Considering how the soul may reside in or out of the body (science has yet to prove where consciousness resides), yet connected to one’s spirit, God, Omniscience, and so forth, this category may include those, with a focus on the soul portion of one’s BEing.
I’m open to future speaking engagements now, and am reaching out to a few new ones, like the Next Level Soul Podcast. I’ll keep you all in the loop if I hear anything from the following. Of course if any of you are connected with them and can put in a good word for me, that would be lovely and highly appreciated!

This is the first post I commented on (my comment follows in the next image), on the Next Level Soul YouTube channel’s video:
This was my first comment on the Next Level Soul YouTube channel’s video, pertaining to the preceding post:

The story had to do with someone losing their 20-year old daughter to asthma, and that they didn’t know if they should share it or not. I felt compelled to share a personal story of our family friend (from years ago) to encourage and thank this dear heart for sharing their story, even though it was tragic and sad. I hope my comment was helpful. Reading it cold again now, I think I could have been more compassionate. –Sheila Murrey
FYI: The Zoom call with a Unity church business group was recorded, but not public. I am transcribing my portion of the call and will share that in another post. Stay tuned!

Spirit often shows up not as a dramatic apparition, but as subtle, everyday “glitches” in life that we rush past or rationalize away. Most people aren’t very aware that these moments can be spirit speaking in the only language it has: the language of energy, sensation, memory, and symbol.
When the World Pretends to Be Normal
We live in a world trained to explain everything with wires, drafts, bad memories, and coincidence. That’s not wrong—but it’s also not the whole story. Spirit doesn’t always need to be seen to be present. It often works through the small, strange things that make us pause for a second and then move on.
Below are the ways spirit shows itself to people without them knowing, based on your list and what many mediums, sensitives, and ordinary people report across cultures.
Screen capture: A daily quote re: “being watched.” –Tut.com
1. Electricity, Lights, and Electronics That “Act Up”
One of the most common but overlooked signs is disturbance in the electrical realm:
Lights flicker or go on/off at odd moments.
Electronics die suddenly, chargers stop working, or devices malfunction in ways that don’t match normal wear.
Radios, TVs, or phones change channels, volume, or playlists without anyone touching them.
Batteries drain unusually fast, or devices restart on their own.
Why this matters: Spirit is often described as energy-based, and electricity is the closest physical equivalent to that frequency. Many traditions and modern paranormal accounts suggest spirits can “pull” or “push” on electrical systems to make their presence known. It’s not always malicious; it can be a gentle nudge, like a tap on the shoulder made of current. This happened to my friend Alison and I after she bought a new car and we both got in at the same time. She said it only happened when any other high vibrational person entered the car and at no other time. The car wasn’t malfunctioning. It was simply aligning with the energies of the occupants.
2. Temperature Shifts and Sensations of Air
Sudden temperature changes are another classic, quiet signal:
A cold pocket of air in a warm room, or a warm spot in a cold hallway.
A rush of wind with no window open, especially when you’re alone.
In nature: a sudden pocket of warm water in a cold lake, or a strange warmth in an otherwise chilly environment. This happened to me while swimming with our granddaughters on our recent camping vacation to Maine.
A feeling of warm air wrapping around you while you’re grieving, even if no one is there.
These “cold spots” or “warm hugs” are reported so often in haunted-house accounts and mediumship that they’re considered a baseline sign of a presence. Spirit may not be able to hold a hand, but it can move air and change temperature.
3. Dreams That Feel Like Visits
Dreams are one of the most direct channels spirit uses, especially when we’re not consciously aware:
Vivid, “too real” dreams after a loved one has died—sometimes they speak, sometimes they simply are there. This is what happened when I felt I was visited by my mother after she passed in 2017. I wrote about the experience in Blue Eyes: Ethereal Messages of Connection.
Dreams where you feel physically touched, held, or guided.
Repeating dreams of a place or person that carry emotional weight long after you wake.
Many people dismiss these as “just dreams,” but sensitives often describe them as visitations: the dreamer’s mind is quiet enough for spirit to slip through more clearly. The dream may not announce itself as “this is a spirit,” but the feeling afterward—comfort, clarity, a sense of being loved—is the message.
4. Songs That Arrange Themselves
Music is a powerful carrier of memory and emotion, and spirit often uses it:
A song comes on the radio at the exact moment it means something to you—right after a thought, a memory, or a loss.
A song you haven’t heard for decades appears on TV or radio, especially one tied to a deceased person.
You arrive somewhere and a favorite song of a loved one is playing in the background, even if no one seems to have chosen it.
You wake in the morning with a song in your head that you haven’t heard in years, but it’s deeply meaningful. This used to happen to me quite often after my dad passed in 2019.
These aren’t always coincidences. Song can be a gentle way for spirit to say, “I’m here,” or “Remember this,” or “I loved you when this was our thing.”
5. Animals That Linger or Behave Oddly
Animals are often more sensitive to unseen presence than we are:
A bird, butterfly, or insect stays near you longer than usual, or seems to “choose” you.
A murder of crows appears out of nowhere, making noise as if to draw your attention.
A pet stares intently at an empty corner, barks at nothing, or refuses to go into a certain room.
Animals don’t rationalize the way we do and they interpret different bandwidths or frequencies than we do. If your dog suddenly acts alarmed in a specific spot, or a cat keeps staring at something you can’t see, that can be a quiet signal that something is present.
