Numerous inquiries from callers during readings frequently share a common theme: how another individual is impacting their wellbeing, joy, and tranquility.

Even with variations in specifics, the fundamental narrative tends to remain the same: a person’s inner radiance is subdued as they relinquish too much authority to someone else’s decisions, moods, or flaws.

Many individuals appear to find themselves in unsuitable relationships. They cling on, hoping for change and waiting for the best to come. They defer their plans, stifle their own desires and preferences, and push the boundaries of their endurance, expecting a breakthrough to occur soon.

Yet, this is typically not the outcome. People rarely change for someone else, and if they do, it seldom endures or succeeds over time. A transformation motivated by the desire to satisfy another person rarely holds up against the pressures of reality. Once challenges emerge, old behaviors resurface. Change can only happen for oneself.

Spirit’s advice on this matter is consistently explicit: holding onto the wrong individual — be it a friend, family member, spouse, partner, lover, or superior — hinders us from experiencing the finest life has to offer.

When we focus our energy on monitoring someone else’s behavior, our capacity for personal and spiritual development diminishes. This blocks the incredible opportunities that await us, not because the universe is ‘stingy,’ but due to our time and attention being fully occupied.

One of the most common justifications is (yes, I state it plainly): “But I care for her so deeply!” or, “Oh, I can’t imagine life without him.”

Be mindful not to treat others’ hearts carelessly, and do not tolerate individuals who treat yours carelessly ~ Kurt Vonnegut

Some individuals recite these sentiments like personal affirmations, believing that love or need takes precedence over everything else. These are simply rationalizations to shy away from taking a leap toward a better existence and entering a healthier relationship. They serve merely to postpone tough choices and to convince themselves that endurance equates to commitment.

In reality, these justifications may keep them ensnared in an uncomfortable scenario and hinder their escape from harmful patterns. They are excuses that permit individuals to cling to the anguish in their lives while attributing the blame to someone else.

We alone dictate how our lives progress—or stagnate. We cannot anticipate someone else to evolve into what we wish them to be.

When you say that someone is causing your depression, that is a misunderstanding. You are permitting someone to harm you and influence you in a manner that contradicts your true self. Acknowledging this does not imply you are to blame for the mistreatment, but it signifies you hold the power to change how often it impacts you.

You have the choice to reclaim control. You can simply sever ties and depart. However, many opt to remain in a state of unrest and despondency while yearning for change. Waiting may seem easier initially. Confrontation may feel daunting. Yet, the longer you linger, the more burdensome the situation becomes, and the more distant your own needs appear.

Life is meant to be fully experienced. You are meant to savor every moment to the fullest. You are meant to pursue every moment for your highest good. You are meant to be joyful, fulfilled, and overflowing with love and happiness. However, these elements must originate from within yourself primarily.

May you achieve that inner realm where you no longer permit your past or those with harmful intentions to adversely condition or influence you ~ Lalah Delia

Then, others in your life can positively contribute to every aspect of your existence. If they attempt to diminish you or make you feel inferior, simply cut ties and move on. No justifications are permissible. Growth rarely coexists with consistent belittlement.

It’s time to evolve into the remarkable person you are destined to be. Stand firm, disengage, and welcome the right people, employment, and surroundings into your life so you can thrive and develop. This is how spirit and the divine envision your life.

Take a quiet moment today to reflect on your life and the individuals who inhabit it. Pause after each encounter long enough to recognize how you genuinely feel—revitalized, neutral, or drained. This process can be daunting, especially with long-standing relationships that seem almost sacred; yet, duration alone doesn’t guarantee mutual respect or a positive impact.

Approach this evaluation sincerely and one item at a time — one individual, one job, one circumstance. Breaking down the process into smaller tasks helps prevent overwhelm and allows you to notice patterns you might overlook if you attempted to evaluate everything simultaneously.

Clinging to negative individuals and toxic relationships will drag you down to their level or control you in a detrimental manner. Minor grievances accumulate. Waiting for improved behavior robs hours that could otherwise be invested in building confidence, friendships, or a new career.

It’s time to rise and embrace the extraordinary person you were destined to become. However, only you can accomplish this. No one else can create the scenario you seek — it rests in your hands. Are you ready to undertake the work?

A detrimental relationship resembles standing on shattered glass; if you remain, you will continually hurt. If you depart, you may feel pain, but ultimately, you will heal ~ Autumn Kohler

Indicators They’re Not The Right Person

Here’s how to commence. Evaluate the impact of each relationship on your health, happiness, and emotional wellness. Work through the following questions one relationship at a time. Your candid responses will provide a clear snapshot of whether the connection fosters your growth or hinders it.

Energy After-Effect: Do you feel fatigued, tense, or anxious after spending time with them?

Goal Progress: Have your personal or professional aspirations stagnated since the relationship commenced?

Honest Expression: Do you suppress your true feelings to prevent conflict?

Immediate Reaction: Does seeing their name on your phone induce anxiety?

Self-Perception: Are you pleased with the version of yourself that emerges around them?

Support Level: When you succeed, do they acknowledge and encourage you, or downplay and compete with you?

Boundary Respect: Do they consistently adhere to your boundaries?

Recurring Issues: Are you experiencing the same unresolved argument repeatedly?

Future Outlook: When envisioning the next five years, does including this individual feel reassuring or overwhelming?

Status-Quo Test: If nothing changed from this point onward, would you still choose to remain in the relationship?

Cease making excuses like “but I care for him.” Love is genuine, but it cannot protect against negativity. Stand up and allow the finest blessings to enter your life by freeing yourself from the restraints that hold you back.

Every time you detach from a toxic connection, you convey a message to every facet of your being that you deserve tranquility and mutual respect. The journey may feel strange initially, but it clears the way for authentic support and shared joy.

Relationships can bring joy and fulfillment, but they can also create stress and unhappiness if you are with the wrong individual. Coming to terms with the potentiality of holding onto the wrong person can be challenging, yet recognizing the indicators is crucial for fostering positive transformation in your life.

One crucial sign that you may be clinging to the wrong person is if you consistently feel unhappy or unsatisfied within the relationship. If you notice a prevalence of negative emotions over positive ones during your time with your partner, it could indicate that they are not the right match for you. It’s essential to be attentive to your feelings and heed your instincts when it concerns relationships.

Another indication that you might be maintaining a relationship with the wrong individual is if you feel compelled to repeatedly compromise your values or beliefs to make things work. Being with someone who respects and supports you for who you are is vital, rather than someone who attempts to alter you or makes you feel inadequate. If you routinely find yourself sacrificing your happiness for the sake of the relationship, it might be time to reassess whether this person is genuinely right for you.

Moreover, if you find yourself justifying your partner’s actions or defending them consistently to others, it may signal that you are clinging to the wrong individual. It’s essential to be with someone who treats you with dignity and kindness, rather than someone who frequently disappoints you or causes you distress. If you find yourself continually making excuses for your partner’s behavior, it may point to the presence of a toxic or unhealthy relationship.

Ultimately, trusting your instincts and listening to your gut about the relationship is critical. If you feel unhappy, unfulfilled, or consistently compromising your values in your relationship, it may suggest that you are holding onto the wrong person. Prioritizing your comfort and well-being in relationships is paramount, and being with someone who genuinely values and respects you is vital. If you identify any of these signs in your relationship, consider having a conversation with your partner about your feelings and reflect on whether the relationship is truly meaningful for you. Remember, it’s never too late to initiate positive changes in your life and prioritize your own happiness and wellbeing. Continue reading →

As a teacher of Kundalini yoga, my perspective on forgiveness extends beyond mere compassion or kindness. It is a sacred healing journey — a fundamental release and transformation of the toxic energy stored within the subtle body.

My experiences as a Reiki healer and psychic reader have enhanced my grasp of this notion. I’ve observed how unresolved emotional anguish, bitterness, and resentment can cause blockages in our energy channels, dulling our vibrancy and hindering our intuitive skills.

Throughout both healing sessions and psychic readings, I’ve noticed forgiveness catalyzing significant changes in individuals’ physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual health.

Within the Kundalini Yoga framework, forgiveness transcends being just a moral principle. It represents a deep energetic cleansing. Holding onto feelings of resentment, anger, or betrayal creates heavy energy imprints, or emotional residues, in our aura and chakras, particularly near the heart center (Anahata). Such blockages hinder the flow of prana, dull our intuitive insights, and restrict our ability to experience divine love.

My yoga mentor, Yogi Bhajan, frequently emphasized that the quickest path to healing and joy is through complete and unlimited forgiveness. He taught us that genuine forgiveness necessitates letting go of the subconscious “recordings” and emotional patterns engraved in both sides of the brain — patterns that replay suffering and perpetuate karmic cycles. “Forgive, release, learn, love, and thrive,” he would encourage.

To forgive is the highest, most beautiful form of love. In return, you will receive untold peace and happiness ~ Robert Muller

The Sanskrit word kṣamā, which translates to “forgiveness,” is honored among many yogic traditions as a crucial virtue. In Kundalini yoga, forgiveness is not just a moral yama; it embodies a daily practice that fosters patience, compassion, and release towards both oneself and others.

