mistakenly believe that the hypnotherapist will control them, they will tell hidden secrets, or be made to do ridiculous actions. These false beliefs are often the result of Hollywood portrayals found in old vampire movies or cartoons on TV. These fears are completely unscientific and unfounded. The individual in trance is always in control and is, in fact, even more aware of his or her surroundings while in the hypnotic state.

Although hypnosis is not a panacea, there are many capacities where it has proven to be tremendously helpful. A few of these areas include memory enhancement, improving concentration, relieving insomnia, eliminating nail biting, reducing or eliminating stuttering, increasing sales, and sports achievements. However, the most common reasons for visiting a hypnotherapist are losing weight, quitting smoking, and managing stress.

Many overweight people who fail with diet programs turn to hypnosis as a safe and reliable alternative to drugs and surgery. For them, dieting never eliminated the subconscious need for excess food. It is just a form of torture they went through, until they eventually gave into their subconscious desires. So, they continuously went up and down on the scale, never really letting go of the desire for excess food.

The reasons for desiring excess food were anchored in a memory of some past emotional event that caused them to overeat for security, self-preservation, or protection. The memory of the event remained sealed in their subconscious, even as it was hidden from their waking awareness.

In a trance state, you can locate the event that triggered unwanted behaviour and change your perception about the event; thus eradicating it as a problem source. Once this is accomplished, the individual can eliminate the desire for excess food and the weight reduces easily, naturally, and stays off.

This same technique is effective for smoking cessation. Often, when an individual re-experiences the horrible experience of taking that first choking puff, and remembers the events that caused them to continue smoking, the habit is easily eliminated.

Phobias such as unreasonable fears of water, flying, driving, and claustrophobia can be easily tamed using this and similar techniques. This can frequently be accomplished in two to three sessions.

“What the mind causes, the mind can cure. Wellness begins in the mind!” Every problem has a cause, and when you eliminate the cause from the computer that we call the subconscious mind, the problem disappears.

A Cure for Test Taking Jitters

• Do you freeze when you sit for an exam?

• Does your mind go blank when you look at a test sheet?

The decision to turn a life-long interest into a career in massage therapy seemed only natural to Bob (not his real name). Bob had always worked well with his hands and all his friends said that Bob gave the best back rubs around.

Yet, once in massage therapy school, Bob’s dream became a nightmare. As his courses progressed, Bob found that the large amount of memorization required to pass the test was becoming more and more challenging for him. He saw his dream slipping away as he fought harder to master the material while his grades were increasingly dropping. He knew he had to do something fast.

Bob’s friend, also a massage therapist, shared an office with a hypnotherapist. He suggested that Bob try hypnosis for test taking anxiety. Bob agreed to give it a try.

Bob didn’t know what to expect during his first visit but the hypnotherapist quickly put him at ease and explained the process of hypnotic suggestion. Dr. Ra answered all his questions and put to rest any concerns that he had about ‘losing control’. She told him that he would, in fact, be in control of the process at all times. She explained that she would simply help him to obtain a state of deep relaxation from which he could arouse himself at any time, if necessary.

While in this expanded state of awareness, Bob’s innermost, subconscious mind would be more available to listen and accept any suggestions or ideas that he perceived to be useful or helpful. His mind would automatically reject any suggestions that went against his own personal values and beliefs.

Relaxing in a recliner, Bob quickly entered a state of light, alpha hypnosis while listening to the soothing voice of the hypnotherapist instructing him to release tension from every part of his body, bit by bit. After a few more minutes of deep relaxation, Bob was ready to receive suggestions that would help end his problems with memorization and test anxiety.

Dr. Ra had Bob mentally visualize himself in his study area, picturing his desk, books, papers and even any beverages he would normally have on hand to drink. Once fully there in the scene, Dr. Ra had Bob mentally review his study habits, suggesting that his mind would be relaxed, receptive and that he would remember fully and easily any information that he read or studied.

As Bob re-experienced each phase of his study routine in trance – reading over notes, repeating information out loud, even taking rest breaks – Dr. Ra continued to suggest that he was fully retaining all the information easily and effortlessly.

Dr. Ra further instructed Bob that when a question about the material that he was studying was put to him, either verbally or on a written test, him mind would immediately bring the information up to a conscious level, making it instantly available for full recall.

Bob was instructed to feel himself in class, taking a test. He was advised to see himself relaxed, confident, and feeling great. He was to image himself confidently answering test questions while visualizing a study period in which he had full and easy recall of the test material. He was reminded to remain relaxed, confident and assured of his success.

After fully visualizing himself confidently taking the test, Bob was instructed to see himself later receiving notice of his test results, he was directed to feel the excitement and sense of good self-esteem that came from scoring well on the test. He was asked to hear the positive comments of his teacher and the congratulations from his friends.

Once Bob had fully visualized his success, he was more certain about his ability to make his dream a reality. With a few follow-up visits and instructions for self-hypnosis reinforcement, Bob soon accomplished his goals.

Bob’s dream really did come true after all. He graduated as one of the top students of his massage therapy class, thanks to a little help – and some good advice about the benefits of hypnosis – from his friends.

If you or someone you know suffers from test-taking anxiety or trouble with studying and memorization, hypnosis might be the answer.

CHANGING UNIVERSE

10/17/2011
The Universe is changing rapidly. It is not only our world, but according to prophecy, the changes that we are moving through on this planet are also happening and affecting other solar systems and galaxies.


Surprisingly, many people have asked me recently about the upcoming 2012 shift; Do I think that we are going to be wiped out? Hollywood has taken information and spectacularized it, of course. That is their paradigm, their view of the method to make the most money from movies. It does not make what they portray true… unless you believe it and bring it into your personal world. Remember, there was too much hype about the turn of the century and there were no major catastrophes as we moved from December 31, 1999 to January 1, 2000.

