I sent the following list to my Reiki group when my Reiki teacher asked one of the others to find out why I wasn’t coming to the Reiki Masters weekend class that NOW they want to have June 17th/18th.
The class date has already changed multiple times—and one was due to my request from having to work one weekend. Thus, I was flexible and canceled our vacation, which was to be this week when the class was set for June 3rd/4th. I say this to admit the lens of irritation I am looking through at the moment.
In the order of importance, my reasoning for not attending is:
1) I can no longer leave Richard for a whole day (much less two days in a row)
2) I have no car and taking Uber/Lyft is too expensive, hassle of riding alone (Richard always goes with me anywhere in Uber/Lyft when/wherever I have to go)
3) No one has came to see us/visit, etc. Not just from Reiki but the other friends we have had here for 6 years and I am feeling effects of that – the yin/yang and push/pull kind of energy disturbance. Now, I am distancing us from others as I perceive this whole flux of energy—be it right or wrong; that’s what it is
4) I know my Reiki master teacher and other friend there are probably enjoying the avocado trees I brought over when we had a rental car, (neither could visit us to pickup the trees, so we went out of our way to drop them off a month or so ago). No one has sent me any updates or pictures, thank you’s or what not of the trees. And yes, little things like that add up to me. Actions speak louder than words. If I hadn’t started making this list, because someone couldn’t accept No as a complete sentence, I probably wouldn’t have realized this annoys me, but I guess it does. I realize everyone is busy and that the trees are small things. But I put a lot of money, time, love, and Reiki energy into those. And I am human. And now, yes, by choice, homebound. So, the lack of any updates is magnified.
5) I am running a Power of 8 group now via Zoom, so I think my desire of group Connection is fulfilled
6) I am running another course, marketing books, music, and still working my job, which keeps me busy – so my mental plate is FULL and I don’t feel it is necessary anymore to complete the Masters Reiki. No one is taking me up on my offers of prayers or Reiki support either. Or at least, not many, and my other health business is taking off.
7) I miss several others from our earlier Reiki circles (the Tuesday nights) and thankfully, one has reached out to me for other reasons than why I am choosing not to attend the masters training. I really am not feeling pity for myself. I humbly remain in Gratitude for ALL.

Updated Blue Eyes: Ethereal Messages of Connection
I had a few small items to correct in the ebook and that is done. I have to update the paperback version as well.
Joined new writing group on Facebook
I am now in an Akashic Records writing group on Facebook. It’s a paid private group that meets twice a month for about an hour each time, on zoom.
Started writing a new book!
I have a name for the new book and have started getting my notes together in Scrivener for it! Curious of its name? It is something I have blogged about and say many times. Let me know in the comments.
Decluttering laptop
Checking off moving tasks
Uship – setup moving request in draft
Found a Uhaul place in Ocala near one of the possible apartment communities in case there’s any issues with Uship
I feel I can do most of the move myself if need be but I will take a week off to do it
Have three potential apartment communities to call to get final availability on June 15th for August 20th move-in – one called today and sent us two potential unit numbers to check the community map to see which we might like
Started packing our bedroom this past weekend
Ordered more totes from Thirty-One for organizing/packing
Using up food stored in the kitchen so we will have less to move
Seeking a way to travel to New Hampshire this summer
We don’t want to fly, but we are open to traveling by train (though to reach our destination will require us changing trains three times or more, plus still renting a car and driving a hundred miles or so for the last bit).
I think it would be lovely to travel with a group of like-minded friends and add some sacred site stops in along the way! I have a list of places we could see and fantastic AirBnB places to stay as well. Anyone interested in that? We could make the trip 10-14 days in length. Florida to New Hampshire and back. Let me know in the comments.
One of my cousins called and offered to fly to Florida and drive us in a rental RV or van to NH. We are thinking about it.

A lot of something can be a poison; a little, a medicine. In the physical, our eyes are limited and we see through the veil darkly. And fractals. Always uncovering the fractals to reveal many layers and play with the patterns that emerge.
To listen instead of read, play this (you’ll get a surprise if you do, I sing a line from a song you may recognize that inspired this):
A Sunday meditation (examining thoughts)
Alcohol. Used to make tinctures, tonics, and medicine, or to cook with, can be good. But to an alcoholic that same small amount can trigger a binge. People have died from drinking too much alcohol. Thus, it is a lethal substance, yet legal (in most places in the USA).
Water. Too little can kill; too much can kill. Air carries tiny droplets of water we call, Humidity.
Air. Breathwork is beautiful. Hyperventilation can cause someone to pass out. Humans can only go so many minutes without air though. Our physical reality literally depends on a mixture of invisible chemicals we call, Air.
Dirt. I remember a story about a Russian woman who lived to a long age by eating dirt. We need a little dirt, I recall hearing as a child–for the minerals. When we die, we are buried beneath four to six feet of dirt. When we buried my parents the cemetery owner told me the “six feet under” thing was a fallacy. They typically only dig the hole down into the earth about four feet.
Minerals. A little mercury? Too much is certain poison. A little dab will do you (maybe?) of this earth element that is a combination found in the environment of cinnabar and metacinnabar. But at some amount, mercury is toxic. Who was the first person to discover this? What suffering did that person experience?
Driving. When drivers follow the rules, traffic seems orderly. Remember leisurely Sunday drives? I do. But recently I chose to give up driving because it stresses me out. Or perhaps, I ALLOW crazy drivers to stress ME out? Even when I practice Reiki and turn my spiritual Reiki light on, the hassle of driving was something I didn’t feel I needed anymore–plus the financial costs of buying, maintaining, fueling, and insuring a car when I only went short distances once a week.
What stresses you out, physically or chemically that you can choose to “let go of” in order to live freer?
I left my home state at 22 years of age because I couldn’t breathe there. Physically, the area I was born and raised in was called, The Chemical Valley. And I was diagnosed and treated with asthma from the time I was six years of age. When I was about eight years old we visited Florida, due to a death of a close family friend, and I found I could BREATHE free and clear for the first time in my life. And I loved the beach and palm trees. I told my dad, “I want to live in Florida”! And my wonderful Dad helped make that a reality for me, though it took many years. Mom only moved because she had to. Mom loved our home state.
We Are ALL Connected and the decisions of others can and do influence, push, or pull us to the degree we ALLOW.
Layers levels doses degrees fractal meme by Spiral Sister
Finding Truth
Have you examined something so intricately that while on the surface looked uninteresting or untrue, but then upon digging further you found hidden truths?
Perhaps finding truth simply means examining the levels of life and layers more closely. I think most people don’t want to work that hard. They don’t want to keep digging to uncover the truth because it might mean they’ll have to change something about themselves or how they live life.
Why do myths persist?
There must be at least some truth to the “old wives’ tales,” no?
We can study life in a matter of degrees; too hot, too cold and too much or little information. ALL of life comes down (can be explained) by working through the layers, levels, doses, and degrees.
The unexamined life is not worth living, right?

(I’m singing) I am so glad I am so blessed. I am so grateful for all that I am. I am so blessed.
That’s usually the song we sing at the end of every Reiki circle. So that’s why (I said what I said before) about last week when Victoria played the song “You are so beautiful” (it really struck a different chord with me). Tonight, I asked her who sang that. Whose version of that song was that? And she said, Jordan–a man. It’s a gentleman singing it but she said you wouldn’t know, would you? And I said no, I was thinking it was Christina Aguilera. Or, Adele singing that song. I just knew it was a person I hadn’t heard before. I could not place the voice. And no, I have not heard of the gentleman named Jordan Smith.
