How to give back to yourself

I have a question from Ginger. She says, “I was led here for a purpose and I thank those responsible for doing so since I have just recently asked for help, guidance and teaching for my own growth and evolution. I have so many questions, but the one that should be asked is, what do you want me to know at this point in my journey? I've made it to a point where I want to learn how to use my gifts of empathy and clairsentience positively and productively. Up till now, in this life I don't believe I've utilized it in a manner that's conducive to my personal or spiritual health. It's time to take my next step because I have a feeling that I will be needing it soon.”

Blessed, blessed woman. You have many abilities, to help. And many times you have helped without realizing how far reaching it went. Know that there are always going to be some trials. But try to always balance them. For you I would say balance is one of the most difficult things—its’ all or nothing. Just BE my dearest one.

You are very wise. You know what is right for you. You have given so much. How does one change that balance and give it back to yourself? Sometimes it’s just by being still. Sometimes it’s just by allowing them to say thank you and just receiving it. Don’t always push it back at them. Be still my blessed one. Receive. You are doing very well. There is a time coming again when you are going to be, as usual, completely immersed in things. Allow this space. Be in peace.

Thank you.

Swine Flu

Kristine asked about the new virus that is spreading (swine flu). Can you please talk about viruses?

This is not new. Viruses have been part of this physical plane forever.

It’s just a new mutation?

Yes. And they are a needed part of this environment, believe it or not. You are going to learn in your not too distant future that viruses cause most diseases. Viruses are great at bringing things back to square one again. They are the things that dismantle. And scientists may believe that they are almost like from outer space because they are so un-bacteria-like.

They are so different.

Yes, but they have a great purpose. They are not to be feared. But realize that within this area of destruction there needs to be a cleansing. Don’t fear them. Just be strong and clean and healthy within your own being. Understand that they are all over the place, everywhere, a constant part of the physical domain that are always changing.

Well I remember hearing that on this physical plane there always has to be a negative, some illness or problems…

To create growth.

And these are part of that?

Yes. Exactly.

And so, if we don’t want to suffer from a virus, and if it’s not needed for us to have this growth, we would need to protect ourselves from it, we would protect ourselves by taking care of our health in the normal way and…

And not fearing.

Ah, not fearing, of course. It’s the fear that upsets me.

Yes, it is the thing that people do without even consciously realizing. They are building their brick houses and there really is no need for that. Just the belief in all that is good or positive. Or asking, how can I help? Instead of running away from it. These beings will never get the viruses that will take them down in that way. But let it be known that everybody gets infected by a virus from time to time.

Of course.

Your immune system, the systems of the physical body are amazing, miraculous. You are all walking miracles. Each cell has the most amazing information within it. Viruses work within this real, this world that we are not consciously aware of. But each cell gets the same information from the master switch, which is your spirit, your brain, the communion between body and mind. It tells the cell: No, you’re not going to let that enter. Or it tells the cell: You’re afraid and weak, and thus saying, come on in.

Succumb. I see. It’s very interesting.

This epidemic, episode, will not be long lived.

Yes, that’s my feeling too.

And calling it swine flu is very unnatural. This virus can transfer into pig because pigs’ bodies are very similar to the human body, the energy, the vibration. If can attack them as well. There are viruses that cross into many different creatures.

Thank you.

Apologies for the delay in responding to some recently posted questions. Jane has been very busy with family recently so we haven't had much time to get together and channel the responses.

Worry about a son with mental health problems

Jane asks about her son who has mental health problems along with drug and alcohol addictions. She says, “At the moment he is going through a rough phase and is moving from place to place in BC lasting no more than a few days. Traveling with no money and no sense of direction. Every day I run through the gauntlet of emotions from sad, angry, scared, worried, depressed. He says he hates his life, and wants to change but he doesn't know how to break the circle. I have offered suggestions and encouragement. I am worried at the moment about his safety. Will he settle down and have the life that he wants to have? He has such a beautiful heart and I love him dearly.”