Forgiveness in Kundalini Yoga also serves as a method of karmic purification. It liberates us from vasanas and samskaras—the dormant tendencies and karmic marks from past experiences that influence our actions and perceptions. Certain practices, like “unloading the subconscious,” aim to bring forth and clear these hidden impressions. The objective is to cleanse the psyche, revitalize the heart, and elevate the soul towards spiritual awakening.

Forgiveness Is Essential For Healing

This is why forgiveness is practiced with intention, mantra, pranayama, kriya, and meditation. Yogi Bhajan stressed its importance for genuine healing throughout his teachings. Without forgiveness, the Kundalini energy cannot ascend freely through the central channel (sushumna). The heart remains tight, the mind anxious, and the soul encumbered.

Numerous Kundalini instructors lead students through forgiveness meditations that emphasize posture, breath, and sound, often employing the mantra Sat Nam to ground the practice. These meditations serve as energetic resets, guiding us back to the heart whenever resentment arises.

Over the years of working with students and clients, I’ve observed how forgiveness softens the heart, calms the mind, and opens the energetic body to profound awakening. It invites the Kundalini to ascend smoothly and brilliantly.

Nevertheless, I have also realized that genuine forgiveness cannot be hurried. It blossoms when we are prepared to transcend our wounds and acknowledge the soul’s truth: we are all here to learn, grow, and evolve through each other’s reflections.

In Reiki sessions, unresolved trauma and complaints frequently appear as dark, heavy stagnation surrounding the heart and solar plexus chakras. Yet, when the intention to forgive is consciously held, I see that energy start to lift, lighten, and disperse.

In the same vein, unhealed resentment can emerge as fractured timelines or shadowy facets of the inner child during psychic readings, yearning for reintegration. Repeatedly, these revelations affirm the beautiful teachings of Kundalini Yoga: forgiveness is not a passive act. Instead, it is a deliberate and brave endeavor of energetic healing and self-liberation.

When you hold resentment toward another, you are bound to that person or condition by an emotional link that is stronger than steel. Forgiveness is the only way to dissolve that link and achieve freedom ~ Catherine Ponder

The Bridge Of Light: A Forgiveness Meditation

A potent technique for forgiveness work is visualized meditation. I created a forgiveness meditation for my sessions that unfolds Kundalini Yoga teachings with visualization and heart-centered intention.

After engaging in this meditation, my students often express that they feel a sense of lightness or can now approach previously difficult individuals with greater tolerance, compassion, or even love. Below is a polished version of this meditation, refined through years of feedback and practice:

Sit in easy pose: Settle into a comfortable cross-legged position while keeping your spine erect and shoulders relaxed.

Commence eyebrow gazing. Softly close your eyes and roll them upward toward your third eye, situated between your brows. Direct your gaze inward and slightly upward. This action stimulates the pituitary gland and heightens intuitive awareness.

Activate healing energy in your hands. Friction your hands together rapidly to generate warmth and activate prana, or life force energy. Then, rest your left hand over your heart center, placing your right hand gently on top.

Start taking long, deep breaths. Breathe in slowly and completely through your nose, filling your lungs fully. Exhale consciously to release tension and stagnant energy from your body.

Visualize a joyful, healing environment. Imagine yourself seated beside a tranquil, gentle creek in a serene and stunning natural landscape. Listen to the soft murmur of the water and the birds chirping. Feel the warm sunlight and gentle breeze against your skin.

Witness the wrongdoers. Across the peaceful, sparkling creek, visualize everyone who has ever wronged you — those who have deceived you, betrayed you, harmed you, or abandoned you. Take your time. Simply observe their presence with detached compassion.

Extend a healing bridge of light. Now, visualize a glowing bridge of healing light stretching across the creek. Rise in your mind’s eye and position yourself at the entrance of the bridge on your side.

Receive their soul apology. Allow each person to cross the bridge one by one. Listen as they convey a heartfelt and sincere apology from their higher self.

Forgive and release them. Accept their apology and acknowledge its soul-level truth. Embrace them with compassion. Then, gently let them go and allow them to continue on their path. Feel your energy become lighter with each release.

Rebalance your heart center. Once everyone has departed, bring your focus back to your heart. Visualize a radiant emerald green light, the healing hue of the heart chakra, filling and expanding within your chest. Let it shine with every breath.

Affirm your freedom. Quietly affirm, “I forgive. I release. I am free.” Let each statement reinforce your emotional liberation and energetic clarity.

Integrate and conclude. Remain in tranquil stillness for a few moments to allow your energy field to harmonize. When you feel prepared, gently open your eyes and return to the present moment, sensing grounded and light.

You can engage in this meditation as often as needed. With each session, another layer of resistance will peel away and a further karmic thread will be unraveled. Over time, your emotional energy field will grow clearer, your heart will open wider, and your intuition will become more attuned.

Always remember that forgiveness is not merely a gift for others. It signifies the sacred act of reclaiming your own energy, joy, and well-being. By choosing forgiveness, you align with your highest self and allow the divine to flow through you effortlessly and graciously.

May your journey be radiant, your heart unburdened, and your soul empowered in peace, acceptance, and divine truth.

Forgiveness serves as a potent instrument capable of profoundly altering our lives. It involves releasing feelings of resentment, anger, and bitterness towards those who have wronged us and choosing to free ourselves from the weight of maintaining negative emotions. By forgiving, we transition from a place of darkness and resentment to a one filled with light and brightness.

Resentment is a burdensome load to carry. It can drag us down, obscure our clarity, and hinder our capacity to experience genuine happiness and tranquility. When we cling to resentment, we permit the actions of others to dominate us, trapping us in a cycle of negativity and suffering. However, by opting to forgive, we can escape this cycle and make ourselves available to numerous opportunities.

Forgiveness is not necessarily effortless. It compels us to relinquish our ego, our desire for revenge, and our urge to hold onto past wounds. It requires vulnerability and a willingness to risk further hurt. Nevertheless, the benefits of forgiveness far surpass the hazards. By forgiving, we liberate ourselves from negativity’s grip and venture towards tranquility and healing.

Forgiveness possesses the ability to transform our relationships, both with others and ourselves. When we pardon someone who has caused us pain, we can release the anger and resentment that have been toxic to our relationship. We can perceive the other individual through a compassionate lens, with greater understanding, enabling us to advance with renewed connection and trust.

Furthermore, forgiveness can reshape our internal world. When we forgive, we release the burden of old pains and injuries. We are able to put aside negative feelings that have held us back from fully embracing joy and fulfillment. Through forgiveness, we transition from darkness to light, from resentment to brilliance.

In summary, forgiveness is a powerful force with the capacity to effect significant change in our lives. It enables us to let go of resentment’s weight and shifts us towards peace and healing. It can alter our relationships with others and ourselves and introduces us to an array of possibilities. Therefore, relinquish the past, liberate yourself from negativity’s grasp, and journey toward a place of light and brightness through forgiveness’s transformative power. Continue reading →

Have you ever realized how certain days everything seems to flow smoothly? You feel light-hearted, connected, and brimming with happiness. Yet, there are days when it seems like you’re trudging through thick emotional sludge. What causes this difference? It all comes down to your vibration.

Your unique vibration is the energy frequency you emit. It constantly shifts based on your thoughts, feelings, surroundings, and spiritual practices.

Here’s the reality: Recognizing your vibration is crucial. When you tune in, you gain the power to act. Lacking awareness can easily lead you back to outdated, low-energy patterns that push you away from your core.

Negative energy is not just unpleasant — it draws even more negativity. The longer you linger in it, the harder it is to escape.

That’s why shifting your energy as soon as you become aware of slipping into negativity is vital. Like attracts like, so if you seek more peace, joy, and abundance, you must align with those energies.

Your vibration impacts everything. It shapes your relationships, health, spiritual connection, and even your luck. Low vibrations are frequently associated with negative emotions like fear, anxiety, and doubt. However, the bright side is that… High vibrations foster clarity, love, intuition, and flow. Keeping a high frequency in today’s hectic world may not always be easy, but the effort is undoubtedly worthwhile.

Even when everything around you seems unsteady, you can alter your internal state as soon as you become aware of it. This awareness is more than half the battle! Truly, awareness is your superpower. The moment you catch yourself spiraling, change your mindset. Switch the channel in your mind.

Everything you require to attain your greatest desire is already within you. However, it cannot manifest until you align with it, release the barriers to it, and elevate your vibration to the level where it already exists ~ Derek Rydall

Awareness Is Key

So, what should you do when you detect a decrease in your energy? The first step is to acknowledge it. This awareness is empowering because it’s akin to illuminating a dark room. Once that light is on, you can discern the situation and initiate changes.

There are countless methods to elevate your vibration, ranging from deeply spiritual to beautifully simple. Some individuals swear by Transcendental Meditation or Kundalini yoga. These practices help to harmonize your energy and elevate your level of consciousness. Yet, sometimes, all it takes is a saltwater bath. Water naturally purifies, and when infused with intention, it turns sacred.

Need a rapid vibrational cleanse? Try sage spray. Add a few drops of sage essential oil to a spray bottle filled with water. Shake it up and mist it over your head. It works like an energetic dry shampoo, cleansing your aura and shifting your energy in a matter of seconds.

