Inspiring Book Gives

Dreams New Meaning

Dream Talk - Your Hidden Biography -

It's all about you!

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE - May 1, 2008, Edmonton - Dream Talk - Your Hidden Biography, a new book byEdmonton author, clairvoyant and 42-year dream expert Irene Martina has a unique and novel approach that provides 11 powerful keys that help people decipher the deeper meaning of their dreams.

The book also takes all aspects of dreaming to a clear, simple and practical level using Irene's profound spiritualinsights. Irene Martina's book provides the reader with the knowledge on becoming fluent in the language of theirown dreams and to understand how dreams can affect their life and their future.

Dream Talk is a lifelong tool to assist the reader in discovering who they really are through their dreams. The bookeven gives insights on how to manifest one's future, and ways to develop deeper relationships with the key peoplein their lives and to unlock the mystery of dreams forever.

"Most people wake up from a night's sleep and can't remember their dreams or the sequence of events are foggyand confusing, thus the dreamer doesn't give it a second thought," says Irene. "What people don't realize is thattheir dreams can act as a unique channel through which they have access to extraordinary guidance and healingthat can help to unlock many secrets, problems and issue in their waking life."

Did you know that 70 per cent of females and 65 per cent of males have reoccurring dreams, which signal thattheir inner self is trying to say something? These dreams continually repeat until dreamers get the message.When they don't get the message through a dream, they can eventually elevate into a repeated nightmare until thedreamer gets the message. Wouldn't you love to be able to solve dream dilemmas quickly and easily? Well, nowyou can!

The book is designed to inform the reader that they can use their dreams and nightmares to learn more about theirlives, themselves and how dreams can be a powerful tool to unlocking their sub conscious. From healing to discovering the hidden meaning of your past and future, Dream Talk gives the readers the ability to take their fateinto their own hands by analyzing their dreams and incorporating their messages into their waking lives.

You know, there's a lot of wisdom in not being smartenough to know you "can't" do something.

I want you to write down all the goals and desires youhonestly feel you can accomplish. These are usually thethings you would like to do, places you would like to go,or people you would like to meet. These will be the onesyou talk to your friends and acquaintances about. Maybeit's taking a trip to another country. Maybe it's getting inshape and losing those ten pounds. Maybe it's a financialgoal; for instance, paying off your mortgage. Place eachof these items on a list labeled "I Can".

Now take a second piece of paper with the words "I can't"at the top. This is where your dreams go. "Wait a minute!"you may say. I have already done that on my other list.May I offer to you that you did not. You see, dreams aren'tdreams if they are "possible". Dreams are not somethingthat you do. Dreams are something that you are. Thedreams I am talking about are the ones that you do nottell everyone else in the coffee room at work. They arenot the ones that embody the pictures of far off exoticplaces you would love to go that adorn your office walls.

These dreams are the ones you tell no one about, sometimes not even yourself. These are the ones thatcreep into your mind when you aren't paying attention.They are the ones you are almost afraid to contemplatebecause, as you allow the images to manifest in yourmind, you know deep down that they will always be nothing more than dreams. They will be fanciful visionsthat will never come to pass so you bury them deep inyour sub conscious, frankly because it's safer that way. .

Let me tell you something about dreams. For some,dreams are the stuff of which movies are created andbooks are written and plays are inspired and performed.May I, with as much respect as I can muster, say to youthat while that is a lovely vision it is simply not fact.Dreams are nothing more than foreshadowing of a futurethat could be. Even more than being a possibility theycan manifest into probability and even inevitability.

The only spark these dreams require from you is simplyan act of faith. A choice. Nothing more. Nothing less. Achoice. But before you act, know this. The act of choosingis the spark that ignites the infinite power source locked inthe realms of the universe simply waiting to be unleashed.

Your choice is the act that lights the fires of creation thatwill literally begin to re-shape all of eternity around you.So, you say "What! The entire universe reshapes itself! Just for me? I am not anyone special. The whole world

doesn't revolve around me! "

Yes you are someone special. Many people will try,through their outward behaviors, to create a world thatrevolves around them so they may feel powerful and safe.That isn't a bad thing. It's just that sometimes we goabout it the wrong way. Choose inside first. Rather thantry and reshape your surroundings with your ownstrength, why not simply release your dreams to the universe and choose to believe you are as wonderful asyou think (or hope) you are. Many times we confuse thiswith arrogance or self-centeredness. When we try andreshape our external surroundings, that's exactly what itis. We try to create an external environment that willcause us to feel a certain way inside.

There's nothing wrong with this approach. We just have itbackwards. Choose whom you are inside. Take yourdreams out of the closet and unwrap them from the colorful glitter paper and ribbons you've used to hide themaway for so long. Look at them and say, "I am that".Those of you who have watched the Moses Code moviewill understand the power in those words.

Actively begin to look, and search for, external evidenceto confirm your statement of belief. Don't try and createevidence, simply watch for it. The evidence will be there.It may not be in the form of lightening from a clear bluesky but it will be there. It may be in a passing billboard, ora song on the radio, or the chance words of an acquaintance. It is simply the universe's way of saying "Iam here".

When we start to see the extraordinary in the ordinary, theordinary becomes extraordinary.

It's time to remember who you are and act upon it.

There is a wonder and awe in how the Universe works. Theresponses I received from the changes that were made in thelast issue of The Violet Ray were amazing and really touchedmy heart. I remember going to my mailbox one day and when Igot to the car, as usual, I opened my mail. As I read the lettersent from this wonderful lady named Lynn, tears trickled downmy face. They were not tears of sadness but rather tears of joyand gratitude. Lynn's letter of kind words and encouragementreally made me appreciate "What I Do!" Thank You Lynn!

It seems evident that the Universe sends their earth angels toprovide validation and illumination. Many people haveapproached me over the last 2 months and, through their kindness, have had an effect on the evolution of the magazine.Some people, such as Sharyn and Nadine, started out asclients and now have become friends whom I talk with on aregular basis. Helen came on board in the last issue to assistwith proof reading and editing the articles. I am truly grateful toeverybody who has stepped in to assist in transforming TheViolet Ray Magazine. Thank you!

My journey with The Violet Ray Magazine has been similar towhat Michael Neill describes as Effortless Success. Because Iam in my joy my work seems effortless. From the people whohave entered my life to the countless letters of encouragementand positive feedback I have received, it is as if things areunfolding by design. Which brings me to how grateful I am thatI had the opportunity to interview Michael Neill. In speakingwith Michael, immediately you feel his genuine interest in helping people. You hear the enthusiasm and passion in everything he says and recognize the wisdom in his words.

One of comments that Michael made in the interview that reallyresonated with me was, "The amount of money you make is areflection of the value you can create in the world, not the valuethat you have in the world". Often times we mistake our selfworth with our net worth and Michael clearly pointed out thatthis simply is not true. The insights and "Aha" moments Igained in my 25-minute interview with Michael Neill was amazing and I am sure that in reading the article you, too, willgain some newfound knowledge and insight.

On another topic, I am pleased to announce that The VioletRay has a new website! We can now be found in print and on-line at www.thevioletray.ca. The Violet Ray Magazine on-line features interactive columns such as Ask Dr. Evers andWhat's Above - With Kim Dennis, where you can submit yourquestions on affirmations or the afterlife. Perhaps you have astory of inspiration that you would like to submit for the SoulTickler column. Each issue will have featured articles listed on-line as well as in print, enabling the contributors to sharetheir wisdom and inspiration with even more people! Also,there are opportunities to locate a natural health, holistic,

"Serendipity. Look for something, find something else, and realize that what

you've found is more suited to yourneeds than what you thought you

were looking for."- Lawrence Block -

This issue is jam packed with inspiring articles on spirituality,self-improvement and manifesting our dreams.

A few highlights you might find insightful and inspiring are:

"What's Above - With Kim Dennis" where Kim provides comforting answers to common questions she has receivedabout the afterlife.

"The Connection to Living Orbs" where Sharyn LeMasuriershares some insights about "these highly evolved energiesthat are guiding, assisting and celebrating our lives with us".

Irene Martina helps us understand how "you could makeintuition work for you for goal setting, connecting with guidesand improving your life".

Dr. Evers shares some more helpful tips on manifesting yourdreams through affirmations, while Joette Lees gives ussome tips about financial flow in "Balancing Prosperity andSpiritual Connection".

Abrah Arneson's "The Path of The Medicine Maker" takes uson a journey of "profound exploration of the interconnectionof life".

In Aly Seymour's "Animals Have The Right Priorities" we gaina new appreciation for animals and the roles they play in ourlives.

I hope you enjoy this issue of The Violet Ray. Once again itwas a learning experience for me, which is always welcomedin my world. Until the next issue…

With Love & Light,

Carol

Dear Dr. Evers

Today we hear so much about manifesting our dreamsand I still am not sure exactly how to do this process. Is ita difficult procedure? I require at least an extra $2,000each month. Would this process work for me? I am desperately in need of money to pay my bills, especiallysince my divorce. It is interesting how life works, isn't it?One of my employees brought the Violet Ray Magazineinto our office and I picked it up and started reading anddiscovered your Ask Dr. Evers section. Many thanks.

~ Ralph, Office Manager Calgary, AB ~

Dear Ralph:

Thank you so much for your email, and, yes, I totallyagree with you that things have a way of happening andappearing when we need them most. The AffirmationManifestation Process that I teach is very simple, easy,effective and proven. When followed correctly, I KNOW itwill work for your request. It is as follows:

STEP ONE - Forgiveness - Heals even the deepest ofwounds

The first and most important step is to forgive yourself forany negative decisions you may have made connected tomaking money, spending money, any investments that didnot work, missed opportunities, etc. Forgiveness is verypowerful.

Also, Ralph, when making the statement that you are indesperate need of money, you are doing a negativeAffirmation. So, let's change that to a positive one andtake us to Step Two.