Yes, dearest mother. It is very difficult for you to watch and see this. You know, in your world sometimes, the best way to help another is to be what the other is. What do I mean by this? I mean when you speak to your son, why don’t you share your thoughts? Why don’t you share some of the things you have done that have...not created his path…. But in some ways when a being is in such chaos as this one, sort of bashing recklessly from wall to wall, he is reflecting a need you have within yourself to heal.

If you speak to your child that you too need to heal…. If you draw him close, of course it is your choice. It is not an easy path, but there is a way in which you can both heal your beings. Say that you cannot make choices for him but you can do for you. And you want to help yourself, and if he chooses and is willing, you will be there for him.

Of course you cannot do it for him, and this may take some time. But see him as, just someone careening about trying to find strength within himself, trying to find center. There was a time when you were that center for him. Go back to that time, both of you. Try to retrace your steps. Do not put guilt and blame into this scenario, bring love into it. Bring warmth and support and love. This will not be easy for you, but it can be done.

You have a choice, dearest mother. Do not waste worry and guilt. Speak of what you are going to do. Teach, and this will help.

So rather than telling him what he should need to do, she should talk about her process?

Yes, but not in a self-centered way, and I don’t mean that in a negative. Not to say, Oh hello son, this is my problem. But she could, if she chooses, say: I believe your problem is my problem too son. I think that way back when, when we were really close…. If we could just get there again…and both of us work towards something. I know I have had my problems and you have had yours, and they each are different.

But in some ways the two of you have come to grow and learn. It doesn’t mean, mother, that you are totally careening about. It means that there is a deep part of you that isn’t healed, and you know this. You hoped that it could just pass, but you need to go into your own pain to help this one.

OK. I’ll pass this information on.

Thank you my dear. Tell this one that she is very much loved and there are many around her supporting her now. They are not so much in the physical world, but they are in the spirit.

Spirit helpers?

Yes.

I’ll tell her that. Thank you.

Are we meant to be together?

Barbara asks, "Can you tell me if David has been in my past life and were we meant to be together. He is on my mind constantly. I have been told that I have a great love coming and wonder if he is the one? If he isn't the one, why am I so obsessive about him and how does he feel about me? I have gained tremendous growth and feel ready to enter into a relationship."


This one definitely has been in your life before, that’s why the attraction. That’s why your energies lift when you come together. As to his choices at this time, it is much more difficult for him. He has different complexities at hand.

Does it mean he is the one, that you should be together? In fact there are three entities very close to you right now that could truly be great, deep, long partners for you. You should allow yourself to drift in this beautiful haze of attraction and love. Let the fantasy awaken all parts of your being. Worry not as to what the conclusion should be at this time, but understand that this is apart of your evolution. For so long you have put your love on hold. And this being has awoken a wonderful part. If that be it alone, then that be perfect. If there be more it is not entirely up to you. Others are involved. I cannot tell you the future my dear, for that is in your hands. Trust that there is a purpose and a reason for all manner of experience at this time.

Thank you. I’m sure that will be very helpful.

I hope so. Barbara is a very proper person. She doesn’t ever want to be made a fool of.

I don’t think any of us want that.

Ummn, and yet it is a joy – to be a fool.

The purpose of writing your life story

Vanessa says that during a reading with a medium about a year ago, her deceased mother and daughter asked her to write a story of her life. She says, “It seemed ridiculous because I am not a famous person, my life has been somewhat difficult and a little bit different, but not special enough to write a book about it, I would say. Still, I promised I would try and am about 2/3 of the way through it. Can you tell me why I would have been asked to do this odd thing? As I write it, I feel foolish that I am doing it.

Why would a being feel foolish to talk about their life? That is the question. Not so much that she was asked to do it. For a part of her wants to do it, part of her needs in this process to heal her path, to see it for all its wonder. To see the magnificence of many things she has done and is not willing to give herself that. This one is a very evolved being.

Many times a being will follow a path (for instance as in writing a certain text) but the process of writing was not so much to instruct others as to heal themselves. And this perchance be what she needs to do. An opportunity to focus on what is really important. This one has such magnificence and in some ways has limited herself. Mnn.