6. Thoughts That Don’t Feel Like Yours
Sometimes spirit speaks through the mind itself:
A thought you’ve never had before drops in, clear and specific.
Thoughts that pop in that you know are not your own—different tone, different vocabulary. You weren’t trying to figure anything out.
Hearing your deceased loved one’s voice in your head, saying something they would say.
A sudden “knowing” that reminds you of something your loved one enjoyed or that was meaningful to them.
This can feel like intuition, but it’s often more structured than normal intuition: a sentence, a memory, a phrase that lands with emotional weight. Many people later realize these thoughts were messages, not just random brain noise. This is what I believe happened to (for) me when I heard the deep male voice in the middle of the night say the phrase, We Are All Connected.
7. The Feeling of Being Watched or Not Alone
Even when no one is there, you can feel:
A presence next to you, like someone standing just out of sight.
An unsettling quiet awareness that you’re not alone.
A feeling of being watched, especially at night or in solitary moments.
This isn’t always scary. Sometimes it’s neutral or even comforting—a sense that someone is guarding, watching over, or simply near. Spirit often uses this sensation to create a moment of awareness, a pause where you might notice something else: a scent, a sound, a shift in mood.
8. Scent Without a Source
Olfactory signs are especially intimate, because smells tie directly to memory:
The scent of a loved one’s perfume, pipe smoke, coffee, or a specific food appears when no one is there and no one has been. When I smell cigarette smoke, I know it’s either my cousin Greg or his brother, Josh. Both passed within about a year of each other.
A fragrance that matches a person or place from your past, but has no physical source in the room.
These “odor miracles” are reported in church settings, homes, and hospitals worldwide. They’re often described as a gentle greeting: “I remember this,” or “I’m here with you.”
9. Extra Ways Spirit Can Show Up
Beyond the eight items previously listed, there are other subtle signs many people overlook:
Objects moving or appearing/disappearing: Keys, jewelry, or small items shift positions, vanish, or reappear in odd places. Native Americans attribute these occurrences to the “trickster.”
Clocks stopping or resetting: Digital clocks flicker, stop at the same time, or analog clocks seem to pause. Many people look at a clock to check the time and notice it’s 11:11, 1:11, 4:44, or such. These are often called, angel numbers. When we observe these we acknowledge the angels and say, “Angels all around you.”
Symbols: You’re guided to a particular charm, crystal, or pendant–either via a friend, or it catches your eye. It’s meant for you and is a wink from the Universe, or gift from a loved one who has passed. This is how I was guided to the Irish triple spiral of Newgrange that I wear on my mother’s gold chain. I never take it off.
Emotional shifts: A sudden wave of calm, grief, love, or peace that has no clear trigger.
Touch sensations: A brush on the arm, a gentle pressure, or a hand on the shoulder when alone. I’ve written previously many times of the GodBumps sensation I feel. It most often occurs when I in deep conversation with someone or listening to meaningful music or watching a profound movie. I believe they are my “yes” answer to whatever is going on or being said.
These are all ways spirit can say, “I’m here,” without needing to be seen.
Why We Don’t Notice
Most of us aren’t taught to look for spirit in the small things. We’re taught to:
Question everything.
Assume coincidence;
Believe or accept only what can be measured.
But spirit doesn’t need to be proven to be real. It just needs to be noticed. The more you pay attention to the quiet signs—the flicker, the cold spot, the song, the scent—you begin to recognize a pattern: we are not as alone as it sometimes feels.
How to Start Listening
If you’d like to become more aware:
Pause at the strange small things. When something odd happens, don’t immediately dismiss it. Ask: “What if this is a message?”
Keep a simple journal. Note date, time, what happened, and your feeling. Patterns often appear over weeks.
Talk to spirit gently. You can say, “If you’re here, show me in a small way,” and then notice what follows.
Trust your feelings. The emotional tone after an event—comfort, love, peace—is often the real message, not the event itself.
Spirit doesn’t always shout. It whispers in flickering lights, sudden warmth, songs that arrive at the right time, and thoughts that don’t feel like yours. When we learn to listen, we may find that the unseen world has been speaking to us all along, quietly, patiently, and kindly.
Remember: God is love. A love much more vast and profound than any of us have eyes to see or ears to hear, yet. Wait.
Amen. Namaste. OM

So many times I see people comment on Facebook or other social media, “I’m sorry for your loss” after someone dies. That phrase has always rung hollow to me. I am sure many people just don’t know what to say, and want to express their condolences. But it’s not really true. It would be more true to say, I’m sorry for the grief you’re experiencing (or will experience). I’m sorry that you may experience loneliness, sadness, emptiness, or such. I’m sorry that we always experience the loss of the routine we had with the person (or the pet).
Think of it this way, when your dog dies, you’ll have those periods of time throughout your days when you used to play with them, walk them, feed them, etc. and after they are gone, you suddenly find yourself trying to fill that space of time! That’s what loss feels like. And sometimes we experience emotional turmoil too, like mad that the person left us, and then we feel guilty for feeling that way! There’s such a range of emotions that a person can feel after someone “crosses over” to the Other Side.
Thus, maybe it would be more honest for me to say, “I’m not as sorry for your loss as I am sorry for the many phases of grief you will experience. And I hope you will reach out to me, even if you just want someone to lend an ear and keep your thoughts confidential.”