Do not neglect your physical environment, either. A cluttered, dusty home can drag down your energy much faster than you might realize. Keep your living space clean, bright, and filled with love. Invoke your angels and ask them to imbue your space with light and tranquility. Remember, you are always supported, even when you can’t perceive it.

Deliberately Shifting Your Energy

Energy is in perpetual motion. Guess what? You have the autonomy to choose how you respond to the world around you. Every moment presents an opportunity to select light over darkness. When someone tests your patience or life throws a surprise, you can either respond with poise or spiral into stress. Choose light. Choose love.

Embrace your power. You are not a victim of your circumstances. You are an influential co-creator of your existence. Every challenge offers a chance for growth and an expansion of your consciousness. The energy you project into the universe returns to you tenfold, so why not make it positive?

Feeling exhausted? Move your body! Energy gets stuck when we remain sedentary for too long. Dance, stretch, walk, or jump — just get the energy circulating! You’ll feel lighter in no time.

Never forget that you have spiritual allies at your side. Your angels, guides, and archangels are always ready to assist. Call on Archangel Michael if you feel lost or burdened. Ask him to sever the energetic cords that are no longer beneficial and assist you in realigning with your highest self. Simply invoking divine support can rapidly transform your vibration.

This journey isn’t about perfection. It’s about intention. There will always be more to learn, heal, and expand into. Your vibration is a lifelong dance with energy. The key is to keep moving.

Your personal vibration or energy state is a mix of the contracted or expanded frequencies of your bodily emotions and thoughts at any particular moment. The more you permit your soul to shine through you, the higher your personal vibration will be ~ Penney Peirce

Daily Strategies To Raise Your Vibe

So, how do you sustain a high vibration every single day? It commences with consistent, intentional actions. Here are 20 practical suggestions to keep your frequency elevated:

Divine Assistance: Remember to ask your guides, ancestors, or angels for help when needed. Opening yourself to divine support can bring comfort, direction, and peace.

Keep in mind, your energy is sacred. Protect it. Nurture it. Most importantly, stay aware. That awareness is your path to transformation.

Continue to shine brightly! The world needs your light.

As a psychic medium, I have devoted decades to observing the profound and intricate path of grief.

Throughout the years, I’ve discovered that grief takes on various expressions and takes many forms. It’s not solely confined to death and dying; it can stem from countless losses such as losing a pet, the conclusion of a relationship, a shift in life direction, job loss, or relocating from a cherished home.

My clients frequently express sentiments like, “There’s a void in my heart,” or “It feels as though my heart has been ripped apart.”

These phrases are more than mere figurative language. Grief can be so overwhelming that it feels akin to a physical wound — like a ‘heart attack’ of the spirit. Grief resonates throughout our heart, mind, body, and spirit, impacting all aspects of our existence.

One of the most crucial lessons I’ve come to understand is that grief is profoundly individual. Each person processes it in a different manner. There is no universal “right” way to grieve nor a predetermined timeline.

Some individuals may begin to feel a slight relief after a few weeks or months, while for others, the pain may extend for years or even decades. And that’s completely acceptable.

Grieving signifies that you loved deeply, cared earnestly, and formed significant connections. It’s about more than just saying farewell; it involves cultivating a new bond with their absence, one that honors the love in a different format.

Grief represents both a natural emotional response and a sacred journey. In spiritual terms, it’s a deep voyage of the soul — involving transformation rather than merely sorrow. It transcends emotional anguish; it touches the most profound facets of your faith, beliefs, and relationship with something larger than yourself.

The price of love is loss; and the cost of loss is grief – Yet the ache of grief is merely a shadow when contrasted with the agony of never having risked love ~ Hilary Stanton Zunin

In numerous spiritual beliefs, grief is regarded as a pathway to wisdom and growth. Some view it as the soul’s method of deepening its comprehension of love and impermanence, pushing one towards acceptance and renewal. Others perceive it as a sacred moment, where the essence of loss also embodies something significant — whether it’s the enduring love from those we’ve lost or the epiphany of life’s interconnectedness.

There’s also a mystical dimension to grief: in times of profound sorrow, individuals may become more spiritually aware and receptive to signs, dreams, or sensations that exceed rationality.

It’s essential to remember that we grieve not only for what we’ve lost but also for what never came to be. For instance, when a marriage dissolves, people may grieve the hopes they had for the relationship rather than accepting its reality. This too is a legitimate form of grief.

The Five Stages Of Grief

In her pioneering work On Death and Dying (1962), psychiatrist Elisabeth Kübler-Ross introduced the renowned Kübler-Ross model, which delineates the five stages of grief.

Denial – This is the initial reaction to loss, where we grapple with accepting reality. It acts as a psychological defense mechanism, fostering temporary emotional numbness to protect us from overwhelming sensations.

Anger – As the reality of the loss dawns, emotions transition to frustration and resentment. We may direct our anger towards ourselves, others, or the situation, looking for something or someone to blame.

Bargaining – In an effort to reclaim control or reverse the loss, we may attempt to negotiate with a higher power, with ourselves, or with others. Common thoughts include “If only I had acted differently…” or “Maybe if I change things, it will improve.”

Depression – The gravity of the loss becomes fully apparent, resulting in profound sadness, withdrawal, and reflection. This stage is often characterized by feelings of hopelessness, isolation, or contemplation of what has been lost.

Acceptance – Eventually, we arrive at a point where we cease to resist the reality of our loss. This doesn’t imply forgetting or feeling “fine” about it, but rather assimilating the experience into our lives and finding paths to advance.

However, it’s crucial to acknowledge that grief is predominantly personal — there is no preset timeline, and healing manifests differently for everyone. The five stages are not strictly sequential; we may navigate them in various orders or revisit certain stages multiple times. Grief can ebb and flow like the tides. One moment, we may feel acceptance; the next, we may find ourselves submerged in sorrow once more.

Triggers, such as a familiar melody, a specific scent, or a meaningful location, can unexpectedly transport us back to the depths of our anguish. Yet, these instances also provide chances for healing. They serve as sacred reminders of our ongoing connection to our lost loved ones.

Moving on after a loss doesn’t equate to forgetting. It involves learning to carry love in a new fashion. A good starting point is granting yourself permission to mourn at your own pace, free of judgment.

Grief resembles the ocean; it washes over us in waves, ebbing and flowing. Sometimes the waters are calm, and other times they are all-consuming. All we can do is learn to swim ~ Vicki Harrison

Charting Your Own Course Through Grief

The following are some suggestions to aid you in navigating grief on your own terms:

Honor your emotions – There is no single correct manner to grieve. Permit yourself to experience whatever feelings arise, whether they be sadness, anger, relief, or even unexpected joy. Don’t suppress your feelings; grief must process through you. Cry as needed. Laugh when possible. Embrace it all.

Grieve at your own rhythm – Grief does not adhere to a schedule. Take all the time you require, and resist any pressure to “move forward” before you’re ready.

Adapt to change – Loss frequently transforms our lives in unforeseen ways. Embrace your evolution, even if it feels strange at the outset.

Find purpose and significance – Whether through spirituality, creativity, therapy, or volunteering, seeking purpose in your loss can assist in steering you through the pain and towards healing.

Reach out and maintain connections – Even if solitude feels preferable at this moment, staying connected with supportive individuals can offer comfort and perspective. You don’t need to grieve in isolation. Contact friends, join a support group, or converse with someone who can relate.

Create personal rituals – Establishing rituals— such as lighting a candle, composing letters, visiting a significant site, or scattering ashes — can help preserve your bond with what was lost.

Engage in creative pursuits and constructive activities – Hobbies and crafts can serve as powerful mediums for processing grief. Try your hand at painting, drawing, pottery, sculpting, woodworking, DIY projects, knitting, crocheting, calligraphy, or journaling.

Honor memories by sharing stories. Look through photographs. Celebrate birthdays or anniversaries in a manner that holds meaning for you.

Listen to your body – Grief encompasses both emotional and physical dimensions. Nourish your body with healthy food, ensure you rest adequately, and gently move your body, even if it’s simply a brief stroll.

Practice self-kindness. Grieving is demanding. Treat yourself with gentleness. Don’t anticipate a rapid recovery; there will be challenging days. Extend to yourself the same kindness and patience you would show a dear friend.

Avoid making significant decisions. Refrain from major life changes in the immediate aftermath of a loss. Allow time for stabilization.

Spend time in nature or with animals. The natural environment and loving pets can provide grounding and calming influences for a grieving spirit.

Avoid major life decisions. When possible, hold off on significant choices in the immediate aftermath of your loss. Take time to regain your equilibrium.

Think about a mediumship session. A meeting with a reputable psychic medium could relay messages of love, peace, and closure from those who have passed. This connection has the potential to mend a grieving heart.

As a medium, I often have the honor of facilitating reconnections between clients and their loved ones in spirit. These encounters can be incredibly healing. Spirits frequently share messages of encouragement; they wish for us to live, find joy, and embrace tranquility. They remind us that they have not truly departed—they have merely transitioned to another realm.

Grief is a transformative odyssey. It reshapes our identities and perceptions of the world. However, it can also ignite profound spiritual awakening. May you grant yourself the grace to mourn and the bravery to heal. Always bear in mind that you are not alone.