My visions have shown me a time when things were moving smoothly; the period between the Korean and Vietnam wars. After that, things get rough as we have seen and felt. We kept overindulging while we tried to ignore the signs of stress on our bodies and the environment – the body of our Mother Earth.

At this point, we can no longer be ignorant about anything. We must activate and use our quantum consciousness with meditation, prayer, and conscious living. This means making decisions based upon a connection with your Higher Power. You can still choose to behave however you want; you just must know that you are the determiner of the outcomes of your choices.

The visions of an even brighter future await. After the (apparent) devastation, the earth emerges more beautiful and radiant than ever before, just like a newborn babe. This is because we can choose it to be so. Personally, I choose to embrace peace. I believe that the catastrophic events we are witnessing are the labor pains that are birthing a beautiful new plan of peace, forgiveness, abundance, light, and love – Most of all, love.

I believe that Infinite Angels are watching over us, gridding the earth in a protective shield that diffuses the energies so that we are not destroyed or destroy ourselves. I believe that this is part of God’s plan to help us learn how powerful we are as children of God. The Angels are part of our team, our shields and our light. Allow yourself to enter a meditative state. Be grateful and call upon them, praying ceaselessly.

Infinite Blessings from your Infinite Angels.

LEADERS

Are you a Leader? Being a leader encompasses many different facets. A leader doesn’t say, “My way or the highway.” A leader says, “How can we do this better together.” A leader says, “I’ll go first,” rather than, “Follow me.” Many times, a leader says nothing. This is one of the best kinds of leaders, one who leads by example.

Most people want all of the attention, glory, and praise that a leader gets, but they do not want to do the work or own the responsibility. Many organizations and institutions (such as government) have created schemes and processes that perpetuate the dependence of the populace upon the systems. This is unnatural and so the systems break down because they actually repress our independence to make us dependent on the system.

It is at that point that individuals might want to stand up and think for themselves to take care of themselves. There are many ways of regaining our real freedom to think, pray, and do for ourselves that do not rely on systems, organizations, or government, and that are legal, ethical, and moral. This is freedom of the soul.

You can plant a garden. Even if you only have one tomato plant in a pot on your window sill, at least it is yours and you can nurture it and see that it is good. You can use your free time to clean up your neighborhood, pick up broken glass so that the children do not cut themselves, and pick up rotting garbage so the insects don’t breed. That does not even cost you money.

It is the little things you do that make you a leader; it is the things you do that you do not wait for someone else to do for you that are moral, upright, and helpful. It is a path that you can start on today or move farther along. It is how you create a beautiful world around you - your beautiful world where all is well.

Once you make that decision, Infinite Angels will surround you and move through you to assist. You will find your world getting better and better because others will see you. You will become a leader by example.

YOU ARE VALUABLE

You are of inestimable value. You are a treasure of the Universe. Just by your presence on our lovely planet, Earth, you have value, purpose, and worth. You just need to remember this.

You need to remember, not because I or someone else has told you so, but because it is a truth in your soul. We all need to connect with our Higher-self on the soul plane. And, rather that attempting to escape this plane of Earth, we need to bring our soul energy into our daily lives, now.

With the beginning of the industrial age, we began to lose the connection of soul, of spirit. By focusing so much upon the physical, we lost sight of the non-physical. We began to pay more attention to that which we could make with our hands and less and less attention to what we could co-create with spirit.

We are coming to a point in our human evolution that will represent a crossroads. We can either get back into balance with nature and our spiritual selves or perish, literally, by our own hands – all that we have created that is now out of harmony.
The good news is that there is more spiritual help available now than ever before.

The Angels are everywhere, ready and willing to assist us in connecting with Spirit and our soul-self. You can do this wherever you are and at any time of the day or night. You can do this in a crowded subway train. Just close your eyes for a brief moment, breathe in deeply and mentally ask Archangel Michael, your Guardians, and Guides, or any Angel to help you connect to your Higher-self and your soul, which is basically one in the same.

As you breathe out and open your eyes, notice the difference in the energy surrounding you. Feel ten thousand Angels to your right; feel ten thousand angels to your left; feel ten thousand angels in front of you and behind you, ten thousand angels above you and also below you. As you move gently through your day, feel confident that you are surrounded by an infinite, uncountable number of angels that watch over you and stand ready to assist your every need with love and grace.

WE ARE ONE

We all are searching for something. It is the process of evolution. I have studied and searched almost all of my life, from the time that I was two years old for that which I could not see or hear or touch, but that I know is there. I never quit searching.

Although I am very intuitive and psychically aware, it is only recently that I feel the shift inside that tells me that I have the answer – for me. You may know that already or you may feel that it is yet to come.

This was a very subtle shift – almost imperceptible, that I know that we are one. We are both the creator and created. We are in the middle of our thoughts, feelings, and desires. It is different to think about this intellectually; to say affirmations and wish peace for the world. It is quite another to know in your mind and body, in your heart and soul that we are one.

We are all thoughts creating more thoughts. We are consciousness (created by God) impressing upon the thinking stuff (created by God) of the Universe. If you impress good thoughts upon the thinking stuff; it responds back to you with good. If you impress anything else, that will come back to you as well. If you focus upon tragedy in the media, you will find more of that coming into your life. If you focus upon cancer awareness, you will find more and more friends and loved ones (or even yourself) with disease.

Conversely, if you focus upon health, wealth, and love, you will find more and more of that in your life. It behooves all of us to direct our focus and concentration toward what we want to bring into our lives and allow only the good into our thinking field. This does not mean that there will no longer be tragedy in the world, but there will no longer be so much tragedy in your personal world.

Ask your Infinite Angels to help you to learn to redirect your focus and concentrate upon the best in your life. You will soon find your life getting better and better!

