The Only Person Getting In Your Road is YOU!

I'm not going to kid you.  It has been a ROUGH couple of weeks, and I truly have chosen it for myself. 

As an awakened soul on this planet, I now try to be as gracious with these moments as possible, because there is no going around it.  One must go through it, to see what blessings lie within.

In the end, the only choices we have to make our own.  And, we must be diligent in reminding ourselves, and allowing others to remind us, that the only one responsible for our life path is the one staring back at you in the mirror.  (Insert parents, please do your children a favor and start creating this awareness from a young age so we can stop this God-forsaken blame game once and for all).

You see, I have been on a mission since the moment I first laid eyes on "Long Island Medium".  It is that of bringing this work to a larger scale in order to further my mission on this planet.  I know what I was born to do and will spend my days on this planet, honoring that space.

Enter a letter, read early 2014, inviting me to connect regarding the possibility of bringing "Mountain Medium" to television.  As you can well imagine, my jaw nearly dropped to the floor, as this was the 3rd time in a matter of months that someone had come looking for me, (the other 2 invites were out of the States, and were NOT a fit in any way shape or form).  And, for those that know me, I have always been a starstruck kind of soul, so I took the opportunity and wrote back, in hopes of an opportunity still being there. 

Sure enough, it was, and the Character Profile (meet Donna Hartt, the "Mountain Medium") was shot in the Summer of 2014.  From there it was going to be taken to a team known for one (and now two) great shows already on Canadian Television.  I was elated!  As time went by, it had been quite some time since I had heard from the Producer, and so I made an inquiry.  Nothing had been done due to personal matters, which I totally respected and understood.  Of all people, I truly get it, nothing worse than when life's unforeseen occurrences throw you a curveball.  So, with a looming date of October/November for filming, I waited. 

Filming in October/November got set to "on track for filming March/April", which then got turned into "funding set for March/April", and........................nothing.  I began to feel "not right" when January entered and I still hadn't heard.  This prompted not one, but TWO e-mails regarding where we were at for the project, as I had, and still have, people lined up that are brave enough (thank you) to film with me, and if funding was set for March/April, shouldn't something be happening?

Enter a response (finally) stating that the Producer was "inspired" to act upon the footage and that they would cc me copies of all the correspondence taking place between they and the team. When I received said "cc", I felt like I was punched in the stomach.  Not only did the letter indicate that there had been no previous correspondence, it clearly pointed to the fact that this was the first time the team was being reached out to!  It was glaringly obvious that the team had never even heard of me and that absolutely NO funding was set in place.

Enter devastation and the visualization of a dream dying in a most explosive way.  Because not only had this person lied to me, but the person that it was to have been sent off to was retiring from their position four days after receiving the film package (which I phoned and e-mailed to confirm that this was actually done, because clearly the originator of this project was NOT, nor ever to be, trusted again).

KABOOOOOMMM!!!!!!

And, as a sensitive person on this planet in more ways than one, this one truly rattled my cage.  I was done, in a flash, and into victim mentality.  "How could I have not seen this coming?  Why would someone do that to me?  How dare you?!!" yada, yada, yada.

It is in these moments that I am truly grateful that I allow these feelings to run their course, feel them, if and when necessary, and allow them to be what I know they are.  Blessings.  For I truly believe that our greatest accomplishments arrive in the "dark times".  I mean, it's easy to be happy and grateful when you are happy, but it takes a true hero to grateful for the tough stuff.

These tough times are designed to forge us, they are also here to show us what it is to truly be human.  They also show us our shit.  And here is what I have learned, and continue to learn (have learned and received a necessary refresher), while I nurse the emotions of this particular shi(f)tstorm:

1)  Never rely on anyone else to get the job done.  You are responsible for that.

2)  The only person getting in your road is you.  If you really want something, nothing and NOBODY will get in your road.  You are responsible for that.

3)  Psychics don't know everything, especially when it comes to their own life.  I have been so hard on myself for this one.  I "knew" something was up.  I just blamed it on personal matters going on, and was being my patient self up until that  moment of realization.  You are responsible for trusting your feelings.  TRUST THEM!  If something doesn't feel right, 9 times out of 10 it ISN'T! 

