rush of energy that makes our hair stand
on end, gives us goose bumps, causes us
to feel a tingling or buzzing sensation, or
simply a warming or subtle tension in parts
of our body. We may have even said, “I can
feel it in my bones,” or “The answer is right
on the tip of my tongue.” reads, “Fathers matter.” Or perhaps you
have strong desire to call a friend whom you
have not seen in a while, and suddenly your
friend phones you or you run into her at the
grocery store. Or, you may be pondering a
problem and out of the blue an enlightened
solution to it pops into your mind.
While working with clients, I often intuit
information in the form of physical
sensations,
intuitive
feelings,
and
heightened visual perceptions. Sometimes
I sense what they were just thinking or
about to say. Often I feel a rush of energy
through my body creating “god-bumps,” (as
I like to call them) which affirms the spiritual
information coming through me. Tapping
into such spiritual information allows me
to guide these transformative sessions for
each client’s greater good and well-being. HERE ARE A FEW
WAYS TO EXPAND
YOUR CONSCIOUS
AWARENESS:
Like a spiritual compass, conscious
awareness assists us in navigating the
events in our lives. Using it can feel like
flying in an airplane and viewing the ground
below. As such, it allows us to step outside
of whatever is happening in our lives so
we can assess the situation with healthy
detachment. Every experience we have, no
matter what it is—a surly driver who cuts us
off in traffic, the unexpected loss of a close
relationship, or an illness—can be viewed
as an opportunity to transform ourselves.
From this inspired vantage point, we can
experience the space of all possibilities
without being attached to a particular
outcome. Enter a trancelike state through breathing,
prayer, or meditation; open your heart by
touching it, breathing through it, or saying,
“Open my heart”; then listen to your spirit
speaking to you, asking it questions if
desired. With practice, you will discern
the voice of your spirit through physical
sensations, an image that pops into your
mind; a message from out of the blue; or a
particular feeling.
In Anatomy of the Spirit, medical intuitive
Carolyn Myss defines this type of enlightened
state as “symbolic sight, the ability to use
your intuition to interpret the power symbols
in your life.” For instance, suppose you
are driving to meet your father, concerned
about the encounter, then see a sign that

1. Sit in a quiet place;
2. Become a conscious
observer of your thoughts
and feelings as they come
through your awareness.
Instead of reacting to your negative
thoughts, merely witness them like a
cloud passing through your mind with
self-acceptance and without judgment.
Notice any negative thoughts. Replace
