Spirits can manipulate our electronics to communicate their desires and opinions. I’ve had multiple unexpected episodes that usually present themselves as an instantaneous loss of battery charge. Of course, we must consider why a battery would die (other than from paranormal activity) such as from extreme cold, it’s old or expired, or it’s been drained [...]
One of my readers, Kendra,* shared that a Christian pastor had told her that her family had a multi-generational curse put on it. She believed this as many of her kin—parents, grandparents, great grandparents and more—had suffered hardships. The notion of a curse is hard for me to accept. Even so, decades ago, I worked [...]
If you’ve read A Reluctant Spirit or have heard me talk, you know that I no longer fear death. I see this event merely as a transition, when we leave our physical shells behind and experience a realm of freedom and love. It’s not that I wish for an early death. No. I see having [...]
Read my review of Dr. Eben Alexander’s first book, Proof of Heaven. Neurosurgeon Alexander’s second book, The Map of Heaven, cannot and should not be compared to his first amazing work, Proof of Heaven, where he shares his journey from skeptic to believer after experiencing a near death experience. Map of Heaven is a compilation [...]
At one of my book talks last month, a woman said her husband didn’t believe in ghosts, even though she’d had some profound paranormal experiences. Believe me, I know it’s not easy when those closest to us don’t understand how supernatural encounters shape us. Not being able to openly discuss with partners, family members or [...]
Like our muscles, if we don’t use our intuition, it will weaken. I’ve found that the best first step to developing this ability is to pay attention to our surroundings. Here are some actions I’ve found helpful in nurturing my own growth: Learn what sounds, sights and smells are normal in your home What does [...]
I’d like to proclaim that I’m a consistent, enlightened woman. One who never gets angry, impatient or cranky. But if I did, I’d be lying. Perhaps my most frustrating shortcoming is that I seesaw on a regular basis: sometimes I heed the lessons I’ve learned and at others I let my ego take charge and [...]
Thanks to reader Bryce for requesting this topic. While I believe healing occurs when and if the Most Divine decides it will happen, we can prepare ourselves for renewed health. These actions also provide a precious benefit: an increased sense of peace. I’ll probably never know why God waited 18 years to reinvigorate my body. [...]
When I’m at peace, I find each day brings me a small present, one that further boosts my gratitude and infuses additional joy into my routine. It could take the form of someone appreciating my work, or me witnessing a dazzling sunrise, encountering wildlife or laughing heartily with loved ones. Unfortunately, I’m not at peace [...]
Thanks to regular reader Kristin for suggesting this post. Can the acts of creating and inventing be divinely inspired and is it very common? I believe the answer is “yes.” For me, there’s no doubt A Reluctant Spirit’s wording was sent from above to me. As most of you know, I spent a year trying [...]
