Our Founding Vision… “I was standing on the highest mountain of them all, and round about beneath me was the whole hoop of the world. And while I stood there I saw more than I can tell and I understood more than I saw; for I was seeing in a sacred manner the shapes of all things in the spirit, and the shape of all shapes as they must live together like one being. And I saw that the sacred hoop of my people was one of many hoops that made one circle, wide as daylight and as starlight, and in the center grew one mighty flowering tree to shelter all children of one mother and one father. And I saw that it was holy.” Black Elk’s Vision (1862 - 1950) Our Beliefs... We believe all people are One! And that this great truth lies deep within each person’s heart! We dedicate the Guide to the One Mother, the One Father and their children (you and I)! Though we speak many languages from differing nations, professions, religions, and realms, as we start to sing the language of LOVE we begin to become aware that we are all singing the same song! This publication seeks to create Harmony to that One Song, the BEAUTIFUL Song of life! Howard & Penny Golden We welcome your contributions in the form of articles, comments and opinions.

In The Light BETTER HEALTH VENDING Healthier Vending choices are great for you and your colleagues -- at no cost to your company! Many companies have implemented, or are in the process of implementing, Corporate Wellness Programs as a means to help lower rising healthcare costs and promote a healthier, more productive workforce. Eating a healthy, balanced diet has many benefits for the overall health of your employees, including increased energy and work productivity — even fewer sick days. A healthy diet can also help prevent health conditions such as heart disease, high blood pressure and Type 2 diabetes. Have you ever taken a look at the ingredients listed on the food you buy? Most people can answer, “Yes,” they have peeked. But have you ever looked at the ingredients listed on all the food you purchase including the snacks, packaged food, spices, sauces, butters, broths, cheeses, beverages-- I mean everything? Not many people have because this is such an overwhelming task. We are busy people and it takes much of our precious time to grocery shop. Who has time to read that teeny tiny lettering on EVERYTHING! Over the past years we have become excellent at this because it became necessary. The mission is to eat all of our food from its most natural state of existence. What this means to us is: Organic, Fresh, Non GMO, All Natural, Gluten Free, Natural Sugars, Minimal Processing, and Minimal ingredients. Due to our desire to be healthy ourselves, while also growing an “Organic” child, we are passionate about helping send the message to others. We hope that our example with leading the way on this voyage towards health will inspire people to learn and make choices that they can be happy with. Key word here is CHOICES. Shouldn’t we have the choice to choose a
healthier snack and drink option? Wouldn’t it be great if it was right there in the break room at your convenience? Having onthe-go snack options that give you healthy fuel for a successful day is what our company Better Health Vending, LLC will do for you. Hi, we are Angie and Jerrud with Better Health Vending, LLC. We are lifelong residents of Michigan and advocates of healthy vending. You’ve all seen the stats on increasing rates of childhood and adult obesity rates. The good news is that change is coming. Schools are providing more nutritious meals and more and more businesses are looking at healthy vending as an addition to their Corporate Wellness Program. This is where we come in. At Better Health Vending, LLC, we bring a healthy vending option to businesses and facilities in Michigan. We can place our healthy vending machine next to traditional snack and drink machines, or we can replace the junk food machines with our healthier option. There is no cost to your company. If you are interested in receiving more information or you would like us to visit your facility, please fill out the information on the Contact Us page or call us directly at: 734-972-7125.

What Do You Really Want? By Phil Rosenbaum Jack Canfield, author of Chicken Soup for the Soul, describes an exercise he has people do. They get a partner and ask each other over and over, “What do you really want?” At first, many say things such as a new car or house near the ocean, or on a lake, but as they keep going they describe more important things like having a happy family, feeling like they are making a difference, feeling they matter, etc. How would you answer that question? If you knew the answer, would you know how to go about getting it? You deserve to have the things you want and like. The question is, if you know what you want and do not have it, what is stopping you from achieving your goal? Dr. Canfield, a psychologist who graduated from Harvard, goes on to say, “I believe self-esteem is the bottom line of every problem everyone ever has.” Your self-image determines what you get in life. As an example, if you feel you only deserve to make $20,000 a year, and an opportunity comes along that could bring you a great deal more money, you will not take advantage of it. Either you will find a reason not to pursue the opportunity, or you will sabotage it. Your self-image will not allow you to succeed in this endeavor because it goes against what you believe you deserve.

It is not just with money that your self-image dictates what you will get out of life. It will also affect the type of relationship you have, how satisfied you are with your job or career, and it can influence the type of friends you have. For example, are your friends supportive of your desire for success or do they criticize and ridicule you for thinking you can achieve more? Does your spouse or partner support you, or does he or she laugh at your attempts to better yourself? Who you associate with reflects your self-esteem. Do you believe you are entitled to happiness and success or do you believe these are for other people? Do you consider yourself a worthwhile individual, or do you feel you are somehow lacking? Do you ever wonder why some people are so successful while others seem to just get by? It is not merely fate or bad luck that you are not living the life you truly desire to live. Your beliefs about yourself affect the quality of your life. They also have a lot to do with early messages you received when you
8 w w w. B o d y M i n d S p i r i t G U I D E . c o m

were growing up. Perhaps you had abusive parents or care-givers who told you that you were somehow lacking. Or, perhaps they were very fearful and this got passed down to you.
The Power of Anger, Forgiveness and Gratitude
For example, if your mother was afraid to cross a bridge you may have acquired that same fear. Or maybe you were told you had a disability in a school subject and you accepted that label for the rest of your life, not knowing that you had the ability to overcome that problem. So much of our beliefs come from our early childhood experiences. In fact, you are probably not even aware of many of them, because they are now buried in your subconscious mind.
Between the years 2002-2005, I was in five car accidents. Each time, I was hit in the rear, usually standing still. It was surreal. I figured the Universe was sending me a message, but was baffled as to what it could be. I was working at a great job, doing well as a single mom, so what message did I require? I finally approached a new-thought minister with the question. We determined that the accidents happened annually, between Thanksgiving and Christmas. He then asked me what happened the first year, before the first accident. The light bulb went off.
This creates quite a dilemma. How can you challenge these early beliefs if you are not even aware of them? Many people have spent years in therapy trying to understand why their life isn’t working, what is causing their problems, and how they can overcome them. There is, however, a much more efficient way to get to the root of the problem. It is with the use of hypnosis. Hypnosis can help you uncover the cause of your problem in just a few sessions. Not only is it safe and effective, but it can save you a lot of time and expense. Phil Rosenbaum If you would like to find out more about hypnosis, please call Phil Rosenbaum at the Self-Esteem Academy. Call: 248-688-6469. You deserve to be happy and healthy.
“What lies behind us and what lies before us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us.” – Ralph Waldo Emerson
November 2016
By Mary Teresa Hickey
“My mother canceled Thanksgiving for the first time – and she wasn’t nice about it.” (It had been the only holiday that I truly loved – family and gratitude, no gifts.) “When are you going to forgive her?” I bristled. FORGIVE her? Are you kidding? “Then you will continue to have accidents,” he said. That was an interesting proclamation. I went away in a huff and thought about it periodically - I read some literature on forgiveness and happiness. And finally I realized what I was losing by holding on to that anger. And I let it go, completely. 18 months later, I was driving home from a night out with my friends. We were chatting on our cell phones as we drove (yes, breaking the law). I said, “It’s amazing – it’s been more than 18 months since my last car accident – since I forgave my mom. I miss my chiropractor!” Suddenly, an SUV came out of nowhere – flew over the median, destined for a head-on collision with me! I was screaming and swerving, trying to avoid an impact. At last, the SUV hit the curb, and stopped; a drunk driver. My wish came true.
w w w. B o d y M i n d S p i r i t G U I D E . c o m
If I never knew the power of our thoughts and words before that night, I learned it then. Although the driver didn’t hit me, I was diagnosed with “shaken baby syndrome,” and was awarded some visits to my chiropractor, Dr. Andrew Miller. He helped to reinforce this philosophy as he helped me to heal from the incident. For most of my life, I actually believed that my mother didn’t like me. After I let go of that anger over a single incident, it freed us up a bit. We had a conversation where she told me she was actually PROUD of me! Why was I so surprised? I had this idea in my head that I couldn’t release, until I was hit in the (behind) over and over again. And now, I have nothing but gratitude that I still have my mom, and she is so delighted to see me whenever I visit. Remember: Thoughts are things! Happy Thanksgiving to all of you.

