Welcome to Postcards to the Universe with Melissa Capria. Do you believe in magic?
0:14
What if you were told that all you had to do was get a
0:17
little creative and work a magic spell to bring anything you can imagine into your
0:22
life. Here on Postcards to the Universe, we will share manifesting tips,
0:28
postcards, creativity, abundance, and prosperity. Here's your host, Melissa Capria.
0:37
Hello and welcome to Postcards to the Universe with Melissa creating the Life you
0:41
crave. It's Wednesday. How's everybody doing. I hope you guys are doing
0:46
well. Originally I had a different guess that was going to join me this
0:51
week, but he had to cancel, so I replaced him with a wonderful
0:57
guess, psychic Media Matthew Stateley. He's going to join me in just a
1:00
few minutes. Matthew was on my show a year ago. I looked it
1:03
up in March of twenty twenty two, and I loved having him so much
1:07
that I asked him to come back and he said yes, so he'll be
1:10
out and like I said, just a couple of minutes. I want to
1:14
say a warm welcome to all my regulars who listened to me every week.
1:18
Thank you guys for joining me. I really appreciate you being with me.
1:21
It means so much when I hear that you listen to my show and you
1:26
like it and you love the guests that I have on. So I'm really
1:29
really grateful for that. So I want to say thank you. Now.
1:30
If you are tuning into me for the first time, I want to say
1:36
a big, warm welcome, thank you so much. A little bit about
1:40
me. I am an artist, I'm a photographer. I'm also an author,
1:44
and I have a book and it's titled Postcards to the Universe, Harness
1:48
the Universe's power and manifest your dreams. And in the book, I have
1:53
thirty manifesting stories along with the photographs that I took of the contributors manifesting Postcards,
2:00
and I include a bunch of writing exercises and it helps us get clear
2:04
on what it is we want to manifest because we're not always quite sure what
2:07
that is a lot of times we just want to manifest better health or more
2:10
joy or more abundance, and we're not really sure how to do that.
2:14
So that's what the writing exercises are for. There's also a toolbox full of
2:19
fun exercises on how to manifest, you know, in the main areas of
2:23
our life, which is love, money, health, career, and so
2:27
much more so. If you're interested in doing inner work exercises and reading people's
2:30
incredible journeys of transformation and inspiration and manifesting, you can find my book online
2:38
or your favorite bookstore. Postcards to the Universe, So thank you. I
2:43
ask each week for people to keep sending me a manifesting postcard. And if
2:47
you're like, what are you talking about, I don't know how to make
2:50
one of those. It's kind of like a little minivision board, and I
2:53
show you and tell you how to make it on my website Postcards to the
2:58
Universe dot com, and you can make it and send it to me,
3:01
and the address of where to send it is also listed on my website.
3:06
I'm all over social media, so you can find me on there too,
3:08
And if you like Facebook, I have a public Facebook group called Postcards of
3:14
Love. You can join me over there where I like to share funny and
3:16
uplifting posts. So each week I share a magical message. I call it
3:22
a magical message, and I post it on Mondays and I put it across
3:25
all of my social media and it's an image of a manifesting postcard that I
3:30
like to photograph, my interpretation of how I photograph it with the affirmation because
3:35
I love affirmations. I think they're extremely powerful ways to become new beliefs in
3:38
our lives. So this week's a magical message is make your own magic.
3:45
And this is a quote from JK. Brawling which I love, which is
3:50
we do not need magic to change the world. We carry all the power
3:53
we need inside ourselves already. We have the power to imagine better. With
4:00
my guests today, we're going to be talking a lot about making our own
4:02
magic. So next week I have a Burgida Visser. She's a sole empowerment
4:09
coach and a light configurator delivering messages from many light beings to aid to the
4:15
aid of humanity. So she's going to be giving us messages from the Archangels,
4:20
ascended Masters, light being. So that's going to be really really interesting.
4:24
So join me next week. Okay, So to get to my guest
4:28
today, Matthew Stateley. He is a naturally gifted full sensory psychic medium,
4:33
public speaker, minister and teacher serving people in communities worldwide. His drive to
4:39
help others lead to the creation of several projects that have supported thousands of people
4:45
worldwide. And this is a quote this I found this on his website.
