Julia and I have both been speakers on Gina Virginia Casella’s Summer conference, and she’s coming back as monitor for the Fall conference and I’m coming back as a healer with two new songs, created especially for the Dragon Dreamers Soul Tribe! So, if you resonate with all of this, you’ll definitely want to get your ticket and join us Live on September 19th, 2026.

Falling Consciously Saturday September 19th, 2026 Gina Virginia Casella Online Conference.

Be sure to order the Falling Consciously September 19th Conference ticket (as the December Conference ticket is available via that same link). Use my code at check out, SHEMUR to save a bit and funnel a bit to me too. Please and thank you!

I’ve completed the video where I share both of the new songs for our Falling Consciously conference and am really excited to share those! I’ve also created two new videos of both songs for later release on YouTube, but I really want to get LIVE reactions to the songs. I think that would be great fun!

News and new links

I’ve been busy updating links (both at the end of this article and on the WordPress menu of this site). Since taking on the role of ‘promoter’ for the Moves Method (along with a few hundred others), I’ve been quite busy for a couple hours each day, both doing my own mobility training, recording it, and then creating promo videos to share on Instagram and TikTok. I also share these videos to Facebook and my YouTube channel. I will be paid a commission based on views, likes, if a video goes viral, and any sales made via my link, and so far, I’m exciting watching the stats grow! I can’t tell you how MOTIVATING this has all been! Especially getting to be creative with Instagram and TikTok, learning Edits, Canva, and other such creative tools to craft professional videos for the Moves Method.

I’m continuing heal the nerve pain I’ve been experiencing for the last few weeks. I’m continuing to use my shiatsu massage pillow, though I’ve not felt any more release from the nerve impingement. And I did get another neck massage pillow and I’m not sure I like the way it provides massage (and it’s loud), but I love the actual pillow part of it and could sleep on it if needed, without the massage on–plus it offers heat and cold settings, which really work!

The shoulder/arm nerve pain is nearly gone now, and I am sooo thankful! The nerve tonic from Florida helped, though it did not relieve the nerve pain as quickly or as obviously as the first formulation had. Christina actually added to her formula (St. John’s Wort was added and a few other things) this time for me, but it was more expensive too. I’m not taking as much of it this time as I did the first time. Call me frugal. The DMSO gel was a disappointment–it didn’t really do much and smelled bad. But I used it daily for several days just to “try anything.” I do believe the Kailo, a reusable plastic pain relief patch has helped a lot! Initially, I got about 50% relief while wearing the Kailo and I continue to use it though I’m at nearly 90% relief. I’m sleeping all night now, finally! As we know sleep is necessary for healing. Thus, all the way around, I am feeling better! And I am down almost two inches on my waist from when I began doing the Moves Method mobility training. And THAT’S EXCITING!

Moves Method

Here’s yesterday’s long form video (7 minutes) that I made in Canva explaining why I’m addicted to the Moves Method (and how it’s been helping me): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7ANU0pFeRq8

I truly hope many of my friends, family, and blog/book readers join me in the Moves Method commUnity! You won’t believe what a supportive and nurturing group of others there are, as well as the Moves Method trainers, who are always there to encourage and inspire us onward and upward! The introductory toolkit is only $27. And that’s been the best $27 I’ve probably ever spent for what I’ve gotten out of it thus far. If you know you need this, here’s the link to join: https://movesmethod.com/toolkit-ca?a=sheila1&utm_source=growi&utm_medium=affiliate&utm_campaign=the-movers&utm_term=sheila1&_atid=uIxBEoTEYWtDKXLKDBxDUFHtvCoeWQ

And yes, I get a little credit if you join, but I DO really want you there with me.

Breathing in the miracles today…

I’m breathing and repeating my new mantra: “Art communicates more than words, builds new brain neural pathways, and connects us all!”

Yours in consciousness-expansion as we evolve and revolve during our mystical awakening. Doing-my-egoless-best, to take you on a limitless, spiraling integrating ride to better health, doing with more ease and less effort-ing, to help us find and sustain the JOY in our lives! (Sprinkling Gratitude all around while we’re at it.)

Bridging the WOO into everything we DO, now. And loving it.

I’ve completed the Barn sketch!

I have completed my most ambitious sketch yet! It is of my husband’s old pen and ink barn artwork. I must correct my previous post about it though. I’d thought it was of a barn that had been on his parent’s farm, but Richard said it was Mr. Hampton’s barn — near Richard’s old home place. Good enough.

The girls all went back to school this Monday, and one of the back yard trees has already started to get golden leaves, so summer is over I guess. Shoot. I didn’t get to do near enough outside this summer. At least, the ground is still warm enough I can get my bare feet on the grass. I’ve been doing some of my Moves Method videos out in the back yard and THAT feels great, so I’ve gotta simply BE happy with that, and enjoy the quiet of Fall and Winter here in New England.

The old barn

I enjoyed this, though it took me several days. Granted, I was in nerve pain through it all, so there’s that. I had NO IDEA how this would turn out, or even IF it would turn out!

Barn sketch progress 2.0 here. You can still see the light brown pencil. Richard began complimenting me at this point. –Sheila Murrey
Completed sketch of the barn. Richard’s art (left) and my version (right). I did stop short of filling in all the grass in the foreground, as it would take up too much of my marker ink. And I thought that using a black oil pastel would detract from it overall. –Sheila Murrey
Completed sketch of the barn. Richard has complimented me many times on this. He really liked how the stacks of wood turned out on the little wagon! I can’t begin to describe how that feels. He thought me leaving the grass out makes it look more like snow in the foreground. Maybe! –Sheila Murrey

Moves Method

My new venture, mobility training with Moves Method is going well. I’ve had over a thousand views on some of the shorts for it via my YouTube channel and the TikTok shorts are gaining a lot of attention too –here’s the most recent short: https://youtube.com/shorts/vtTQnmG6ptk?si=7yEnouTEOu3XRJcS I’ve figured out a pretty good way to create a short ONCE on TikTok (even using “creator” type templates, then simply forward that video to Instagram (and Facebook). Sort of a cascading method of sharing, which saves me time and makes me feel techie all over again! Ha! More of a plan coming together, I guess you could say.