For as long as I can remember, I’ve been able to know things about people and events that couldn’t be explained by logic. As a little girl, I knew when my grandparents would pass away and I could “speak” with them when they did pass. There were times that I spit out answers to questions before they were asked, and as you can imagine, I was looked at as weird by many and feared by some. I remember the time when someone told my mom they were worried I was a devil worshiper. I was so surprised by this reaction; because of the capacity of love I feel when I connect to what I feel is God. Even as a little girl, tears of love would overwhelm me when I communicated things that I felt were God’s words. As I learned of Jesus and God in catechism, I had a knowing of benevolence and love that seemed different from the other students and teachers. I blatantly disagreed with my catechism teachers who tried to convince me there were conditions to Jesus’ and God’s love. I remember telling my teachers that there are no conditions or judgments from God; that free will means we are loved the same, no matter our choices. When asked how I knew this, I explained that Jesus tells me at night when I pray. I still laugh at the fearlessness I had to contradict such an embedded hierarchical belief system. Not surprisingly, I was told I was wrong and didn’t know what I was talking about. My teachers stopped calling on me when I raised my hand, sat me in the back of the class and proceeded to discredit or minimize me the duration of the class. Interestingly, I didn’t think I was wrong. I thought they just didn’t know Jesus and God the way I did. I did learn to keep my thoughts to myself though. I learned very quickly to reframe my intuition and explained things I knew in logical terms, in ways others might believe I came to by using my intellect. This was easier for people to
10 w w w. B o d y M i n d S p i r i t G U I D E . c o m

understand. I tried to soften my knowing of things by saying I dreamed of them. Others were fascinated, not afraid, that I could dream of something that came true; again this was easier for them to understand. Eventually though, I sensed that others were uncomfortable with my “seeing”. Not long into my childhood, I began to hide most aspects of my intuition, psychic abilities, or (as I thought of it) my ability to “see”. For years and years, I was convinced; if I acted normal I would be happy and possibly accepted and loved by those around me. I tried to be what others wanted me to be because I knew they would be more comfortable without me knowing things. I tried to exist in systems and structures that seemed dysfunctional and harmful to me for the ultimate goal of being somewhat normal. As it goes with most of us, normal didn’t last too long, which leads me to my confession. I actually love my abilities and I no longer want to minimize or pretend that I don’t “see’, feel or know things. I want to embrace being who I Am exactly the way I Am. I love my intuition and knowing of situations before they happen. I like that I can ‘see’ people, their souls and connect with entities or angels on other dimensions. I don’t want to hide behind normal anymore. But I don’t want to scare people or you away either and I know I scare some people. I feel most people are afraid I’ll see their secrets and/or their darkness. I can. I see things people sometimes wished I didn’t. In simple terms, and I realize there is nothing simple about the feelings associated with our secrets, fears and darkness, I don’t feel the same way you do about them. I see, feel, and know that these areas of yourself need and deserve to be loved. I feel such an overwhelming urge to hold in such benevolence all of your parts; the doubts, the fears, the insecurities, the shame, and guilt along with your greatness; your joy, confidence independence determination, intelligence and compassion. I have never thought or felt to laugh, judge or make fun of anyone’s parts. Not ever. I see love. I feel love and think only love when in your presence. For so long I’ve held back feelings of love for myself and others because they didn’t seem to fit within the rigors of our overworked, linear and logical culture. But as I peeked out of the walls I tried to hide behind or fit myself within, I began to see with honor and benevolence the miraculous light or greatness within everyone. It is truly the most beautiful experience when you let someone know with your words, feelings, and behaviors that they are magnificent. They begin to open and express themselves in amazing ways. They express confidence and love when moments before there might have been frustration and sadness. It is miraculous.
to be exactly who I Am. I promise I’ve learned to discern the information I hear, feel and see to wait for permission before I blurt it out (most of the time). But can we each see the greatness in each other when we pass on the street or greet each other at the grocery store? Can we look in each other’s eyes and feel honor for our differences and similarities? Can we feel, think and express first love instead of thinking judgments? Can we greet each other without fear of being judged or rejected because we know there is a part of God within each and every one of us? This concept seems simple but to those of us who walk a loving path, it can be a challenge (and even that is simplifying it). However, trying to choose love and compassion whenever faced with anger, apathy and ignorance, can change the ripples of our experiences both personally and collectively. I’ve seen it in my own life and for others. Brenda Tringali BA, MA, MSW, RM, QTP Brenda is a co-founder of The Indigo Doors: A center for the whole being.

Choosing Your Reality
daily sets up a repeating pattern, and more events manifest to support your belief system.
By Susan deCaussin There’s so much concern over the state of the world today. Countless forms of media are continuously throwing it up in our faces, sensationalizing all of the details along the way. This can cause many to feel helpless and overwhelmed with sadness. Is the world spinning out of control? Are we destined, as the media suggests, to see the end of time?
On the other hand, when you’re headed to a fun event, or down a joyful life path, that you fully expect to be wonderful and uplifting, you also alter your belief system to coincide with that thought and, once again, the Universe assists in making this reality occur.
Some may say yes, because they are so tuned in to this way of thinking, they’ve lost sight of an alternate reality. But here’s the truth: Our reality is nothing more than a manifestation of what we believe it to be. These are powerful words with deep significance, so I’ll repeat them again: Our reality is nothing more than a manifestation of what we believe it to be. After spending the better part of the last 15 years avoiding news reports and controversy, choosing to turn away from any negative media, even at the level of recreational social media sites, my life has been changed dramatically for the better. I had originally adopted the belief system that good and bad exist in this world simultaneously, and my choice to ignore the negative stuff was simply affecting me and nobody else. I saw it as a personal decision to look the other way, believing that the bad will always exist and the only other option was to place blinders on. I’ve been told that by choosing to steer away from the daily news, I’m sticking my head in the sand. How could I possibly be a part of the solution if I’m not accepting the random, cruel acts of others to affect my perception of the world. To that I say, “Give your attention to that which you want more of.” When you turn on the evening news, you’re inviting and expecting to have turmoil presented to you. Those expectations then alter your belief system (I expect it, so I believe it), and the Universe answers by causing this “reality” to occur. Doing this
Could it be possible that we’re already living in perfection and by using our option to bring about what we think about, we are creating alternate realities, without even consciously knowing it? If this is true, then two things come to mind: First, we have the ultimate control to select the circumstances surrounding our life by directing our thoughts to that which we determine to be most desirable; and second, if everyone were able to do this, all traces of adversity would vanish, turning the world into an oasis of love and light. That said, we each have to look deep inside of our own personal belief systems to determine whether we are contributing to the light in the world or the darkness. This is an opportunity to “be what you want to see in the world”. Everything around us, from the physical to the emotional, is only present because of manifestation. I’m not able to control the thoughts and belief systems of others, as you are unable to control mine. However, it’s not by accident that we’re all having this human experience at the same time. Our choices affect more than our own personal state of being. Collectively, we have the ability to affect global change at a level we can’t even comprehend. By choosing to see the light ….you ARE the light. By choosing to see the good in the world…. the world IS good. Place your focus on goodness, light and love. Accept THIS as your reality, and IT WILL BE. The dark doesn’t exist unless we choose to believe it does. It’s there if you look for it, since the act of looking for it will manifest it into existence. So, is the world coming to an end? That all depends upon what you THINK! Expectations alter your belief system. Your belief system drives your every thought. Your thoughts will bring about the reality you live in. Surround yourself with goodness and expect more of the same. Susan is an accomplished writer, speaker, Reiki Practitioner and Medium.

Iodine and Thyroid Health By Dr. William H. Karl, D.C. Bodies utilize many different elements to maintain health. Iodine is an essential element because it isn’t manufactured by the body. While not plentiful on the planet, it’s necessary for survival. Iodine is most easily obtained if you have the luxury of living by the ocean. Just breathing in the ocean air can provide some of the iodine you need - and ocean fish, seaweed, and plants grown in the iodine-rich soil nearby tend to be more available. Ahhh…let’s go! Nutritional sources of iodine, other than seafood, include dairy products, eggs, and meat from animals whose diets contain iodine and/or are raised in pastures with iodine-rich soil. However, it’s difficult to obtain optimal amounts of iodine through diet alone. Fish used to be one of the best sources of iodine. Now we should limit the amount of fish we eat due to the mercury and hydrocarbon content (dissolved plastics in the flesh of the fish). Seaweed is another good source of iodine but it’s usually flavored with MSG to improve taste. Many people turn to supplemental iodine, but I suggest consulting with a trusted professional before beginning any form of supplementation. I recommend specific forms of iodine which we’ll discuss at the December 1st workshop. Since being discovered in seaweed in 1811, the history of iodine has taken many interesting turns. As a public measure to control goiter in the US, iodine was added to table salt in the early 1900’s. While preventing extreme deficiencies, iodized salt is NOT the best way to obtain iodine. In fact, most natural practitioners, including myself, do not recommend the use of processed salt. David Brownstein, MD, holistic medical doctor and author of many books
including, Iodine: Why You Need It and Why You Can’t Live Without It, lists iodine as being antibacterial, anticancer, antiparasitic, antiviral, and a mucolytic agent. Necessary for immune system function, it has been used successfully in treating fibrocystic breasts and other breast diseases, ovarian cysts, excess mucus production, fatigue, headaches (including migraines), hemorrhoids, sebaceous cysts, and thyroid disorders. In the Encyclopedia Britannica (19101911) the principle conditions in which iodides were valued include asthma, aneurism, arteriosclerosis, angina pectoris, gout, goiter, syphilis, haemophillia, Bright’s disease (nephritis), bronchitis, and metallic poisonings from lead and mercury. In 1998, the WHO recognized iodine deficiency as the greatest single cause of mental retardation. Iodine deficiencies have since been correlated with thyroid disorders, including Graves’ and Hashimoto’s disease, infertility, cancers of the breast and prostate, autoimmune disorders, and fibromyalgia. In the 1960’s, iodine was introduced as a dough conditioner in bread. Twenty years later, the safety of iodine was questioned and bread makers switched to bromine. Prior to this, one slice of bread contributed approximately 0.15mg of iodine, enough to offset deficiency. Since bromine is both a carcinogen and goitrogen, this was a double negative. A goitrogen is a substance that promotes goiter. Goitrogens include other halides such as fluorine and chlorine that are often (unfortunately) found in our food and water. When levels of iodine are low, these halides are absorbed in place of iodine. Perhaps another chapter should be written on why these halides are so toxic and must be avoided…. The thyroid gland is the major storage point for iodine but isn’t the only user. Iodine is necessary for thyroid hormone production as well as in the production
of all other hormones of the body. Every cell in the body needs iodine. The gastrointestinal tract, bones, salivary glands, connective tissues, the prostate, breasts, and the ovaries all need iodine to stay healthy. In the breast tissue, iodine can reverse fibrocystic breast disease while providing cancer protection. It’s interesting that iodine is also stored in the area of the brain associated with Parkinson’s disease. And this is just the short list of the benefits of iodine! The thyroid is a small butterfly-shaped gland at the base of the throat. Without sufficient iodine, the thyroid may increase to capture more iodine. Swelling of the thyroid is called goiter. If the level of iodine increases sufficiently, the thyroid may shrink back to normal size.
One symptom of goiter is difficulty swallowing. Symptoms of thyroid malfunction include foggy thinking and other changes in the body and/or skin. Early stages of hyperthyroidism (over production of thyroid hormones) often leads to weight loss, nervousness, racing heart or palpitations, heat intolerance, sweating, fatigue, tremors, and/or hypertension. Hyperthyroidism is often followed by thyroid burnout or hypothyroidism. Symptoms of hypothyroidism include foggy thinking, depression, cold hands and/or feet, constipation, dry skin, fatigue, hair loss, infertility, muscle weakness, weight gain, and puffy eyes. Hyperthyroidism and hypothyroidism share similar symptoms, and both usually respond favorably to proper iodine supplementation and nutrition. The thyroid makes four major hormones with iodine at their center: T1, T2, T3, and T4. Whether natural or synthetic, T4 transforms into T3, the biologically active form of thyroid hormone in the liver and other organs. This functional
14 w w w. B o d y M i n d S p i r i t G U I D E . c o m