I told John I love these poems, and if I was remiss, he knows it now. Often beautiful poems help us say things we might otherwise struggle to find the words to express our feelings. My mission is to help people know they are never truly alone. And that mission is near and dear to my heart. Thinking of that, this poem hits me in the feels as well: https://therealistjuggernaut.com/2024/04/12/echoes-in-the-dark/
Why?
I lost an aunt and a husband of a dear family friend to suicide.
Then fast forward many years, I struggled with a dark night of the soul and the spirit of suicide tempted me to take my own life too! Prayer brought me out of it.
As most in my circle know, we lost David Wilcock to the Other Side several days ago, purportedly from taking his own life. While that seems unfathomable to many of us, only David knew what he was personally experiencing in his life. I share this link to honor the man, and soul he was while on this planet in this lifetime: https://www.youtube.com/live/VbXvRyKeWp8?si=dOnA8Zv_ijOGaHHb
I will also continue to ask for prayers and loving vibes to be sent along to our author friend and blogger pal, Michael in the UK (https://peacefulrampage.wordpress.com) for his family too.
I know how suddenly death can impact each of our lives. I also know there’s something vast on the Other Side. Not only because of the visitations I’ve had from my sister, Christina, and from my beautiful mother after she crossed over to the Grand Beyond. But also, because I was awakened in the middle of the night with a strong male voice telling me (twice!) the words, We Are All Connected. The subject of my 5th book.

As I wrote in my book, Blue Eyes: Ethereal Messages of Connection, chapters 6 and 11, I present information regarding connecting points and sacred lessons when I meet a person who has blue eyes. The whole book actually explains the first steps I took along a metaphysical path, but for those who haven’t read it, I’ll jump to the part that most influences my daily life.
The “blue eyes” thing guides me on a near daily basis because of the metaphysical experience I had while in the deeply relaxed state of hypnosis. Though I’d went for a hypnosis session as a birthday gift to myself with a goal of releasing excess weight on my body, I got a whole lot more out of it, including an introduction to my “less than day-old sister,” Christina, whom I’d been searching for my whole life–up to that point in time. (I’m an only child out of the six pregnancies my mom had.)
Long after that hypnotherapy session, the words Christina gave me, return to me when I’m talking with or listening to a blue-eyed person–especially on any deep subjects or profound wisdom. She’d told me she would speak to me through such people, and because she said that, I definitely perk up and listen more intently to blue-eyed persons, though of course, I listen to people who possess other eye colors too.
There are a few people who I’ve began following recently (with blue eyes) who stand out though, and one of those is Mikki Willis.
What I get out of online groups
Most recently, in a Mikki Willis group called, Decoding the Narrative, I met a lady named, Zen. And I’m writing this because, as you may have guessed, Zen also has blue eyes!
Our latest call was of an interview/conversation between Mikki and Zen Cryar DeBrucke and her idea of an Internal Guidance System, with many of us participating adding in the chat about our own physical sensations like tightness, tingling, breath shifts, or relaxation as we reflected on what Zen was explaining (“closed” versus “open” states). The conversation connected around the discussion to spiritual discernment, pattern interrupts, EFT, Abraham-Hicks, compassion, truth, and the importance of stillness, journaling, and choosing love over fear.
Several people shared personal stories and insights about intuition, faith, and guidance, including comparisons to the Holy Ghost, gut feelings, and the need to quiet the mind to hear inner wisdom. Others discussed broader themes like propaganda, division in society, truth, and the value of having another person help balance one’s perspective.
The conversation also included practical follow-up details: Zen Cryar DeBrucke was identified by name, her website and podcast links were shared, and participants exchanged greetings from many locations around the world.
I’m interested to know if any of her podcasts resonate with you! I was trying to listen to her, Life happens in a Spiral, episode 3 today, but it kept showing me a message that the episode was not on SoundCloud. Maybe some of you can check and see if you can hear her podcast episodes. I sent a message to her via her website form, so we’ll see what the issue is. As I really would like to promote her podcasts! (I clicked on a few more and got the same error message.)
In my Dr. Bruce Lipton online group, I met another soulie sister, she doesn’t have blue eyes (at least I don’t think she does), but I align with her on many topics and she does a podcast on YouTube and has invited me to participate on it! I’m stoked! So, stay tuned and I’ll be writing more about that soon. Her name is Gina Virginia Casella and you can find her on YouTube at: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nzxa74uBP0k&list=PLVFj1n_d5fHweqjufWJIS4y2Ph3DZgDSo&index=9 and Bruce’s nephew, Alex Lipton has also been a presenter on Gina’s show and here’s a link to his lively and very informative episode: https://youtu.be/Ki1Zulz13n0?si=oK-CbwIijkYzRGzK
Lastly, for my science minded readers, I just read this (else it would have been in my new book) from the Institute of Noetic Sciences (IONS) and it focuses on the science of this beautiful living universe of which, we are all a part: https://noetic.org/blog/unitive-science-of-a-living-universe/

In my new book,We Are All Connected: The How and The Why we take a look at a profound mystery—how could I have heard words spoken in the middle of the night when everyone was asleep: “We are all connected.” But also, it seems as mystical that people can read other’s minds. And we know that is true because of government programs like MK Ultra. We also know that thoughts, or at least brain waves (brain activity) can be read OUTSIDE of a human skull. A magnetoencephalograph proves it.
Yes, as I wrote in my book, I am fascinated by the magnetoencephalograph, ever since first hearing of it from Dr. Bruce Lipton on one of our monthly zoom calls.
