From Energy Healer To Influencer: How To Turn Your Gifts Into A Grandiose, Soul-Aligned Online Business

The following is from a list of notes I found in a file on my laptop that I’d taken several years ago. Yes, I’ve been going back through my hard drive to see what Perplexity.ai could help me turn into blog articles. And anything that doesn’t offer something relevant, I’m deleting. Call it housekeeping, or call it taking a break from the book. I’ve been neglecting my old files and it’s been nagging at me. Let me know if you, or anyone you know is following this kind of business model. I know a few coaches who are doing it, yet I am hesitant. And now, here’s the article:

Energy healers, spiritual coaches, and empaths are sitting on the most transformative medicine on the planet—yet many are undercharging, overgiving, and exhausted. This post walks through how to step into a grandiose (big, ambitious, kind) business model that honors your Soul, your nervous system, and your bank account.​


The New Paradigm Of Spiritual Business

Traditional “trade time for money” healing is burning people out. A new model blends spiritual depth with smart online marketing, allowing you to serve more people without draining your life force.​

  • Social influence has become a form of currency; your follower count and engagement can translate directly into paid speaking gigs and collaborations.​
  • Meditation creators on YouTube are earning hundreds of thousands per month just by sharing consistent, aligned content, and influencers charge premium rates for simple shout-outs.​

Why Social Influence Beats “Adding Value”

Many spiritual entrepreneurs were taught to “just add value” and hope clients appear. In today’s digital ecosystem, visible influence often matters more than hidden brilliance.​

  • A strong, engaged audience is like a perpetual word-of-mouth engine, multiplying your reach and trust without extra effort.​
  • When brands and event organizers see real metrics—followers, views, comments—they are willing to pay significantly more for appearances and endorsements.​

The DFY / DWY / DIY Offer Stack

One of the most powerful ways to scale your healing or coaching practice is to stop selling only one-on-one sessions and instead build a simple three-tier offer stack.​

  • DIY (Do It Yourself): A lower-ticket course or bundle (for example, a self-paced program plus ebook around $97) gives people affordable access to your system and warms them up for deeper work.​
  • DWY (Do It With You): A mid-ticket group experience (often runs somewhere between $2,000–$4,000 with about 20 hours of content) lets clients receive guidance, community, and live support without you needing to be in one-on-one sessions all day.​
  • DFY (Done For You): A high-level, premium container (up to $25,000 or more) is for clients who want speed and personalized implementation, and it respects both your expertise and your energetic bandwidth.​

Smart Tools To Decode What The Market Wants

You do not have to guess what to offer or how to position it. Data tools can quietly reveal what is already working in your niche so you can align your genius with proven demand.​

  • The Facebook Ads Library lets you spy ethically on ads from teachers, coaches, and healers to see what headlines, offers, and hooks are currently being paid for.​
  • Platforms like Similarweb allow you to plug in a competitor’s website or landing page and see where their traffic comes from and what content is converting, so you can design your own aligned version.​

Energetic Alignment: Godbumps, Not People-Pleasing

Scaling your business does not mean abandoning your sensitivity; it means building structures that protect and amplify it.​

  • Instead of people-pleasing or feeling responsible for everyone’s emotions, empaths can design group containers and digital products that support many people without constant emotional entanglement.​
  • Follow what gives you “Godbumps”—those full-body chills of resonance—and weave in practices like prayer, meditation, yoga nidra, Qigong, or JIGGLE BUTT so your business growth stays in Soul-alignment rather than lack or fear.​

Walking Your Talk In A Grandiose Way

A truly grandiose spiritual business is not about ego; it is about letting your impact grow as big as your devotion.​

  • Study your passion, gather knowledge from many paths, and then become an “extractor of truth,” integrating what works into your own embodied method.​
  • Practice what you preach in everyday life, then let your online presence incite, excite, and awaken people—turning your message into an adventure that attracts your perfect “tribe” of clients and collaborators.