Grief is a shared human experience that we all encounter at some point in our lives. Whether it be the loss of a beloved individual, a job, a relationship, or a cherished dream, grief can be a daunting and overpowering journey. Nevertheless, it is also a sacred pathway that can lead to healing, growth, and transformation when approached with awareness and self-kindness.

Here are some suggestions on how to traverse the sacred journey of grief:

1. Allow yourself to experience your emotions: Grief is intricate and multifaceted, presenting itself in numerous forms, including sadness, anger, guilt, and even relief. It is vital to let yourself experience all of these feelings without judgment or suppression. By recognizing and accepting your emotions, you can begin to process and release them healthily.

2. Prioritize self-care: Grief can take a toll on you physically and emotionally, so it’s crucial to care for yourself during this challenging period. Ensure you eat healthily, exercise, get adequate rest, and engage in activities that bring you joy and comfort. Self-care can help you manage the stress associated with grief and preserve your overall well-being.

3. Seek support: Grieving is a deeply personal journey, yet it’s equally essential to seek support from others who can offer comfort, understanding, and empathy. Reach out to friends, family, support groups, or a therapist who can help guide you through your grief and provide a listening ear when needed.

4. Honor your loved one: If you are mourning the loss of someone dear, consider ways to commemorate their memory and legacy. This might involve creating a memorial, writing a letter, planting a tree, or participating in a charitable event in their name. By keeping their memory alive, you can find solace in knowing they will always be present in spirit.

5. Embrace mindfulness and self-compassion: Grief can be a surge of emotions, thoughts, and physical sensations that can sometimes feel overwhelming. By practicing mindfulness and self-compassion, you can foster a sense of presence, acceptance, and kindness towards yourself as you navigate the highs and lows of grief. Take time to breathe, meditate, journal, or engage in other self-soothing practices that can help you stay grounded and centered during this demanding time.

6. Be patient and gentle with yourself: Grief is a journey that requires time, patience, and self-kindness. It’s important to be gentle with yourself and allow your grief to unfold at its own pace. Remember that healing is not a straightforward process, and it’s normal to have good days and bad days. By being patient and kind to yourself, you can gradually navigate the phases of grief and discover peace and acceptance on the other side.

In closing, navigating the sacred journey of grief is a deeply personal and transformative experience that leads to healing, growth, and resilience. By allowing yourself to feel your emotions, prioritizing self-care, seeking support, honoring your loved one, practicing mindfulness and self-compassion, and being patient and gentle with yourself, you can navigate grief’s ups and downs with grace and courage. Remember that you are not alone in your grief and that there is light beyond the tunnel. Trust in the process, trust in yourself, and trust in the healing power of love and resilience.

We draw into our lives what we anticipate. When parents, friends, peers, and most significantly, your own self-talk assert that you are insufficient, unintelligent, or unattractive, and you opt to accept such notions, they become your reality.

Reinforcing these thoughts within your subconscious solidifies this belief until it eventually manifests as truth in your existence. The subconscious accepts each statement it hears as fact, not differentiating between objective reality and what has simply been echoed frequently enough.

Self-talk, whether encouraging or filled with uncertainty, is internalized similarly. The subconscious operates like a curious child: eager to absorb all information, particularly messages that are consistent and repetitive. It hears and learns without judgment, merely assimilating and accepting.

This makes it challenging to distinguish between authentic inner truths and false beliefs established through repeated external influences, such as television content, narratives shared by others, or even our own internal dialogue.

Consider this: you might doze off while watching a cheerful, comedic show. Then, a disturbing war documentary airs. Although you’re no longer consciously engaged, your subconscious continues to process the content. Those distressing visuals and feelings may infiltrate your dreams, creating new fears and anxieties, even though they stem from fiction or someone else’s experience.

This serves as a strong reason to refrain from social media, television, or podcasts just before sleep. In those peaceful, accepting hours, your subconscious takes in everything — and what it absorbs can subtly influence your emotional and spiritual health without your awareness.

The greatest discovery of my generation is that human beings can alter their lives by altering their attitudes of mind ~ William James

The Impact Of Self-Talk

Self-talk stands as one of our most potent tools for personal growth. It carries the capacity to uplift or undermine us. When we converse with ourselves kindly, confidently, and with optimism, we sow the seeds for positive change.

Conversely, if we continually judge ourselves harshly, we erode our own foundation. As the adage suggests, if you often remind yourself that you can, you will. On the flip side, if you repeatedly insist that you cannot, you will almost certainly encounter failure.

It’s also crucial to realize that the subconscious mind captures everything, encompassing what you express to others. Comments made in jest or dishonesty can be retained as truths. Falsehoods can eventually solidify into beliefs and become part of your inner narrative. Over time, these beliefs may resurface to challenge you, as the subconscious regards them as facets of your reality.

Altering Your Thoughts

We frequently hear that altering your thoughts can transform your life. While this is a beautiful and empowering truth, executing it is often more challenging than it seems. You can immerse yourself in self-help audiobooks, read numerous motivational texts, and attend various spiritual seminars and workshops—yet still grapple with lingering feelings of insecurity or self-doubt.

This persistent “but” typically arises from internal resistance or a deeply embedded belief that genuine change is unattainable for you. Authentic transformation does not commence with external lessons; it begins with an internal shift—a profound and steadfast belief in your capacity to evolve, your worthiness of joy, abundance, and tranquility.

Most people are thinking about what they don’t want, and they’re wondering why it shows up over and over again ~ John Assaraf

The Resonance Of Doubt

Many individuals seek guidance in books such as The Secret by Rhonda Byrne (2006), Wayne Dyer’s Wishes Fulfilled (2012), and Gabrielle Bernstein’s Super Attractor (2019). These widely-read works all advocate for the fundamental idea that like attracts like. Your thoughts, feelings, and beliefs transmit a vibrational frequency that draws akin experiences into your existence. When you think positively and emotionally resonate with your desires, you begin to attract those outcomes toward you.

However, what often goes unacknowledged is the focus these authors emphasize on the essential foundation of belief, trust, and inner faith. Byrne discusses the importance of genuinely believing you already have what you desire. Dyer asserts that you must embrace the feeling of your wish already being realized. Bernstein encourages us to fully trust the universe and to feel deserving of receiving.

This, for many, presents the real challenge. Clients often express to me that they’re implementing everything advised by the books—visualizing, affirming, and expressing gratitude—but still feel entrenched. “What am I doing incorrectly?” they ponder. “Why isn’t the universe responding? Doesn’t the universe wish for my happiness?”

During readings, the spirit consistently conveys the same answer: “The universe is on your side.” Followed by a gentle nudge for self-reflection: “Ask yourself instead: Do you harbor even the slightest doubt that your request will be fulfilled?”

And often the reply is a soft, sincere, “Well… yes, just a little.”

A hint of doubt can obstruct the flow of manifestation. When you make a demand of the universe while doubting its feasibility, it’s as if you’re softly saying, “I hope this materializes, but I don’t genuinely believe it will… not for someone like me.”

We attract exactly what we anticipate. Doubt establishes the frequency you emit, and the universe, true to its essence as a reflector, responds accordingly. This captures the heart of energetic alignment. We manifest not what we desire, but what we genuinely expect. What we hope for does not materialize, but who we are does.

We must embody success before it will come to us. We must mentally, in terms of attitude, become the individuals we aspire to be ~ Earl Nightingale

Embracing The Co-Creative Journey

Manifestation represents a co-creative endeavor. You need to fulfill your role, engage actively in the process, and undertake aligned actions. The journey is seldom straightforward. There are curves, bumps, inclines, and dips. Sometimes, it’s essential to carve your own route through uncharted territory to discover places you’ve never ventured before. However, with persistence and firm belief, you will reach your desired destination. Why? Because you anticipate it.

When initiating a journey, you begin with the conclusion in mind. You understand your destination. You chart your course, gather resources, and have faith that you will arrive. You harbor no doubt about your destination; you progress with intention! That confidence and absence of hesitation is what facilitates the journey to unfold.

If you expect less, you will obtain less. When you envision the best for yourself, you pave the way for miracles. Yet remember that gifts do not always arrive in the forms you anticipate. They may manifest as challenges, surprises, or detours. Nevertheless, these too are gifts, frequently leading you to unforeseen blessings and deeper insights.

Foster the internal belief that you are worthy, your aspirations are legitimate, and the universe fully supports you. Treat yourself with compassion and truthfulness. Transform your subconscious into an ally along your journey instead of a reservoir of past limitations.

Anticipate miracles. Anticipate joy. Anticipate the life you genuinely desire, and it shall be yours.

Aligning your thoughts with the life you wish to lead is an essential step in realizing your aspirations and living a satisfying life. By directing your thoughts and beliefs toward your objectives, you can bring forth your desires and craft the life you genuinely seek. Here are several strategies to help align your thoughts with the life you envision:

1. Define clear objectives: The initial step in aligning your thoughts with your desired life is to articulate distinct and specific goals. Take some time to contemplate what you truly want in life and document your goals. Ensure your goals are specific, measurable, attainable, relevant, and time-constrained (SMART). This will provide you with clear guidance and focus for your thoughts and actions.

2. Envision your success: Visualization is an effective tool that can assist you in aligning your mindset with the life you want. Dedicate some time each day to imagine yourself accomplishing your objectives and experiencing the life you aspire to lead. Picture yourself in vivid detail, relishing the success and fulfillment you yearn for. This practice will foster a positive mindset and attract the opportunities and resources necessary for reaching your goals.