&
form is called T3 prime and requires sufficient quantities of zinc and selenium. The thyroid gland also makes a little T3. Other important nutrition includes vitamin A, B-complex, C, D3, and vitamin E. T1 and T2 control fat metabolism and the concentration of water or fluids in the body. Synthetic thyroid replacements only contain T4, not T1 or T2. When prescription thyroid hormone replacement is needed, we believe that Armour Thyroid and Nature-Throid are the best choices.

In rare cases, excess iodine (i.e. dosages greater than 1 gram/day) has been associated with hyperthyroid symptoms. However, research by Guy E. Abraham, MD, demonstrates that the body protects itself from iodine overload by excreting any excess in the urine. Ingested iodine/iodide is retained by the body only in proportion to the degree of deficiency. The standard for testing iodine levels is based on this principle. I’ve only skimmed the surface of what’s known about the body’s great need for iodine. Come to our free upcoming workshops to learn more!

The Way to Mastery: How to Find Peace in Your Life and in the World (Part 2) By David Krajovic In Part 1 of this article we discussed how duality and the belief in separateness is a causal point for the problems of the world. Separateness leads to judgment and the need to make things and people as right or wrong, good or bad, win or lose. For corporations to win, the environment must lose. This is an insane way to view the world and manage our businesses and lives; yet this is what we do. Last month we discussed how compassion unites us and that we do not have to wait for tragedy to awaken us to unity. We can do so right now. The path is simple and has always been available. You just have to choose it. The Answer Lies Within Simply go within, quiet the mind and listen. Listen for whispers. Whispers from God. This is reflected in the Native American view of God. It is said that God is “The Spirit who moves through all things.” If this is so, then God is in me and in you and in our neighbor and the homeless person down the street. God is in the impoverished billions who live on only a few dollars a day. God is in the trees, the rocks, the animals, and the air we breathe. God is everywhere. And God is always speaking to us but we are too busy to hear. We must, therefore, find stillness, quiet the mind and go into the silence within if we are to change our outer experience. If you knew beyond a doubt that God was everywhere and in everything, how would you act? Who would you be? The mind cannot and never will understand the formless. In fact, it will resist your attempts at doing so since it means the mind (and its ego personality) will no longer rule your life. At the same time, though, you will no longer be ruled by any person, any circumstance or any thing. The Gifts of the Kingdom Are Yours Connecting to the God self within will set you free from all preconceived beliefs of right doing or wrongdoing. Being free means living fully in the present moment, responding consciously and powerfully to whatever arises in the moment. You will be in universal flow. You will be inspired by and conspire with Source to bring more of the good and holy so that heaven is created on earth, by you, for you, through you and within you. And all the gifts of the kingdom will be yours to enjoy.
In the words of the Sufi poet, Rumi, “Out beyond ideas of wrongdoing and rightdoing, there is a field. I’ll meet you there. When the soul lies down in that grass, … ideas, language, even the phrase ‘each other’ doesn’t make any sense.” In such a state you will move forward to bring change to the world, not with anger, righteousness and condemnation but with faith, hope and love. These are the energies that masters command. Consciousness Changes Everything With the support of the masters and through you, your rising consciousness uplifts humanity. Consciousness becomes contagious and opens the path for others to follow. Consciousness changes everything. If you want to change the quality of your relationships, then raise your consciousness. If you are tired of the current political system, then raise your consciousness. If you want to see an end to hunger, then raise your consciousness. Consciousness opens pathways unknown until its light makes them seen. Insurmountable problems suddenly have solutions. And when consciousness rises enough (through you and other likeminded souls), new forms come into matter … relationships are uplifted to a new state of joy, new politicians blessed with the consciousness of unity come into office, ways are found to feed the hungry, the earth’s environment heals. You Make A Difference In this state of awareness there is unity; there is only oneness. You have gone from the world of the relative to the absolute, the purest state of being. This is life mastery. And it is not as far away as you may think. Let go. Breathe. Be the change you wish to see in the world. Your choice to remain where you are or to raise your consciousness matters. You have much to contribute. We are the ones we have been waiting for.

COPING WITH HOLIDAY STRESS The Ultimate Family Survival Guide
my actions, and what are the costs? The more I grow in awareness, the easier it becomes to change my behaviors. I learn how to say no to this voice in my head that tells me I’m a bad person if I don’t play a certain role. 2) Take positive actions-First, don’t react to situations, or you’ll just do what you’ve always done. Instead, when confronted with a bad situation, pause and solicit the help of others before you take action. This is where it becomes a “we” process and not a “me” process. These are the people in your life you feel safe with. Those that understand and support that you’re trying to change your role. Remember, these individuals are there to support you, not judge you.
By: Thomas Gagliano The holidays are a wonderful time of year for many of us, but they can also produce a great deal of stress. Running from store to store, managing our finances, dealing with overindulged children and communicating with parents, in-laws and stubborn family members all contribute to rising holiday stress levels. And between the in-laws, ex-laws, and step-laws, just deciding which family to spend the holidays with can send us over the edge. Sometimes, returning home and rekindling the family dynamics we grew up with can be the most stressful of all. No matter what identity we have tried to shape for ourselves in the outside world, many of us are forced to face the roles we were set up to play in childhood when we go back home. For example, how many of us play the role of the People Pleaser? – Do you say yes to family and friends because saying no is too painful? What inner voice tells you that you’re a bad person when you say no
“When I look back on all these worries, I remember the story of the old man who said on his deathbed that he had had a lot of trouble in his life, most of which had never happened.” – Winston Churchill
to others? Who is the Caretaker? – Do you carry the burden of the family’s problems on your shoulders because it’s your role to take care of everything and everyone? What inner voice makes you feel guilty when asking for help? What about the Perfectionist? – Were you allowed to make mistakes in front of your family? God forbid your loved ones see you stumble at times. When you made a mistake, did you identify yourself as the mistake? Do you play a Defiant Role? –This is where you always have to be right with family members, even if it pushes them away. What inner voice tells you that you need to be right even if you push loved ones away? How many of you play the Invisible Role? - When you return home for the holidays, do you lose your voice and disappear into the background, unable to share your thoughts and feelings with your family? There are three essentials needed to change your role: Awareness, Action, and Maintenance. WITHOUT AWARENES, YOU WON’T UNDERSTAND THE WAYS TO CHANGE YOUR ACTIONS. WITHOUT ACTION, THERE WON’T BE NEWER ROLES TO MAINTAIN. 1) Grow in awareness- Why do I act the way I do? What are the payoffs for
3) Maintain these actions – If you don’t continue to maintain these new behaviors, that intrusive voice will grow louder and direct you back to old behaviors. Remember, the most important relationship we have in life is the one we have with our self. If we are not taking care of that relationship, we will sabotage all of the relationships around us. If we seek approval from those that are incapable of giving us what we deserve, then we will only find rejection and disappointment. Instead, we need to spend our time with people we feel emotionally safe with, those individuals with whom we can share our feelings without feeling judged. We deserve this.

