It has long been my experience that Spirit speaks in whispers. I receive the best guidance when I am at Peace and able to 'hear' the gentle urgings of my Spiritual Helpers and my Higher Self.

When I tune out the chatter, noise and distractions around me, I am better able to tune into the highest parts of myself and the Spirit realm. My favorite part of an Akashic Records reading is near the end of the session where I silently ask what the person who has come for a reading needs to know. That communion with the Beings of the Akashic realm only takes a few seconds of linear time but it feels like an eternity of loving and peaceful interaction.

I often don't remember the words that come through me. But I do remember the feelings, and I experience an overwhelming sense of Love and Compassion for the Soul across from me.

When faced with a challenge I know I must go quietly inward and upward for the solution. Those who know me best understand my need for solitude and temporary retreat when things get shaky. They understand that I'm not running away from a problem. I'm peacefully journeying toward a solution.

If you are facing a challenge of any kind I would like to offer a few words of advice. First, get quiet. Meditate, read, take a walk in Nature to balance your emotions and your body's systems. Then, alone if possible, open yourself up to whatever Spiritual hierarchy you connect with.

You'll be amazed at the guidance you will receive. And please listen closely. Because Spirit speaks in whispers.

One of the biggest challenges of our lives is knowing when to walk away from an individual or a situation that no longer serves our Highest Good.

My innate stubbornness and determination sometimes keeps me attached to people and things long past the time I should have let go. Knowing this about myself, however, has led me to the practice of letting my Soul guide me when the Human part of me is resisting the inevitable.

I've learned that a feeling of uneasiness is an early warning system from my Soul that something isn't 'right'. If I continue beyond that point I will be given stronger and, sometimes, unpleasant nudges that my time with a person or situation must soon end.

At times I will still continue the connection until something so blatant and unpleasant transpires that I have no choice but to sever the ties that are binding me to what no longer serves me.

It's not easy to let go. We are programmed to connect with each other and to seek out groups and situations to support us and give us an opportunity to carry out our Life Mission.

Clients often ask me how they will know it's time to let go of someone or something they're connected to. I find myself telling them they'll know when there is no fear, no resentment and no anger tainting their thinking. They'll know when they've accepted that they've done everything they could to be supportive and loving and the situation hasn't improved. They'll know when they feel a sense of Peace regarding the decision to walk away.

If you are facing the decision of whether to walk away or stay I would ask that you consider if your staying is in the best interest and Highest Good of all involved.... including you.

Then you'll know whether or not to walk away.

Since St. Patrick's Day is tomorrow I thought it was a good time to share the story of how Vivian and I managed to make St. Patrick's Day quite uncomfortable for several people.

It all started innocently enough, as most of our adventures did. On one of our walks Vivian asked me how I was going to celebrate St. Patrick's Day. She knew of my Irish heritage and thought that the day would be a special one for me. I explained that I no longer celebrated the day or the Saint because the 'snakes' that St. Patrick drove out of Ireland were actually the Snake People (Druids). So many atrocities were committed in his name that I just couldn't think kindly of him or the day that celebrated him.

Vivian was appalled to learn of this Truth and vowed that she would no longer celebrate the day the way she used to and would, in fact, wear  snake jewelry on that day to honour the Druids. She also said that more people had to know the real story and we should tell everyone we encountered. I told her I would only share the story if necessary. I didn't want to force the Truth on anyone.

So, we agreed that on that day we would smile when people said Happy St. Patrick's Day and silently Bless the Druids every time it happened.

So, I was quite surprised when, at Tim Horton's, Vivian retorted to the cashier after being wished a Happy St. Patrick's Day, "This is no day to celebrate." And pointing to me, said, "She'll tell you why."

The next few minutes were quite uncomfortable as I gave the cashier the Cliff Notes version of what I knew. It felt like every ear in the very busy place was straining to hear what was being said.

As we sat down I knew I couldn't mention our past agreement because I understood Vivian was speaking from a place of Love and Honour. To her, it was our responsibility to share what we knew. In fact, I have the snake pin she wore on that day in a special place.

And the memory of how Vivian and I ruined St. Patrick's Day is a treasured one.

Yesterday afternoon I held my first private workshop dedicated to teaching an individual how to open their own Akashic Records using the Pathway Prayer process.

To say it was a success would be an understatement. Witnessing another Soul open their Records for the first time was a Sacred and humbling experience. And one I will not soon forget.

If you are interested in learning how to open your own Akashic Records I would be honored to assist you. Because the workshop is a private one it would be scheduled at a date and time convenient for you.