3. Utilize positive affirmations: Affirmations are uplifting statements that can aid in reprogramming your subconscious and aligning your thoughts with your desires. Compile a list of affirmations reflecting your goals and recite them daily. For instance, if your aim is to establish a thriving business, you might say affirmations such as “I am a successful entrepreneur” or “I attract abundance and prosperity into my life.” This approach will help you remain focused and motivated on your objectives.

4. Surround yourself with positivity: Your surroundings significantly influence your thoughts and beliefs. Surround yourself with positive and encouraging individuals who believe in your aspirations and goals. Steer clear of negative influences and toxic relationships that can deplete your energy and impede your progress. Cultivate a positive and motivating environment that will help you remain focused and aligned with the life you wish for.

5. Practice thankfulness: Gratitude is a potent practice that can assist in aligning your thoughts with the life you desire. Dedicate some time each day to contemplate the things you are grateful for in your life. This will help you shift your attention from deficiency and scarcity to abundance and prosperity. Practicing gratitude will also draw in more positive experiences and opportunities.

6. Take inspired steps: Aligning your thoughts with the life you crave encompasses more than merely thinking positively; it also entails taking inspired steps toward your goals. Break down your objectives into smaller, achievable steps and consistently act toward realizing them. Trust your instincts and take bold and courageous steps toward your aspirations. This will enable you to synchronize your thoughts, beliefs, and actions with the life you desire.

In summary, aligning your thoughts with the life you aspire to is a transformative practice that can aid in accomplishing your goals and living a meaningful life. By defining clear objectives, envisioning your achievements, employing positive affirmations, surrounding yourself with positivity, practicing gratitude, and taking inspired actions, you can synchronize your thoughts, beliefs, and actions with your ambitions. Stay focused, remain positive, and believe in yourself – the life you long for is attainable. Continue reading →

Understanding your purpose and actively embodying it in today’s world stands as one of the most remarkable gifts one can encounter throughout this lifetime.

However, in an era rife with distractions, turmoil, fear, and ambiguity, many spiritual seekers find themselves grappling with doubt, confusion, and even despair.

Today, numerous individuals feel adrift and uncertain. This is a natural aspect of humanity in the digital age, coupled with the unpredictability of our times – the anguish of inquiry, the desire to comprehend our existence, and our intended roles.

Nevertheless, this reflects neither weakness nor defeat. In truth, it constitutes a crucial phase of our spiritual advancement and conscious evolution.

Personally, my interpretation of “purpose” has transformed over the years, yet its essence remains unchanged: delving into the spiritual or higher planes, the unseen connections that interlace our lives, and the profound enigmas of spirit and the universe.

I perceive my soul’s calling as an expedition into the unknown realms to further my everlasting, infinite journey. This endeavor serves not only myself but the collective as well.

My aim is to bring back insights from these explorations and share them with others, to shine light into shadowy areas, to mitigate chaos, and to help reinstate equilibrium to the universe. In essence, I aspire to be a beacon of hope and enlightenment, a modest guide for all who are open to receiving this knowledge.

A significant lesson I have learned thus far is that we are in a spiritually pivotal moment that demands clarity and firm belief in our path and purpose.

We stand at a pivotal point in human history. Never has there been a moment so fraught with danger and potential simultaneously. We are the first species to have taken evolution into our own hands ~ Carl Sagan

We exist at a distinctive juncture in human history. The speed of technological progress, the emergence of digital communication and artificial intelligence, political chaos, societal fragmentation, and extreme climate events, among others, are unraveling the fabric of our reality.

Many individuals feel torn between the past and the future, the physical and the spiritual, the logical and the mystical. The structures and institutions we once depended on to shape our lives – organized religion, cultural customs, and even scientific materialism – are increasingly being tested, challenged, and in some cases, irrevocably altered.

Yet, there is coherence and logic. Eternal truths and mystical forces have always existed beneath the surface of physical reality. Everything unfolds as intended, according to divine design and timing.

We are entering a new era that will increasingly compel us to adopt a refreshed worldview – one that harmonizes the mystical with the mechanical, recognizing both as integral components of a holistic, balanced entirety.

This is the call of non-dualism: to acknowledge matter and psyche, spirit and form, external and internal, as inseparable. It’s the recognition that everything is energy. All is alive, all is sentient, and we can engage with the mystery, not merely with our intellect, but with our entire being.

Our generation stands on the brink of something unprecedented: the sacred union of the physical and the spiritual. For today’s spiritual seeker, this represents both a remarkable opportunity and a formidable challenge. We are called not to renounce the world, but to intertwine our consciousness – to navigate both the visible and the invisible realms with grace, wisdom, and duty.

The movement for social potential is on the cusp of a widespread awakening, aiming to infuse society with the spiritual and personal insights of individuals ~ Barbara Marx Hubbard

So, how can one uncover and live out their true purpose amidst such intricate and daunting periods of uncertainty?

Pause and listen. Your purpose isn’t derived from external successes or societal roles; it emerges from the quiet, serene center of your spirit. Prioritize practices like meditation, self-reflection, journaling, or immersing yourself in nature. These practices will assist you in tuning into the inner voice that knows your true path.

Recall who you genuinely are. You needn’t “become” more spiritual or pursue enlightenment. You are inherently part of the divine tapestry of existence. Each time you act with love, compassion, curiosity, and authenticity – even in the most mundane ways – you embody your purpose. Purpose isn’t solely about grand actions; it’s about how you engage with the world, moment by moment.

Embrace uncertainty. In a society that craves certainty, true purpose often doesn’t involve a clear-cut plan. It’s about being genuine in the present, taking gradual steps, and permitting the journey to unfold naturally. Learn to find peace within the unknown, allowing the expedition itself to be your greatest teacher.

Illumine your path. Purpose is a collective endeavor. We are here to uplift and inspire each other – to light the way for those who feel lost, hold space for healing, and share wisdom. Ultimately, living in alignment with your purpose becomes an act of service that enriches your family, community, and the broader world.

Stay anchored in your body. Some spiritual seekers may drift towards the ethereal, but our bodies serve as our grounding force in this world. Engaging in practices like mindful movement, breathwork, yoga, or simply staying connected to the ground can help you bridge the seen and unseen, integrating insights into tangible, physical actions.

Let go of what no longer serves you. True purpose cannot flourish if you’re burdened by outdated narratives, relationships, roles, or beliefs. Regularly ask yourself, What am I clinging to that no longer nurtures my growth? Releasing limiting beliefs, detrimental habits, or unnecessary baggage creates the space necessary for new purpose to emerge.

Foster courage and resilience. The era we inhabit is unpredictable and often tumultuous. Cultivating inner resilience—through self-compassion, healthy boundaries, and emotional awareness—enables you to remain centered, even when external circumstances feel chaotic. Your purpose flourishes best when you maintain stability and adaptability amid change.

Connect with like-minded individuals. You needn’t embark on this journey alone. Seek communities, spiritual circles, or trusted friendships where you can share your insights, receive support, and grow collectively. The collective energy strengthens your purpose and nourishes you during challenging times.

Align your daily choices with your values. Purpose isn’t merely an abstract spiritual concept—it manifests in the decisions you make daily. Regularly contemplate: Are my actions aligned with my core values? Even minor adjustments – opting for kindness, practicing patience, advocating for justice, or creating beauty – become powerful expressions of purpose.

Remain receptive to change. Purpose evolves. The person you were five years ago isn’t who you are today, nor will you be that person five years hence. Stay open to the notion that your purpose may transform as you develop, mature, and awaken to new understandings. Honor the phases of your life and allow your purpose to unfold dynamically.

Share your gifts generously. Each of us possesses distinct talents, passions, and capabilities. Do not conceal your gifts or wait until you feel “ready” to share them. Whether it’s your creativity, wisdom, listening abilities, or sense of humor, your genuine gifts are crucial to the world’s needs right now. Trust that even the smallest contributions can create significant ripples in unseen ways.

There is hope if people begin to awaken that spiritual part of themselves, that heartfelt knowledge that we are caretakers of this planet ~ Brooke Medicine Eagle

As we stand at the threshold of old paradigms and a new era of infinite possibilities, remember this: You are not alone. Every seeker, every conscious being, is part of this vast unfolding. We act as the bridge between the mechanical and the magical, the tangible and the transcendent.

Being alive in this time is no accident. You are here for a significant reason, and it is a sacred honor. Regardless of whether you recognize it now, your life holds purpose, your soul possesses wisdom, and your journey is remarkably significant. You are integral to the enlightenment that the world so desperately requires.

During this remarkable and demanding time, modern spiritual seekers are not called to shun the world, but rather to weave together the spiritual and the material – to move as both substance and mystery, with grace and responsibility. Your purpose is not a solitary, fixed endpoint, but a living, evolving relationship with existence itself. Each day, through your presence, love, courage, and authentic self, you contribute to restoring balance and illuminating the path for others.

So today, pause, take a deep breath, and remember: You are a beacon of light and love. You embody the spirit manifesting through matter. And as you traverse your path, you are aiding in the creation of a new future for humanity – one imbued with love, peace, harmony, and divine purpose.