Gratitude Allows You to Create What A Little Courtesy... you Want in Your Life I bumped into a stranger as he passed by, "Oh excuse By Faith Brower
me please" was my reply.
He said, " Please excuse me too; I wasn't really watching for you." We were very polite, this stranger and I. We went on our way and we said good-bye. But at home a different story is told, how we treat our loved ones, young and old. Later that day, cooking the evening meal, my son stood beside me very still. When I turned, I nearly knocked him down. "Move out of the way," I said with a frown. Have you ever seen two people laughing together and really enjoying each other, who look like they would never be friends, or who look like they are in need of some prosperity or maybe a good meal? You think to yourself, “Wow-I want that!” You think to yourself, “I have a nice life, get paid fairly well, and have good friends.” But you don’t feel like you enjoy your friends like these two people are enjoying each other or life in general. You want those feelings or attitudes they have. How do they do it? What do they know that you do not? The answer lies in the believing…the power of believing something first to be true before it even comes to be. All you need to do to feel as happy or full of joy as those two people is to take a moment and feel grateful for everything you have in your life. Really appreciate what you have and where you are. When you can accept where you are, you can create what you want. So, if you want to change your world outside, change your world inside. And enjoy the process. Use your thoughts to create the feelings of joy that you want. Believe you can have, be, or do what you desire. Be just as grateful for the things you receive in your mind’s image as for the things you receive in your outside life. When you create in your head and heart what you want, be just as grateful, just as loving, and just as appreciative as you will be when it happens in your reality. Create what you want in your mind, and believe it will manifest in your life. Feel the attitudes or desires on the inside first, in anticipation of your desired outcomes, and your world outside will reflect those attitudes.
He walked away, his little heart broken. I didn't realize how harshly I'd spoken. While I lay awake that night in beg, God's still small voice came to me and said, " While dealing with a stranger, common courtesy you use, but the children you love, you seem to abuse. Go and look on the kitchen floor, you'll find some flowers there by the door. Those are the flowers he broght for you. He picked them himself : yellow, white, and blue. He stood very quietly not to spoil the surprise, you never saw the tears that filled his little eyes." By this time, I was feeling very small, and then my tears began to fall. I quietly went and knelt by his bed ; " Wake up, little one, wake up," I said. " Are these the flowers you picked for me?" He smiled, " I found 'em, out by the tree. I picked 'em because they're pretty like you. I knew you'd like 'em, especially the blue." I said, " Son, I'm very sorry for the way I acted today ; I shouldn't have yelled at you that way." He said, " Oh, Mom, that's okay. I love you anyway." I said, " Son, I love you too, and I do like the flowers, especially the blue." If we died tomorrow, the company that we are working for could easily replace us in a matter of days. But the family we left behind will feel the loss for the rest of their lives. Friendly families make happy homes...

CAMU CAMU: The Amozonian Superfood By John L Chetcuti With cold and flu season upon us, many of us are turning to vitamin C and other immune boosting supplements to help ward off the seasonal scourge. Another great way to protect ourselves is to take Camu Camu, a berry from the Amazonian rain forests. Camu Camu is packed with more natural vitamin C than any other food on the planet, and provides approximately 50 times more vitamin C than an orange. Since it’s a foodbased supplement, and a not a synthetic vitamin, it has a full profile of naturally occurring minerals and amino acids which aid the body in absorbing and utilizing vitamin C. Benefits of Camu Camu 1. Inflammation - Inflammation is a major basepoint for many chronic and serious diseases, such as Alzheimers and arthritis. Powerful antioxidants (like vitamin C) have been shown to help with inflammation, particularly in the elderly or those approaching old age. The presence of inflammation can contribute to an accelerated aging process, including increased oxidative stress within the body and an increased prevalence of chronic pain.

2. Immune System - Camu Camu helps the body to properly detoxify and heal, blocking free radicals and other pathogens from entering the body. 3. Anti-Viral – Health care practitioners have reported that all forms of the Herpes virus, including shingles, have been relieved by Camu Camu. Users report that cold sores resolve in one day, genital herpes will often resolve in 48 hours, and the Epstein-Barr type of chronic fatigue will show some improvement in one or two weeks. 4. Emotional Health - Some health care practitioners have reported that Camu Camu has same-day mood balancing effects, and it can be used safely in combination with pharmaceutical antidepressants. Camu Camu’s high levels of vitamin C help your brain to produce more serotonin, a natural mood enhancer. 5. Liver Health - The powerful cocktail of antioxidants and phytochemicals in Camu Camu can help fight against diseases and malfunctions of the liver. 6. Gum and Heart Health - Camu Camu’s powerful antioxidant and antiviral properties can help fight against gum diseases like gingivitis. Having healthy gums is also important since gum health has been directly linked to heart health. 7. My personal choice for cold and flu season is DEVATM Vegan Vitamin C. It is made from Camu Camu, Acerola Cherry and Rosehips, and each tablet provides 250 mg of vitamin C made from food sources. It is also buffered with calcium so acidity is reduced in the stomach. DEVATM products have been registered as 100% vegan by the non-profit Vegan Society. This non-profit organization, which first coined the phrase “vegan,” has a strict and detailed registration process for vegan products. www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/10796569

Working With Angels and Giving Thanks By Eve Wilson Every living thing has an angel that calls it into existence, holds the essence and being of its truest self, and nurtures it toward the fulfillment of its potential. As we arrive at the season of Thanksgiving and the celebration of a year’s harvest and abundance, I’d like to inspire you to a meaningful partnership with these divine creatures, the angels! The sweet, spiritual energy of the angels is essential to our lives; they are powerful, but gentle, beautiful to spiritual senses, innocent and diligent in service and in unconditional love. The fulfillment of their purpose is often challenged by the practices of human beings who seek to control and manipulate life through industrialization, chemistry and genetic modifications. We can appreciate the reasoning behind these practices, the resistance to parasites and disease, as well as the long shelf life they provide for foods; however, we know it changes their quality, diminishing the vital life force and nutrition, and making them harder to digest. These practices also disrupt the life of the soil, water and other creatures; and the healthy bacterial state is imbalanced to a dangerous level because of them.

To help counter-balance these challenging forces that humans bring to the production of food, we can work with the angels; supporting and assisting them to bring our food, soil and water through these disruptions to a wholesome fulfillment of their true purpose, despite them. It is a simple thing to honor the angels of the food and water you consume, or prepare for others. As you choose foods for purchase, as you store them, and as you handle them to prepare meals, here is the most natural way that you can enhance their life force, nutrition and shelf life. 1) Greet the food respectfully and lovingly, remembering and naming what kind of creature it was when it was alive or in its natural state. Remember it as though it were produced in a natural and loving environment, respected, relaxed, joyful. Thank it for sharing its life with you, and thank those who brought it to you. Love it. 2) Honor and welcome the angel of the food, which is present with the food itself. Thank the angel for working with whatever natural forces nourished the foods life, including soil, sun, water, air, people and environment. Request the angel to ask the foods forgiveness for all inorganic and unloving practices; to work with the Higher Power to heal it, better than if it had been organically grown, ripened to its full nutritional value and harvested fresh now. If it is animal, that it be free range, organic and handled with love and gratitude. Give thanks for the healing of any negative state retroactively to its start in life. Welcome it to be as delicious, full flavored, nutritious and fresh as can be. Love it. Take a few seconds to recall its best flavors, textures and nutritional gifts; this helps the angel to strengthen those qualities. 3) Thank the angel for doing this, and ask that it will stay fresh, nutritious and delicious until it can all be eaten with no spoilage or loss of quality and flavor (up to a week will usually work). Preparing food that has been healed in this way becomes a service to the world, strengthening the true qualities of others of the same life forms as those you are blessing and eating. It reminds them of who they are truly, and helps them sustain the joyful spirit they were designed to carry. Eating food that is loved and joyful helps you be more loving and joyful also. Such a gift, and so much to be thankful for! You may not have time to do this every time you prepare food. One busy mother I know blesses all the food in her refrigerator together, rather than each item individually. I like doing the individuals when I have time, because I feel so much love; it is a very joyful exchange of energy, and makes my life feel richer. It also enhances the flavor and vital energy of the food better. You can do this for your water too! The same can be done for food and drink others have prepared for you. You can do it in advance of the meal, by imagining doing it when you are there, if you prefer. Sensitive people may get tummy aches or heartburn when eating out; it may be the cook or server, not the food itself! Include in your request to the angel, that any negativity from the preparer or server be blessed and healed. This Thanksgiving, may your feast be filled with the deeper beauty and life that the angels bring!

Sometimes it’s how you say it! Those Ancestors! The Taylor's were proud of their family tradition. Their ancestors had travelled to America with the Pilgrim Fathers on the Mayflower. They had included Congressmen, successful entrepreneurs, famous sports people and television stars. They decided to research and write a family history, something for their children and grandchildren. They found a specialist genealogist and writer to help them. Only one problem arose - how to handle Great Uncle Jefferson Taylor who was executed in the electric chair. The writer said she could handle the story tactfully. When the book appeared the section about Jefferson read: Great Uncle Jefferson Taylor occupied a chair of applied electronics at an important government institution, he was attached to his position by the strongest of ties, and his death came as a great shock. Happy Thanksgiving To you and yours!