4)  Forgiveness is everything.  Forgiveness isn't about the other person, it is always about the self.  What another person did is their own story.  Forgive them for their humanness, and forgive yourself for anything you "think" you might have done wrong.  It does not mean you have forgotten about the incident, it just isn't wreaking havoc in your psyche anymore.  See #3.  TRUST is an earned space once blown. Don't let mistrust get in your road of other opportunities waiting for you, forgive the soul for the stupidity of taking their story out on you, and forgive yourself for trusting in someone who should never be trusted again.

5)  Be gentle with yourself.  You are going to feel a range of emotions when one, or several at a time, of life's challenges enters into play. Don't deny your feelings, let them be the teacher for you.  Feelings are wounds begging to be addressed, honored, and healed.  Sadness and hatred eventually put us in a better place, because they are the outward emotion of a fear-based thought pattern.

6)  Let Fear be your greatest teacher.  Most of the time, reactions like the ones listed above are based on fear.  False Evidence Appearing Real.  Fear of loss, fear of rejection, fear of the future, you get it.  Enter my fear space.  I thought that this person was my avenue to television.  While in reality, Producers are just the funders for projects, NOT the persons responsible for the yay or nay on a project (Thanks Q for that one!).  I refuse to let fear be a space entertained for long.  So should you.  Like the saying goes, "The only thing to fear is fear itself".  Embrace fearlessness!


7)  Don't give your personal power away.  This one's a tough one.  We have learned to rely on one another (and I believe that is where a sense of community should come into play), but some of the ways we do this are not healthy.  Enter the Co-Dependent space Donna has been releasing for the past year and a half.  My nature has always been to help. I want people to feel better.  So, when people make me feel good about something in my world, I tend to put too many eggs in one basket.  Thus this particular lesson on relying on somebody else to get my job done.  WRONG ANSWER!

And this leads me to the most valuable lesson in my world at the moment, despite being familiar with it.  Guess I needed a refresher.  LOL.

8)  You are responsible for your life/your choices.  I knew something was up.  Something didn't feel right.  But, I had a fear space based in a thought pattern that this Producer I was working  with was the one that was going to help me fulfill a dream.

Wrong answer.  And while I have the right to be mad at someone that lied, the only person I truly have the right to be mad at (and I won't stay that way for too long), is myself.  Lessons learned.  My story will be told my way with the right team handed to me by the Universe.  WHEN the time is right an not a minute sooner.

I, am extremely grateful.

Repeat after me folks:

I am responsible for my present.

I am responsible for my future.

I am responsible for my own personal greatness.

I am loved at all times.

I am always taken care of.

I am enough.

I thank the Universe for all that has been brought before me......by MY choices.

Nuf said.

To the Girls Running Around in Women's Clothing

So, a few days back I took a run at the boys, and it seems only fair to do the same to all these little girls running around in women's clothing.  And, I say that if you take offense (like I heard so many males did with my post, that it's okay, because I'm uncovering your shit if you get offended), then you had better take a good long look at what you're doing and consider a tweak (not a twerk) or two.

The only reason I feel safe in calling you on shit is because I call myself out all the time, and I am always open to being called out by others.  It is where true growth begins (and I wish people would have done it sooner rather than later in my life, but I am sure glad it's happened).  I have been "that girl" and I want to help prevent "those girls".

You see, I consider myself a later bloomer.  I finally started coming into my own around then and setting some really healthy boundaries in my life about what is, or is not, acceptable in my life.

So here's the deal,  grow up!

From about 20 forward we all start to settle into our new brains and this is an admonishment to pay attention sooner rather than later.  Trust me, you will be so grateful that you have done yourself that favor.

Unfortunately, life, and in particular for women, hands real curveballs in the form of mental and physical abuse (and yes this happens to males too, and far more often than, unfortunately, males want to admit and its part of what gets in the road for them these days too).  It messes with a head.  And it goes something like this.

If we are among the abused, whether it is physically or emotionally, it is what we get used to at a young age.  We learn that being treated like crap is the only way we feel we deserve.  Wrong answer!

