Why? – Continued

Halfway through the course I was teaching at the time, the eleven class members asked me if I would be teaching another course – an advanced one. I told them that, if I got the numbers, I would do one, and asked if they would put their names down for it if they wanted to do it. All eleven students put their names down, and five of them offered to pay their deposit. They asked when I could do it and I mentioned the following year. They wanted it that year. In fact, they mentioned September. I realized that I could teach the course in September and it dawned on me then that, if I did, I would have the money to go to the US in October and teach there. I called my friend, and she laughed and told me she knew I was going. I had to wait to get our plane tickets until just before we went, but again the Universe provided two empty seats on the plane, which was extremely hard to get in those days. Usually seats were booked way ahead of the flights.

I have had so many experiences such as that one over the years. On one particular occasion we had a breakfast show in Palmerston North in New Zealand; we lived in Taupo, a five hour drive. It was mid-winter, very cold and, even before we set out, I did not want to go. The Self part of me just wanted to get back into bed and cancel the trip. It would have been so easy to do, but the Higher Self part of me did get out of bed. Despite the first road we traveled being closed and us having to go the long way around to get there, we did get there, and I did the radio show.

The brother that I recently found after 25 years had been on my website, seen my accomplishments, and commented on how proud he is of me for doing what I have done. To be perfectly honest, I do not know how I did it. It took a lot of discipline.

I heard through a friend of mine that this woman had found a lump in her breast and had gone to visit the doctor. My friend said her husband, also a friend of mine, was very worried about his wife. Maitreya, my teacher, came in at that time and told me that she would not find anything amiss as, with all the work she had done on herself, the lump was benign. But had she not done the work on herself, it would have been a problem! Lo and behold, the next thing I learned a few days later was that the lump was benign and nothing to worry about. I had worked with this woman over the previous two and a bit years to clear away the old energy some from this life, some from a past life, and worked on anger, hate, frustration, sorrow, sadness etc. I watched her blossom and gain more confidence as she released all of the old energy from her past. The woman is now a healer herself working with the Bach Flower Essences (www.KarensHealingHands.com). What better a person to help you heal than one who has healed herself!

Over the years I have seen so many people transform themselves – leave behind their pain and their old stagnant energy – and move on to a better, healthier life. One of the misnomers I find hard to understand is the fact that people seem surprised when a channel or medium gets sick themselves. People seem to think that we are invincible, yet the work we do – working with the energy of Spirit –is very hard to deal with. It puts excessive strain on the body, strain that the body really finds hard to deal with, especially if there are past injuries within the body. It can make one feel excessively tired. I do not know now how I did it in my middle forties: 40 readings a week, two classes (one morning, one night), a magazine column, a radio show, and a couple of past-life readings! But I did it.

Advice and Guidance

I often receive email from readers of my blog or our radio show who feel they have the answers to the issues I experience, especially anything to do with my health. From the very beginning, my teacher, Maitreya, told me I would be taken care of with regard to my health and not to worry about it. He also informed me that I have a doctor who is looking after me from the world of Spirit and that energy would let me know if I need to see a doctor. I have nothing in my astrological natal (birth) chart in my house of health, or of work and service and I must state that, for most of my life, I have been very well and healthy. Apart from having my children, a small operation on a cyst many years ago, and a tonsillitis operation when I was eight years of age, that is the sum total of health issues I have experienced.

My grandson has a lot of health issues to deal with: visits to the hospital, leg casts every few months, and recently this year a big problem with his teeth – all because he does have issues in his house of health and healing. My granddaughter in the same family also has issues planetary wise in her sixth house of health and healing. Over the years I have come to be aware of when those in the world of Spirit require me to listen to them. Recently, a week before we left on our trip to Curacao, I had a small health problem and went into my astrology program to find out what was happening. Maitreya led me to this program in 1997, and since then it has been a valuable help to me when I have had health issues; most of them being stress or exhaustion related.

Observations – Continued

I did not realize what I was doing, of course. I had sort of retired and I know my Self did not want to go back to work. It was enjoying the time it had to do creative work and spend time doing other things beside metaphysics. It was doing a few classes and a few readings and was happy. After many years of working so hard (at one stage I was doing 40 readings a week, traveling, a radio show, magazine and newspaper columns, and a couple of past lives), it was wonderful to rest and not have so much to do. Then the subject of becoming public raised its head. At this time I was also doing our radio show which we began in 2005, but that (as far as I was concerned) was again behind the scenes and not being seen in the public arena.

My knee problem began when I hired a personal trainer in 2007 and my already-weak knee was subjected to punishing exercise routines which it did not like. My Self conveniently tore a tendon which stopped all form of exercise. From then on, the knee got worse, and all the travel we did at that time did not help. It was a slow decline, but one which was painful at times and, as time passed, became more so – to the extent that I began using a cane and started using a handicapped placard when we parked the car so I could be nearer to the door of the shops I visited. I was so busy with my life that I could not see what I was doing to myself. I was offered the opportunity to see a doctor who specialized in knee surgery but declined because I just could not envisage myself having surgery. By now I had discovered natural creams (which helped with the aches and pains the problem created) along with a magnetic mattress and magnetic healing tools which really helped me enormously. However, as we got closer to doing our TV show, the pain got worse.

Lost Souls – Part 2 Continued

Thursday morning I was very tired after doing a day’s work after our return, but thought a day at home before the radio show would assist in helping me gain back energy as I felt so drained and tired. In my email that morning was one from a colleague at work who keeps an eye on this blog to let me know the blog ran out in two days’ time and I needed to do another. So I did a blog in the morning and then went in to do the radio show which I had to do on my own as Alan had gone away to his other job in Spokane. I did a lot of readings on air – which is also draining – but when I have energy, I am OK I also did an interview and a natal chart reading. After the show (and using all the energy –I had to do the radio show and other work) I could hardly walk. I was so drained. I realized for the first time that I had been running on my reserve energy and was now at the bottom of the barrel. I realized too late that I should never have gone into work on Wednesday but stayed home and rested all day and night.

Friday I woke up with, for me, the usual signs of energy starvation, a sore throat, flu-like symptoms (but I do not have the flu), very loose bowels, and feeling so sore all over that I feel as if I have done 15 rounds with a boxing champion. To make it worse, Alan came back from his trip to Spokane (where he had gone to work at his other company) as sore as I was, with mouth sores and extreme tiredness and exhaustion. We made a right pair I can tell you, and it is made worse because Alan has only just begun experiencing these symptoms whereas I have had them since connecting with Maitreya in 1992.