Integrating the Spirals

I’m encouraging those “over 60” to open to lifelong learning (observe and gently question their pre-conceived beliefs, aka ‘Programming’), become more aware of their thoughts and emotions, consistently 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!

Did we Thrive in ’25? – Year end review of 2025

I opened the Comet browser, which uses Perplexity.ai and entered the statement, Write me a year end summary from my 2025 blog posts at: https://sheilamurrey.net – And the following is what it returned to me:

Your 2025 posts trace a year of expanding creativity, deepening spiritual inquiry, and steady, practical encouragement to “Thrive in ’25” through conscious choice, connection, and holistic self-responsibility.

To listen to this blog post find the audio track here:

Creative expansion and “Thrive in ’25”

Across the year you leaned fully into being a creator—especially through music, video, and collaborations.
You chronicled the birth of multiple original songs (like GodBumpsWhisper of the AncientsThe Bullies, and the evolving “Intimacy” series), sharing not just finished pieces but your process, experiments with Suno AI, and your joy at finally claiming the “songwriter” mantle alongside Richard’s longstanding catalog.

You framed this surge of creation inside your “Thrive in ’25” intention, inviting readers to enjoy (“IN Joy”) each day, follow their own creative nudges, and see themselves as fractals of Omniscience participating in a melodious, ever-expanding multiverse.

Deepening message: responsibility and energetic hygiene

Many posts return to the theme that healing begins with radical self-responsibility—mentally, emotionally, physically, and spiritually.
You wove together ideas from holistic health, Ayurveda, mind‑body science, and subtle energy (stress as “reaction to thoughts,” spiritual causes of symptoms, vibrational repetition, etc.), while continually reminding readers that they can choose better-feeling thoughts, new habits, and boundaries that protect their energy.

Your “Integrating the Spirals” pieces, especially those addressing embarrassment over others’ bad behavior or broader social tensions, model this energetic hygiene: observe, feel, and then detach without taking on shame or hatred, returning always to the mantra that “Everything Resolves to Gratitude.”

Connection, agape, and We Are All Connected

You amplified the “We Are All Connected” through-line by sharing and reblogging others’ writings on agape love, indigenous wisdom, mystic teachings, and spiritual quotes, situating your work in a wider field of kindred voices.
Posts on concepts like In Lak’ech, the Ainu people’s gifts, Rosicrucian reflections, and vibrational/spiritual blockages extend your long-term project: mapping how love, frequency, and consciousness shape health, relationships, and collective evolution.

You also used personal vignettes—Zoom circles, book clubs, WhatsApp groups, your granddaughters’ fascinations, and fellow bloggers’ projects—to show that connection is not abstract; it is lived in community, co‑creation, and mutual uplift.

2025 posts step more directly into cultural and political edges while trying to stay anchored in balance and discernment.
From bullying and trauma to protests, propaganda, and eroding freedoms, you shared hard-earned insights (“hurt people hurt people,” “useful idiot,” the need to “mine for truth”) and offered tools for not being swallowed by fear, shame, or polarization.

You often return to the water metaphor—“Be as water and dance while you have legs”—to suggest a way of moving through conflict: fluid yet bounded, compassionate yet unwilling to merge with energies that are out of alignment (oil and water don’t mix).

Meta-moment: seeing yourself through AI’s eyes

A notable 2025 moment was your decision to ask Perplexity AI what it “saw” in you and your practices, and then share those reflections with your readers.
You treated that summary as both a mirror and a confirmation—evidence that years of writing on spirals, holism, and daily practice have cohered into a recognizable method others can articulate and use.

By posting screenshots of that description and inviting feedback, you turned AI into yet another spiral: a feedback loop to refine your language, affirm your path, and encourage readers to explore their own tools for self-knowledge in an evolving digital‑spiritual landscape.

My final thoughts on 2025

In my last blog post, I was remiss or simply forgot to mention the most important thing I did for myself in 2025.

