EMPATHS R US

Welcome to another empath interview in the series “Empaths R Us”!

I’m so excited to help others access a great community of empaths. Finding community is such an important part of reclaiming yourself as an empath, and all those empaths who are interviewed are so generously sharing their personal experiences with all of us.

Today’s interview is with Ronni Ann Hall, a spiritual teacher and professional intuitive empath for animals & people (and writer/designer).

Ronni Ann loves to help encourage other sensitives/empaths to embrace their gifts, and is believed to be part fairy.  Ronni Ann’s professional intuitive empath site Ronni’ s Psychic Room can be accessed here.

She loves to teach her passion for discovery and exploration of all forms of psychic communication.  She has many creative and entertaining projects including an illustrated online class, fun e-book, entertaining workshops, Comfort Cards, and an illustrated fairy deck filled with wisdom. The link to Ronni’s projects is here.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

1. Empath means “becoming one”. Empaths have the ability to become one with something (humans, animals, crystals, environment,  etc.) How would you describe the kind of empath you are?

I’d have to say animals and Nature energies (what I call Fairies), and of course, people.

2.       How would you describe your most dominant empath skill?

It’s a toss up between feeling others’ feelings, and that deep knowing of what is happening under the layers.

3.       At what age did you consciously become aware that you were more sensitive than others?

As a child, I slept-walk, had nightly visitors, left my body and “sat” on the ceiling. I had many episodes of “de-ja-vu” that I realize as an adult, were empathic feelings of picking up other’s deep feelings as information, and possibly, having premonitions. I assumed at the time that everyone did these things and that they weren’t uncommon, but I didn’t share any of this.

4.       How did this empathic ability affect your childhood?

See #3. I often embarassed my parents announcing what I knew about their guests and no one wanted to acknowledge. These observations were often discounted. My father, a psychologist, told me I was “projecting” onto others, but I was always spot on. I often had stomach flus from taking on others’ stuff around me. With friends, I simply didn’t express what I felt, but I did have an affinity with their dogs! :)

5.       How did your parents or family reaction to your hypersensitivity?

It was tough on my Mom, who was also sensitive, but who didn’t express that sensitivity. My Dad saw me as “delicate.” He was also very sensitive and closed it off. I learned from them to close down, I think, and literally didn’t cry in public until I was fourteen and the family dog died. I expressed my sensitivity and emotions through a sick stomach most of the time and tried to always be very positive and upbeat.

6.       Did you view of your empathy change as you became an adult?

Absolutely. When I took my first animal communication class, I realized my empath ability allowed me to communicate with the animals and help them. I now embrace and teach others to use their empathy as a skill. A huge change from the little girl who closed it all down.

7.       At what age did you fully realize what being an empath meant?

Around 18 I had intense panic attacks when I lived at college, a huge, crowded place. It was when my sensitivity became a huge burden. I had no tools and no knowledge of my ability. I simply overloaded all of the time. I did not see the benefits of the gift then and realized my ability to feel so much was not always a good thing :) Only after becoming a communicator and meeting other psychics did I realize being an empath was a good thing and the reason why I received so much information.

8.       What did you feel like when you realized that there were other empaths in the world?

Grateful. There was a name for it. I wasn’t flawed or had something wrong with me, in fact, my ability could help many people and animals, and there were others who truly understood and lived life at a deeper level like I did.

 

9.       How would you say this empathic ability shaped your life overall?

It’s given me great depth and information. Overall, it is a huge part of who I am.

10.   Do you consciously use your empathic skills in how you make a living?

Yes. Absolutely. I now use it for all parts of my business. I use the skill to communicate with animals and tap into what’s underneath, as well as, help people with the missing pieces of information they need. I use it to decide what colors or images to use in my artwork and what feels right in all decisions.

11.   What are the best techniques that you have found to keep your emotional boundaries intact with others?

Alone time!! It’s been crucial. I need that time to sort out what is mine and what is others and just center within me. I try to get out in Nature to refill as much as possible also.

12.   What is your favourite thing about being an empath?

Helping others and my own animals. I love the discovery process: learning, putting the puzzle pieces together, analyzing and finding big answers.

13.   What is your least favourite thing about being an empath?

Picking up on loved one’s feelings from far away and carrying it unknowingly. And, I still don’t like malls, crowded stadiums or rooms. I’ve learned tools how to deal with them, but still not my favorite places.

14.   What is your best piece of advice for other empaths?

In the past year I wrote an e-book that included all the tools I’ve learned on what helps me. That book contains all that I would want to share with another empath for survival and thriving. Perhaps they can avoid the pitfalls I’ve encountered. I also created an online class, “The Care of the Sensitive”, working with gentle, nature tools to balance your sensitivity.

15.   Do you believe there is any difference between empathic skills and intuitive/psychic skills?

For me, it’s the same thing. My empathic feeling skill is my strongest intuitive skill that I have and gives me the most information.

Thanks again to Ronni Ann!  You can access Ronni Ann’s main site here.

Enjoy the interview with him below!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Empath means “becoming one”. Empaths have the ability to become one with something (humans, animals, crystals, environment,  etc.) How would you describe the kind of empath you are?

Yes, many kinds of merging occur.  I believe we have the ability to merge with anything – if we ask and embrace the merging for a higher purpose.  I have a good balance in all the 4 primary types of empathy (emotional, mental/intellectual, spiritual & physical).    The bottom line is that I purposefully engage all of my senses when merging to better understand that with which I am merging.

How would you describe your most dominant empath skill?

