Computer Contributes to My Spiritual Path

Here is a great metaphor: my computer has been having trouble with its power (cord). Hmm..... Last fall I got the socket repaired, but now it often just switches to the batteries. Then I notice and fiddle with the plug to get the power to reconnect and charge up the batteries. I've been told this is not repairable. Finally, a week ago, nothing I did could get the power to go on. I forwarded myself some files and ordered a new computer.

To my surprise, sitting without the lure of email was so restful. I could hear myself think! One insight I gained was using my new Spiritual Cleanse oil to clear out old grief and pain from a specific issue. (I'd been using it for general cleanses until now.) Again, it surpassed my expectations, very wow. In the silence of my office without even a computer fan, I channeled a beautiful invocation for using the oil. On the kids' homework computer, I added it to the booklet about the oil, which now feels complete!

Also, "coincidentally", two people contacted me about getting together for coffee. So in addition to finishing my first product, I had two extremely nurturing conversations with what the fictional character Anne of Green Gables calls "kindred spirits". It was so wonderful. So even though I thought I should be panicking about not working on a big writing project I have, the week felt like a little retreat!

And then guess what. My computer started working again! Without a glitch for three days now, when before I couldn't go three hours without a fix. What do you think about that?

Out with the Old...

Noodling, noodling... I identified a ton of grief and unhappiness from a part of my high school era that I want to clear. The fact that I could still feel it so very strongly was a big warning sign, though it took talking to a high school friend for an hour and thinking about those times to remember it. (That means it was really buried.) I have a teacher who says if your goldfish dies, it's OK to be sad for a while. If you are still sad 12 years later, something is off. Grief and other emotions that drag us down should eventually fade as we come to accept and relate to what happened. When they don't, something is sort of "stuck" energetically. I've worked for almost a decade to help people clear these out with energy work, and it's been so rewarding to watch them shift.

Fortunately, I've recently put together an oil that does a spiritual cleanse. It energetically cleans out old outdated stuff that can slow down your spiritual journey, to make room for the Light. I just used it with a client this week, and at one point I could feel old tears coming out of his face, possibly from a family death about 5ish years ago. I've been using it for general, spring-cleaning sorts of spiritual cleanses, but it occurred to me to ask if it would help with this old grief. The answer? YES. I tried it yesterday. It was an extraordinary experience. And now when I think of this time of my life, even when I really try to wallow in the feelings, all I can think of is the fun and interesting parts of my life then. I can feel a tiny bit of melancholy, but most of the rest of it is just GONE. That means I can be more present in The Present. I am so grateful.

Blessings on your journey.

Old Friend, New Lessons

A dear, dear friend from high school just contacted us -- he will be visiting the area next week! (We live several states away from our high school so this is unusual!) Interestingly, over the last year or so, people dear to me from my past have been popping up again, one by one. It's almost been a reverse chronological sequence, and now we're back into high school. Until I thought about seeing him again, I had forgotten how connected we were, had forgotten a lot of things from that time. (We never dated, just connected on a deep level.) And I am surprised at how emotional I am about seeing him again. I know it's time to clear something!

How about you? What challenges are you facing in your life? Emotional, physical, situational challenge or some drama? Pain does not ever happen to us because we "deserve" it. That's an erroneous, limiting belief. But I do know pain happens exactly when we are ready to deal with its spiritual source. So know that whatever is happening in your life, you have the capacity to deal with it, to resolve the underlying issues -- to say what needs to be said, to end what needs to be ended, to fix what needs to be fixed, to start again, to apologize, to forgive, or to love anyway against reason. If it's happening, you can handle it. If it feels overwhelming, get help. Knowing when to ask for help is part of knowing how to help yourself. Use all the resources available to you. I know you can do it.

"Hello, friend!"

A client just reminded me of this story, thought I'd share: One day late last summer I was working in the garage at the same time that my husband and my father were putting together a window frame on the opposite side of the room. I was in a wonderful, expansive mood, thinking my thoughts, having fun painting my funky paint scheme. (It's cobalt blue, aqua, orange and yellow in big Seussian blobs and swooshes. Who said garages had to be boring?)

Little black bugs would fly past and hover by me from time to time. Feeling slightly alone on my side of our large garage while the guys had their conversation or used the loud saw over there, I would whisper "Hello, friend!" to the bugs and send expansive happy energy their way.

After an hour or so, the men finished their project, and as they put things away, I overheard one say, "Damn these biting flies! They're terrible today!" "Yeah," said the other one, "They've gotten me a few times, too."

Biting flies? I was surprised. Nothing bit me once. Now I can't be sure that whatever bit them just failed to visit my side of the garage, but it made me wonder... My little bugs were flies... Did my treating them as friends mean they treated me as a friend? What do you think?