In moments of uncertainty, it can be easy to feel disoriented, overwhelmed, and disconnected from our purpose. However, remaining grounded and connected to our divine purpose is crucial for navigating through turbulent times with grace and resilience. By committing to a few simple practices, you can maintain your grounding and fulfill your divine purpose, even when the surrounding world appears chaotic and unpredictable.

One of the most vital ways to stay anchored amidst uncertainty is to emphasize self-care. This entails dedicating time to nourish your physical, emotional, and spiritual health. Ensure you are consuming nutritious foods, getting sufficient rest, exercising regularly, and engaging in activities that bring joy and relaxation. Caring for yourself in this manner will help you feel more centered and balanced, facilitating a stronger connection to your purpose.

Another essential practice for remaining grounded during uncertain times is cultivating mindfulness and presence. This involves being fully engaged in the moment, rather than becoming ensnared in concerns about the future or regrets about the past. Mindfulness can help you focus on what truly matters and guide you in making choices aligned with your divine purpose.

Additionally, connecting with your spiritual beliefs and practices can provide solace during uncertain times. Whether you find comfort in prayer, meditation, or other spiritual rituals, taking moments to connect with your higher power can help you feel supported and informed as you navigate through difficulties. Remember that you are not alone; a higher purpose is guiding you through even the most challenging moments.

Lastly, seeking support from others during times of uncertainty can be highly beneficial. Whether you reach out to friends, family, a therapist, or a spiritual advisor, having a support system in place can help you maintain your grounding and connection to your purpose. Surround yourself with uplifting and inspiring individuals who reinforce your focus on what truly matters to you.

By emphasizing self-care, cultivating mindfulness, connecting with your spiritual beliefs, and seeking support from others, you can remain grounded and fulfill your divine purpose even amidst uncertainty. Remember that challenges and obstacles are an inherent part of life, and staying connected to your purpose will help you navigate through them with grace and strength. Trust in yourself and the higher power guiding you; you possess the capability to overcome any challenges that arise. Continue reading →

Is it truly feasible to bring your life partner, your soul mate, your significant other into existence? Absolutely, yes, provided you approach it correctly. However, there is also an incorrect approach.

Attracting love isn’t about pursuing anyone or incessantly scrolling through dating applications — it’s about aligning with the type of relationship your heart yearns for. It’s about transforming into a magnet for the suitable person, rather than just anyone.

Whether you seek a soul mate, a life partner, a spouse, or merely a deeply satisfying connection, the enchantment begins within you.

Many individuals become disheartened when love eludes them. They assume it indicates something is amiss with them, or that love simply isn’t meant for them. However, often it doesn’t revolve around luck or timing — it hinges on energy, belief, and intention. For instance, if you’re clinging to past heartbreaks, doubts, or fears, you might be inadvertently obstructing the very thing you wish to attract.

The good news? You can alter that. You can elevate your vibration. You can remove the old energy and create space for someone new — someone who appreciates you, values you, and genuinely desires to walk beside you. Attracting love isn’t solely about beseeching God, Source, or the Universe for someone—it’s about proclaiming what you deserve and aligning your actions and beliefs with that inner truth.

Through the years, I have assisted numerous clients in my psychic readings on their quest to find love. Therefore, if you’re prepared to embrace love — not just any love but the right kind — these forthcoming steps will steer you toward successfully inviting in your beloved.

Grab a journal, light a candle, and open your heart. Let’s explore what works, what doesn’t, and how to genuinely make love transpire in your life — not someday, but right now.

When you possess clarity and commit to manifesting your heart’s desire, you will be drawn to those who energize you on every level…and they will be drawn to you ~ Annette Vaillancourt

Step 1: Believe It’s Possible

This might seem straightforward, but it’s where everything begins. If you don’t believe that a loving, joyful, compatible relationship is attainable for you, it becomes exceedingly challenging to manifest one. Doubt acts like a dead stop to your energy — no matter how hard you push forward.

Thus, the first crucial step is to affirm to yourself: “I deserve joyful, healthy love, and the perfect partner is on the horizon.”

Even if you don’t entirely feel it yet — say it anyway. Repeat it. Cultivate it. Mock it until it becomes real.

Step 2: Get Total Clarity

The Universe cherishes clarity. Your guides can provide direction, but only you can genuinely choose what you want or where you wish to head.

When you establish intentions, the Universe reacts accordingly. Clear and specific intentions undoubtedly function much better than vague, ambiguous ones.

Consider placing an order at a restaurant — you wouldn’t merely say, “Bring me food,” you’d specify precisely which dish you desire. Likewise, when manifesting, clarity aids in channeling your energy and focus directly toward what you want, avoiding sending out ambiguous or uncertain signals.

When your intentions are precisely articulated, you program your mind and your external environment to work in harmony.

Try this goal-setting exercise:

✵ Note down five things you seek in a partner.

✵ Then jot down five elements you wish for in the relationship itself.

✵ Finally, list five essentials — non-negotiables that uphold your emotional, spiritual, and mental well-being.

You are bestowed with the gift of creativity; you shape your reality according to your beliefs; yours is the creative force that forms your world; there are no restrictions to the self except those you accept ~ Seth

Step 3: Keep A Love Journal

There is something genuinely enchanting about writing. Putting pen to paper transforms nebulous aspirations into defined intentions — it’s a means of rooting your desires in the physical world. Maintaining a love journal is a potent and personal tool for manifesting the relationship you genuinely yearn for.

When you take the time to jot down your dreams, your ideal partner’s attributes, your emotional necessities, and even your worries, you’re not simply daydreaming — you’re asserting to the universe: “I’m ready for love.”

Your love journal can encompass anything that dwells in your heart. You may write letters to your future partner, outline the kind of life you wish to build together, or record the affirmations you need to hear. You can also document synchronicities, dreams, and signs that manifest as you progress through this journey of manifestation.

Keep your journal in a designated spot — your nightstand, your altar, or somewhere visible. Visit it frequently to renew your intentions and energize the passion. The more love, creativity, and sincerity you invest in these pages, the more alluring your energy field becomes. It’s not simply a journal — it’s a sacred space where your future relationship begins to form.

Step 4: Create A Manifestation Routine

Manifesting isn’t merely wishful thinking — it’s a consistent practice. It’s a deliberate, intentional endeavor to align your energy with what you aim to draw in. It concerns co-creating with the universe, your spirit guides, and your own higher self to introduce love into your life in meaningful and real ways.

Commence by allocating time for this practice. Choose a tranquil moment — mornings, evenings, or any time you feel most connected. Light a candle to signify the spark of love you’re invoking. Candles are vital tools that transfer intention into the energetic domain. Opt for colors associated with love, such as pink for self-love and romance or red for desire and attraction.

Then, pray or vocalize your desires aloud. Use the intentions noted in your journal. Be specific. Articulate what you want, what you’re willing to accept, and what you’re prepared to offer in return. The critical element is emotional involvement — truly experiencing what it would be like to be in this partnership.

This verbal articulation aids in grounding your intention and conveying it plainly to the universe and your spiritual allies. You might say something like, “I am open to receiving a loving, respectful, passionate partnership that supports my highest good.”

Engage in this practice weekly, or even daily if it resonates with you. Each time you revisit your intention, you amplify the message you’re projecting. The greater the energy, clarity, and love you invest in your practice, the more potent and magnetic it evolves to be.

To live your most extraordinary life, you must first lead yourself. Take control of your life, start attracting and manifesting all that you desire ~ Sonia Ricott

Step 5: Keep Up The Good Work

Consistency is paramount. Do you wish for love to enter your life? Then you need to keep dedicating energy to yourself. Continue your efforts — journaling, manifesting, meditating, clearing your energy, staying receptive. Even if nothing transpires immediately, understand that shifts are occurring. Each time you create space for love, you draw closer to it.

Step 6: Avoid The Common Pitfalls

Now, let’s address the incorrect approaches and typical errors that intentional manifestors make — because it is equally significant. Here’s what obstructs love from appearing:

✵ Doubt

✵ Overthinking

✵ Fear of emotional pain

✵ Not believing you’re deserving of love

✵ Accepting less than you deserve

If you’re perpetually questioning whether it will succeed or undermining opportunities when they arise, you’re subconsciously transmitting mixed signals to the Universe. Your guides can open doors, but you must still walk through them.

Step 7: Break The Pattern

Let’s face it — how many times have you remained with someone who treated you poorly simply because you were scared of solitude? That isn’t love. That is merely settling.

You deserve to be treated with kindness, respect, and joy. Anything less is not worth your time or energy. The more you reject what isn’t suited for you, the swifter the right match will come.

✵ Always attracting the same kind of partner? It’s time to reflect inward.

✵ Which patterns do you continuously repeat?

✵ Are you always the donor and never the receiver?

✵ Are you drawn to those who are emotionally unavailable?

✵ Do you lose yourself in relationships?

Whatever the recurring theme may be, it can be broken — but first, you need to identify it. Begin by making small adjustments in your everyday decisions. Minor shifts in how you treat yourself will create a ripple effect in how others treat you.

Destiny is not a matter of chance. It is a matter of choice. It is not something to wait for; it is something to achieve ~ William Jennings Bryan

Step 8: Do The Inner Work

Love doesn’t solely originate from without — it commences with self-love. If you don’t perceive yourself as lovable, it’s challenging to allow anyone else in.