As empaths, we each tend to have a dominant form of perception with our gifts.  Some empaths can “see” , others “hear,” and others “feel”, etc.
My dominant form of perceptions are twofold

First, I immediately feel another persons energy centers (chakras) in my own body and this helps me guide my spiritual counseling & coaching practice.  This is physical empathy.  The gift of having this sense is that I ultimately use it to help individuals become less constricted in their energy.  I consciously use this “data” to design meditations and energy exercises to help free blocked energy – and will lead my clients through these exercises so they can learn to do it on their own.

Second, I often will receive glimpses of the karma that the person is carrying (spiritual empathy).  Again, I use this gift for a higher purpose to help the client better understand the energies they are being asked to transmute or “clean” for humanity.  Sometimes I find that the guides I work with will vacuum the karma through me….this isn’t by my choice, it just happens.    Doing this work on a daily basis requires that I be absolutely fastidious about keeping myself clean and a “hollow tube.”  This is why I follow Native American spiritual practices such as purification lodges to clean any residual energy out of me, and of course, I encourage all empaths to find similar practices that work for them.

At what age did you consciously become aware that you were more sensitive than others?

I was 8 when I first realized that I understood people’s emotions.  I was at a party and there was a man there who was in total despair and sadness.  I went into a bedroom and cried for an hour until my parents came in and tried to console me.   I didn’t realize the term empath until much, much later, around 2003.

How did this empathic ability affect your childhood?

Well, of course, it could at times be somewhat overwhelming, especially in a dysfunctional family.  I tended to hide and run away to stay in balance.   However, the positive aspect of being empathic is that I immediately understood people, and I could instantly surmise their motivations.  This helped me to avoid trouble because I would steer clear of certain individuals.   It also helped me with gaining friends because I played the counselor role for friends very early.  It helped me to achieve in school, because I understood motivations of other people, including my teachers.   I used that knowledge of what people wanted for my ultimate benefit.  (and I would say also that came in handy when navigating through the very political waters of gaining a Ph.D!)

How did your parents or family reaction to your hypersensitivity?

For the most part, it wasn’t really dwelt upon because I don’t think my parents understood it.   I was labeled as “gifted” and so that actually made me feel a little better about myself I suppose.

Did you view of your empathy change as you became an adult?

…..Hard to answer this question since I didn’t understand the concept until I was an adult.

At what age did you fully realize what being an empath meant?

I was 31 when I fully realized that I was an empath and that I would move forward with the work that I do now (2003).

What did you feel like when you realized that there were other empaths in the world?

Relieved to know that we all deal with the same struggle of trying to remain in balance when we are being bombarded with lower vibrational energy (thoughts, feelings,etc).

How would you say this empathic ability shaped your life overall?

Huge.  It’s part of who I am and how I understand myself.

Do you consciously use your empathic skills in how you make a living?

Yes, I was trained as a counselor, and so I was using my intuitive skills before I even had words for it.  Now I train other empaths to help make sense of their gifts through intuitive counseling, spiritual counseling, and energy work & coaching.

What are the best techniques that you have found to keep your emotional boundaries intact with others?

Visualization and creation of energy.   Affirmations for myself.   Realizing that I have a choice as to how I will respond to any situation, and I do not have to engage.  Sometimes it’s necessary to say no to others to say yes to myself.

What is your favourite thing about being an empath?

Using it for a higher good.  Serving others, and all of Creation.

What is your least favourite thing about being an empath?

Feeling physical pains of others in my own body, day after day.    I’ve learned to stop fighting it, and accept it.   I believe I volunteered for it, before I was born, and I must fulfill my duty by just letting any energy flow through me and staying as clean as possible so it won’t get stuck in me.

What is your best piece of advice for other empaths?

Learn to embrace the human body.  Being grounded is essential to help alleviate suffering.  Also, embrace the shadow.   We are walkers between worlds….the worlds of heaven, and the world of Earth. That also means we can perceive, accurately, both LIGHT and DARK.    We must learn to embrace the darkness by creating a stronger amount of Light to help transmute and dissolve it.  Learning about shamanism will help you become stronger than the darkness around you.

Do you believe there is any difference between empathic skills and intuitive/psychic skills?
I don’t believe there is much difference.  The bottom line is that we ALL can PERCEIVE ENERGY. That’s all that empaths do….and that’s all that any good psychic is doing.   There are differences in how we choose to act on our abilities to perceive, but ultimately, it’s all about perceiving energy, at it’s core.

Thanks again to Dr. Michael Smith for sharing his empath experiences.  You can join Dr. Michael Smith on Facebook here.

Empaths R Us – Patti Foy

Posted on April 8, 2011 by conduitofjoy

Welcome to the first empath interview in this series of “Empaths R Are Us”! I’m so excited and thankful to have so many empaths sharing their personal experiences.  Our first empath interview is with Patti Foy, who has the wonderful site Lightspirited Being.

Patti is an empath and intuitive who works with you to help you shine authentically as “you”. She works with you to get down-to-earth, practical results, by working at the level of energy and consciousness. She uses Jyotish (Vedic astrology) and her abilities with Channelling to help you do this.

Thanks to Patti for participating. Enjoy!

Empath Interview with Patti Foy

Empath means “becoming one”. Empaths have the ability to become one with something (humans, animals, crystals, environment, etc.) How would you describe the kind of empath you are?

Hmm, I never really thought about different kinds of empaths. I usually think of empath as connecting with people but since you put it the way you did, I would have to say I can “become one” with all of the above, mostly humans, animals, and the natural environment I’m fortunate enough to live in.

Sometimes I notice its been imposed upon me, or sometimes I open to it intentionally and when I do that I can experience it even more fully.

How would you describe your most dominant empath skill?

