January 28th – Waiting for the light

It’s January 28th, 2024; Enjoying the bluesy jazz of the saxophone (played by the incomparable, John Heinrich) on this original rock song that tells a story. Many thanks to my songwriter/guitarist husband, Richard Murrey, singer, Bubba Hudson, and producer, Steven Cooper from his Nashville, TN studio for creating such a powerful song.

Jazzy blues rock

Here’s the twenty-eighth new music post for 2024, as I consistently pump out original songs for you to groove to each day this year. This song offers a glimpse of what it’s like to lose a friend (in this life) and wait for the light. We cherish our memories. We look back on fun times–while living in the night. We hope we get to do all we need to do in this life before it’s our turn to wait for the light.

Friends from their first meeting

My husband, Richard Murrey, had a good friend named Kevin who passed years ago from a brain issue. They had been friends from their first meeting and had a lot in common–both artists. This was all years before I came into Richard’s life. He’s told me many times, even getting misty-eyed after his stroke, of all the fun times he and Kevin had. I can only imagine! After Richard and I met, I got to meet (via phone conversations) Kevin’s wife and brother. They both sounded like wonderful people and I am glad Richard has stayed in touch with them.

I always listen to this when I want the solace of bluesy jazz and want to recollect great times with good friends who have passed on. It lifts me up somehow. It gives me hope somehow that I may see my friend again one day (in the Grand Beyond). But let us know what you think of when you listen to this, okay?

Here’s a little something I found from a recent email from Shirley MacLaine, when I searched my hard drive about ‘waiting for the light’. I’ve followed Shirley MacLaine (whom I subscribe to her emails) for years. I’ve admired her spiritual journey, her dancing, and her acting over the decades. I’ve read and enjoyed her many books and articles and think you might too!

After thought by Shirley MacLaine

Music videos

I’m trying out a couple of new video apps today to see which ones I might use to create music videos for any new songs we write. I just did a search and looked for free trials. I really dislike buying software, but I will if I find the right one that’s easy to learn and offers me what I think I’ll need. If you have any recommendations, let me know! As a thank you, here’s our newest song, Tell it to me.

Radio-ready songs

All the songs I’m sharing are radio-ready, sung by pro singers, and recorded by top music studios in Nashville, TN. We are songwriters currently based in Ocala, Florida. Scroll down for the Vimeo link in the About Us section of this post to see us perform one of our original songs.

May we all soar in ’24!

Find our songs on Spotify

It’s funny. Many of our original songs have been on CDBaby and TuneCore for years. Some of our songs are on Spotify at different locations. The key when you’re searching is to look for ‘Richard Murrey’ as the artist, OR ‘Chevy Ford Band.’ Let me know if that’s helpful. Here are a couple Spotify links if this helps:

Filmmakers, podcasters, deejays and so on can use our original music and songs in movies, TV shows, video intros, and such. I share this post on Tumblr (automatic feed from WordPress), Facebook, Twitter/X, LinkedIn, Instagram, Pinterest, Truth Social, Alignable, and Rumble. Links to all of these are at the end of this post.

What I am known for

Be the best version of who you want to be–because if you’re reading my words your soul is probably beckoning you to align with it and live up to your highest ideals. Not perfect because who is perfect? Most stagnate or ‘get stuck’ while on their way to being whatever they think perfection is. Making progress is enough. Carrying your Karma lightly is enough. Be kind to yourself while living responsibly. Who you ARE affects us ALL. We Are All Connected.

Energy/Omniscience (Omnism) governs ALL. Omniscience knows ALL. Omniscience is always with you. You are never alone.

A Near Death Experience (NDE)

I love this post from Dr. Eben Alexander and I love everything about the Near Death Experience he has written books about. If you would rather listen instead of read, play the audio (and there’s a few minutes of BONUS info on the audio this time too!):

Dr. Eben Alexander had a Near Death Experience

Gratitude and Optimism by Eben Alexander

What do you think of Eben’s Afterlife story?

For the thrill of it

When I first heard Eben’s story of the Afterlife, to say I was shocked and enthralled was to put it mildly–my reaction. I thought, now surely, people will believe there really IS an Afterlife!