As a little girl, I was one of the abused, and from the time I was 5 until 8, I never used my voice to tell someone what was going on.  I carried it with me until I was around 22, when I finally told my mom.  It fucked with my head.  Add to this a deemed, on my part, emotional abandonment when puberty kicked in, and enter daddy/men issues.  Add to this all those fluffy movies that urge us to look for our Prince Charming who will come in and save the day, and you have yourself one hell of an emotional mess.

But eventually, through time, and experience (some good, and some not so), I brought nyself to a place of womanhood where the only person I looked to save me is ME!!!!!

Listen up ladies, nobody is responsible for your happiness but you.  I get that when we enter into a relationship we have asked our Prince Charming to save the day for us, but it's not very fair if we put that on them now, is it?  NO!

The abused becomes sexualized or demoralized (verbally) and feels that sex, or being verbally abused, is the only way we can get someone to love us.  And, as we get older, we start to shift into that space where we recognize that sex doesn't bring us emotionally closer.  Getting closer emotionally brings us to sex.

We can't run around putting out and expecting a different result if we haven't set the standard first.  We all are a privilege not a right.  But because us ladies tend to run around in our "daddy issues", we wreak havoc on everyone else's life.

NOBODY IS GOING TO SAVE YOU BUT YOU!  Time to put on your cape and become your own superhero!

So, here's what it looks like if you want to have happy, healthy relationships, with men and women alike. (Insert this is a really, REALLY good article for young folks, and so is the previous one as far as I'm concerned).

1)  Stop dressing like your 16, and dress your age (and if you're 16, try dressing like a lady.  Sexy is a confidence space, not a slutty clothes space - insert there is nothing wrong with dressing sexy, but there's a difference between slutty and sexy).  Guys see tits and ass and that's how they are going to see you.  Show them your brains, your talents (outside the bedroom), and what values you hold dear in your life.

2)  Stop putting out after the first, second, or third date and beyond.  Hell, my husband didn't get there until we were three months in and he had been screened by friends and family (I had to learn to trust my judgment).  A space of intimacy is truly "into me see".  You can't tell what someone is like even after three months, but you sure can get a general idea.  And, if you are knowingly walking into a one night stand, don't you dare for one minute think that because you have put out the guy is going to change his mind.  This RARELY works, and you have just set yourself up for selling yourself short.

3) Start getting to know you.  What do you like?  What don't you like?  What do you value in yourself?  Another person?  A relationship?  What talents do you have?  What are your strengths?  What are your weaknesses?

4)  Don't think that getting yourself knocked up is going to keep a man.  Trust me, it rarely ever works and now you are left with a tie to someone that doesn't love you.  Sound like fun?  Whether you are 14 or 45, it DOESN'T work!  And stop saying, "I accidentally got pregnant".  All of the tools to prevent pregnancy are available to anyone!  You got yourself knocked up for your own selfish reasons without any forethought to the implications and longstanding impact.

5)  You have the right to say, "No", to anything or anyone that devalues you.

6)  Stop being so bloody nice!  If there are unacceptable behaviors going on in yourself, or others, speak up!  We don't have to be the mothers and wives of yore who put up with it because the man makes the money.  We are no longer cattle and should no longer allow others to treat us as such.  If you are out on a first or second date, and you are getting bad vibes....RUN!  Unless, of course, you want a life lesson, which can be valuable too, but be smart enough to know when someone leaves a sinking/sick feeling in your belly, that's the "bad vibe" and the Universe trying to tell you, "Don't do it unless you want to get hurt."

7)  Start taking responsibility for the choices YOU are making!!  And I have a PRIME example of this in an extended family member.  This young lady got herself knocked up early for the sake of trying to keep a man and has been running to mommy and daddy ever since, or boyfriend du jour, because she can't get her financial shit (or relationship shit for that matter too) together because it's "everybody else's" fault.  (I get it, we have all needed help, and we should be able to turn to family in times of need, but it should not be an EXPECTED space and we should want some drive to handle our own financial matters).  GROW UP!  We all make choices from the time we are little, and it's up to ourselves and our parents to create awareness that our choices land us exactly where we are at.  So stop lying to yourself, lying to others, and take a really, REALLY good look at what YOU are doing to create the situation you are in.

