Burned, Hung and Drowned in a Past Life

Today I went for Spiritual Response Therapy and the things the pendulum pointed out were shocking! Apparently I have been burned, hung, and drowned in many past lives. Mostly because I have a history of channeling messages from Spirit. In most instances, I was betrayed by my community and even by family. It came up at least three times in the scanning process! Can't say I was surprised. This explains my reaction when a colleague accused me of witchcraft a few months ago. He didn't say it in a nasty way but it was all I could do to keep my imagination from running in dark directions. Think I might use this as inspiration to write a story about past-life traumas.

This might also explain why I had to move across the world before I could open up to healings and readings again. It's a lot easier to experiment with this kind of thing when you're far from home and no one finds out about it. My hometown is very Catholic and I haven't told a lot of people about my new hobbies. Thankfully, my immediate family has always been supportive and they do know all about this blog. It's also just dawning on me that this past-life trauma could also be the reason for my quiet nature. I don't voice my opinions as often as I should. It's like I'm hiding my true self. 

Today's healing was interesting. It's called Spiritual Response Therapy. It's something I will need to look into. Essentially the healer used a clear quartz pendulum to scan for  past-life issues that needed healing. She had this neat little book full of diagrams and the pendulum would point out the issue that needed resolving. Her intent was to find anything that was holding me back from setting up a healing practice. I had lots of fears come up: fear of failure, fear of disappointing. I'm glad we managed to clear those and now I just need to watch my thoughts and keep them positive (or at least neutral). It was a productive session and we followed up with a great reading about my business plan. Not only am I an energy healer, but I am meant to write about healing so that others will open up to it as well! Funny because I hadn't mentioned the blog to her in much detail but it came through very strongly.

A Steaming Tea Pot

When I decided to move to London 3 years ago everyone told me I was crazy. I'd quit my job in Mexico to go travelling and when the trip was done I realised I didn't want to go home. I figured, why not move to London and look for a job? It was early 2009, the stock market had just crashed and everything we read and heard about London and New York was financial doom. I felt like I had to do it. For some reason the UK government saw fit to give me a work visa, with no job offer, and how was I going to turn down that opportunity. So I moved to London, rented a flat for 6 months and started sending out CVs. It was nerve wracking but somehow three months later I had found a job and I was working. 

At the time, I hadn't heard of Energy Healing or any of the things I like doing now. That was at least one year before I stumbled upon a class called, Could I be a Healer? Since then a lot has happened career-wise. I've been promoted to a job I really liked, and then early this year our team shuffled around and the past 6 months I've been doing a job that isn't for me. And all along in the background I've been working towards an accreditation in Energy Healing. It started out as a hobby and slowly turned into something I would really like to do as my day job. On some level I've given Energy Healing serious consideration this year because I was so unhappy with my day job. 

A couple months ago I started pushing for a change at work, and looking for opportunities outside the company as well. If all else failed, come September I could quit my job and try healings and reading instead. And writing, let's not forget writing! The more I think about it the more appealing it sounds and two weeks ago I decided to call it quits. The question was when???? "When" is the question I ask myself when I am procrastinating. Do I quit now, knowing that I have to hand in at least 3 months notice, or do I wait and quit after we're accredited? And am I  quitting because I can't stand my job, or because I want to do something else with my life? I might not be so keen if I wasn't so fed up. 

This question and these feelings have been bubbling up for months and this week the steam pot finally started whistling.  I made up my mind to call it quits on a full-time job and started thinking about how I should go about it. The move it terrifying, but rationally I don't see why I should be so scared to take a leap. Is it more or less of a risk than hopping on a plane to London and finding a job? I am convinced I was guided to move to this country and there have been plenty of signs telling me it's time to walk away from my day job. I like having the safety net but its too time consuming and it keeps me from focusing the things I want to do. 

We're told signs from Spirit come in threes (or maybe that they are confirmed in threes). The past few weeks I've card readings from three different friends and they have all spelled out "successful self-employment" as my next step. This afternoon I'm meeting one of my tutors for a coaching session on setting up a healing business. I'm pretty convinced about moving into healing but I have all of these little fears to get over. Will it be enough to pay my bills? Should I stay in London or set up shop somewhere else? I could stay in London for another year or so, but after that I think I want to go home to Mexico. Or even to the US. I need to spend a lot of time in quiet contemplation this weekend.  

As luck would have it I was finally offered a cool new day job, one that I would start in September. So now it really is down to choosing between carrying on doing what I've always been doing, or taking yet another leap in the right direction. Wish I could say I have nerves of steel but I've been a wreck all week ....

Intuitive Life Coach?

One of my classmates is a huge fan of Tony Robbins and last year she tried to get me to come along to one of his lectures. It was a joint session with Richard Branson. I couldn't make it but Branson was the main reason I wanted to go. For some reason Tony Robbins didn't ring a bell, I'd only ever seen him in Shallow Hal and I wasn't impressed!

So earlier this week I was a bit intrigued when I saw an ad online for a "Learn to be a Life Coach" class offered by Tony Robbins. Clicked on the link and it was actually pretty cool! The past few weeks I've had this intuitive feeling tell me I'm still missing a skill that I'll need for my healing and readings practice in the future. Essentially what I want to learn is how to "talk" to people about their problems without confusing or shocking them.

Telling clients exactly what I see can be a shock to their systems. I ascribe to the Socratic method, i.e. gently guide and probe with questions and let them stumble upon the answer. This is what the Tony Robbins life coaching class appears to be about, with a dose of human psychology thrown in.

So far I've only signed up for a 5 hour free teaser. Its an online class so it would be convenient, still don't know how much it costs and how long it lasts. I'll keep you posted. I think this would be a very cool skill to acquire, and it could really boost my psychic and tarot readings. The main reason I give them is to help people find their way, and I think "Intuitive Life Coaching" sounds very appealing, do you?

