I may have included too many screen captures in these two blog articles. If so, someone from the Better Way Conference can let me know and I’ll remove them. I tried to present what I thought was the most pressing information to share with a wider audience. It is my intention with these two articles, that more will become aware of the conference and subscribe to the Better Way initiative. (I’ve included a link in each image caption.)
Here’s some research I did after the conference on lithium:

Moves Method
In my YouTube channel, I encourage those “over 50” to:
Open to lifelong learning (observe, gently question, and loosen up pre-conceived beliefs, aka ‘Programming’)
Become more aware of our thoughts and emotions to encourage more ease
Loosen up and move our bodies (we’re stuck in our heads also due to our “Programming” and physically unhealthy)
And become strong and resilient in spirit, soul, mind, and body.
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.)

I started writing this post in JUNE! That’s how far behind I am on writing for my blog, though I have written several posts since. It’s just that I’ve been sooo focused on moving my body and getting out of pain that this two-part series took a back seat in priorities.
The first day of 2-Day Better Way Conference
I’ll simply say that this entire weekend I was immersed in the Better Way Conference via a virtual ticket. The conference was held in Rhode Island and I’d learned about it via Dr. Bruce Lipton (though he was not a presenter there). People I’ve followed for YEARS were involved and the incredible information learned, both from the speakers and insights that dropped into my mind while watching and listening will become a SERIES of blog articles, so stay tuned!
Holistic health information was shared, receipts proving studies and some of the former so-called conspiracy theories were brought front and center, and ways we can ALL work to find a better way through to resolve any health issues were discussed and debated. Shocker, NOT everyone agreed on EVERYTHING either. And that’s always true when it comes to health SCIENCE, but all ideas, perspectives, and philosophies were HONORED and RESPECTED and THAT’S why I LOVED this entire two-day conference and want to be more involved for the next ones… and there will be more as they are offering a FREE franchise!
Cece Doucette gave a fully researched presentation on toxicity in our environment and ways we can protect ourselves from it. She encourages us to quit using WiFi and hard wire every tech device we use (and yes, we can still plug a shielded ethernet cable into our incoming fiber optic cable internet box). –Cece Doucette https://www.linkedin.com/in/cecelia-doucette-09655155As always, I got heavily involved in the live group chat. I asked questions and offered advice. I learned early on in life, if you don’t participate in things like this, don’t complain later, i.e. “nobody told me.” If you can’t see what I wrote, that I am the anecdotal evidence, I will add it again next, I just wanted to first show you the chat window because this is how I have shared the word about my holistic health book (and my other books) in conferences such as this.This lady, Kim, asked me for the title of my book. And that’s how this sort of exchange works. Don’t lead with the name of your book, as that’s “selling” and most conferences don’t like to see that in the chat. By the way, I wrote her back and gave her the title, which is Have Yourself a Wholly Vibrant Life: Reversing Asthma and Other Chronic Illness Naturally (available on Amazon).Another presentation put a different light on the broad spectrum of negative impacts to human health. We learned about the Stardust agenda. We do NOT want to dim the sun to cool the planet. The “Decades of Evidence” went through the whole history of how our environment has been and is being manipulated and not for our better health! These were the key players noted and discussed in the presentation.So, just what IS in our skies? Check out the chart and do your own research if you’re skeptical. Dr. Lawrence B. Palevsky, MD gave a robust presentation on children’s health, and noted research and factual evidence. It was mind-boggling! I’ll leave you with a couple of his points, out of the many slides he showed.Root causes slide. –Dr. Lawrence B. Palevsky, MD Chronic health issues slide. –Dr. Lawrence B. Palevsky, MD Modern medicine slide. –Dr. Lawrence B. Palevsky, MD Acute Childhood Inflammatory Conditions slide. –Dr. Lawrence B. Palevsky, MDThis is why I believe the holistic health approach is better! Approach to Symptoms slide. –Dr. Lawrence B. Palevsky, MDAcute illness slide. –Dr. Lawrence B. Palevsky, MDThe way modern medicine treats acute inflammatory illness in children can set them up for/contribute to chronic inflammation. And this is what I believe happened to me and made the asthma I’d had from age 6 to my early 40’s worse! Treatment of acute inflammatory illness slide. –Dr. Lawrence B. Palevsky, MD
Stay tune for Part 2 of my conference notes and why I study and practice holistic health for myself and offer advice free-of-charge to others. I’m not practicing medicine by the way, I am an interfaith minister and am simply sharing information.