Mostly, I pick up on others’ emotions and as empaths do, I proceed to make them mine. Or at least this is how it worked before I became more aware of the dynamics of this trait.

I also pick up on physical sensations fairly often, but only with those emotionally close to me (that I’m aware of — gosh, who knows, maybe this happens more than I know). For example, my cat and I would often have the exact same physical ailment going on at the same time (of course, animals are empathic, and for all I know my cat was processing for me!) This happens with my son, too, who lives about 1000 miles away from me.

At what age did you consciously become aware that you were more sensitive than others?

Hmmm, consciously? I’m not sure… Perhaps not until I was about 30 yrs. old.

How did this empathic ability affect your childhood?

Oh, I learned at a very young age how to shut down. I’m a fairly intellectual person to begin with but I became more exclusively that way. It didn’t take me long before I hooked into the abundantly available drugs and alcohol.

How did your parents or family reaction to your hypersensitivity?

There wasn’t much tolerance for it. They were both busy raising a family of 6 kids, and I was treated the same as my other siblings. In retrospect, a few of us were especially sensitive but you wouldn’t know it at the time. Emotions were not discussed, much less sensitivities in general. In fact, even expressing our emotions wasn’t tolerated much unless it fit into that grouping of “positive” emotions, and was restricted to polite expressions of it. (Of course, when I was out playing with other kids, anything went. I think that was my saving grace.)

If anything, I was taught to be tough and always pleasant. No wonder I so enthusiastically embraced the escape of drugs and alcohol. I didn’t know how to deal with what I felt.

Did you view of your empathy change as you became an adult?

Not until I got clean and sober at age 29. Then I thought of it primarily as an acute sensitivity. It was a challenge to learn what to do with that, and I’d have to say that very issue was the predominant lesson of my recovery.

I still didn’t know about empaths, per se.

At what age did you fully realize what being an empath meant?

I was probably in my early 30′s. During my early recovery I went to a famous psychic, Kathlyn Rhea, for a reading. It wasn’t long before I was taking classes from her. It was during that time that it hit me how much I absorb other peoples’ moods. (Probably because we used an exercise to open ourselves.)

We had just done a class, and when I got into my car to go home, I just sat there and sobbed. I knew there was nothing going on in my life to justify the feeling. Because it was so exaggerated and so strong, it became obvious that I was getting this from somewhere else.

At the next class, I asked the woman who’d been sitting next to me the week before if she’d been in an especially difficult place during the last class. I forget the details now but it turned out she had been mourning a death or major loss of some sort that had just occurred. I was kind of blown away at how blatant it all was.

A few years later, I had a past-life reading done by Marcy Calhoun (also an exceptional intuitive.) She just flat out told me I was an ultra-sensitive and that one of my main reasons for incarnating this time was to learn how to work with my empathic abilities. I finally acknowledged it was a part of my everyday life and began to give it its due.

What did you feel like when you realized that there were other empaths in the world?

Good! I would be able to learn from them.

How would you say this empathic ability shaped your life overall?

Profoundly, considering my attempt to cope with my depth of sensitivity led to addiction and recovery, both of which had a major impact on how I experience(d) life.

Now, as I open to and embrace my sensitivity, my empathic ability is something I enjoy and want to continue to develop. Now it’s very positive.

Do you consciously use your empathic skills in how you make a living?

Yes. When I first began to practice jyotish (Vedic astrology), I thought I had to keep it “pure” and did not allow my own intuitive impressions into the mix, as if they would pollute the analysis. But when I learned to channel, that just blew the lid off all my intuitive pathways, including my empathic skills. I almost can’t exclude them anymore, as if I would still want to.

So of course, I do incorporate them when I do a channeling/intuitive session, but even during jyotish readings I share what I sense now. Usually when I look at a chart I just get some “knowings”, unrelated to the astrological indicators. My clients confirm these and often the information I’m able to share around that insight is one of the more important and helpful elements of the whole reading.

What are the best techniques that you have found to keep your emotional boundaries intact with others?

Oh, wow, this could be a whole, huge article in itself. I’ll try to be brief…

In general, keeping my own energy field clear and uplifted is of utmost importance. It’s similar to how living healthfully keeps you from being susceptible to temporary environments or whatever might be going around.

Other than that, my techniques vary widely depending on who those “others” are.

- With clients, I do a deconnecting/cleansing exercise after a session, and sometimes after a simple contact. I often do an exercise to strengthen my aura before a session as well.

- With acquaintances and friends, simply being aware who I’m thinking of or in contact with and what’s going on with them allows me to keep my own space intact — for the most part. Sometimes I do a process similar to what I do with clients. I’ve gotten selective about who I become friends with, and I don’t engage with or enter friendships with energy vampires, no matter how nice or interesting they are.

- With my immediate family, physical distance (even going outside for a walk) can provide some relief. But I’m only half-joking when I say that my best bet there is to do what I can to support him/them in being happy, healthy, and whole. When that’s not working, crossing my arms over my solar plexus really does help a lot.

- With groups, well, it’s not an accident that I live in remote canyon and am essentially a hermit. I am usually able to choose if I want to be around a group. Spending a day “in town” exposed to all the disparate energies can be exhaustive. But oddly, when I make a decision to open to each individual I interact with, my experience is much more pleasant.

- With the world at large there is a constant connection whether we know it or not. When an unexplainable mood takes hold that I can’t attribute to me or the influences I already mentioned, often it’s due to what’s going on in the world. Just knowing this provides a lot of relief.

Finally, I’ve found that the flower essences walnut and yarrow work very well in any/all situations. Walnut is a Bach remedy you can find at most health food stores, and I get yarrow through Flower Essence Services.