✵ Nurture your energy.

✵ Refuse to engage in people-pleasing.

✵ Embrace your personal growth, healing, and empowerment.

You don’t have to be completely healed to encounter someone, but the more you recognize your worth, the higher the likelihood of attracting someone who reflects that value.

Step 9: Ask For Help

You don’t need to navigate this alone. Your team of spiritual helpers — guides, angels, ancestors — are always present, waiting to offer support. Request their guidance towards love.

And on the human front, seek out a reliable psychic or energy worker when feeling stuck. Occasionally, a session can offer a fresh perspective and unveil a new route. We’re here to assist you, help you recognize patterns, and redirect you towards the light.

Love is not about pursuit or imposition. It’s about alignment. When you align with your truth, your joy, your value — you become magnetic. Your future partner isn’t lost; they’re making their way to you. Make it easier for them to discover you.

Manifesting your life partner is a potent endeavor that entails establishing intentions, envisioning your perfect relationship, and taking inspired action to draw the right individual into your life. Whether you’re in search of a romantic companion, a soul mate, or a lifelong partner, manifesting your ideal relationship can assist you in cultivating the love and connection you desire.

Here’s a detailed guide to manifesting your life partner:

1. Set Your Intentions: The initial step in attracting your life partner is to unambiguously define what you seek in a relationship. Reflect on the traits and characteristics you wish for in a partner, as well as the type of relationship you aspire to create. Jot your intentions down in a journal or on a piece of paper to clarify your vision.

2. Visualize Your Ideal Relationship: After establishing your intentions, dedicate some time each day to envision yourself in a loving and fulfilling relationship with your ideal partner. Utilize your imagination to create a vivid image of what your life together may resemble, including how you would feel, communicate, and support one another. Visualizing your ideal relationship can help align your thoughts and emotions with your longings, simplifying the process of attracting your life partner.

3. Practice Gratitude: Gratitude is a powerful instrument for manifesting your desires, including your ideal relationship. Dedicate time each day to express appreciation for the love and connection you already possess in your life, along with the love that is destined for you. By concentrating on your gratitudes, you elevate your vibration and draw in more positive experiences into your reality.

4. Take Inspired Action: While attracting your life partner involves setting intentions and visualizing your dreams, it also necessitates taking inspired action to realize your vision. This may mean stepping outside your comfort zone, meeting new individuals, and being open to fresh opportunities for love and connection. Trust that the universe will lead you to your ideal partner, and be ready to take the necessary steps to manifest the relationship you wish for.

5. Trust the Process: Attracting your life partner is a journey that requires patience, trust, and faith in the universe. Believe that the right person will enter your life at just the right moment, and be receptive to experiencing love and connection in unforeseen ways. Maintain a positive outlook, focus on your intentions, and trust in your worthiness to be in a loving and fulfilling relationship.

In summary, manifesting your life partner is a powerful process that can help you draw in the love and connection you desire. By setting intentions, visualizing your ideal relationship, practicing gratitude, taking inspired action, and trusting the journey, you can create the loving and fulfilling partnership you deserve. Remember to keep a positive mindset, remain focused on your desires, and believe that the universe will deliver the perfect partner just when you need them. Continue reading →

It is common for spiritually aware individuals to contemplate the lives we lead and our influence on the world. We frequently ponder: are we making an impact? Is our involvement significant? How effectively are we serving our family, community, country, environment, spirit, the divine?

Some individuals’ legacies are characterized by accolades, breakthroughs, or public accomplishments. Others live as extraordinary inventors, artists, scientists, philosophers, activists, spiritual guides, leaving a discernible impact aimed at enhancing the world.

The names of those with such incredible legacies are immortalized in history, their contributions shifting the dynamics of societies and industries. We see their efforts in news stories and documentaries, and learn about them in literature and educational settings.

However, these extraordinary figures comprise a minor fraction of humanity. What about the remainder of us?

What of those who rise each day, not in pursuit of fame or wealth, but to carry out the humble yet noble duties of daily existence—raising children, caring for a household, approaching work with integrity, managing a small enterprise with bravery, supporting neighbors, rescuing animals in distress?

For many spiritual seekers, our life’s legacy isn’t about honors or acknowledgment. It is merely a reflection of the heart—a matter of being present daily, showing generosity, kindness, and compassion, and creating soft ripples of goodness that we send forth into the world.

It is a prevalent misunderstanding that a significant legacy must be conspicuous, grand, or imposing. In reality, some of the deepest life legacies are those that remain unrecognized publicly or recorded in history. They persist within the hearts and souls of others—manifested through the values imparted, the kindness presented, and the wounds subtly healed.

Inscribe your identity on hearts, not gravestones. A legacy is imprinted in the thoughts of others and the tales they relay about you ~ Shannon L. Alder

The parent who nurtures strength, resilience, and compassion in their children crafts a legacy of light that reverberates for generations. The teacher who encourages a student to have faith in themselves may never witness that seed blossom into a forest of potential. The supervisor who prioritizes fairness and respect over fear and control nurtures a culture of humanity in the workplace, affecting not only employees but also their families and communities.

Even the volunteer who dedicates an hour each week to serving meals or providing a smile to someone in distress might have inadvertently given someone the strength to persevere. These seemingly minor acts are the building blocks of invisible yet enduring monuments of love and service.

The Subtle Power Of Your Influence

Every soul you touch reflects your influence. This is particularly true on the spiritual journey, where our aim is not to impress, possess, or control the world, but to uplift and heal it. A simple kind word, a willing ear, or a shared moment of laughter can be more impactful than we realize. One person indeed can alter the world.

Your legacy may not be one the world can quantify—but in the spiritual domain, it radiates. Energy is never squandered; it flows through and around us, perpetually expanding. A compassionate gesture performed today might inspire someone to extend the same to another tomorrow, creating a chain of healing that goes beyond your conscious awareness.

When you approach life from a standpoint of intention, love, and service, you add to a collective field of consciousness that elevates humanity. This is no trivial task. The Earth is evolving not just through innovation, but through the transformation of hearts and minds.

How can you ensure you are contributing? Ask yourself: What can I do today, right now, to uplift another human being? The chance to create a legacy exists in every moment we are awake.

Can you demonstrate to a child the significance of kindness through your actions? Can you provide encouragement to someone struggling with self-worth? Can you maintain patience when the world feels hurried and reactive? Can you offer grace to someone who has erred, including yourself?

You need not change the entire world; simply change the world for one person. Whether it is in your family, workplace, or neighborhood, any offering of love, wisdom, or support will send ripples outward, amplified by the network of human connection.

I believe that if I can leave behind a legacy of love and passion in the world, I will have fulfilled my role in a world that grows colder by the day ~ Lionel Richie

The Legacy Of Your Daily Choices

By leading with presence and authenticity, people will remember how we made them feel. This emotional resonance becomes part of our living legacy. Legacy is shaped not just by our actions, but by the manner in which we carry them out. It hinges on the choices and decisions we make daily.

You can start to broaden your legacy today by simply choosing to:

— Honor individuals with respect, irrespective of their role or stature.

— Discover humor in challenging circumstances to lighten the load for yourself and others.

— Uplift those struggling with self-esteem by aiding them in identifying their inherent value.

— Serve as a role model, embodying the change you wish to see in others.

— Endure through difficulties, demonstrating to others that resilience is achievable.

— Steer clear of blame and instead foster accountability and understanding.

— Generously share your time, resources, or skills, acknowledging that even minor acts of kindness can create a lasting impact.

— Provide help without anticipation of return, realizing that authentic service is born from compassion, not duty.

These actions may appear straightforward but they establish a profound foundation of integrity and compassion. They become the energetic framework you leave for others to emulate.

As you endeavor to affect change, remember that perfection is not the objective. Life is chaotic, uncertain, and often burdensome. Sometimes, simply showing up is a significant act of bravery. On such days, keep this in mind: If all you can do is all you can do, then all you can do is enough.

Permit yourself to be vulnerable. Accept assistance. Connect with the community. Occasionally, your greatest contribution is to allow someone else to support you—and in doing so, you grant them the blessing of feeling needed and appreciated.

Your moments of uncertainty, hardship, and humility are not the opposite of your legacy—they are a crucial aspect of it. They reveal to others that grace can coexist with imperfection, and that strength does not equate to the absence of vulnerability, but to the readiness to advance nonetheless.

A legacy isn’t merely what is left when you depart from this world. It’s what you give, create, influence, and contribute today while you are here that consequently endures ~ Rasheed Ogunlaru

The Gift Of Paying It Forward

As you contemplate your legacy, take inventory of your blessings. Whether they are material, emotional, spiritual, or relational, perceive them as sacred resources to be shared. One of the most impactful ways to honor your life is to pay forward what you have received.

Has someone extended kindness to you during a dark time? Offer the same to others. Have you gained insights through spiritual practices or life’s trials? Share your wisdom willingly. By becoming a steward of your blessings, your legacy transforms into an act of sacred reciprocity.

You may never fully grasp the extent of your influence. Yet, take comfort in knowing: the love you share will live on, far beyond your sight.