I came back to Christ Jesus.

I published the blog post, https://sheilamurrey.net/2026/01/02/integrating-the-spirals-happy-new-year/ and went to wash our dishes and the thought hit me, “I didn’t put Jesus first in that post”!

There are probably multiple reasons for that such as, 1) it’s a personal decision and relationship and one that doesn’t require me to publicize it, 2) I’ve never really ‘left’ Jesus, though I have studied a variety of religions and have received Dao (a Taoist blessing). I am not one of those who believe Jesus is “the only way” either, thus while I do honor the scripture that says we should not deny Jesus in front of men, I do not proselytize either. I was not raised that way and I’ve certainly learned throughout my life that one cannot “change” anybody. The Bible also says that unless the Holy Spirit (corrected, Father) draws the man, he cannot be saved (That’s me loosely paraphrasing John 6:44 which says, “No one can come to me unless the Father who sent me draws them, and I will raise them up at the last day.) So, I don’t know about you, but I am not here to convert anyone.

Perplexity.ai was right on about my intentions and reasons for writing blogs and books:

Help us all find better-feeling thoughts, establish and stack new habits, and fluidly embrace boundaries that protect (or at least maintain and not allow others to drain us of) our own personal energy. Because I value all of the attributes of water, I don’t use the word, ‘protection’ much. Water eventually gets its way without having to hard and fast control or protect anything.

Happy New Year everyone! Many blessings and much love!

Integrating the Spirals: Happy New Year!

So, here we are, in a brand spanking new year! Woo-hoo! I sure hope 2026 brings all of us health, wealth, and wisdom! I’m considering doing a book tour for my 5th book, We Are All Connected. I’m planning on renting a car this spring or summer and taking Richard to Kentucky (with stops in Pennsylvania to visit a cousin and a friend, and in West Virginia to see family and friends), so we COULD stop in at a few bookstores or such and see if I can drum up some support for the book. I’ll be reaching out to a few of you for advice on how to best go about that. Plus, I’ve got some wonderful marketing lined up… a big name has offered to share my information and book link out to his massive email list!! More on that as we get nearer to the time of release.

We’re doing much better this winter than we did during our first winter in New England. We aren’t even using our electric blanket on the bed! And Richard loves our new red light therapy device too–yes, believe it or not, he’s using it! Here’s the link if you’d like to check these out: Red Therapy Co

Speaking of the temperatures, I thought it was curious that the very day 3I/Atlas was nearest to earth (Dec. 19th 2025), it was the warmest day of the winter here in NH and in much of the northern USA! Wow! Go figure.

I’m going through my 2025 calendar and I’m fairly surprised at how productive I was!

I took several art classes (I loved the clay and etchings classes the most and want to do more); I had lots of Zoom calls (with Michael of Peaceful Rampage, with my Theosophy book club (twice a month), and once monthly with Dr. Bruce Lipton and commUnity, with IONS, Consciousness and Healing Initiative (CHI), Lazarus Initiative, Shared Crossing Project, and most recently Herbal Cottage (friends in Cocoa Beach, Florida run that; as one of their first 100 members I’m in for free for herb classes, which I very much appreciate–we use the Skool app for that, but it’s been an easy learning curve for me). I pay an annual fee for a few of these groups. Few are free.

I also bought live access to a 3-Day consciousness conference–it was the first time I’d done this. Our dear Bruce was a headliner and I love Gregg Braden and Anita Moorjani as well, so it was a no brainer. Here’s my previous article about it: https://sheilamurrey.net/2025/04/22/thrive-in-25-expanding-consciousness-via-3-day-livestream-conference/

Early in the year, I was certain I could clear the tinnitus I’ve had and went for quite a few health treatments such as Reflexology, Chiropractic, Acupuncture, and worked with a couple Energy Medicine type practitioners–one was in person and local to me (she did a different type of craniosacral therapy on me) and another lady offered more of what turned out to be talk therapy and breathwork via Zoom. The lady via Zoom was actually more expensive than the in-person gal, so I opted out of her sessions and if I need more treatments, I will go for in-person treatments since at least, they are hands on and there’s so much to be said energetically, for that.

