What if a rosebud immediately opened and bloomed when you spoke kindly to it? Imagine.
What if ALL businesses closed to “keep us safe,” or “save lives”? Imagine.
What if we save the unborn then created bureaucracy that led their families down a poor economic path, so their choices were limited, or minimal? Imagine.
What if we punished people (to the point of death), when they made mistakes? We do. It’s not right, if we choose Life.
What if you had to choose between a mother’s life and the life of her baby, during the process of birth? Choice happens. No blame.
What if most suffer due to the choices of a few? It happens. Seems insane.
What if a rosebud immediately opened and bloomed when you touched it? Imagine.
What if a rosebud immediately opened and bloomed when you spoke kindly to it? Imagine. ❤️🦋🌀
Now, that I’ve broken free from the drama of my youth;
Having learned what it means to heal and become whole;
And written, spoken and sang many times about all of that;
Having traveled through many of the states I’d dreamed of;
I’ve found myself, and continued to be:
Steeped in history;
Fascinated by my ancestry;
Serene near the ocean;
Entranced by magical trees;
Engaged with mystical rocks;
And mesmerized by waterfalls;
Raising children at the World’s Most Famous Beach, and lastly at the Jersey shore;
Enjoying the beach sand in summer,
The endless sway of the palm trees,
More than watching the games people play;
I’ve lived in the middle of the USA in the icy winter and visited snowy New England,
To usher in new technology and witness twin granddaughters birth;
I haven’t always been true to myself,
but I’ve experienced magnificence growth in ALL.
I’ve found excitement, romance, pain, and peace;
I’ve discovered that I’ve always been me, in ALL ways—whether happy or sad;
And I am thankful.
I am content.
I was me all along.
And I put all of me into my children, the good, the bad, and the beautiful;
My soul hasn’t changed much, but my mind and heart has expanded;
Widening my perception;
Deepening my compassion;
I’ve enhanced my understanding of so many things;
And calibrated back to balance;
To continue to bloom where I am planted.
Me – 42 years later.

Observations about the author
Conversations surrounding emotional balance, moral ambiguities, and deep spiritual truths (such as We Are All Connected, and Put Your Hands Together When You Pray), are what Sheila is most passionate about. She feels a profound empathic Connection with people and what they’re going through by merely sharing her own truth, by speaking freely about her personal struggles and the challenges she continues to overcome.

Today, and everyday, the peace of Omnipotent God, or what I have been given to know as, Omniscience—envelops me. May I see more aspects of OM.
From a place of peace.
I am enveloped by Omniscience
May I become more consciously aware of the essence of Omniscience, or Omnipresence.
Omniscience is always. There. Here. In. Through. Out. Around. East. West. North. South. Above. Below. Beside.
I love the empty space, white space, shadows, etc. and I recognize they aren’t really empty at all. ❤️🦋🌀
Light appears as ALL colors.
We are fractals of Omniscience
And we are each emanating Energy as a fractal of YOU.
All attachments are illusion. Even the attachment to your Ego isn’t real. The multi-faceted aspects of ourselves often do not shine from our innermost being or truth. This is because, human nature being what it is, personalities evolve (for better or worse), at differing rates of speed.
I can forget all things except the Love of Omniscience. 🌀
Quotes by Sheila Murrey
Open my awareness of boundlessopportunities
Creator, as I awake each day, open my awareness to the boundless opportunities and abundant miracles (big and small), that I may enhance and expand my perception of ALL things. And as we share eternity, may I feel unlimited by time.
Energy control.
Time knows no bounds
I observe only growth, and note how each item of your creation grows at differing rates of speed, be it bird 🐦, bee 🐝, or me. Growth transcends time. I make a conscious choice not to judge others who have not learned the things I have learned (are not up to speed with me), and I choose to be easy on myself whenever I am tempted to feel that I am not up to speed with others who have reached their highest potential. I give myself Time.
Abide in Love & Compassion
The more I fully open and express to abide in You, the more I shine brilliant Love. And from LOVE, compassion, peace, and joy ripple and spiral outward. ❤️🦋🌀☀️🌱🎼😘

Thank you for helping me choose a better feeling thought!