I asked Perplexity.ai “Tell me more about the convergence of science between the magnetoencephelograph and reading human thoughts” and here’s what I found out:
The convergence is real, but it is still decoding brain signals, not literally reading thoughts in a mind-to-mind sense. MEG helps because it measures brain activity with millisecond timing, and recent AI methods are using those signals to reconstruct words, sentences, or the gist of a person’s experience with increasing accuracy.
What MEG contributes
MEG, or magnetoencephalography, records tiny magnetic fields produced by neural activity outside the head, which makes it useful for studying fast language and cognition processes. Its biggest advantage in thought-decoding research is temporal precision: it can track how representations unfold moment by moment, even if it is less spatially exact than fMRI.
How “thought reading” works
In practice, researchers train machine-learning models on a person’s brain data while that person listens, reads, types, or imagines language. The model then learns statistical links between brain patterns and intended words, visual concepts, or sentence structure, which lets it reconstruct a likely text or meaning output.
Where the convergence is strongest
The strongest overlap between MEG and thought-decoding is in language, inner speech, reading, and visual imagery. Recent work reports that MEG can support decoding of sentences typed by participants and that brain activity contains dynamic language codes that help separate letters, syllables, and words over time.
Limits and cautions
This is not general-purpose mind reading. The systems are usually personalized, work best when the participant cooperates, and depend on training data from the same person or task; they also still make errors and do not capture private thoughts reliably outside controlled experiments.
Why it matters
The scientific convergence is between neuroscience, signal processing, and AI. That combination could eventually help people with paralysis, ALS, or speech loss communicate, while also raising serious privacy questions about neural data and consent.
A simple way to think about it is this: MEG is like a very fast microphone for brain timing, and AI is the translator trying to infer the words behind the signal. The microphone is impressive, but the translation is still probabilistic, not omniscient.
Meme: I am Infinite Awareness; a Fractal of Omniscience. And so are YOU. We Are All Connected. –Sheila Murrey
It’s not all Woo anymore!
If you get what I’m suggesting in this blog post and even understand what a magnetoencephalograph does, even just a bit—you’re already in alignment with quantum physics. Yes, indeed, we already live in a world of modern research that proves we live within a vast, vibrating field of frequencies and forces that tie galaxies together and shape every cell in your body. What ancient mystics called oneness, scientists now describe as entanglement and coherence. I’m simply here to bring this message out to the forefront.
Everything is Spiritual
My exploration is not only scientific—it’s deeply personal. I believe we can reclaim our sovereignty and cultivate self‑love, along with love for others, when we strengthen and open our hearts and minds for authentic connection.
If you’re into scientists and authors such as Bruce Lipton, Gregg Braden, Joe Dispenza, Neale Donald Walsch, Nassim Haramein, Donna Eden, Barbara Brennan, Raymond Moody, or William Peters, you’ll find (like I have) that the “woo” quickly becomes “wow” when you dig deep.
Look at it this way, the “woo” is simply shorthand for wonder. The wonder of realizing that our thoughts matter. That fear, bias, and self‑doubt can cloud our inner mirror. And that when we polish that mirror of Self—when we love ourselves enough to shine—we add clarity and brilliance to the collective diamond that is humanity. It really isn’t any wonder that the first song my husband and I wrote (while we were dating long distance over twenty years ago) is called, Wonderin’. (See the video of us performing it live on the home page of this blog site.)
I invite you to read my new book
If you’ve ever felt something stir inside you at the sight of a starry sky, or sensed a connection you couldn’t explain, then you’ve already touched the essence of “We are all connected.”
Ask yourself: How woo‑woo are you willing to be if it helps you remember that you’re never alone, always part of one breathing, beating universe?
Because maybe woo‑woo isn’t fringe—it’s the invitation for us to wonderagain.

So, though the title of this post is different than my previous, https://sheilamurrey.net/2026/04/13/a-cure-to-loneliness-a-new-purpose/, but it follows along the same snails path in that it seeks to explain where I’m at in this particular point in time, as per my church affiliation and spiritual philosophy (which includes my recent (2025) return to accepting the living Christ Jesus into my heart).
Robyn Openshaw, (thank you for asking) I’m technically still a member of the Reorganized church, which I talk about in the blog. (I’d sent Robyn my previous blog post, referred to and linked in the preceding paragraph, but she couldn’t open the link.) I don’t practice it though since it changed to Community of Christ. My uncle is a pastor of a branch that meets in a person’s home of the Remnant Church. Yes, it’s another faction, and took its doctrine from the original, with a prophet president of direct lineage to Smith.
I don’t follow the trends of LDS nor do I know about Michelle Stone. (I’ve since looked her up and apparently she’s been recently shut down by the LDS for speaking a bit too openly on her podcast.)
The blog article (same preceding link) details how one of the Remnant bishops teach apologetics. I’m comparing his teachings with what I learned from Wes Huff last year.