I still experience tinnitus. I have tried many things, including Qi Coil and now, the red light therapy. The red light has made some small bit of change in pitch of the buzzing/whirring I experience, and the Qi Coil (when I’m running the ‘clear auditory tubes’ at night when we’re in bed) has been best at completely eliminating the noise, but sadly, the noise returns as soon as I turn the Qi Coil off.

My daughter and I took a line dance class at our local Opera House–we’d went more just to have a girls night out though and didn’t realize it would be so much of a ‘class.’ Months later, we took two of the granddaughters (one was sick and couldn’t go) back to the Opera House (we all walked to/from there) and enjoyed a Christmas show with dancing and photo opportunities with Santa and Mrs. Claus. We all enjoyed that. The girls got to meet some K-Pop Demon Hunters gals in costume and were thrilled with that too!

I went trick-or treating with the family too and had a blast, though yes, it was cold and I was freezing! Next time, I’ll bundle better and take a thermos of hot tea or such. Some neighbors offered us warm cider but I don’t always do well with that and didn’t know how much longer we’d be walking. The joys of being an old person. LOL Ugh.

As a family this year, we went to an indoor flea market and that was fun. I found some Avon Nativity collectable pieces I’d been missing, so I bought those and I’ve been enjoying seeing a full Nativity on our bookshelf this Christmas season.

We also celebrated our daughter and son-in-law’s wedding anniversary by going to Loon Mountain in the White Mountains region and rode the gondola. That was a blast! I overdid the hiking though and almost got stuck trying to go to the cave. Thankfully, I made it back up the mountain unassisted–though my son-in-law had came looking for me when all three of the granddaughters had came back to the picnic area, sans grandma! Ha!

We also had a great time at the annual Pumpkin festival. We didn’t get to the speedway for the Christmas lights though (as we did last winter), because at one time or another one of the girls, our daughter, or son-in-law were sick. Oh well! Hopefully, we’ll get to go next winter!

I began songwriting on Suno AI nearly a year ago (on January 16, 2025) to be exact.

We’ve cleaned up our diet a bit and a few months ago I gave up hard liquor. I still have a bit of wine or sake, but I’m almost ready to let that go too. We buy two bottles of Koso per month–it’s a fermented pre and probiotic from Japan that we found out about on a YouTube video vlog. It was my first substitute for my evening cocktail. Now, I am finding it too sweet too. Richard still likes it though and has continued to order it. He takes a shot of it with his breakfast every other day.

Speaking of Richard, we hosted his sister and her husband here for a few days during their birthday time in August. Yes, they share a birth date–though they are many years apart. My uncle has the same birth date too. I’ve always found that kind of synchronicity fascinating.

I started drinking a pint and a half of lemon-lime herbal infused mineral water daily. As well as a protein drink each day to which I add rose hips and sea buckthorn powder. My theory is that by increasing my nutrition, the less I’ll eat overall and lose some of this lard. I have released about 10 pounds in the last six months and am down one pants size. So yay ME! I think Jiggle Butt has something to do with that weight loss as well.

And my JIGGLE BUTT videos have been going really well. I’ve stayed accountable to doing my dancing every day (even when I have had sore knees or back) and I’m up to 149 subscribers as of today! I want to get my YouTube channel monetized at some point, better this year than next! Even if I make a few dollars a month, it would help. Living on Social Security, even without owning anything, is not for the faint of heart, especially when one wants to go and do with grandchildren.

Warren Buffet Goal list 2025 accomplishments

My numerology Life Path is a #5. If you’re into such things, you can look that up. Accomplishments seem important for me, which is probably why I am always, “busy, busy, busy” to quote my dearly departed dad who told me that every time he used to call me.