“What the Bleep Do We Know: Fans Get Surpirsed... By Deirdre Hade My husband, Will Arntz, who created, What the Bleep Do We Know!? got the brave idea to compile my poetic writings and mystical experiences with the photos of award‑winning photographer, Endre Balogh, into a coffee table size gift book. He wanted anyone on any page reading to have a journey of the divine. When Will came to me with his idea, I said, “Great, let’s do it.” And then he said, “No, it’s not let’s do it, it’s I’m doing it,” and he actually would not let me see what he was doing until he chose the passages and photos - putting them together to create a storyline like a movie. Then I jumped in to edit. Because Will made What the Bleep, I trusted his insight and artistic acumen. Will chose my poem, In The Honey Jars, as the backbone of the Surprise story. Together with Endre’s photos, Will brought life to my writings in ways that were well, a surprise to me! The title The (Not So) Little Book of Surprises was Will’s insight that transformation always comes in the form of a surprise. You see we can study, worship, have a practice, but when those moments of awakening of awareness, the “aha”– when that happens, it is always a surprise. Awakening comes in surprise moments. Since I was young, I have been visited by angels, saints and different illuminated beings. They speak to me, and I’ve seen them with my own eyes. The light beings feel strongly that they want their November 2016
voices heard, they want to bring hope. They want to share a map for all of us to get through the changing times with as much grace as possible. This map is inside of us. The (Not So) Little Book of Surprises is a guide to one’s inner map of wisdom and awakening. Irradiance is the ability to radiate an energy that is felt and/or experienced into a larger context. When angels, light beings, God speaks to me, I feel a palatable presence, like a weighted garment falling over my shoulders – my body changes. I go into a state of bliss and ecstasy, Irradiance, when I hear their voices. I work hard to clear my mind so that I hear their teaching accurately. I make sure that the light beings I hear are who they say they are. I then speak what they tell me, or I write it down. Surprises is a combination of my own wisdom, and what I’ve learned from God and the light beings. Surprises was born from my poetic understanding of the greater reality perspective in our human experience. Surprises brings into play our life experience with the divine realms. I say to people if Surprises rings true for you, great. If not, that’s okay too. The Book of Surprises is like rock‑and‑roll. You get the most when you enjoy the ride. Be in the magic, the insight, the inspiration – Surprises is a melody of spirit and beauty in the mystical. This is how we overcome our grief and our loss in an uncertain world. People have said that Surprises is a “children’s book” for adults because of the nature photos and stellar images. I agree with this because children are still filled with wonder and excitement at living. We each are longing to connect to the inner state of wonder and
w w w. B o d y M i n d S p i r i t G U I D E . c o m
enthusiasm for life. Surprises addresses this. Children today are aware, awake, and they’re looking to be validated for their knowledge. They have an ability to feel and sense the natural world that is outside of the intellectual twodimensional processing. These kids know – and they’re being born by the millions – they have come to help us heal our world. They come in a vibration of love. Indigo children, crystal children, all children, are aware and sensitive. They need different kinds of schools, they need to be honored for what they see and know. They need to be shown that we welcome them and that we’re grateful that they’re here. Surprises validates this - it’s a family book to sit around and read together. I’m ecstatic with how The (Not So) Little Book of Surprises turned out. I love reading it myself. When I read it I have a freshly new spiritual experience. I actually learn, even though it comes from “my work.” I experience something, I see something deeper every time. I’ve been asked, “Why read this book?” I answer, because we are here as consciousness to experience the third dimension. And in that experience we are here to create the magic, the miracle and the beauty – the justice, the truth – of what it really means to be human. And that’s our journey, and it’s a bumpy ride. We meet obstacles, but that’s really the journey of our human soul. The (Not So) Little Book of Surprises was created for you to have an awesome experience.

Through the Portals of Time Through the Portals of Time is a wonderful book full of information, written by Patricia A. Nelson and Flora L. Ash, two local MidMichigan authors. The book takes the reader on a journey of enlightenment through time from the beginning to the present and even highlights what the future may hold. Each chapter is filled with information and answers to many questions that one may have. The questions regarding who we are and why we are here are answered. Other questions such as who or what is God and what the “others” and “made in our image” mean as found in Genesis. These questions are also answered. The seven days of creation are discussed and added as are various stories of creation by other authors. The authors also look at why certain people changed their names in the Bible and explain the reasoning behind these name changes. The story of the Garden of Eden is reviewed and explains why it was Eve and not Adam who ate the fruit from the Tree of Knowledge. Evolution and involution of man is also given as well as the aspect of animal soul groups. Evolution is ongoing and does not stop at death but continues on, and on and on. Death and NDE’s, or near death experiences, are also looked at. The authors explain what happens when we die and tells you about the invisible worlds that exist beyond this physical plane. Since evolution does not stop at physical death but continues, so does communication with those whom are deceased. The physical body has
ceased to exist but the essence of the individual continues to live on and is able to communicate with those still living on the Earth plane. Many individuals seek out mediums and psychics in order to have communication with their loved ones who are on the other side. The authors talk about this and also give you stories of those hearing that small still voice from within. Another interesting point in the book is “are we our brother’s keeper?” With all the turmoil going on in the world today one may wonder if this is the case. Once you have read what the authors say about this you will have your answer. Oftentimes we wonder, how does the universe work? We know that man has his laws to keep things in order, so wouldn’t you assume that the universe also has laws to keep things working smoothly? A few of these Universal Laws are discussed. Nearing the end of the book the unity of mankind is discussed; you may wonder, what does that mean? It does not mean that one group of individuals is better than another or that one’s religious beliefs are better than another. What it does mean is that all men, women and children are to be united. We are to come together as one. A supplemental section has been added to aid the reader in his or her search for enlightenment. The White Light of Protection has been given to help one in protecting themselves, and those around them. Also, the Effective Prayer by James V. Goure has been added with permission from the Light Center United Research, plus other information. Through the Portals of Time would be a wonderful Christmas gift or gift for any occasion for yourself or someone else, and can be purchased through Amazon. com, BarnesandNoble.com and Balboa Press.com.

Finding Inspiration
Pauline
GRANDKIDS...
By Abby Lippitt Has your creative well run dry? Are you at a loss of what to do? Feeling that your old influences are just too derivative? Are you feeling the desire to do something completely new, but drawing a blank no matter what you do? Well, here’s the answer for you: Do something you love, just for you! Here’s one of the big Secrets you should know. What you are looking for is not where you might expect it to be. You can search high and you can search low. You can travel the globe, you can explore all there is to see. Sure, it’s all full of fun and festivities, but it is still lacking you see. True creativity is not something to be found without, but within; it’s Inside you! How to find your inspiration? Ask yourself: What makes me happy? What do I love? What makes my heart soar?

ROCK OF THE MONTH: Sugilite
BRIDAL
Jennifer VanderWal Sugilite was first discovered in 1944 in Japan. Small deposits have been found in Canada, but most of the sugilite available today is from South Africa. It is usually found in masses, rarely forming prismatic crystals. Its color ranges include various shades of purples and magentas with black. The black in sugilite is manganese. Almost everyone is deficient in manganese; it helps with muscle cramping, headaches and pain. Just holding the sugilite on the area, the manganese will absorb the pain. Sugilite is one of my favorite stones because it has so many great benefits. It is a excellent stone for empaths and sensitive people, shielding one in a violet bubble of protection. It holds the energy of the violet flame, helping to transmute all lower vibrational energy, fears and chaos to a higher vibration of ascension, oneness and unity. It has the same vibration we had before we were born, raising our vibration to the same vibration that we had when we chose our life path. It is very beneficial for all ages, especially those born in the time periods during the indigo and crystal children. Often, indigo and crystal children have anxiety over not remembering their life path and purpose. Once we have woken our dreams, remembered our life purpose, sugilite helps us to ground our dreams in the physical realm, aiding us in attracting whatever we need to follow our life purpose. It is also beneficial for helping us remember our dreams at night and to bring guidance through them. Sugilite floods us with a calming peaceful energy, restoring and revitalizing our pituitary, adrenal glands and nervous system. Its deep violet colors make it beneficial November 2016
YOUR DIAMOND SOURCE
when used on the crown and third eye chakras. Sugilite opens our crown chakra to help us channel more light to this planet. It aids us with all types of change and our planetary transformation. One easy way to remember your life path using sugilite, is during meditation. Place one piece of sugilite on the third eye chakra during meditation for 15 minutes everyday for 30 days. It can also be beneficial to carry it on you in your auric field. Allow your physical body and auras to vibrate at the same vibration you had when you choose your life path, giving you complete cellular memory recall. Be open and receptive to whatever you feel, see or hear; some of the things you receive may be new concepts and ideas for you. Just allow yourself to be open to everything you receive. Have fun!

Falls Hidden Mysteries all is the 4th and final major Sun Cycle of the year and it means a time of changing Focus and direction in your life. From the Equinox, your consciousness moves slowly inward as the nights lengthen and the days shorten. Follow your natural inclination to turn inward and you'll find the wisdom, riches and inspiration for your next cycle (year) ahead. The chaotic times of summer and rapid growth means lots of changes - some loss and some gain. What's next? Fall is the time of harvesting, and also the time to take stock of what you harvest. If your returns this season are not what you hoped, now is the time to reflect, find your balance and look for what within you must change to assure greater success in the coming year. This is the ending of the annual Sun cycle and for many, November 1st marks the beginning of a New Year. For others, Winter Solstice marks New Year’s beginnings, with New Year on January 1st designated as the day of change to the new. www.quick-good-fortune.com
Nirvana By Nancy Lynn Nirvana (commonly associated with Buddhism) is the goal that the soul seeks to eventually reach to becoming enlightened. The literal translation of Nirvana means “to blow out” or to put out the fire of greed and loathing within ourselves and focus on the expansion of the mind. The journey to enlightenment can be followed by maintaining one’s way on the eightfold path, which is used to transition the soul into further developed stages. According to Buddhist, the soul will continually reincarnate in order to seek the knowledge necessary to move on to the next stage. Nirvana is the end result, the equivalent of heaven where knowledge reigns and all suffering ceases to exist. In order to fully understand the eightfold path we must first recognize the four noble truths. These truths are sacred to Buddhists and must be followed in order to eventually reach the end of the reincarnating process. While the eightfold path is the last of the four noble truths, the first three consist of The nature of suffering (dukkha), Sufferings origins (tanha), possibility of Suffering’s cessation (the possibility of a cure) followed by The cessation of suffering, which states the eightfold path is the solution to all suffering. Now these four truths hold the basic ideas that to live is to suffer, suffering is caused by desire, suffering can be overcome and following the path will lead you to the solution. Now what is this path you ask? It is eight paradigms that may be retaught to oneself. The eight being: 1. right view, seeing things as they really are 2. right intention, changing your intent changes our experience of life 3. right speech, vocalizing our support for spiritual awareness 4. right action, acting in a way that is both smart and compassionate 5. right livelihood, working to move forward on one’s spiritual journey 6. right effort, having much vigor for spiritual enlightenment 7. right concentration, practicing meditation to focus the mind 8. right mindfulness, to be fully present in the moment For Buddhist these practices will lead them to salvation. The ultimate goal is to have completed these to open one’s self to Nirvana. We cannot achieve this by means of willing it nor having reconciled notions of how the world should be and should not be. It is the truth of what we work to achieve with each lifetime we move through. It can and has been achieved while living on this earth plane and is a state of function that allows things to be exactly how they are with total acceptance. I ask myself on an ongoing basis, How can I work towards this truth within. Nancy Lynn, Take one of our workshops and we will help you discover more about yourself and show you step by step how to do it on your own. I’m not claiming that this workshop is going to make anyone an expert, though we hope that it will give you a nudge in the right direction. For info please go to: www.NancyOTE.com or email blueraven318@gmail.com. or 571-989-2408.

