It’s December 13th, 2024; We’ve got a far out new original song for ALL today to get you through this Friday the 13th! Galactic love is sung by Ron Wallace. This space-age, radio-ready song was recorded and mixed at Beaird Music Group of Nashville, TN. https://www.beairdmusicgroup.com
This is the three-hundred-forty-fifth new music post for 2024! Can you believe we’re almost done with 2024?!? WOW! We’ve accomplished a few things, like the big move from Florida to New Hampshire, learning to kayak, and enjoying several art classes (at the art studio where my daughter works, about a mile from us). But, I haven’t completed writing my 5th book, yet. Nor have I read as many books as I thought I would in my first year of retirement. Hmmm… guess my To Do List will simply continue on to 2025. How about you?
What have you accomplished in 2024?
I had a very engaging conversation yesterday with a life coach, pilates and yoga teacher who reached out to me on LinkedIn. WOW! Isn’t it amazing how much we have in common with people? During our first phone call we discussed our move to NH from Florida, her four sons (all grown with the last one in college), us living next to my daughter and three granddaughters (and how I spend time with them), how I became an Information Technology professional (from business analyst to Technical Writer, now retired), how I’d primarily worked in Higher Education and traveled the country. That my first supervisor taught me the meaning of the word courage by hiring me–a young woman with two small children who had only had one class in digital electronics at a community college. We talked about how I am setting up my spa room in a big upstairs bedroom and how long it’s been since we had furniture (since we lived in our RV for so long–11 years). I asked her about her history of teaching pilates, yoga, and coaching and she explained how she’s ramping up her coaching business. (And no, she was not trying to ‘sell me’ on her coaching services–refreshing!). She told me her mom lives in Oregon and though her dad has recently passed away (crossed over), her mom has good friends and support system there. We talked a bit about life in Oregon too. Oh, and we both love Sedona, AZ!
We talked about the books we’ve written (both as a co-author and sole author), and the ones we have in progress. We talked a LOT about Yellowstone and the other great works of Taylor Sheridan with me explaining how I prefer to stay neutral (politically) and not have TV shows or movies veer too far left or right. I gave her the down low about GodBumps. I even got to tell her about my less-than day-old sister, Christina, how she first appeared to me (as told in my post: https://sheilamurrey.net/2017/04/26/that-little-blue-dot/) and how Christina was my focus for writing Blue Eyes: Ethereal Messages of Connection.
Now that I reflect on our conversation, I think it wrapped up who I am and where I am at this stage in my life. Interesting! We plan on talking more. We’ll see. The sweet surprise was that her husband is an independent songwriter and music producer in Nashville. Tada! It feels like the Universe has something in mind.
I fell asleep last night with the mantra, For No Thought of Gain, in my mind–and I know what that means. I can ask. But ultimately Omniscience God and the Universe decides. After that, it’s up to us to do any work involved. Spirit leads. We’re God’s hands. (Maybe that’s why I love Yellowstone so much. It reminds me of riding horses with my dad, and that rider/horse metaphysical relationship.)
What do you want to accomplish in 2025?
I’d love to hear what you’re working on and if you’d be up to having a phone call or Zoom chat with me sometime. I know several of you are in different time zones so it might take some doing to figure out the WHEN, but I think if we set it as a priority, we’ll make it happen. Monday’s, Wednesday’s, and Thursday’s are the best days for me. I’m on NY – eastern time zone.
Connections are important to me.
I can set the Zoom call if you want to do that. I just got a new iPhone after my old iPhone 7 Plus finally aged out (the charging cable broke the other day and three needed utility apps wouldn’t load because it wouldn’t accept an update of iOS 16. The new one is an iPhone 16 Plus with iOS 18. I’m still trying to figure it out. Thank goodness for YouTube! Haha!
Everything happens for a reason and myriad sides to every story
Yes, Everything Happens for a Reason 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 soar in ’24! And let’s (are you ready for this?) THRIVE in ’25! or just be… Alive in ’25.
Yours in expanding, coexisting (because there’s more than one-side to every story), spiraling consciousness,

It’s December 9th, 2024; We’ve got a rousing original country song for y’all today! I was made this way finds our talented Adam Cunningham back in the studio soulfully singing his heart out. The pro sound mixing was expertly done by the Beaird Music Group of Nashville, TN. https://www.beairdmusicgroup.com
This is the three-hundred-forty-first new music post for 2024! This radio-ready original rockin’ country song will get you moving on a Monday! Ha!
Sending out my Christmas cards
I love connecting with others, though I’m not typically a ‘card person.’ These unique cards really touch my soul. I think it is because they are handmade and painted, as well as, unique–like each of us!

