“If psychics truly existed, why aren’t they rolling in money from the stock market?” I said this years ago, before I came to embrace the notion that we all possess a sixth sense. Obviously, I didn’t have a clue about how Divine Guidance works in our lives. Our intuitive gifts exist to feed our spiritual [...]
Stress occurs when we dwell on the “what-ifs” of a difficult situation, sinking us into worry and fear. For many of us it’s an automatic response, one we may not recognize until it starts hurting our wellbeing. The good news is we can break this cycle through radically changing our outlook. Why we don’t want [...]
I’d been the type of person who didn’t like surprises. One who’d sought control over what happened in my life. I’d planned and executed actions, expecting everything to come together how and when I wanted it to. But do you know what? All I ended up with was stress, frustration and disappointment. In attempting [...]
Some religions believe that our earthly plane is removed from the heavenly and spiritual realms. That our end goal is to ascend to a different location, wholly separate from our physical existence. Imagine my surprise, when meditating, that I learned all realms exist in the same cosmic container, intersecting and residing in the same [...]
Following my experiences at the haunted Goldfield Hotel (see “A Reluctant Spirit”), I realized that I’d always filled my space with noise. Music blared while I drove. And, when I’d arrived home, I’d turn on the radio or tv—even if I didn’t want to watch or listen to anything. Being in the quiet made [...]
This is a continuation of last week's post. Tactic #2: Ego tricks you into thinking it’s furthering your spirituality. Earlier this year, I decided that if my book business didn’t break even by the end of this year, I would stop writing blogs, making presentations and considering new book concepts. I told myself that [...]
Our ego can expertly derail us from our spiritual path, but more alarming is that it can do this without us consciously being aware of it. What is ego? Ego feeds us misinformation such as we aren’t good enough, we’re better than others or we shouldn’t to listen to our intuition. When we heed [...]
My most transformative encounters (spiritual, intuitive and paranormal) occurred when I wasn’t expecting them. I routinely hear from others desperately wanting to experience God or spirits who think that if they just focus more on it happening, it will. Unfortunately, this usually leads to the opposite. When we try too hard to feel the Creator, [...]
Once I started exploring my own psychic abilities, others would advise me to raise my vibration. When I’d ask them what that meant, I’d get a vague response, such as: “It’s your energy” or “One day you’ll just know what it is.” I was befuddled. How could I raise my vibration? I pictured myself [...]
Being too steeped in our physical domain is one of the greatest obstacles to strengthening our psychic abilities. When we’re mired in an earthly state, we erect a brick wall between ourselves and spirit messages and divine guidance. In many ways, the material realm contrasts with the ethereal one. Our current existence requires us [...]