STEP TWO - Ask (Believing it Will Manifest AsAffirmed)

Now is it time to do your Money Affirmation. It is time toask for what you want, being very specific. This is yourMaster Money Affirmation. I would suggest you write it asfollows:

June / July 2008 The Violet Ray Page 6

ASK Dr. Evers- The Affirmation Doctor

By Dr. Anne Marie Evers

Ask Dr. Evers will be a regular feature in The Violet Ray. Sendyour questions and emails to:[email protected]

Even if your question does notappear here, Dr. Evers willanswer each one in the order in which it is received.

Money Master Affirmation

"I, Ralph, deserve, and now have, an extra $2,000 ormore, net, monthly coming into my life, for which I am thankful. I am happy, relaxed and peaceful. I use this extra money wisely to the good of all parties concerned.Thank you, thank you, thank you."

I fully accept

Signed _____________________Dated ______________________

STEP THREE - Increase Your Belief System

To increase and develop your belief system within, picturein your mind's eye a picture of money actually coming intoyour life and see it arriving in avalanches of abundance. Iwould suggest that you take some paper money, or writethe amounts in felt pen on pieces of paper, and placethem strategically throughout your home where you caneasily read them. This gives your subconscious mindsomething upon which to focus.

Bring in your five senses

See - A picture in your mind of having that extra money.Hear - Yourself telling others how excited you are abouthaving that extra $2,000 net per month.Smell - The newness of the money.Feel - Feel the crisp one hundred dollar bills betweenyour fingers. Taste - Either take a drink of clear, sparkling water orvisualize biting into a juicy apple. Now you have completed the 5 senses.

STEP FOUR - Act As If

Act as if you already have what you are affirming. In yourcase, this is an additional $2,000 net per month. Get thefeeling that it is already completed and you actually haveit.

Using the Tiny Speck Process

Visualize in vivid colour the money you are receiving. Theinstant you visualize in vivid colour the end result of yourAffirmation, the energy and power of your visualization willtake the form of a tiny speck in your consciousness. It is

your choice whether to leave it where it is, as it is, or togive it life to grow. Faith is the power and life force thatfertilizes it.

STEP FIVE - Receive & Live in An Attitude ofGratitude

Be open and ready and willing to receive what you areaffirming. Once you have started that huge snowballrolling down the hill, you cannot stop it. Think about howthis money will change your life. Totally accept your manifestation as affirmed, giving thanks to God/Creator,Universal Mind, Higher Self or whomever you believe in. Itis important to live in an attitude of gratitude, being thankful and focusing on all the good in your life and NOTthe negative.

Then say, "Thank you, thank you, thank you," for themanifestation of your Affirmation. It is very powerful togive thanks BEFORE you have received your good.When you do this, you obligate the planet for more andopen the floodgates of heaven for more blessings.

Enjoy the manifestation of your Completed Affirmation!

Dear Dr. Evers

I am very concerned about the state of the world andsometimes I become depressed and don't even want tobe here. What can I do to help change negative conditions? Many of my friends feel the same way.

It is Saturday morning. The sun has begun to warm theday. Into the garden I saunter, barefoot, wearing my oldstraw hat, carrying a basket. Skullcap is in flower. Iadmire Skullcap's steady square stem. Her stem identifiesher family, the mints. I reflect on the fact that squares areconsidered the most stable geometric shape. Perhaps herstem reflects the gifts Skullcap offers to others. She bringsa quiet peaceful mind or, in other words, mental stability.

I ask Skullcap if she would like to become medicine today.Perhaps she will, perhaps she will not. In either case, Iproceed as she requests. Leaving the largest plants fornext year's seed, I gently harvest her stems, leaves andflowers and place them in my basket. I leave behind asmall shiny stone.

Inside, I take Skullcap to my apothecary, garble (whichmeans discarding brown leaves) and mix her up in awater and alcohol solution. This is the beginning of apotent, fresh herb tincture. All the while, I ask Skullcap toquiet our busy minds and express gratitude for her gifts. In two weeks, I will strain the liquid and bottle it as atincture. Then Skullcap's medicine will bring calmness tomany.

I once read a story about an anthropologist who wasstudying medicine making with a Native Herbalist. Oncethe herbs had been boiled, the anthropologist said, "Nowit is medicine." The herbalist said, "No, it is not yet medicine. We have to put the healing spirit in it."

In our modern world, medicine making takes place mostlyin laboratories, far from our homes, gardens, woods andmeadows. This is a relatively new phenomenon. Lessthan a hundred years ago, recipes for healing salves,cough syrups, tinctures and teas were passed down fromgeneration to generation. These recipes were relied uponand they worked.

Making medicine opens one to the perpetualabundance of nature and renews one's connection with earth's natural beauty.Medicine making is a path to our ancestorsand is a profound exploration of the interconnection of life.

There will forever be a debate on whether alternative health is right or wrong. Just do what worksand what makes you feel healthy and happy. There aremany different options available to us.

Colon Hydrotherapy, or Colonics, is not for everyoneout there. But we have all been in situations where wecannot "go"- whether we are too busy, it is inconvenient(in the middle of a teaching lesson, business meeting orputting for par), or you are the type of person (there arelots out there…you know who you are!) who just will andcannot "go" unless they are in the comfort of their ownbathroom. Imagine a lasagna pan caked with food - itneeds to be soaked in water overnight for it to comeclean. Colon hydrotherapy accomplishes the same easeof cleansing on the inside of one's bowel.

Most people brush their teeth every morning and everynight and get their yearly cleaning at the dentist. Just likeour teeth, our colon (large intestine) has a build up of itsown type of 'plaque', but we just expect it to function properly on its own. If your teeth do not get proper maintenance, what happens? Cavities! Well, what do yousuppose happens if you have been neglecting your colon?The walls get coated with plaque over time and it is harder for your muscles (peristalsis) to push the fecesalong. This may result in problems, including: constipation, IBS, pockets of the colon becoming blockedand starting to droop, etc.

If your stool is not well formed (in the shape of your colon)and thick (approx. 2 inches), then it is most definitelypassing through a wall impacted with "plaque". You cantell what kind of shape your intestines are in by observingyour stool! We all need to be more aware of what we arepassing and that doing the dirty "#2" should not be sotaboo. After all, you need to eat to survive and eatingeventually leads to elimination.

A build up of waste from either "holding it" in or being constipated, results in a permanent increase in the size ofthe colon. A few obvious signs that you have a distended

colon are weight gain (or the inability to lose any unwanted weight) in the form of a "gut". Exercising (eventhough it is very good!) will not get rid of the gut completely as it is internal, not external. Having lowerback and/or hip pain is also related to a distended bowel.If you have ever had an x-ray of your colon, it can showhow distended/misshapen a bowel can get so functioningproperly is out of the question. When the colon is not atease 'dis-ease' can occur. I believe (along with manyother naturopaths) that many diseases are caused bysluggish colons overwhelmed with toxic waste and thatmany diseases can be prevented by eating properly,keeping hydrated, reducing stress, exercising and cleansing - an overall taking care of your body - insideand out. Prevention is key to good health as is not justdealing with symptoms by masking them, but by findingout what the actual cause of the problem is and "cleaningup" your act!

If you do not have a healthy body, where else are yougoing to live?

RRiigghhtt PPrriioorriittiieess

By Aly Seymour

We completed lambing at the end of March. Every year isdifferent, and this year we had the smallest and largestlambs born I've ever seen! The little guy I named "Nano",and although he needed some early TLC, being the secondof four, he is doing fine and holding his own with his bigbrothers. The large lamb was an only child and continuesto grow exponentially!

I reckoned it was too early to consider much garden-wise(smart thinking this year!) so I offered my services as acensus enumerator. It was a great excuse to get out andcheck other people's yards, but what it really provided mewith was a snap-shot of rural pets.

Most farms and acreages have a dog, at least. To theunwary or unwilling they offer a number one line of security. Sometimes the smaller dogs are the more vocaland "can't be had", but more often than not they arepleased to see a visitor to the property once they establishyou are not a threat. They bounce around with great enthusiasm sniffing for the healthy doggie treats in the car.Then they check the message centre - all four tires have tobe investigated and messages passed on. Interestinglyenough, if there were cats around, too, they would comeand check the tires. With several pats on the head and areassurance that I wasn't there for the wrong reasons, theywould plonk themselves down and continue to watch whatI was doing. On a repeat call to the house they would recognize the vehicle right away and not bother to bark.

We rely on animals in our daily lives even if they don't actually live in our house. Think of dogs trained for thedeaf, the blind, the epileptics, the autistics, as well as policedogs, search and rescue dogs and drug-sniffer dogs. Moreand more uses for this wonderful animal are found everyyear. It's not only that they have these wonderfully skilfulnoses, but they also have a much simpler and morerelaxed way of looking at life. They don't harbour resentment about what you did or didn't do. They don'twant to go back to the good old days. They don't worryabout money, taxes or possessions. All they need isrespect, affection, food and water and if we are responsiblecaregivers to our pets that is what they get. In return youget a lifetime of total devotion.

As we have sadly seen over the last year some people

have no respect for animals, but our penalties for causingunnecessary suffering don't seem to be a sufficient deterrent.

In the U.K., people found guilty of an animal offense canface a 6-month jail sentence and a fine of up to $40,000 -a significant financial penalty that makes it a wiser decisionto care properly for our pets, be they farm animals or housepets. And proper care means adequate shelter, water andappropriate food. Some appreciation for the job they all dodoesn't go amiss. Animals are just like us - only without themind games!