8) Stop selling yourself short!  We (notice WE, not they) are running around allowing society to tell us how we should look, feel or be.  We are all individual beings with our own individual flare.  Some of us are big, some of us are small, and some of us have started not to give a care at all!

This is my wish and hope for you....be yourself, express your needs, and say "No" to anything or anyone that diverts you from your course.

So get your big girl panties on and turn yourself into the Goddess you so rightly deserve to be and stop blaming others for your unhappiness!

Nuf Said!

Change is by Choice and NOT by Chance

Well didn't that summer fly by in all of its craziness!!  I, too, was not immune to the great big Universal push of, "You will sit in your 'work' and rid yourself of the past trauma and drama whether you like it or not".

And on the heels of that, I have decided to hand some "tough love" out to the males of this planet (and those females that are more masculine than feminine).  I have seen too many relationships fall by the wayside (and let me tell you mine came close so this is NOT a 'do as I say, not as I do' moment.  I was in it myself.

Please take in that this is not "man bashing".  Rather, see it as the fact that I love you all enough to show you the way to complete and utter happiness within the state of your relationship.

There are too many boys running around in men's clothing.  And, quite frankly, us ladies have had enough.  We are tired of being emotionally neglected and tired of seeing you walk around with the burden of any past woes that are long gone and over, resting firmly on your shoulders.

It is time to become the "thinking and feeling" man that today's woman requires.  It is time to own that you, too, are feeling beings who have the right to express themselves.  Because listen, it is NEVER about the person, it is ALWAYS about the behavior.

No relationship is ever perfect, (what??!!), but we all have the right to committed and nurturing relationships.  Yes, I  look at my own shit first before I point the finger at somebody else's so don't think I am getting high and mighty here.  Because therein lies the problem that we haven't given you guys the opportunity to embrace.

WE are feeling beings who are very emotionally aware and we are trying to bring out the best in you.  Who cares what your mother, father or neighbor did or didn't do.  Who cares who hurt you in high school, and who gives a flying fuck whether you want to do something or not.   We are BEGGING to be connected in the deepest way possible.  A heartfelt connection.  One that means that you take a good look at your behaviors, see what is or isn't working, how you may be getting in your own road, and what it takes to heal the emotional traumas and dramas of your past.

We have fatherless sons and daughters walking around creating more fatherless sons and daughters.  We have little girls begging for affection from their dads (and yes there are mom's out there like this too), but the majority of the grief being caused is by women who have "grown up" and their men who haven't.

So to you males walking around in your hurt and refusing to reach for the stars and grow, grow, grow, don't you deserve a better life?  We think you do and that's why us ladies are all getting so fed up.  For those that were never shown the way a man should "lead" his household, it looks something like this.

1) Your partner deserves a date.  At LEAST once a week.

2) We work just as much, and sometimes more, than you do.  We typically manage the kids, the house, and a full-time job.  So do yourself a favor, and start adding the little list of things that you will do to say, "I'm committed".  Pick up your socks and put them in the laundry basket, fold your own laundry, and go the extra mile.  If you see the washer cycle completed, do your partner a favor and slide it over to the dryer with a fabric sheet would you.  I'm basically telling you to beat us to the punch.  (Insert I don't care if you make more money than she does, if she is working the same amount of hours she is working just like you are.)  Some of us house illness also.  I, personally do, and while I don't expect anyone to coddle me through a rough day, consider that some of us may walk around in constant pain and could use a "leg up" once in awhile.

3) If you have kids, take time once a week and have some individual time with each of them.  All it takes is an hour or two, and you will notice a difference in your children.

4)  Always look in the mirror.  Could you have handled something a different way?  Could you have "done better"?  Is there something hurting you deep down and you have been afraid to let it out?  Drop the shackles of the caveman and move into your heart.  It's where you'll find us.

5)  Be devoted to investing time in yourself.

6)  Don't take things personally when we are "beating you up".  Use it as fuel for change.  We love you, we are just asking for more from you now.  It is about leveling the playing field.

7)  Get involved with the Universe.  The Other Side really exists.  It's up to you to test the waters.  

