Body & Spirit

When talking about living a spiritual life and walking a medicine path, I’m reminded that it’s not necessarily a gradual thing.  Some people can transition their lives gently over time and look back wondering how they got from point A to point Z, but others get confronted with aspects of it as if someone had taken a spoon and stirred up their entire life and everything is now whirling around them uncontrollably.  …Details

Akashic Focus

I see a dichotomy in how people who work with the Akashics perceive that experience.  Some see it as a means to get answers to questions they have about themselves in this life.  Which, ironically, includes learning about their past lives. …Details

Absolute Thinking Isn’t

For some reason, all evidence to the contrary, we seem to think that the way our minds make meaning out of the world at any particular moment is truth and that our mind is somehow unaffected by inputs, external or internal. …Details

I want answers/I’m not listening

Some people go to readers (tarot/astrology/mediums/Akashic/numerologists….) with an open mind just wondering what they will hear.  Or they go seeking to know what is most important to know at that particular moment rather than selecting a subject to focus on.  Then there are others that have a question, but are interested to hear what might come as the answer. …Details

Souls at Home

I’ve talked about soul groups before and you can see a general description of them here:  Soul Groups. Soul groups are a part of each reading I do for my clients because I invite any soul group members that are home at the time of the reading to come and listen in.…Details

Valuing Yourself

Self value is like a coin.  It has two sides.  Some people favor the side that shows our value is something we create within ourselves.  Some favor the side that takes input from others in order to validate who we think we are. …Details

The Way We Do Anything is the Way We Do Everything

Martha Beck points out something I was speaking about in my workshop on Saturday.  Life isn’t actually linear, it’s a spiral.  So we don’t heal and then forget an issue that is central to our life, we revisit it from different perspectives throughout our life, learning a bit more each time we do.…Details

Embodied Lives as Punishment

Living in a body is hard work.  I point this out to my clients and students often because we tend to dismiss it out of hand.  But it is the truth that as spiritual beings living an embodied experience, the body takes a great deal of effort to manage and maintain. …Details

Self Knowledge Should Come With a Warning Label

Michael J. Sandel is a professor at Harvard Law School who has delved into the moral ambiguities of political philosophy by asking the not just hard, but impossible questions which we face every day.   I was struck by something he said in one of his lectures because it is just as true of the Akashics and working with your soul book as it is of political philosophy: “It works by taking what we know from familiar, unquestioned settings and making it strange….[It] estranges us from the familiar, not by supplying new information but by inviting and provoking a new way of seeing. …Details

Do you really want to know?

People seek answers to their questions in the Akashics, which is a good thing. The Akashics has a great deal of wisdom to share.  Many times people have questions not because they don’t know the answer, but because they need verification, validation, support and acknowledgement to act on what they know. …Details
