Karmic Connections and Extraordinary Out of Ordinary Relationship

Have you ever met someone you recognize even though it is your first time meeting? There’s a cosmic chemistry, a sixth sense magnetism that seems to pull you towards one another. Is this person a soul mate or a karmic connection? Time usually tells. Are you still with this person? Does he or she still feel like your best friend and love mixed into one? Then simplistic as it sounds, I suspect you’ve found your soul mate.

Highly Intuitive Children; Amazing Stories and Insights About Raising Psychic Children

Do you have or know a highly intuitive child? When you look into their eyes it’s as if there’s an unspoken understanding between you, a psychic connection. I casually refer to these children as “old souls”. They just seem wiser than their years, and more tuned in to the sixth sense. I have written about my children who are now teenagers. Perhaps it’s not surprising to learn that they were very intuitive youngsters.

Empathic Connections; What Do You Do When You Know Something Is Wrong But Don't Know How You Know?

Probably the most important lesso I have learned in developing my intuition is to trust and act on “knowing without knowing why”. Most often this empathic connection; an acute feeling sense, happens between family members and close friends. But it can also happen with our pets. A few nights ago this happened when my daughter’s friend was hanging out. The four of us sat down to have dinner. One minute we were immersed in conversation and the next we were silenced. “Hold on a minute” my daughter’s friend said. “I think I hear my dog barking”.

Women's Intuition Infertility and Motherhood

As Mother’s Day approaches I thought it timely to share out of the ordinary extraordinary stories about becoming mothers. Both my experiences are unconventional and with each child woman’s intuition played a vital role guiding my jou eys to motherhood.

Unconscious Mind Awareness and Telepathic Dreams

Although one might not label it is as such, I suspect most people have had a telepathic experience in their life. You think of someone and they call or email minutes later, or start humming a song, turn on the radio, select a station and hear the same song playing. There are many examples of mind to mind communication, and the power of sending and receiving thought, in Amazing Stories about Instincts and Intuitions, my blog site. What is interesting to note, is that the majority of these events occurred during wakened hours.

Death Anniversaries; Inspirational and Amazing Stories

The approach and actual anniversary day of the death of someone loved and lost, brings to the surface an unsettling sea of emotions. As a therapist and life coach who provides bereavement and grief counseling, and someone who has experienced death at an early age, understanding grieving and loss is a subject near and dear to my heart. I had a recurring dream as a child that thieves broke into our apartment, snatched my mother, and threw her out of my bedroom window while I watched stunned, and paralyzed with fear.

Goals and Expectations; Personal Lessons and Revelations Working with an Autistic Child

In the hopes of reaching the moon men fail to see the flowers that blossom at their feet. Albert Schweitzer In relationships, both personal and professional it’s important to be conscious of our goals and expectations. It’s also a good idea to honestly assess the present and the past. How else can we establish reference points, of where we were and where are now? Too often we focus on the future; what we want, have yet to attain, on our unrealized dreams.

In Our Heart of Hearts We Know; Facing Illness and Death

In my heart of hearts’ means that you know or have known that something is true even if you have not been willing to admit it to yourself or others.” On the deepest level I believe we instinctively know when our health is in jeopardy and death is threatening; when our life force or the lives of our loved ones are in serious danger. There are also times when in spite of a diagnosis and prognoses, in our heart of hearts there is a knowing which for lack of a better explanation is, that it just isn’t time.

A Psychic Sense About Your Pet's Health and Well Being

How well can you read your pet’s behavior? Most owners know when their animals are stressed, and usually, when they are sick. But, how many people trust their intuition when it comes to their animal’s well being and health care? In this post I will share some amazing animal stories which involve acting on my psychic sense. Recently I was also asked to medically intuit, for a client’s beloved cat. It is not something I am called on to do very often. I set my intention clearly and asked for specific information, the same way I do when I channel on health related issues for people.

A friend sent an amazing story to share, in which she describes trusting her gut feelings in regard to breast cancer and her health care. It is another testimony to the importance of being proactive, honoring your instincts rather than acting on impulse out of fear. The month of October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month.

Letting Go to Think Outside the Box; Insights and a Breakthrough with an Autistic Child

How often have you had futile thoughts like, “Nothing is working. I feel like I am banging my head against the wall”? And then you surrender the mental strife, you “Let Go and let God”, “Cast your fate to the wind”, think “What will be, will be”, and to your amazement somehow a new opportunity, insight, or answer presents itself. In order to “think outside the box” to allow the intuitive, creative, and unforeseen powers access, shutting down the conscious mind seems necessary.

Telepathy with Animals; Do You Think Animals Receive and Respond to Human Thought and Feeling?

I never get tired reading amazing animal stories; how pets alert their owner’s when there is danger, and act as guides for those who are physically impaired. The astonishing tales of lost animals who find their way back home after years and miles of trekking. For many of us, our animals are like additional children in the family with whom we share a mutual love and devotion.

Sweet Psychic Dreams, Is Being Psychic a Gift or a Curse?

This weekend I saw Clint Eastward’s new movie HEREAFTER which explores the issues of near death experience, afterlife, and an intimate look into the life of someone who is psychic. The movie also touches on the difference between those who profess to be and those who truly have heightened awareness. What was of particular interest was the main character didn’t procure his abilities. They became apparent after he recovered from a serious illness. How relevant is this? Does plowing through personal trauma sharpen and intensify our perception. Are some of us just born more sensitive?

Are you one of many who claim not to be very intuitive? Do you have children? If you are a parent, can you tell at a moment’s glance, that something is bothering your child, even when they refuse to admit it? What about over the phone when they just don’t sound right?

NLP and Intuitive Coaching Tips to Filter Intuitions and Dreams

Some people seem to have a propensity for intuiting impending danger, including catastrophes like the events of September 11, 2001. I can hardly imagine the weight of not knowing whether these types of intense perceptions are real? When we sense or dream that something is wrong with family members or friends, we have the option of alerting them, and checking things out.

Personal Power, Cosmic Timing, and Actualizing; Amazing Stories about Connections and Reconnections

Metaphysical teaching through the ages has proposed that fostering a certain mentality will connect us to the esoteric and the supe atural. Meditation, positive affirmations, focused breath and movement, are all spiritual practices which guide one to develop a sense of inner connection to the infinite. And the simple, yet profound act of deciding to make things happen, consciously assuming responsibility for the quality of our life, creates shifts which seem to literally influence our ability to actualize and manifest what we want.

Life Coach Recommends, Go With First Impressions Renting or Buying a Home

Over the years I have consulted with friends, family members, and clients, about potential rental properties, and real estate purchases. One of the benefits of intuition is that information comes any time and any where. Although meeting face to face is more personal, modern technology now gives us the opportunity to converse, and see one another online. And phone sessions are convenient, and expedient, when something needs to be clarified quickly, like house hunting.

Spiritual Guidance and Support Coping With Personal and Global Tragedy

I remember feeling my mother’s sorrow as a child. Sometimes I would stand next to her and begin to cry. “Why are you crying” she’d ask bewildered? “I don’t know mommy, because you are sad” I’d say. Some of us physically register the suffering of others in our bodies. We tap into their feelings subconsciously. The metaphysical terms “sentient” and “empathic” are often used to describe people who have this keen kinesthetic sense. Do you get choked up when you hear someone cry? What happens to you when you pass an accident on the road?