We are tired of being "mothers" in our relationships.  And I know that some of you fellows out there have been turned into "daddy's".  Trust me that's the fastest way to take the sizzle out of ANY relationship.

All of us deserve better from each other.  PERIOD.  We can't do it running around in the wounds of our past.  These times call for "better" from each and every one of us.

So, I say this, kudos to each and every male out there that is a "stand up" guy.  The one that does what he says he will do, the ones that sit for hours and let their daughters paint their nails or their sons build railroad tracks (or paint their nails too for all I care), and the ones who have owned their "manship".

For those that have made the choice to "dig deep" for a change, I applaud you.  I cannot THANK YOU enough!

(Insert thank you darling husband for the AMAZING leaps and bounds you have made in your own life. I LOVE YOU with all my heart and I am so glad I get to enjoy this ride with you!)

It's time for each and every one of us to "grow up" now.  The Universe is begging us.  And, if we do, nothing shy of miracles start to occur.....

The New Year's Evolution

Every year people take the time to look back over the year for the experiences it had to offer.  I sure did in my last blog.  Now, I want to take a step forward, into the New Year, and create evolution, not resolution.

Every day I make a conscientious choice to be "better" and to learn "more".  About myself and others.  The "mistakes" of the past are the lessons learned to help create my new environment.  We all have the ability to do it, but it is a choice.

This planet is yearning for something new.  Something different.  Something absolutely amazing!  And it all begins with the Self.

Love requires that we dig deep to shuffle and change and rearrange.  All I want is to be the best person possible and do what the good Lord has asked me to do.  My work.

Part of my work involves reaching out to souls that have experienced loss.  Part of the work involves reading the soul in front of me and helping them to realize or see their true potential and all that their life has to offer. 

It is about hope.

Hope that humankind will see "the light".

Hope that humankind will make it "better".

I truly believe we can. 

It is going to require digging deeper than we have ever known.  It is going to require cleaning out our own personal closet.  The joy of cleaning out our own personal closet, is that it leaves room for something new and exciting!

For those of us that have children (and it does not take blood to meet that requirement and they do not have to belong to "us" -nieces, nephews, friends.....just sayin'), we have a responsibility.  To leave them better than the generations before. 

I encourage you to honor that we live an a time where anything is possible.  We are the creators of our Universe.  No longer are we bound by the Monday to Friday, 9 to 5, work like a dog and get nowhere fast.  We actually live in a time where the possibility of doing something you absolutely LOVE is a reality.  The times demand it.  Corporations are crumbling, leaving room for creativity.  Like the saying goes, "Necessity is the mother of all invention". 

RE-INVENT YOURSELF!  I believe in you!

HAVE FAITH!  We are all in good hands and there is a Divine Plan for each and every one of us. 

Parents, discover the amazing children you were GIVEN as a gift from God.  Do not repeat the past you lived in.  Embrace the change, knowing that you are providing your children a better future.

Mothers and Fathers - You have a name that belongs to you, it is not just mom and dad.  YOU are an amazing person too!  You have dreams, wishes, and desires that yearn to be fulfilled.  Get out there and fulfill them!  Be the person you have always wanted to be!

You no longer have to listen to the voices of the past, but get the opportunity to embrace your voice of the future!

Our future has the opportunity to be re-written.  It all begins with each one of us.

So, out with the old, in with the new, and let the magic begin!

I truly have faith in all that you are. 

Ignite the fire within.  Dare to lose the box and run with your arms open wide into the New Year that gloriously awaits you.

Through LOVE all things are accomplished.

TO EACH AND EVERY ONE OF YOU:

Thank you.  Thank you for being part of my journey.  You have all contributed to making me a better person on this planet, for this planet.  I mean it.  EACH AND EVERY ONE OF YOU.

THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!

May 2013 be all the you dream it into being!

2013 and Beyond - A New Year's Wish

Another year has come and gone on this crazy planet called Life.  What have I learned?

1)  Life Isn't Always Easy.  What We Choose To Do With It Is:

From the minute we enter this world living begins.  I write to undo the sinkable words of our past. "Life is easy.  It's the living that's hard."  I choose to see it this way.  This life is the biggest school we could ever be in, and the longest school we will ever attend.  What are YOU going to learn from it?