Does a person need to visit with a medium in orderto have contact with their deceased loved ones?~ Kathy S., Calgary, Alberta ~

Souls are always trying to let us know that they are withus, but often we miss the signs and the clues. Recurringthoughts, such as, why am I thinking of my dad all daytoday, are probably the easiest way souls try to make aconnection with us. Watch for memories with a loved onethat just pop into your mind. There can be smells. I smellmothballs whenever my grandmother is near. Really, anything that makes you stop and think of someone whois crossed over, is their giving you a little nudge to let youknow that they are close by. Keep in mind that they cansee us at any given time; we cannot see them, becauseour physical eyes cannot tap into their vibration. Ask aloved one to give you a sign that they are there, let thethought go, and before the day is over, you will receive avery clear sign that they are near and they can still hearyou.

Are people who cross over always at peace?~ Donna M, Coburg, Ontario ~

That's a great question. I can only base this answer onpersonal experience. All the souls that I have ever channelled have come through with incredible love, peaceand acceptance for where they are. If a person in thephysical world was ill, physically or mentally, broken in acar accident, or just very old-all these conditions are leftbehind with their physical body. They are completely freefrom any negativity or ill feelings. When souls cross backover, the veil is lifted and they remember everything sothere is no guesswork on the other side. They evenremember all of the past lives that the soul has hadbefore. There is no illness, no growing old and there is nowork or school. There is just a beautiful, peaceful existence where souls are taking different classes to promote their own soul's evolution.

I believe that I saw my Grandfather in my dreams last night. Is this possible?~ Ashley F, Calgary, Alberta ~

Oh yes, I am sure that you did. It is very common to haveloved ones visit us in our dreams. They are usually veryshort and quick and always pleasant. In my experience,they never manifest in a negative way, like a reoccurringdream about someone in a vehicle accident. Dream visitscan be very powerful. When you see your loved one freefrom cancer or free from the confines of a wheel chair,this can give you the reassurance that your loved one isclose by and happy, healthy and free. Souls do this tohelp facilitate our healing. It is very common to dream alot about someone soon after they have passed, so thatwe can see that they are not really gone and are as closeas a thought or a dream away.

What happens to people who commit suicide?~ Yvonne F, Toronto, Ontario ~

It has been my experience that we all come into this worldvoluntarily and we all exit voluntarily. No one goes beforehis or her time. Whether they commit suicide, die of cancer or get hit by a bus, it is always a soul's choice toleave. I have channelled many, many souls who havecrossed as a result of suicide. Every soul has alwayscome through with reassurnce to their family that theyhave found what they are looking for, which is, "innerpeace". There are a lot of theories about what happensto suicides, such as, they boomerang back, or that theyare judged or punished in some way. From my experience, these are simply not true. Rest assured thatthey are in the same wonderful and loving place as therest of your family.

TTest Yest Your Belief our Belief System With System With

Theta HealingTheta HealingBy Katherine Kubbernus

"Transform your Belief System Transform your Life"

Theta Healing is a powerful healing technique that identifies and resolves limiting and deeply held beliefs.These long held beliefs get in our way and prevent usfrom having the life we want. We block out pain from ourconscious minds, in order to survive what we feel we areunprepared to fix. All choices we make are made from ourparticular viewpoint at a particular time based around thebeliefs we hold.

Whatever we see happening in our external life is shapedby what we are experiencing within. If you believe thatbecause your mother died of kidney disease that you willalso die of kidney disease, then that becomes true foryou. If you believe that because your brother died of lungcancer that you will too, it becomes true for you.

Theta healing gives you the choice and the power tochange these beliefs. Only by removing those beliefs andreplacing them with another belief does your realitychange.

Theta healing is safe and effective and has a purity thathas to be experienced to be understood. We believe it isthe fastest healing technique available.

Remaining solidly grounded in the physical world whilebeing connected to higher levels of awareness requiresenhancement. You require money to purchase items thatassist you with your soul purpose and attend to the physical needs of your body. Some may believe that theworld is not served well when a person seeks their ownhappiness and they may be considered selfish. Stop toreflect on how you are in the world when you feel happy.Can you see how this serves? You have more vitality andare more loving and generous to others when your ownneeds are met.

Financial flow is a required energy. Some learned thoughtpatterns and contradictory beliefs, actions or words aboutfinancial flow might hinder the availability of your freeflowing funds. How could you create more abundance onall levels of your life if you changed thought patterns suchas:

a) Money does grow on trees. Some currency is made of paper!

b) Hard work reaps the greatest rewards. Do we have to work hard to be successful?

c) I can hardly wait for vacation! Daily relaxation and rejuvenation is a viable aspect of abundance.

Have you ever worked at jobs you didn't enjoy that paidwell?

Have you ever worked at inspired jobs that hardly paidanything?

It's hard to stay on purpose if you're worried about payingthe bills and it's hard to generate good income if yourwork doesn't inspire you. Many people were taught,whether in this life or a past life, concepts about financialsacrifice as part of life purpose. If you are reading this,you are not in a Holy Order with a roof over your headand meals provided in exchange for your work. You weregiven the skills to provide for yourself. You and you alone

Balancing Prosperity and Spiritual Connection continued...

must foster these gifts and work in the outside world toprovide for your needs. Believe you can attract abundantresources doing what you love.

If you're faced with financial scarcity, it can be really toughto maintain your vibration because under this stress you'lllikely reduce your awareness. When your survival andstability are threatened, these become your priority. I'mnot going to tell you the solution is to choose betweenyour higher connection and your groundedness in this life.At this time in our human evolution we need both. It ispossible to stay connected to the Life Source and begrounded at the same time. This isn't just some newfound idea - it's realistic.

Spiritually, when you feel connected, you're passionate,energized and peaceful. You are better able to focus onwork as you become more grounded simply by generatingincome.

When you are grounded and financially stable, you havemore freedom, greater productive capacity and less worryabout paying the bills.

This supports spiritual awareness because you have thecapacity to devote more time to spiritual pursuits. Thesetwo energies are naturally complementary and worktogether well.

After achieving a stable balance between connection andgroundedness, harmony flows. When you're doing whatyou love and generating plenty of income from it, a positive flow occurs. Those two sides support each other.Your purpose drives your actions, your actions drive yourresults, and your results produce income. Your incomeprovides more freedom and choice. This is powerful!

HOWEVER, "with great power comes great responsibility."

I'm sure you've heard that expression before. It is exactlywhat many people are afraid of. They fear that if theyactually succeed they will acquire additional responsibility.This creates a hesitating energy that may also repeatitself over and over again. These thoughts create resistance to income opportunities.

Helping more people increases income.

Often, simple suggestions that would increase clientele,opportunities and income for individuals, may result inresponsive excuse making, such as, "I don't have enoughmoney," or "I don't have the time," or "I am too busy". Thereal answer in their eyes is that they fear what will happenif they actually succeed. There is security in what theyare familiar with, which is making just enough to maintainthe status quo, but not enough to get ahead.

Fears need to become the wind that fills your sails.

Accept that if you do your very best and succeed, you aregoing to end up with more responsibility. This shift ofawareness becomes a "vibration match" to be able toattract and maintain success.

If you have the ability to attain greater abundance, butyou are not pursuing it, does that mean that you actuallydo not have the capacity? If you decide not to utilize yourcapacity, does it mean you are incapable? Or does itmean you are inactive?

If you spend all your time outside of your personal powerand responsibility by declining to take action, all you arereally doing is giving up your personal control. If youhave the ability, then you have the capacity, which meansyou have the responsibility as well……whether you act onit or not. Choosing not to act, DOES NOT relieve one ofresponsibility. The realization is that you can neverescape responsibility by failing to act. Responsibility is agiven.

When you accept your inner power, even if you feel likeyou are inadequate, you accept responsibility for thatpower. You may not believe you can handle what mighthappen when you do utilize your full potential, but yourealize that you must find out! Your greatest gift is to beempowered by your inner personal being.

The more you hesitate the more likely it is that busychaos and distractions unrelated to your purpose will settle around you. You have a responsibility to do whatyou came here to do, whether you do it or not. If you'regoing to be responsible, have faith that you were giventhe skills you need. Work with people to help you expressthe balance you need to manifest the abundance youdeserve!

Carol - You are conducting an Effortless Success Workshophere in Red Deer in September. What is success to you and,since everything we do requires some form of energy, howcan it be effortless?

Michael - To me success is about balancing the inner andthe outer so that you are having a wonderful experience ofgoing for, getting and having what you want. For a lot of people that is peace of mind and a nice piece of real estate.It's being happy in yourself and delighted with your life. Whatit comes down to, is finding out for yourself how you want tobe in the world, which is the inner, and then what you want tohave. The ultimate success myth is that when you get all thestuff you want, when you have as much money that youwant, when you have all the things in your life, then you willbe happy.

The reality that I have discovered, in over 20 years of working with people, is the opposite. When you start fromwell-being and start from your own innate happiness then thesuccess part is not that hard. So, in terms of everythinginvolving an expenditure of effort, I initially wanted to title theprograms "Seemingly Effortless Success" for exactly thatreason. What people always report when they begin to workwith things in the way that I teach is "It feels effortless". It'slike they are just doing what they want to be doing anyways,so there is not that sense of struggle to make things happen.

One of the metaphors that I use for succeeding is that whenyou are following the flow of your inner knowing, it is like sitting in a canoe and being guided down a river. Traditionalways of trying to succeed, effort-full success, are like putting

the canoe on your head and trying to walk somewhere onthe dry riverbed. You might still get there but you are going tobe exhausted, tired, your feet are going to hurt and gettingback in the riverbed is the last thing you are going to want todo.

Carol - You teach that happiness leads to success and clarity leads to happiness. Where does clarity come from?

Michael - Happiness leads to clarity as well. It all starts withwell-being. There is no question that the more people aregrounded in their own well-being, the easier everything flows.It's much easier to be clear when you are grounded andthere are a lot of things that I teach which also help you getclear when you are stuck. Also, from that clarity, it's very natural for you to know what the next thing to do is. You mayencounter moments when you do not know what to do butbecause you are not scared you just sit with it and then thenext thing appears.