4:48
If people knew how unconditionally loved and supported they are by beings that they cannot
4:55
see, then this world would be a very different place. Matthew currently teach
5:00
just classes and medianship, psychic Development and Healing, provides private one on one
5:04
and group sessions, free readings and messages from Spirit weekly on social media,
5:10
and appears frequently as a guest on various media and social media platforms. You

5:23
T h E w stately stapl ey dot com. Welcome Matthew, thanks for
5:29
joining me today. Hey Melissa, thank you very much for having me back
5:33
on your show. I'm super stoked to be here. Yeah, me too,
5:38
I'm so excited. So, like I said, you were here.
5:40
I looked it up. You were here in March of twenty twenty two,
5:43
and I'm so glad. A year has gone by so fast. It's crazy.
5:46
It's crazy how fast it's gone by. I know, so share.
5:53
So why don't you share a little bit about you know, who you are,
5:57
what you do, the kind of work that you're into, and how
6:00
you sort of got into this for those who are listening to you for the
6:02
first time. Sure. Yeah, so well I like long walks on the
6:08
beach and just kidding. So I don't know why that's my default answer anytimes
6:15
somebody test tell me about yourself. So well, basically, you know,
6:19
I was What happened with me is similar to what happened with lots of other
6:24
psychics and mediums. You know, we were born with this sensitivity and this
6:28
ability to connect with the other side, and for me, it started,
6:32
you know, showing up at a pretty young age. I would say the
6:35
first experience I remember was when I was eight years old. But I know
6:39
that my family and my mom especially had told me that there were a lot
6:42
of other things that had happened well before that. And you know, as
6:46
I grew up, like many other human beings, I went through all kinds
6:49
of my own ups and downs and life challenges, and at a young age,
6:54
and then as a teenager, I started seeing auras around people, and
6:59
I can find that with my ability to receive messages and things like that,
7:04
and started doing readings for people and it just kind of kept growing and growing
7:08
and growing, and here we are almost twenty years later. Yeah, you
7:13
love the work that you do, right, I mean, it really is
7:15
fulfilling for you, very much so, and especially when it comes to showing
7:20
other people how to do it. I love seeing people surprise themselves because I'm
7:26
of the belief that everybody's connected. Everybody is having a subtle conversation with the
7:32
universe around them pretty much constantly, and so, you know, the only
7:35
difference between somebody like me and somebody who learns to do this over, you
7:41
know, through practicing, is that you know, I was born with it
7:45
switched on. But but I believe it's something that everyone can switch on.
7:47
And that's something that I think is beautiful about the universe and the spirit world
7:51
and all of that, as we're actually all connected to that as well as
7:56
each other, which I think is awesome. I think that everybody has this
8:01
innate gift and we just have to learn how to tap into it. One,
8:05
you know. I think that there's that like mystery spark of life,
8:11
you know, within within every cell of our body. And I really believe
8:15
that that spark is kind of like a little piece of God or Divinity or
8:18
whatever you want to identify it as within all of us. And I think,
8:22
because that is within all of us, we are ultimately connected to the
8:28
universe around us. And I think that it's just a matter of sort of
8:31
figuring out how you're already receiving and doing it at a conscious level rather than
8:37
um, you know, it's not really developing something new so much as it
8:43
is working with something that's already there that you're just not aware of. Right,
8:46
Yeah, that makes I mean, that makes total sense. I mean
8:50
I feel like we a lot of people I know will say, oh,
8:52
I had this experience, you know, instead of they get scared, you
8:58
know, and instead of a pasticating if people get scared and they shut down,
9:01
they're like, Nope, I don't want it, I don't want to
9:03
see it. Whatever is you stay stay over there, you know, because
9:07
it is scary. Well, I'm going to let you share what is because
9:09
you call yourself a full sensory psychic medium, and what is that and what's
9:16
the difference between a psychic and a psychic medium. Ooh, that's these are
9:20
good questions. So, um, So, when we're looking at the ways
9:24
that different types of sensitive people receive information. At a psychic level, there's
9:30
something called the Claire abilities, which is, you know, clairvoyance and Claire
9:33
sentience and Claire audience and cognizance and so on. And so somebody who's got
9:39
full sensory ability means that they can use all of the Claire abilities. And
9:45
it's not necessarily that they're always switched on all the time, but it can.