JIGGLE WIGGLE and mobility movement short videos
As I’ve written about (probably ad naseum at this point), I’ve been doing a series of exercises, Egoscue, some from our local personal trainer, Dr. Kristie Ennis, and now Vanja Moves Method, via her “toolkit.” I’ve been posting video shorts of these movements if you also feel you need to move more. I now realize movement every morning as soon as I wake up is NON NEGOTIABLE for me! I have come to understand that I hurt myself back in January (and then again a couple months ago) because I would go from sitting all day to dancing (sometimes kind of in a frenzy) and it was too much of a shock for my unconditioned and untrained body. Ouch! I also feel the vibration plate contributed, if not directly caused, my shoulder/arm nerve pain–though I followed their instructions and always used it on the lowest setting.
In my YouTube channel, I encourage those “over 50” to:
Open to lifelong learning (observe, gently question, and loosen up pre-conceived beliefs, aka ‘Programming’)
Become more aware of our thoughts and emotions to encourage more ease
Loosen up and move our bodies (we’re stuck in our heads also due to our “Programming” and physically unhealthy)
And become strong and resilient in spirit, soul, mind, and body.
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.)

I don’t really decorate for the holidays, but I did get a witchy hat recently, and I hung the Halloween skull outside the front door (image follows). Oh, and I bought some new little battery lights for the clay ghosts I made last year and moved them to the built-in next to our TV in the living room. I’m now humbly calling that whole built-in (which has three more shelves above what you see in the picture), our ‘ancestral wall’. That is with the exception of an old photo of ME that my dad always loved. It was one of the few items I got from my parent’s home after my mom passed in 2017. Richard loves the ghosts and has asked that I keep the light ON in both–even during the daytime. LOL

UFO channel
My book club leader turned us onto this YouTube channel (Area 52) several months ago, and I don’t think I’ve shared about it before. I love the set, and Richard loves the interviews! So, check this recent episode out, and see what you think of it: https://youtu.be/30aMHBQ1Avs?si=2o7LeUmtvda54gQK
Moves Method
NEWS! I have now lost 3 inches in my waist circumference! I’m thrilled that the daily movement, as well as eating more protein (mostly by consuming a cup of Greek yogurt daily), has given my metabolism a boost and encouraged my body to release the lard (as my friend Linda always says about her weight loss).
Here’s my most recent post about doing a horse stance and shoulder dislocates 30-Day challenge. Yes, I am attempting to maximize my time. And integrate mind-body, spirit and soul (I get some prayer/meditation time in while moving.)
Currently, only my Instagram and TikTok posts are tracked by Moves Method (for potential payment IF and when I accumulate a certain amount of views, and as of right now, I’m no where near enough views after two months of plugging away at these posts). But I am hopeful AND the potential helps fuel my motivation! Haha! Win-Win!
But I still share to Facebook and my YouTube channel as well, because why not! Eventually, I’ll earn some YouTube revenue. Right? Maybe!
Grabbed this from a Facebook post. I liked it. Maybe you will too. A list of things to say, even if you don’t go to church. –Hannah Williams posted though I don’t know if she’s the original author.One of my memes that I had to revisit this week after someone told me in a Facebook comment, “Shame on you.” I didn’t reply, pretending I didn’t see the comment. I don’t really know what that phrase is supposed to mean anyway, especially coming from someone who knows nothing about me other than I am giving Russell Brand the benefit of the doubt in regards to his trial. I understand a lot of women are up in arms about “no means no,” but since I wasn’t there, and neither were they, and he was quite admittedly under the influence of his addictions at the time (drugs, alcohol, and sex), and the accusers waited 20 years to bring a lawsuit, I am simply not going to grab a fire lit torch and start chanting to burn him at the stake. For God’s sake.