I don’t know if I’ve ever (publicly) explained this before, but I absorb, and tolerate, even accept ”upset“ to a point, but after kindly expressing my concerns or frustrations (to one or more people), and not being heard, I then speak in a firm, perhaps demanding ”tone” or get loud.
At some point, my emotions boil over. And it only seems people hear me then. Ugh!
Either you want people to share, or you don’t. I am not shy, nor boastful. I am nice. I am kind.
The stream of consciousness, when cut, will come out in another way. Because Life ALLways finds a way.
Have you been belittled, or picked last?
In my 58 years on this planet, I’ve learned that I’m typically too nice, overly sensitive, and emotional. But, I am not a victim, and certainly do not wallow in victimhood.
I’m a deep and careful listener, loyal friend, and strong advocate (especially for the underdogs, misunderstood, misfits, and those who create a healthier world for us all—beyond the next 7 generations). I am a critical thinker. And embrace individuality. I love the freedom I find in BEing independent.
I have a profound knowing that We Are All Connected. And that we’re only as strong as our weakest link.
We can pull together, or we can pull apart.
Notice the separation of the colors of the rainbow 🌈? What does it make you appreciate?
Even the rainbow’s colors are separated. But, by what? Though the colors are separate, we love the rainbow.
I listen first
I sit and I listen, gratefully with as much compassion as I have access to with mySelf, as others talk, often sharing too much of the current discord.
Then I speak.
But, it doesn’t feel good to me, when my voice gets “put in the back of the bus” by someone.
I only speak when I feel a strong urge. When I am compelled to share. I am propelled by Omniscience. And when my voice is cut off while I am sending love, what shall I do? This physically hurts me. I care deeply. But because of my complexion, my pain doesn’t matter? We ALL have a message, but here I go again, having to write it through my tears because SOMEONE felt they needed to hear from their more important “in that moment” others.
Imperfect action
In my humble opinion, promoting or monetizing poor behavior—is of a low vibration. And it serves to perpetuate one-sided, dense thinking. And yes, I know how that sounds. I am well aware that is a judgment, and obviously, others see nothing wrong with it to further their “cause.” We never really know who (or how) others, no matter their complexion or ethnicity, have been persecuted.
Learning all the time
Do you believe as I, that life is a school? And that Everything, in particular, every experience we have is presented to us for learning?
Do you often wish you would respond to each challenge with your best response? Perhaps people use bullying tactics to feel empowered. Perhaps bullying is their way of standing in their power. But, to the one in their way, it feels as though they are preying on the vulnerable or weak person.
I write a lot about the power of words, and tone. And tone can be expressed in writing, as well as when spoken. Thus, I thought I had grown to a place where words couldn’t hurt me. But, I believe that we all mirror each other to some degree.
Mirror work
I don’t want to mirror someone’s dark side, so I often walk away, and simply stop arguing or fighting. I realize that “sending them love” would be my highest vibrational response, yet I am not always emotionally strong enough. At times, I have pushed back and been direct, only for the situation to escalate—even to the point of physical abuse.
An example:
This brings me to relate a recent situation: I was emotionally triggered by a response (that looked and felt quite rude), to a comment made by one of my longest and dearest friends on my group, We Are All Connected. My dear friend had expressed her deeply religious comment (based on her belief) to a beautiful photo I had shared. The problem was that an acquaintance didn’t like my friends’ comment and felt offended by it because he is an atheist.
Initially, when I read his comment I felt it in my body. And the feeling wasn’t good. My gut wrenched because I felt like I had been punched! I wanted to spare my friends feelings, and as the admin, I removed HIS comment. That set off more back and forth from him because he felt I was choosing sides. And I was. Not because I don’t like him, or dislike atheists, or because I like her more, and approve of her religious beliefs, but simply to FEEL BETTER. (And he clearly broke the group rules anyway—he was not kind.)
Second example:
I have taken a lot of being talked down to, even in the business coaching program I am currently in. I often receive criticism, push back, month after month. Though we are encouraged to think big, and come up with a program worthy of a $10k price-tag, MY ideas are often dismissed as either “fantasy,” “unrealistic,” or that we may not be UP TO delivering what we want to offer.