FORGIVENESS

Often, when I am working with clients and their Angels to resolve conditions & situations that have become problematic for them, the issue of forgiveness arises.

We tend to think of forgiveness in terms of someone doing something to us now such as arguing with us or even physical assault. In these cases, we may or may not forgive. However, we need to let go of the issues & get on with our lives. The effects can still linger in the back of our mind, though.

There are many situations that we may have thought we forgave (or not) that still affect us such as childhood hurts & traumas. We do not think of these in our daily life because we need to be focused upon getting an education, earning a living, & caring for our families. Again, the effects are in our subconscious & can be the cause of many different problems or simply personality quirks.

A good practice that you can easily do each day is getting in touch with your feelings about anything that needs forgiveness in your life. You can start right where you are at in this moment. Think backwards & recollect any conditions or situations that you think may need to be forgiven. If it comes up in your consciousness, forgive it.

Your angels will assist you by presenting memories that require your attention. It can be important to forgive more than just the person or persons that you think hurt you. You will need to forgive yourself for being in that situation. You will need to forgive any other persons on the periphery of the situation that were witnesses to what happened to you. You will need to forgive the energy & the condition, itself, that hurt you.

The native Hawaiian practice of Ho’oponopono is a beautiful way to forgive. There are four things to declare with Ho’oponopono: 1. I love you; 2. I am sorry; 3. Please forgive me; 4. Thank you.
1. I love you – You are declaring that you love & that your love is stronger than anything that could possibly hurt you. You love you (for getting yourself into that mess), the person(s) that caused you pain (for being a part of your soul journey), the situation (because it made you stronger), & God (for loving you enough to give you free will to choose what you will experience).
2. I am sorry – You declare that you realize that the energy that was meant to help your soul evolve has done its job & you can now release & resolve the issue(s) that are bothering you.
3. Please forgive me – You are willing to let go & move on.
4. Thank you – you are willing to accept the gift of being a stronger, powerful person with expanded consciousness.

This is a process that is best done in a meditative state, but you can practice all day long as little things arise that get your attention or bother you. You can use it to help you overcome unwanted habits or to boost your motivation. Most of all, it can help you to uncover subconscious issues that you are ready to resolve & release.

Your Infinite Angels will assist you to discover the issues that are appropriate for you to address now. Remember to seek the assistance of a professional – medical or psychiatric, if you feel the need.

INTUITION

Intuition is about taking action. Over the years, many people have told me that they do not have insight or intuition. Everyone has this capacity; they are just unaware of it or have repressed it for so long that it has become like an unused muscle that has atrophied from non-use.

Everyone has intuition. Animals have this capacity. In animals, we call it instinct. Animals live in the moment. They can instantly assess a situation and take immediate action. This is the key – taking action. If you do not take action, your intuition is no more useful than a rusty tool buried in the shed for years.

By taking action upon your intuitive insights, you plug yourself into the flowing grid of information of the universe. This allows you to gain the correct information for whatever you are processing now. It no longer matters what you were processing last year or last month or ten minutes ago. It does not matter what you will be processing next week.

You can only live NOW and your insights must offer you constantly updated information that is appropriate and usable for your particular situation.

You can begin to wake-up and work your intuition muscle in several ways. You can get quiet and meditate, knowing that intuition is often expressed in whispers. You must be quiet and focused as if you are intently interested in a conversation with your best friend that you are having in a noisy, crowded airport. You can observe your environment, including your body, which will offer you clues as to what insights are currently important for you.

You can ask your infinite Angels, Guardians, and Guides to help you to reconnect with that subtle energy that guides you instantly. You must make the commitment to follow your guidance and take appropriate action to better your condition.

As you continue to follow your intuition, it will get stronger and better defined. You will find yourself with new and greater opportunities manifesting in your life.

HAPPY CINCO DE MAYO! NEW BOOK RELEASE!

An excerpt from my new book:

~Getting yourself to a state of awareness can be confusing. How do you start? Where do you go? Hopefully, you will find some answers as you read this. You do not have to do it all by yourself, though. There are therapists and support groups. Some are specialized, others are open and anyone can talk about their problems.
There are specialized support groups called ECap groups. ECap stands for Exceptional Cancer Patients. Dr. Bernie Siegel, a medical physician and author well known for his books on helping patients heal and survive cancer, began the first ECap group in 1977 with a dozen women patients. The groups have grown and evolved and are now offered to anyone who has problems that need support. You may also find local groups that are extremely helpful.
An important point to remember is that you are not alone. If you feel that way, consider joining a support group or even a prayer group in which you can be with other people. Choose a group that you really resonate with, not just a crowd of people. Sometimes, a crowd can be a very lonely place.

A wonderful action you can learn from being in a group is to say the word NO. Research has found that the first time many cancer patients have ever said NO is after they were diagnosed with cancer. All of their life was previously spent in acquiescing to others wishes, doing for others, and caring for others. It is almost as if their subconscious or the Universe says, “Stop. You have cancer… now, say NO.” It is as if they need a reason to say NO.
A group can help you see that, if you this is the way you have been, and help you learn to take care of yourself. Dr. Siegel calls it carefrontation. You, in turn, will do that service for others in the group. You will also remember and turn to your friends in the group when you get embroiled in your daily patterns. Knowing that they are available to turn to will give you energy and strength.

You do not have to say YES to every request. You can give yourself permission to take a vacation or a night out. You can tell the neighbor or the store clerk NO. It can be fun to practice. Give up the idea that you may be unliked – who cares?
First, ask yourself if the request is something you really want to fulfill; is it something that you truly want to do? If it is, do it. Do what makes you happy. If it is not something you want to do, say NO. That can make you happy, too. You will find that the person who made the request will quickly and easily find a way to fulfill that request without burdening you. Let that be okay.