Prayers for Nepal

Continuing to pray for the people in Nepal. I have not been looking at the photos from Nepal. It’s enough for me to know what’s happened. I am not “hiding my head in the sand” either, I just feel that continuing to offer prayer is the highest and best I can do for them at this time, versus filling my mind with pictures of devastation. I’m also beginning to think I should apply that same idea to other negative/sad subjects.

Have you ever made Tepache? Life advice from Dolly, and Barn sketch in progress

I was shocked but not really sad about Dolly’s passing the other day, and Tim Curry’s passing. I think that’s because I simply don’t get that sad anymore about anything. So, not to worry, the rest of this post is going to be kept lighthearted. I’ll get into making a new fermented drink from Mexico, new job (that’s a joy), and show you a new sketch (in progress that I’ve been working on) the model of which, is my husband’s old pen and ink artwork. It’s an image of a barn that had been on his parent’s farm for years.

Good interview of Dolly with Reese: https://youtu.be/kuWmJjd0J7o?si=A9kzRlkv_EB3kuNY

I’ve been busy sketching, doing mobility training, checking in on our twin granddaughters during the days when both their parents are working and the eldest is over at her boyfriend’s house. Thus, I have been staying busy, though I enjoy my quiet times too–after all I am retired. Ha!

A few days ago I was asked to take part in a new venture, one that I had already been doing a lot of–sharing about the Moves Method on my YouTube channel –here’s the short from Day 1: https://www.youtube.com/shorts/NZ_ihXF9sb0 so you can see what I’m doing. And this will get you started if you want to join me. I’m also posting on Facebook, Instagram, and TikTok! I’m super excited about this because I will actually get paid on any sales that come through my link!!! And I get to learn a LOT more about the program for myself, as well as, how to be a REAL social media influencer on TikTok, Instagram, and so on, which is all knowledge I can use to help me promote our original music and artwork. So, it’s a win-win situation all the way around for us. And “I LOVE IT when a plan comes together” as the movie line goes! Haha!

The old barn

This is taking some time, but I am enjoying it.

I’m a little farther along now, but this was how it looked when I began. I used a light brown pencil to rough it out. I’ll show a couple more steps in my next post. –Sheila Murrey

Tepache

My master herbalist friend is from Mexico and she makes a fermented pineapple drink called, Tepache. She did a little tutorial of how to make it (in the free group she and her husband run on the Skool platform–you can join if you want to). I’ll add the link in a moment. Anyway, I made this last week and it turned out to be delicious and very good for my gut! I have been eating a LOT more fermented foods this week too. All in an effort to heal my gut, whether I actually have “leaky gut” or not. Here’s a couple of photos and link to Christina and Michael’s Skool group: https://www.skool.com/herbalcottage/

Prayers for the people in Nepal. My qigong/dao teacher and healer, Lama Nicholas Packard used to live there for about 20 years. He’s passed now too, but I always think of him when I hear anything about Nepal. I also think of my friend Maria (in Florida) who travels to Nepal often. The people we’re connected to in this life make it special, don’t they. I don’t know what life would be like without them. But I know they would not want us to be sad.

A riff on death, dying, and the afterlife after revisiting old posts

I thought I’d riff a bit on death (the grief people may experience), dying (and perhaps the suffering some endure), and the afterlife here after reading (and listening) to an older post of mine: https://sheilamurrey.net/2023/05/06/invitation-and-dream-about-paul-newman/ and after creating the video book review of How to Become a Christian in 7 Days by Russell Brand.

NOTE: If any of my words here trigger you, it’s because there’s a wounded or fragmented part of you that is calling out for healing. And remember this is my journey and my truth that I speak of and none of it may apply to you–I seek no human’s approval. For the dear persons my message resonates with, I welcome your feedback and appreciate your time.

Overview

I reflect on the complexities of death, grief, and the afterlife, drawing from personal experiences and cultural references. I discuss the spectrum of death experiences, from sudden, peaceful passings to prolonged, painful ones, and the comfort provided by the 23rd Psalm. I mention Dr. Raymond Moody and his book, along with shared death groups, noting the limited human understanding of the afterlife. The speaker also references Russell Brand’s book and their own spiritual journey, emphasizing the importance of language in addressing these topics and offering support to those grieving or facing death.

An artful rendition of the 23rd Psalm. –Wikipedia

I reflect on the impact of death, expressing sympathy for those grieving and emphasizing the importance of joy and gratitude. I discuss my belief in an omniscient God and the interconnectedness of all beings, sharing personal experiences of loss, including the deaths of loved ones and a family member’s murder. Despite these tragedies, I found peace through love and the belief that everything happens for a reason, advocating for daily gratitude and trust in a higher power. The speaker also touches on the concept of Omniscience (Source, Creator, God) and the role of humans as fractals of Omniscience, suggesting that love and connection transcend individual experiences.