Keep writing. Humor yourself. Do not feel foolish, for there is nothing about your path that should make you feel this way. Keep on with your writing.

Thank you very much.

To work in a traditional job or to stay home and develop

AJ Adams asks for guidance with these words: I am at professional crossroads in life. I have gone back to college and obtained a degree, and while it is a very marketable, well-respected degree, I have little desire to work a traditional 9-5 job. While I am far from lazy, I feel no strong pull to engage in any work right now. I'd love to spend some years taking care of my family and developing myself. Problem is, our current financial situation demands I work.

I believe I am an old soul. It wouldn't surprise me to know my end calling (work) is in the line of helping people through metaphysical means (education, maybe even healing), but currently I am at a loss as to what to do. I have a business idea I could pursue (not sure how much time this would take me away from my family or if it would even be profitable), I could go to work in a traditional setting (feel suffocated), or I could stay home (I'd be happy, but this would handicap my family financially). Do you have any guidance? Thank you so much for your time and thoughts.

Blessed one. You are afraid. You are afraid to fail. You are afraid to radiate. You are afraid to be totally in all ways. You have created blocks and hurdles in every way. In some ways you fear success, yet you speak the words of what you want. It is true you are overwhelmed right now and very tired. And it would not be a bad thing to take some time--to heal, to be with yourself, to understand some of your actions and your great pursuit to attain certain things, and why when you achieve it you are somewhat afraid of it, you find that it isn’t quite enough.

Oh blessed one, just be still. See all that is with you. Understand that you could do any work to bring in money to help your family, if that what makes you happy. But you are, right now, so overwhelmed by many things, and so many experts, and so much information and people demanding—that you are afraid to let them all down. You are afraid to even speak your true heart.

This creates a state of discord within yourself, so and you won’t be able to make a clear decision on what you need to do. So why not choose some small, unimportant job. Don’t put all the emphasis on it at this time. If you need to feed your family, that is important to you. Do that. But I fear you are just choosing one burden for another. And so I make no choices for you, for this is a time when you need to just be still. Hear that that is growing within you of what you need to do. Know that there are many that will help you. Many.

Thank you. I’ll pass this information on.

The economy, fears and creating abundance

Kristine asked about the economy and fears about money. She says, “I have read that the only block or barrier keeping money at bay is the fear of not having enough and that anxiety creates a repellent energy field that blocks the energy of money and abundance. Some people seem to have guilt about wanting to have money. How can we let go of these fears or any guilt and let the abundance flow?”


Firstly, this wonderful being has read too many theories. And it’s quite simple. You know that your universe, your world, reality is created support you in all your desires and endeavors. And in truth, if a being puts out to the universe, “I do not have enough money”…then the universe says “then that is what you want—not enough money.” It’s not that you’re creating an energy to block it; it’s that the universe is answering what you put out. Simply, the universe says: Not enough? Alright you will never have enough.

To recreate that you just need to say, “I have abundance. My life is full and I welcome all.” But truly, in the deepest part of you, you must believe it. You must speak it out loud. Rewrite all your inner voices. There is no great technique to this; just catch yourself any time you say a negative about having or needing or wanting. Change it into being.

Many of the great ones have spoken to you about being that that you are. That means releasing all the shadows of the different understandings of who you are from all the different concepts in your life’s path--whether you be too little, too big, too…whatever. And releasing all of it and just being the radiant light, the speck of God, the brilliance of who you be. And welcoming all of the wonder of the physical world to you. Because it is a wonderful world you have created for your growth.

Ask and you shall receive is true. It’s come through in many ways in your world, through many thinkers and sages and saints. It’s no different.

But when we ask, we need to do so in a positive form, not in a needy form, is that right?

Yes, because if you’re needy, inside you’re thinking, “I don’t deserve this but I want it.” I am—therefore I can be”…whatever it is.

Many of the religious concepts and other theologians have said that things must be in a prayer and must be placed in certain ways. Not so. Release yourself from all ritual and rules. Be as naïve and wondrous as a child that believes in all the wonders of the world. For they are truth—and it’s not childish.

