Wonderings & Wanderings of the Soul

An Angel is in Our Midst

I am compelled to tell you about someone I discovered that left me awestruck. Some have called her a sound healer; others think of her as a sound oracle. My own reaction is that an angel is in our midst. Her name is Mei-Lan and when you hear her you may agree that she sings with the chorus of angels. I was searching for something on You Tube. I stumbled upon or was guided, depending on your point of view, to her duet Eternal Soul with Ali Pervez Mehdi. I was blown-away. Her voice is captivating, as is his. Even using the word ‘voice’ seems wrong. Of course, the sounds were coming through her but it was clear within seconds that they originated at a level far above the physical plane. So, it is not surprising that some have dubbed her [...]

Self-Talk

Before I go too far into the topic, let me note that there may be more than one ‘voice’ that you are ‘hearing.’ Not audibly but nonetheless discernable. You can think of one voice as self-talk, a second as your higher-self and if there are others you may be detecting other higher beings assigned to you and commonly referred to as spirit guides. While we might be embarrassed or worried about admitting it, most know that there is a steady stream of ‘chatter’ that cannot be ignored. I have written about the latter two in earlier blogs, this week’s is about self-talk. To be honest, I am not certain if self-talk originates in our conscious or subconscious mind or is a chorus combining the two. But it hardly matters. What I am certain about is that our self-talk reflects the beliefs [...]

Nurturing Your Soul in the New Year

Nurturing the soul is important for our physical and emotional health and our spiritual growth and an important aspect of our soul’s plan for this lifetime. Soul plans often include lofty aspirations. And as these plans unfold, many of us become preoccupied with the excitement, frenzy or drama that unfolds. But these noble goals ambitions can soon obscure the need for us to nurture our soul. Despite the fact that most, if not all of us, yearn for this very thing. There is no better time than now to reconcile what your soul wants for your lifetime with ego-personality preoccupations, be they family, friends, romance, careers or hobbies. We often speak about self-care, make and implement plans to keep our bodies healthy and in shape, our minds sharp, and our emotions from going ‘off the rails.’ There are several practices that [...]

Peace on Earth Goodwill to People

Peace on Earth Goodwill to People          Years ago, I read a message in MS Magazine that touched me deeply. It put words to my hopes and aspirations for humankind. For years, I would pull it out of its safekeeping place and include it in my holiday cards. I never tired of the universality of its message although card recipients eventually tired of receiving additional copies each year.     I may have included it an earlier holiday blog but no time to dig in the archives to confirm. So, if you have already read it, I ask for your indulgence and hope you will be inspired once again by the message that still resonates some forty years later. “PEACE ON EARTH GOOD WILL TO PEOPLE     We wish you what we wish for ourselves – a Christmastime of thoughtfulness and rest, of assessment [...]

AWAKENED SOUL: Discoveries of Healing, Self-Love and Spiritual Growth

Several years ago, I realized that many of my clients had three important things in common. They shared a deep desire to grow spiritually, they were aware that this pursuit was encumbered by emotional residue and they had concluded that spiritual hypnotherapy was the path to resolution. I then realized that there were several emotional challenges that seemed a common variable. Soon after, the idea to write Awakened Soul was born and as of December 6, 2021 it is available! Awakened Soul moves readers to imagine what it would feel like to wake up feeling joyful, at peace and knowing without a doubt that they are loved. Using excerpted transcripts from spiritual regressions she conducted, hypnotherapist, spiritual counselor and teacher Joanne Selinske, Ph.D., relays the awe-inspiring stories of dozens who realized this dream and deepened their capacity to love themselves. In [...]

Gratitude – A Daily Experience

Thanksgiving is near, a day when most in the USA stop and pause to express gratitude. I know that for many readers gratitude is both a daily practice and experience. Like many of you, the minute I awake each morning, I am grateful for another day on this majestic earth. For me, life itself is such an incredible gift. And on top of that, there are countless other blessings. In general, my list of things to thank the SOURCE of all that is, resembles previous years with important additions. After life itself, the things that top my list include love, health, freedom, safety and Mother Gaia. I am grateful for the love that abounds in my life – family, friends, and my friend’s dog Mattie who comes over for sleepovers to fill the void created by the transition of all our [...]

Forgiveness

Do you find it hard to forgive? I liken this challenge to carrying something heavy in your backpack. Initially the weight of it is negligible. But over time, it becomes burdensome. Eventually, it may even become overwhelming. The truth is that most of the circumstances or affronts many not even be recalled by the one who offended or hurt you. That idea might give you pause. If you are a nice, considerate and caring person, you might not realize that not everyone is thoughtful. Worse yet, some folks are insensitive, self-centered, and so wrapped up in themselves that they do not even realize how rude, uncaring or thoughtless they can be. Given that, it is wise to think about forgiveness in terms of what it can do for you. We know that when something festers it tends to morph into something [...]

A Life of Service

A friend died recently and as sad as that is my heart is aching for another reason. The United States was his adopted home, far away from his place of birth, a place where left behind family would struggle for survival if not for the remittance that he would send. His life was defined by service for these loved ones – a high service indeed. His life is testament to the sacrifices millions of people around the world make for loved ones who live so far away that even occasional visits are impossible. Ty got very sick a year ago and as I prayed for his recovery, I prayed that when he got well he would decide that it was time to end his sixteen-year separation from his family. When we spoke of this later, he told me it was too [...]

Core of Your Being

I am extremely fortunate to have the second-hand benefit of my clients’ pursuit of inner peace. My role as escort and facilitator affords regular opportunities for me to journey with them through the realm of timelessness – a place of inner peace, stillness and unity. I recognize how unusual my job description is, as well as the paradox created by ability to usher others to this place of tranquility even when peace and stillness intermittently are beyond my own reach. Those pursuing the spiritual path are similarly mindful of the benefits of achieving inner peace and acutely aware of how beyond reach it might seem at any moment in time given the events in their outer life. Sometime ago, I was facilitating a spiritual regression for one of my clients. We set out with the intention of uncovering past life correlates [...]

Ctrl Alt Delete

On the computer it is easy to shut down. On my desktop, I simply press Ctrl Alt Delete and it shuts down. I muse sometimes about the challenge of having a comparable way to pause the hectic pace of life. I admit that my ability to multi-task and move fast has contributed to my productivity and success in life – managing a household, building and maintaining a garden, running a business, being a good wife, sister, aunt and friend. But after a while, it can all be exhausting. Sometimes I wonder if the source of my frustration is my desire to have it both ways, be productive while resting in inner peace. I talk to people all the time, underscoring the value of silence and stillness. An honest discussion of this aspiration includes the truth about the difficulty pausing life. I [...]