I had a short TO DO List though for 2025 of goals to achieve for the year. And I nearly completed each one. One goal was to finish my 5th book–and I very nearly have! I’m in editing mode now. 

I had wanted to visit WV and OH for my 45th HS reunion and I did, though I got sick three hours before the main event and missed it! I know. I was pissed about that too. But I did get to see the most important people to me while on that trip, so there’s that.

I also got to Salem, Massachusetts to experience the witchy city and meet up with dear friend Jennifer Carey (whom I’d met years ago in Florida and did the Breakthrough program with). Her husband has read my manuscript for We Are All Connected and given me wonderful feedback on it already too! Do you sense the circular impact here?

Currently, or most recently

I happened upon a video post from Sly Stallone on Facebook today and I watched it with great intent! I shared it publicly on my Facebook page too. It was THAT good! I made a lengthy comment to Sly in case he (or someone in his family) might see it. I really respect him and it helped to see him sitting in front of a huge binder of HAND WRITTEN pages–he completed his memoir. He’s calling his book, The Steps. We can probably imagine why too (for the steps he used to run up/down in Philadelphia when he was training… and that were shown in the film, Rocky).

We also watched a YouTube (that was probably all done on AI) the other night and it was such a good story (from Clint Eastwood) that I teared up. Here it is if you like him. With my background in Aviation and Aerospace it hit close to home for me: https://youtu.be/EDafHdy9Xpw?si=pD43O2H1nQWH7uqR

We’re now watching season 4 of the TV series, Justified. I have asked dear hubby to write a funk-a-billy song for me to dance to now. Haha! It seems I’m getting more channel growth (more subscribers) on YouTube because of my smile and enthusiasm for what I’m doing. I wish I’d get more comments about the songs though, as that and getting more movement into my day were my initial motivations for doing the videos, but alas, one never knows what the public will get out of anything, why they’ll like it, or if they’ll stick around. Fame is fleeting. And I’m not in it for fame, thank God.

Here’s a few recent photos and links to the blog posts I wrote earlier in the year that stand out to me as I scroll through my monthly archives:

https://sheilamurrey.net/2025/03/30/thrive-in-25-art-class-fused-glass-jewelry/

Screen capture from one of my recent JIGGLE BUTT dances.
My Christmas Day meal and it was all I ate that day and was still way too much!
Daughter’s Christmas tree and all the presents. The granddaughter’s decorated the tree this year. Aww!
I finished writing my longhand notes in a very heartfelt and impressive journal. I’m not sure I’ll continue journaling (as my hand gets tired after a page or two), and I prefer to type on my MacBook Air keyboard. Unlike Sly Stallone, I learned to type in high school and I love the feel of the keys under my fingertips! Plus, when journaling, I would get a week or two behind, especially while I was heads down writing, We Are All Connected. This particular UK journal was a suggestion from fellow blogger, Gray Summers from: https://graysummerstwo.com

This is the potential front book cover. We love the flower of life!

Richard is going to rework this one to make the back cover (so the text will go away and a block of text will layover the middle). I loved there were more people on it and that it had a more DNA look to the frequency bands flowing between the people.

Happy New Year everyone! Many blessings and much love!

Integrating the Spirals

I’m encouraging those “over 60” to open to lifelong learning (observe and gently question their pre-conceived beliefs, aka ‘Programming’), become more aware of their thoughts and emotions, consistently 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!

Integrating the Spirals: Let’s play a game! And progress on my 5th book (with link where you can read it)

The month of December has been flying by for me. But I do have a second draft ready (for those of you who would like to preview it) of my 5th book, We Are All Connected. Happy Winter Solstice and 3I/Atlas being at its nearest! What a day!

Because my Theosophy book club leader spoke on the significance of Matthew 6:22 to her on our call today, I decided to play a little game with it and AI on Facebook, and then I thought it might also be fun to extend it out to you all via WordPress!