What is your favourite thing about being an empath?

I love all aspects of being intuitive and psychic. It gives me access to a whole world of information. And especially now that I can more reliably use it at will, it enhances not only my life but I also use it to help guide others.

What is your least favourite thing about being an empath?

If I’m not paying attention, it can throw me off-track. But I think the worst is simply that it doesn’t always feel so good!

What is your best piece of advice for other empaths?

Once you know you are one, you’ve got it half licked. It does take some learning to know how to detach, etc., but it’s doable. There are lots of good resources that can help you. There are numerous books and even lots of great, free information on the web. Just use your own common sense and intuition when choosing which methods to experiment with. You’ll find what works for you.

Do you believe there is any difference between empathic skills and intuitive/psychic skills?

There aren’t always clear boundaries, especially because just about everyone has their own definition of what those terms mean.

I’m partial to the term extra-sensory perception, or ESP, because all of the skills and abilities we’re discussing fit into that description. The only problem with that term is that most people think it refers to something extraordinary that only a few people can do, instead of knowing that we all can sense beyond our bodily senses. In fact, we can’t help it!

But more to your question, I think being empathic is just a specific type of ESP or intuitive/psychic skill, in that it’s just a specialized way of making the connection with another being. I also think it has some similarities to psychometry (sensing information from touching an item) since it has such a physical/emotional element to it.

My experience is that all of these abilities overlap and work together in a beautifully synergistic relationship.

Empaths R Us – Are you the Deanna Troi on your ship?

Posted on April 3, 2011 by conduitofjoy

What was your reaction to Deanna Troi’s name and image?  I bet those of you who are empaths, and who watched TV in the late 80′s, had an immediate and positive reaction to the name and the photo of action figure above.  Deanna Troi was the character of the half-Betazoid empath and the ship’s counsellor, from Star Trek’s “Next Generation” portrayed by actor Marina Sirtis.

Why do I think empaths probably like or at least identify with Deanna Troi?  Because, as far as I know, she’s the only one of our “kind” that has really been portrayed in pop-culture for who she really is.

I still remember my own shock of self-recognition when I saw Deanna Troi’s character on TV. Even though sadly it took almost two decades since I first saw her for me to determine that empaths actually existed, and that I was in fact one, somehow instinctly, even at that time, I totally identified with her and knew that I was the same kind of being.

I knew I could pick up other people’s emotional stuff like she did.  In fact, I felt this was such an obvious thing about me, that as soon as my friends saw her empathy character and thought about me, that I would be “outed” as an empath.  I guess that was wishful thinking, because of course that never happened.

It warms the cockles of my heart to know that in the future on TV, society is open enough that empaths are not only recognized, but are applauded for using their abilities. But since we don’t live in a utopian Star Trek world yet, we still have a ways to go in recognizing empathy and how valuable a skill it is.

Empath Interviews

In the hopes of helping other empaths get an earlier start recognizing and using their empathic gifts, I’m posting a series of interviews with other empaths. Most of these empaths work using their skills in a professional capacity, using their empathy consciously to help others.

I’m hoping their personal experiences, and insights can inspire unconscious empaths, to start down the road of being able to use your gifts, and being able to love yourselves for the wonderful beings you are.

I’d love other empaths to first realize that they are in fact empaths, and secondly, that there are tools that can help them manage this gift of empathy.

What is an “empath” exactly?

I use the word “empath” in for these posts to describe emotional empathy, an ability that is also sometimes this is referred to as “clairsentience”. I am using the term “empath”, since clairsentience is very broad, and refers to many ways of intuitive “knowing”.  The term “empath” is not well defined, since of course most people don’t even know or acknowledge that it is exists.

Emotional empathy is likely the kind of empathy most people are familiar with.  (According to some empath experts there are many kinds of empathy (eg. spiritual, intellectual, physical, environmental, etc). Rose Rosetree has written several excellent books explaining these in more detail.)

Emotional empaths have the ability to constantly feel the emotions of anyone they encounter, without even trying.  This means 24/7, 365 days a year, emotional empaths feel what everyone else is feeling.

When you are an empath, you are born an empath, and you cannot change that fact about yourself.  You are always “on” unless you learn how to turn yourself “off”. Unconscious empaths are like great big emotional lint collectors, hanging out in the world unwittingly collecting everyones’ emotional lint.

As you can imagine, with the accumulation of these unbidden emotions, after awhile (about 8 hours after you’ve waken up) this starts to feels really horrible. Unless you have the awareness and some simple techniques (like spritzing with salt water) to clear others emotions which have collected on you and which you can feel in your own physical body, they end up affecting your own energetic field.

Not only do empaths pick up emotions from other people and animals, particularly any person or animal in pain, but empaths are naturally sensitive to violence or pain on TV, movies, and in the news.  Even watching, and not directly experiencing, violence and emotional drama emotionally affects empaths as if it was actually happening to them.  Since this is not “rational”, other non-empaths have a hard time understanding the impact of these things on empaths, and assume that they are exaggerating or just being dramatic.

You may have been told while you were growing up that you are “overly-sensitive”, “moody” or a “cry baby”.

How Do I Turn This Thing Off?

For many empaths, this means that they have no idea what is happening to them every day, or that they can choose any other way of being.  In fact, you are likely have always existed in some type of emotional “pain” yourself unless you have been lucky enough to have another person recognize that you are an empath and show you how to turn yourself “off”, or somehow you have figured out ways of turning yourself “off”.  If you are an unconscious empath, when you are instinctively figuring out ways to turn yourself “off”, there is a very good chance that what you come up with, is self-harming in some way.