During the Rwanda Genocide it was the local gang member called Regan that stood up for the Tutis being killed. It was not a church going, law abiding citizen that stopped the babies and women from being killed. Why does it take a rebel spirit to choose love...and take action? It takes a rebel spirit to love, because many times this choice means going against societal obsessions to get revenge, be right, or dominate. Choosing love is a radical act of personal responsibility because it invites a metabolizing of limiting subconscious beliefs that shape ones identity. Opening to the magnificence and brilliance within, requires throwing your current self-identity into the fire of love. Most choose comfort and security, over real freedom and joy. If we have not taken a deep dive into our core cultural and family beliefs we will naturally respond from our programming in times of stress. We don’t realize there is no such thing as neutral. If we don’t actively look within daily, then other people’s thoughts and feelings will fill our space. Our unexamined perceptions shape our reality and effect our biology (epigenetics). Seeing the omni-presence of God starts with how we see ourselves. Seeing one’s own innocence requires a shift in perception from duality to non-duality. (Duality: black-white, wrong-right, human-divine, you-me. Non-duality: a love that includes all things.) Non-dual perception requires a courageous humble look into one’s heart. Non-duality is an awareness that God IS all things. Embodying non-duality takes inner work. “The old testament and many other wisdom traditions declare God IS all things,” says Father Richard Rhor. Our hate, pain, and violence are actually different expressions of God. God is either ‘omni’ meaning all and everywhere, or not. It is radical to accept that nothing within you can be separate from God. There is no logic to hate. The heart unites, the mind divides. Hate seen from the heart (non-duality) will allow you to see
36 w w w. B o d y M i n d S p i r i t G U I D E . c o m
November 2016
the harmony in it. Hate seen from the heart actually inspires you to serve others. Stuck in duality, a person is fighting at the level of conditions, and unknowingly empowering the problem. Grounded in non-dual love, a person has the capacity to act and think from a broader perspective. Loving all parts of oneself radically shifts people out of wrestling with circumstance. Non-dual love is not weak or mushy. Opening to loving all parts of oneself, you become the solution and hold a vibrational set point of possibility. While supporting a family member who is in the public mental health system, I was reminded that what I teach is so counter-culture. When asked by the traditional psychologist why my family member is the way she is, I rattled off all the traumas and parental influence. The doctor then looked me in the eye and said, “Why are you not sick!?” I replied, “Because I am not my past, nor the wounds from my past. I believe healing is possible.” To which the doctor gave me a disagreeing “umph.” I then asked if there were supportive groups that my family member could access. The doctor then looked at my family member and identified the family member as her illness by saying, “I have 30 years of experience, the mental disease will just get worse.” The doctor did not see my family member as a person, and certainly not as a Soul having a human experience. Where was November 2016
Love or God in this session? Why was my family member being identified as her illness? We can only give what we let ourselves receive. This is why continual self-love and inner work is a huge gift to those around you. If a person who is “helping” does not see someone from a non-dual perspective, they are doing harm. This is independent of what healing modality they are using. Sixteen years ago I did not know what a rebel I was being by writing and teaching about self acceptance. Recently finding a dance picture of myself at seven years of age, I guess I always had a tendency to not follow peer pressure (I’m the one with the attitude on the right). But, it wasn’t until two near-death experiences and life “shattering me open” in my early twenties, that I was able to see that God was not just in all things...God was ALL things. In my awareness that no-thing was separate from God, people began to spontaneously heal. At first, I thought I was some type of special healer. Then I realized we ALL have the power to heal another, or hurt another, based on how we see ourselves.
We only need a small percentage of the population to shift into a non-dual love to effect the environment, politics and general population. The abolition of slavery, women’s suffrage, and the civil rights movement did NOT happen from the majority consensus. A small minority of people calling upon their rebel spirit can make a big change. Are you willing to be a rebel for love today? Yes? Then choose to fully and completely love all parts of yourself. Let God and Be God.

The 32 Levels of Conscious, Intellect, and Wisdom The 32 paths of wisdom are related to the word ‘heart’. In Hebrew, the word for heart is Läv – בלthat has the gematria value of 32.
There Is Only the Now By Miche Lame’ Time only exists in your mind. According to Albert Einstein and others, time and space are not separate entities. They are in the same space, that’s why we call it the “space-time continuum”. As that is true, doesn’t it stand to then realize that you yourself are timeless, and in multiple dimensions at the same time? That you have a self in 400 BC, one in 1650, one now, and, in fact, one in every day and age; that you can experience life from multiple views and perceptions at once? And, wouldn’t this imply that we are here to learn from our experiences and to increase our consciousness? As we become conscious of our thoughts and the emotions behind them, we can change our behaviors and perceptions of our experiences. Being vibrational beings, if we realize that our emotions are only energetic vibrations, and that we can change them, our thoughts change, our perceptions change, and so does our behavior. Taking our knowledge that there is no such thing as time, it would appear that all our lifetimes are energetically connected and thus change also. There is only the now. In the past, at the time, we would’ve said we were in the now, in the future, at the point were we are asked, it will be now. That is what being is all about, we are always here, now. Just being. There is no other moment but now, so whatever you do, it is now. You can’t do something now yesterday or tomorrow. All you can do is do and be in the now, yet what you choose to do and be shows up in your future when you receive the consequences, or reap what you’ve sown, positive or negative. So choose your perceptions, emotions, thoughts and behavior with care and mindfulness. Changing things in the material does
not last long. Only by changing our vibration, which affects our emotions and perceptions, which then leads to our thoughts, and then to our chosen actions. You can never change your life for long by forcefully changing your material life, gaining items, a better job, that gorgeous mate, nor all the money in the world if your inner self, your personal vibration and emotions, perceptions and thoughts are not in alignment with that abundance and love. So, be aware of your emotions and thoughts. They bring you what you experience. Keep your thoughts in harmony with how you envision your life, now and in the future. The Creator will give you exactly what you envision, just make sure your foundation is healthy and its’ vibrations are in accordance with divine laws regarding abundance, love. Your vibrations will attract what you vibrate to you, and your emotions, perceptions, thoughts and behaviors are signposts to guide you on your way. Each day is another portal into your now, past and future. What we choose to do vibrationally affects all our timelines. And as we are vibrational beings, we reap what we sow, so our today, in this moment, is a result of our past choices. Today, we can mindfully choose what we do by listening to our inner wisdom. This gives us the power to be the guide to our life and the abundance and love we desire, accomplishing our goals and becoming our actualized self, fulfilling our full potential.

Days of Awe By Dr. Michael Abramsky The 10 days between the Jewish New Year (Rosh Hashanah) and the Day of Repentance (Yom Kippur) are called the Days of Awe. According to Jewish midrash (Commentary), on these 10 days the distance between man and God is most narrow and this provides an opportunity to be close to God, in spirit and dialogue. Central to these days is the concept that God in Heaven has three books which he opens during these days. One book is for the righteous, one for the wicked. Upon opening the book which contains the names of the righteous, those people are inscribed immediately into the Book of Life; the wicked into the Book of Death. One Book is for those who are in-between. For those, God’s judgment is suspended until Yom Kippur, the Day of Atonement. During these 10 days we gain God’s grace and admittance into the book of the righteous by our efforts toward repentance. Commentators have likened this to a type of trial, where the focus is on future deeds, rather than past actions. The Hebrew name for repentance is teshuva, which literally means “to return”. It signifies our need to return to God from the distractions of the ego, our self-absorption. That is true redemption, when we put God’s needs above our own. From a traditional ethical perspective, violations occur when God’s rules (the mitzvoth) are violated by man; from a spiritual perspective violations occur when we cater to our ego needs rather than the transcendent needs of God. Transcendent needs are the welfare of others, our community, of history and the best interests of our people. Teshuva includes three steps: 1) acknowledgment of our misdeeds. We must examine our past behaviors and judge them through God’s eyes as proper or improper. 2) Compensating others. Compensation may be monetary or in
Miche Lame’ offering: Hypnotherapy Intuitive Counseling Self Acceptance Healing
the form of an apology. And, 3) A commitment to change. It is imperative that in future similar situations we will not repeat the same mistakes. Thus God’s presence on earth is manifested through correct behavior. On the spiritual level we participate in a relationship of “awe” with our God. The term “awe” is the way many Jewish scholars describe man’s relationship to God. The closest word in Hebrew is yirah which signifies both wonderment and fear of God. According to Jewish theology, God is unknowable, as he is not of this world. He is not accessible through our senses, and we cannot even use our thinking to understand him. God is responsible for those events not subject to the laws of this world, most notably whether we will be born and when we die. So how do we relate to what we cannot understand? We experience awe, wonderment toward Him mixed with fear at defying His will. The sense of fearful wonderment is unique and only manifests itself in the man-God relationship. It is this body-mind understanding of God, a unique experience which is transformative. Repentance reflects the two streams of Judaism. The first stream is that of laws. In this tradition we bond with God by following his mitzvoh , or commandments. This is the tradition of Moses. The second trend is Abrahamic, it is the faith tradition, where we bond with God through a type of primal trust, an emotional experience of wonderment and fear.