9:48
You know, some messages or readings might be more clairvoyantly heavy and other
9:52
ones might be more Clare sentient or cognizanter audience, and so full sensory just
9:56
means that it's a medium that can use all of the Claire the clear talents
10:01
or clear perceptions. And then a psychic is somebody that and we're all psychic,
10:09
but a psychic in this sense of somebody who's aware of their ability to
10:11
receive information, and this type of reception is more of like a feeling it
10:16
or sensing it, and that's the psychic part. A medium is somebody that
10:20
can receive messages and this can be from the spirit world of people who have
10:26
passed on. Some people will only connect with people's spirit guides or angels.
10:30
But basically, anytime you're bringing information from one dimension to another through a person,
10:35
that person is a medium. And there's all different kinds of mediums out
10:39
there. And I even believe I take it a step further, and I
10:41
think anytime somebody's bringing energy consciously from one dimensional space into another through their being
10:48
their medium as well. So even things like energy healing I think is a
10:52
form of mediumship. But everyone hates me when I say that because it's not
10:56
fancy necessarily, and people often put psychic mediums who communicate with people who have
11:05
passed on, like evidential mediums like me onto some kind of pedestal, like
11:09
we're like super special, and I just don't see it that way. So
11:13
it's my dollar on that one. No, that's a really good way of
11:18
explaining because a lot of people don't understand the difference, right, because some
11:20
people think that if you have psychic abilities, you also can connect with people
11:24
who have passed on, But that's not necessarily true. They may not be
11:28
practiced in that, so that might be right, might not be open,
11:31
yeah exactly, But but oh sorry, go ahead, no, no,
11:35
no, go go ahead, you expound on that what we're going to say.
11:39
Sure, I was just going to say, but but I have seen
11:41
lots of people be able to develop mediumship, and it really is just connecting
11:46
with a different sort of plane, right, So we're looking at feeling things
11:48
out psychically. Well, that's very third dimensional. That's very three D and
11:52
a little bit into the fourth dimensional or astral world. When we're talking about
11:56
mediumship, we're talking about connecting to the fifth dimensional space and above or beyond,
12:01
and so really people that have switched on psychic abilities or who learned to
12:05
switch it on over time, they can learn to connect with those higher realms.
12:09
The mediumship is something that everybody can learn to do. It will come
12:13
more easily to some people than others, but at the same but at the
12:16
same time, as long as people are willing to put in the work and
12:20
the dedication, they can absolutely develop it. Yeah, it's so fascinating.
12:26
It really just fascinates me so much. Like um, yeah, it really
12:31
does, because you know, there's so many I mean, we know we
12:35
can measure energy right in different forms, so it's just so when somebody passes
12:41
on their body changes and the energy changes, and so there are those like
12:46
you who are tapped into that and can connect with that, which just to
12:50
me is you know, like unbelievable because I am of the mind that our
12:56
soul keeps going on, you know, our spirit too going on. I
13:01
don't think like the body goes and that's it. It worked on you know,
13:03
and we'd yeah, yeah. So when you teach your classes, you
13:11
have because um, I know you do one on one, you do one
13:15
on ones, but also you teach like people in a class right to talk
13:20
to their gifts. You want to talk a little bit about that. Aren't
13:22
you have something coming up tomorrow? I do, yeah, right now.