I thought a fun thing to do might be to compare what some of the different AI sites had to say about Matthew 6:22. Here’s the first one I looked at, from Google:

Matt 6:22 per Google AI

If you’d like to play along just type in Matt 6:22 into whichever AI you use and take a screen capture of it, or copy and paste the outcome into the comments. Thank you for playing!!

We must love Timothy Olyphant because now we’re binging on the initial 6 seasons of the original series of, Justified. And yes, I love the funky hillbilly theme song and hear it in my sleep! Ha!

Integrating the Spirals: Have you heard of Xania Monet?

I popped up out of my writing hole for a few minutes the other day to read this article about Xania Monet the other day because the subject hit close to home for us as songwriters who used to rely heavily on having our original songs produced in Nashville, TN. Here’s the article (and embedded video interview) that I recommend you watch, especially if you’re an ‘AI hater’:

https://www.cbsnews.com/news/meet-the-woman-behind-chart-topping-ai-artist-xania-monet-i-look-at-her-as-a-real-person/

Creator of AI artist says there’s “a real person behind Xania” amid controversy: https://www.cbsnews.com/news/meet-the-woman-behind-chart-topping-ai-artist-xania-monet-i-look-at-her-as-a-real-person/

Xania Monet is an AI songstress co-created by Telisha “Nikki” Jones and Suno AI. And we use Suno AI (my husband uses the paid version, and I use the free version), to create songs we wouldn’t otherwise be able to produce, physically or financially. In our opinion, the music studios have priced themselves out of existence!

Yes, my husband has spent over $100,000 in the last twenty years, no exaggeration, to have his 400+ original songs demoed in Nashville, TN. And I’m not complaining. We have an astounding collection of REAL songs thanks to those studio singers and musicians. But since my husband had a stroke in October 2022, and since I retired in December 2023, he cannot play guitar and bass like he used to and we simply cannot afford to send songs to the top music studios anymore.

Before we learned of Suno AI we sent some songs to musician friends who did the best they could to demo our songs–in their home studios and on their timetable (which tended to be a bit too slow for us). Some of those songs turned out good, but they weren’t of anything like the quality we had been used to receiving back from our favorite Nashville music studio. And I won’t even get started on how much we were paying top talent singers who kept raising their prices to sing each song! Ugh.

So, go figure. We spread as much wealth around as we could for as long as we could. Now, we just don’t have it.

Enter Suno AI. People can hate Artificial Intelligence all they want. I used to as well! After all, I’d had 35 years in Information Technology as a Business Analyst and Technical Writer so why would I want to use more tech when it came down to our soul passion of songwriting and producing? I sing and feel it in my soul when I sing, and when other incredible talents, like Adam Cunningham hit deep. I get it. We love Adele too! We want to be moved by incredible singers. But there’s a place for AI. And I do NOT understand why people are fighting it.

Here’s the thing. When one has no other choice and the choice (as it turns out) is this good, sometimes you just gotta give it a go!

My husband embraced Suno AI and has been churning out several songs a day using it since February 2025. It’s given him a certain vitality back and zest for living too! And that’s priceless to me.

I used my Integrating the Spirals process to ease me over my “hating AI” bumps and began using the free version of Suno AI to get some of my poems set to music (and I’ve used some on my YouTube channel to help share information about my Integrating philosophy too).

I can’t say we’re making any money yet from our AI generated songs, like Telisha “Nikki” Jones is with Xania Monet, but the process has been instantly gratifying and that’s not too shabby!

To get some idea of the kinds of music my husband creates, check out his YouTube channel and remember anything before Feb. 2025 was produced by high dollar Nashville studios, and anything more recent (even his redo’s) were produced by AI. Thanks!

I’m encouraging those “over 60” to open to lifelong learning (observe and gently question their pre-conceived beliefs, aka ‘Programming’), become more aware of their thoughts and emotions, consistently 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!