I tell you every Tuesday night Reiki is just a new experience. It feels like I know part of that’s because we have new folks that come sometimes the same people don’t come every week or every circle. And we won’t be back now for two more weeks. We’re now moving to a new schedule of every week. We’ll meet on the first Tuesday of every month and the third Tuesday of every month. So all right, well, and again, I’ll post the link to meet up so that you have that if you’re anywhere in the St Pete Bradenton Sarasota area of Florida, or within a reasonable drive. I know sometimes five miles through Bradenton, Sarasota, and Palmetto can take a lot of time. It just depends on traffic. (Not that I am complaining as we love to see new people moving to Florida.) We are grateful.
More people moving to Florida
I am so grateful for more people moving to Florida because that’s just more people to connect with, exchange and share ideas with, and learn from. Victoria gave me a beautiful blessing tonight and implanted a thought in my head about starting a new business and having clients so and while most of you know that I did run a program a couple of years ago during the ‘demic times I had put together something called, Integrated Spiral but now I’m renaming and rebranding it, Integrating the Spirals because it’s more than one spiral.
Going round in spiral circles to learn lessons
We often go round and round the circle until we learn our lessons and break patterns. We have to repeat certain things in our life It seems like several times before we get them. So that’s part of where this comes from, as well as integrating because we’re always balancing. We’re dancing with nature and the universe and you know, the religious upbringing that we don’t always agree with 100% of the time, I don’t think I’ve talked with anyone who subscribes to us a particular religion or a specific church or faith that agrees with 100% It’s just like politics. You pick the people that you like, based on usually at least some of the topics of the issues of the day, right that you’re on their side. But you may not agree with 100% of who that person is and how they behaved things. They say stuff they tweet, you know.
We often have our issues with politics and religion and don’t agree with everything they believe in
So we all have our issues and we have our issues with different people, different religions, different issues. Yeah, I mean, it could be anything right? It could be the country you live in the state you live in the city you live in. I mean, it seems like there’s no perfect fit. It’s not like we’re Goldilocks, or we might be Goldilocks, and we run around trying on different things. But that’s why I tend not to use the word perfect or perfection because I really don’t believe in it. I don’t think that would be a utopia and this world. This earth is not meant to be a utopia. This is a school where we all have an opportunity to learn. Unless we’re a captive, you know, we have an opportunity to learn, and even a captive.
I’ve often thought what’s the worst thing that could ever happen to me in my life? And people have asked that question, you know, icebreakers and stuff like that and I always go to being held captive or in bondage or tortured that kind of thing. Because, obviously, a person in that situation and I pray for those every single day you know, that’s, that’s always like a mission like a bottom line prayer. I’m gonna say every single day that I’m alive and I’m free because I value freedom so much. I’m always praying for the releasing of the hostages releasing of those in bondage releasing of those that have been kidnapped and you know, that kind of thing. I just have a heart for anybody that’s trapped and I know exactly where that comes from because my mother for many years felt trapped. So that was something that she worked on in her life, you know, was released that and for her, the end anyway, of her life was Alzheimer’s. So she just let go of her mind. And she wasn’t trapped anymore, right? Because she didn’t have the mindset around being trapped. Um, but anyway, I know that was a spiral thought.
I value FREEDOM
I value freedom (and choice) above every other value I have. Every other virtue I can think of, because I’ve already come to terms with the truth and lies, and I see those as the yin and yang, the black and the white, the right side of the coin, the left side of the coin, you know, everything is truth, if you turn it round enough times and you change your perspective on it, and that’s why in Integrating the Spirals I have classes where I teach little tips, tricks, tactics if you will, strategies for doing that and it can really help you, at least mentally and logically, think through some issues and be able to release a lot of tension,release a lot of aggravation, and release a lot of judgment. And in fact, you won’t even judge it anymore once you work these processes and especially if you practice them. Releases come as we with the mirror ball.
As we work with the mirror ball there’s a specific process I take folks through on how to work with it to look at a situation from many different perspectives. And in the end, it’s really cool, but I won’t give it away here. And then one of the other tools we work with is a kaleidoscope and I’ve been starting to hear some people mention kaleidoscopes in their work and in their programs just in the last couple of years.
Putting it in the zeitgeist
So I definitely think it’s in the zeitgeist. I think a tool we played with as a child, we put it down. Most never picked it up again. I never did until my eldest granddaughter asked me when she was very young for a kaleidoscope. I had forgotten all about it too. But now I’m using it in the sessions that I have with Integrating the Spirals. And I’ve got to tell you that it’s so profound and powerful this work because we all have some sort of like at the bottom of all of our fears and phobias and anxieties and distrust and doubts and negative self-talk and all of that is always like this feeling of unworthiness or being broken.
When you work with the kaleidoscope, you realize that all of these broken pieces, and I’m giving you a nugget here from the sessions, that’s one of the realizations that you have all those broken pieces are what you’re able to use and different ways to look through that kaleidoscope and see different patterns and some of the neat things that you may perceive and take away from that work is that we’re play if you will, is the fact that there’s always a different pattern. And none of those patterns are wrong because art is always imperfect. There’s no perfection in art. Another thing that my eldest granddaughter taught me when she was about five I think. Yeah. And again, it just confirmed and validated for me why I didn’t use the word perfection.
No Perfection in Art
I’ve never used that and have never been hung up on it. But I know a lot of people who have and so working with the Kaleidoscope and the mirror ball and some of the other tools that I have one of which is communing with trees as well. Getting getting you back to nature even if you’re divorced from nature, and you hate nature. You know there’s still a way to work with nature and commune with the trees. Of course, I developed this after we got back from Ireland in 2019. So I have a lot of tools at my disposal and now with Reiki and completing my master’s and Reiki this April. I do feel that I have a lot to offer. And I don’t know if it will replace my current daily income. But I know that it’s something that my heart it’s my heart’s desires to really help people. If possible, we can at least release some of the items and issues that we keep repeating in our lives and you know, hopefully, these tools, tips, tricks, techniques, and strategies. These classes will help you release and let go of some of those. I don’t think we ever get out. You know, having accomplished it all. Abraham Hicks says, you know, we’re always happily incomplete. We’ll never get it done. And that is supposed to help us release some of this efforting and some of this feeling as well, we have to get everything done on our task list before we leave the earth. Abraham just says that’s not going to happen–getting it all done. So if you can just work on one today–great! Just release that, let it go and be the “I am” in this moment, utterly grateful, happily and blissfully–incomplete. Namaste.

I’m an Amazon bestselling author of two co-authored books: “Transform Your Life Book 2 Inspirational Stories and Expert Advice” and “Energy of Receiving” available on Amazon. Plus, I documented how I naturally reversed 30+ years of chronic asthma in my holistic health book, Take It Upon Yourself to Live a Wholly Vibrant Life, that’s available on Barnes and Noble with the second edition coming out soon on Amazon.
I had quite a spiritual experience. So Reiki tonight was so exciting because there was another Sheila there and I love her already. Just her energy. You know, it was just amazing. She’s originally from Brooklyn, New York. And you know, that has nothing to do with it. Right? (I’d spent time working there in 2000). It’s spirit all the way (guiding this) and I’ll explain why.
