You can purchase my new book Universal Stretches online at BuyBooksOnTheWeb.com, or in Canmore at either Cafe Books, Spirit of the Earth, or my office at 201D, 749 Railway Ave. Lyn and I invite all interested to attend the "Universal Stretches" book celebration at Cafe Books on October 1st from 2-4 pm.

As an introduction to the time and place around the taped discussion (which you'll find in Part One: "Healing Within Individual Issues"), Lyn and I have been running two Intuitive Development Groups. In these groups we focus on healing our resistant energies so that more of the light if you can call it that or lightness starts to fill our lives. The anger, pain, and frustration that life deals us on a daily basis can be managed or ultimately transformed so we can keep centered. These emotions that we experience, that throw us off our center, we will call lower vibrational or the denser energies. There has been scientific proof through specific testing of our DNA that love is the highest vibration as opposed to fear. Gregg Braden has done most of this research. You can access more information at www.greggbraden.com.

Look at the colors of the rainbow. Beautiful as they are, each color of the rainbow vibrates to a different frequency. So do emotions, red being the lowest and violet being the highest vibration as with fear versus love. In healing the resistant energies which can act as obstacles in our lives, we then create more space for the love and light allowing the sense of freedom which as spiritual beings having a physical experience is an environment we need so we can flourish. There is truth to cleaning up the negative thought patterns in our life so that we can learn or remember to celebrate life with the joy filled celebration of being here.

Many books have been written exploring this topic. One that comes to mind is “The power of positive thinking”. Also, each person has a unique ability regarding developing their intuition. Very often we see images, colors, hear messages or we can sense heat, cold, energy changes in a room. In the groups we spend time exploring each ones gift and giving specific exercises to develop it.

The groups of people that are participating in this discussion have also focused their energies on global healings. Some of the participants are in the healing profession, an acupuncturist, psychiatrist, massage therapist, a few are moms, there is a couple who are expecting their first born child, a carpenter and an accountant. A good percentage of this group are self employed as well.

We meet once a week for a few hours over a structured time frame which maybe 12 weeks or 6 weeks pending on the time of year. This specific group has been together over the full year. Two members that work in the healing arts have come into this 12 week run as new members. They have a knowing of energy so it worked that they be present.

I bless and honor them for journeying with me and contributing to my personal growth. My additions to the script will be seen as Italised.

Spiritual Stretches

We are going to do a little warm up for those beginners joining us in this experience.

These are a few stretches that have affected my life profoundly with their simplicity. Done as frequently during the day they have transformed my life or reality in to a heaven on earth. The illusion of living in pain and sickness has not served one of us and to experience home here on earth is a deep peace that only the soul can know. Its expansive knowledge will embrace all who ask for it. It is like a veil that needs to be lifted and all is one. Healing of duality and separation is integral within us and of this world to evolve to what we all are. The cosmos and spiritual energies all aid in transmuting and transforming the density so we may rejoice in light to a life of peace and grace for all. The struggle will end and the love that surrounds us and has surrounded us always will now be felt and experienced. In peace and unity please join me in these simple ways of transforming or re-claiming the journey as divine beings that we all are.

Feeling Energy

As we begin, it is important to know we all can feel the energies around us. The wonderful feeling you feel when you encounter something in Mother Nature that speaks to you. A beautiful tall tree you feel drawn to eat your lunch under on a sunlit day. The joy the gentle rain gives you as it dances off your skin or window pane wherever you may be. Being in a room with those you love and feel the safety and peace it brings you as opposed to entering a room with a group of people you may not know and sensing who you feel drawn or safe to sit beside as you wait in a doctor’s office.

We all know what it feels like when we avoid sitting beside a person or energy that gives us the No feeling. In simple terms you have just had an awareness of energies around you. All these observations or responses are responses to energy that we or others hold.

A simple exercise to help you further get a tangible experience is, place your hands about 6 inches apart then bring them slowly together then apart. You may feel a tingling or some resistance as you bring them together and apart several times. That is your energy. We all have energy fields that surround us as well. When we feel heat from someone’s hands as they touch or hold a place of physical pain that we have is a type of healing energy coming from them. It always feel peaceful and comforting never invasive.

When my daughter was younger, I described it as having the Yes feeling or No feeling from someone. This gave her a simple vocabulary to share her thoughts or perceptions of people.

Start from this moment forward to incorporate this awareness in your daily life. Notice those that give you the Yes or No feeling, knowing that your personal radar is communicating to you, and then the next part of the learning curve is to trust it. That is where healing the resistant energies will serve the purpose as part of the steps of the journey in awakening the healing within.

As we plant that seed and watch it grow we learn more about the plant. Be patient, for sometimes when the plant grows it is imperceptible to us, trust in the process for the plant’s stem will come and then the leaves and in time the flower.
