Years ago, I remember sitting at a holistic fair and the intuitive advisor on the other side of the table (where I was sitting), looked into my eyes and said “you are supposed to be on this side of the table”. My reaction was out loud and immediate: “huh?” “me?” Naaaaaaa. I never dreamed that I would be an intuitive advisor. I equated that with telling people what to do and having them become dependent upon me, and I wanted no part of that.

But many moons have passed since then. I’ve grown spiritually and my Guidance has been nudging me lately to become more of an advisor and less of an interviewer. Ever since my beloved cat (Nakita) died on January 7th, (Hear my program dedicated to Nakita on January 11th, 2006), he’s been busy on the other side (along with other glorious beings) urging me to move forward in a new direction.

For years I’ve been interviewing the big guys on my weekly radio program – Windows to Wellness – the experts in mind/body medicine: Dean Ornish, Deepak Chopra, Wayne Dyer, Andrew Weil, Bernie Siegel, Larry Dossey and many others. I’ve been the conduit, the continuity, the interviewer, the person asking the questions, and it took me months to learn how to keep quiet, be present, and really hear the answers. It took me even longer to stop equating my identity with the celebrity guest or person I was interviewing. I was the spokesperson promoting everyone else. I was the supporter of other healers. I called myself a “healing agent”…in short, an agent for healers. I loved this role, remembering Zig Zieglar’s famous quote about getting what you want by helping others get what they want. Only, I wasn’t sure exactly what I wanted, only that I wanted more.

Then, in May of 2004, my dear friend Irving died, and that momentous event changed everything. I was a witness and a helper for his peaceful transition. This experience changed my life, and I was honored to be able to write about it in a newly published book: More than Meets the Eye – True Stories of Death, Dying and the Afterlife. Irving was having trouble letting go and I just happened to be in his hospice room at the perfect time. At his bedside, I received a message. I followed my intuition, asked his family for permission (to perform a healing touch technique) and watched him take his final breath when my hand rested motionless just inches above his heart. Irving trusted me in his final moments. Irving felt the warmth and gentleness of my voice and the pure intention of my soul, and he was gone, flying with the angels. Could this be the sign that I was a healer too? At the time, I didn’t see that, feeling responsible for the rapid change in his condition and sobbing buckets at his bedside. Then time passed, and it got clearer.

I’ve always felt that my mission was to teach self-reliance using holistic remedies. It’s becoming clearer each day that I’m supposed to work more one-on-one with people and actually show them how. Flower essences have played a huge role in this clarity, and I’ll write more about them in future posts, and how I’m helping people select their perfect essence to fit their emotional state.

I’ve been advising people about essences for years and that’s part of the service that I offer. My specialty is emotional healing and helping you to help yourself by using the remedies and techniques that are readily available and affordable.

Today, I find myself sitting on the other side of the table frequently, only I’m not telling you what to do. Instead, I’m encouraging you to find your own power, to get in touch with your feelings, to practice daily meditation, to learn about your options, to develop your own intuition and Guidance to find your own answers. In short, you will leave my table feeling empowered. encouraged and supported.

I will be present at the next holistic fair sponsored by Galactic Gateways in Nashville, TN. and will share honestly and deeply about my own healng experiences and what I do to center myself during intense times. It ultimately, in my view, comes down to two things: Aligning with Source, and getting clear about your intention. I look forward to meeting you in the days ahead.

I also welcome your commentary and your own thoughts on healing. We know that it’s more than a pill here, or a surgery there, and we know about the vastness of the mind body connection as the movie What the Bleep Do We Know so beautifully portrayed.

I’m being led in a new direction. It’s exciting and it’s about time. I look forward to sharing more here – and more frequently. Until then, Blessings and Namaste (I honor the God within you)!