I was talking to a client once and I remember they were following their inner guidance. This was a somewhat religious woman whom equated the inner guidance with God. She found that everything had been falling into her lap,that everything had been unfolding beautifully and she wasstarting to get really close to her goal and she heard herselfsay " Thank you God, It's Ok. I can handle it from here." And,of course, at that point, she went right back into the struggleand right back into the effort, because she suddenly felt shehad to control things. It's not something you can controlalthough you are in full command.

Interview With Michael Neill continued ...

For most people, the progression that they describe to mewhen they begin to learn the principles of effortless successis this: in the first stage, their problems just kind of go away,and it's disorienting to them at first. I'll ask them how they'redoing and they'll say "I'm fine." When I ask them what theymean by "fine", their response will be " I don't know. It's justweird. There's absolutely nothing wrong with my life." It feelslike something is missing, but what's missing is the vaguesense of background stress that most people are carryingaround with them all day long. So the first stage is reallyabout accepting that everything is OK.

The next stage I tend to describe as the "Driving Daddy'sFerrari" stage. In this stage, amazing things start to happenand people are able to suddenly realize "I can do this or Ican do that" and they are doing it. But there is also thissense that if they are not careful they are going to crash thecar. All of this is exciting but a little bit scary and they are alittle bit in wonder as to "Is this really going to work again?"

The third stage and, ultimately, the stage that I work witheveryone to get to is where you understand that it's not onlyyour Ferrari but it is also your garage.

Carol - Yes I know what you mean. Even when I bought thismagazine everything seemed to unfold amazingly. Michael,you are also conducting The Happy Millionaire Workshophere in Red Deer. What do you think are a couple of key attitudes or beliefs that apply to The Happy Millionaire?

Michael - It starts from the same place, which is recognizingthat money is not the true source of happiness or well-being.But when people first start to look at why they want money,they will often answer, "I want to feel safe" or "I want to behappy." So, the pursuit of money is caught up with the pursuit of safety and the pursuit of happiness. That makespursuing money considerably more difficult, because moneywon't give you security and money won't give you happiness.

The breakthrough for me, since I coach a lot of very highnet-worth individuals, occurred one day as I was talking to aclient with a $700 million dollar net worth. He was saying tome, "I wake up every morning and wonder if today is goingto be the day that I lose it all". I remember sitting there thinking, if $700 million dollars in the bank isn't enough tofeel secure then I am going to guess that $1 billion dollars isnot enough. And if $1 billion dollars is not enough then I amgoing to guess that $10 billion dollars is not enough. And if$10 billion dollars is not enough then I'm going to guess thatmoney can't be what gives you security.

So that started my study of people who not only had moneybut also had a sense of security and well-being even whenthe money went up or down. What I found was that therewere certain common elements that were learnable andteachable. A lot of it, again, has to do with really separatingout what you want the money for from what you think themoney will get you. If you pursue money from a place ofsecurity, if you know that you don't need the money, it's actually quite easy to make. What makes making money

difficult is thinking that you need to make money.

I know that sounds paradoxical but think about it like this - ifyou don't need the money you can ask for anything. If it's OKfor someone to say "no", there is nothing that you could possibly ask that's going to be offensive. This is because youare not saying, "Do this or you will be responsible for thestarvation of my children". You are just saying, "Hey, here iswhat I would like for you. Here is something that I can seethat would add real value to your life and make a real difference for you and I would love to do this for you. If youwould like me to do this for you, I would like you to pay methis much and if you don't want to do this, that would be finetoo. But if you do, I think it would be an extraordinary experience for both of us". If you make proposals from thisplace, you can make proposals to anyone.

Carol - Yes, because you are not living in fear or need.

Michael - Exactly, and people pick up on that. There is asaying in Hollywood, "Desperation Smells" and the areawhere most people's desperation smells is when they are trying to make money. Then there are those that flip to theother side and say, "I don't need money. I'm much too spiritual for money". That belief is bizarre to me. I can'tunderstand that concept. It's like thinking, when I have themillion dollars then I'll be happy. You need only read the latest tabloid for three months to learn about people who areblissfully, happily married and struck the big deal. The nextthing you know, tragedy strikes and they are splitting up andthe person who just made the big million was convicted of acrime. It doesn't work that way but we continue to pursue itas if it does or we drop out of the pursuit all together. Thereality is that there are things you can do in this world withmoney that you simply cannot do without it.

Carol - I agree. So many people are concerned with theirfinancial security, struggling daily just to make ends meet.They are concerned about today and they are concernedabout tomorrow. What one piece of advice can you givethem that will help them turn their struggles and worriesabout finance into victories?

Michael - I think it would be to recognize that financial security comes from only two things:

First, it comes from being grounded in your own well-being.

Every human being that I have met, and I have met peoplein very dire circumstances as well people in extraordinarilygood circumstances, has an innate health, an innate well-being and an innate wisdom that seems to have beenthere from birth even though for a lot of people it gets clouded over.

I often use the metaphor of the seminar leader who holds ahundred dollar bill up at the front of the room and asks, "Whowants it?" and everyone raises his or her hand. Then theseminar leader proceeds to spit on it, grind it under his shoe,put some mud on it and then holds up this now tattered, beatup bill in front of the class and says "Now who wants it?"

Continued on next page...

Interview With Michael Neill continued ...

Of course, slowly but surely every hand in the room gradually gets raised and that's because people recognizethat no matter what that bill has been through or no matterhow rough it looks, it still has exactly the same value it hadwhen it started out.

That is an essential thing to understand! People who are trying to get their self worth through their net worth aredoomed to fail because that is not something that goes upand down in their life. The amount of money you make is areflection of the value you can create in the world not thevalue that you have in the world. When you recognize thatyou already have all the worth, all the value, all the well-being inside you that you could ever need and all thatyou will ever have. There is a relaxation that comes with that.You realize that, "Oh, okay. I don't have to go striving to get anose. I was born with a nose. I've always had a nose. I maysometimes forget that I have a nose but I don't have tospend hours every day worrying about whether or not I'mgoing to get my nose. It's part of who I am".

So recognizing your own innate well-being is half the equation. The other half is understanding that when it comesto money, security comes from knowing that you can createit when you want it, not from having it.

For example, if it's a cold winter and we want to make a fireand my wife looks out and says, "We are getting low on firewood. Can you go out and get some more?" I mightgrumble a bit, but it's no big deal. I'll go out and get somemore and probably get a little bit more than I need to stockup a bit for the next fire. But if she says, "Hey honey, I'vebeen looking at the bank account. The bank account's a littlelow. Can you go out and get some more money?" Well, formost people it would be "Oh my Gosh, oh gosh, oh no, whatare we going to do?"

The reality is, money is just like wood…you go out and get it.The difference is you get wood by either chopping it or buying it already chopped and you get money by providingvalue for other people. But it's just as straightforward onceyou understand how it works. One of things that I will beworking very directly with people who come to the HappyMillionaire Workshop to understand is, "It's only money". It'sno more of an emotional subject than going down to theshop to buy paint. Once you understand this, you can't reallygo back to seeing it the other way easily.

Carol - Do you think our inner thoughts and inner dialoguesplay a role in our financial success?

Michael - Only 100 percent of the time! We live in these little thought bubbles or thought universes and we believethat what we are talking about in our head is really happening outside. One of the exercises I use with clients is Ihave them create a goal which in the past they would havestopped themselves from going for. It might be calling somebody, writing a sales letter or calling somebody to askfor something. Then I will have them write down everythingthe voice inside their head says to them along the way. They

might write down "You can't do this. Who do you think youare? This is ridiculous. Give up now!" Some people will writedown thirty, forty or fifty arguments they hear in their head asto why they shouldn't do it. But as long as they keep theirfeet moving, hands typing or lips moving they find that what'sgoing on in their head has nothing to do with what's going onin the world. There is some real freedom in knowing this!One of my favorite quotes is from the Zen writer Cheri Huber,who says "That voice inside your head is not the voice ofGod. It just sounds like it thinks it is."

Carol - A lot of the teachings that are going on right now arethe law of attraction and intentions which again deal with ourthoughts, controlling our thoughts, putting the intention outthere and trying to manifest things through these means. Doyou see a big crossover in these teachings in relation to theworkshops you teach?

Michael - There is a connection and there is a difference.There are three essential schools of thought when it comesto getting what you want. The mainstream school for as longas we have been around here in the West is the School ofAcquisition. This school teaches that the way that you getwhat you want is you go out and you do stuff and you get it.Sure enough the Universe will respond if you keep doingstuff, then stuff will come back to you. So it's not that it doesn't work, but it is the hard way. It is the way in which youare really exhausted at the end of it and you might think"Whew, I did it!" but you have to gear yourself up to go backout there and do it again.

Now, in the last couple of years there has been a lot writtenand said about the law of attraction. The School of Attractionteaches that what you think will create identical circumstances outside of your head. "As within, so without."The law of attraction, in my experiences in working with a lotof people over the years, works very well in the abstract andsporadically in the specific. What I mean is, there is no question that the people who are living with their well-being,who have essentially created a positive internal environmentwithin their mind, do have a much nicer experience of beingalive and good things do tend to come to them.

People who have a really toxic internal environment do tendto run into and create toxic external environments. But whenit comes to "visualize the car and the car will appear", in myexperience, about two or three out of every ten things thatthey try to manifest show up in this manner. That is not a badtrack record for "just thinking". But over time, people start toget disappointed because it doesn't work more often than itdoes. So they start to think that there is something wrongwith them or they are doing it wrong. Then they becomeexhausted trying to keep their thoughts right. Ultimately, itbecomes a fear-based way of going about things and eventhe law of attraction states that when you are holding the fearyou are going to bring in more of what you fear.

