Listening, like speaking, is an art form! How do you listen? With an open mind? Or already having prejudged? Or believing that you know what’s coming next?

How do you take in information? Before someone begins to speak, do you prejudge their ability to tell you anything? This prejudgment dials down your ability to hear what’s being presented to you. 

Imagine that before you listen to anyone you do a quick little clearing. Imagine standing there clearing yourself, perhaps it’s smudging yourself or a quick little body scan. Then say to yourself, “Oh, I’m in listening mode now.”

In that place of listening, there’s even more you can do to be receptive. Open your heart to hear what each person has to say to you. Being receptive, you take it all in.

As you’re engaging in conversation with someone take a deep breath. This breath grounds you, it clears you, it expands you, and allows you to be inspired. Just this one thing brings you consciously available to listen to another person.

As your heart area expands, you might notice that the mind begins to disengage. And with a quiet mind another idea, thought and action is exposed. Now you have one more perspective!

How cool is that? Open hearted, broad minded, fully alive and engaged.

The story you tell yourself becomes the life you live! You asked for something but you didn’t get it. Events like this leave an impression, and oftentimes you live out of those impressions. The story you tell yourself over and over becomes a belief and that belief becomes the story out of which you live.

Whether you are conscious or not of your traumas, they begin to formulate your life. You can tell yourself a different story. There will be some “what ifs” in this altered story.

We all have old stories. However, you have a destination (a goal). Is that old story propelling you there? You can use that crappy story to propel you to the next level.

Think about the idea of a vision board. The goal of the vision board is to see what you want. Find pictures that resonate in your body with your destination creating an experience of your revised story.

You might notice that as you move toward your destination, the pictures on your vision board also change. Playing music while doing your vision board will help you transmute the energy of the old story. Those vibrations are stuck in the body and music will have a physical affect.

Dance and move around, have a beverage while doing this transformational vision board, anchor your new experience. Light a candle and connect with the Divine. You are using all of your senses to begin your brand new story. Energetically every cell of your body will get this and respond in a whole new way. You have moved beyond the limitations of your old bad story. There’s a new you!

Give gratitude for that which you don’t believe you have yet, because it just hasn’t shown itself.

Listen to this guided meditation to release stress and tension, discomfort and dis-ease from your body. Then you can anchor the feelings of calmness, harmony and balance in your body. In this episode, we cleanse, harmonize, and balance the 7 chakras within the body.

The Chakra system is an ancient way of viewing the energy centers in the body. Blocked energy in the chakras leads to illness, but when cleared energy moves freely.

The Root Chakra, associated with the color red, is at the base of your spine. When this chakra is in balance you feel grounded, safe and secure.

The Sacral Chakra, associated with the color orange, is two inches below your navel. When this chakra is in balance you are creative, passionate and outgoing.

The Solar Plexus Chakra, associated with the color yellow, is located three inches above your navel where the ribs meet. When this chakra is in balance you feel in control, assertive and confident.

The Heart Chakra, associated with the color green, is located in the center of your chest on the breastbone. When this chakra is in balance you feel joy, gratitude, love, compassion and trust.

The Throat Chakra, associated with the color blue, is located in your throat. When this chakra is in balance you are able to communicate well, express yourself freely and you are also good at listening.

The Third Eye Chakra, associated with the color indigo, is located in your forehead between the eyes. When this chakra is in balance you are clear and focused, you can easily discern between truth and illusion and you are able to receive wisdom and insight.

The Crown Chakra, associated with the color violet, is located at the top of your head. When this chakra is in balance you live in the present moment and trust your inner guidance.

Following this clearing, balancing and harmonizing meditation for the chakras, you feel energized yet calm mentally, physically, and emotionally. Bliss

Have you actually thought of giving thanks as an art form? When you receive something and give something back, this is the Art of Gratitude. Giving and receiving is our basic nature.

When you ask for something and say “please,” that word goes out and it draws people toward you. For example, when you hear someone say, “Please, can you help me with something?” you automatically get curious and have a desire to take action.

Do you want to feel lovable, capable and worthwhile? As humans, we love to be needed. So when someone makes a request of you and needs you AND says, “Please can you…?” it means they want you. Which means you must be capable, you must be worthwhile and you must be lovable because they’re asking for your help. When you ask for something and say please, it draws people toward you! And they want to help you.

The reciprocity of receiving something is giving thanks; this is the Art of Gratitude. Sometimes giving thanks is a direct action we plan, and other times it takes a natural indirect form. For instance, by being aware that you’re in flow just by breathing, you don’t need to do anything more than that. You don’t need to go ask the tree, "Will you pop a little oxygen into the air, and I’ll breathe it in and I’ll exhale something useful for you?" There is an innate, inherent, undeniable balance there. You receive something, give something back and give a “thank you.”

Pay it forward, for instance, buy someone’s coffee when in line at your favorite coffee spot, they then have an opportunity to do something nice for someone else. Think how that ripples out into the world. The Art of Gratitude is dynamic!