Audio (part 1):

Audio (part 2):

I know how suddenly death can impact our lives, and I’m truly sorry for any bit of grief anyone is experiencing right now or will experience. I know that everybody dies. It’s a fact that I lived live with. I’ve never been afraid of death, though maybe a little bit about the actual dying process. But I’ve seen it happen slowly, and I’ve seen it happen quickly, and it’s happened shockingly to people in our lives as well. So whether we call it loneliness, sadness, anger, emptiness, or any such other emotion, I’m sorry for the loss we feel so deeply when it comes to missing a person or or a pet within our daily routine, and I pray you will fill that void of time and space with things that are pleasing to you and offer joy. Joy, I believe, is the highest feeling, sensation, or experience that we can know in this life, anyway. And realize too that that person or pet you’ve lost would always want you to live in joy. I hope you know that they loved being with you. If that’s the one message I can get across here, I don’t want you to lose a minute of your life. I don’t want to lose a minute of my life, this precious life, crying and sitting in grief, or worse, depression. I watched my dad go through that after my mother passed. So, if you’ve lost anyone for any reason, no matter how shocking, because I know how precious this life is. When I meet and I pray when I cross over, I will immediately meet my Creator, Source, Energy, Ever Living, Almighty, Omniscience God. Whether that be whatever form that takes, and whatever that experience is, whether it be I meet Christ Jesus face to face, He appearing before me, or when I’m simply enveloped by the brightest light imaginable. I hope I hear. I want to hear the words, “It is done, and I want this supreme presence of omniscience, God, to know I did all I could in this life, even when humbly it was not always my best. I I know I’ve not always done my best. So truly, in this, in the big overarching view of life, I believe everything happens for a reason. I’ve just seen the and experienced the resonance of those words so many times, and more importantly, reaching for that higher, ethereal message of everything resolves to gratitude. When you sit in your gratitude every day, when you sit there, when you meditate, or you’re just sitting for five minutes being grateful, think about how every single thing in your life has happened to bring you to the point where you are today, and how then everything, even the things that were hurtful, even the things that were traumatic, or you didn’t have the closure that you wanted, but still now sitting here in this moment, you can say these words. Everything resolves to gratitude because you are grateful for where you are today, even if you’re not in the best place that you think you could be. But at this moment, this very moment you’re hearing my voice, you can self-reflect and realize that everything has brought you to where you are today, and that you’re grateful for it. So I continue to practice this. I let go and let God. I know those are that’s an easy thing for people to say, but if we really practice that and we work on practicing that every day, in every situation, I believe we’ll be the better for it. I remember the word trust dropping into my mind when I walked out of the hospital. The night of it was nighttime by the time I walked out from being there the whole day with Richard when he had a stroke in October of 2022.

But that surreal time in our lives supremely highlighted for me that Omniscience, an Ever-Living, Ever-Conscious, Ever-Expanding, Ever-Pulsing, Ever-BEing… Energy… Nothing (no thing) happens outside of Omniscience because Omniscience knows everything, and hears everything, and sees everything, and feels everything, experiencing everything we do. We may, as I’ve said before here in this blog–we’re fractals of omniscience, so we may even be forming God because through our very eyes we’re seeing all the different aspects of the world and creation that perhaps God doesn’t see otherwise. I don’t know, but I sort of like to think about it like that. Like how many people there are on the planet-8 billion, so those are 8 billion pairs of eyes that God’s looking through all the time! Thus, WE are ALL enveloped by Omniscience. And WE are ALL so LOVED!!

Knowing, just believing in an Omniscience Presence can help us FLOAT on water! It can lift us out of despair and grant us HOPE for tomorrow! Think about that NOW if you’ve recently experienced loss.

Even after my dad passed away unexpectedly, (yet, he was the picture of health, by the way, not overweight, walked miles every day, but he had lived in deep grief over the loss of my mom, his wife of nearly 60 years). Mom had just passed away 21 months before Dad passed, so my husband still believes that that my dad died of a broken heart. He died deep in grief. I wish I could have helped him in some way, bring him out of that. But again, you know, nobody’s perfect. We’re not perfect. We, even if we feel bad about it later, that’s again a waste of time.

A year or two after my dad passed, my first cousin Greg passed, and then, and I had reason to suspect hospital negligence, but I don’t know. I will never know, as he had several issues going on at once. Then a few months, after Greg passed, his brother was killed. His brother Josh passed after being murdered in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. While on a mini vacation with his family. It had been Josh’s birthday. He took his wife and son to the beach, drove to South Carolina from West Virginia, and was murdered on their last night there. They would have been leaving and out of town in just a few hours, but somebody had to come upon his path, and an altercation took place. Whether it was verbal yelling back and forth initially or a setup (as I suspect), nobody really knows. But cameras did catch the event, so police knew exactly who murdered him. And yes, our family was shocked, angry, sad-all the emotions you can imagine. Plus, it took years, and I blame the government of South Carolina for this. But it took years to get his murderer to trial and eventually put in prison. The state of South Carolina let that animal walk the streets all that time on $8500 bond! Unforgivable and ludicrous!) Though, like I said, police knew exactly who killed Josh at the time. The wheels of justice turned ridiculously slow, if at all. Even after all of this, some have wondered how I’ve found peace, and how, considering these turn of events, I can breathe easy and sleep well, even in spite of overthinking some nights. I think it’s because I love my family forward and back.

I know that love truly does conquer all, and in multitudinous ways, I know because I’ve glimpsed it. We are not alone, and we are all connected. I know I’m connected to my ancestors and relatives via the blood that runs through my veins. I kiss my hand. I blow them kisses often throughout each day. We’re also connected via Spirit. Perhaps the Spirit is Omniscience. I don’t know. And I am fine sitting in the “I don’t know” because that’s the mystery of it all-mystery of life and the afterlife. And so the circle goes.

You know Russell Brand; video book review of his book, How to Become a Christian in 7 Days

Reading How to Become a Christian in 7 Days by Russell Brand is exactly the uproarious romp I thought it might be! It contains loads of addiction recovery prompts, biblical quotes and stories, as well as Russel’s personal (and deep) shares from his own periods of self reflection. I can’t say enough good things about the book already, though I am only about 2/3 of the way through it.