A wonderful practice that evolved from the ECap groups involves artwork as a medium to explore your inner space. Dr. Siegel tells a story that he learned from another physician of a young, vibrant man who had his leg amputated to save his life. Initially, the patient drew a picture of himself as a cracked, defective vase. With group work and therapy, he finished his self-portrait two years later as rays of sunshine streaming through the crack in the vase.

Carl Jung was a proponent of drawing from the inner space, the soul. He used indigenous teachings of specialized drawings called Mandala. Jung’s patients learned about their inner mind and their subconscious from creating therapeutic Mandalas.
Mandalas are usually pictures drawn within a circle, often with four direction lines dividing the circle into north, south, east, and west. Jung believed the circle represented life with no beginning and no end. The pictures in the different directions are symbols of the subconscious and inner life. 3
Anything that you draw representing your inner consciousness can be helpful. You may not understand fully at first. Draw it anyway. Look for the significance in the drawing as a symbolism of what it means to you or how it represents your life. You may find other important points as you meditate with your creations.~

HEALING with QUANTUM CONSCIOUSNESS

The quantum is the smallest energetic component found in the universe. It also pervades the universe because it makes up everything in the universe. It is also in the space between everything. By using a focused intent, and meaning to tap into the quantum consciousness of healing on purpose, we exponentially increase the probability of successfully healing; living a longer, more prosperous, healthy, and happy life. We tap into infinite possibilities of health, wealth, joy, and peace. We tap into the wholeness of the universe, the quanta, which is the absolute consciousness that is everywhere in all things. In this sense, tapping into this wholeness becomes a quantum of inner experience that is available to each human being, a quantum experience.
Tapping into quantum intelligence for healing of ordinary, everyday problems as well as assisting recovery from illness and disaster holds unlimited possibilities and immeasurable value. We can apply the wisdom of ancient texts and centuries old oral traditions of indigenous tribes. They are repositories coded with information we can use to heal physical illness, habitual problems, and relationship issues. They can help us answer questions about spirituality and our personal relationship with the divine Creator, the source of quantum consciousness.

Infinite Blessings from your Infinite Angels.

THE DANCE

Hypnosis is a dance. It is a dance of energy – the energy of words and sound. The energy of words is reflected in the tone, rhythm or cadence, pitch, and timber of the Hypnotherapist’s voice as well as by the particular words themselves. The energy is in the essence of the words so it is vital, whenever communicating, to have your own energy in the highest possible frequency. This is an important consideration for whenever you are dealing with the healing arts as well as other interactions.

Words are symbols. Just as the letters that make up written words are symbols that, when combined in a certain manner, create symbols of meaning for written language; spoken words are symbols of meaning conveyed through sound vibration.

If you study great orators, you will learn how they convey their ideas, feelings, thoughts, and passion into their speeches. Close your eyes and listen; really hear how great speakers put words together in a cohesive and eloquent manner. It is a symphony – a dance.

The dance begins with an introduction. “Hello, how are you?” You are introducing yourself to someone and they hear you with their subconscious. Then, you begin the energetic exchange of words, thoughts, ideas, and feelings that will elegantly translate into potential changes in behaviour, help repair mistakes in thinking, help re-create and co-create beneficial lifestyle changes, elevate mood without destructive chemicals as well as many other benefits too numerous to elaborate upon.

The more eloquent you can be in your artful dance of healing words, the stronger, more immediate, and longer lasting will be the changes for you. Your exquisite use of sound and symbols will transport you into a parallel universe of subconscious desire to co-create advantageous changes that are truly valuable for you.

Keep in mind that, each time you work with this energy, you are also influencing your own subconscious. It behooves you to consistently and perpetually revise and renew your mental language. Constantly ask the question: “How can I make this communication better? How can I dance more expressively, articulately, or persuasively with the words I use?” The answers will flow up from your subconscious mind to positively influence your behaviour and your life. You will soon become fluent in the Art of Dancing with Words.

ANIMAL ANGELS

Animal Angels

Most people are unaware of the angelic nature of animals. There are so many stories of animal pets rescuing their owners that I could never tell them all in this little blog.

Animals often perform rescue service that is not widely recorded. I have a friend whose daughter suffered from a condition similar to fibromyalgia in which she in constant pain. When my friend’s daughter came to live with her, the pain subsided. My friend’s dog, Star, began to take on the symptoms of the daughter’s condition. Her beloved Star crossed over two years later and the daughter’s symptoms and pain returned in full force, but she had a brief reprieve. These types of stories are not often reported by the general media.

There are stories of animal attacks as well. Usually, the animals are strongly influenced by the negative thoughts or unbalanced emotions of the humans around them. Animals in and of themselves are balanced and harmonious as God and nature intended.

You can tell if you are calm and relaxed inside by how animals respond to you. If you have good intentions, animal behaviour around you will reflect that. If not, you will experience disruption in an animal’s behaviour. Animals are not naturally neurotic; they pick up the emotional energy from the humans handling them.

If you want to become more balanced, harmonious, and want to see that reflection in animals around you as if you were looking in a mirror, practice following your thoughts. Replace any negative, begrudging, spiteful, or hateful thoughts about your neighbors, job, cost of living, relationships, or the government with better thoughts. You may not accomplish this all at once. And, like me, you may still have thoughts that are unworthy of you. The point is – don’t give up. Keep replacing low-frequency thoughts for thoughts that help you to feel that life is good. Know that angels are always surrounding you – the ones you can see such as animals, and the ones you cannot see such as your Guardian Angels and Guides.

Remember to thank them daily and each time every good thing happens to you. You will soon notice more good things happening more often in your life. It quickly becomes fun to count your blessings because you soon have more than you can count!