A soul legacy is penned not in headlines, but in hearts. It is not quantified through achievements, but through alignment. It is the glow you leave in a space, the tranquility that follows your presence, the hope you unobtrusively inspire.

So walk softly. Speak your truth. Love without reservation. Share with an open heart. Live each day as though the world relies on the compassion you provide—for in countless unseen manners, it truly does.

Your legacy is not a target but a daily practice. It is formed moment by moment, with each breath, each choice, each act of grace. And in the eyes of God, Source, Spirit, the Divine, that is more than sufficient.

When we reflect on the legacy we leave, we often concentrate on our achievements, material possessions, and the effect we’ve had on others. But what about the essence of our soul? What does leaving behind a fulfilling life legacy truly signify, one that resonates with the core of who we are?

Investing time to explore the legacy of a fulfilling life involves understanding the influence of our soul on the surrounding world. Our soul represents the essence of our being, that eternal and unchanging part of us. It serves as the foundation for our values, beliefs, and passions—driving us to lead a life filled with purpose and significance.

When we lead a life in harmony with our soul, we tap into our true potential and generate positive transformations in the world. Our actions stem from our deepest desires and values, guiding us to make choices reflecting our authentic selves. This authenticity manifests in all our activities, from our interactions with others to the work we engage in.

The influence of our soul on our environment is significant. By living an authentic life, we motivate others to embrace their own true nature. Our genuineness permits others to be themselves, pursue their personal journeys, and experience lives filled with fulfillment and meaning.

Moreover, our soul creates a ripple effect in the world. When we engage in a life aligned with our core values and passions, we can profoundly impact those near us. Our decisions and actions possess the capacity to inspire change and create a lasting legacy that transcends our own lifetime.

Reflecting on the legacy of a fulfilling life invites us to assess the impact of our soul on the world. It encourages self-inquiry about what truly matters to us, what ignites our passion, and how we can live authentically according to our core principles. It challenges us to be true to ourselves, navigate our unique path, and make decisions reflecting our genuine selves.

Ultimately, a fulfilling life legacy isn’t centered on what we have achieved or owned; rather, it pertains to the influence of our soul on the world. It encompasses living authentically, positively affecting others, and establishing a legacy rooted in purpose and sincerity. It signifies an exploration of our soul’s legacy and its impact on the world surrounding us. Continue reading →

Recently, I’ve been receiving more desperate pleas from clients expressing sentiments like: “I truly don’t wish to stay here anymore,” “No one would even notice if I were gone,” or “This world isn’t meant for me; I never truly belonged here.”

This feeling of hopelessness appears to have surged lately. For numerous individuals, there’s an overwhelming perception that life is spiraling out of control. A growing number of people are grappling with profound disconnection and despair, instigated by the unyielding pace of global turmoil and disorder.

Some also articulate a profound internal estrangement — a silent suffering stemming from the struggle to align their sincere values and aspirations with a daily existence that feels harsh, unsettling, unkind, and fractured. The kindness, unity, or progress they once held dear seems absent, prompting them to question their role in the universe, or whether they truly belong here.

This serves as a potent reminder of the pressing necessity for the world’s lightworkers to emerge — to provide support, nurture optimism, foster connections, and strive for a more empathetic and sustainable future.

I, for one, do not subscribe to this bleak perspective on my existence and purpose in this world, as nearly thirty years ago I encountered a serious illness that almost claimed my life. This traumatic experience brought me to a profound understanding: we design our lives before we come into this world, and we all undoubtedly belong here!

During a phase of unconsciousness in intensive care, I experienced a vivid out-of-body moment. I found myself in the company of a council of wise spiritual advisors. They communicated to me that I had more work to accomplish. Even though I honestly hesitated to linger, their message resonated deeply with me. I suddenly recalled that I had selected this path — and the insights it would confer — long before my birth.

My hope, my deepest desire, is that you realize the immense bravery you exhibit in every single moment when, with each breath, you reaffirm your choice to embrace and learn from your personal challenges. In that acknowledgment, you will discover your soul ~ Robert Schwartz

This encounter, along with past life regressions and various spiritual revelations, affirmed what I now firmly believe: we all possess a pre-birth soul purpose.

I remember, for instance, a past life regression in which I envisioned myself hovering like a bumblebee over a vibrant green landscape. Upon sharing this with my mentor — an expert in past life exploration – he remarked, “Ah, yes, you hadn’t yet taken form. You were seeking your next incarnation.”

His words struck a chord. Indeed, I had chosen England as my birthplace for the experiences it would provide. While England was merely the starting line, I always felt that I would journey through numerous countries — some of which would resonate with me on a deeper spiritual level than my homeland.

You Designed Your Soul Plan

Prior to our incarnation on Earth – or even in other galaxies or dimensions — I believe we convene with our council of spirit guides, angels, and ancestors to discuss the possibilities of the lessons we wish to pursue. Some lessons are gentle, while others are challenging initiations. We also select our earthly families. Sometimes these bonds are rooted in profound soul love. At other times, we simply need to inherit specific genetic or emotional traits to fulfill a certain soul contract.

For instance, one soul might choose to establish a business empire — not solely for material success, but to confront the demands of leadership, integrity, and collaboration. Another might decide to endure abuse or loneliness — not as a form of punishment, but to master the sacred practice of self-love and recognize that their worth is inherent, not defined by others.

Equally important, we also select how we will contribute to the world — whether to uplift, heal, inspire, guide, protect, or teach.

One soul may become a healer, educator, artist, or caregiver, bringing compassion and illumination to where it is most needed. Another may pursue a more subtle path — nurturing a conscious family, supporting others from behind the scenes, or simply grounding peace in their communities. Some souls opt to challenge societal norms, drawing attention to injustices or inequalities as part of a grander mission to awaken human awareness.

These contributions may not always be monumental or widely acknowledged. Sometimes, a quiet act of kindness, being a steadfast presence, or simply listening with genuine compassion is exactly what a soul was destined to accomplish. No act of love or service is ever wasted.

I’ve once encountered someone characterize our pre-birth soul plan as akin to a “flow chart” — a roadmap with significant milestones, yet adaptable enough to accommodate the influence of free will. Synchronicities — those mysterious and meaningful coincidences — often act as nudges from our guides, subtly guiding us toward our upcoming steps. They tend to manifest when we least expect them, yet most require them.

Essentially, I believe we determine the path for our soul’s journey, but free will continues to play a critical part. We establish goals and agree to certain challenges, and during pivotal moments, we can seek the assistance of our guides, angels, and ancestors. I believe they listen to us — yet they won’t intervene in our free will unless we explicitly request it.

Like an artist who paints not to complete a canvas, but to experience the act of painting, the soul chooses embodiment to experience, evolve, express, and remember its own divinity through contrast. Physical existence offers the soul what the spiritual realm cannot: form, choice, shadow, and consequence ~ Ankit Gupta

Believe in Your Reasons for Being Here

There exists a divine spark within each soul — a distinct vibration infused with purpose. When we align with this inner truth, even amidst strife or confusion, we start to recall who we are and why we chose to inhabit this world. This remembrance holds tremendous power. It reminds us that we are neither lost, nor forgotten, and that we are never alone on this journey.

Even when life feels arduous or uncertain, your soul’s voyage is progressing. And despite appearances, the world undeniably needs your presence, your voice, your light.

Yes, we still possess the ability to shape our reality and manifest abundance. However, even if we’ve opted to face health challenges or encounter difficult individuals, we are never powerless. We always maintain the freedom to choose our responses — and therein lies our greatest strength.

So, please believe that you are essential. Even amid the noise, confusion, and chaos of the world, your existence is not by chance. Honor your soul’s purpose and embrace your path.

As the Desiderata poem so beautifully articulates: “You are a child of the universe, no less than the trees and the stars; you have a right to be here.“

Experiencing a sense of belonging is a fundamental aspect of being human. It’s the sensation of being accepted, valued, and understood by those around you. Nevertheless, there may be moments when we doubt our place within a particular situation or group. We might feel as though we don’t belong or aren’t good enough. However, the reality is that you do indeed belong here. Here are several reasons why:

1. You are one of a kind: Each individual is distinct, possessing their own skills, talents, and experiences. Your uniqueness is what renders you valuable and irreplaceable. No one else can contribute what you can, and that is precisely why you belong here.

2. You have valuable contributions: Whether it’s your creativity, kindness, humor, or intellect, you possess something to share with the world around you. Your presence enhances the lives of others, and this is why you belong here.

3. You deserve respect: You are deserving of love, respect, and joy. You have the right to be treated with kindness, and you are entitled to occupy your space in this world. You are enough just as you are, which is why you belong here.

4. You are part of a bigger community: We are interconnected, each playing a role in the larger fabric of humanity. Your presence is significant, and you have a role to fulfill in the world around you. You belong here because you are an essential part of the community.

5. You can grow and evolve: Regardless of your current situation in life, you possess the potential to learn, grow, and transform. You have the ability to overcome challenges, achieve your objectives, and become the best version of yourself. Your journey is far from over, and that is why you belong here.

So, the next time you find yourself doubting whether you truly belong, reflect on these reasons why you do. You are unique, you have contributions to make, you are worthy, you are part of a larger community, and you are capable of growth. You belong here, and the world is enhanced by your presence.