The book I’m finishing
I’ve been diving into this book, He Was Weird, by blogger pal, 80smetalman (Michael D. LeFevre). I hope to be complete around Christmas time and post a separate review post.
The book I’ll begin in January
Screen capture: From the book our Theosophy book club just finished, Ancient Wisdom for a New Age, that lead us to choose the new book for 2025 to study, The Masters and the Path, by Charles. W. Leadbeater.Screen capture: the first affirmation from, The Masters and the Path, by Charles. W. Leadbeater. –From the book our Theosophy book club just finished, Ancient Wisdom for a New Age.Screen capture: the third affirmation, which is a prayer attributed to St. Francis. –From the book our Theosophy book club just finished, Ancient Wisdom for a New Age.
I’ll set a date to publish my 5th book, We Are All Connected, soon. I am looking at publishing it sometime next summer. I’m not going to push it, as I am still gathering new information and gleaning new wisdom. This is why I prefer blogging other books. I love ‘living’ documents. Even while studying with the Theosophy book club, I picked up new insights and believe the authors were writing from a more limited perspective when Ancient Wisdom for a New Age was written.
Many times, knowing what you don’t want or like, leads one to what you do want and like–and even who you really are!

It’s July 14th, 2024; We have an original blues jazz song about having the blues. Bubba Hudson does a supreme job on the vocals in this poppy song; powerful saxophone riffs from John Heinrich bring this song alive! And of course, everything was expertly mixed at Steven Cooper’s music studio in Nashville, TN.
Black and blues
Here’s the one-hundred-ninety-sixth new music post for 2024, as I consistently pump out hot new music to expand your mind and feel your soul. While this was the next song in my lineup to share I know it doesn’t speak to what happened in the USA last night. Thus, I’ll share a more appropriate song tomorrow regarding the news. We abhor the attempted assassination of former President Trump and have been glued to all the YouTube videos regarding this horrid act of violence.
Becoming aware of imbalances
Just as we see displays of hate and violence as a form of imbalance in our nation, a lot of people suffer from a gut imbalance of acid and enzymes. Here’s an old chart on food combining I bought when Richard and I were raw vegans (years ago, which is why it’s so faded), but understand it’s a complex read. I will say that we’ve not been following any specific diet (other than low sodium) for several months, and I’ve regained the weight I lost the year before when I adhered to the WildFit program. I know WildFit helped me rebuild my gut microbiome. I do recommend WildFit, but know it’s not sustainable for some.
I’m back to controlling my portions and combinations of certain foods to enhance my stomach acid, enzyme, and such since (for the first time in my life), I’ve begun taking antacids for indigestion. The heartburn and indigestion I’ve experienced, made me sit up and take notice of my diet again. I don’t want to live on those antacids.
Food combining chart from Ken Rohla of Fresh and Alive.
Yes, Everything Happens for a Reason 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. Anger is part of the human emotional experience, but finding healthy ways to let off steam is key. Never allow your emotions to drive you to commit unthinkable acts of violence. Take control of your emotions and make your mind your ally. If you need help in doing so, reach out to me (for advice, and to learn tools like Emotional Freedom Technique), or see a licensed mental health professional.
Enjoy (IN Joy) everything and love! Be Everything All the Time. May we all soar in ’24!