How to Become a Christian in 7 Days* –Russell Brand

As to why I chose to read this book, well, we’ve watched Russell Brand for years, and I thought, “I gotta know how God got hold of him”! And he answers that and so much more in the book (and yes, he even talks a bit about Katy Perry and some Hollyweird stuff).

Here’s where you can watch/listen to my video book review: https://youtu.be/lPFz1U4X02s?si=c1hSjtudVjWw5Kfg

I also updated a previous blog post: https://sheilamurrey.net/2023/09/08/my-spirituality/ with the fact that I re-committed my life back to Christ Jesus in 2025. I really felt drawn back to Christ after spiraling down the rabbit hole of conspiracy theories, after friends (many Leftists) abandoned us after Richard’s stroke in October 2022 (in Florida), and after Charlie Kirk was murdered. Yes, I was also witnessing many people, including Russell, commit their lives to Christ as well, and all of it combined to show me that I’d lost the friend I’d had in Jesus (to quote a beloved song).

Ultimately, yes I still write and speak of Omniscience God (see this previous post too): https://sheilamurrey.net/2014/01/19/why-do-i-censor-or-limit-myself-god-is-just-be/ but I consider Christ Jesus my savior and shepherd.

If any of my words trigger you, it’s because there’s a wounded or fragmented part of you that is calling out for healing. And remember this is my journey and my truth that I speak of and none of it may apply to you–I seek no human’s approval.

Podcast with Julia AnchorHaven; the Falling Consciously Online Conference in September; More on DMSO

Did you catch my YouTube podcast with Julia AnchorHaven? Julia did a sound healing on me that helped me a LOT! Here’s the link to watch: https://www.youtube.com/live/NkqKRieZUpA?si=Ri5UZWbQ_VKERMRs

During our conversation, we promoted Gina Virginia Casella’s new Fall conference that’s coming September 19th, 2026. I hope you’ll sign up to get more information about it and consider purchasing a ticket ($60 Canadian). Here’s the link: https://buymeacoffee.com/ginavirginiacasella/extras

Falling Consciously Saturday September 19th, 2026 Gina Virginia Casella Online Conference.

Be sure to order the Falling Consciously September 19th Conference ticket (as the December Conference ticket is available via that same link). Use my code at check out, SHEMUR to save a bit and funnel a bit to me too. Please and thank you!

I’m not going to be speaking at the conference this time, I gave the keynote speech last time (which is also available via that same link and it’s free to watch that if you’d like). But I am offering two new songs for this Falling Consciously conference and I’m working on the videos for those now. I’m really excited to share those!

My sleep really improved after the sound healing Julia did, and a few minutes of shiatsu massage from the new massage pillow that arrived. Woo-hoo! I could actually feel a bone slipping back into place during that massage! I guess that must have been the issue, because now, I am mostly only sore in my back from it having been out of place for the last two weeks! The shoulder/arm nerve pain is greatly reduced today. The nerve tonic from Florida is still its way (and the DMSO gel, plus another kind of patch, and that will be good for it/when this situation happens again. I would rather have all the potential solutions here at my disposal than wait until I am in paid again to order them!

About DMSO

Debra asked what DMSO is, so I wanted to answer her and offer the doctor’s information whom I took a few classes with a while back. DMSO (dimethyl sulfoxide) is a clear, sulfur-containing liquid chemical made as a byproduct of making paper. It is a strong solvent that mixes well with water and can pass quickly through human skin. It is used in biology labs to freeze and protect cells, tissues, and stem cells from ice damage and in hospitals to treat a painful bladder condition called interstitial cystitis. It is FDA approved as a prescription bladder wash (RIMSO-50). DMSO has been explored and used off-label or in alternative medicine as a topical treatment for muscle and joint pain, though safety and effectiveness for unapproved uses vary, and education and care must be taken when using topically, as DMSO can carry other chemicals or toxins through the skin along with it, and may cause skin irritation, garlic-like breath, or a bad taste in the mouth.

A sailboat watercolor and oil pastel sketch; new podcast dropped this morning; DMSO

I began a sketch yesterday, but didn’t finish it until today (Tuesday’s are our busy day around here, picking up groceries and running errands). I’m fairly pleased with it, but always feel I could do better. I think for me, right now, it’s getting the sizing correct. For instance, I think I got the line between the water and the sky right, and the size of the sailboat. But the white watercolor paint doesn’t do anything on the page, so typically, for anything white I leave it alone and let the paper shine through. This time though, I tried to make the circle of the sun bright yellow. I wish I had left paint off that circle so the white would have shown through. Oh well, at least I’m learning to let go of the need to “get it right.”

This artwork is one of my husband’s 100+ framed paintings collection–and it’s always been a favorite of mine.

At this point, I’m down to my last 100 old blog posts to update with a new URL link, so that project is going well.

But wait, there’s more! Haha! Early this morning I did a Live YouTube podcast with Julia AnchorHaven that went really well! I am still in pain too, and almost felt I should cancel, but I am so glad I persevered because right from the start Julia did a sound healing on me that I think helped me a LOT! I told her later, this was a priceless conversation! I also got to try reframing a couple of stories too, and so I feel better talking about some otherwise powerful subject matter.

Here’s the link to watch: https://www.youtube.com/live/NkqKRieZUpA?si=Ri5UZWbQ_VKERMRs

That conversation was to promote Gina Virginia Casella’s new Fall conference. And yes, I’ll write about post all about that (probably tomorrow). I think it’s really going to be an amazing conference and I’m looking forward to it! All men this time (as speakers), and I am offering two new songs.