Author and television host, Dr. Garth Davis advocating the use of the plant based diet against obesity, and to helping people achieve optimal health and weight management. November, 10, 2016- 6:30pm - 8:30pm, Seaholm High School Auditorium As a leader in the field of bariatric medicine, Dr. Garth Davis, MD was again recently recognized as a Texas Monthly Super Doc and stars with his father, Dr. Robert Davis, on the hit show docureality medical series, BIG MEDICINE. His recently published bestseller, Proteinaholic is available in bookstores nationwide. Dr. Garth Davis, MD graduated top 10% of is class at the Baylor College of Medicine in Texas, and did his surgical residency at the University of Michigan. While in Michigan, Dr. Davis underwent extensive training in general surgical disciplines, specializing in laparoscopic procedures. He is certified by the American Board of Surgery and is a Fellow of the American College of Surgeons and a Fellow of the American Society for Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery. Dr. Davis is a recognized expert in initial bariatric procedures, surgery, and is frequently asked to give lectures to both patient and physician audiences alike. Although Dr. Davis is nationally-known as a bariatric surgeon, he now advocates the use of the plant based diet against obesity, and to help people achieve optimal health and weight management. The doctor became his own patient. At the time, he was suffering from high cholesterol, high blood pressure and a fatty liver. He was headed towards a future plagued by obesity and chronic illness. Yet not surprising given the

demanding hours of the surgeon lifestyle, lack of exercise, a preference for salty, fatty foods, and the convenience of fast food options in the hospital cafeteria. He adopted a very low carb, low to no fruit, high protein diet and it failed him, like it has failed so many others! He knew there had to be a better solution. And his patients needed help beyond knee-jerk surgery. Finally ready for a personal change, he took it upon himself to research nutrition. Adopting a plant-based lifestyle absolutely revolutionized his health beyond what he could have imagined. Not only did he drop the weight, all of his blood markers normalized. His allergies vanished. His sleep improved, his energy levels skyrocketed and he got off his statin medications. In his latest book, Proteinaholic, Dr. Garth Davis as a doctor who runs a large surgical and medical weight-loss clinic in Houston, is on the front lines of the battle against obesity. “I witness daily the negative impact of the so-called experts’ ill-designed diet plans as patients come to my office in dire need of help, having tried all the famous high-protein diet plans multiple times,” states Dr. Davis. “I have treated thousands of people for obesity and obesity-related disorders, and I have learned what works and what doesn’t.” In Dr. Davis new book he outlines, what doesn’t work is massive amounts of animal protein. Davis states what does work is a plant-based diet— not necessarily vegan, but featuring far smaller amounts of animal foods—with the vast majority of calories coming gain.
Dr. Davis own quest led him down a deep research hole to identify the ultimate human diet to maximize and maintain weight loss; optimize human health; and prevent (and even reverse) lifestyle disease both for himself and his patients.

Gut Flora
and if I had taken better care of myself prior to ten years ago, so I didn’t have to have a tooth pulled at that time. I can vouch that my youngest children who still live with me have NEVER had an antibiotic and they are 12 and 14 years old now.
By Sherry Yale, D.C. What is gut flora and how important is it?
Our intestines contain a virtual forest of organisms that aide digestion, participate in immune protection and even manufacture many vitamins within our body. Yes, our body can manufacture certain vitamins! Isn’t that wonderful! In particular, our friendly bacteria produce B vitamins, which are so vital in this day and age to help us deal with stress. Many of you have heard of these friendly bacteria in our intestines, called, Probiotics. These include Acidophilus and Bifidus, to name just two, but there are many, many strains. The friendly bacteria, probiotics, that are so valuable, are killed off by many things in our current culture, such as antibiotics, chlorinated water, oral contraceptives and even stress, among many other things.
Did you know that 60% of our immune system is contained within our intestines? That’s right. And in my opinion and observations, taking an antibiotic bypasses and weakens our immune system. Taking probiotics after antibiotics is vital. The quality of the probiotic is critical. Even in my office when I supplement a person a probiotic, I have three different highquality types in my office and not everyone needs the same kind. So, even with the best products, they are not ideal for everyone all the time.

Broad spectrum antibiotics particularly kill off the bacteria that control cholesterol levels, so much so that antibiotic-treated animals have higher blood cholesterol levels. What a problem this is today! What a chain reaction this creates to cause other health problems and further medication use. What concerns and frustrates me most about antibiotics is their indiscriminate use and over-use. Thank goodness we have them; they are invaluable at times, but how often? I can see them being used with a surgery, with a tooth extraction, or with a severe acute infection. I personally have only had antibiotics twice in the past 36 years and I feel that these could have been prevented if I knew more about natural health at 15

Spiritual Horoscopes By Aluna Michaels, M.A. Scorpio (Oct. 23 – Nov. 21) — Happy birthday Scorpio! Give yourself the gift of prosperity by clearing out possessions that are old, worn out or no longer represent who you’re becoming. Do the same with beliefs about yourself. Toss out thoughts like discarding old clothes! Write goals and affirmations about what you’d like to accomplish this birth year. Meditate and visualize that future. Say your statements aloud in the mirror so you begin to believe your worth of living that new reality! Sagittarius (Nov. 22 – Dec. 21) — You can make new friends, or even find ways current friends have a deeper connection with you than previously thought! Practicing gratitude improves your mindset which is usually cheery, but might be down lately. Neuroscience now sees that focusing on gratitude and also writing positive things improves brain chemistry after trauma and challenges. Focus on the good and it will expand — especially your finances! Capricorn (Dec. 22 – Jan. 19) — Work on releasing “old stories” around love. Forgive yourself, previous partners, and even current connections so that you can open to more profound commitments and happiness! Also honor your body for its’ strength and you’ll notice health
improvements, even with long-standing issues. Spend time doing something fun each day and make a social plan once a week to further open your heart and mind to joy! Aquarius (Jan. 20 – Feb. 18) — Mars in your sign brings energy, enthusiasm and clarity! This is a once every two year recommitment to your fitness, whether that be physical (exercise or food choices), mental (fighting negative thought patterns) or spiritual (daily meditation?!). You can also feel surprisingly sexy and meet a new partner or spice up your current connection! You might also have good news at work that leads to more money and more prestige. Pisces (Feb. 19 – March 20) — Mars is the planet of energy, and also of anger. As a Pisces, it’s crucial to periodically comb your subconscious for repressed rage that leads to helplessness, anxiety and unhappiness. This month and next are perfect for clearing out the “resentment storage bin”! Meditating, journaling and practicing forgiveness techniques gives a burst of health and joy. Relationships improve as will your sense of personal empowerment! Aries (March 21 – April 19) — Spiritually, this month helps regain your trust in abundance. This can mean financial prosperity or emotional intimacy. You might even become interested in learning about sacred sexuality. In general, the theme is how the spiritual is contained within everything material — that the Divine is everywhere. Committing to daily meditation rapidly increases your intuition and confidence in your internal guidance. Connect with friends who have the same life perspective. Taurus (April 20 – May 20) — You can start a new relationship, or experience healing in your present partnership.
Either way, your bond will be about greater commitment, trust and steady passion rather than drama. Clear communication is essential and creates safety. Meditate alone or together to heal past issues about intimacy wounds or fears. Also, Mars can bring a new job offer, or an exciting work project that reinspires your career. Gemini (May 21 – June 20) — Any health concerns you’re having, including obsessive thinking, eating issues or intense work pressures, try a daily spiritual practice to get insights and healing. Whether meditation, yoga, visualizations, qigong or prayer, consistency brings changes! You can also make a major relationship commitment that brings up abandonment fears. These memories are rising so they can be acknowledged, released and no longer hold you down in subconscious ways. Cancer (June 21 – July 22) — You deserve love and intimacy! Open your heart to new relationships, no matter your past “failures”. Forgive yourself and others so you can begin anew. Even current partnerships can heal and blossom now. You can also remove blocks to sexual passion or enjoyment. If you have financial issues, especially credit card debt, you can face things squarely and begin a payment plan. In all areas of your life, confronting fear dispels shame and allows confidence and joy to flow in! Leo (July 23 – Aug. 22) — You could be feeling lonely or isolated in your relationship. Meditate or take quiet time before talking with your partner so you won’t come across confrontational. Is it possible that they are busy, overwhelmed or distracted with something in their life which isn’t about you and that you’re taking things personally? Use your free time to be active with sports or dance; visit a museum; play with pets; go to extra yoga classes. Things will smooth out and you’ll feel more secure and in love!

Virgo (Aug. 23 – Sept. 22) — Even though you might be very busy with work, make time to be with your partner and family. Mars is bringing extra energy. Don’t use it to worry or overthink. Instead, be active with loved ones, and also try challenging forms of yoga or other mind/body modalities. Meditate and be grateful for your body and the wonderful feats it accomplishes every moment. Relationships flourish as you get out of your head and share your passion with others! Libra (Sept. 23 – Oct. 22) — You’re not held back by your relationship past! Even if you had a dysfunctional family and/or “failed” partnerships, you can have insights into the root of love life challenges and make choices to move in better directions. A new connection can be starting, or a current one will feel renewed. Talk about ways you both can improve communication so things run smoother. You can also have a brilliant idea that leads to increased prosperity or maybe a new job offer. Aluna Michaels is a secondgeneration astrologer and soul evolutionist practitioner.