My daughter and granddaughter had an art class at the studio where my daughter works, and made these beautiful Halloween scenes out of fused glass. I knew at least a few of you would like them (Dawn and Linda!). Ha! I have not been sketching this week, as I’ve been trying to learn CapCut for making my Instagram/TikTok/Facebook/YouTube mobility videos to promote the Moves Method. I have been using Edits, and I’ve pretty much mastered it now. Thus, I thought I’d drive myself crazy by learning another new video editing too. Ugh! LOL

Dr. Greer’s Unacknowledged: An Expose of the World’s Greatest Secret, “We’re not alone. We never were.” speaks to the attempts of the emerging planetary culture to recover lost Indigenous knowledge. According to Greer (2006) in addressing the topic of universal peace, “We are in a cosmic moment. Humans today—albeit in classified programs—have the means to travel among the stars. So, we must evolve from a human oriented spirituality to genuine universal spirituality”

To wrap up this section, and to let you know, BOTH of the full length songs I created for the Falling Consciously conference are now on my YouTube channel. Here’s the first song, Dragon Dreamers: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=meZiT_1IQO0
I got through the corn maze just fine and didn’t even get winded! My son-in-law and daughter (both were still recuperating from a bug, he actually had pneumonia!) and the three of us completed the maze in 20 minutes–even with turning around a couple times! The three granddaughters went on their own and it took them 35 minutes longer to get out of the maze! Kids! I thought they’d beat us out. Nope!
Now, I don’t know how much weight I’ve lost, but I’m feeling so much better! I’m down almost 3 inches in my waist circumference now, so maybe I’ve released 20 pounds? I know all my clothes are looser than they were last year!

If you missed Gina Virginia Casella’s Fall “Falling Consciously” conference, then you missed my share of the two NEW SONGS! So, here’s a sneak peek. I’m still working on getting each full song on YouTube with its own video: https://youtu.be/vMYCMKNmNzk?si=ObOmNaBF3NwidhmL
I had an amazing time on the post conference wrap up (that Michael Kopf held on his channel a few days after Gina Virginia Casella’s Fall conference). I was ecstatic to be included in the lineup because I so enjoyed Daryl and Joshua’s presentations at the conference! Now, here I am speaking with Daryl James and Joshua Shapiro: https://www.youtube.com/live/0DiRaEOtxag?si=hOVkoutJ6PSJKP0o
Beach sketch
I continue, albeit slowly, to do some painted sketches of my husband’s artwork. I don’t have an art alcove like my dear soul artist friend, Linda Lewis of Creative Artworks blog… so I sit and sketch in stages in my recliner, usually while my husband is watching something on YouTube on our big screen TV. He will peek over at what I’m doing, but he’s good about waiting until I take a break to comment. And I’ve been quite pleasantly surprised that he’s so complimentary!
My husband, Richard Murrey, was a professional artist for over 40 years and an art director for a time for Sea World, Disney, and NASA, so I was kind of shy to start sketching. Thankfully, I persevered! I am now, using a smaller sketchpad, though that was my mistake when I ordered it, so I get to practice resizing each piece. Eventually, I may try my hand at sketching without using a model, or I will simply watercolor paint.
I begin with a pencil sketch, then use a marker to establish bold lines. –Richard Murrey artwork underneath, my sketch on top. –Sheila MurreyThis is how I sit to sketch; all my pens, pencils, and paints are in a rattan tote on the floor down beside my chair. My sketch is top left. –Sheila Murrey + The framed artwork on my lap. –Richard MurreyI finished the painted sketch with oil pastels and watercolor paints. I really wanted the water to flow, but when I saw some of the black marker bleeding into the paint, I dabbed it a bit and decided to stop. Richard said he thought the bleed over was fine. I don’t know though. I must be picky. –Sheila Murrey
Moves Method
I’ve been so humbly grateful that my Moves Method short videos have been taking off! Many now have over 1,000 views, on YouTube, as well as nearly that many on Instagram, Facebook, and TikTok. Of course, doing my own mobility training, recording some, learning how best to edit them and get them onto each of the platforms, has taken a fair amount of time, so I have not been keeping up with my reading (both blogs/books). And for that, I apologize. You know me though, I’ll spiral back around to read. And winter is coming!
I’ve got my tent sauna setup again after moving it to the other side of my upstairs spa room, so I’ll read while I’m in the sauna in the evenings. I have also been experimenting with new recipes and happy to say, I’m between 2.5 to 3 inches of waist size loss and my clothes are baggy on me now (I don’t weigh myself, so not sure how much weight I’ve lost). I am in love with the Moves Method though!
And yes, I get a little credit if you join using my link. But you want me for a training and accountability partner. You really do!