Integrating the Spirals: With the possible exception of research institutes, Higher Ed lags behind

When I worked for a university (for ten years), I came to realize just how much the formal education system lagged behind in the knowledge they were teaching.

Consider this. Think about how long it takes to get a group of academics together to make degree program decisions, gather textbooks together (it often takes years for authors to write and publish textbooks!), recruit and hire faculty, as well as, prepare learning objectives, course syllabus, outline, instructions, tutorials, learning aids and all other materials. It’s no small feat! And all of that takes time.

A college or university administrative staff then has to prepare a course catalog and academic calendar schedule. And this is only some of the work that has to be done on the student registration side! There are all other kinds of actions that must be performed (setup) before students can show up to attend classes: admissions, financial aid, bookstore, etc.

When you get down to the nitty gritty of it, you can begin to understand why college programs are not on the cutting edge of science.

My educated conclusion? Research institutes may seem like they are on the leading edge of science, but they are also likely slower at disseminating their research findings and groundbreaking discoveries than most of us want to believe.

One way I integrate mind and body

Part of what I teach in Integrating the Spirals is bodily movement when reaching new awareness, setting new intentions, or receiving new information to fully embody it.

JIGGLE BUTT has become the daily integration exercise I do that’s fun! It started as a way to promote my husband’s original songs, but now, it has become so much more!

I hope to encourage others over 60 to be open to lifelong learning, aware of thoughts and emotions, consistently move their bodies, become strong, resilient, and create their own Jiggle Butt videos too!

Integrating the Spirals: Regarding AI

Continuing to discuss the multifaceted issue of how to accept/utilize AI…

A lot of people are bothered by Artificial Intelligence (AI), especially when used within spiritual circles. But here’s Mike Dooley on the subject:

It may be another hard truth to hear… but it seems AI is here to stay.

Integrating the Spirals: What AI had to say about ME!

Here I am, sitting with our twin granddaughters. And they’re ignoring me, like teenagers, though they’re 8 years of age! Ha! They’re playing their Switches.

I was introduced to a new AI website

The other day, I was introduced to a new artificial intelligence (AI) website. Perplexity AI. Here’s what it said about ME:

What Perplexity AI summarized about my holistic practices.
What Perplexity AI had to say about my “spiral” technique, Integrating the Spirals.
More from Perplexity AI about my daily holistic practices.
The last bit from Perplexity AI about my daily holistic practices.

I found ALL of this AMAZING! I think Perplexity AI summed up and made a great detailed list of my holistic practices. What do you think? (If you’re familiar with or have been following my writings, that is.) Here’s the link if you’d like to try Perplexity AI: https://www.perplexity.ai

Integrating the Spirals: Mind-blowing and consciousness expanding that explains a lot!

I am sharing an incredible YouTube conversation that was just posted a day ago! There’s so much in this conversation that hits home to me! Fractals, spirals, and Atlantis. Oh my!

A friend from my Dr. Bruce Lipton group shared it or I may not have gotten it so soon. I’m still listening but knew I had to share it ASAP. Note the comment I posted on it within YouTube:

Incredible interview with Emilio Ortiz, Robert Grant, and AI.

Let me know what you think of it. Oh, and if math bores you, skip the first 30 minutes. It gets really good after they start asking the AI questions!

‘Thrive in 25’ – Growing a YouTube channel

Are you following my YouTube channel?

https://www.youtube.com/@SpiralSister

And are you following my husband’s YouTube channel?

https://youtube.com/@richardmurrey

We’re curious!

Should we continue creating music videos?

We handed a USB thumb drive to someone new the other day to get a gauge on how Richard’s songs are liked. We will ask the gentleman in a couple of weeks when we see him again if he liked the songs.

Richard wants to create stuff people want. If no one’s interested, he wants to start a new hobby.

And I am starting to create more songs on another AI song platform because Suno AI has totally wrecked my account (and I can’t access it anymore). (I have written them twice and put in a help ticket with them about it.)