So we always have almost a little Meet and Greet at the beginning of each evening. That’s how we can learn about each other just a little bit, introduce ourselves. And we talk about a particular topic tonight.
Topic: What does Reiki mean to you?
It was What does Reiki mean to you? So to each person when we introduced ourselves, we talked a little bit about what Reiki means to us what we think it is, how we interpret it, if we feel anything either, while we’re giving or receiving Reiki, and so forth.
Then we have a little break and people can snack, go to the restroom, whatever. And then we go into meditation. And we have meditation and Reiki and Victoria our Reiki master walks us through a meditation those of us who are giving Reiki have a process that we go through and then we work on the person now during the break, the people who are receiving Reiki have to pick a practitioner, they will because practitioners don’t want to like force themselves on people. So that’s, that’s how it goes.
Alright, so that said, Sheila picked me to work on her. And that was beautiful. You know, I was like, great. And so as I’m working on her. I’m picking up a little bit more feeling like every time I practice Reiki and every time I give Reiki to a person this distance Reiki I feel a little bit more or I feel different things sometimes I’m feeling in my body which I figure because I’m an empath, right like I feel God bumps for sure. Like strong usually write when I start so that to me, it’s signaling or letting me know you know that God’s Spirit is with me. Right and the Reiki is on, in other words, so that’s how I interpreted it anyway. And so that happens. And then I’m usually directed to do certain things with my hands above the person’s head and then I put my hands on their head. And so it’s like giving a blessing. And then on their shoulders and then go into the whole Reiki practice.
What I receive during Reiki
Sometimes I get a vision of something, or like a picture of something. It’s not like a movie. You know, it’s not like I’m watching a movie. It’ll be just like a flash of something or an outline of something, or an image of something. Almost like if you’re turning pages in a magazine just quickly, so I got a flash of a guardrail because Sheila had told me that she’s a mom, and she had her daughter. And as mothers, most of us mothers are enmeshed in our children’s lives, no matter how old they are.
I won’t go into her specific details. But to say that there there was an issue and so she’s kind of enmeshed in that issue with her daughter. And so, you know, through the filter of my lens, I see that as concern and worry. Yeah, just care overall, as we care about our children. And what’s happening in their lives. Um, so I just had that as the issue or the need, right? It’s just to kind of like help her. As I’m doing the Reiki just asking for the or setting the intention of asking the energies to just like kind of help her feel better, right? And just like, easy about it all and let it go, let it go. You know, that kind of thing. So what was coming to me with this flash of the guardrail was like, to let her know just be there when your daughter like when she starts to go off the edge of the road, kind of like the guardrail is there but the guardrail doesn’t completely stop the car. And the guardrail doesn’t like isn’t part of the cars, journey or drive past it. If you can get my analogy here, the guard, it’s not like you’re playing bumper cars with the guardrail, right? The guardrail is just there. The guard rails are there. It’s almost like it’s a safety device, you know, but it’s not interfering.
So that’s that was what I was getting was like this is the mother’s role now in the child, the grown adult child’s life, just be the guardrail, you know? But I didn’t go into all that with her. I just said a couple of words to her. After that, I didn’t want to like have her mind grab onto my words and then just take that I just wanted her to rely on the receiving of the Reiki, right? I’m not there to implant any thoughts or ideas in someone’s mind.
Here’s where it gets cool. So as I’m finishing up with Sheila, I am, I go to sit down after I’m complete. And as I go to sit down, I see. I looked down and I see that on her left wrist, she had it this just occurred to me it was a spiral you know, it’s one of those things like you carry your keys on. That’s a little bendy. A jumper is like a spiral springy thing, so I thought it was a bracelet actually, when I saw it on her until I began recording this. I’m realizing it was more of the springy rubber but I can’t even think how to describe it. It was a spiral. And it was been bendable and springy. And maybe it was plastic. I’m not sure. But at the time when I looked down, all I saw was a bracelet and it was blue and it was the exact color blue that I wrote blue eyes about for Christina (my sibling who lived less than a day). Spiral thought: I used to always say Christina was my unborn sibling but she was born she just lived less than a day (that’s all explained in the book Blue Eyes: Ethereal Messages of Connection).
So as I sit down then of course I have this blue color in my mind, so to be scientific about it, you know there I was. I did see that and then I closed my eyes and I went right into meditation with Victoria for the rest of the meditation part of session. And as I’m meditating, I get what is just normal to get for me to see my field of vision turn blue with my eyes closed and it does its full dance. It’s almost like watching the smoke rise above the fire. That’s kind of what I get. And that tells me that Christina is with me. So I already knew she was with me. And now I’m seeing that, if you will a manifestation of it, just with my eyes closed, you know, a visual of her energy with me.
I don’t know if that lasted five or 10 minutes, but I was already really kind of caught up and just oh you know gratitude. Like I was just filled with immense gratitude. Thank you. Thank you. I did a few more things with my hands. I know I sent some emotional healing over to Sheila still sitting right next to me and to myself. You know just asking for Reiki energy just Yes, continue to work on us. And even though I’m done like physically standing behind/beside her and doing these actions, you know, just leave Reiki on and just continue to be. Our minds as mothers, you know, who have grown adult children.
The woo-woo part of the spiritual experience
So anyway, here’s where it gets, like whoo, whoo, I guess.
Victoria has never done this before. Out of all the sessions I’ve been to, she’s never put on a particular song, a different song. We always use the same song and we always sing. And we do um, and that. Okay, so tonight she didn’t do that she used a completely different song. It was a female voice. I do not know who the singer was usually I’m good with it. You can ask my husband. He’s always helped. If I hear a song, I haven’t heard that. 30 years. I’ll know who the singer is by their voice. I just have an ear for singers and voices. You know, like, I’ll know was Whitney Houston? It could have been when they used them but I never heard her sing the song. So the song was You are so beautiful. It could have even been Christina Aguilera because I know she’s saying it but I haven’t. I may have only heard her sing it once so you know, it could have been a different version of her singing maybe I didn’t recognize her voice. But typically I’m good with picking out who the singer is. I have no idea who was singing for us. But the closest I could imagine would be Whitney Houston or Christina Aguilera. But, you know, I give it up for whoever it was because she did an amazing job and sang beautifully. And so as I’m hearing the song though, the imagery comes to me that Christina is singing this to me. And it’s my sister’s voice and maybe that’s why I don’t know who the real singer was right? But it was my sister’s voice Christina’s voice singing it to me singing the song to me. You’re everything I hoped for. Do you know? And I mean just every piece of the lyrics.
It goes deeper
It just kept going deeper and deeper in me and I’m crying now reliving this it was 10 minutes ago, but I was crying like tears. I was bawling. But I mean, I was like tears started streaming from my eyes. And I was like, I don’t want this to end because it was so loving, you know, and then before the song ended, I was singing it to Christina. So I was telling her I was looking at the blue. I was seeing her blue energy dancing behind my closed eyes. And I was singing a song back to her. Then it was the two of us singing it to our mom and dad and me realizing I’m always saying my mom, my dad, my sister. Well, our, and I don’t think I’ve ever done that before. I’ll have to look in the book. Did I even ever write it that way in the book, our mom and our dad, you know what I mean? So when we were announcing it to them, you’re you were so beautiful. You are so beautiful to me. And we were singing that to each of our parents whom we picked. But as I tell in the book, she chose not to come. She chose to go back, you know, and we all have this conscious choice.