EARTH ANGELS

When you are born into this dimension, on this earth, the first thing you do is take a breath. You in-breathe life giving oxygen that is vital to your survival outside of your mother’s womb. Where do you think that comes from? Trees.

Trees are Earth Angels that, through photosynthesis – the interaction with the sun – convert the toxins dispelled from our bodies through exhaled breath into the very component that we need to survive – oxygen.

We can survive for weeks without food, for days with water, but only minutes without the life giving oxygen provided by these Earth Angels, trees.

Not only do they provide for our physical survival; they stand up tall to show us how to be emotionally stable, mentally honorable, and spiritually reaching toward heaven and all its goodness.

If humans were removed from the planet, it would only take 10 or 20 years for Mother Earth to restore herself to the pristine condition that is her divine right. Earth does not need humans; humans need their Mother Earth. And, trees are the skin and hair of Mother Earth. Trees are the Earth Angels that are the sentinels providing shelter and protection. They keep the soil/skin of the earth from eroding so that humans can grow food as well as being Wisdom Teachers for us. The Native Americans could tune-in to the knowledge of trees and plants for medicine long before the first pharmaceutical company had any thought of extracting chemicals from plants or moldy bread.

Here is a chant to honor Trees that is often sung in prayer circles:
Trees, trees, trees, all I ever dream is trees,
Pine, cedar, redwood, and hickory, let them all grow.


Native American chants are usually sung in four rounds to honor the four directions. Also, you can change the names of the trees to whatever you like such as:
Trees, trees, trees, all I ever dream is trees,
Birch, maple, poplar, and ironwood, let them all grow.


Honor the trees in your environment. Speak to them – out loud or in your heart. They have a divine intelligence and they can hear you just as clearly as your Guardian Angels or any of God’s Angels can. They will be thrilled just to have you acknowledge them. Do what you can to care for trees, perhaps just picking up any trash around them or in their branches.

They give their lives for us; there is no greater love.

Infinite Blessings from your Infinite Angels.

WE ARE ALL TOGETHER!

The Angels want me to tell you today that we are all together. What they mean is that we are not separated. The Angels are a part of God as we all are, as all of creation is – even as a grain of sand is a part of God.

As such, we are never separated. Just as all of your fingers are part of your hand and are included in and make up your whole hand, we and the Angels are part of and within God.

The reason that we feel separate is because we have free choice in this realm. We have, over many thousands of years lost the focus of our god consciousness, focusing instead upon material things, lack, and the differences in human personalities that cause feelings of estrangement and division.

When you call upon the Angels for assistance, they respond from within you as well as from without. You know this is true because sometimes, things do not change in your environment so much, but you feel different inside. The Angels' response to your request within your being, your physical / mental / emotional / spiritual body is the Angels activating within you. Your gratitude and acknowledgement of their presence within and surrounding you will increase your consciousness of the Angels and your experiences with them will keep becoming stronger and better.

Sometimes, the Angels may show themselves in the twilight of a rising or setting sun. Look to the South (not at the sun) and bring your focus closer to you rather than looking at the far-off clouds. As you look up into the sky, bring your focus to a range of 3-4 feet from you. You may see sparkles of light darting quickly around – so fast they resemble the brief illuminations of a Fourth of July sparkler. This may be the reason the Angels are called deva (pronounced day-va in Sanskrit), which means the shining ones!

When you activate your Angelic presence within, you too, will feel joy and shining.

Infinite Blessings from your Infinite Angels.

DIRECTIONS

As a modern society, we have lost our sense of direction. I do not mean that we are morally bankrupt, although that may be true in some cases. I mean that we are unfortunately unaware of the energies of directions, although there is a faint archaic reference in the story, The Wizard of Oz, in which the directions are aligned with specific ‘witches’.

Most churches of all denominations around the globe have their doors open in the east. If there is an altar, it too faces east. Ancient peoples and those indigenous peoples who are relatively unscathed by what we term “civilization” also face certain directions, drawing upon the qualities of the directions to enhance and fortify the intent of their prayers. This is something that I learned from my Beloved Elder, Shakmah Winddrum, many years ago.

It is an ancient belief that the four principal or chief Archangels: Raphael, Michael, Gabriel, and Uriel rule the four cardinal directions of east, west, north, and south.

Turn to Archangel Raphael in the east to enhance the qualities of illumination and enlightenment within you. All things begin in the east. The sun and moon rise in the east. Native Americans believe that the soul enters this dimension and becomes infused into the infant from the east direction. This is the direction of spring and new growth.

Archangel Michael rules the south. This is the direction of relationships and emotion. Michael offers comfort and consolation when we feel unsteady in our relationships. Michael is also the Protector Angel, providing defense and safeguard when we pay attention through our intuition and insights.

The west is ruled by Archangel Gabriel, the messenger. The west is the direction of rebirth in the sense that we can dissolve old patterns and habits that are no longer serving our highest benefit and develop or birth new, better ways of being. Gabriel is the Angel that told Mother Mary that she was pregnant with Yeshuah, who we know as Jesus. You can consult Gabriel when you want good, clear communication skills, or whenever you want to be a better messenger.

The qualities of wisdom and clarity are enhanced in the north, which is ruled by Archangel Uriel. These qualities are symbolized by crystal clear ice and pure, white snow. This does not mean that we need to be cold as ice to be clear, but with a warm heart and caring concern, we can learn to be clear within ourselves as we learn to have clarity with others.

Whatever direction you are facing at the moment, resolve every day to communicate with your beloved Angels who are always ready, willing, and able to guide and protect you.

MEANING

Everything that happens in our life does so for a reason. Everything has meaning.

We may not want to think this is true. We may want to think that only good things that happen are gifts. The reality of life is that things happen that we approve of – that we like or enjoy. And, things also happen that we feel are hurtful, painful, or that we believe make us suffer.