The work that I do with people takes into account the Schoolof Acquisition, which states "when you do stuff, you get stuff"and it takes into account the School of Attraction whichstates "as within, so without", but it is what I call the School

Interview With Michael Neill continued ...

of Creation. I call it this because you are not looking forsomething outside of you to give you what you want. Part ofthe creative process is getting your mind right and part of thecreative process is getting your action right. So one of thequestions that I'll often ask people is "If metaphysics and thelaw of attraction did not exist, are you doing the things thatyou would expect someone to have to do to get the resultsthat you want?" And then I'll ask them "If it has nothing to dowith your action and it is all thought, is your internal environment one that would naturally attract the kind ofthings that you want?"

When you've got that balance of the inner and the outer andyou've got that balance of the internal healthy environmentand the external action, you could very quickly create allsorts of things in your life. It is with a sense of effortlessness!That's why this whole weekend is going to be a fantasticlearning experience, because whether we are dealing specifically with money or with all the other elements of awonderful life, the same basic rules apply.

Carol - You are an inspiration to many people around theworld. What led you to what you are doing today and howdid you know it was the right path to take?

Michael - Initially, what led me to being doing what I amdoing today was my own unhappiness. I was a manicdepressive, suicidal teenager. I was looking for anything thatwould just make it not hurt so bad. Along the way I beganstudying various things. I did conventional therapies andunconventional therapies and a few things began to work forme.

One of the first things that started to work for me was NeuroLinguistic Programming (NLP), which was my first trainingand grounding. I am now one of the leading master trainersof Neuro Linguistic Programming in the world. It was only asmall part of what I did, but at the time it saved my life.

Prior to NLP, I never had experienced that much control overwhat went on in my own head. And so, that for me was thefirst thing and once I started to learn it and experience it,since I was literally somebody who had never experiencedpeace of mind, within about 3 minutes of doing my first NLPexercise I experienced real inner quiet and peace. I thought,"Wow! If that can do that for me in 3 minutes what else can Ido with it?"

I threw myself into studying it, began teaching it and begansharing it with other people. I would watch people who hadlife-long height phobias and twenty minutes later would be upon the roof of their house dancing. It was so amazing to mewhat was possible that it was just natural to want to learnmore about it and share it with other people. Along the wayI've learned a few other key things that just work. As I'velearned them I've begun to share them with other people andincorporate them into my own life. So, the way that I got herewas simply by trying to get out of misery. Over time it justbecame about following my own curiosity and about followingmy passion. I'm here now but I don't know where I'm going to

be in five years and I love that because I'm following myinner guide or my inner compass and not an outer map.

Carol - Sort of just living for today and seeing where theroad takes you tomorrow and the day after.

Michael - To a certain extent, but it's not like floating in thewind either. It's just that I don't particularly mind where ittakes me because it is a path of joy. If I wake up every morning and ask myself "what would I love to do today?" andI am able to do most of the things even if things change, theexperience is going to stay wonderful.

Carol - So how did you know you were on the right paththen?

Michael - The more alive you feel, not "frightened alive" butwonderfully alive, chances are the more on-path you are.You also know you are on-track because things are unfoldingas if by design. There is a sense of effortlessness, a senseof perfect place, a sense of perfect thing, perfect time. Thereis a sense of being guided. You are in touch with some formof higher wisdom that is looking out for you and is guidingyou. You are having fun most of the time.

Carol - What is your life mission?

Michael - I have a mission statement but I want to put acaveat around it. I call it my "mission", but I am not on amission. I'm just following my wisdom, following my path andenjoying the ride. When a lot of people talk about a life mission it's something that they set up and try to live up toevery day. It's a call to arms and it's what gets them out ofbed every morning. My life mission is not like that. Minecame from just noticing that there was a theme to my life -something that everything that mattered in my life seems tobe about. I first wrote it down in 1987 and it's just as truetoday:

To uncover the secrets of happiness, success and well-being, to live them in my own life, and to share the best ofwhat I've learned with others.

Whole Body Vibration

You may have been hearing about Whole Body Vibrationlately. It is becoming a highly publicised topic. There isplenty information out there for the public to see; however,the problem is that there is so much information that it hasbecome difficult to know what to really look for. Which platform is the best to use? What kind of training is safe?Are all machines the same? What kind of results will I get?These are the kinds of questions out there. Maybe youhave these questions yourself. So let's explore some of thefacts and concerns.

Some of the history:

Whole Body Vibration (WBV) has been around for manyyears and is backed with over 40 years of research, beingoriginally used for training and research with the SovietSpace Program. For the astronauts who spent extendedperiods of time in space and experienced significant loss inbone density and muscle tissue, research showed thatWBV training not only stopped the loss of bone density butalso actually increased it and strengthened muscle tissue.

Whole Body Vibration training can:

1. increase your muscle strength up to 50% in as little asthree weeks

2. build bone density and fight osteoporosis3. reduce your back and joint pain4. reduce stress hormones5. increase your basal metabolic rate6. improve both blood circulation and lymphatic drainage7. elevate your serotonin and norepinephrine levels for better

mood and sense of well-being8. dramatically increase your flexibility9. boost your body's natural collagen production while

decreasing the appearance of cellulite10. increase your Human Growth Hormone (HGH) output by

up to 361%11. decrease your recovery times after workouts12. boost explosive speed by up to 6% after just one session!13. elevate your testosterone and IGF-1 output

If this does not appear to be impressive, the manner andtime required to receive these gains are! Ten minutes aday on a quality lineal vibration-training platform can duplicate these same amazing results.

The basic science behind the effectiveness of vibrationtraining relies on our body's central nervous systemresponse. The CN system reacts to the plate vibrations inthe same way as an external trigger causing muscle reflexes, like tapping your knee just below the kneecap andthe leg kicks up by itself. This external force starts the

muscle spasms (Myotatic Reflex). Instead of just one contraction and your knee lifting, you are able to focus thecontraction to a specific muscle group and intensify the contractions to upwards of 50 times per second.

The controlled involuntary muscle contractions recruit thedesired muscles in the 100% range, while conventionalweight training varies in the 40-80% range. Normal musclesnot used in conventional training sessions, like the fast twitchmuscles and fight/flight muscles (they are only recruited during explosive training and emergency situations), areengaged the entire time during a training session. Trainingin the 100% muscle recruitment range dramatically cutsdown on the amount of time it takes to fatigue muscles, compared to conventional weight training.

To put things in perspective, the vibrating plate allows thebody to defy gravity for a split second and then load thedesired muscle through a hyper gravity movement, superloading the muscle with force ranging from 1.5-7 G's,depending on the machine and settings used. In one secondit is possible to achieve up to 50 contractions at the 100%range. Over a ten minute training session one person willhave performed up to 6000 muscle contractions!

Another beneficial point about WBV training is that all theexercises should be performed using static poses. With nodynamic body movement during training, risk of injury or jointpain is completely eliminated. Whereas weight training couldirritate old injuries, WBV training can rebuild joints and muscle in areas normally hard to work due to old injuries anddo so without the pain and discomfort.

Questions you should ask and things to look for beforetrying out Whole Body Vibration equipment:

1. Who is going to be training you and what is their background when it comes to WBV equipment?- At this point in time there are no standards in this industryand any certificate supplied using WBV plates is an in-house certification and worth as much as your writingyour own.- For staff training, you should look for a strong backgroundin how the human body works in relation to musculartraining.- Are you getting good instruction? As a user, you shouldnever be put in a situation where your personal safety is atrisk from performing extravagant positions or dynamic exercises.

2. What kind of WBV plates are being used?- There are only two types: lineal (up and down), or pivotal(see-saw motion).- Both serve a specific function and, when used correctly,are highly potent training tools

3. Is this the right machine for me to train on?- If you have acute back pain or other back issues such asa fused spine, pivotal WBV training could create more problems than help, whereas proper instruction on a good

Whole Body Vibration continued... lineal plate could help rebuild the muscles in these problem areas with little to no risk at all- Shop around, as most major centres now have all themajor "brands" of equipment- Search the web online for scams or equipment flaws thatcould potentially harm you

Training tips:

Stick to basic power type exercises, such as squats andpush up poses. These power type exercises will eliminateover training one specific muscle group and allow amplerecovery time.

Isolating specific muscle groups can achieve quicker resultsbut, due to the speed of the training sessions, it becomesvery difficult to know how much work you have actually doneto the muscle. Over training can set in quickly if the muscle isoverworked too often or there has not been sufficient time forthe muscles to rebound from a previous training session.

You must allow a minimum of 48 hours between training sessions. Treat WBV training just like weight training in thisrespect.

Drink plenty of water. Two litres a day is a minimum. Thiswill help your body recover more quickly and perform at optimal levels.

I wandered through my days giving as much as I possiblycould. This was I. This was who I was and who I hadalways wanted to be, heart and soul. I was determined tobe the best at who I was. Evidently, this world does notshare the same exhilaration, as I often found myselfstruggling with those that did not really care.

Unbeknownst to me, there was something going wronginside of me. At my young age, I was unaware that I waswaiting to die. As simple as this may sound, I was noteven slightly ready. Only reaching the age of forty, I hadnot begun accomplishing all that I needed to accomplish.Right in the middle of what people refer to as their 'prime',I was supposed to finish my life.

I was taken after midnight in April. It was a freezing nightand I was thankful there were people to attend to me."For the preceding week, I was feeling empty inside andnot feeling normal. I felt that something was going tooccur to change my life. That day, many people came tosee me and were either grasping my hand or giving me ahug." What I didn't know was how it really came to be,but what I do know is that I was able to live to tell you theevents.