I’m continuing to sleep better each night, though still dealing with the shoulder/arm/back pain. The nerve tonic from Florida is on its way (and the DMSO gel, plus I ordered yet another kind of patch–why not?) and so, all of that feels exciting too! Plus, I ordered a new massage pillow kind of thing too. And this is what happens when I am in pain, I reach for everything and anything to find relief. Ugh.

FYI: Debra asked what DMSO is, so I wanted to answer her and offer the doctor’s information whom I took a few classes with a while back. DMSO (dimethyl sulfoxide) is a clear, sulfur-containing liquid chemical made as a byproduct of making paper. It is a strong solvent that mixes well with water and can pass quickly through human skin.

About that duplex going up across the street

I know I haven’t written about it in many moons, but that duplex that was supposed to be built across the street from us, is finally going up or in.

While we were at the lake on vacation those few days, when we got home, they had the foundation in, and had been making excellent progress.

Foundation on June 25th, 2026. –Sheila Murrey
By July 16th, 2026 the duplex was starting to get framed up. –Sheila Murrey
You can kind of see how large the lot is in this photo. –Sheila Murrey

You probably don’t remember what the empty lot looked like, but I shared a picture of it in my September 28th article: https://sheilamurrey.net/2024/09/28/september-28th-forgettable/

My husband is usually the ‘Gladys Kravitz’ (if you remember the reference from Bewitched), because from his music studio upstairs in our place, he has the bird’s eye view of the construction. And though it’s none of our business (of course), he lets me know (“Abner, Abner!”) when the work makes progress or stops.

And a couple weeks ago, we had all kinds of drama when the big truck came to deliver one of the modular pieces and as they began to line it up on the foundation, to their surprise, it didn’t fit! Ha! Turns out they’d put the foundation in backwards! So, after much wailing and gnashing of teeth, it was determined they could bring their non-English speaking crew back and do some actual sawing (think cut-n-paste) out of the concrete and pour new where needed to make it right. Whew! I wondered who got fired over that debacle… no idea.

1/4 of the four-part modular duplex going in across the street from us. Too bad the foundation was backwards so they had to send this back to an empty parking lot to wait until the foundation could be corrected. –Sheila Murrey
All four modular pieces are in and on the foundation. –Sheila Murrey

We don’t know if the owners who are putting in the duplex have a building contractor or not, but if they didn’t before, I bet they do now! My daughter has spoken to the owners a few times, and happened to be home the day of all the drama, but she didn’t ask that question. Hopefully, after all is said and done, we’ll get to meet the homeowners and hear more about it. Since my dad was a builder, and we built the home (mom and dad’s dream house) the last five years that I was a teenager, home-building is fascinating to me.

Here’s the current stage of construction:

The roof is now on the duplex. –Sheila Murrey

Playing, instead of “working a program”

The Problem with “programs.”

You read a self-help book, but don’t integrate the methods. You can’t “find time” to meditate. Therapy keeps you focused on the “problem.” So you still feel like life is happening to you instead of with you.

Here’s what nobody tells you: You don’t need more information. You need integration.

Check out this spiral map I did recently while working the Integrating the Spirals process for myself. It’s what I call a self reflective kind of life review process. Call it what you will, it can help you integrate things into your mind that you may have wondered about. Maybe you’ve asked yourself (or God), “Why did this or that event have to happen TO me?”

The example is now up on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1jeIWtUaLlE

Meet Your Spiral Sister

I’m Sheila Murrey—IT professional turned holistic health researcher, author, YouTuber, songwriter, and self-described, “Spiral Sister.”

I didn’t always have the answers. But I survived:

  • Two unhappy marriages before finding my twin flame husband (21+ years strong—yes, third marriages can work)
  • Years as a single mom raising two kids while working full-time and going to college after the first ex-husband left when our children were 5 and 7
  • Living with a 2nd ex-husband who fired a gun in my direction (I left. I forgave. I learned.)
  • Being laid off from a job I loved (2004) and rebuilding my career from scratch
  • A near-death asthma crisis (2005) that made me question everything conventional medicine told me
  • Being laid off again (2008) for five months at the Kennedy Space Center (and had to rebuild my career again!)
  • Selling our dream home in Titusville, FL (2010) after Obama ended the manned space program
  • Living in an RV with my husband for 11 years and moving all central Florida for contract work; the last 17 months of which we lived off the grid beginning a week prior to the COVID lockdowns of 2020
  • Caring for my darling husband when he suffered a stroke (Oct. 2022) after a hurricane knocked our power out for ten days, and while I continued to work full-time from home

Every single one of those experiences taught me the same thing: Everything has value. Everything resolves to gratitude. But I had to learn how to get there.

We DE-Program in Integrating the Spirals Method

The spiral process helps us become aware and understand that Life is always working out FOR us. Even when we don’t believe that could possibly be true, such as when bad things happen to good people!

Integrating the Spirals Method: What You’ll Get

I’ve codified 20+ years of epiphanies, synchronicities, and hard-won lessons into sessions that blends spirituality with science, music therapy, and practical daily practices.

Playing together we’ll:

Key #1: Honor Your Innermost Being & Ancestors

Move from living in struggle, fear, and shame to sharing your truth with a gratitude mindset. You’ll learn to:

  • Record and review yourself to spot emotional patterns
  • Meditate (or feel your pulse if meditation feels impossible)
  • Use music and sound therapy to access deep relaxation

Key #2: Perspective Shapes Beliefs

Let go of the need to be right and start feeling supported by the Universe. We’ll explore:

  • Kaleidoscope & Mirror Ball Multiple Perspectives Exploration (shadow work for sensitive types)
  • Why no one can see the whole picture at once–this is why we play with a spiral map!
  • How to stop judging your beginning against someone else’s years of practice (and judge less period, since we can never really know a person)

Key #3: WordPlay—Identify and Release Your Triggers

Identify your trigger words, and release the charge they have within you.