The paradox is that, for some people, it is not suffering. We can observe two different people in the same condition and they will each handle the situation differently. One person can be devastated by a disease, divorce, or loss of a job or home. Another person can look at the loss or illness as a blessing; as a gift of a new and better relationship or as a way to live closer to nature.

The meaning that your life has is whatever you give it. Your life and your experiences are whatever you perceive them to be, for better or worse. If you assign a meaning of regret to an experience then, no matter what anyone else tries to tell you about your experience, it will always hold regret for you.

Here is the magic in that paradox: If you look for the good in every experience, you will always – I mean always – find it! Even if it is an experience that happened to you fifty years ago; you can go into the treasury bank of your memories, review the events or experience and create a new feeling for it. You can take an experience in which you may have felt devastated, and decide to feel differently.

For example, suppose you had a horrible experience as a child, perhaps you were made fun of or you got beaten up. You could decide to be sad about that or you could decide that it was an experience that made you stronger, made you a person of great strength and fortitude today. In other words, the experience was the fire that forged your personality and made you great. You can look at any situation of detriment in your life in this way. You can flip the coin of bad happenings in your life to reveal the silver linings.

Archangel Chamuel, the Finder Angel, can help you. Just ask, “Archangel Chamuel, please help me find a way to see unfortunate situations in a new way. Help me to see the true meaning of love and goodness in every experience of my life. Thank you!” Chamuel and all of your Infinite Angels are always around you to assist you with these wonderful changes.

MEDITATION FOR SAD

Many people in the Northern hemisphere experience Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD) during the winter months because it is less sunny. Here is a meditation that I use with clients that can help. Remember, your subconscious believes that experiences in your imagination are just as real as your waking reality. This is the reason that so many athletes drastically improve their ability with creative visualizations.

So, as you read this story, imagine that it is you on the sun-swept beach…

I would like to tell you a story… About a girl named Mira…
As our story begins… Mira has found herself in a predicament…
She had some health issues and these of course, are tied into other issues, because we know that everything is connected to everything else… We are all related…
And, because we are all related, Mira knew there were certain people, angels and guides that she could turn to for help… Through their assistance, she found help and hope…

So, Mira came to find herself to be on an ancient island of healing…
We don’t really know if this was an actual island or if she used her creative imagination… But then, that is not the important part…

This island was magnificent… The weather was sunny, comfortable, and balmy…
The air was fresh and clean… The ocean sprayed a gorgeous mist onto the island that created rainbows everywhere… There was no more relaxing place in the world…

As Mira came onto this island, she like exploring so she chose to walk in the sunshine a short way from the beach into the warm ocean waves, just as far as she was comfortable going… The ocean waves tossed her gently and lovingly back and forth…
Embedded in the floor of the ocean, a short distance from the beach, were some very large and powerful crystals that imparted a strong healing energy to the water…

Wading in the water, she was peaceful in this warm, calm sea of tranquility…
Soon, she felt a tingling on her skin… This was the supercharged energy of the crystals being absorbed by her skin through the water that was touching her body…

Mira took several moments to direct the healing energy to the part of her body that needed it the most… I am not sure if it was her back or chest area… Or perhaps her heart… Or, perhaps it was several areas of her body, I really don’t know…
And, it did not need to be only one place… Perhaps her entire being was crying out for health and healing…

Anyway, she decided to stay in the water for a time, feeling relaxed and letting the energy work on her in its subtle, benevolent way…
So, pretty soon, she began to see and feel the presence of several tame and loving dolphins swimming up to her… They were attracted by her calmness and the beauty inside her…

Dolphins are master diagnosticians and healers… They added their energy to the energy of the crystals… By this time, she could swim as well as the dolphins because the water was so supercharged with energy… Together with the dolphins, she played and played in the warm, sparkling, healing water… Touching each other, diving and coming up to breathe the beneficent air…

Mira was so enchanted and entranced by her newfound friends that she forgot the original purpose of her swim, which is healing… Yet all the while, her body is absorbing the healing energy from the crystals and the dolphins…

After a while, Mira felt ready to leave the water and go back to the beach… The sand felt so good under her feet… She was comforted by the knowledge that she can return as many times as she wishes…

So special was the water, that immediately, she was dry… Feeling content, joyful and better than she had ever felt before, she sat quietly for a time experiencing the warmth of the sun and the caress of the breezes…

Mira knew she would always have this beautiful sanctuary of healing in her mind and in her heart…

And now, so can you!

Infinite Blessings from your Infinite Angels.

ENLIGHTENMENT

The path to enlightenment is paradoxical and different for everyone. No matter how much the religions of the world fill you up with rules, dogma, and regulations, the end result is that you must realize that you are already enlightened.

Think of the Buddha’s life. He was born Gautama Siddhartha, a wealthy prince and heir to the throne in the region that is now Nepal, India. His father so desperately wanted Siddhartha to inherit the throne that he forbade anyone at the palace to frown, speak of bad news, or exhibit pain in front of the prince. For almost 30 years, Siddhartha was basically kept unconscious; his father refused to allow him to become aware of sickness, old age, or suffering. Even chains of gold are still chains.

When Siddhartha finally left the confines of the palace, he reportedly saw a dying man, a decaying corpse, and a beggar. It is said that he became so depressed that he vowed to become an ascetic until he reached enlightenment. He sat under a tree for weeks. One day, he simply declared that he was enlightened. He then taught what is called the Middle Way, which is avoiding gluttony and also avoiding scarcity.

The brilliant point that I see in the life of Buddha is that he really did nothing out of the ordinary. He simply lived his life. When he felt that he was enlightened, he declared it to be so. He stated the fact, and so it was.