My spiritual philosophy
I follow and teach the snails path, which came to me since visiting Newgrange and Knowth in Ireland (twice) in 2019. No more dogma for me. Simply based on a knowing that expands gradually of Omniscience God, and observing the fractals of nature and musing about life’s mysteries. Acknowledging that the unseen exists. That every time we deprogram ourselves from one box, we find we’re in another. But the snails path of a never ending spiral prompts us onward. Curiously, I am walking the path with Christ Jesus again though, after getting burned by most of the “love and light” crowd (who are more judgmental and negative than the Christians I have known my whole life; Christians who never left my side while I ventured into New Age stuff). God is still good, all the time. ❤️🙏🤗
What Robyn asked me
When I’d written that reply to Robyn, I had thought I was answering a private Messenger message. Since it was shared to her Facebook page, I’ll won’t share it (I was going to), but I haven’t asked her permission so I will paraphrase,
“I can’t click the link you sent. Did you start a remnant LDS church or belong to one? I know the name of the Reorganized church changed. I want nothing to do with the origin church. Have you seen the trend among the LDS to deny that the leader practiced polygamy? I think some people need to belong to a church.”
Now, I didn’t rebut Robyn’s statement about Joseph Smith, Jr. and any ties of his to polygamy, but the origin church did not practice polygamy. Polygamy started after Brigham Young took a group of LDS members west. This is recorded in the Reorganized now, Community of Christ church history. Even Perplexity.ai had this to say,
“The Community of Christ, formerly the Reorganized Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, has historically denied that Joseph Smith, Jr. practiced polygamy, and it has taught that plural marriage was introduced later by Brigham Young and others. The historical record tied to that tradition therefore does mention the issue, but mainly as a point of disagreement and denial rather than as an affirmation of Smith’s polygamy.
Over time, some Community of Christ materials and related scholarship have acknowledged that the wider historical evidence supports Joseph Smith’s involvement in plural marriage, even though the church’s older official stance was rejection of that claim.”
Now, that last paragraph came from a site called, The Joseph Smith Papers: https://www.josephsmithpapers.org/intro/introduction-to-journals-volume-2 And in those papers I found this reference, which I presume is what Robyn is referring to, “Several later documents suggest that several women who were already married to other men were, like Marinda Hyde , married or sealed to Joseph Smith. Available evidence indicates that some of these apparent polygynous/polyandrous marriages took place during the years covered by this journal. At least three of the women reportedly involved in these marriages—Patty Bartlett Sessions , Ruth Vose Sayers, and Sylvia Porter Lyon —are mentioned in the journal, though in contexts very much removed from plural marriage. Even fewer sources are extant for these complex relationships than are available for Smith’s marriages to unmarried women, and Smith’s revelations are silent on them. Having surveyed the available sources, historian Richard L. Bushman concludes that these polyandrous marriages—and perhaps other plural marriages of Joseph Smith—were primarily a means of binding other families to his for the spiritual benefit and mutual salvation of all involved.”
Now, if my mother had known it was true that Joseph Smith, Jr. had been married to more than one wife, I believe mom would have left the church. This opens another rabbit hole for me to pursue, but one that I tend to doubt I will find an answer for until I reach the Grand Beyond. Thus my next post will answer another question that has come to me on the cult that Jack Parsons, the rocket maker, belonged to in the years leading up to his death. It will focus on his connection with L.Ron Hubbard too and the beginnings of NASA. So, hang on to your seats!
Now, do you see why I’m never sad or lonely? Who has time! I’ve got more rabbit holes to peruse than (to quote my mom) “Carter’s got liver pills”! Ha!

A short title, but long article today because as I sat in meditation regarding the question of ‘loneliness’ a list began to come to me, and I wanted to get that down on virtual paper. As well, or maybe to begin with, I recalled a saying that a preacher of mine, back when I used to attend a interdenominational church, used to say, “Loneliness isn’t a lack of people, but a lack of purpose.” He may have been a fraud, but I’ve held onto that message as a truism for over thirty years.
I attended that interdenominational church for about two years in the early 1990s (during a time when I had questioned the religion I’d been raised in).
The man whom I had lived with for a year and left, came back to me saying he’d “found Jesus” and that there was a church close to his house where we could attend and take my two children. Though I wasn’t sure I could trust him, I played along and attended that new church, as well as attend and teach some classes at some folks’ home where we had little home church meetings of my original church. My second ex-husband and I had that interdenominational preacher baptize us in the ocean together. And we married in that church. I had even enrolled my two children in that church’s private Christian school for a few months, which turned out to be a disaster. The whole marriage turned out to be a disaster too, but no need to go into that.
Perhaps needless to say, I never officially left my original church and that interdenominational church preacher ended up absconding with church monies and left the area with the church secretary. I’ve always wondered what happened to his beautiful wife and their children. Sad. Also, I hate to say it, but I’ve seen that kind of thing happen in all kinds of churches over the course of my life. That just happened to be the only one I’d ever put my personal time and money into! Let alone, my second ex-husband had never truly been “saved” either.
But daresay, I still believe “Loneliness isn’t a lack of people, but a lack of purpose.” If that was the one lesson I brought with me out of that debacle, maybe it was worth it.
Cure to loneliness
The short list to cure loneliness that dropped into my mind goes something like this:
Because even empty space is not actually empty, it is impossible for any of us to “be alone.”
We are loved by the creator of the universe more than we could possibly fathom.
While being in community feels good and each human has a drive to live and work in community, some of us can function well and enjoy a good life while living alone, as long as we have a strong sense of purpose.
When someone feels lonely, it is because they are focusing on an unmet need; humans often feel they need emotional support or physical touch from others.
Speaking of purpose, I never feel lonely not matter what is going on, because I have a laptop nearly full of writing topics that if I live another twenty years, I sincerely doubt I will get everything done I have on my list to do, much less books on the shelf to read, and an insatiable curiosity to learn more! Though yes, I know, the Bible says I don’t need to “lean on my own understanding.” But God gave me a brain too, so there’s that! Smiling.