Frequency
So during the healing session, one of the flashes that I had. I’m not saying I’m good enough to know if it was for Sheila or me right? But, yeah, one of the flashes that I had was that this issue of choice and of fear, too, and that fear. We just that’s just a word. Okay. But what that is, is a frequency. Right. And so everything that happens to us in spirit, and of course as in Christina’s case, in my sibling’s case, she was a fetus you know, an egg and sperm and fetus and baby, right? So, in those months of developing in our mother’s womb, see, again, I started saying my mother, our mother’s womb. So she was picking up all of the frequencies around her. If you can imagine, you know, when you swim in the water, how sound you know, if somebody calls your name, and you’re not underwater, you hear it one way but if they call your name while you’re underneath the water, you hear something that you hear differently, right? So imagine that baby in the womb picking up all these frequencies. So when she told me this was years ago, I remember it like it was yesterday.
Fear
So while I was in the hypnosis session with Patricia McGivern, and, and while I was meeting Christina, she was telling me because it was like, Why didn’t you come you know, why didn’t you call I loved you. I know I loved you. I was a baby too. I was less than two years old. At that time when she was born and subsequently died. But you know that my mom and dad like my mom so sad that she lost Christina and that, you know, they loved her and they wanted her she was so wanted, you know, why would she choose not to come? Because she said no, I chose not to. Well, then it was the issue of fear. I won’t give it all away because of the book but suffice it to say it wasn’t so she let me know tonight it wasn’t that she used the word fear and maybe not even in the same like definition as we would understand that term now. But we’re all looking at life through our lens through our perception of everything that we’ve lived. And so each step of the way in our lives, and that we wouldn’t have gone wouldn’t have had that obstacle or taken that step. We wouldn’t have been faced with certain challenges in our lives if it wasn’t for a reason. And so, part of that is that we are navigating this like a sea of frequencies. And so she was just in her baby state, navigating the sea of frequencies and fell off to her, you know, and so, she gave me the word fear, you know, all those years ago, but it wasn’t like a fear like Boo. It wasn’t like fear. Like, you know, you’re running from the bad man or you know, whatever, right? It wasn’t like any kind of like scary horror, fear, it was fear. She used the word fear, just to let me know it was the different frequency of energy, and that’s what felt after her.
Babies can make choices
And so she’s a baby. And she made that choice. She made that distinction in that decision. So she was discerning even as the spirit in this baby’s body like in that space of liquid you know that the baby’s in. So, I mean, it’s all very deep. But then again, it’s simple too so it’s sort of complex, but convoluted. But I think that every time I’m in meditation, she gives me a little bit more. It’s just she’s helping me step by step to understand how it’s not complex and complicated. It’s just that I don’t have an understanding that she has, you know because she’s seeing the broader, much broader universal picture of everything from her perspective, versus mine.
Limited perspective
I’m in a limited, I have a limited view of things and limited perception, even though of course, I’m always working to expand my consciousness and educate myself and look at life from myriad and multiple perspectives and that’s why I love teaching, the things that I do share the kaleidoscope and the mirror ball and all the different tools and tips and techniques that I use when I have sessions with people because yes, there’s it’s just nobody has all the answers. It’s just because we’re we are a fractal of omniscience, looking at life through a very limited lens, even if we have many, many, many years of experience and education, and all different kinds of degrees. and whatnot. Alright, I’ll leave it there for now. Happily, incomplete.

Driving home from Reiki circle tonight. Tonight’s circle is a free Tuesday night healing session.
Each week we discuss one subject
Every time we sit in a circle and each time there’s a specific topic.
Spiral thought: I love to record (while driving) obviously for my blog but for myself even too. So I remember and I kind of go ahead and imprint that into the cells of my body, the subject that we spoke about.
So the subject tonight was spirituality. Huge subject I know and one that of course, I can ‘spiral thought‘ about it in all kinds of ways I don’t even recall exactly what I said. Because when we had our turn to speak about what the word meant to us, we introduced ourselves first, and then we could mention why we were there or how we came to be in the circle. And how we met our Reiki master Victoria, or anything else we want to share, and then talk about what the word means to us. Well, tonight, of course, the word is spirituality. I didn’t want to have any preconceived notions on what to say.
Spiral
Probably had I given it very much thought I would have said the spiral symbolizes spirituality for me especially now after 2019 and coming to know more about the petroglyphs, markings, and engravings on the walls of the ancient burial temple/burial chamber of Newgrange but also the rocks, giant boulders–the huge neolithic stones of Newgrange and Knowth.
So, the spiral is one of the most ancient symbols and to me, the word spiral is encased and enshrined in the words spirit and spirituality. I know that that’s where they take spires from as well and there’s usually always a spire on top of a cathedral or a church, a house of worship. So there’s that.
When I say spiral thoughts about spirituality, I can go off in many different directions with it. Its spirituality can be a belief system. A way of life. It’s how you interact with what’s external to you. So you may believe this idea that we’re spirit and we’re clothed or wrapped in human tissue. We’re Spirit coming to earth to live and experience life in this earthly body or vessel or temple. And so we’re constantly aware of our environment and surroundings. We’re aware of nature. We’re open to nature. And I know that I spoke about being open which was one of a part of my answer about what I think spirituality is. Or how do I view that turn spirituality it’s also about learning and growing and practicing, because I can read about something all day long, but if I never bring it in, if I don’t open to it and allow it to come into me, and become intimate with it and integrate it into my physicality. I’m not experiencing it. And so to do that, for me, it becomes a practice or it needs to become a practice.
An example, breathwork
So breathwork is an example. Spirit is breath. Breath is Spirit. This is the ether that surrounds us all. It’s like if you were fish, the water would be what surrounds you, but we’re, we’re air-breathing creatures, mammals. So the air is our ether. It’s what surrounds us. So we’re breathing spirit in with every breath. And then as we exhale, we’re exhaling chemically something different compounds, you know, breathing in oxygen, nitrogen we’re breathing out carbon dioxide. So technically what we’re breathing in is different than what we’re breathing out. And just remember from elementary school that trees were the opposite. They would breathe in, what we breathe out, and then they would give us or add to the oxygen in our environment.
Symbiotic nature
So we’ve got this symbiotic nature. Sadhguru says that trees are the other half of our lungs. For that very reason. Right? So I breathe in. What the tree breathes out, the tree breathes then when I breathe out, pretty cool. So we’re interacting, or we’re the yin and yang. with nature. And specifically trees in my example, but you know, it can be any living thing and I believe even the rocks are living. Because I’ve experienced a real I’ve had relationship with various rocks and stones crystals. So it’s not just the things that have a pulse that is alive. Or the things like trees that have Sapt running through them.
So it’s not just about blood, water, a liquid something inside of something that makes it alive. But I do think there’s a consciousness involved in all living things. I don’t think my opinion is that if something isn’t alive, there’s no consciousness. So I know part of my answer tonight was expanding consciousness.
If we are alive, and we’re always in this interactive dance spirit, by the act of breathing, then spirituality is us becoming conscious and aware of the dance of the symbiotic relationship. So we can keep this minimal or we can go as deep with this as you want. But I would be curious about what you write in the comments. What your idea of spirituality is, you know, is it a philosophy? Is it a practice? Is it awareness? Is it consciousness? Do you agree that yeah, we can decide to close off from it if we want to, you know, out of fear some people do?