I know what you’re thinking my dear. You cannot believe that something good will happen when something bad is happening. Something good will come out of it.

I know that. I’m thinking too about people who have a fear or guilt, about not feeling good enough to have the abundance, or who feel judged by others or themselves. And it’s easy for you to say, “Be that that you are”…but it’s not often that easy to…

It is their choice. It is each individual’s choice. Free will, the basics of being present in the physical world. Free will. It gives you choices in how you will walk your path; how you will attract that that you need and create the world that you want. Free will.

I choose to draw to me all the blessings of the world. I choose to be the light and love that I am--and that only shall be in my life.

And so what does a being do when one is worrying about debts that were created out of needs and wants. They stand and accept the choices that were made, and say to themselves, “Alright, I understand. I wanted that. But now I understand that that’s not what makes me feel whole and well. Because it created another problem—one that burdens me more.”

So this is what you must look at. Why do you create burdens for yourself? Why do you limit yourself from being the light that you want to be? You put it to the sidelines, thinking “well one day I will have this.”

But stop in those very moments and say, “Today I am—perfect. I have this moment. I have these choices. I choose not to fester and draw in more negativity. I choose to be filled with love and abundance. I choose to speak to these problems that I have. And say, “I want them healed.” Whether it be through the actual banker, and they will hear you and help you. There is plenty of help. But most often beings pull themselves away into a corner and pretend it isn’t there, and these things mount up on the outside.

Don’t be so afraid blessed one. Stand strong in the being’s light and thus emanate that that you are and draw it to you.

Thank you.

Communication problems

Kora asks about a friend named Al who she has had some problems communicating with. She says it has caused a distance in their relationship. She had tried to open communication with him but he shuts down her efforts and this hurts her heart. She asks if there is any advice about how to communicate and understand him better. Or is this something that’s just not working out?


It’s very clear that this being wants very much to have a relationship with Kora but is unable to at this time and so she must accept that. This one is frightened of her. Her bright, bright light is sometimes just overwhelming and he feels unable to communicate. It’s all very difficult for him; he has never had this openness. And speaking of true, deep feelings is very difficult, even though for her it might not seem difficult at all.

Tell her to just be loving, never face-to-face. Never demand an answer. To be that that she is, full of light and love and just radiate this to him. And in her gentle, non-intrusive way to welcome him back--with no demands. She sometimes is a little bit too bright. but that is not something she can control. To others who feel they have yet much to do, it can be overwhelming. When she is with him, tell her to just be still. To not do direct eye contact but just open her heart to him. To not feel that she should fill all the moments with words of great intuition of knowledge—but to be, as she truly is, a most wonderful being.

And so he does care for her?

Yes, but he’s afraid of her. He doesn’t realize it’s a fear. He just realizes that like this pushes him to make decisions and work. Is this bad for him? No, but if she wants him close she must be still right now.

I will pass that on. Thank you.

A grandmother's concerns about visiting her family

Barbara asked about her son and his family. She lives a fair distance away and stays with them when she visits. She is concerned that they uncomfortable when she is staying with them. She asks, “Is it my own insecurities that are creating these thoughts or do they really have issues with me? I sometimes think that my daughter in law feels intimidated because of my profession as an early childhood educator and she being a first time mother that I may be critical of her upbringing of this child. I would never interfere with the raising of my grandchild, they are doing a wonderful job of doing that themselves and I have told them this. So why do I feel this way?

She is a most sensitive being. And there is a definite discomfort but nothing that she needs to plague herself about. It is quite natural that two women in a household with one man in common can have these difficulties. It’s not that there is any threat but that both are trying to be sensitive of the others need. If this makes her so uncomfortable she should stay somewhere else and just come to visit. She definitely doesn’t need to worry about them not allowing her to be close to the child. They know she has the child’s utmost important growth in her mind and intention.

She asks is the daughter in law threatened. Is she threatened? Both a little bit, yes. It is not unusual for this to be the case. Both want the best.

Any final words for Barbara and her family?