Apologetics research
In addition, I wanted to introduce you to a term you may not have heard of before. That term is Apologetics. The definition I’ll go with comes from a teacher I have only recently begun to follow, and that is Bishop Josh Turner from The Remnant Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. The word may remind you quickly of the word, Apology, and there’s some truth to where we’re going with that. But per Wes Huff, who I credit in leading me back to Christ in 2025. And to clarify, I will say that while I lean not to dogma nor my conditioning (insofar that any of us can de-program ourselves of past conditioning, which is an ongoing process), I have used further study to bolster my faith in Christ Jesus. And this is what I refer to when I say Wes, “led me back” to Christ.
I’ll say that my Interfaith, New Thought, and Unity studies led me to people like Billy Carson and Russell Brand. There were others, many others, but for purposes of this article, I’ll name them simply because I would not have found Wes Huff had it not been for Billy Carson. And when Russell converted to Catholicism, I had to take a huge pause and sit with “What the heck is going on?” And I had to realize that perhaps I had been getting led astray, though my knowing that Omniscience God covers ALL wouldn’t let me go down a path, any path, that would cost me my soul. And beyond that, I knew from the metaphysical experiences I’d had that at any point, I could be rescued if rescuing was needed.
I spent several months going back over previous Billy Carson videos I’d watched and then exploring Aaron Abke and Wes Huff videos, not just the ones where they hashed stuff out, but also, some of their individual videos. I also became a member of 4DU (the online university of Aaron Abke’s where he offers a community–and I made some friends there, as well as, I paid for a couple of his classes, one being the Ontology of Christ). When I tell you I did a deep dive on this topic, let me assure you, I did!
My religious history involves a kind of convoluted story. I’m technically still a member of the Reorganized Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints (now known as the Community of Christ; I was baptized into it when I was 8 years of age), and my uncle is a pastor of the Remnant Church, which carries direct lineage from the original church that was organized by Joseph Smith Jr. in 1830. And the Remnant considers itself to be the “one true church” the same as the Reorganized church had. And the whole idea of any “one true church” is what caused me to leave and continue seeking, as in my heart and mind I feel anyone who truly follows Christ Jesus is a member of His church, and no human organization has the right to claim themselves as the “one true church.”
Additionally, I take issue with the fact that the Remnant church is headquartered near the Temple Lot in Independence, Missouri, which is directly across the street from the Independence Temple (that my mother, aunt, and grandmother all contributed money to during it’s building phase), that is now home of the Community of Christ (which, for whatever reason really annoys me). I know that’s TMI and confusing, but that’s what happens when someone, or a small faction within a church disagrees with some dogma and then splits off to form their own organization.
When I read that the Remnant Church maintains a belief in a geophysical Zion, I think that follows the original teaching from the time of Joseph Smith Jr., that Zion would be raised up on the earth in Independence, Missouri. For sure that empty Temple Lot was where it was prophesied would be the place where the final temple would be built. Thus, Zion would not be raised in any other country, especially NOT Israel. The Remnant church lists their foundational beliefs, as written by Joseph Smith Jr. on the Remnant Church’s website as “Our Epitome of Faith.”
About the church names, not that it may matter, but in the Reorganized Church of Latter Day Saints was, in the 1970s and 1980s was highly criticized by members within and is why the Remnant church split off from it. Some of the issues involved whether to allow women to hold priesthood status and to end the lineal succession doctrine concerning the prophet president, and when and where to build the Independence temple. My mom was okay with a few of the changes as presented, but when it came to women holding priesthood office, the lineal succession, and new name for the church–that’s where she drew the line. But we never got her church membership changed from the Community of Christ to the Remnant church, and that is something I would still like to do, especially when I get my membership changed.
A descendant of Joseph Smith, Jr. by April 2002, Frederick Niels Larsen was chosen as the President of the High Priesthood and prophet of the Remnant Church until his death on April 26, 2019. Following his death, Terry Wayne Patience became President of the High Priesthood/Prophet/President of the church on June 29, 2019 during a special conference of the church.

I’m encouraging those “over 50” to open to lifelong learning (observe, gently question, and loosen up their pre-conceived beliefs, aka ‘Programming’), become more aware of their thoughts and emotions to encourage more ease, loosen up and move their bodies (too many are stuck in their heads and physically unhealthy), become strong, and resilient in spirit, soul, mind, body. And to question EVERYTHING!

“How woo‑woo are you?” It’s a question that tends to make people smile, cringe, or lean in. Some wear the label proudly—crystals, moon charts, and oracle decks in hand—while others back away, insisting they stick only to “the facts.” But what if the line between science and spirituality isn’t as sharp as we think?
That’s where We Are All Connected: The How and The Why steps in. The book began with a midnight mystery—two words spoken aloud in an empty house: “We are all connected.” Those words sparked a twenty‑year quest into what that message truly means, from the cosmos to the human heart.
So, how woo‑woo are you really? Let’s find out.
Meme: I am Infinite Awareness; a Fractal of Omniscience. And so are YOU. We Are All Connected. –Sheila Murrey
Woo‑Woo Meets Physics
If you believe everything is energy, congratulations—you’re already in alignment with quantum physics. Modern research shows that we live within a vast, vibrating field of frequencies and forces that tie galaxies together and shape every cell in your body. What ancient mystics called oneness, scientists now describe as entanglement and coherence.