Let’s say when you’re a child, and you’re scared of the dark at night, and the monster in the closet, that kind of thing, the monster under the bed, you know, there’s still adults that won’t sleep with because I’ve had this experience myself where as an adult, I wouldn’t sleep with my hand overhanging over the edge of the bed. I mean, that just seems like such a silly fear to have. But there’s still some element to something being under the bed. I mean, the stuff of scary movies, right?
Fear is in the mind
I don’t know why it’s almost like as a human, we have to, if we’re not scared of things where we don’t have fear, then we go about doing things to create it. And so whether that’s an action of the mind so that there’s always the yin and yang there’s always the push-pull. There’s always contrast in our mind to keep the brain working and alive. I don’t know. But it wouldn’t surprise me because it seems like a lot of times we make up unfounded fears, just to keep ourselves on our toes, and to keep our senses or to keep ourselves challenged.
Spirituality
I’ll come back around to Spirituality. When we are with a group of people agree with, ah! What a feeling! We agree that spirituality is more than religion. It transcends religion. You don’t need religion as an organization of thought, or structure or ritual, ritualistic practices, certain dates on the calendar, things like that, which puts structure around spirituality. But spirituality in and of itself is just like the act of breathing. It’s just there. It’s always there. In hours of meditation I learned that spirit was all there was at the beginning of time at the beginning of creation. It is said if you have a void and then you have something created within the void, I mean, the void by definition is void. So how can matter exist in it? Just popping into existence in a void doesn’t happen scientifically anyway, so they say well, it was the spirit, spirit input, a spirit entered the void.
Spirit put the first matter into that space, which is the dot. You know, there was the one, and the one split and became two, and then the two forms and there were three. It’s like the first cell. When the first cell split and then create from the two, they create the third and so on.
Yeah, like I said, I can have spiral thoughts about spirituality because I see it as internal breathing in, so I’m internalizing spirit. I am spirit. And then I am externalizing spirit, by my growth, by my awareness of witnessing my growth and also being committed to a series of practices that exemplify or that display. My spirituality might be putting my hands in prayer position, lighting a candle, saying a prayer, singing a praise song. Performing an act of kindness, random act of kindness, or giving, donating something, tithing. You know, all those are outward gestures of the inner spiritual belief system and the inner spirituality. I mean, I can have a belief system all day long, but if I don’t believe in my belief system, and I don’t act from it, then I’m not you know, portraying or displaying my spirituality, right? So my spirituality might be completely different than what my religion is, or, you know, the tactics that one says that I’m supposed to use to be quote-unquote, “be good,” whatever the religion is, you know, a good Catholic, a good Christian, Muslim a good Buddhist whatever, right?
In closing
So I thought I’d share this tonight with you and get some feedback from you and see what your thoughts are about it and open this can of worms I know that I’ve written a lot about omniscience before about God about different religions that I do or don’t agree with. So spirituality is much more free-flowing. Yes, we shall say free flowing and just like the breath, there’s an ebb and a flow to it. And you can observe it or you can choose to run from it and hide from it. if it’s something that you fear. Just like the sun, it’s always there. we just may have our back turned toward it. And as the Earth vows to the sun eastward, I bow to the east, every morning and give thanks for the sun for you and our connectedness.
And with that, I will close. Much love, many blessings, and always Peace.

I’m an Amazon bestselling author of two co-authored books: “Transform Your Life Book 2 Inspirational Stories and Expert Advice” and “Energy of Receiving” available on Amazon. Plus, I documented how I naturally reversed 30+ years of chronic asthma in my holistic health book, Take It Upon Yourself to Live a Wholly Vibrant Life, that’s available on Barnes and Noble with the second edition coming out soon on Amazon.
I recorded this just after leaving a recent Tuesday night Reiki circles. I wanted to come to you with a few thoughts because I usually opened up from flowing Reiki energy and feeling the GodBumps. And singing the song at the end and holding hands. Tonight we had almost all new attendees at the circle (again). (This was recorded 17-Jan-2023). I continue to see the symbols in my mind’s eye and a word drops in, Interactions.
Interactions
Maybe integrating the spiral is simply about our interactions with things like our interactions with books, that people that we’ve received from people that people have written, that in the margins have the words like my mother’s Bible that I use to understand her mind and what she was learning and what she was pulling from and interacting with spirit during her reading of her Bible, that she would make those notes in the margins and I love that because it gives me a clue gives me insights into what she was thinking at that time at that precise moment. So we’re also interacting with symbols.
The cross
The only thing the cross is good for is crossing over. That’s the symbolism of the cross. We’re crossing over. Why else would we celebrate a torture device? Why would we wear a symbol of a torture device some the place where Jesus was crucified where he anguished languish and succumbed to death? Of course, as Christians, we believe that Jesus, you know, beat death. He went to hell. He intervened, and he did his work. He did his shadow work, maybe in hell for three days. We’re told.
So we see the cross as a symbol of the resurrection. But the cross was his means of death, his means of transformation, his torture device. So it’s like that saying about why did we fear the witches instead of those who Burn them alive? It’s the same kind of thought that applies here. So I’ve never been big on wearing a cross or using the cross in any of my messages. But I can see the importance of it. And one particular aspect is the crossing over. And that intersection between heaven and earth, and light and dark.
Yin Yang symbol
I prefer the yin and yang symbol . Yin and Yang. After learning of this symbol and after meditating on it, and seeing it breathing and pulsating and pulsing and being in a rhythm. And watching that wavy line in the middle, which to me symbolizes balancing. Be about the wave in the ocean. You know, it’s ebb and flow always signifies that you never get it done. And that’s what Abraham says–that you never get it done.
So, quit striving for perfection. Enjoy and milk the joy out of everything. Milk the joy out of your day, out of each moment, and out of each breath! We are never guaranteed another breath when you embrace that sit with that every breath is sacred.
Every breath is sacred
You are aware that every breath is sacred. Every thought is a prayer! We were taught and told in the Holy Scriptures to pray without ceasing. How else would you pray without ceasing? I mean, you’re gonna pray you’re gonna then do something you’re gonna get disrupted with the children or with your work or with your boss calling or your husband needing something you know what I mean? So the only way we can pray without ceasing, is by honoring each breath is sacred.
Just my thought for today. I do. I’ve been wanting to get this down, and now seems like a good place to do it.
Living prayer
A few days ago, my mom woke me up–and my mom is on the Other Side, in the Grand Beyond. She woke me up I think we had a few minutes together that I forgot. Completely lost most of the dream, but the takeaway was, (as I was waking) her last words to me were, “Your aura is a living prayer.” Your aura is a living prayer. And then I saw my chakras. I saw the spinning wheels of the vortex energy, the light photons spinning. I saw them opening each chakra. And then what my intention was. And finally, what my thoughts were. All of this was mind-work (in my mind). I saw my aura forming and interfacing from that spinning vortex energy going out into the aura. My aura contained all of that. And that was the living prayer. And doesn’t that lead us to discover and put more meat around a concept Gregg Braden teaches, that the Universe is a Living Organism? I will explore this in my next Reiki post (if the Universe is willing). OM

Good evening or good morning. I recorded this just after leaving one of my Tuesday night Reiki circles. I wanted to come to you with a few thoughts because I usually opened up from flowing Reiki energy and feeling the GodBumps. And singing the song at the end and holding hands. Tonight we had almost all new attendees at the circle. (This was recorded 3-Jan-2023)
One of the other participants was running a little late as he had been ill. And so he was the only other one that was there who had been in my Reiki one and two level certification classes. Everybody else was new.
