Akashic Records

A friend told me about the Akashic Records years ago, but it sounded so far out that I didn't pursue learning more. Then about a year ago, she told me about a new book: How To Read The Akashic Records by Linda Howe.

The book makes the subject approachable.  It explains that we all have a record of our past lives that is being tenderly guarded, and is accessible as we are ready. It can be used for asking questions regarding our spiritual path.

I have been using the records to ask what I can do to further my career, meet the man of my dreams,  be a better mother, clear obstacles from past lives, and obtain greater happiness.

Namaste,

Recognize Coincidences

When you are clear in your intentions, the Universe plays the backstage crew and sets up the 'coincidences', accidents, and occurrences that allow your intention to come to fruition.

Be aware so that when the coincidences happen, you can recognize them and thank your angels.  This will increase the frequency and speed at which your dreams manifest.

Everybody likes to be thanked.

Namaste,

Dream Dictionary

Dream dictionaries are a must on a spiritual journey. What better way  for your angels to let you know where you are at on your path then in your dreams? There is no filter, guilt, blame or excuses. You aren't too busy to listen while sleeping.  Life's current movie is playing every night.

But, the messages can be confusing and misunderstood. A dictionary helps. The one I use is 'Dictionary of Dreams' by Rose Inserra and it has served me well.  There are other great ones out there.

Remember to keep it by your bed so that it can be referenced as soon as you wake up.

And if you are one of those people who never remember their dreams: ask your angels for help. Just before sleep, ask to remember your dream in the morning. Believe it and start telling yourself that you do remember your dreams.  It may take a while, but your angels can do this.

A special thanks to my brother and sister-in-law for the gift of my dream dictionary.

Namaste,

Are You Spiritualer Than a 5th Grader?

My 5th grade son wants to have his own youtube channel. He is not making excuses as to why he has not done it, or why people aren't watching it, or how it can't be done.

Rather, he has a plan of how to get a camcorder, has set up the youtube account and made a facebook page, thought out what he will post, and given his family code names to use.  He has a goal of when to have it up and running.  He has envisioned how many subscribers he will have.

He has told the Universe what will make him happy, and taken the steps to show he is sincere.

And I get to be the lucky one who sits back and learns from watching him. Thank God for children to teach us.

Rolfing

Structural Organization, or Rolfing, is a series of ten deep tissue massages designed to realign the body back to it's natural state. Each session focuses on different muscle groups. By the end of the ten treatments, the client will have near perfect posture.

As the body holds memories and emotions, the sessions allow for a release of past negativity.  With an aligned posture, positive energy can flow more freely.

The sessions can be intense. It takes a brave spirit to allow the release of past pains. But the 'new' that evolves is worth every moment of the sessions.

Words of advise: if you decide to undertake the sessions, be sure that you feel comfortable with the practitioner and that you are in a good space in your life to undergo the treatments.

Namaste,

Role Break

Ever notice that you are living out 'roles'? You are a: male/female, parent, worker, joker, leader/follower, teacher/student, lover of ...?, anything you call yourself. These things are just roles, they are not your true self. 


Take a moment right now and through out the day to be aware of your roles. There will be the obvious ones, but over time you will notice the more subtle ones. A friend may tell how they view you, giving more role realization.

And then, take a break from your role.  Take that role off like a worn sweater and see how it feels to not wear it.

This will get you closer to the true you.

Namaste,

Fire Cupping

Ever seen someone with two inch red circles on their back? No, they were not beaten with a rubber ball. Probably, they had received fire-cupping.

Fire cupping is an ancient asian practice of heating up glass cylinders  with openings at the bottom and then placing the cup on a tight muscle. The heat and shape of the cup work together to draw out toxins and muscle pain.  The cups loosen once the toxins have been released. At the end of the treatment, people generally feel better and are more relaxed.

I highly recommend trying it. You can google fire cupping in your area to find a practitioner. Just be sure to wear a shirt afterwards that will cover the work so you don't look like you've been abused.

Ant Messages

Ants teach us to slowly build up our lives--don't rush.  They live in huge underground palaces but their slice of heaven was not created in one act.  Working steadily together, they tunnel out their dream life.

Rather than spray your home with poisonous ant spray, be aware of the messages they are giving. Keep your home clean, wipe off the counters and cupboards, and keep sugar and honey in the fridge. It takes more time, but your health and respect of the earth is more important than quick harmful fixes.

Whatever path you are on, it will come, one cookie crumb at a time.