This past year (heck the past five years) have been some of the most personally challenging times of my life.  However, I have made it through the other side with a new sense of wellbeing.  For I have come to the ultimate personal truth.  MY LIFE IS WHAT I CHOOSE TO MAKE OF IT.

Growing up, I can remember rearing my ugly head at the "unjustness" of the world around me.  Nothing was "fair" and I "never" got my way.  Everything was a challenge.  And I am totally okay with that.  I knew growing up my parents loved me.  I knew I was cared for, and that if every single belonging burned to the ground I would still have my family.  It was, and always will be, the most important thing I could ever have in my life.

Now, as an adult, I have had the opportunity to see just why my life was the way it was.  Because as things seemed to be "falling apart" around me.  They were actually falling into place.  The perfect place.  Right here right now.

You see, that's all we have.  Right here right now.  No other point in time exists.  And every day we have the choice to create the world around us.  Yes, life isn't always easy, but it can be happy.  We are asked to live our best lives possible.

And, if we use our Inner Guidance system to steer us, it is more easy than it is difficult.  Remember, YOU are the one responsible for what happens in your life.  Honor who you are and what you love to do, and you will amaze even yourself at all that can be accomplished. 

You can choose to be a victim of your circumstances ("why me?"  "Poor me", yada yada yada)or you can choose to volunteer for the life that has been presented to you. 

If you can learn to dance in the rain, you have learned the dance of life.  Your life is yours for the embracing!

2)  Faith is Everything

Faith isn't just about believing in a Higher Power, it is about believing in yourself.  When you can learn to tune out the chatter around you and listen to your own True Voice, that is a testament to Faith in oneself.  And, if you are having problems with that (as we all do), then that is when the Truest of Faith is to be utilized. 

We have a Parent (Parents??? I truly don't know everything about the Other Side) that is bigger than the parents we have on the physical plane.   The Cosmic Design Committee has our best interest at heart and has a plan for each and every one of us.  We are well taken care of here on Earth, even during difficult times.

People tend to reach out in times of need.  Have you ever considered reaching out just to be thankful?  Try it.  For, in that moment, life truly opens up to the amazingness it has to offer:

-  I wake up and say thank you.  For I am truly grateful that I did. 
-  I say thank  you for the challenges, for I get to see what I am made of.  I have discovered I am   
   Titanium.
-  I say thank you for watching over me and having my best interest at heart.
-  I say thank you for my family, for without them I wouldn't be here.

Faith provides me the comfort in knowing I am truly never alone.  For if "God Brings You To It.  He Will Bring You Through It."

I am grateful.

3)  Love is the Only Reality

We have seen heinous crimes against humanity rise each year, and everyone is asking "why?"

I believe, that deep down inside, we know.  It is because we have forgotten to love one another.

First of all.  Children are a privilege.  Not a right.  We do them no favors by spoiling them with things, when in fact the only "thing" they need is our love.  People that shouldn't have children do, and there are those out there that should and can't.  It is a cycle I wish to be broken.

Pregnancy doesn't "Just happen".  We make it happen.  It is a choice.  And, should the circumstances find you with child, your only charge is to LOVE that child.  And, if you are unable, give it to someone that will.  It is the best gift we could ever give that child. 

Love them enough to provide a loving home.

Sometimes all it takes is a loving gesture.  To anyone.  Anywhere:

- The person holding out the cup for spare change (I like buying them something to eat or getting a
  drink for them). 
-  The elderly couple struggling to open a door
-  The Schizophrenic who is struggling with their thoughts
-  The girl with the sad face
-  The boy with the greasy hair

Love them for they truly are our brothers and sisters.

4)  I Am Committed to a Better Planet

By changing myself I change the world.  We all have the power to do it.  And every day I will continue to reach out and encourage each and every one of you. 

You are ALL deserving of Love and Encouragement. 

You are ALL important to me.

May the time known as 2013 find you growing in Faith (in yourself and others), and drowing in love!  

Love is the cure we are all looking for.

The Clairs for Christmas

I have decided to do a series of "Christmas Spirit" blogs and today I want to start with an introduction to the Clairs.