The “woo‑woo” mindset simply asks: If the entire universe is interconnected, what does that say about us? Every emotion, thought, and choice ripples outward through those unseen fields. In We Are All Connected, Sheila Murrey weaves together cosmology, biology, and noetic science to show that the human experience is both physical and profoundly energetic.
The Spiritual Side of Everyday Life
Murrey’s journey is not just scientific—it’s deeply personal. Healing codependency and reclaiming sovereignty became essential steps toward realizing that love and boundaries aren’t opposites. They’re two sides of the same coin. When we cultivate self‑love, we strengthen the heartspace that allows authentic connection.
This isn’t about escaping the human experience—it’s about fully inhabiting it. Meditation, hypnosis, and those uncanny synchronicities that show up when we least expect them aren’t fluff; they’re invitations to notice how life itself keeps proving that we’re part of something greater.
From Woo to Wow
Whether you’re drawn to Bruce Lipton’s biology, Nassim Haramein’s unified field theories, or Raymond Moody’s research on near‑death experiences, you’ll find that the “woo” quickly becomes “wow” once you trace it far enough. Modern technology, ancestry, sociology, and psychology all reveal invisible networks that link us to each other and to Omniscience itself.
So maybe “woo‑woo” is just shorthand for wonder. The wonder of realizing that our thoughts matter. That fear, bias, and self‑doubt can cloud our inner mirror. And that when we polish that mirror of Self—when we love ourselves enough to shine—we add clarity and brilliance to the collective diamond that is humanity.
The Invitation
If you’ve ever felt something stir inside you at the sight of a starry sky, or sensed a connection you couldn’t explain, then you’ve already touched the essence of “We are all connected.”
Ask yourself: How woo‑woo are you willing to be if it helps you remember that you’re never alone, always part of one breathing, beating universe?
Because maybe woo‑woo isn’t the fringe—it’s the bridge.

Do you know that’s what we’re doing here? Uncovering our souls? I mean, we do it in art and music. And in our blog writing and book writing. When I wrote in my book, Blue Eyes: Ethereal Messages of Connection and on this blog about feeling the GodBumps, that’s what it is! It’s the uncovering of my soul. It’s an alignment thing, I’m sure.
Here’s the three books I’m currently reading, actually, I am reading four, but the fourth is not a spiritual book and I’ll be doing a review on it in a separate post when I’ve finished it. But these three do align and challenge me in all the right and cool ways! I’m learning so much, uncovering my soul, and it feels like I’m amping my spirituality up a big notch–no ego in this when I say that either. I’m humbled throughout this process. Speaking of humbling…
Three spiritual books I’m reading currently, The Tibetan Book of Living and Dying, After Jesus Before Christianity, and Jesus Calling (a daily devotional) –Sheila Murrey
I pictured the books along with my daily journal that I write scriptures in to sing them back to myself, God, and Richard (when he’s in the room). I’m about a third of the way through all three books, and the Tibetan book is the one I’m studying with my Theosophy book club, so we get to discuss a lot of it–and that’s really cool.
Taking a bit of my own medicine
This morning I got a message from one of my Facebook friends, fellow blogger and book reader, who let me know that her new printed version of my new book was still not right. Ugh! Frustrated, I went back into Scrivener, checked it and made a couple of changes and attempted to upload it. But Kindle Direct Publishing would NOT accept it. And the twenty errors did NOT make sense to me. One was a font issue and the font it named was not a font I’ve EVER used, and there was no way for me to find it within Scrivener (that I know of). I was about ready to delete all twenty items, but one was the entire Table of Contents. I did end up deleting the ToC and adding it again, just to be sure. After about five uploads and the Previewer would NOT let me APPROVE it (the Approve button would not light up/activate for me to click), I reached out in a chat with KDP.
During the chat, my darling husband came downstairs and interrupted me wanting to go outside for a walk. Now, it’s 40 degrees out, but sunny and I had promised him that as long as it wasn’t snowing or raining, we’d walk. No matter how cold it is, though it is supposed to be 55 degrees this afternoon. I tried to get him to wait until this afternoon but he fussed (I do tease him that after his stroke, he’s my toddler), but alas, in my head I thought, “Just go for the walk, Sheila.” So, that’s what I did. Though I was over my eyeballs frustrated with Amazon. Okay?
We had a lovely walk, and when I came back in the house and opened the laptop up, I looked at the Amazon KDP screen again and noticed something that made me realize KDP had NOT actually uploaded my final document upload. So, I did the upload again and crossed my fingers. I went to the restroom and when I came back, TADA! The upload worked AND that Approve button lit up! So, I approved the upload and it accepted it! I hope to God this is the last time I ever have to touch Amazon KDP!
So, I had typed quite a bit of this former few paragraphs into a comment to a friend on her blog and no kidding, it wouldn’t take it! It showed me a message that my comment would not be posted. I think it was because I had to login again but in that moment, I couldn’t even process how much the Universe was showing me that when I’m aggravated it’s just simply not going to respond to me! Ha!
I took a break and came back and have now rekeyed it all into THIS post. We’ll see if WordPress will save it, or allow me to publish it. LOL
I’ve got a few new book ads out too, so if you’re following my YouTube channel or any of my other socials you’ll see them. Check out the book too, if you’re at all interested. Or pick up a copy for a woo-woo type friend. I would really appreciate it.