Being thankful for little things in your life turns grumpy into grateful. Feel the upliftment, a natural buoyancy that radiates out into the world and lifts others too. This is the Art of Gratitude in motion. You ask, receive and give. Rinse and Repeat… Bliss

Who am I? What is my purpose? These soul searching questions haunt us all. The Akashic Records store every thought, deed, action, and intention of your soul from its inception to the present and all future possibilities. This makes the Akashic Records a valuable source for you to ask important questions.

Your Masters, Teachers, and Loved Ones know your soul for they have been with you for many, many incarnations. And they also know the path of your soul’s evolution.

Open ended questions give you lots of information. Where am I meant to be? How is the best way for me to get from here to there? What information do I need? What action steps can I use? Where can I find this? What are my best next steps?

You’ll be given directions to guide you to the path that will take you from where you are to where you’re needed, both for your own soul growth and for the soul growth of those around you.

So prepare yourself, write out some questions. Then come into the Akashic Records and find some answers, whether you open the Akashic Records for yourself or whether you ask someone else for these deep questions. We are all here to help one another to live whole, happy and healthy lives. It’s your birthright that you have access to this information.

I’d love to open the Akashic Records for you or teach you how to do it for yourself if that feels right for you!

Are you searching for answers to your life’s most important questions? A shamanic journey is a very powerful way to get guidance. Divine wisdom is easily available to everyone.

A monotonous drumbeat drops you into an altered state in which there are practical everyday solutions. This state is called non-ordinary reality and is not confined to the laws governing our physical practical world. By using all your senses while in the journey you become aware of all the possibilities available to you that you could not see in ordinary reality.

Learn how to journey in a spirit canoe, find guidance, and protection then discover answers to pressing questions. Your spirit guide becomes like your very best friend but way smarter! and wants only your highest and best (or better).

Exploration in non-ordinary reality begins to affect your everyday life. When you take important questions into the shamanic non-ordinary realm you get information. When you bring that back into the practical daily world and start using it on a daily basis then your life begins to change.

Sharing your journey with others is a lovely idea. They can notice things in your journey that may go unnoticed by you. My book, Journeys of Transformation, shows you how to set sacred space for journeys, how to journey and then how to interpret journeys by using five archetypes. You can get it here.

Every day, people come in and out of your home environment bringing with them whatever it is that they’ve attracted and collected over the day. Some of it is wonderful and positive and some of it, not so much. Using smudge and a burden basket is a wonderful way to cleanse yourself and your environment.

A burden basket is a real or imaginary basket to keep outside of your door where everyone enters and exits. It’s useful to have a burden basket, so that when leaving home or coming back, you can drop your burdens into it, so that all the troubles from work and the hecticness of your day are left outside your threshold. The same applies when you’re leaving, so that you are not taking anything from the home environment out into the world. This simple act assists everyone in the family. This can be done for work as well, even if the basket is in your imagination.

Smudge creates an energetic change in the environment. All cultures have a way of cleansing that usually involves incinerating something. Blessing your home or work environment brings the best qualities into any space.

In this podcast, ShamanWeaver Shiela Baker describes how to smudge yourself with sage and how to smudge your home with sage and sweetgrass. Sage burns quickly and easily and the smoke is dense enough to see it going back into the corners of your house. Sweetgrass has a beautiful smell and is used to draw sweet new energy back into your house. A blessing invites positive attributes into your place.

By cleansing yourself and your environment with smudge and using a burden basket then offering a blessing, you bring more love and compassion, less trouble and strife, and all this by three simple things: a burden basket, a lighting of sage and a blessing.

A belief is a thought or an idea that you have told yourself over and over enough times that you then believe it. What if it doesn’t have to be that way? What if those outdated beliefs are actually holding you back from having what you want? What if your heart’s desire is easy to get, within reach and there for YOU?

You can see just now in the world, whenever this is, that we don’t know our neighbors now, we don’t know our community, we’re not connected to anyone in the outer world.

Now the beautiful part of having phones and Internet is that you get the ability to connect and see people all over the world, and just looking outside of your small enclave about this very fundamental belief gets you to have a step back, a perspective on oh, well maybe that belief isn’t true any longer. And there are some beliefs that are true for a certain period of time but they no longer have any validity.

Just sit down for a few moments, write out what’s not working in your life and then have a look at the belief that’s connected with that. And then ask yourself, is this belief something that’s true for me now? And then you have a piece of information for yourself.

The other thing to ask yourself is, where did this belief come from? How did I get this belief? And you might notice that some of the beliefs come from your elders.

Now you have a plan. Look at your beliefs, write down everything that you want in your life and look at what you don’t have and look at the beliefs that are attached to that. I call this Bust Your Bogus Beliefs. So you’ve got your beliefs, you’ve got what you want, you’ve got which beliefs attached to what you’re not getting. So you have your desires, your wants, and you have your beliefs about why you don’t have those. Then you can look at the beliefs, where did they come from, and you can send them back if they no longer serve you.