With the girls back in school, the temps dropping down to the 40’s at night now, and the trees in our back yard changing their leaves to red and orange hues, summer is over I guess. The ground is getting cooler too, so no more bare feet on the grass. I’ve been doing a few Moves Method videos on the back deck, and thinking about what winter will be like when it comes time to start getting in my sauna tent again. Happy the arm nerve pain is GONE (for a week now), I’ve been putting more emphasis on doing my body movements, than drawing, but here’s what I’ve done the last few days.
The Toucan sketch
I thought of my friend and soul sister, Linda Lewis of Creative Artworks blog, I think might be proud of me of attempting this sketch of one of my darling husband’s pieces of art: https://creativeartworksblog.com

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 one of the recent shorts: 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.
My friend, Maria, who often travels to Nepal has reached out to me and sent me a photo she found of myself and some of our friends (that she took back at one of her festivals in Florida). It was great to see this photo, though sadly, I’ve lost touch with all but one of the friends pictured. I will work my Integrating the Spiral process soon to release any negativity I continue to feel as I look at them. We did share some great days. And they meant a lot to me. I cropped them out (because I don’t have permission to share), but think I may use this pic of me in some upcoming stuff–though it’s several years old as of now. She really captured my heart though. Thanks, Maria!

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 too. Please and thank you!
Because of a last minute change in our Saturday schedule, Gina asked me if I could update the video where I share both of the new songs for the Falling Consciously conference. I did, and Richard even helped me by giving me four new/better graphic images (from AI). I had a technical glitch in the iMovie software that I use, so I had to nearly recreate the video. Whew! But it’s done and delivered to Gina as of last night.
Thus, I am SUPER EXCITED to share the songs (one minute of each) with you during the Saturday conference!! Full versions of both songs will be available at a later date on YouTube, but I really want to get your LIVE comments to the songs on Saturday! It’s going to be great fun!
Moves Method
The shoulder/arm nerve pain is GONE now, and I am sooo thankful! Yes, the situation healed, whether it was an impingement or ??? I don’t know, but I’m all better–back to NORMAL. I’ve also lost over TWO INCHES from my waist, and feeling so much stronger!
Here’s my two videos re: the Moves Method that I’ve been doing daily (yes, I was doing it even through the nerve pain I’d had–just focused on lower body moves). The first video is the work one can do BEFORE the deep squat, to strengthen the ankles.
And yes, I get a little credit if you join, but I DO really want you there with me.
Best Snack Recipe
I don’t know how I didn’t know how much protein Greek yogurt has in it, but I didn’t know, until NOW. And though I didn’t like yogurt much, unless it was loaded with sugar (fruit), I have been making this little recipe every day for more than a week and it’s turned into my favorite of all time!
Having been someone who could live on potato chips and French onion dip… and denied myself of that deliciousness for years because “potato chips and dip are fattening,” I’m here to tell you THIS totally replaces that as a snack but gives me the SAME delightful pleasure!
1/2 C organic Greek yogurt (I’m using is pictured next, Cabot Creamery)
1 T onion powder (more or less to suit your taste buds–EXPERIMENT!
1 T garlic powder
1/2 T Dill weed (this makes it as far as I concerned and I probably use more)
1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
pinch cayenne and pinch pink salt
Stir the yogurt and herbs all together well and add in slices/chunks of fresh cucumber, onion, cherry tomatoes, or any/all other veggies you like and have a go!

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
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!”

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 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. Going over the light brown pencil with black marker. –Sheila MurreyBarn sketch progress 2.0 here. You can still see the light brown pencil. Richard began complimenting me at this point. –Sheila MurreyCompleted 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 MurreyCompleted 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.

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.
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.
My husband’s original pen and ink barn artwork under glass. I sit with it on my lap and sketch pad next to it to attempt to get my sizing correct. –Sheila MurreyI’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/
Pineapple rinds in both a ceramic pitcher and glass jar. You have to keep it dark for it to ferment so my ceramic pitcher worked well, and I covered the glass jar. –Sheila MurreyMy bottled Tepache. –Sheila Murrey
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.

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.

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.

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).
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).