Everything happens for a reason in the multiverse with myriad sides to every story

Yes, Everything Happens for a Reason in the multiverse and Everything Resolves to Gratitude. Knowing that each of us (as fractals) uplifts my mind and allows me to view life as a lively kaleidoscope grand design that moves about in an ever-expanding, revolving, melodious, consciousness. Even if we have to disconnect from some people, for a time.

Enjoy (IN Joy) everything and love! Be Everything All the Time. Let’s THRIVE in ’25!

Yours in expanding, coexisting (because there’s more than one-side to every story), balancing, spiraling consciousness,

Integrating the Spirals: An Open Letter to Those Who Think AI Art Isn’t Human Art

An Open Letter to Those Who Think AI Art Isn’t Human Art

By Richard Murrey, a Songwriter, Artist, and Storyteller Who’s Seen It All

I’ve spent over 50 years creating.

Songs. Paintings. Stories.

But because there was something in me that needed to be shared with the world.

Not for fame. Not for fortune.

Today, I hear a lot of talk—especially from legal voices and internet critics—that “AI art isn’t real art,” that “you can’t copyright AI-generated work,” because, they say, it wasn’t made by a human.

To that, I say: You’ve missed the point entirely.

Yes, I use AI tools. I write songs with them. I bring old dreams to life with them.

But I don’t just press a button and walk away. I craft. I sculpt. I prompt.

And here’s what you don’t understand unless you’ve done it yourself:

The prompt is not a command—it’s a vision.

It’s a carefully chosen string of words, informed by a lifetime of experience.

It’s storytelling.

It’s composition.

It’s intention.

It’s authorship.

When I write a prompt, I’m not automating creativity—I’m collaborating with a tool. Just like a painter uses brushes. Just like a songwriter uses a guitar.

The brush doesn’t paint the picture.

The guitar doesn’t write the song.

And the AI doesn’t dream the dream.

I do.

Every prompt I write carries my voice. My style. My soul.

If you’ve never felt the rush of getting just the right tone, the right image, the right line from an AI that you guided into shape—then I understand why you might think it’s magic.

But let me assure you—it’s not magic. It’s craft.

And if copyright law doesn’t recognize that?

Well, then maybe it’s not the art that needs redefining.

Maybe it’s the law.

Still writing

Art and music can help

It don’t have to rhyme. —Richard Murrey

Integrating the Spirals: Putting the heart in our AI-driven future

Have we disconnected from our heart and soul as we pursue Artificial Intelligence (AI) song generation, or in any AI pursuits for that matter? That was the subject of this fascinating YouTube video.

YouTube link: https://youtu.be/o1XNbOEmBLk?si=c50eqSe0aGpzixIW
YouTube link: https://youtu.be/o1XNbOEmBLk?si=c50eqSe0aGpzixIW and my comment

Are we losing the heart in our AI-driven future?

After all of the AI song generation I’ve done, and that my husband has done in the last few months, I can tell you this: While the songs may stick in my head, I’ve yet to feel GodBumps (the way I explain that soul resonance I feel) as I listen to our AI songs. And that disturbs me. It also makes me think this way of creating music is best used to get ideas from and then go back into the studio with real singers and musicians in order to put out quality music.

For me, this means, using AI to help me build the skeleton of the lyrics, then I massage them and ensure the lyrics relate MY personal story, and then let the AI general the singing and music as an initial raw demo.

My husband writes all of his own lyrics and lyrical structure. Then he plugs his lyrics into the AI song generator to have it sung and played. Most of the songs he’s plugging into the AI generator are his, songs he’s already had played/sung by real live musicians and he’s published/released. He’s simply using AI to generate a different version. A different sound. It’s fun for him! Far be it from me to deny him of that.

My hubby’s original song, The al gore rhythmic. I think you’ll find it amusing!

Yours in expanding, revolving, limitless, spiraling consciousness,

To our better health, ease, and sustaining lives of JOY! (With lots of Gratitude throughout.)