So, I had one of those “last straw” moments in a group the other day. And unfortunately that moment coincided with other personal stressors (which I had tried to explain to my coach the day before, but was ushered to focus on our objective for efficiency’s sake).
Either you want people to share, or you don’t. I thought the point of a small group discussion was to speak our heart?
Of course I honor everyone on our intimate group calls. But, they had been quiet and I felt the inspiration to speak, so I broke through any thoughts about being misunderstood, and I opened my mouth to speak healing.
I will never know, now, what the last sentence would have been (it was only one more sentence), because our coach felt he needed to hear from others in our group (whom had not spoken in 8 minutes, and no one knew why). And thankfully, I had gotten to share a few thoughts, a few minutes earlier. I think my grandmother may have been speaking through me. And it’s sad her words were not allowed to be heard. I think she wanted us to realize that we never know who or how others, no matter their complexion or ethnicity, have been persecuted. But apparently, that was not the time (to speak that knowledge aloud).
Empowerment Coaching
I can find value in Everything. And I can turn, turn, turn, to the next best feeling.
All that to say, as a writer, and spiritually open-minded, caring, empathic, and such, I came abruptly, face-to-face with my own fallibility. I am human. I am not perfect. So how can I be an empowering coach?
By teaching you this? Thank YOU (in appreciation of whomever is challenging me in any moment), for helping me make a better choice.
Ponder
Maybe we need to start by changing the way we think about these words:
black and dark, white and light.
Look deeper.
Consider this:
People for whatever reason, even as children, are afraid of the dark.
Light complexion people tend to call anyone with a darker complexion, black.
Black in the light spectrum is the absorption of all the other colors.
Others?
Let’s ponder this.
At some point, in the spiral of time, humanity will learn to appreciate, honor, and even revere, the CONTRAST that brings about Creation.
ALLways remember:
You are worthy.
Your inner YOU is L-I-M-I-T-L-E-S-S
As ALLways, thank YOU for helping me make a better choice.
Newgrange: Inside the chamber during the Winter Solstice
I won a place for myself and a guest, (out of 30,861 lottery applications drawn by the local children from three different schools), to go inside the Newgrange monument burial chamber, at Bru Na Boinne, County Meath Ireland for the Winter Solstice sunrise on Dec. 18th, 2019.
And though the sun’s rays did not shine at sunrise the morning we were there, it was still a magnificent and surreal time to be in the chamber with a select few for the experience.
It was also another string of events that were tied to the date of the 18th, which held significant meaning for me. (I call those happenings, winks from my dad.)
A littlebackground
We had first visited Knowth and Newgrange in July 2019, while on our Sacred Celtic Journey with Patricia McGivern—and I had felt palpable energy at Knowth, and been utterly fascinated by Newgrange. See my previous articles regarding that amazing trip:
Going inside the Newgrange chamber was such an incredible experience. This was my second time inside during the same year—and at such a special time of the year. I really felt as though I was walking into the mystic.
Unlocking mysteries at Newgrange during Winter Solstice.
The mysteries began to unfold for me, as soon as I got on the bus in the wee hours of December 18th, 2019.
I was so excited and thrilled to be back in Ireland, and to be one of the 10 Newgrange chamber Winter Solstice lottery winners who would go inside the chamber that morning!
Though our friends told me of the weather forecast (of clouds and rain), I didn’t want to believe it! I had sooo hoped to be mesmerized by the sunlight that was said could light the entire inner chamber at sunrise on the Winter Solstice!
As we drove from Dublin through the night, out to the sacred site (we had to arrive early in the morning predawn), there was a calm and peace overtaking me. I was there, along for the ride, and whatever the weather would do, was none of my business. Whatever happened, I trusted it would be for my conscious expansion.
Bundled up for the cold and wet weather outside the Newgrange chamber.
Our small group of 20 people (10 lottery winners plus a guest each), toured the brand new visitors center and rode a tram out to the monument. We walked through a light mist of rain from the tram stop to the chamber. All before dawn. All hopeful to witness something none of us had seen before—the Winter Solstice sunrise into a stone age chamber.
