“With Light Language, the Guardians of the [Akashic] Records told me, 'You're going to start speaking light language.' And I'm like, 'I don't want to do that.' And they said, 'Well, you're going to. It's a part of your path.' And I said, 'No, I don't think so.' Because it's really weird! It's very, very weird! And so, for anybody that's listening and they don't know what Light Language is; it's the cosmic language of your sou."


Amy Robeson, Akashic Records Teacher, Spiritual Coach, & Healer, brings us one of the most fun conversations today both in English and in Light Language! Holy crap, you're going to love this if you're like me, and you love the world of the weird! Here's what's covered:

• What the heck is Light Language and how is it helpful to us?
• In what ways does light language come through to us?
• Amy offers a live interpretation of symbols I received in meditation
• Amy conducts a healing for the audience (do not drive or operate machinery while listening to this healing experience).

“I love what Bill [McKenna] says here; he says everything that exists was once an idea. So think about that when you're manifesting something; you're pulling it into your energy. It starts up in your head, and works its way down to the first chakra, which is reality, the base of your existence."

“The idea is that we are all one; we are not separate from that which we want to attract into our life. Including straight up money, if that's what you're looking for. The love of your life, if that's what you're looking for. A new keyboard is something I'd like right now! I am going to manifest that. There are lots of things you can create in your life through manifesting."