There are many ways that Spirit use to connect with us humans.  And we all have the ability to experience Spirit, it just may not be the way that us Mediums do, but it is still VERY possible.

So, I am going to start with the easiest one and I am sure it is one most of us can relate to.  It is called Clairsentience.  Translated means "Clear Feelings" or "sense".

When I am having a session or even just a quiet talk with my care team, something really amazing happens.  The shivers.  It is the very essence of Spirit reaching out from the Other Side.  Hair on the back of your neck will stand up, you will get the shivers, it is like someone has run a cold breeze through you.  It is confirmation that Spirit is, indeed, around.

Think about when you reach out to have a conversation with your loved ones on the Other Side and you experience the chills or the hairs on your arms stand up.  You may even experience goosebumps.  That is the FEELING of loved ones around. 

Accept, Embrace, and Cherish it.  Honor that it is truly your loved ones around.

These kinds of conversations are not common conversations, and I am hoping that by sharing here, anyone can come to connect with their loved ones.  I have always maintained it does not take a Medium to experience Spirit, and that anyone can witness the power of our Loved Ones just by honoring that what they are experiencing is truly happening.

So take time today to sit quietly and honor those no longer among you in physical form.

Spirit exists, we are living proof of it.  We just have to learn the language of Spirit in non-form.


Accept - Our loved ones are with us even in Spirit Form

Embrace - Your loved ones can, and will, reach out from the Other Side

Cherish - That what you have felt is nothing but Pure Love reaching across the veil


May The Spirit of Christmas find you filled with the Spirit of Love 365 days of the year.


 

Meditation - The Key to Connection

This morning I had the pleasure in participating in a global movement called, "The Master Shift".  A Guided Meditation being hosted throughout the world at the same time for anyone to participate in.

The guided meditation was beautiful and they will be doing another one later on today.  It is in honor of a date and occurrence that will never happen again in time.  The last consecutive date 12-12-12.  Numbers will never fall into alignment like this again.  It truly is a "moment" in time.

At the heart of the meditation was mankind's ability to bond together to create a better planet.  At a few points along the way, I actually found myself welling up with sheer gratitude at just how beautiful the meditation was.  The words of encouragement profound.  Let's just say I've bookmarked the meditation, and it is well worth visiting the site.

What struck me though, was the kindly reminder of just what meditation is.  A moment of inward reflection.  There are alot of beliefs held that meditation is about silencing the mind, but I say this.  It is about turning inward, honoring self, and connecting with the home we call Earth.

Meditation is used to ground, and is a truly vital part of the work I do.  If I do not ground, my abilities as a messenger are "scattered".  It is really easy for me to connect to the Other Side (Heaven, Home, There), I have done it all my life.  The challenge has been to plant my feet firmly on the ground and do the work, and I cannot be the best channel without grounding first.

Here's another kicker for someone like me.  I prefer to meditate alone and send out love and healing to this planet.  I always imagine myself connected to the Universal Energy, and send out my love to all. 

With today's meditation, there was a moment of opening up your palms to receive love, and honor for just how important each and every one of us is.  And, guess what happens when Donna opens up.  She opens up!  And, at a few points along the way, I saw and felt the connection of just how many were participating at the same time I was.  The love was Divine, and I truly did feel a shift.  A shift within.  To a spot where we have all taken a moment to honor that we live in one world.  Together.  And that we truly can change the place we call Home.

My Christmas Wish for this planet is that each and every one of you realize how truly unique, and amazing you are.  We all have the ability to dig deep and truly start reorganizing this planet.  It starts with honoring who we are and what we have the courage to embrace as our role on the planet.

I say it's already started, and it will not end until the true Shift has occurred.  A re-writing of mankind's ways to a helpful and loving environment for everyone to enjoy. 

How?  By taking time each day to connect.  To You.  For in connecting with you, you connect with the ALL.  And when you connect with the All, the magic of your life truly begins.

The Spirit that moves people at this time of year is a Spirit I embrace each and every day of my God-given existence.  Shouldn't we all?

Much love to all.  And a HUGE shoutout to the amazing beings who organized "THE MASTER SHIFT".  Thank you!!
