This month I have had back-to-back enriching weekend experiences beginning with leading a Soul Retreat at a Yoga Sanctuary in Northern Michigan and finishing with an extraordinary weekend learning with Psychic Medium, John Holland in Kennebunkport, Maine.
Before last week I had resisted the idea of leading a soul retreat for reasons that seemed sound to my mind. Within a shamanic journey however, I was encouraged to stretch into this particular new experience. My intuition revealed the specific yoga sanctuary and the details for how to create an uplifting retreat for all concerned. Though hesitant, I listened and opened to allow the gifts of this message into my consciousness. As I took inspired action each element of the preparation and implementation flowed easily and effortlessly. By allowing the messages that truly challenged me to flow into my awareness and actions, I was led into an experience that has forever enriched me.
And then I was led to beautiful Kennebunkport, Maine to study with John Holland and Bob Olsen. The invite was forwarded via email from a friend. I had never heard of John or Bob, but was immediately moved to register. My rational mind worried about the logistics including leaving my daughter for two full weekends in a row. Observing the doubt, I breathed into my body and felt into the deeper truth of a call to go. I had no idea why: I just knew I needed to attend. I booked the workshop with no further contemplation.
I have since learned the John Holland is a gifted psychic medium, teacher and author. And Bob Olsen is a former skeptic and private investigator that presently focuses on enhancing the credibility of psychic phenomena for consumers. This unique workshop offered by John and Bob combined two different professionals to provide exactly what I had asked the divine to show me months prior. From start to finish, the experience moved like the rhythms of a finely choreographed dance. Every moment proved fulfilling and the experience has profoundly changed my perspective about my abilities and profession.
The divine universe supports our creation process. But it can only create for us what we allow through us. I was resistant to leading a retreat and flying to Kennebunkport. Had I tried to understand how these two experiences fit into my manifesting process logically and allowed my limitations of thought to dictate my choices, I would have missed out on two powerfully transformative opportunities.
To live soulfully and create our path consciously requires consistent acts of courage on our part. Though intuitive living is the most natural way to be, we learn very early to identify with ideas that do not align with universal laws and spiritual truth. This type of thinking becomes the norm. Then, when creative impulses arise our mind cannot make the ideas fit logically into the bigger picture of our life. We learn to dismiss these urgings placing greater value on the logical momentum that creates status quo. Though our fears, doubts and worries are born of the temporary machinery called the mind and emotions, these are what shape the reality most of us experience. When we learn to delve into the deeper truth of our soulful essence, fear loses its power and becomes a portal through which we can grow and realize our dreams.
These two weekend experiences are pieces in a larger puzzle of my soul’s journey. While I may not yet know how they fit into the larger puzzle – I know that they do. Consider how Dorothy in the Wizard of Oz needs to meet the Scarecrow, Tin Man, Lion and even a Witch to realize her ultimate destination experience. All of the characters and encounters of Dorothy's journey are essential elements to the fulfillment of her wish. As we listen to the deeper call from our spirit and courageously enact the guidance when it emerges one step at a time, we nurture our creative process. Each step has intrinsic value as it simultaneously lends itself to the bigger purpose of our life story. Action steps birthed from our mind require us to fit the choices into the bigger picture and do not complete our soul purpose, so they leave us feel incomplete, unfulfilled and drained. Inspired actions are rarely comprehended as critical for our purpose in present time but are often understood in retrospect. When taken they uplift, enrich and fulfill us even when we do not yet know how they fit into the bigger picture of our manifesting process. Though Dorothy does not appreciate the value of her bizarre encounters along the yellow brick road, every one of them served her journey and are understood once she arrives home and is fully awake.
How do you manifest your soul’s purpose? It begins with the intention to know your true essence and allow your unique beauty and light to be expressed freely. Support your intention with energizing practices such as creative visualization and immersing yourself and immersing yourself with the emotions of fulfillment and appreciation for having your dream realized. Be playfully consistent in your willingness to see, feel and allow these emotional sensations into your body, mind, words and actions daily. This alone serves as a spiritual call to people, places and things that match your sustained intent. Every moment of allowing the sensations into your present time life shapes you into the reality you are becoming.
My life’s purpose is to love and inspire love throughout life. This translates into a career where I am consistently able to nurture an awareness of a deeper truth through individual and group readings, workshops, retreats, CD's and articles. That truth equates with soulful living. When we live from our true essence, love is the currency shaping our lives. This is not the emotional love of our mind but the pure unconditional compassion that exists within our essence and felt through our senses as love, bliss, serenity, freedom, unity and cooperation.
This summer I am offering several ways to enrich and empower your soulful creation journey. I invite you to breathe deeply into your body and listen to how your soul responds to these offerings. If you are inspired to join me in any of these experiences, I hope you will take inspired action and join me into the exploration of your true essence and the power of love.
Every month I offer a manifesting circle for individuals who wish to practice energy exercises. When so inspired, I add a manifesting teaching to this process and so on June 7, from 7 – 8:30 p.m. I am offering a workshop on Supercharging Your Manifesting and clearing the blocks to your creation experience. Come to learn and experience a circle of like-minded people who are consciously creating their reality.
On June 14 from 6 – 7:30 I am hosting the Free Cooperative Networking Event led by Teri Williams and Tamara Stone! If you want to grow your professional success you can begin by aligning with universal laws of cooperation versus the competitive laws of the ego. This step alone will energize your professional experience! Bring your business cards, enthusiasm and professional expertise to share!
On July 8 I am offering a small group reading experience limited to 15 participants only. This event allows all present to receive a message from loved ones and divine guides and in spirit.
Every soul has a specific purpose for its physical life. On July 11 I will be providing a brand new workshop that uses numerology, past life regression and theme tracing to explore what your soul has chosen to learn and share in this lifetime. This is not the same process that I teach in my intuitive empowerment program.
It is my great honor to welcome Chandan Parmaswara to teach the Level 1 Pranic® Healing Workshop. Prana is a Sanskrit word for life force. And Pranic Healing has been used by health professionals and lay people around the globe. Chandan is a highly evolved soul and powerful teacher. He comes to Pranic as a former skeptic and science based individual who was astonished to discover the true power of this healing approach. If you are interested in enhancing your health and overall vitality or grow your professional skills as a healer, I invite you to join this workshop.
Remember, this is an abundant universe. You are a divine soul with full access to the infinite resources, means and methods to enact intuitive guidance with ease and grace. A Soul Retreat, Kennebunkport and the Wizard of Oz are all reminders of how moving in concert with soul's flow leads to growth, joy and fulfillment.
Loving Blessings to you all. Namaste,
Lori