13:28
Sure. So I'm actually so excited to teach tomorrow night. So it's at
13:33
seven pm Eastern time, and it's actually me and a really good friend of
13:37
mine. She's an amazing author and just this really cool human being. Her
13:43
name is Mary and Catherine Backstrom, um, and she is just so from
13:46
the heart and she's a true EmPATH. And so we're actually teaching a class
13:52
tomorrow night together on you know, managing empathy in the stress that comes from
13:56
being an EmPATH or just an or you know, an energy sensitive person or
14:01
a highly sensitive person, and so we've got a really awesome class planned out
14:05
for tomorrow night. So, you know, anybody that is struggling with feeling
14:09
overwhelmed, or perhaps they are so deeply emotional that it's it's sort of destabilizing
14:16
for them a lot of the time when they're feeling the emotions or feels of
14:20
other people, or anybody who's even psychically sensitive that gets overwhelmed because of energy,
14:28
they'll absolutely be able to benefit from it. And we're really going to
14:31
be teaching tools across all different things, so you know, very mental emotional
14:37
tools, spiritual, energetic tools, physical tools. So we're going to be
14:41
really diving, doing a deep dive into empathic ability. And Mary Catherine is
14:46
somebody with a lot of experience in learning to manage at a mental emotional level
14:50
the intense feeling that she has in compassion that she has for the world around
14:56
her. And so she's going to be you know, speaking from her really
15:01
profound experiences of how to manage that those things and how to know what's yours
15:05
and what you should carry and what you shouldn't. And then I'm going to
15:09
come in after her and I'm going to teach some you know, spiritual techniques
15:15
and talk a little bit about, you know, how empathy and energy sensitivity
15:20
works at a very energetic level. So I'm going to like kind of make
15:24
it a little bit more technical, and I'm going to give people tools and
15:28
real tangible things that they can use that day and going forward to help them
15:33
to not be so overwhelmed by the world energy. And the course is called
15:37
Mastering Empathy, Learning to survive and thrive as an EmPATH in a heavy world.
15:43
So I'm super stoked about it. Yes, tomorrow at seven. Where
15:46
can people find it? Is it on Facebook? Are you doing it on
15:48
Facebook? We're doing it through zoom, but they can go to my Facebook
15:54
page and they'll see or Mary Catherine's either one and they'll see like the link
15:58
to sign up in everything seven till what time are you guys doing it?
16:03
Is it just a one night thing or is it it's yeah, it's just
16:06
it's just a one night thing. It's we're supposed to be two and a
16:07
half hours, but me and Mary Catherine know that we'd both we both ever
16:12
shut up, So it's gonna be going longer than longer than that, I'm
16:17
sure. Oh, that sounds really really good. Yeah, So because you
16:22
were saying about being an EmPATH and being sensitive to the energy. So yeah,
16:26
let's talk a little bit about that, because sure, God, what
16:30
is going on in this world? How do you know, like for people
16:33
who are wondering if they're like I wonder if that's me, because they haven't
16:37
figured out like what the heck is going on with them? Like what shows
16:41
up for us and pass or the people that feel the energies and we're so
16:47
sensitive, like how does that manifest in our physical you know, space,
16:51
Like what does that look? Yeah? You know what, I'm so glad
16:53
that you asked this question because I want to start off by saying, in
16:57
the last couple of years, I've seen more people going through and awakening and
17:03
a sensitizing to energy than I've ever seen in my entire life. And I
17:07
think, you know, there's a lot of change in the earth plane in
17:11
life. If you've looked outside recently, it's a little weird, you know.
17:17
So I'm not surprised that more and more people are awakening. But so
17:21
one thing that I've noticed in this process of this big shift in the way
17:26
that people are experiencing things that are new to them. Is a lot of
17:30
people are feeling things, but they don't have any idea what it is.
17:33
And I've seen this two very different groups of people. One group thinks that
17:37
they're crazy and losing their mind, and the other group knows that it's something
17:41
spiritual or energetic happening. And so even across that though, there's definitely some
17:48
signs that people can look for within their day to day experiences. And of
17:52
course, the first one and the most common for any EmPATH is when you
17:55
go to the shopping mall, how do you feel most empathic people when they
18:00
are in public and around a lot of people will get instantly drained and they'll
18:03
feel totally off balance anxious. Even so, that's like one big, you
18:08
know, shining beacon of empathic light. Another one is that that empaths are
18:15
always very compassionate people, and they're very drawn to help other people, and
18:18
they feel other people's experiences at their core. Now, at this juncture,
18:26
I would like to talk about the difference between somebody who's empathic and who's energy
18:30
sensitive, because all empaths are energy sensitive, but not all energy sensitive people
18:36
are empathic. And this is something that I think people might find interesting.