The tightening of my chest started and I could not breathewhile the room began to fade. Next, "my throat choked upand tears spread gently down my face. As the painbecame too much and I could not breathe and I knew Iwas in trouble….but how much? Could I not possibly conquer this as I am used to doing?" The lights aroundme seemed to be transparent and my eyes could not stayopen. I was not in fear, but a feeling of peace began andcontinued. What I will always remember is the sound ofme flat lining. That was death, my death.

As I arrived, "I saw a bright and beautiful valley, full ofpassion fruit and grapes and the wind was so calm with awarm, misty air cooling my body down." I had no idea or

thoughts. I could not anticipate anyone seeing me nor methem. I felt without pain, doubt and fear. I was not concerned that I may have just died or that I was withoutanything or anyone but myself. I was alone but I did notfeel alone. I was alive in the feeling of peace and loveand I was just me.

I don't know how long I was there but what I do know isthat I didn't want to leave. I didn't want to come back. Assimple as that sounds, I had no reason to go back to theold me. All I remember, or not remember without thought,was that I was free. I was free to not feel anything negative or grief for me or anyone else that was feelingpain or loss from my absence. In addition, no longer did Ihate, feel jealousy or need anything of materialisticmeans.

"My dad I remember so vividly with his smile and hisstrong hold embracing me. I realized I was in paradise or,as I say, 'my visit'." During my 'visit', I also saw my uncle,school friend and other family and friends. We sat for awhile, as I was unable to recollect the time, and weenjoyed a luncheon or dinner made in my honour.

The atmosphere was one that I can only explain from pictures and tourist attractions here. The trees and flowers were as elegant as a new birth. The colors asvibrant as no artist's brush here. The tables were whitewith purity and cleanliness. But what was the most evident was that I was with love and acceptance, something I have never truly felt before.

No one had a discomforting word or odd glare. Thesewere friends and family of mine that wanted to be there'just for me'. They were there to celebrate my joiningthem. How simple, but more obvious was that I was notrejected. I was able to sit, talk, and feel as one withmyself because I was without criticism, conflict or hate.

I remember a familiar face greeting me and this is where Ihad to choose. She held her hand out to me and

somehow I knew that she was a High Priestess there toguide me back. I was, at first, reluctant but then I reachedout and clutched her hand and knew I did not want to letgo. I knew then that I had something to do, somethingthat no one else could accomplish but me. I had a newjourney, and a new destiny, but what is more, a new life.This was all waiting for me.

I returned to a hospital team of eight working around theclock to mend me. The doctors have placed me on the listof 'miracles'. There is no damage in my heart. The valvesand surrounding tissue are without damage and there isno scarring. The medical professionals do not know whatto make of me. But I do. I know that I have a new purpose, a new reason to be here and, with my heart, Iam now able to accomplish it.

Daniel would like people to know that anyone can chooseto make a difference.

True healing is the healing of the soul.

We have one who watches over us and that one is our ownHigher Self. The Higher Self is the part of us that is madein the image of God the Source. It is the I AM Presence,our individual part of the Great I AM, the I AM THAT I AM,the name of God that was given to Moses. Our I AMPresence is in a state of perpetual perfection. It radiatesthe colours of the human aura from the centre of pure whiteLight.

Because mankind fell in consciousness from knowing ourselves as the perfection of the I AM Presence, webecame subject to illness, depression and decay. The levelof Light consciousness, which connects us to our HigherSelf, is the Christ, our own Holy Christ Self, which is part ofthe Cosmic Christ, for we are all one in the Light.

In the beginning, when the fiat, "Let there be Light!" wentforth, radiant beams emanated from the Elohim. Theseseven original aspects of God brought forth the sevencolours we know as the colours of the human aura - white,yellow, pink, violet, purple, green and blue. These coloursare actually spheres that surround us, with white in the centre to blue around the periphery. Each ray of Light hasqualities unique to that ray although they blend and work

together to become white Light once again. This is one ofthe mysteries of Life.

The Light rays emanate from our bodies through sevenenergy centres called chakras, a Sanskrit word meaning"wheel", for they spin. They look like beautiful flowers,each chakra with its own number of petals. If they are spinning slowly, the result may be illness.

The green ray is the ray of truth, science and healing. Thetruth that sets us free is the knowledge of how this worksand the ability to use it. When we talk of holistic health weare talking about becoming whole, which is the meaning oftrue healing. In order to be healed, to be made whole, weneed to understand where disease originates. Dis-ease isa condition that is not perfect. It may manifest as physicalor mental but to get to the cause we need to think aboutthe soul.

The soul is our solar awareness, the awareness within thatwe are a part of God. The soul has dropped to the level ofthe seat-of-the-soul chakra, mid-way between the solarplexus and the base of the spine chakra. It is oftenreferred to as the inner child.

We are not alone. We have angels and higher beings thatare ready and willing to help. Each ray has an Archangeland an Ascended Master. Angels are emissaries of Godwho love to respond to our calls. Ascended Masters arethose who have been on the earth as we are but havemastered their energies and have ascended back to theheart of their own I AM Presence, as we can do some day.They are invisible to us because their energy spins at thespeed of light.

Archangel Raphael, whose divine compliment is Mary, themother of Jesus, serves on the green ray, which is alsoknown as the fifth ray. He has given us a healing thoughtform that we can visualize wherever healing is needed,whether in a body or in troubled places around the earth.The green ray consists of three concentric rings of white inthe centre, sapphire blue and then emerald green on theoutside. It has been said that without vision the people willperish, for vision is essential to all healing and spiritualwork.

Ascended Master Hilarion, the master, or lord, of the fifthray, had been Saint Paul who was blinded by the Light ofJesus Christ for his persecutions of the early Christians.When he saw the true Light he was healed spiritually.

We can call to Archangel Raphael or Ascended MasterHilarion by beginning with, "In the name of my Mighty I AMPresence and Holy Christ Self…" When we begin a call inthis way, we are calling forth the Light from the highestoctaves and in the true chain of hierarchy from the SourceMary may also be called upon and has given a new agerosary.

The green ray and the violet ray work together. The violetray is the ray of transmutation that we may use to

transmute our negative energies into positive energies. Wehave been misusing our God-given energies for so longthat dark substance has formed in our bodies and mindsthat need to be cleared. Often this may be seen in thehuman aura as gray that covers up the beautiful colours.We talk about karma, the law of cause and effect, and theneed to overcome past negative karma. A simple mantra of"I AM a being of violet fire, I AM the Purity God desires"repeated over and over to a rhythm while visualizing violetLight, like flames up and around the body, can free up thechakras and get them spinning while clearing the negativeenergy.

Visualization and prayer calls may contribute to healing.We can visualize a health problem and make a call for theviolet flame to bring about healing. Archangel Zadkiel isthe archangel of the violet ray, which is the seventh ray.The Ascended Master Saint Germain, Lord of the SeventhRay, has received a dispensation from the Lords of Karmato give us the violet ray from his heart. When we call in thename of our I AM Presence and Holy Christ Self, we canaccess this violet light which is the highest vibrating ray weexperience on this level. It is also called the "freedomflame" for it frees up negative energy. Waltz music emitsviolet flame and the three quarter time is the heartbeat ofGod. Waltzing and even square dancing can be fun waysof using the violet flame-healing ray.

Alternating green ray and violet ray decrees given by theAscended Masters is a good method for healing calls.Sometimes a person may feel the buoyant joy of the Lightenergy although sometimes it may feel a little strange asthe energies are changing. Wearing green and violetclothes brings these vibrations of light into our bodies,especially on Wednesday, the day in which the green ray isspecifically radiated to the earth, and on Saturday, the violet ray day.

We ask for each prayer call to be adjusted according to theWill of God, for the right action for an individual situationand to avoid bad karma if we call for wrong things according to our own will or opinion. Not everyone mayfeel the same and it is important to understand that thereare variables according to our personal karma and each situation. Prayer calls may be answered in many ways.Some people may not be healed physically. Some mayfeel comfort. This is not intended to be a substitute for seeing a medical professional. We do not know all the reasons for a person's illness, whether physical or mental,and each person has free will. Karma plays a large partand we all have lessons to learn. The Ascended Mastershave said that some of the people we know as saints weretaking planetary karma in their bodies but they experiencedinner joy.

We know that we need to consider diet and lifestyle forhealthy living. Pollution of air, food and chemicals in oursociety may be factors. Thoughts and feelings affect themind and emotions. Enjoying nature, looking at beautiful

flowers and artwork, reading uplifting books and watchingpositive movies are part of good health. What we look at,we become. Flowers and classical music emanate energypatterns that are of the highest source. Sound, colour andfloral fragrances are related as qualities of the light rays.We need to nourish body, mind and soul in balance.

Many people have felt the joy of the soul while makingthese calls in faith. We reap the benefits of positive karmawhen we engage in activities that are kind and helpful, fromthe love of our hearts, for the energy we put out comesback to us multiplied.

TrappedTrappedEmotionsEmotions

In Energy Healing, we deal with the Known Emotions. Whatabout the unknown emotions that, over the years, havebecome trapped in our bodies?

Have you ever wondered why you try so hard to have, beor do what makes your Heart Sing, and you seem to havea Block? Typically, it is something that you can't even discern.

What if you have Trapped Emotions that are keeping youaway from all you desire? Trapped Energy tends to be thesize of a baseball or a cantaloupe and lodges somewherein the body. It then distorts the energy field of the body andthat creates pain, discomfort, and malfunction of the organsor physical human form. So, as the trapped emotion disappears, the area of the body that the emotion wastrapped in heals.

When we deal with extreme emotions that our brain doesn'twant to deal with because it's overwhelmed, our brain protects us by storing the emotions. These trapped

emotions affect us physically by creating pain and malfunction. Once we release the trapped emotions, thephysical pain or ailment goes away.

With Muscle testing, or by using the Pendulum, you candetermine if there is trapped emotion and what that emotionis. During my detective work, I tend to ask if more detailsare needed and, interestingly, once you ask the correctquestions you can come up with a direct incident that happened years and years ago or one that is actually aninherited, trapped emotion.