Spiritually speaking
As a Minister and Spiritual Advisor, it is my pleasure to help you find a way to Connect with spirit. Our ever-living God Omniscience knows ALL. The invitation is open to you.
I speak and offer advice by invitation only. If you would love me to speak at your office, bookstore, crystal shop, acupuncture/chiropractor office, natural health foods store, art fair, music, or yoga festival–comment on this post or reach out to me via my social channels.
I’m a slow reader, especially when I read a few pages of any book and seek the similarities and synchronicities it raises in my life. Thus, my apologies to Dawn for taking so long to post my review of Ariel’s Song, her lovely book of poetry.
I love how Dawn organized her book, with genuine Acknowledgments and a Dedication to her daughter, Ariel. I love that Dawn’s poems are poignant and reach deep into one’s soul. I find her words authentic and fascinating, even on subjects one may not explore often if at all.
I’m usually not one to seek out and buy books of poetry, but I do have three on the Kindle app on my phone and I will often read a few pages before I go to sleep (unless I am charging my phone in another room). We turn off our WiFi at night but now, but I get good service on my phone in our new location, so I have picked up nighttime reading again. I do have a reading light and several paperback books, but holding them and turning pages annoys me when I am sleepy. As well, I love to highlight and search within the Kindle books, so there’s that.
I’m quite happy to have Dawn’s book on my phone (in my Kindle app), so I can reference any of her poems whenever I wish. Though I like and love several of her poems, I know me. I will pick it up again in a year or so and find that others will resonate with me. That’s how reading goes for me. For now though, I will share my list of favorites with you next.
My favorite poems within the pages of Dawn’s book, Ariel’s Song are:
Stars Fade
Ariel’s Song
Rapping
Drunken Poet
Evening at the Mosque
The Last God
Melissa and the Angels
Christ’s Sorrow
Hold on to that Dream
My Life is a Desert
When the Morning Comes
Legacy
My Grave
The Age of Elegance
The Sleeping Beauty
The Rusty Tin Can
Psychology
The Girl on the Bus
The Old Man at the Piano
This Land is in My Blood
Springtime
Summer Eden
Sonnet to the Moon
O Thou, England!
April Showers
Where Shall We Go
Dreamcatcher
You and I
The Listener
The Dentist
The Ghost
The Fairies
I’ve also written a short 5-star review on Goodreads for Dawn’s book too!
Ariel’s Song can be found in paperback and Kindle versions on Amazon.

In case you missed it, Dawn was so kind to read and review my book, Blue Eyes: Ethereal Messages of Connection.
I have joined Dr. Tenpenny’s morning show before, but today, her answers were sooo good I had to share them–and all the links I collected from the chat too! If you would rather listen instead of read, play the audio (I know I haven’t given you an audio for several weeks):
Dr. Tenpenny answered two of my questions today!
This morning on the Dr. Tenpenny show, I asked her: How can people (like me) who have documented and turned their healing experience into a book (entice people to buy it)? I’m not a doctor or other qualified health pro so people tend not to listen to me and I have yet to sell one copy of my 200+ page health book (on Amazon: Have Yourself a Wholly Vibrant Life: Reversing Asthma and Other Chronic Illness Naturally). Total transparency here! Ha! I thought people weren’t buying because I’m not a health pro.
Dr. T referred me to a book called, The Holy Grail of Book Publishing with checklists and info on book launches–(turns out that it’s a 3 book set). She said, “You can’t just put a book up on Amazon and expect it to sell.” Tony Lyons from Skyhorse Publishing has told Dr. T: “A million books per year are published through Publishing houses.” So, know that competition is fierce. The best book Dr. T read was written by a mom regarding her Hepatitis B vaccine-injured baby. Dr. T advised me that a catchy book title (one that people can relate to and catches their attention) is needed. Along with a good book cover design, and a launch plan. She bought both, the Kindle and paper versions of The Holy Grail of Book Publishing–that’s how strongly useful she feels it is.
Plus, Dr. Tenpenny answered a question I had about underarm and groin rashes. Seems that’s an end to the path of lymph, so we’ll get rashes there when we are detoxing. I was thinking that’s where we sweat so it’s an EXIT point, but I hadn’t connected all the dots as of yet, so I asked. And she confirmed it for me. Tada!
Here are some additional links and recommendations from Dr. Tenpenny during this morning’s coffee talk. I love the Mel K show too!
Dr. Tenpenny wrote an article on Apeel. And so has Robyn Openshaw. Apeel is an edible coating that is sprayed on many fruits and vegetables to help them stay fresh longer. But we’re finding that it isn’t so good for us. So, here’s a link to that:
If you’re near Cleveland Ohio and only see allopathic doctors, or if you want a Christian medical doctor with integrity, I suggest checking out Dr. Tenpenny:
Do you have a burning question for Dr. Tenpenny? Here’s how you can join her on Zoom:
Human guinea pig
As you know, I have been researching and using myself as a guinea pig since 2005 to clear my personal health issues using mostly natural means. I go to licensed health professionals for tests and scans, but I do not believe in any one particular subjective health diagnosis (for myself) because I know about The Biology of Belief (thanks to Dr. Bruce Lipton, stem cell biologist, researcher, and author). I participate in his monthly group call (often asking Dr. Bruce questions on the Zoom calls–recordings are available) and community (when you pay $7 a month you can access all the prior Zoom call recordings and tons of information in the community portal/forum). You can join (best value around) at: BruceLipton.com and I’ll see you there!
Yours in expanding, guinea-pigging, spiraling consciousness,
To our better health, ease, and sustaining lives of JOY!