Since my husband did not care to go inside the neolithic chamber, we had invited friends to go with us. One of them went into the chamber with me, while the other waited outside. My hubby stayed back at the hotel and slept in that morning.
Our small group before heading in. Note the dark clouds in the upper right.
Inside the chamber
Heading into the chamber. Thank goodness for house lights, as it was narrow and I had to duck in sections of the passageway in.
While we all waited patiently for the sunrise, someone played crystal bowls and chanted lightly.
I caught a quick picture of the crystal bowls later, after the lights were on.
I think because the sun didn’t shine for us that morning, the stewards of the site, granted us a few more minutes, so after the 20 exited, our friends got to go back inside (along with myself and our driver, Edel). And we ALL felt sooo privileged!
Picture of a special recessed area in the chamber. Looking toward the back and top.Picture of a special recessed area in the chamber. Looking towards the floor. The object on the floor is stone and shaped as a kind of slab.Another view of that area looking straight ahead. The stones were gigantic and the etchings on each were fascinating!
I spent several minutes inside the chamber soaking up the feeling of just BEing there. Though my feet were cold, I remember thinking it wasn’t as cold overall as I had thought it might be. But without the little pen light flashlights on, or the house lights, it is really pitch dark in the chamber. I had put my hand out in front of my face at one point in the dark, as we all waited for sunrise, and I couldn’t even see my hand!
One of the stones were carved into a huge basin or bowl!This is one of the professional marketing pictures the visitor center displays for how it looks inside the chamber during a Winter Solstice sunrise.This is what it looked like when they turned on house lights to simulate a bright sunrise for us.Pen light sunrise simulation.My favorite (and perhaps the most well known) of the carvings or etchings into the stone at the rear of the chamber. Note: It is the symbol on the pendant I bought there and have worn everyday since.
On the way out of the chamber the last time, I consciously chose to take my gloves off and touch the ancient stones and whisper, “Thank you” to them. I felt such a connection with those incredible stones.
Coming out of thechamber
Coming out of the chamber.
The majority of our group had walked back to the tram that moves people from the visitors center to the chamber site, so only a few of us remained. It was so delicious that we had more time inside the chamber and were able to really engage with the park staff and ask questions, take pictures (normally not allowed), and sing, chant, or meditate. Afterwards, we caught another tram back to the visitors center, which gave us even more time to visit!
You can see how bundled most of us were and the wet ground. This was at the entrance/exit of the chamber. Same way in and out. and everyone has to duck at the the entrance.
As for the sunrise, a cold weather front happened to be moving in just as the sun was about to rise. Go figure! We’d experienced beautiful weather all week in Dublin (cold but clear), but the day of our chamber visit, it chose to rain. It is what it is. And I gained insights.
Insights
Some of the inspiring messages that dropped into my mind were deeper “unlockings” (yes, my new word), of concepts that I’d been given previously, and others were new. See these examples:
Expanded quotes of mine.A release mantra (prayer or meditation) that I was given. ❤️🦋🌀
I had questioned myself (when Bru na Boinne visitor center had contacted me that I’d won the entry), about spending the time and money to go, since the sunrise only lasts for 17 minutes and is weather dependent, but I chose to go. And we did have an excellent time with our friends.
We got to learn so much more about Dublin on this trip. As well as, I had gotten to meet Edel, and hear some timeless stories (such as the one about my namesake, Sheela na gig), that we otherwise would not have known.
Christmas in Dublin
Me by the Christmas tree at the Trinity City hotel, Dublin Ireland.
I would be remiss if I didn’t mention that Christmas time in Dublin was a beautiful treat too! We visited several places during our week there, sites we had not had the time to see in July.
We spent half a day at the Guinness factory, went to a botanical park, shopped (I bought Claddagh rings for my granddaughters), visited the Whiskey Museum Experience, went to the oldest pub for a dinner and musical storytelling evening, as well as laughed ourselves silly on a haunted bus tour that ended up at a pub and cemetery!