You may figure out that if become a hermit, turn your emotions off completely, or overeat until you are 500 pounds, that you can lessen the effect of this unwanted emotion from others.  While these behaviours may offer some relief, they are obviously not healthy in any way in any kind of long-term situation.

There is hope and help!  There are simple things you can learn to do (clear others emotions, ground, reconnect with your own emotions, visualizations). You will see in the interviews that follow, there are many empaths that are using their skills consciously in their daily lives, and to help others.  Some of these empaths have developed techniques and programs to help other empaths learn to become conscious and help them achieve emotional freedom.

Empath -You Are Not The Only One!

The moment I realized there were others like me, I just wanted to cry with relief.  It was so comforting to know that there were others like me, and that there was a name for what I was. Growing up, I had always just thought (and been told) that I was an over-sensitive, overly emotional, roller coaster wreck of a emotional person.  I felt like my uncontrollable emotions ran my life, and tried everything I could to suppress them.  But nothing worked, as I didn’t know what I needed to do.

To find out that I was an empath, and that I could claim this power for myself in a conscious way, was a huge shift in how I thought about myself.  It changed the way I viewed myself and how I felt about my entire life had been, until that moment. While I always knew I was sensitive and what everyone around me was feeling, I never made the connection with how that affected my own emotions.  I never realized that those unwanted emotions affected my life so radically.  It wasn’t until I started reading some books about empathy, that I realized the extent that I had always been influenced by others emotions.

The fact that it took me so long to know who I really am, makes me eager to help others to claim this gift for themselves sooner than I did.  I’d love for other empaths to throw off the shackles of judgment that they have been experiencing for their whole lives.  I want other unconscious empaths to know that there is emotional freedom waiting for you, and healthy ways of integrating your empathy into your life successfully.

Empaths R Us, and “feeling” other people can be one of the best super-powers.

Kara

Are you a practicing conscious empath or just starting to recognize yourself? Please share your experiences in the comments.

As an empath I can feel the “real” you.  I can help you remember how to feel yourself too, email me at conduitofjoy@hotmail.com for a reading.

Total Authenticity – Manifest Your Best Life!

Posted on March 25, 2011 by conduitofjoy

For the last little while, I had been mulling over how using your intuition to guide your life, being totally authentic and manifesting, all connected to each other. I intuitively know they are connected, but I was struggling with how I could explain exactly how this worked.  I put out a request to my Higher Self to show me something that explained this…. and I just found it!

I came across Andrea Hess’s post here, which brilliantly describes how these three things (intuition, authenticity, manifesting) are connected.

It all comes down to how much care we do or don’t take with aligning vibrationally with our own authentic truth. So what the hell does that mean?

It means that the more your daily life – what you think, wear, do, eat, drink, work at, and live with every day – reflects your authentic self, the more you are in vibrational alignment with your true purpose.  The more in vibrational alignment you are, the more your life looks and feels like the one that you really want, the one you came here to live. Andrea calls this attention to all your actions “vibrational hygiene”.

Her idea is that the more you take care with every little action in your life, the big actions, like “aligning with your soul’s purpose” will be taken care of.

You already know what is really in alignment with your most authentic self.  But sometimes, you might just not be conscious of it. It is easy sometimes to drift through periods of your life on auto-pilot, making many little decisions that aren’t really good for you.  The good news is that just being conscious of your actions is the start.  And even better, when you start living your life using your intuition more, always making your best decisions becomes easier and easier.

The more you bring everything in your life in alignment with your authentic self, the easier things get.  The more you are fully yourself, the more of what you desire, comes into your life.  When all of our effort every day is devoted to being our True Selves, we live our highest purpose. The great news is, using your intuition to help you do this, also makes it ten times easier.

It is VERY important how you tend to your vibrational health, as it influences everything that comes into your life.  It is responsible for what happens to you.

The more conscious you are of what you do and say, the more authentic you become. It is a matter of being fully conscious of exactly what you are doing for and to yourself, and the thoughts you are thinking.  All your tiny decisions determine what happens with and to you.

Here’s some of the gold from Andrea’s article:

“When we align our vibrational state of Being, our Soul’s Divinity IS our thoughts, which gives rise to emotion, which moves us into action and self-expression. That sounds simplistic, I know. But why assume that creating a life of abundance and joy has to be complicated?

So where do we start? With small acts of “vibrational hygiene”!

Look around your environment. Is there anything that needs to be thrown out, rearranged, or reorganized so that your room becomes more of an expression of who you are? Do it! Stop reading for a second and just do it, right now.

As you go through your day, ask yourself: “Is this choice an expression of who I truly am?” So often, we don’t think of what we order for lunch or what we wear or what we watch on television as significant choices. But ALL of our choices either create alignment within our vibrational state, or create a misalignment. No choice is insignificant.”

Read her brilliant article and then continue making the world around you reflect your most authentic self. Please feel free to share what you did here.

Self-forgiveness – Remember to Love the Human

Posted on March 20, 2011 by conduitofjoy


Sometimes with all the emphasis on following an intuitive path and striving for spiritual maturity, we can forget the main thing that makes us deliciously human – our free will.

We are not angels or saints or robots.  Humans are distracted by egos and emotion.  Humans often screw-up and make mistakes.  In fact, it is often by making mistakes that we discover what we really do want.  Our free will gives us the opportunity to experience what we choose in our lives, and to learn from those choices.

In the past month I have had some very mundane “human” problems crop up in my own life.  These issues arose in the general categories of “relationships” and “money”.   If you are a human being over the age of 10, you may be familiar with them.  Both of these arenas usually reflect where we in relationship with the Universe and ourselves.