It was amazing though, and I learned. Here’s what I learned.
Wow. So you know, I had practiced Reiki before just recently getting my level one and level two certifications. But that was I was certified back in 2009. So and I really hadn’t kept up with it and I hadn’t practiced it. I was feeling the energy then. But I didn’t know then what I know now. And I didn’t call the energy GodBumps. I didn’t even really say goosebumps. I just felt it and noticed it. And I really didn’t even start to delve into what it could be why was where it was coming from any of that. I just simply felt it. And I observed it and I made a mental note of what I was doing. At that moment I was feeling GodBumps. You can search this site for more of my descriptions of what GodBumps are ore read this previous post: https://sheilamurrey.net/2022/12/29/after-christmas-thoughts-on-consciousness/
Fast forward all these years now. So I started feeling GodBumps in 2005 I actually remember feeling GodBumps while I was in a conversation with a lady at work. She was Anglican and I didn’t even know what that was. We were having a little discussion about the Anglican Church, religion, God, and my views on spirituality. And she was quite open to hearing that. And that’s when I felt the GodBumps.
I was also doing the raw vegan diet in 2008. And so at that time, I would go into bookstores and coffee shops and raw vegan cafes and things like that, and I would get into these conversations with complete strangers. But because we were talking about things that were healthful and uplifting to the body the raw food and healing disease naturally. Homeopathy and naturopath and muscle testing and we were having all these kinds of conversations. And so every time I get a conversation with someone even at the health food store, I would have feel the GodBumps. But again, the only thing I could attach or connect the feeling to was the subject of the conversations. I didn’t really know anything else about it.
Now, fast forward to now Reiki level one, Reiki level two, and doing these certifications. Maybe it’s not for the piece of paper and to be able to say that I’m certified in Reiki but it is to qualify or quantify or organize the information in a better way for me to continue to practice it and hold it and be able to learn the protection. I probably learned it in one or two of the class I took in 2009 but I didn’t practice it enough for it to stick. So I didn’t use the protection or turn the Reiki light on, as we say before each session and before doing anything actually before driving the car whatever.
To remember to do that and to be practiced so that the muscle memory takes over which is the reason we practice these things any modality or sports to improve your performance. You/we practice so it becomes muscle memory. Dancing is that way, okay? So the reason (to get certified in Reiki) is not just for the piece of paper, but the reason is to get through the experience again with all of these new people so it will stick with me.
And so you see the same people in each session. You’re building layers upon layers of the cellophane energ–I speak about the cellophane and my book, Blue Eyes: Ethereal Messages of Connection–if you don’t know what I’m talking about, and most people won’t. But there are layers and layers of energy and energy fields and if you’re studying with Nassim Haramein, you hear people talking about the new quantum physics. If you’re interested in those things and you’re learning about those, you don’t know how to work the radio, you don’t know how the radio works, right sending the pieces of music and all those notes to the airwaves but you know that if you tune your radio correctly to the right station, the right frequency, the radio will play the music for you.
So it’s the same with Reiki and the more you practice and the more you are attuned when you certify and the more you practice, then upon that, it’s like getting a clearer and clearer signal. So tonight here we’ve got new people. So I say all that to tell you that what I learned now is that even people who came tonight who had only been through Reiki level one. And it had been years ago just like me when I first went a few months ago when I met Victoria and I started going. They are in the exact same spot now as I had been.
We were asking them because it was only three of us to more than six of us in the room. I think there were eight and there were three of us who were performing, if you will, Reiki or channeling or flowing Reiki energy, whatever terminology you want to use. Three of us were giving Reiki tonight. So, Victoria (our Reiki Master), told everyone that even though a couple of you have definitely done level one in the past and even though it’s been years ago. Perhaps this is your night to get gain a little bit of confidence and go ahead and give and practice on each other if you’d like.
Well, of course, we start going and in my head, my academic mind, I just sort of let go of the know-how part the organization of the information part and I just tune in with my heart and I go to the neutral place and I become the channel I become the flower of the energy I become the empty vessel of which Source, Spirit, God Omniscience. The Reiki Masters flow the energy through. I set my intention for the recipients, which is their intention. And before I knew it, I was giving Reiki to three different people before it was said and done. And actually, the third person when I went to give her Reiki, asked me if she could give it to me. And I thought, what, but she’s only level one. But then, just as soon as I had this thought, I could not. The next thought was, it doesn’t matter. What do you always talk about Sheila, what do you talk about on Clubhouse?
When I was in Clubhouse I had a room called, Spirituality without the training wheels. Because once you’re connected to spirit, and once you’re connected to Omniscience God Source Creator. You’re connected to the Energy. ALL of the organizations are wonderful. You know, the church, the church service, the training wheels, and the guides. That’s all wonderful, but you don’t need the guides really. You can freestyle it now; you’re a free wheel. You’re a free spirit. So you know what your intention is. They know what they’re asking for, and what their needs are. Now you’re just making this energetic handshake. And you’re making this connection energetically to flow the energy through one person as the performer to the receiver. And just about cost. Okay, beautiful. I got it. So I know that’s my spiral way of getting to my point. I learned that you don’t have to be certified at the different levels, you’ve already gained an attunement, you do you would have to have at least a level one Reiki and attunement in order to practice Reiki or flow Reiki energy, again, that’s a type of energy. Omniscience is all energies, right?
It’s the yin and yang symbol. It’s sacred geometry. It’s the unified field that everything hangs on. So all the Reiki symbols hang, just like if you’d look in your picture in your mind’s eye a scaffolding or a chain link fence. And now you’re taking these symbols and Reiki language. It’s the Reiki symbols, but it could be anything else and you’re hanging. Let’s say it’s a million crosses, and the cross is your symbol. Hang the cross symbol on the scaffolding. Okay, the universe Omniscience God is providing the scaffolding and you’re just hanging the symbols on it to remind you, it’s not that you’re praying to the cross or that you need the cross to save you you’re being reminded that the cross is a symbol of salvation, or it could be a symbol of rebirth in general and regeneration. It can be a symbol of rebirth. You know, it could symbolize a lot of things for you. And that’s the same thing with all the symbology with the Ganesha with the praying to the statue of Mary. All of that. It’s all the same thing.
Those symbols/statues/images or such are just reminders of those deities/divine essence or presence and in our English language you know, we write in symbols, each letter in the alphabet is a symbol. So there’s no like heaven or hell good or bad ascribed to each symbol–it just is. And it is whatever it reminds you of, you might attach to the first letter of your name, and every time you see that first letter of your name it reminds you of you know, and maybe your Thanksgiving of being here on the planet. So that’s what I learned tonight. Even level one Reiki initiated can give Reiki and I felt it. I felt the energy run through my body and be in a place of gratitude, as always Everything Resolves to Gratitude.
It’s best to be out of your head and into your heart and into the feeling place so that you can experience the love and the sheer joy of these types of energy work. And do these types of healing modalities. Every cell in your body will thank you. Yes, ALL 50 to 70 to 100 trillion cells, whatever’s in there. They’re dancing, and they’re thanking you for putting yourself with like-minded people in a situation where you can receive. Be open to receiving many blessings and always is my prayer for you this evening. Thank you.

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.

About us
My husband is an award-winning illustrator, plus he’s a seasoned guitarist, bass player, and songwriter (with over 400 original songs). You can view some of his artwork and listen to all of his songs at: http://listen4music.com
I would love to speak at your bookstore, crystal shop, acupuncture/chiropractor office, natural health foods store, art fair, music, or yoga festival. I support healthy lifestyle businesses.