Richard and me at Guinness, Dublin Ireland.
Coming home
I returned to the USA with energy, enthusiasm, and enlightenment from my time at this sacred site.
With Tony you will experience the authentic Ireland, with storytelling and singing to boot! Tony’s sense of humor will delight you. Tony’s bus was so comfortable and provided all the needed amenities to make riding all day in it a pleasure.
We booked our December ride from Dublin to Newgrange with Tony, but through a twist of fate, he was unavailable at that time. However, because Tony is incredibly caring, he arranged for another driver and guide, Edel, to take us out to Newgrange for the Winter Solstice sunrise event.
And right from the get go (as we left our hotel), I felt a strong sense of connection with Edel. Edel told me deeply meaningful stories, as we rode out to Newgrange in the early morning of December 18th, that brought a tear to my eye more than once! I felt so supported by my family (all Beyond The Veil) and by the Universe.
My time at Newgrange and our entire week in Dublin was ALL pure magic.

Using highly resonating words to empower ourselves and others
Launching the beginning of 2020, WORDPLAY to Empowerment is a new method and play-shop (a fun workshop class) developed by Sheila Murrey, self-help author of Transform Your Life! Inspirational Stories and Expert Advice (2014. Transformation Publishing); The Energy of Receiving (2015. Happiness Publishing); and Take It Upon Yourself to Live a Wholly Vibrant Life! (2018. Self.)
The WORDPLAY to Empowerment play-shop class shares a writer’s method specifically designed to ease one into feeling: better, balanced, supported, and stronger—one thought and word at a time. Plus, it can’t hurt!
Impetus for creation
In working alongside entrepreneurs and small business owners on copy and Search Engine Optimization (SEO) for their websites, I discovered that a real need exists for wellness providers to become aware and more conscious of the words they speak, and put into their copy, websites, blogs, etc.
I’ve also been doing a lot (for years), to sort of play with words on a vibrational level, as demonstrated in Facebook comments, Tweets, T-shirt designs, blog articles, and more. You may have noticed how I used the word “Wholly” in the title of my recent book, instead of the more straightforward words of “Holy” or “Whole” to play off those words and create more curiosity.
Thus, I developed the first workshop to test out my intuitive leaning into all of this. A writer speaks: Words Workshop has been rebranded.
I am thrilled to release this now as, WORDPLAY to Empowerment.
The goals of this engaging play-shop are to help us:
Release WORDS that no longer serve us (or our business)
Add uplifting, inspiring. and empowering WORDS to our daily vocabulary (and marketing copy)
Those looking for new and innovative ways to treat health conditions
Raise our consciousness
Raise and Connect the consciousness of ALL
Audience:
Wellness practitioners and business owners, nurses, teachers, and parents. Anyone interested in Energy, Frequency, Vibration, Consciousness, Alternative health, Holism, or natural ways to improve one’s health and mindset.
The workshop that became a Method
The focus of the method is to:
Release the WORDS that no longer serve us, such as, low frequency cuss words, (notice when we use these words – typically when we’re angry, upset, or in pain; we often overuse, unnecessary words, or those said because we think we need to fill empty space.
Playfully identify the words we consistently USE and what our intention is when we speak them. We’ll specifically listen for the tone we use because that carries the frequency (Love = Creation, or Fear = “to destroy” / curse).
Engagement
Participants are inspired and encouraged to PLAY in this interactive class (where the facilitator will be using a whiteboard and 3×5 index cards).
This will be an empowering exercise in Awareness, by a writer with over 33 years of career experience and two degrees, both in science (aviation business) and art (visual communications).
Uniquely connect
Together, we’ll use unique ways to explore how we can replace the lower vibration words we often use, with higher vibrating and more purposeful words, (which hold our deeper truths), to uplift and empower ourselves and others to raise our consciousness. This work benefits ALL.
Word mining
We’ll mine for energetic words that resonate higher (and actively reach into the ether) to become aware of the empowering CHOICES we have when it comes to improving our lives using authentically powerful words.
Improves speaking
Yes, voice matters in multitudinous ways.