As an Intuitive, I meet people daily that have what I see asthese big walls in front of their hearts. This is called theHeart Wall. Trapped emotion clusters around the heart anddevelops a wall. It has been scientifically proven that theheart is like a second brain that thinks and has a memory.It has a cellular memory energy field that is 12 feet in diameter. When you feel love or affection for someone, youare sending an electromagnetic field of energy that can bemeasured in the person you are sending the love or affection to. Everyone has had an experience of having aHeart Ache or Heart Break.

The Mind has a way of putting up a block to stop any morehurt, anxiety or pain from hurting it. The Majority of the timewe are completely unaware of emotions becoming trapped.We then carry around Emotional Baggage that has becometrapped in our bodies. According to Quantum Physics, ourBody is an Energy Field. Emotion is a vibration or frequency. When we feel or are exposed to a negativeemotion, our whole being is vibrating at that frequency anddeveloping that ball of emotion.

These Emotions are balls of energy trapped in the body.By bringing them to the surface of consciousness, you useenergy techniques to run energy on the Governing meridians and release the Trapped Emotion. There can beInherited Emotions from parents, family, past lives, or anyexperience you have had or hold. Emotions can also nestin the body. Five or six can lodge in the body in one area.Once one emotion is released then the pain will begin to letgo and lessen.

80% of people have a Heart Wall. Once you heal yourHeart Wall then you are open to having love filling yourworld and having the experience of love again in your life,with yourself and others.

This also works amazingly well with children and animals. Ihad a wonderful experience with a dog that was experiencing a suppressed immune system. Via the telephone, we discovered that the illness was caused fromtrapped emotions in the heart. The Heart Wall was over 55feet deep.

We determined the trapped emotions and began releasingthem by using EFT tapping techniques and, one by one,they let go. She had experienced terror while in utero. Agoat had kicked her mother and the puppy had experienced

the terror, which had become trapped in her Heart Wall. Inone session we reduced the Heart Wall to 20 feet.

The immediate benefits were that the dog stopped scratching her ears compulsively and refrained from lickinga wound she had had on her paw for over a year, so that itcould begin to heal.

It's also interesting to note that the body will only allow therelease of a given number of trapped emotions at one time.I believe this is to avoid a huge healing crisis the followingday. You can work with anyone anywhere in the world overthe telephone since Energy Healing is a healing that can bedone remotely.

John Lennon once wrote, " All you need is Love". It is abeautiful song. Isn't it wonderful that we now we have a toolto allow love back into our hearts to share with the World?It is one more step toward Unified Peace and Lovethroughout the World.

Lessons OOf TThe DDrum -"DDaarrkknneessss""By Nadine Gordon

It is dark, oh so dark. I am a boulder cracked in half. Life'sblood is draining, flowing from the crack into the Universe.My body is surrounded in blackness, but I can see. Whitehands appear from invisible arms. They are clawing, clawing their way upward seeking the light above. The restof me is sinking deeper into the night. I am terrified! I feelthat the end is near. I can hardly breathe. What wouldhappen if I gave up fighting and surrendered to the darkness?

It is always darkest just before dawn. I have become darkness. I am the eastern horizon, black as coal. I amhumbled by this dark experience and full of gratitude aswell. I am giving thanks for all that I have now and all that Ihave had before. Perhaps I have passed over but I sensethat something wonderful is about to come. It will emergewith the rising sun.

I feel suddenly renewed, my breath becomes even thenrealigns with the rhythm of my heart. My heart is my drum.Beating, beating, beating with the natural pulse of the earth.I can hear voices raised in song. They are melodious exultations which raise universal vibrations during everysunrise. A voice urges me to sing and laugh often in thefuture. The joy of harmony is a sharing of heightened consciousness.

The sun begins to rise and I feel the power of a new day.Fingers of silver light begin to spread over the hills.Evergreens, spruce, birch and poplars are silhouetted bygentle lavender light. A healing has begun. The sun continues to climb but lavender hues hug the earth only toblend with pale yellow, orange and white at a higher elevation. A pale blue sky highlights the unusual pastel colors of dawn.

The earth remains at rest as a white foggy haze lingers likeangels breath about the trees. The air is crisp with a sweetscent. A sense of euphoria encompasses me as I re-emerge from darkness into dawn like birth. Laughterbubbles forth from within as I realize that I had been battling against myself. I had been needing to choose anew direction or make a decision for positive future change.This is what the darkness signified. The life blood seepingfrom me as a rock was old, uncomfortable ways of being. Iwas never really in the dark after all. The color which hadbeen surrounding me was the color blue. Blue is a color ofprotection, healing and higher knowing. Subconsciously, Iknew I had been needing to make a decision, then I needed to be okay with the decision I made. My choicesare protected, but I must exercise free will. When we put

off making a decision, fight or challenge change, it forcesus into times of darkness or despair simply because it thenbecomes necessary to overcome our passive or aggressivetendencies. When we combine discernment with free willto make a decision or choice then choose to be okay withit, we emerge from a better place within, solidified and balanced in the present.

In his book, "Awareness," Anthony De Mellow said, "Someof us suffer so much that we get woken up by the harshrealities of life. Your beliefs give you a lot of security butfaith is insecurity. Being open does not mean beinggullible. Skepticism is healthy. Challenge everything, butchallenge it from an attitude of openness, not from an attitude of stubbornness, and challenge it all."

"We differ from others in what we do or don't do, not inwhat we are."

Make a decision to emerge from darkness. Remember thecolor blue. Blue tastes like raspberries. It rewards us forfacing instances which are bitter sweet. Revel in your mistakes. Learn from them then move on. Make no apologies to yourself for having made an improper choice.Those decisions are opportunities to learn about self. Howelse can we experience or gauge what feels right for us asan individual. As long as we are faced with choices, weknow that we have been granted free will. Use yours.Breathe.

Listen for your heart beat. You are alive. Live in joy,become air. Be gentle with yourself. Face your fears anddream big. Use discernment when making a choice andchoose a direction which feels good to you. Take smallsteps and enjoy the process. Think positively aboutchange. Realize that all things are possible for the sky isyour only limit.

June / July 2008 The Violet Ray Page 34

Submitted By Klaus Ferlow

On April 8, 2008, the Minister of Health, Tony Clement introduced Bill C-51 into the House of Commons (the billhas already received the first and second reading) which proposes significant changes to the current Food and DrugAct that would remove critical checks and balances fromHealth Canada and endanger your Constitutional rights to"life, liberty, and security of person (Canadian Charter ofRights and Freedom (1982), Section 7 and the Canadian Billof Rights (1960),Section 1(a).

Without immediate action from concerned citizen likeyou, this Bill will soon be law in Canada!

There is something wrong:

- With "health" legislation which allows the State to seize health products without considering whether we need the products.

- With the State making personal health decisions for us. - Health decisions are fundamental to our personal

autonomy- With the State being able to seize property without prior

Court approval, without clearly defined reasons for the seizure, without time limit, and without Court supervision

- With the State being able to trespass on our property without any recourse. Surely we can draft "health" protection legislation that does not read like a police state handbook!

How would Bill C-51 affect you?

- Many natural health products (upwards of 75%) that have been sold for decades would become unavailable, and remaining products would cost much more (Sections 13 & 18.7)

- The Minister could designate any natural health product a prescription drug, making available by prescription only(Section 15.1 (4)

- You could be fined thousands of dollars or go to jail for giving your child or friend a natural health product (Section31 & 3(3) - expanded definition of "sell")

- Researcher would lose academic freedom; they could not study the beneficial effects of natural health products without first getting the government's permission (Sections3 (6) & 18.2)

- Internationally laws that restrict access to natural health products could be made law in Canada without the approval of elected officials or any debate in the Parliament(Sections 3 (6) & 30 (7)

- To enforce this new law, inspectors could enter private property (under Section 23) and: take anything at their

discretion, never pay the owner for it, charge the

owner of the property a fee for shipping it to a securestorage unit, charge the owner of the property fees forkeeping it in storage, keep it in storage as long as thewant; and/or dispose of it at will.

URGENT CALL TO ACTION!

What can you do to protect your rights?

I phoned my 80 year old dad this morning. Dad spoke softly of when he was a young boy growing up on the farmin Saskatchewan. My Grandfather would have hired-handsfrom the neighboring First Nations Reserve work the farmland. My dad recollected, "At night, when it was aboutdusk, I remember laying in bed listening to the drums in thedistance. After working all day, the hired-hands and theirfamilies would relax around the campfire playing the drumand singing. It seemed so peaceful and relaxing and, as akid, it was a great way to fall asleep. At that time, I sureenjoyed listening to the beat of that drum."

I connected with dad, saying, "Sure, Dad. They say if youhave a heart you can play a drum, for a drum is like therhythm of a heart beat. This is how they would stay spiritually grounded and it was a nice way to communicateto those they left behind at the reserve.

With a chuckle, Dad replied, "I would like to put all theneighborhood children to bed with the sound of my playingthe drum." I interrupted and, with a smile in my voice, said,"Dad, there is a man that handles artifacts and many beautiful homemade drums a few miles from Red Deer."Then I asked dad if he would like an authentic DRUM.There was silence on the other end of the phone as I waited patiently for his reply. Hesitating, he said, "I don'tknow where I would store it."

There would be many advantages for Dad in playing adrum:

~ Comfort and joy~ Membrane in the brain strengthens~ Stronger memory ~ Meditative spiritual exercise ~ Calms the heart ~ Creates peace and relaxation~ Help others to be more grounded to Mother Earth~ Feel close to the farm he grew up on.~ A good night sleep.~ A sense of purpose helps to straighten everything out~ Sending unconditional love to all the neighborhood

children ~ Good vibrations are never ending source of Love ~ Communicating unconditional love to the Universe~ Making new friends. Birds and bunny rabbits would

come out to play

Dad always wanted to build a biplane and fly it. He neverdid. This fall, when I took my first flight lessons and ground

school, I shared my excitement and experience with dad. Itold him about my experience.