Decisive Moments!

It's been nearly two years since I launched this blog and enrolled in Healing School! We only have one class left this weekend and then we're practically done. What comes next: a few case studies, my last homework assignment, and a demonstration for the board. Eek! I'm so excited! Almost there! 

At the same time, I've also been drifting away from this blog and Facebook.  Not surprising as I have lots to do. Add to that my current day job which I haven't managed to kick, though hopefully that will happen soon. Hoping for a new job or a career change? That is the question ... When I get impatient I tend to pull oracle cards and there are a few messages that I've been getting often:

MAKE A DECISION AND STICK TO IT

BELIEVE IN YOURSELF 

YOU'RE A HEALER

WHAT YOU'RE ASKING FOR WILL HAPPEN VERY SOON

AND IT WILL BE WORTH WAITING FOR

This is what I'm tasked with at the moment:

Finding Guidance in the Right Places

One of my guides was a psychologist in a past life. I only found out recently, when I was pondering my future and thinking it would be good to have someone to talk to about my life. Yes I have family and friends but some things are best said to a professional. The challenge with me is that so much of my life is now influenced by my healing, readings and intuition that I'm not sure what I could say to a living psychologist without them throwing me in a straight jacket.

Yesterday for example, I had lunch with a friend and she brought along Doreen Virtue's new Angel Reading tarot cards. I told her about my misgivings with my current job, and this feeling that I want to change directions without knowing where I should go. I know where I want to go, healing and counseling, but should I play it safe for a few more years and stick with a conventional day job?

She pulled three cards for me and we were shocked at how accurate they were:

1. Don't cry over spilled milk, you're not seeing the positive in your current situation.

2. Fears about money and concern over successful self employment.

3. Enjoy the little luxuries in life. Successful self-employment.

Tada!

I was really shocked and pleasantly surprised by the cards. The past few months I've been whining about being stuck in a new job that I didn't really ask for or want. If there is a silver lining I haven't spotted it, but I better look harder. Then the next two cards really answered my question, should I put my energy into finding a day job that I like or should I focus on transitioning to healing, writing and other creative outlets in the future?

I can't imagine going to a non-psychic or spiritual shrink and telling them that this reading is getting me to consider it more seriously. Would they think I was a complete loon? I was thinking about this at the gym yesterday and suddenly I had a thought: my guide was a shrink and he is there to guide me. Ha! And at the same time, I can use his expertise in my healing sessions with clients. Not that I'd advertise myself as a counselor because I'm not, but I have often thought that the basic knowledge would come in handy. Sometimes I'll get very clear insight into a situation and its hard to steer the client in that direction (if its appropriate, a lot of times we are just meant to sit on what we sense during a healing session).

Anyhooo, if there is a qualified shrink out there who is also intuitive, and preferably in London let me know. LOL. I think I'd like to see one myself but more than that I'd like to learn to do what they do. Will have a look online for a few short courses in psychotherapy and counseling. 

In the meantime I will chat with my guide ....

When Science Meets Spirituality

I have been craving KFC all week and I keep telling myself not to get it. Today I started thinking that maybe I should just go for a bucket of crispy fried chicken, biscuits and mashed potatoes. What is driving this craving you might ask? I really think it's my inner child coming out to play. Last week we had a Soul Retrieval workshop at my healing school and I successfully re-integrated a piece of my 7 year old soul. When I was seven my favourite food in the world were the drumsticks at KFC.  I remember eating something like six pieces on one occasion. Colonel Sanders was one of my favourite people! Him and Ronald McDonalds were the coolest people on the planet. I did always wonder if Sanders had actually fought in a war or if all he did was sell chicken.  

So what is a Soul Retrieval and why did my a fragment of my soul break off? I'm not entirely sure what happened in my case, but I do have a very clear memory of me wanting to be a scientist when I was that age. I thought science, astronomy, the universe, rocks and even dirt were to interesting. Look at all of the plants that grow out of something so basic as dirt. What caused it? How did they survive? And how could we take some of those properties, put them in a beaker and make a cool potion? I don't think I'd heard of Einstein back then, but I was fascinated by cartoons of crazy scientists cooking up chemistry projects. I was also really good at science experiments and math, the nerdy straight A student that I always was. One day someone asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up, and I replied enthusiastically that I wanted to be a scientist! How amazing was that? The response took me by surprise:

"Scientists don't make enough money," he replied. "You could be a brilliant scientist and barely make it month to month." 

Ouch.

Not the best answer to give a seven year old! I remember feeling shocked and crushed that my aspiration was not good enough. What kind of jobs would pay off and would I like them? It really sucked. I'm not sure if that was the moment when I lost a little bit of myself, but I think this pressure to do the "right" thing has been with me for a long time. And who is to say what the right thing is anyway. Looking back on it I can also tell you that he was wrong. Scientists can make a lot of money, especially if they also have a good business mind which I happen to have. More than being a scientist I like to understand how things work, and that is true for science but also for energy healing. 

The memory has popped up over and over again the past 20 odd years. It has only now dawned on me that the promise of a high salary doesn't have to be one of the defining factors in my life.  I do like living in nice neighbourhoods, nice house, nice things, etc. But the abundance of the universe can come to us in unexpected ways, and following my bliss from a work point of view is sure to pay off. I think this is particularly relevant for me now that I'm contemplating my next steps with energy healing and writing. Even when I was in grad school I never anticipated staying in the corporate world for more than 10-15 years tops. Eventually I want to start my own business and I am now starting to think that it will be a healing/reading/therapy business. The exact dynamics are not yet clear to me, but I'm headed in that direction. Do energy healers make a good living? They can do. I will find a way to make it work.