I’m an Amazon bestselling author of two co-authored books: “Transform Your Life Book 2 Inspirational Stories and Expert Advice” and “Energy of Receiving” available on Amazon. Plus, I documented how I naturally reversed 30+ years of chronic asthma in my holistic health book, Take It Upon Yourself to Live a Wholly Vibrant Life, that’s available on Barnes and Noble with the second edition coming out soon on Amazon.
Two days after hurricane Ian ripped through Florida, making landfall about 35 miles south of where we live, my husband, Richard, suffered a stroke.
Richard had a few new songs in progress at the time his stroke occurred. He had literally just finished the music for this, but hadn’t sang it yet, within hours of having the stroke. Once again proof that the hurricane caused his stroke, or was the straw that broke the camels back at the least. Stress and over exertion is what I will forever blame. And the lack of useable communication from the power company that holds the monopoly over where we live in Florida. Ugh.
When we listened to this song, that we got back from our Nashville, Tennessee studio today, we cried. Literal tears fell on our faces because we turned our upset (about the storm and lack of actionable communication from FPL) into art!
Ready?
Here’s the song! (It’s not me singing; we hire professional singers who do studio work in Nashville, TN):
We are integrating
We’re focused on learning new ways to cook and eat. New ways to save money. New activities to improve our physical bodies, such as moving more, walking, working out with our Yamuna balls and other rehab type gym equipment, and taking more time to sit together and hold hands.
Now, I am Reiki certified for levels I and II. I have an herbal class on my schedule to accomplish in December and then I will be working on reaching the Masters level Reiki in January. I give my husband Reiki every other day now and send distance Reiki to anyone who asks (I have a schedule for this). I have also been contacted to help with communications for Dr. Raymond Moody of Life After Life! And I am feeling the blessings in ALL of this!

OBSERVATIONS ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Conversations surrounding emotional balance, moral ambiguities, and deep spiritual truths (such as We Are All Connected, and Put Your Hands Together When You Pray), are what Sheila is most passionate about.
Sheila feels a profound empathic Connection with people and what they’re going through by merely sharing her own truth, speaking freely about her personal struggles, and shares authentically about the challenges she continues to overcome. Sheila strives to ease lonelines, strengthen the will of those exiting toxic relationships, remind us all that we are stronger than we think we are, and that eventually, Everything Resolves to Gratitude.
0:00 Hi, I would love to speak with you now about an exercise that we did today at our Reiki graduation ceremony. And I think this exercise within a group in particular, a small group would be really good to do especially to set initial intentions and to ground each participant and to help them connect with each other. You may want to do it at the end of a first session or the beginning of a second or third session especially if you have sensed there to be some disturbance in the group dynamics or the energy of the group. And essentially what it amounts to is each person arranges their body (to point their solar plexus towards the person they are speaking to), and in particular, their eyes to look at each person in the group one at a time and then simply state the other person’s name.
For example, I’ll say XYZ is the name of the other person, so you would say “XYZ, I experience you (or the universe experiences you) as ABCDEFG type of person meaning you can use a couple of words or a couple of sentences, but it shouldn’t be any more than a couple of minutes for you to describe each person. You might say things like, “Carol, I experience you (or the universe experiences you) as a loving, tender hearted, caring, nurturing person. You put yourself out there for everybody around you. You give so much from your heart, and you may even over get to the point of diminishing your own self. But you are wise enough to know you can always refill your empty cup. I love you. Thank you. And that’s that’s really it.
You know, you’re giving people the opportunity to understand you’ve heard them. You’ve seen them. You’ve experienced them. And I love this practice. I love the practice of this exercise because it helps each of us connect better with each other, heal any perceived grievances we may have had or held against each other. It really opens our hearts and lets each other appreciate and tune into each other’s energy and realize that we’re not alone. That others see us even if they’ve only known as for a short time.
Like I said, you may use this activity at the end of the session when you’ve only had a couple of hours together participating in a group. I would think that it might be fun in the beginning just to keep it very short and tell each other a perception that they have upon meeting because we all know that.
Initially, when we meet people within the first seven to 30 seconds, we form an opinion of them. And then later when we do this exercise again, after the first session or second session we’ve had a few hours together (if somebody’s taking notes of this or you’re writing these these perceptions down), you can look back and see how much your perception has changed of that person or how intune you were to pick up on who that person really is. Maybe you’re seeing that person’s heart or their higher self and you’re getting in touch and you’re getting in tune and then therefore this is validating your intuitive awareness.
So, try that exercise and let me know what you think of it and how it works for you. We just did it at our Reiki II level graduation ceremony (and I can tell you that even during the Reiki II weekend class participation, we had some energy disturbances between a couple of the participants) and I was so utterly amazed and impressed when each of those people got to express to each other in our group setting, how they experienced the other person because it was totally positive! There was no negativity. When another participant got their opportunity to share actually said, “I’m not gonna pull any punches and I’m gonna be brutally honest…” and I thought, “Oh gosh, here it comes.” And I didn’t think that particular person had an issue with anyone else. So, when that person got a chance to speak to the other, she let it all hang out and of course it was all worded quite eloquently and was very caring. However, when I heard the words ‘brutally honest’ I thought here comes the negativity. How could this be negative because I thought these two folks got along famously. Well, they did but it was just again, bringing back to my consciousness, how the words that we choose, can even kind of set us up for a different expectation. I thought the next words out of her mouth was gonna be something negative after she said, “I want to cut to the chase and be brutally honest,” right? Maybe just the use of the word brutal especially in this loving, nurturing type of environment and the circle we’ve built over several weeks together. I wasn’t expecting THAT word. I think it was kind of jolting to me. Right?
But this is why I love doing WordPlay. This is why I love facilitating especially small groups, four to eight people, because I think you can really build lasting friendships and really bond with one another. You can really find out a lot about yourself too, because I found myself when I was not forced but when I was prodded if you will (by means of this exercise), to give my opinion of my experience of another human being. I found I immediately tuned in to my pure essence my higher being, God, Omniscience, Source. You know, I immediately tuned in. I immediately got the dowsing rods kind of feedback in my body of the Yes answers every time I spoke something to someone (as I was telling the truth of course) through the whole process. Every time I spoke to the person I felt GodBumps! I felt the GodBumps sensation in my thighs, which is my Yes answer. And now after Reiki level II, I know when I feel God bumps above the waist (in my torso and arms) that is my No answer, as it’s a very strong sensation (meaning the answer No is quite firm). A No answer like this is both inside me and coming to me from The Field, with the stronger the sensation.
This is akin to one looking at the different hues and shades of a certain color. When a color is really bright, that’s the equivalent of when I get a really strong sensation. Similarly, when the color is a pastel color that’s equal to when I feel the slight subtle GodBumps sensation. So the stronger sensation is my Yes answer (or agreement from the Universe on whatever is being discussed), and the more less sensation of GodBumps above the waist is for when I get firm No answer from the Universe.
I’ve learned that through Reiki II for myself personally. I’ve also learned I’m a human dowsing rod and that was validated during the instruction of how to properly use the dowsing rods (as I’d never been instructed how to use them properly before). I’d had a cheaper pair before and I knew they worked to show me where the energy was but I never used them for any specific purpose. I didn’t know I could use them to obtain a yes or no answer nor how to hold them properly with my elbows close against my body. So now, I love the dowsing rods.