Now, these were not catastrophic problems that ruined my life or anything, but they were certainly opportunities for me to look at certain blindspots in my life.  They were opportunities for me to look at things I really would have rather to continue to ignore.

So how did I fix these bugaboos?  First, by admitting that I am not perfect, and that I was in fact wrong.  Then, by trying to accept that me not being perfect is okay.  In short,  self-forgiveness.

Self-blame or “How did I let this happen to me?”

While I was bewildered and angry by these situations, I was probably the most angry at myself.  My internal conversations were along the lines of “How could I have could I have let this happen?”, “How could I have been so unaware of that?”  But regardless of how aware I was or wasn’t, blaming myself did not change my situation.  I had played a part in creating these situations, and I was responsible for taking some very concrete steps to fix them.

So how did I get to the “best solutions” stage?  One can only attract the best solutions if your energy is at a high level.  Since like attracts like, in order to find the best solutions, my personal energy had to be high, and I had to be at the clearest vibration I could produce.   Being stuck down in the place of fear and anger only attracts low level solutions. So how did I start solving these problems?

I only got there by first forgiving myself.  I had to practice self-forgiveness for any decisions I made that brought me to this place where I landed.  I had to forgive myself for being  only human. All humans, aware of their intuition or not, get blindsided, particularly by their own egos.  Being a good intuitive, as well as being a decent human being, involves acknowledging your own weak spots, and actively working to be aware of them and accept them as part of who you are.  Monitoring yourself for your own “issues” is a constant process, but necessary for your success as a human (and an intuitive).

These issues in my life, forced me look at aspects of myself I could no longer avoid.  I didn’t enjoy delving into these things, but it was necessary, and time to do it. I had to forgive myself for any decisions that led me to me to that point in time. Self-forgiveness has allowed me to move on.

Allowing, Accepting and Moving On

Unearthing old ego patterns and examining old emotional wounds, shines a light on what drives our unconscious behavior. Just the act of giving these things our attention – bringing them into consciousness – allows us to free ourselves from them.

Unearthing fear and pain out of their dark places of sadness and wounding to examine them, imbues them with the light of our love – the love for ourselves. Once we have looked at them, we are released from their unconscious control over us.   Once we know why what has driven poor choices in the past, we are freed to make different choices.

Forgiving ourselves for making mistakes, based on these emotions and patterns is the final blessing in this process of self-examination. It breaks the chains of our self-punishment that keeps us bound in lower vibrations of self-loathing.

Self-forgiveness allows us to free ourselves from the past.  It allows us to look at ourselves anew, as humans with an unlimited potential to create and help others, and ourselves. Self-forgiveness is the ultimate tool of compassion for ourselves, and in the evolving of ourselves to a higher state which is our natural birthright.

You Ain’t All Purty, But You’re Lovable

Accepting those parts of ourselves that aren’t perfect is part of our ultimate self-forgiveness.  Loving those parts of ourselves that we don’t even like, is our greatest gift to ourselves.  Self-compassion and self-love are the lessons we must learn in order to love others too. Self-forgiveness is the only way that we can embrace the gift of human existence, and continue stumbling along in our lives.  Self-love opens us up to get the universal solutions that lead us back onto our best paths.

By practicing self-love and self-forgiveness we open the door for our best solutions.  By exercising gratitude for who we are, and realizing that we do fall short of perfection, we open ourselves to universal solutions to our issues.

It doesn’t matter if you’re not perfect. What matters is your willingness to learn your lessons, and to take actions to get back on your best path.  It also helps to remember that learning those lessons usually is the best and necessary path for your soul growth.

So, lighten up, love yourself and live.

Kara

Need to remember why you are so lovable? Your guides and higher self can tell you….email me at conduitofjoy@hotmail.com so I can get you in touch with these lovers of you.

Singing An Intuitive Song

Posted on March 9, 2011 by conduitofjoy

“Music is the only thing that you and God can experience in the same way.”

“The Thousand” – Kevin Guilefoile

I have long wondered about the connection between music and intuition. I have been interested in why so many professional intuitives, myself included, have hobbies or careers as musicians. I know professional intuitives that have been opera singers, choristers, lead singers for rock bands and more.

Long before I was consciously using my intuition, I sang. I sang all the time when I was by myself, as well as in lots of classical choirs, jazz combos and with rock bands. Any opportunity I could find to sing, I sang. It wasn’t something I just liked doing, I absolutely loved it. It was more like something I had to do, that I was compelled to do. It pretty much consumed my life, not in a bad way, but I just wanted to do it all the time.

I took singing lessons, and singing courses in high school, and university which I excelled at. In fact, I totally identified with singing, it became one of the ways I self-identified – Kara the Singer.

So where am I singing today? I’m not singing anymore.

Apart from the occasional duet with the radio, I’m not singing in any “serious” or consistent way today. If you would have told this to the Kara of 1987, or 1993, or even 1997, she would have laughed at the thought of herself not singing. She would have argued with you that it would be impossible to actually be Kara and not be singing. But here I am, not singing.

When I was in my late twenties, and wondered if I should keep singing, professional type way, and experimentally made a conscious decision to stop. Starting the day I stopped, a tiny whisper started in my head that just wouldn’t go away. It was bugging me day and night. It was saying “Go sing”. It bugged me all the time, every hour, and sometimes every few minutes. This made me crazy until I literally couldn’t stand it anymore, and started singing again.

A description of intuition from professional intuitive Andrea Hesse (who was formerly an opera singer!) finally made the penny drop for me. She was describing the process of your own intuition speaking to you. She says “The voice [of intuition] is persistent, but not insistent”. Now that I listen to my intuition consciously and regularly, it dawned on me that this exactly what intuition does.