Bonus: Original Music Brain Stimulation

My darling husband Richard has written over 1400 original songs (we’ll play a portion of one each session) to help you grow new neural pathways, stimulate your creativity, and grow your “what’s possible” mindset.

Who This Is For

This program is for you if:

  • You’re currently triggered or emotionally charged by family conflicts, relationship drama, or news/social media
  • You feel torn apart, confused, or estranged from loved ones
  • You’re ready to stop people-pleasing and start feeling better in any situation
  • You want to retain emotional balance during intimidating, PTSD-triggering conversations.

Who This Is NOT For

This isn’t for you if you’ve decided:

  • Life has to be hard and a struggle
  • You enjoy suffering or the benefits of it or must “always be right”
  • You love to argue and “know everything”
  • You don’t feel you’re worthy of love or feel you can’t change your life

The Investment (And Why It’s Worth It)

4 transformational sessions: $181

Why $181? Because the Tao Te Ching has 81 verses, and in numerology, 181 reduces to 1—new beginnings.

Example of a life map; self reflecting tool to help one see that Life is always happening FOR us, even when we find that concept hard to believe. –Sheila Murrey

What you get:

  • Daily reminders via Messenger or text
  • 2 weekly group Zoom calls (groups of four or less)
  • Deep-dive WordPlay work (where Sheila listens to you and spots the words you use that are holding you back)
  • Kaleidoscope and mirrorball philosophy
  • Mini areas of focus and role-playing exercises
  • Access to a private, intimate mastermind-style group

Don’t think you can afford it? Message me. I’m offering a Pay What You Want option today because I don’t want to exclude anyone due to lack of funds.

What Makes This Different

  1. Science meets Spirituality: I blend mind-body strategies such as, Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT) with mobility exercises and dance.
  2. Art and Music Therapy: Drawing out the spiral on paper and mapping out your challenges and identified solutions, plus listening to original songs help build new neural pathways in the brain!
  3. Esoteric & Practical: People from all religious backgrounds welcome. We explore Holism, Omnism, and the mystical principle that you’re “never alone.”
  4. Real Talk: We’ve been scammed, even by people we had built relationships with. We still have to stay resolute, using wise discernment, or we can be tricked. We’re human and want to believe most people are inherently GOOD!

A Story That Changed Everything

My maternal grandmother taught me about the Cherokee “Trail of Tears”—the 1839 forced march where thousands died.

Only one of the five relocated tribes remembered what starvation felt like. Yet just 10 years later, the Choctaws sent food across the ocean to Ireland during the Great Hunger.

When people truly change, it shows up in their actions.

My grandmother never judged someone knocking on her door during the Great Depression of 1929 because she believed we might be “entertaining angels unaware.” That’s the energy I bring to this work.

Your Next Step

If any of this resonates—if you’re ready to ask a different question, feel from another perspective, and integrate what you learn so your cells remember—let’s talk.

Reach out to me:

I’m here to assist—not save. I’m one person, and I seek to play with earnest, hungry, seriously motivated individuals who are ready for soul growth and personal transformation.

We Are All Connected. Whether we like it or not. And our world needs us to be kind and compassionate—not out of fear, but out of true, unconditional love.

Final Thought

You can’t say the wrong thing to the right people. Think of your children, grandchildren, or beloved. You love them unconditionally. Now, let’s do that for ourselves.

Put your hand on your heart. Speak from your centered, balanced heart space in LOVE. The Universe always, in all ways, has your back.

❤️🦋🌀🎼☯️

Yours in consciousness-expansion as we evolve and revolve during our mystical awakening. All while doing-my-egoless-best, to take you on a limitless, spiraling thought ride to better health, through doing more with ease, to help us sustain the JOY in our lives! (With lots of Gratitude throughout.)

Sad little man Fauci

Del Bigtree said it best at the end of episode 487 on The Highwire, that Anthony Fauci chose (on the advice of his counsel) to sit there and plead the 5th and not be able to “talk, talk, talk” and “get his last word in” in his defense, while everyone else got to speak for/about him. And that was perhaps a “fate worse than death” for him. What do you think? I captured a few screenshots from the show, and here’s a link to the episode: https://thehighwire.com/watch/

Biden’s autopen 10-year pardon of Fauci –Credit to The Highwire

Before the end of the Highwire episode, Del also spoke with Serene Allison and her son Arden at what happened to him after getting dowsed with Roundup at work. What a miracle he survived! That story calmed me.

I’ve spent the last few days spewing on Facebook my opinion about Fauci’s Senate hearing nonsense, but after watching Del Bigtree today on the Highwire, I’m over it. And I’m here to state that for the record. Practicing what I teach.

We Are All Connected. Whether we like it or not. And our world needs us to be kind and compassionate—not out of fear, but out of true, unconditional love.

My new offer; want to play?

The Problem No One Wants to Admit

You’re exhausted. Not just tired—drained. The kind of exhaustion that comes from constantly managing other people’s emotions, walking on eggshells around family, or feeling triggered by every news headline and Facebook argument.

You’ve tried the self-help books. The meditation apps. The therapy. But you’re still stuck in the same cycles: people-pleasing, emotional reactivity, feeling like life is happening to you instead of with you.

Here’s what nobody tells you: You don’t need more information. You need integration.

Every single one of those experiences taught me the same thing: Everything has value. Everything resolves to gratitude. But I had to learn how to get there.

Why Traditional Approaches Fail

Most coaching, therapy, and self-help treats you like you’re broken and need fixing. They sell you one layer of the onion as the whole truth.