Mom, who is 75, always felt it would be fun to play in theocean. She has not. This March, I was grateful for a holiday by the Atlantic Ocean. As I enjoyed the day at thebeach, I thought of my Mom's wish.

Have you seen the movie called "The Bucket List"? It is amovie about two old codgers who are both suffering fromcancer and set off on an adventure. The 2 strangers are80 year old dying men who fulfill their bucket list in the last6 months of their life. This joyous, truthful movie will putadventure into your bucket list.

Do you have a bucket list? Balloon ride is on my bucketlist.

Dad may no longer have the interest to build a bi-plane. Itis not too late, because he could go for a ride in a bi-planeand take his first lesson.

Mom's wishing to feel the warm sand between her toesalong a warm Atlantic Ocean is only a 7 hour flight away.

It is all possible!!!

Live your life to the fullest! The challenges and adventuresbring you to a no-regrets life.

Helping others fulfill their dreams can be very rewardingand very loving act.

My father-in-law always wanted to own a Jaguar. He hadbeen very ill in hospital and, for a get well card, we boughthim a large poster of the latest model Jag. As sick as hewas, his eyes lit up.

When he was home again, we organized a surprise for his80th birthday. Before going out for the usual birthday supper, we surprised him by taking him to Jaguar dealership and, yes, he went for the ride of a lifetime, alongwith his son and grandson. On this special day, he had theJag of his choice out for a test drive. The excitement inthat car was worth its weight in gold.

What if you are the simple, practical and sensible type?Did you grow up in the thirties? Some of these steps mayhelp you to create your bucket list:

Intuition… ~ is a sixth sense and every one of us has experienced it

on some level ~ is a hunch or feeling or a deep inner knowing~ can be strengthened and exercised~ can come as your own voice in your head or that of

another~ can come gently into your thoughts or, suddenly and

without warning, it is brought into your consciousness~ works in many ways such as words, images, color,

feelings, hunches and dreams~ is knowing you know something but not knowing how

you know

Did you know that you could make intuition work for youfor goal setting, connecting with guides, and improvingyour life?

Intuition is the best resource you have to create magic inyour life. It can be subtle and powerful, but intuition willnever fail you. It can tell you what to do or what not doand it can save your life!

Let me share a personal and powerful story on intuitionwith you. It is 1969 and a new friend and I are at a hotelin Edmonton, Alberta. She is drinking pretty heavily and Iam the designated driver, sipping on pop or water. Astime passed, I got tired and told her I would like to gohome. I went to the washroom and when I came back twoyoung men were at our table, both pretty inebriated andmaking passes at her. She was giggling and lapping itup. I was tired and I just wanted to go home. I asked herif we could leave and she refused. She wanted me to staywith them and have a party.

I said "no", and she got angry and told me she would seeherself home and that I was a "party pooper". She toldme to "get lost". I headed out of the bar and went to thelobby's exit door. I put my hand on the door and a voicesaid, "don't go". I stopped and turned around, so sure Ihad heard her voice and that she would be standing theretalking to me. But I hadn't.

I went back to the lobby and sat down. I told myself to sitthere for a while and wait, give her some time and tryagain to get her to come home with me.

I waited half an hour and went back into the bar. She wasstill with the two young men, giggling and having a goodtime. She was getting pretty drunk and again they tried to

persuade me to stay with them. I had such a forebodingfeeling as I stood there desperately wanting her to leavewith me but she wasn't having any of it.

I told her I would wait in the lobby for her. She got angryand told me to "just take off", in not so polite terms.

I went back to the lobby, hesitated and again a voice said,"don't go!" None of them were in any condition to drive. Iwas getting tired and nervous and I just sat and waitedhoping the guys would leave the bar without her. I hadsuch a sense of doom come over me that I was riveted tothe spot and I knew I could not leave.

After about an hour they came out and they were in roughshape. I tried to reason with her that they were in no condition to drive. She lived in a bedroom communityoutside of Edmonton about 10 miles away from the bar.She insisted they would be safe on the country roads asthere was not much traffic at this time of night. I felt soresponsible and anxious. She had come in my car and Iwanted to drive her home.

With great sadness and fear I watched them drive awayerratically in a convertible with her sitting in the middle inthe front seat.

The next morning the news reported a tragic accident at arailroad crossing. A train had killed three young adultsinstantly.

I experienced many powerful emotions over their deathsfor a long, long time. Why was I given the intuitive voicetelling me to wait for her and yet I could not stop her? I believe that the date of our death is set in our DNA atbirth, so there was really nothing I could have done tosave her.

I knew our voice of intuition brings us messages and foreknowledge of things that could happen. We are notalways in control of what we may "see or feel". My intuition was doing its' job for me. Perhaps my intuitionwas simply telling me that I should not stay with them inthe bar or go anywhere with them. Regardless, it workedfor me and I am sure it saved my life that night.

The more you trust your intuition and listen to it, the morepowerful it will become. I have trusted my intuition since Iwas four years old.

Now, you may also be thinking, "Yes, but she is a clairvoyant, so was that intuition or her psychic abilitiesthat stepped in that night"? At this particular time in mylife I was not doing anything "psychic" in any way. Are notpsychic predictions just heightened intuitions? A psychicis someone who has developed their intuition by payingattention to it and using it.

Listen to that wonderful voice inside your head when ittells you to "turn left, "etc. It will never steer you wrong.

Intuition often comes as little signals but, when it is imperative that you get the message, that voice can makeloud commands such as it did for me that night. When wepay attention, the signs come more often and morestrongly.

Crossed-oover Loved ones -Crossed-oover Loved ones -

By: Sharyn LeMasurier

My fascination with living orbs began when I was attending the Arthur Findlay College for PsychicDevelopment in England last year. I came away with avery clear picture of a living orb. Needless to say, I knewwhat it was when I saw it in the photo but I naivelythought it had something to do with the highly spiritualenvironment I was in. I never dreamed it had anything todo with my digital camera, having the flash on, or eventhat it was possible to photograph living orbs in othermore ordinary places.

That all changed, however, when I attended Dr. MicealLedwith's lecture recently at the Body, Soul and SpiritExpo in Calgary. Dr. Ledwith has a massive collection ofliving orb photos from his research and he shared information that had me on the edge of my seat. I want toshare some of it with you.

Dr Ledwith suggests the naked human eye reacts with thebrain and recognizes what it knows as physical reality,which limits our ability to see the living orbs that are energetically around us all the time. It seems, however,that our pets may see them. Since I want to keep thissimple, and my knowledge of the light spectrum is skimpy,I will skip the detailed scientific data he presented and gostraight to the experiences I have had with orbs. My ownexperiences are all I can really speak to.

Dr Ledwith stated that the invention of the digital camerais what has made the appearance of living orbs so available in the past few years. He also stated that youmust have been using the flash to capture the image ofliving orbs, even if it is daylight.

Upon hearing that, my mind went back to the photo I hadtaken of my classmate Fleur, at Arthur Findlay College.She was doing a tarot/astrological card reading for me. Iclearly recall taking the photo because I used the flashdue to the windows in the room being quite high. Eventhough it was daytime, I wanted the photo to turn out.When I saw the orb in it later, I thought of my great grandmother, who crossed over when I was around 6 andhas been with me ever since. I also never questionedthat the energy was hers - somehow it just made sense.

After hearing Dr. Ledwith's lecture at the Calgary Expo, Ireturned home and immediately started going through myregular digital photos. Amazingly, I found several morephotos with living orbs and began to notice a similarity there. Almost every photo with living orbs was taken

when people were celebrating something. Thanksgivingat my parents' home, in a photo of my brother Neil,Christmas Eve at my son Dan and Lori Ann's when Dave and granddaughter Jessica were assembling a train setfor Matthew.

Orbs appeared at a spa day with my daughter in lawBecky, her sister and mom before Becky's wedding to myson Justin. There were orbs in the picture when Daveand I met his Channel Island relatives for the first timeand gathered for the evening meal. The sky was filledwith orbs in a shot taken from the balcony of our hotel inSpain. There were also orbs in our room. Yes, there wasjust Hubby and I, but we were celebrating our holiday inthis beautiful country. There was even an orb in the photoof our last day together in ceramics class at the Red DeerCollege when we had a potluck dinner. To view my photos, go to www.thestudiohhc.com and click on OrbPhotos.

These are all ordinary places, with ordinary people. So,here are my thoughts:

I believe that digital cameras are now allowing us to seethe energy of living spirit that, I believe, is of crossed overloved ones or highly evolved energies guiding and assisting and celebrating our lives with us. Call them SpiritGuides or Angels. Call them what you like.

As for my photo at Arthur Findlay College, I believe theenergy orb with Fleur is my great grandmother Ella.

Do celebrations draw living orbs nearer to us? How canwe know whom the orb represents? Can they communicate? We already know we are never alone andDr Ledwith has suggested that the ability for anyone tocommunicate with living orbs is possible. You may wantto go through your digital photos and see if you have anyorbs just hanging out and enjoying your celebrations.Then there are thought orbs and colored orbs…. Oh my!

I recommend Dr. Miceal Ledwith's book 'The Orb Project'if your curiosity has been piqued. Have fun!

Until next time… Namaste from Sharyn

There is a substantial amount of creative and intuitive energy that goes into each and every Soul Imprint.Starting with honing in on the clients energy, to creatingthe actual imprint, to the scanning, reading the imprint,writing / translating and finally to the minute details whichresults in the end product. The entire process takesabout 3 to 4 hours to complete.