Intuition is the tiny persistent whisper that just keeps suggesting something over and over again, until or unless you use your free will to actually do it. It doesn’t force you to do anything, but for those things you would benefit from, it suggests over and over again, in a very tiny, quiet voice.

It will keep bugging you until you follow the advice being offered, or persistently ignore it. It doesn’t insult you or say it in a negative way. It just says things like “Go sing” over and over again, until you actually do it or shut it down. If you do what is suggested, it is nicely silent until the next time you need it.

I finally figured out that I probably don’t sing anymore, because I consciously bring forth my intuition in my writing, and by doing intuitive readings. The intuitive connection I have now is actually the same voice, my intuitive voice. This is my same connection to God/Higher Self. I now believe that singing was my easiest and best way of unconsciously connecting with God at that time in my life. I wasn’t a fan of organized religion, but I still hungered for my connection to Source, and it was there in singing.

I loved the feeling I got when I sang. It was the feeling that I was a vessel, partly filled with me, and partly with a Higher Source. I remember being on stage singing a Baroque solo, and feeling the moment when the Higher Source came into me. I can recall the glorious feeling throughout my body when I just became a delivery system, a vessel, for that Higher being to deliver its musical message to the audience. It was my voice, but I was not the one directing it anymore. My vocal training and talent were helping it transmit, but I was really just a tool of the Divine.

The feeling I had in my body and in my soul at that time, was just pure bliss. It really was like a slice of Heaven. No wonder I always wanted to sing!! It was my all natural high, and I just wanted to feel that way all the time.

But there was a downside. Since I didn’t know how to ground or even that I needed to ground, in order to handle that kind of power surge, I often crashed after lots of singing. After a weekend of singing and being so “up”, I often became ill. Although I loved the feeling of creating music with others in choirs, I needed alone time to re-ground. It is interesting how singers instinctively know how to do things like eating to bring themselves “down” after performing. If I would have known that I needed to ground myself, and how to ground in a healthy way, my experience would have been much different.

Looking back now, in the context of the bigger picture, I think one of the reasons I loved singing so much, was that it was a great way for me to experience being in touch with the Divine. I suspect my ego and mind wasn’t ready at that time to accept being an intuitive. Totally aside from the intuitive aspect, I loved singing and it brought me joy, and made other people happy, and I had many amazing experiences and formed many amazing friendships.

I’m not suggesting that all of you singers have to go out and do intuitive readings for people. But I do think that as a singer, if you wanted to you, you have a head start in developing your intuition consciously. You already know the feeling of connecting with the Divine, and so you already have an instant shortcut. If you want to develop your intuition to use in all areas of your life, you are already ahead of the pack!

Kara

So now I’m dying of curiousity singers….What do you think? What is your experience with singing and your experience of the Divine? Please share in the comments! I am particularly interested in hearing from all my friends that I know from my singing days!

Were You Cleopatra’s Leg Waxer?

Posted on February 28, 2011 by conduitofjoy

Lately my intuition has been nudging me to offer some past life readings.  Past life readings can offer insights where a reaction of extreme fear, pain, phobia or other issues arise suddenly in your life, that seem disproportionate to the triggering cause.

**To promote past-life readings, this month new email subscribers who sign up at the top of this blog in the blue box (and any existing subscriber who refers someone new), are eligible to win a free past-life reading. See the bottom of this post for details.  The promotional price for any past-life readings booked in March is $60 (regular price is $95).**

Was that Really Me?

While past-life readings are fascinating, my struggle in the past with these readings has always been about wanting to be able to prove that they are “correct”, with some kind of external validation, which is really not possible.

However people who have received past-life readings from me, have felt a tangible connection to the information from their past lives. While the reactions have not been extreme, it seems more like most describe a subtle knowing, as if it there is a dawning of a faint glimmer that was buried deep within their unconscious.

People who have had past life readings feel a resonance between the past life and their present life.  It is almost like they can sense an echo of that former life in their present life. These validations have varied from a tingly feeling in the body, to an “aha!” about why that have had an affinity for a certain landscape, or a “knowing” about why they have always inexplicably been attracted to a certain way of life.  There has always been some reminder in their current life which confirms a resonance to a past life.

I don’t do past life readings just so that you can be amazed that you were Cleopatra’s leg waxer. Sure it might be interesting to have that proximity to a famous historical figure.  But more importantly that peeking back into that time for novelty’s sake, is knowing whether you mastered the lessons you were supposed to be learning in that lifetime. And just so you know, most people I’ve read for have been normal people living normal lives in their times…

How Can A Past Life Help Me Now?

I only do past-life readings for practical reasons. Sure it might be fascinating to observe the fashions in Salem right during your witch trial, but those things are not really helpful to you now.

The reason for going back to a past life is to help you progress and heal yourself from past trauma.  It is to assist you in releasing anything left unresolved so you can move past it in this life. What happened that you ended up being branded a witch? How does that affect you in your life now?  Do those issues keep you from living up to your highest potential?

When doing a past-life reading for you, I ask to be taken back to your most relevant past life.  I ask to bring back information for you about a life that caused you to bring any unfinished business into this life. (Since there may be more than one, I asked about the most relevant lesson for you.) The purpose of doing this type of reading, is to help you release anything that may be holding you back from your full potential in this life.

What have other people found out? Here are a few examples:

-       A fishwife in 18th century England, abandoned by her sailor love, repeating in this life her pattern of believing her happiness would only be in the future, and not valuing what she had in the present.