That she should fill her heart with love for them and they will for her. She should always remember that it is truly difficult for him to be with two women that he loves dearly and wants to please completely. Give him lots of space and time to be who he needs to be. And to never demand anything; that it is an honor to be present in their family. And if she wants to be wanted then she must be filled with love and total acceptance.

She can give give herself a break by not always being so close when she visits. I know it’s difficult at a distance; but she can do this. Their communion is much greater than physical anyway. She can be talking to them and laughing and feeling joyful. Tell her if they speak of a problem to just listen, not analyze. And she can say she knows they’re very good at being parents and she totally feels at ease with that. For it is difficult to be a grandmother but it is also the greatest blessing.

Thank you. I think that’s helpful.

Changing jobs

Andrea asks about her job. She says, “I seem to go back and forth as to whether I want to stay in this job or not. I really just want to be happy in the present and excited about what is to come, but I do feel torn. My current job should be my dream job but my stomach hurts when I think about it. Any insight you have is wonderfully appreciated."

Dear, dear one, the very fact that your body is telling you this (and also the fact that you’re back and forth about it) is saying to you that this is not the right place for you. It may have some of the conditions that would be right, but not all of it. Does it mean you throw it all out? No, what you do is ask yourself which part of this is causing such concern and distress in your being.

A part of you would like to leave it all completely and live in a little rose cottage somewhere in a lovely meadow. There is a part of you that wants serenity and quiet and a simple, pristine life. And a part of you that wants the flash and the hype and all of the quickness of it all. And a part of you that needs to give to your universe, to help others grow. And so, being all these many amazing parts, you find out which ones fit. Know that there will be many that will fit. Know that there isn’t just one thing that you’re going to do, that there will be many. This will help lighten the terrible stresses upon you that you must fit so much.

Know that you are a multifaceted being. You have many parts of you that will shine, and can shine, in other directions. So be patient. Ask yourself. Use this amazing brain you have. Ask your body: Wwhy is it so tense? What part of the job is causing this? Is it the people? Is it one person? And if that is the case, then address it with them. Solve it. Take attention to it. Or, choose to move in another direction--there are many you could take. Do not feel yourself needing to be held hard and fast in one place. You are an amazing creature and have much to give your world.

Thank you. It’s not an easy time to be changing jobs now; there are many people who have been let go of their jobs.

Just because some are being let go, doesn’t mean everyone should be in fear. And if one is in a position that is making them very uncomfortable they mustn’t stay there. If it is causing them difficulty, there is something else they must do. You see the fear that flows right now is very intoxicating and it causes much distress among people that are just a little unsure of what they are doing. It affects many. They must take deep breaths and realize that they needn’t be in fear. They know what they need to do by listening to their being, by knowing who they are. They must find their truth. They’ll be fine.

A global evolution of consciousness

Nichole says she’s growing and expanding so fast. She says, “Sometimes others around me, think I’m nuts, but I know what I know and recognize as truth. The more I honor this recognition, the more it blesses me with more truth, and creates experiences, situations and meetings that are perfect for my journey. I feel that we, as a global race of human beings, are experiencing an evolution of consciousness. Am I way off here? Should i see a psychologist or embrace it and move forward?"

Blessed one, when you chose to move forward and open the door, of course it would it all come rushing through forward like this. And it is very true. Just give yourself time. Take deep breaths. Allow the information to flow through you and resonate within you. And your truth will be very, very clear to you.

It is a time of communication with many. But there are many that will not be able to communicate in this way, nor will they desire to. So don’t forget all forms of communication are important at this time. You are not crazy. You are in fact very in tune. In fact you perhaps could help a psychiatrist if you went to help them. But for yourself—just be in that that you are. You are doing very well.

Thank you. And what about this global evolution of consciousness?

Yes, it has been spoken about to you by many. It is the overturn of souls, or the correction of an imbalance that had occurred. It takes some time. You’ve seen it in history many times and even before your time of written history. Times when things would get out of balance. And it takes some shifting--there were often wars and all sorts of things at these times—to correct, to move forward, to evolve. It is truth.

So we are in the process of doing that?

Yes.