We’ll spend some time playing and feeling the way in which our newly found, high frequency words FEEL when we speak them. This will allow us to fine tune the way in which we will deliver these words and the best feeling tone we will use (both to ourself and others) going forward.
Finding and using the best tone, when speaking these new words, will amplify the effects. You’ll be amazed!
Bonus!
We will uncover brilliant SEO keywords to expand our reach in the Mind, Body, Spirit, Soul Internet space. Yes, words that will not only empower you, but words that genuinely express who you are! These takeaways will become tangible ways for you and your technical team to upgrade your marketing copy and reach more potential clients!

Well, yes I know. This was a long awaited post for many of you! My apologies for putting this next to last on my list of our European trip articles to get done, but I hope worth the wait! And anyway, the first shall be last and the last shall be first.
I still have one more article of our arrival and first day in Ireland to post. So stay tuned! ❤️🦋🌀😉
Our Game of Thrones tour (from Dublin, Ireland June 29, 2019) went to northern Ireland, which seems to be a different country, as the monetary system changed to the British pound. Only a small sign marked the border along the highway as our tour bus drove us near Belfast.
Preparing for the trek
Prior to beginning our Sacred Celtic Journey, and as a bit of bait (nah, not really needed though, as my hubby had already decided to go to Europe with me), we arrived in Dublin, Ireland on Friday, June 28, 2019. This afforded us the luxury of having a free day to acclimate to the time difference and explore Dublin city centre before embarking on a full day Game of Thrones trek on Saturday.
We brought our good hiking boots, and dressed in layers, and though I had trained for about a month prior to going on this trip, I found out that I hadn’t done enough! 🤣
The GoT trek
Our GoT tour did not disappoint! In fact, it was entirely amazing!!!
Our tour guide, Eric, had been an extra on the spectacular and daring Game of Thrones (GoT for those unfamiliar with the abbreviation) show for 8 seasons and totally knew his stuff. He gave us inside information about the show, including behind-the-scenes, making of GoT episodes, site locations, and much more!

Eric literally brought every location to life for our tour group! He provided us all a look at 8.5 x 11 inch laminated photos so we could link, in our mind, each location to scenes from the show and enable us to have a point of reference. This not only enhanced our enjoyment of the tour, but gave us the ability later to relive points of the trek when we rewatched episodes of GoT! Excellent!!

We learned all about how they made the fake snow. Really incredible.

Physicality
We had not expected this trek to be so physical, but we walked and hiked over 14,000 steps (equating to about 7 miles) over hilly and uneven terrain. So, if you go, and we highly recommend all fans of GoT go, really check your physicality, stamina, and endurance levels! Oh, and it would serve you well to take along a tube of our gel product for any tired or sore muscles you experience—you can order from me (comment for more info).
We were pleased that we had the stamina to do it though, as it was quite the extraordinary experience! And yes, we had some small tubes of product with us, but had I known how sore my legs and feet were going to be, I would have taken the larger tube with us!
Love the show even more now
After experiencing several of the site locations, and hearing about how the extras often carried set items or equipment on foot to each of these locations (because the first season had a lower budget), it gave us new respect as to how it all got done. And now we can really imagine how difficult it was.
The lunch menu. We all preordered. Think the restaurant was called the Lobster Pot. Lunch. My Guinness in a wooden mug. 😉Best seafood chowder I had the whole 18 days of our trip!Geoffrey’s crown.
After lunch, we had great joy meeting the actual dogs that were used to portray (with CGI help), the Stark family’s Dire wolves.

Winterfell

From the Winterfell site, we hiked a loop to see a couple more locations. First, the infamous hanging tree, then the expansive views where several waters edge and water landings scenes were shot.
The hanging tree. It was so creepy!!Hiked to Audleys castle I am enjoying the views they filmed many of the sea or water landings.Amazing viewGorgeous closeupHappened to catch a bird in flight!
Final stop
At the last stop, Inch Abbey, (after we were quite worn out from the day), we were all invited to dress up with actual clothes and props from GoT and play among the ruins. I did my best to make some mean faces (not good at that), and make believe for awhile. The end of a grand tour!