Namaste,

Distractions

Do you have a long-term goal? For various reasons, as we walk the path toward our goal, we will put up distractions to keep us from that goal. The reasons may be fear of our own excellence or not feeling that we deserve it.

Examples of distractions include eating junk food while on a goal to lose weight, dating the wrong person because they are available, watching excessive TV.

If you have been allowing for distractions, be gentle with yourself and acknowledge what you have been doing. Then decide that the future can be distraction-free. In this present moment, feel your goal as complete and make the steps towards it.

Love yourself as you make your journey.

Namaste,

Earthing

Earthing is the technique of touching the earth in order to pair earth's electrons with the our body's free roaming electrons. This can improve your health, free you from pain, and give more vitality. 


Some examples of earthing are  spending more time outside barefoot, hugging a tree, being in the ocean, or digging in the garden. We benefit from having a stronger, more direct connection with the earth. 


To learn more about earthing, visit www.openingspaces.com


Good bye for now--I'm off to do some barefoot gardening and then take a dip in the ocean!

Chakra Healing

Chakras are color energies that have seven major spots along your spine: root, spleen, solar plexus, heart, throat, brow, and crown.  Each of these areas are effected by your surroundings and other people. Keeping them aligned and healthy has a positive effect on your emotions, spirit, and body.

I have had chakra alignments done and come away feeling healthy, grounded and energized. The chakra aligner placed a crystal hanging from a thread over my chakras.  While keeping her hand steady, the crystal circled over each area either counter or clockwise at varying circumferences. This showed her which areas needed healing energy, which she then sent.

There is a great website I discovered called www.chakraenergy. com in which you can learn more about your chakras and what you can do to keep them healthy.

Body Vibration

Occasionally during massage, I have felt a slight vibration on a client's body.  It's like touching a speaker and feeling the vibration of the music.

This, I believe, comes from having a body with free flowing energy.  Stress and tight muscles blocks this flow.

In order to have a healthy body that allows for a natural vibration, you can practice yoga or tai chi, get monthly massages and acupuncture, exercise, meditate and maintain a nutritious diet. Also, be at peace with where you are in life.

It is not often that I feel that healthy vibration on people.  If we take the effort to allow our vibration to flow, life will be able to flow within and around us--effecting our whole world for the better!

Namaste,
Heather

Gentle Disclaimer

My disclaimer: Instructions, advice, and suggestions that I am giving are all coming from someone who is also going through the process. I am on the path to more happiness and greater awareness, and, same as you, am stumbling, falling off, losing sight, and needing reassurance from my guides.

Let's all be gentle on ourselves. We're in this together.

Namaste,

Everyday Adrenaline

We get 'high' from every day things:

  • the thrill of living paycheck to paycheck--how will we pay those bills?
  • complaining and being able to feel superior to our complaint
  • gossiping and running the risk of the other person finding out what we've said
  • being late, making others wait for us, and getting the attention of arriving late
  • controlling situations and watching others squirm
  • stress
  • being a victim gets us sympathy
  • having a medical issue, more sympathy, and bonding with other sufferers 
While these are exciting in the short term, they are not fulfilling.  They are distractions.

Recognize and expose your Everyday Adrenalines. Then replace them with positive creative ways of living.

Find a new way to happiness.

Namaste,

Eradicating our Witches

While giving massages I have seen negative forms leave people's bodies, had ancestors come to visit, and angels assist me. Recently was the most incredible event I had ever seen.

The client was an older Asian acupuncturist who told me she had been plagued by a witch. At first, I thought she meant a metaphorical witch--my western mind not grasping her reality. But then we started working and I saw an eye on her leg watching me and could see the witch with my third eye. I poked the witch's eye and felt a scratch across my face and heard her calling me obscenities. After massaging her leg and pulling out the excess energy, she still would not leave.

Finally, I knew that what it came down to was my knowing that I was stronger than her.  Putting my hand on the place the witch had initially entered, I felt my power.  The witch came out. I put a protective bubble around my acupuncturist friend to prevent re-entry. It was amazing.

What strength do you hold in life? You have done amazing things. Next time life presents you with a challenge, remember your power. You are always stronger than you think you are.

Namaste,

Path of Happiness

Having just moved to a new part of the state, away from familiar things, I did a meditation asking to see my path. What I was shown was a path that slowly went away, leaving me in complete darkness.

What was I to do? Where should I go? How do I know how to get what I want?

Then I realized that I already was standing on firm ground, I just couldn't see it.  The path that I am to take is up to me--Universal Support never left.

I am continuing the path I had already chosen--toward increasing happiness.

We are all connected. We are all supported. We can all chose happiness.

Namaste,