But even while working for Dr. Raymond Moody last year, as a volunteer email correspondent, people still wrote in asking him if he thought there was a real Afterlife. Dr. Moody has often stated in interviews he believes there must be because so many have seen it during Near Death and Shared Death Experiences (NDEs and SDEs), but our human mind has such a difficult time accepting this (for some reason).

Me? I’m certainly a believer after all I’ve seen, during dreams, Afterlife visitations from my mother, and from what my less than one-day-old sister, Christina, showed me and I wrote about in the book, Blue Eyes: Ethereal Messages of Connection (link at the end of this post). I feel the vibrancy of my experiences still. As if they occurred yesterday! The memory of my experiences of the Afterlife, or what I call, the Grand Beyond never fade. And for that, I am most humbly and profoundly grateful.

I’m sharing Eben’s post today because I just took a deep dive with Anita Moorjani on Saturday via a Zoom call with Dr. Bruce Lipton, Dr. Shamani Jain, and Gregg Braden, which I will also write about this week. But when I saw Eben’s post in my email, I wanted to get this one out first, because I figured I could write this up more quickly (the other is taking a bit more time, though now, they’ll probably have taken the same amount of time–I’d thought I would simply post a link to his article, silly me).

–I took this Thanksgiving week off work to “work on/play” in Joy with my 5th book (title forthcoming but you can probably guess), which is in progress and I am on track to publish after the New Year. We’ll see! Haha!

Yours in expanding, thrilling, revolving, spiraling consciousness,

To our better health, ease, joy, and sustainment in JOY!

My Now/New spiritual philosophy

Be the highest evolving version of who your soul is beckoning you to Be. No “Perfection” needed. Making progress is enough. Carrying your Karma lightly is enough. Be kind to yourself while living responsibly. Who you ARE affects us ALL because… We Are All Connected.

Energy/Omniscience knows and IS ALL. Everything is Spiritual. God ALLways.

How my #FREE #Course is doing on YouTube

If you haven’t checked out my FREE Course of Integrating the Spirals over on YouTube be sure to check the link out a bit later in this post. The course is up to 84 views for Session 1, which I think is GREAT! However, for Sessions 2 through 4, there are 10 and 11 views each. This tells me that while many people have begun the course, for some reason it isn’t engaging enough for people to come back (or follow through). If you would rather listen instead of read, play the audio (and there’s a few minutes of BONUS info on the audio this time too!):

Follow through

I love that my multi-faceted process (message and training) is going out to many people on YouTube, but I feel the YouTube algorithm isn’t working to get the videos in front of more people–and I don’t advertise, so there’s that.

I don’t want to fall into the “doubt mindset” that plagues many coaches and teachers, I believe this DE-Programming course is important to lift people out of their “going through the motions” daily mind-numbing fog of routine. Maybe people don’t want to DE-Program from the mainstream. Maybe that’s it. Maybe my message doesn’t resonate with folks as much as I think. I don’t know. But I want to continue getting this idea-generating teaching out–and it’s information I REALLY enjoy (IN Joy) talking about and sharing!

Did you start the course and then not have time to finish?

Here’s the list of all 4 course sessions:

What questions can I answer about Integrating the Spirals?

How can I improve the Integrating the Spirals course? Would you commit to joining me on Live Zoom calls? Do you have questions about the course? I’d love to give you answers. Please let me know in the comments.

As an empath, I want to help ease suffering and raise our vibration to offer hope. I strive to uplift ALL and assist in the expansion of our collective consciousness. I teach breath work and meditation so we appreciate the value of Detachment. We till our inner soil with our breath to calm the amygdala and bring peace–actually resetting our nervous system baseline to peace and calm. We Connect through meditation and new repetitive steps to integrate spirit, higher selves, and Omniscience God INTO our bodies through this process. Integrating the Spirals opens us to receive non-programmed personal guidance direct from Source Creator.

Halloween and Samhain

I know this seems late, but in case you missed my “Happy Halloween” post because the title didn’t explicitly spell that out: https://sheilamurrey.net/2023/10/29/near-us-in-ocala-fl-is-huddys-escape-a-magic-house/ I thought I’d share again with some information (I picked up the day or two before Halloween but didn’t have time to share) about Samhain before it got too late into the season. Of course, people started putting up Christmas decorations in the US the day after Halloween–so there’s that. Haha!