I mostly focus on tools, techniques, tips we can ALL use that will aid us in our development mentally calming the mind, growing spiritually, and healing physically. I look for things that we don’t involve external tools. If we’re laying in a hospital bed and we’re near coma we can do these things. That’s the kind of medicine I’m looking for and is what holistic health means to me–holistic medicine. Things you can do on your own, within and of yourself. And you’re a creator. You need no other external tools or external medicines, and so on and so forth. Your breath, your energy, the feeling of your own body (acupressure and reflexology for example), the sensing, the tuning in the going within the meditation, the prayer, the mental attitude, the self talk, the self awareness, the awareness of your conscious thoughts, all of that’s holistic medicine to me. And with that, I send you my love and blessings. Many blessings to you in all ways. We are in this journey together at this time. While I’m breathing and I’m this side of the dirt, I’m alive. And even once I transition whenever that shall occur. I want you to know I’m always there for you. Your loving Spiral Sister in Christ Jesus’ name, Amen. Awoman. Namaste. OM
Many blessings to you in ALL ways. Always. Omniscience IS IN Everything. Go about your day with God knowing Omniscience is always with you. You are never alone. You are never alone.

I don’t think I’ve ever described it this way quite this way before. But after leaving on my second (of a two day) class for Level II Reiki, I feel that I’m only speaking (in all of my writings and talks) to people who ultimately feel a responsibility within themselves to grow their consciousness, to grow their being and connect with (and you can call this any name you would like but it’s a another version of you in essence). It may be your inner child, it may be your Higher Self it may be God, Creator, Divine, Source Energy, the Unified Field, The Field, fractal universe, multiverse, The Force, or The Energy. Omniscience is the word I prefer because it definitely explains how God is Everywhere. All at once. And sees ALL. Omniscience hears ALL frequencies on and in The Field. And creates all and is really the underpinning for everything that exists in the universe, and, in particular, each of us.
So, I’m very grateful for you and glad you’re getting something from this blog. I do believe that it’s for all “believers.” Because if you’re a person who only believes that you are only the body you reside in currently, that you’ve never lived before, as in your consciousness has never existed anywhere else in the universe before, and you don’t believe your consciousness is going to exist anywhere after you leave this body (in other words, you don’t believe YOU go anywhere after this body dies), you are not the person I’m writing this blog for. You’re not the person I’m speaking to right now (for those listening to the audio).
The person that I’m speaking to right now has some belief that they have a soul and a spirit and that they are not this body, this body is a temporary sheath, a meat-suit a spacesuit, a temporary asset that you own. And this is why when Jesus walked the planet 2000 years ago, he said, let thine eye be single. You’re in the world, not of the world. And you have a responsibility to take care of and guard your body Temple. I’m loosely paraphrasing to give you an example that he was teaching the temporary-ness or temporal-ness of this body, and yes, he could bring a dead body to life. Yes, he could. lay hands on someone, put mud on someone’s eye to make the blind see, the lame walk etc. We can do all these things as well. He said we would.
We have the tools available to us. We have the resources available to us. Either surgically, medically, or spiritually psychically (as in psychic surgery cases and things of that nature), as well as Reiki, as well as laying on of hands prayer work and such. Your intention, visualization, speaking words of health, light, love, growth, opportunity, and helping people to see a different version of their future so that they are healthier and living a more vibrant life. Those are all ways that we can affect one another because We Are All Connected.
I see the divine as Omniscience because God is the underlying Omniscient Force that envelops everything in the universe and is the blueprint–the structure.
When I meditate, I see the underpinning framework the Reiki symbols hang on. The world’s languages hang on this framework, the light languages and the words we think and speak. They (the words with their intended meanings) penetrate and hang on this framework. And when we die in the physical body, our consciousness goes into the Grand Beyond because the Grand Beyond is this framework. And we can go through it as well as hang on to it. Those of us who believe Jesus Christ is our personal Savior. We have a relationship with Him. We have a kinship, we have an acknowledgement from Him. We have a vow with Him. We have a promise from him, that He will be there to deliver us from any “evil,” which in my estimation is a “misstep.” We have simply missed the mark. We have made a misstep (or some say “mistake”). Jesus will be there on the Other Side to course correct for us (His believers and followers). But if we don’t believe in Jesus, and this is where I am different than 99% of the people who talk about religion and spirituality, WE are simply hanging onto other branches. In the tree, if you look at a Banyan tree (it’s a prime example of what I see as the best representation of this principle). The Yew tree as well, is a prime example. The trunk of the Yew is made up from multiple branches, limbs, vines and so forth that wrap around and create a stronger trunk. All the branches wind around to form and strengthen the tree trunk. Branches spiral, twist, and wrap around each other. And so the tree itself, the base of the Yew tree is the combination of all of its branches.
Yew tree behind Rosslyn Castle in Scotland
Now why is this important? Because every faith and even if you aren’t a part of an organized Faith structure, you are a branch or vine and you are enveloped in the wrapping of this spiritual tree. So, if you can picture one single tree made of hundreds of branches or even thousands of branches, limbs, and vines–they are ALL connected. This is why the various paths lead to one place. There is an Above and there is a Below. You can reach both through any Faith branch. If you will. And if you are the lone person who believes in XYZ I still believe you can be enveloped by that tree (Omniscience) and be absorbed into that tree, either through one of the main branches or through a vine, or weed! Let’s say if we’re using that tree, Yew tree or Banyan tree as the example, it’s not impossible for a branch to be cast off.
But again, that involves choice. The creators choice and your choice. If you want to be enveloped in a part of that tree, whichever path you’ve chosen will get you there. Some paths may be more, may be shorter, or may be longer. Some paths may be more crooked and have more angles and you may look at those challenges as missteps, but eventually you will be welcomed into the fullness of that tree and it will be explained (to you).
Answers may come after you’ve crossed over or transitioned into another consciousness. Again, (this is all larger) than Heaven and Hell. I see life as the growth of your consciousness and once you cross over, you’re going to continue growing! You may continue as a spark of divine consciousness. You may come back as a human. You may come back in another life form somewhere else on another realm. You may just hang on to a frequency in the Field. There’s any number of ways that you could continue to grow your consciousness and for those who are interested in reading more about that or studying more about that or hearing more about that I highly recommend the Institute of Noetic science (IONS). I also highly recommend the Monroe Institute. If you know of any other scientific exploration or scientifically backed exploration I would certainly be open to hearing about those communities in the comments section below this article.
Thank you. God bless you. God bless the universe. And the world. My heart is so open. And I see myself as a porous vessel. A vessel that longs for connection that longs for peace and unity, but I also understand that the fire can burn off chaff from the wheat. I understand the fire can purify. And I understand fire helps us destroy the things in our life that are no longer needed as we continue our track to improve and grow our consciousness. And with that said, Nothing is ever wrong. Everything Resolves to Gratitude. We grow through the dirt even when it’s unpleasant and we don’t consciously ask for it. But it’s necessary because we’re on this journey and our soul and spirit knows we need the growth. We have dirt in our lives that may be painful, messy, ugly, or horrible. But we’re on a mission. We’re on a journey and growth is our forward motion progress. With love, Sheila Murrey and… ?
Many blessings to you in ALL ways. Always. Omniscience IS IN Everything. Go about your day with God knowing Omniscience is always with you. You are never alone. You are never alone.