But you’re not one-dimensional. You are spirit, mind, body, and soul—and they all need to be addressed together. That’s what I call Total Metamorphosis: holistic practices for healing your body, transforming your mindset, and creating real success in your life!

The Integrating the Spirals Method: What You’ll Get

I’ve codified 20+ years of epiphanies, synchronicities, and hard-won lessons into sessions that blends spirituality with science, music therapy, and practical daily practices.

Here’s what we’ll do together:

Key #1: Honor Your Innermost Being & Ancestors

Move from living in struggle, fear, and shame to sharing your truth with a gratitude mindset. You’ll learn to:

  • Record and review yourself to spot emotional patterns
  • Meditate (or feel your pulse if meditation feels impossible)
  • Use music and sound therapy to access deep relaxation

Key #2: Perspective Shapes Beliefs

Let go of the need to be right and start feeling supported by the Universe. We’ll explore:

  • Kaleidoscope & Mirror Ball Multiple Perspectives Exploration (shadow work for sensitive types)
  • Why no one can see the whole picture at once
  • How to stop judging your beginning against someone else’s years of practice (and judge less period, since we can never really know a person)

Key #3: WordPlay—Clean Up Your Triggers

Identify the words that charge you emotionally (mask, facts, control, truth, liberty, God, etc.) and learn to reframe them so you don’t “fly off the handle.”

Bonus: Original Music Brain Stimulation

My darling husband Richard has written over 1400 original songs (we’ll play a portion of one each session) to help you grow new neural pathways, stimulate your creativity, and grow your “what’s possible” mindset.

Who This Is For

This program is for you if:

  • You’re currently triggered or emotionally charged by family conflicts, relationship drama, or news/social media
  • You feel torn apart, confused, or estranged from loved ones
  • You’re ready to stop people-pleasing and start feeling better in any situation
  • You want to retain emotional balance during intimidating, PTSD-triggering conversations.

Who This Is NOT For

This isn’t for you if you’ve decided:

  • Life has to be hard and a struggle
  • You enjoy suffering or the benefits of it or must “always be right”
  • You love to argue and “know everything”
  • You don’t feel you’re worthy of love or feel you can’t change your life

The Investment (And Why It’s Worth It)

4 transformational sessions: $181

Why $181? Because the Tao Te Ching has 81 verses, and in numerology, 181 reduces to 1—new beginnings.

What you get:

  • Daily reminders via Messenger or text
  • 2 weekly group Zoom calls (groups of four or less)
  • Deep-dive WordPlay work (where Sheila listens to you and spots the words you use that are holding you back)
  • Kaleidoscope and mirrorball philosophy
  • Mini areas of focus and role-playing exercises
  • Access to a private, intimate mastermind-style group

Don’t think you can afford it? Message me. I’m offering a Pay What You Want option today because I don’t want to exclude anyone due to lack of funds.

What Makes This Different

  1. Science meets Spirituality: I blend mind-body strategies such as, Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT) with mobility exercises and dance
  2. Music Therapy: Richard’s original compositions help build new neural pathways
  3. Esoteric & Practical: People from all religious backgrounds welcome. We explore Holism, Omnism, and the mystical principle that you’re “never alone.”
  4. Real Talk: I’ve unfriended people on Facebook. I’ve been triggered. I’m human. But I’ve learned to get my grip back—and so can you.

A Story That Changed Everything

My maternal grandmother taught me about the Cherokee “Trail of Tears”—the 1839 forced march where thousands died.

Only one of the five relocated tribes remembered what starvation felt like. Yet just 10 years later, the Choctaws sent food across the ocean to Ireland during the Great Hunger.

When people truly change, it shows up in their actions.

My grandmother never judged someone knocking on her door during the Great Depression of 1929 because she believed we might be “entertaining angels unaware.” That’s the energy I bring to this work.

Your Next Step

If any of this resonates—if you’re ready to ask a different question, feel from another perspective, and integrate what you learn so your cells remember—let’s talk.

Reach out to me:

I’m here to assist—not save. I’m one person, and I seek to play with earnest, hungry, seriously motivated individuals who are ready to dig into this “play” for soul growth and personal transformation.

We Are All Connected. Whether we like it or not. And our world needs us to be kind and compassionate—not out of fear, but out of true, unconditional love.

Final Thought

You can’t say the wrong thing to the right people. Think of your children, grandchildren, or beloved. You love them unconditionally. Now it’s time to do that for yourself.

Put your hand on your heart. Speak from your centered, balanced heart space in LOVE. The Universe always, in all ways, has your back.

An interview about We Are All Connected

During the Unity business group interview in July 2026, Sheila introduced herself by sharing a brief overview of her background. She is a mom, wife, grandmother of three, and has worked in a wide range of fields, including higher education, aviation, computer systems, admissions, business analysis, programming, systems analysis, and technical writing. Alongside that professional path, she has maintained a deep passion for holistic spirituality, Daoism, alternative health, energy medicine, and natural remedies.

She also enjoys singing and co-writing songs with her husband, who is a guitarist, bassist, and songwriter. Together they have created original work and videos for YouTube. Sheila has also written several books, which helped reconnect her with old friends and colleagues over the years.

The book, We Are All Connected: The How and The Why. An analytical mind searches for answers

The inspiration for the book, Sheila explained, came from a metaphysical experience in 2004. During the night, while on vacation and asleep beside her husband, she heard a deep male voice repeat the words, “We are all connected.” The phrase startled her because it was repeated twice, and she initially thought she might be dreaming. When she woke her husband, he told her she had probably just been dreaming, but the experience stayed with her.