-       A priest in ancient Egypt who witnessed his fellow priests killing the King/God, resulting in the woman in this life into being torn between her sense of duty and the truth of her experience of reality.

-       A young noblewoman in 17th century America, who was burned by her community at the stake, for claiming to be able to communicate with God, causing a man to have extreme fear in this life of revealing that he is an intuitive.

All of these people were able to acknowledge that they felt these past lives rang true for them.  All were able to see the issue brought back for them had a relevance for them, and that addressing the old issue would allow them to move forward and progress with their lives.

Do you have an inkling that you have a lingering issue from a past life?  Something that has never quite made logical sense to you?

YOU ARE ELIGIBLE FOR A CHANCE TO WIN A FREE PAST LIFE READING!!

All you have to do is subscribe to this blog or refer a friend to become an email subscriber…

Climb Out Of Your Hole!

Posted on February 22, 2011 by conduitofjoy

Down in a hole, feelin’ so small, down in a hole, losin’ my soul,
I’d like to fly, but my wings have been so denied…~ Alice In Chains

For the past week, it felt like nothing was working out for me.  Work seemed overwhelming, finances tight, the kids were sick, my husband’s business deal was foundering, and I was waiting to hear about some work.  To top it off, I was sick too and nothing seemed to help me recover.  It didn’t help that the doldrums of winter were upon us, a time often difficult enough to get through itself despite anything else happening.

I felt like I had fallen into a deep hole, and I didn’t know how to get out.

It was very tempting to just lay and bed and cry about how things would never get better.  But I knew from past experience that as hard as it was, that wasn’t really going to help me.  I knew that I would have to go inside myself and find my own resources to get out of this deep hole.

It is easy when we are over-tired, and sick to just lose faith and just give up entirely.  Things can seem very bleak, and you wonder if things will ever change. Often in these times we feel unsupported and alone.  Alternating fatigue and hopelessness can turn into a vicious cycle, where the loss of faith and fatigue leads to further hopelessness, and on and on. 

If we want to get out of the hole, we must go within. While I am in this state, even contemplating going within, always seems to be the hardest thing to do.  But from all the times I have ever been in this state, I know that going within is the only key to getting out of the hole.

Here are the steps that got me back on track:

  1. Conserve your resources.

Look after yourself first.  This is very hard to remember when you are already exhausted.  But you have to go right back to the basics of looking after yourself.  Are you hungry? Are you over-tired? Do you need to play?  Listen to your body, and eat, nap and play.

Overextending yourself?  You are in triage mode now, so bow out as gracefully as you can.  Cancelling one social date, or volunteer commitment is not a big deal.

Need to take a sick day, even though the work is piled up to the ceiling?  I’m giving you permission.  If you don’t recover you won’t be able to do the work anyways.  Once your body is feeling better, things look brighter, and less challenging. 

2. Call for help! 

Phone a friend.  I have trouble remembering that I have friends when I am down in a hole.  But friends are very important during this time. 

Friends serve as mirrors to you of your state, and will give you affirmation that you do need to take care of yourself.  Even if you have no love for yourself, they can lend you their love for you.  They can remind you of all the reasons why your life is good.  All of these things will raise your vibration, and get you closer to climbing out of the hole.

Make sure you remember to call them.   

3. Continue to trust in Spirit.

This is a hard one to do, particularly when you are feeling hopeless, and feel like nothing is going your way.  You might even be angry at Spirit for not helping you fulfill your desires.  The first step is surrendering to your circumstances, and asking Source for help. Once this request is out there, keep your eyes peeled for answers — they are on their way.

The next step is being grateful for what you have. Look around yourself, and even if it seems insincere at first, start expressing your thanks for everything around you.  Whatever brings you the least bit of happiness, use it to remind yourself of what you have, and to leverage yourself into a higher vibration. 

Is the sun warming your face? Be grateful for that.  Did you see a photo that made you smile? Be grateful for all these small things, and gradually it will be easier to become aware of and grateful of the big things you have going for you.

4. Listen to your intuition

Try to heed your intuitive urges even if they are very quiet, and especially if your stress and worry has cut you off from them.  Once I had recommitted to trusting Source, even though my trust was low, it was amazing how quickly “little” things started coming into my path. 

A dear friend called with just the right message (thanks Heather!).  I stumbled across blog posts which reminded me what I needed to do. Within a day of my surrender and request to the Source, I was able to find the resources I needed to finally pull me out of the hole.

Colette Baron-Reid, calls this emotional place “the Barren Desert” in her book “The Map”, and describes it in her most recent blog post here.  She advises tapping into the power of your internal reality by comparing it with the characteristics of a desert.

“What wisdom can you glean from the attributes of this environment? If you find you’re in the desert in your life, you must conserve your energy rather than squander it mindlessly on worry and negativity. Savor what you have and practice gratitude for every drop of goodness. You might have to dig deep to get to the nourishment and insight you need, but it’s there…Even though it seems endless, you will eventually leave the desert. If you have courage and continue to be resourceful, you will thrive. You must trust in Spirit; no matter your outer circumstances, the sun is still shining bright upon you!”

I’m so glad that you are here if you needed to be reminded of this too. 

Don’t forget that I can also help you get back in touch with your intuition, if you have lost touch with it.  If you want help determining the next easiest step for you to take, I am happy to give a virtual hand hold while we get you back with your intuition!  

Climbing out of your hole can be much easier and gentler than you think, especially when I can support you.  Email me at conduitofjoy@hotmail.com, and we’ll work together to get you out of your hole, and back on your path. 

And if I happen to fall into the hole unexpectedly again, I’ll just be able to read this post, instead of sadly stumbling around in the bottom of hole for awhile…