Many great teachers, saints, and guides began their lives with wealth and abundance. However, they had an inner urge to discover more to life. They refused to accept that acquiring material possessions was the only purpose in life. They searched for inner peace. Inner peace is true wealth and is a reflection of the state of enlightenment.

You can connect with Buddha energy in meditation as well as Jesus, Mother Mary, Chief Joseph, or any spiritual master or guide. You can also connect with your Infinite Angels anytime to receive guidance, comfort, and protection.

Remember, enlightenment is not something that you need to strive for; it is something that you only need to remember that you are!

RESPECT

Don Miguel Ruiz teaches in The Four Agreements that people allow themselves to be abused when they do not have good self-esteem. I would go a step further and state that people with low self-esteem are also people who abuse others.

If you have good self-esteem, it is unnecessary for you to abuse others. A mature person with healthy self-esteem has no need to look down on others, treat them unkindly, or call them names. It simply dissolves from your inner personality. Your disposition slowly becomes a nature of amiability and thoughtfulness.

Habits of good self-esteem are developed just as any other habit is formed. You can ask gentle Archangel Uriel to help you. Archangel Uriel can help you gain clarity to increase good thoughts about yourself and increase your self-respect.

Create a quiet moment in which you can communicate with Archangel Uriel. You can talk out loud, whisper, write a letter, or have a mental conversation with Uriel. Ask Uriel to show you the situations in which you are abusing others. Ask Uriel to help you to forgive yourself and move on. Uriel will assist you in opening your heart to the Divine love of your Infinite Angels.

You can also connect with Angel Metatron, who is especially fond of helping teenagers, to help you to remember your true self-worth and help you to gain confidence in being your authentic self. Your authentic self is not the actor in the movie with the snappy, sarcastic comeback. Your genuine self is a light of divinity that is meant to bring joy, not pain, into the world.

Ask Angel Metatron to help you form habits of complimenting others rather than degrading them. You will soon find that others look forward to your company rather than avoiding you. Ask Metatron to assist you in complimenting yourself when you accomplish small successes of bringing others joy. As you accumulate triumphs, your self-respect and self-esteem will increase.

LIVE NOW

You cannot deny that there are things going on all around us that seem to make life a hell on earth. We have technology that allows us to have instantaneous data from almost any place or any person on the planet. Most of the information is about events that shock or sadden us. It is not too often that we here of something good happening or an act of kindness that an individual has performed.

Unfortunately, the news that gets our attention is the cry for help, the disaster, or the injustice. We will hear about the earthquake in Haiti before we hear about the majestic sunrise over the beautiful mountains of Kona, Hawai’i. We will hear about disasters in the world and in personal relationships before we hear the words, “Oh, something wonderful happened today! Let me tell you about it.”

This is true and it is happening everywhere. You can decide, though, how you want to respond to events. You can choose to tune into your heart and your Angels. You can allow the outer world to have its place and space while you choose to remain calm, relaxed, and confident with your inner sovereignty.

The point is not to deny the existence of fateful occurrences. This is not it at all. You certainly can acknowledge whatever is happening without becoming so wrapped up in it emotionally that you lose your sense of self. Concede to what is without dwelling on issues. If you can help, do so compassionately. If you cannot offer assistance, bless it and let it go.

Remember to live in the moment. Live now. Attempting to live in the future or living in memories of the past robs you of life moving through you. You only have this moment. It is a gift, that is why it is called the present. Ask your Infinite Angels to help you stay in the moment. Breathe in this moment as good and secure for you. Check in with your heart to feel the comfort and love living resiliently within you and share this with others.

Do not bury this moment in the future or the past. Do not be afraid to live.
LIVE NOW.

Infinite Blessings from your Infinite Angels.

CIRCLES OF LOVE

One of my favorite meditations of all time is one that I learned from David Carson. He is a medicine teacher and you can find out more information about him at
http://www.medicinecards.com/ . This meditation is from a recording called “Medicine Songs”, which is on cassette tape. I could not find it on CD or iPod, but you may be able to locate a copy from a secondary bookseller.
This is my version of the meditation. I encourage you to experience the original version if you can obtain a copy.

It is good to practice this meditation in nature or a quiet place where you are comfortable and will not be disturbed. Call in your Angels, Guardians, and Guides to increase your ability to feel their grounding presence.

You begin by relaxing and centering yourself in your body. Release all other cares and concerns by concentrating on your breathing. Follow your breath into your heart center. Follow the life force through your nostrils and down your throat to your lungs surrounding your heart. Allow the beauty of the oxygen to flow around your chest and enliven your being. Remember to breathe throughout this meditation – long, slow, deliberate breaths.

Move to the center of your heart-space. Feel the light and warmth in the very center of this sacred space. Allow this divine light to grow and expand until it fills your body then, allow it to grow a little more to fill the space around you.

Feel the sacred warmth and light within and surrounding you. Allow this feeling to grow and expand into your environment. Feel the sacred energy move into the room, your home, or the land you are presently sitting on. Feel it become strong, loving and protective. Feel secure in this sacred energy. Be with this energy for a moment and feel it strengthen and expand.

Let this sacred energy from your heart move out and extend to your neighborhood and community. Feel it strengthen. Feel its warmth and security. Feel the radiance of love and compassion as the sacred energy moves into the surrounding city, state, and nation. Bask in this divine energy for a moment. Breathe in the loving-kindness of this power. Allow this exquisite energy to bless all that it encompasses.

Feel this sacred energy emanating from the center of your heart space to grow and expand to move around the entire planet. Let the benevolent energy touch every tree, animal, rock, insect, fish, bird, building, vehicle, and human. Let the blessing grow and expand to fill every molecule and atom, even in the subatomic spaces in between the atoms’ components. Imagine that you can see yourself from outer space and you can see the visible light moving around the beautiful earth like a tender blanket of safety.