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.
My online Zoom video course, Integrating the Spirals is more timely now than ever because I know people are suffering. (Let me know if you’re interested in working through the Integrating the Spirals course.)
As an empath I want to help ease suffering and raise our vibration to offer hope. I want to uplift others and expand 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 institute peace. Meditation is an easy way to Connect us with spirit, higher selves, Omniscience God, and receive non-programmed personal guidance.

Nearly every time I have turned around this week, there’s been something new happening to expand my consciousness. Thus, I felt compelled to write about it though next up was going to be my Halloween post and why I had scheduled the shared “Munchkins” post to come out today.
I don’t often schedule posts because our life is more random and serendipitous than planned or controlled. And I like that. It’s organic the way nature intends.
If you would rather listen instead of read, play the audio (and there’s a couple BONUS comments on the audio):
Expanding experiences
Spur of the moment my daughter invited me to participate in a Facebook “Fall Shopping” multi-vendor group. I had never done one before—she has done many. I thought, “What the heck, maybe I will pick up some new blog readers, even sell a book or two. I have never seen authors in any of those groups I have been in (as a customer) to support my daughter who sells Color Street nail polish strips and more. So, I asked the facilitator/moderator/rule maker queen, and she needed one more vendor (they always want 18). She had not had an author in a group before either. Win-win for expanding consciousness. Ha!
I first struggled to get 16 of my Facebook friends IN the group. Queen facilitator said newbies like me, must have 16-20 friends in the group—we had to keep checking who got in too and send her a screenshot. UGH I almost quit right then. But I had already paid my entrance fee.
We had to send a Messenger message to each friend asking if they wanted to join before sending them the link. She didn’t want us clicking the Invite button from the top of the group page (a Facebook feature). And as a writer, okay, but I also WORK! So, I scrambled the first day to fit all the invitations in between work tasks. More expansion occurred throughout with reconnecting with new and old friends. Some said yes though and even after I reminded them, they never joined. Not sure what happened.
The vendors had to post at pre-determined and scheduled times. Anytime within an hour time slot, three times a day. I missed the first one but thankfully queen facilitator let me post my intro post a couple hours later because my 16th person fell through and I had to quickly find another just prior to my first scheduled time. UGH Aggravation or expansion, I don’t know.
Facebook Group posts
I learned something new. I am now skilled at setting “scheduled posts” within a Facebook group. Yep! Consciousness expanded.
Creativity – I loved being so creative this week. I made new memes,
New Friends – Yes, I made new friends from within the group and some of my wonderful and kind soulie sisters, like Nikki (here’s her blog) stretched herself a bit too and joined just to support me and share all about how she carries Blue Eyes: Ethereal Messages of Connection around with her (I love that my book has comforted her or helped in any way—she’s such a solid person and so kind and loving).
Doing the work – for someone like me who works from home and doesn’t get out much, this group stretched me in all kinds of ways. I had to think fast, ask, follow through, follow directions, create, entice, and offer all of the other vendors support by way of commenting on each of their posts with a minimum of five words. Yep.
Odds and Ends
In the middle of things I managed to listen to this:
Danica Patrick interviews David Wilcock
Shall I leave this at Expanding? (I did on the audio.)
But lastly, I’ll mention the new song hubby wrote (and needed me to do a quick sing) so he could send it to the Nashville studio? Yep. Here it is:
And my work tasks picked up mid-week. We received an invite to lunch next week with longtime high school friend and his wife. It didn’t require much thought to request a couple hours off work and see if our favorite restaurant was good for them. We had the usual array of odd and end things to take care of but I felt I was handling the chaos better. Maybe my BrainTap headset device is helping me after all! Ha!
I follow the Is-ness or ‘Snails Path’
Energy is the power behind ALL. Source creates. ALL rises, falls, undulates, pulsates, spins, whirls, collapses, expands, shrinks. The Dao (Daoism) emanates from the dot. Holism envelopes. ALL simply IS. Omniscience (Omnism) governs ALL.
To our better health, ease, joy, and sustainment in JOY!