Sometimes the messages are going on all around us, but in ways most of us miss! We just do not have the ears to hear! Okay, so this time my title is a tad misleading because the metaphysical messages I’m going to be writing about aren’t from me (the analytical empath) but I didn’t want to give it away until I got into the article.
As I wrote in my book, Blue Eyes: Ethereal Messages of Connection my mom was the first to introduce me to trees, by way of her love for them. And after she passed/crossed over to the Grand Beyond, while walking with my dad along a side road to a campground near the hotel we were staying at, he began pointing to various trees, Ash, Elder, Oak, Hickory, and more. I was shocked! My dad was so well versed in trees, and I’d lived all my life with him and never known how knowledgeable he was about them! I then had a moment of realization that he and mom must have had loads of discussion about trees over the years that I’d simply missed, or ignored. Wow!
During the last few years, while researching for my fifth book, We Are All Connected: The How and The Why. An analytical mind searches for answers, I found more intriguing ideas about trees: how trees show off their fractal design patterns, how they connect with one another physically through their root systems and communicate with the mycelium network, as well as self-organize for efficiency, resilience, and ready themselves for change. Just think about how trees prepare for the winter! I wrote specifically about Redwood trees, my favorite, the Yew tree, and Banyan trees. There are so many wonders to continue to explore when it comes to trees, that I’m very glad we live in New England, so I can explore even more trees than we had in Florida!
Tree Messages
I saw this post on Facebook today about tree communication and simply had to share it in its entirety. I had known of a way to place a device on a tree and be able to listen to the sounds it conveys, but I had not heard of this specific study before! I’m always astounded when I come across a message, that’s as much about communication we can’t hear (without using sensitive technology) as the metaphysical messages we receive in a dream or ethereal encounter!
“Scientists just confirmed that trees actively communicate with each other using ultrasonic sound pulses — forests are engaged in continuous acoustic conversation at frequencies completely inaudible to human ears.
Researchers at the University of Florence used ultrasonic microphones sensitive to frequencies between 20 and 200 kilohertz — far above the 20 kilohertz limit of human hearing — to record communication between European beech trees in Tuscany’s Casentino Forest. Trees under drought stress emitted distinctive ultrasonic click patterns at 40-80 kilohertz that neighboring trees responded to within 6 hours by closing their stomata — the leaf pores that control water loss — before they themselves experienced any drought stress. The responding trees showed measurable physiological changes indicating they received and acted on the acoustic drought warning from their stressed neighbors.”
Screen capture: The original post from where the text comes from. If you’re on Facebook be sure to connect with it, Like it, and Comment. —FactFusion: Space & Science
“Physical mechanism analysis confirmed the clicks originate from microscopic cavitation events — tiny bubbles forming and collapsing in water-conducting xylem tissue as drought stress builds — which propagate through both the air and the soil, traveling up to 50 meters between trees. The signal pattern carries information about stress severity — trees under severe drought produce higher frequency clicks more rapidly than mildly stressed trees — suggesting the acoustic communication carries quantitative not merely binary warning information.
Scientists now describe forests not as collections of independent competing organisms but as acoustically connected communities actively sharing survival information in real time.”

As I wrote in my book, Blue Eyes: Ethereal Messages of Connection I wrote about how I had a visitation (I say, ‘visitation’ because it was more than a nighttime dream) about my mom and how she and I shared in a conversation after she passed away/crossed over to the Other Side of The Veil. I know it was real and that it was special, because so far, I’ve not experienced any other visitations like that! Yes, I had the surreal shared death experience within 24 hours of my dad’s passing/crossing over, but it was completely different and much shorter of an experience than the visitation I had with my mom.
And while at the time, I wasn’t so dogmatic in my religious views, I still had some and these experiences were mind-blowing and definitely reshaped my view of God, expanding it for sure! This is why I can say my multifaceted spirituality is like practicing a “religion without the need for training wheels.”
I’m a follower of IONS the Institute of Noetic Science, and of Shared Crossings. I have learned from sessions with IONS and with Shared Crossings that each of these encounters are often different. And while some share similarities, such as traveling down a tunnel towards a light source, in every other aspect they differ. That’s what makes the science so difficult, yet so thrilling and fascinating too!
The latest class from IONS was all about imagination. And yes, there are differences between imagination and creativity. They also discussed ways we can cultivate our imagination, and explained aphantasia and how some people who cannot visualize can dream because the visuals are held in the subconscious (which is what is working during dreamtime). It was a fascinating class/lecture and one I’d love everyone to see!
Here’s a few tidbits from the class lecture, Unlocking the Science of Imagination to Transform How You Think, Feel, and Live by Cassandra Vieten.

Scan the code. –IONSScreen capture: IONS now offers a database where we can research Spontaneous Remissions. –IONS
I’m very excited to peruse this database from IONS of all the many cases of reported Spontaneous Remission! I have heard of many incidents of spontaneous remission by people I’ve either known personally or whom friends have known, so I think this database will lend credence to its existence as a real phenomenon.
My takeaway
I’ve always believed the “truth lies somewhere between.” And after pursuing a rigorous degree at Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University back in the 1990s, I can tell you that there are different schools of thought on myriad subjects. And this is certainly one of them. The metaphysics and psychic phenomena surrounding spirituality and religious belief is one of the deepest rabbit holes we can explore. And one that I believe I’ll continue exploring for the rest of my life!