Thankful For The Thorns Sandra felt as low as the heels of her Birkenstocks as she pushed against a November gust and the florist shop door. Her life had been easy, like a spring breeze. Then, in the fourth month of her second pregnancy, a minor automobile accident stole her ease. During this Thanksgiving week, she would have delivered a son. She grieved over her loss. As if that weren’t enough, her husband’s company threatened a transfer. Then her sister, whose holiday visit she coveted, called saying she could not come. What’s worse, Sandra’s friend infuriated her by suggesting her grief was a God-given path to maturity that would allow her to empathize with others who suffer. “Had she lost a child? No - she has no idea what I’m feeling,” Sandra shuddered. Thanksgiving? “Thankful for what?” she wondered. For a careless driver whose truck was hardly scratched when he rear-ended her? For an airbag that saved her life but took that of her child? “Good afternoon, can I help you?” The flower shop clerk’s approach startled her. “Sorry,” said Jenny, “I just didn’t want you to think I was ignoring you.” “I . . . . I need an arrangement.” “For Thanksgiving?” Sandra nodded. “Do you want beautiful but ordinary, or would you like to challenge the day with a customer favorite I call the ‘Thanksgiving Special’?” Jenny saw Sandra’s curiosity and continued. “I’m convinced that flowers tell stories, that each arrangement insinuates a particular feeling. Are you looking for something that conveys gratitude this Thanksgiving?” “Not exactly!” Sandra blurted. “Sorry, but in the last five months, everything that could go wrong has.” Sandra regretted her outburst but was surprised when Jenny said, “I have the perfect arrangement for you.” The door’s small bell suddenly rang. “Barbara, hi!” Jenny said. She politely excused herself from Sandra and walked toward a small workroom. She quickly reappeared carrying a massive arrangement of green bows, and long-stemmed thorny roses. Only, the ends of the rose stems were neatly snipped, no flowers. “Want this in a box?” Jenny asked. Sandra watched for Barbara’s response. Was this a joke? Who would want rose stems and no flowers! She waited for laughter, for someone to notice the absence of flowers atop the thorny stems, but neither woman did. “Yes, please. It’s exquisite.” said Barbara. “You’d think after three years of getting the special, I’d not be so moved by its significance, but it’s happening again. My family will love this one. Thanks.” Sandra stared. “Why so normal a conversation about so strange an arrangement?” she wondered. “Ah,” said Sandra, pointing. “That lady just left with, ah . . . “ “Yes?” “Well, she had no flowers!” “Yep. That’s the Special. I call it the “Thanksgiving Thorns Bouquet.” “But, why do people pay for that?” In spite of herself she chuckled. “Do you really want to know?” “I couldn’t leave this shop without knowing. I’d think about nothing else!” “That might be good,” said Jenny. “Well,” she continued, “Barbara came into the shop three years ago feeling very much like you feel today. She thought she had very little to be thankful for. She had lost her father to cancer, the family business was failing, her son was into drugs, and she faced major surgery.” “Ouch!” said Sandra. “That same year, I lost my husband.

“I’m a Christian, Sandra. I’ve always thanked God for good things in life and I never thought to ask Him why good things happened to me. But, when bad stuff hit, did I ever ask! It took time to learn that dark times are important. I always enjoyed the flowers of life but it took thorns to show me the beauty of God’s comfort. You know, the Bible says that God comforts us when we’re afflicted and from His consolation we learn to comfort others.” Sandra gasped. “A friend read that passage to me and I was furious! I guess the truth is, I don’t want comfort. I’ve lost a baby and I’m angry with God.” She started to ask Jenny to “go on” when the door’s bell diverted their attention. “Hey, Phil!” shouted Jenny as a balding, rotund man entered the shop. She softly touched Sandra’s arm and moved to welcome him. He tucked her under his side for a warm hug. “I’m here for twelve thorny long-stemmed stems!” Phil laughed, heartily. “I figured as much,” said Jenny. “I’ve got them ready.” She lifted a tissue-wrapped arrangement from the refrigerated cabinet. “Beautiful,” said Phil. “My wife will love them.” Sandra could not resist asking, “These are for your wife?” Phil saw that Sandra’s curiosity matched his when he first heard of a Thorn Bouquet. “Do you mind me asking, Why thorns?” “In fact, I’m glad you asked,” He said. “Four years ago my wife and I nearly divorced. After forty years, we were in a real mess, but we slogged through, problem by rotten problem. We rescued our marriage - our love, really. Last year, at Thanksgiving, I stopped in here for flowers. I must have mentioned surviving a tough process because Jenny told me that for a long time she kept a vase of rose stems
--- stems! --- As a reminder of what she learned from ‘thorny’ times. That was good enough for me. I took home stems. My wife and I decided to label each one for a specific thorny situation and give thanks for what the problem taught us. I’m pretty sure this stem review is becoming a tradition.” Phil paid Jenny, thanked her again and as he left, said to Sandra, “I highly recommend the Special!” “I don’t know if I can be thankful for the thorns in my life, “ Sandra said to Jenny. “Well, my experience says that thorns make roses more precious. We treasure God’s providential care more during trouble than at any other time. Remember, Sandra, Jesus wore a crown of thorns so that we might know His love. Do not resent thorns.” Tears rolled down Sandra’s cheeks. For the first time since the accident, she loosened her grip on resentment. “I’ll take twelve longstemmed thorns, please.” “I hoped you would, “ Jenny said. “I’ll have them ready in a minute. Then, every time you see them, remember to appreciate both the good and hard times. We grow through both.” “Thank you. What do I owe you?” “Nothing. Nothing but a pledge to work toward healing your heart. The first year’s arrangement is always on me.” Jenny handed a card to Sandra. “I’ll attach a card like this to your arrangement but maybe you’d like to read it first. Go ahead, read it.” My God, I have never thanked Thee for my thorn! I have thanked Thee a thousand times for my roses, but never once for my thorn. Teach me the glory of the cross I bear, teach me the value of my thorns. Show me that I have climbed to Thee by the path of pain. Show me that my tears have made my rainbow. -Author Unknown

GRATITUDE IS THE KEY THAT OPENS THE DOOR TO GOODNESS
I assumed complete responsibility for the shop and for the first time, spent the holidays alone. I had no children, no husband, no family nearby, and too great a debt to allow any travel.” “What did you do?” “I learned to be thankful for thorns.” Sandra’s eyebrows lifted. “Thorns?”

Speaking with Spirit
then speak to them as if they were present in the room with us. After you have made your “call” to them, speak clearly and specifically about what is on your mind. If you need help or guidance, then in what way can they help? When we are done talking, we need to remain in silence and listen within our mind. Those in spirit will answer. You can also ask them to answer in your dreams.
By Ray Fraser I am frequently asked during counseling sessions or at seances, How do you get to communicate with spirit? My answer is always simple. How do you communicate with folks here in the physical world? Often the person asking says, “Well, I call them up or text them. You can’t text someone in spirit.” My reply is, “Why not? True, there are probably no cell phones in the spirit world, but that is because they are not needed there as much as they seem to be needed here in the physical. As I began my spiritual unfoldment many decades ago, I was taught that “THOUGHT” is the language of spirit. Meaning that all you need to do is “think” of someone in spirit and they will know. Most people think that this is impossible. Why? We are led to believe that the spirit world is in some far-off never-never land that is completely out of our contact range and that spirit has no interest or ability to communicate back with us. Neither of these ideas are true. In reality, the spirit occupies the same space that we do. Additionally, those in spirit are at least as anxious to communicate with us, as we are to communicate with them. However, regular two-way communication with spirit is a “learned” art, much like speaking a foreign language. At first you may understand only a word or two, but as you practice, you soon become fluent and can understand all that is said. How did we get to this misunderstanding? Unfortunately, there is no one who can verifiably attest that they have gone into spirit, stayed long enough to learn the ways, and then returned to the physical. Therefore, all that is known is supposition. Many true spirit mediums have learned to listen to messages from spirit, but not ALL. Or course, EVERYONE would like to be able to. As a result, those uninformed or under educated, create senarios attempting to explain the process. As with any hearsay, the further the message gets from its original source, the more distorted it becomes. This results in misunderstanding and outright falsehoods. In truth, spirit communion is relatively simple. In addition to family and friends who have crossed over, everyone has five or six spirit guides that are with them virtually all of the time. To communicate with someone we know, we need only to sit in the quiet, think about the person in as much detail as possible and November 2016
I mentioned earlier, that thought was the language of spirit; Why then do I speak? Speaking creates a vibration, which I believe helps them hear us. When asking for your spirit guides, these are most often folks that we have not met in this lifetime. And I‘ve never known anyone to have all male or all female guides, so I suggest that when you first start calling for them that you sit in the quiet, and ask, “OK guys and gals, I have a problem” then state your need. Over time you will learn who your guides are and be able to call them by name. Often during séance, guides come through and give us advice and assistance as well as who they are. Like anything else, the more you practice this, the easier it gets. When you finally hear your first response from spirit, your life will change forever. Join us at Mystiques~West on Wednesdays at 7:00 PM for our weekly public séance; we’ll be there to help you get started.