Breathe and let this energy expand to encompass the moon, the sun, and all the planets in the solar system. This is now your neighborhood. This is your sacred space. Bless this space with gentleness and affection. Keep breathing and expanding your heart energy to move out past the solar system to include the universe and beyond.
Allow the blessings to multiply, expand on their own and move back toward you.

Teach yourself to hold this expanded energy so that, little by little, in the manner in which you learn anything, you become strong in this sacred energy of the Circle of Love. Ask your Angels, Guardians, and Guides to assist you in holding this sacred space of love and light. You will love to live in this energy where the smallest creation is sacred.


Infinite Blessings from your Infinite Angels.

WHAT IF?

My mind was in an inquisitive state recently and I just started asking myself questions beginning with, “What if?”

For example, “What if we were all one, big soul before thebig bang’?” Would that mean we were once not separated? Could that be the reason scientists are searching (and have been for a hundred years) for the answer to the unification theory?

Perhaps we recognize ourselves in others because we were once them. Psychiatrists claim that we see in others a reflection of ourselves. Maybe this relates to more than personality. Perhaps it is recognition of a soul connection.

Ancient teachings say that we became individuated souls. From what? It must have been one, ginormous soul. Did it all become individuated or did some of it remain in a huge conglomeration to take care of the rest of us? If this is the case, are the parts as big as the whole, or does it even matter?

If that were true, and I am not saying it is – I am just speculating, could that be how we were created from God’s image?

What if we were all one, big soul? That would mean that you are me and I am you. How could I be against you, knowing that? How could you be against me with this understanding? Could this be the ancient truth that will bring peace to the planet?

What if…


Infinite Blessings from your Infinite Angels.

GATEWAY

We live in a world of symbolism. This third dimension inundates us with constant data input that we must make sense of with how it pertains to our own life. The fact is that you are reading this discourse right now. The symbolism (what it means in your life and to you in particular) is whatever you perceive it to be for you. Everyone’s perceptions are just a little bit different because all humans are the same in uniquely different ways.

Some symbols, omens, and signs are archetypal. That means that they have much the same meaning for most everyone. For example, the goddess, Venus, is an archetypal representation of any female energy that exhibits exquisite beauty, grace, softness, radiance, warmth, sensuality, and attractiveness. The opposing side of that archetypal coin would be the god, Aries. Aries is the example of male energy that exhibits protection, strength, power, might, force, potency, and aggressiveness.

Modern symbols include traffic signs such as an X to indicate a railroad crossing ahead or a circle with a diagonal line from one edge of the circumference to the other, which indicates that a certain action, such as parking your car or smoking, is prohibited in that area. Another example is a sign with binoculars painted on it that tells you that a certain spot is a good place to observe wildlife.

Numerologically, today - this day 1/11/2011, is the symbol of a Gateway. I believe (and you must make your own determination) that this is the last gateway into the promise of higher vibrational frequencies for the Universe. This is the last gateway of the many that we have experienced since the Harmonic Convergence in 1987. We have felt Gaia’s axis shift, volcanic eruptions of Mt. St. Helen, the cleansing power of hurricanes and countless earthquakes.

Those of us who are privileged to be alive in a physical body on the planet today are moving through the final gateway into 2012.
Everything about us – our being, our bodies, our minds, and our heart energies – is more potent than at any other time in recent history.

It is more important than ever to stay connected to Source through your Infinite Angels. Ask them to come and live with you. Connect with your Ascended Masters, Guardians, and Guides as well as your Angels. Ask them for guidance to move you gently through the next step in your evolution. Ask them to protect you even more strongly than they have in the past. Ask them to remind you often to ask good questions that will benefit you and help you to get the most out of life.

Most of all, ask them to help you to open your heart energy to feel the love that Creator and all of Creation has for you. Ask them to help you to embrace the peace that resides in the Divine Light of God that is in your center. Go to your center often through self-hypnosis, meditation, and contemplation.

Infinite Blessings from your Infinite Angels.

THE QUICKENING

Here it is; we are in the year 2011. It seems like just last week it was the year 2000! The world really is speeding up. NASA scientists have had to re-adjust the atomic clocks to compensate for the Earth’s increased axial revolutions. We have instant knowledge from the other side of the planet with social interconnectivity. People trust their intuition more because they are experiencing rapid results in their life.

It is an empirical fact that evolution occurs exponentially. This means that when a form evolves on Earth, it evolves from the knowledge gained rather than from an initial starting point. This is a Quickening. This is what all life is experiencing now.

For example, a mouse that has learned to navigate a maze in an experimental laboratory will pass this evolutionary knowledge to its descendants through its DNA. The knowledge of mazes is passed on to following generations of mice. Consecutive generations will conquer simple mazes more quickly than mice bred from parents that never experienced navigating a maze in the lab.

Evolutionary leaps within the human form are occurring at breakneck speeds. Ancient texts and wisdom teachers have always known that humans are remarkable and have unlimited power to create. In the past, controlling powers and governments have attempted to suppress the knowledge of human capability and the amazing process of evolution. They have distracted us by engaging our attention in wars and fear.

Divine Light always prevails and now we are consciously aware that we are aware. Technology has caught up with ancient wisdom and scientists have proven that people can see auras, can communicate telepathically, can exhibit astonishing feats of strength, can heal spontaneously, and can accomplish an infinite number of achievements.

Ask your Infinite Angels to help you keep in mind your unlimited potential. You can especially call upon Angel Metatron and Ascended Master St. Germain to help you transform lower vibrating energies into higher frequencies. Ask Archangel Michael to help you cut through all of the sensationalism that is rampant in the media today. Ask Archangel Raphael to help you to heal any hurt or pain you feel in your awareness of suffering – in the world or in your own life.

Blessings.