From that moment on, Sheila said, her analytical mind took over. She began researching every possible angle surrounding the phrase: whether it was spiritual, psychological, or even some kind of unusual frequency or interference. Her background in electronics and radio made her think about signals, wavelengths, and transmission. Over time, her search expanded into deeper areas such as past-life regression, remote viewing, consciousness studies, and the work of the Monroe Institute.

She described the book as a wide-ranging exploration of connected consciousness. In Part One, she examines the origins of the idea, the unified field, the cosmos, the Earth, and the nature of frequency and physics. Her interest in these subjects was deepened by films like What the Bleep Do We Know? and by the work of thinkers such as Nassim Haramein.

Part Two focuses on life and the living matrix. Sheila said she has studied the work of Bruce Lipton, Joe Dispenza, and Greg Braden, and she regularly participates in a Zoom group with Bruce Lipton. In this section, she explores how the body’s cells respond to our thoughts and words, and how biology, the brain, mind, and consciousness all interact.

She also discussed spirituality, religion, philosophy, social structures, and technology. As a child, she used to wonder why different churches and religions seemed so divided, even when they all claimed a connection to God. That early curiosity shaped much of her later writing. She also includes discussion of the psyche, the afterlife, and the many ways human beings try to understand what lies beyond the physical world.

A major part of Sheila’s work has also involved grief, visitation, and experiences surrounding death. She volunteered with Dr. Raymond Moody, reading accounts of near-death and shared-death experiences sent in by others. This work deeply influenced her understanding of consciousness and survival after death. She also shared that she had personal experiences connected to the deaths of both of her parents, which further reinforced her sense that we are connected across different realms and states of being.

Sheila said that beyond the research to answer how and why those four words came to her, We Are All Connected (and everything that would become the book), she wanted to offer practical information. She included consciousness tools so that readers could apply the ideas in daily life rather than simply read about them. The book also covers more controversial subjects such as UFOs, secrets, cover-ups, and hidden forces, all framed within her larger theme of interconnectedness.

Dipping deeper

Sheila spoke about the role of ancestry and memory as well. Her mother had been a writer, though she was never published, and Sheila has continued working through her mother’s letters, notes, and ledger books. This process has been emotionally difficult, but it has also opened up new material and helped her move toward writing a screenplay. She hopes that even if she does not complete all of her creative goals in this lifetime, her grandchildren may one day continue the work.

Podcasting

When asked if she had ever considered podcasting, Sheila said she had thought about podcasting with her husband but did not yet have the equipment. One person suggested she appear on Next Level Soul, and Sheila appreciated the recommendation. Others present agreed that her work and perspective would fit well in that space. If you agree, please send comments to Next Level Soul that Sheila would make a great guest. Podcasters need to know people want to see the guests they bring on.

The host added that Sheila’s book was extremely comprehensive and that nearly every chapter connected some topic back to the central theme of human interconnectedness. He said that by the end of the book, a reader would come away strongly feeling that “we are all connected.”

Sheila agreed, saying that the book grew out of her own search for meaning. At first, she did not even think it would become a book. She simply wanted answers to the experience she had in 2004. She also said the work became more difficult because it was tied to personal and emotional material, including family relationships, childhood memories, and unresolved pain.

She spoke about how some people resist the idea of interconnectedness because they don’t want to be connected to certain kinds of people. For Sheila, that is part of why she believes she has been placed where she is now: to help repair relationships, soften judgment, and encourage people to see beyond division. She also discussed her background in West Virginia, her roots in American history, and her family connections to the Mayflower, the American Revolution, and the Daughters of the American Revolution.

Religious and spiritual themes

Her interest in religion and spirituality also comes from a lifelong habit of asking questions about why people believe different things. She said that after working for years in academic settings and technology, she learned the importance of context and audience. She wanted her books to cite sources carefully and give credit to the many researchers and teachers who influenced her.

She described herself as more of a bridge or connector than someone seeking attention or credit. Although she has been told she still has ego like everyone else, she said that for years she has tried to keep the focus on the information rather than on herself. She compared spiritual ideas to water: they must keep moving, connecting, and flowing, even if that means irritating people along the way.

She also described a program she created called Integrating the Spirals. In that work, she uses symbolic tools like a kaleidoscope and a mirror ball to help people look at their problems from different perspectives. The idea is that by turning the image, people can see new patterns, soften bias, and eventually expand awareness. In meditation, she said, one can go inside the mirror ball and become everything.

Choosing to believe in an afterlife

When asked which part of her research she loves most, Sheila said it is hard to choose because the topics are like children to her. Still, she admitted that her deepest interest is in God, omniscience, and spirituality. She said she has trouble relating to people who do not believe in some form of divine source or creator, though she recognizes that these are all belief systems.

She explained that she sees the unseen as just as real as the seen. While some people only accept what they can observe directly, Sheila believes that synchronicity, spirit, and invisible realities are central to understanding life. She also said that not everyone is ready for these ideas, and some people may need a future experience, or even another lifetime, before they can fully understand them.

The conversation shifted toward shared death experiences and the afterlife. Sheila explained that a shared death experience with her father met the parameters described by Dr. Raymond Moody, whereas the experience she had after her mother’s passing was more like a visitation. She said that these events helped shape her conviction that consciousness continues beyond physical life.

She also discussed the role of Christ, the cross, and religious symbolism in people’s lives. For some, these symbols function like a crutch or a structure that supports their spiritual identity. Sheila said she respects that, even if her own perspective is broader and more expansive. She believes that many spiritual experiences are interpreted through the lens of a person’s existing belief system.

In closing

The session closed with several participants thanking Sheila for her insights, her writing, and her openness. Many expressed interest in reading her book and exploring her blog further. Sheila thanked everyone warmly and said she appreciated the thoughtful conversation.