18:41
So an EmPATH, it's very emotional. It can also be physical, where
18:44
if someone they walk by somebody with a sore hip, then all of a
18:47
sudden they have a sore hip. That's very physical. But for people who
18:51
are non empathic energy sensitives, they will feel it in their body. Cleare
18:55
sentiently and it can feel very weird and off balance and de staateabilizing. And
19:00
of course this would, you know, be a conclusion they would draw after
19:03
they've already checked out every other possible cause of being off all right, for
19:08
sure. But yeah, so so these are some of the ways that people
19:12
can know whether they're empathic. And of course all almost all empaths have anxiety
19:18
issues or they feel overwhelmed a lot. They go through burnouts faster and more
19:22
often than most people. They feel compelled to help the world around them,
19:26
like it's not even a choice that they have, They just feel so drawn
19:29
to help others. Um So these are these are, you know, um
19:33
the big signs. I would say there's several more, but those are the
19:36
big ones. Yeah, totally makes sense. Um So it will manifest thought
19:42
in your body physically, right, like you can have physical symptoms like if
19:47
you're oh yeah, if you're in a space where you're feeling the energy and
19:52
it's overwhelming, you could start feeling like, you know, caucious headaches,
19:57
like yeah, all that stuff. Yeah, because I get like that sometimes
20:00
and it's yeah, you know, and a lot of people do. And
20:04
you know what, that's something that a lot of people that in insomnia with
20:07
really weird dreams is like usually what people notice at the beginning of that awakening
20:14
process is they can feel a shift happening, and they often feel kind of
20:18
ungrounded, right, and they get a little bit overwhelmed, and they feel
20:21
physically off balanced, just like you've described. Um so yeah, like I've
20:26
seen so many people recently experiencing that. Do you feel that way sometimes when
20:32
you go out in public? Um? Yeah, definitely sure. I like
20:40
protect your ground yourself or protect yourself. You have a little ritual that you
20:44
do to keep you oh for sure. Yeah. You know, a lot
20:47
of it is is just learning to know and notice what's yours and what's not
20:51
right. And this is one thing that we're going to cover pretty extensively tomorrow
20:55
night, is you know, how to tell like, is what I'm feeling
20:59
my own experience or am I picking up on something that isn't mine at all?
21:03
And so that's like the big thing with empathy is like when people can
21:07
you realize that what they're feeling isn't actually coming from their own personal experience,
21:12
then they can be aware of the feeling or the sensation or the emotion,
21:17
but it doesn't feel personal anymore. And that is one of the biggest tools
21:21
that empaths need to have in their toolbox. And I'm excited about about showing
21:26
showing people that one. I think it's yeah, it's it's very helpful.
21:30
I think a lot of us need that, right because because you'll go somewhere,
21:33
you may leave your house, you're feeling good, you go somewhere and
21:37
then all of a sudden, everything shits and you're like, wait a second,
21:41
just happened? You know, Yeah, it'll be good to know like
21:45
is this mine? Or did I just take on that other? Exactly because
21:52
totally, Because the other part of empathy is the ability to transmute, and
21:56
all empaths are transmute. They they're kind of like trees where they take in
22:02
the carbon dioxide or the not so great, you know, vibe, and
22:07
they process it through their own experience and then put out good energy or oxygen
22:12
if there were a tree. So, I mean, all all empaths have
22:17
that in common, and I think that's why they're so drawn to help,
22:21
but also why they're just so tired all the time because they're constantly, you
22:25
know, processing things at a very deep level that that isn't theirs at all.
22:30
Yeah. Yeah, that makes a lot of sense. It's it's an
22:34
exhaustion. It's a different kind of exhaustion. I don't know how to explain
22:40
it. I only know that since I've been aware of it more aware of
22:42
it, I've noticed it more. You know, like a lot of times
22:47
I'll leave a situation and I have to completely like shut everything off for like
22:52
a little while, you know, Like I'll get into you know, my
22:56
a book that I like or just something that I can like reground myself,
23:00
and I have to shut the phone off, shut everything off, don't bother
23:03
me, you know, because it's the only way that I can get myself
23:08
back, because it just takes me so off kilter, you know, and
23:12
I'm so much more irritable, you know, yes, exactly, And that
23:18
that irritability is also very common with empathic people, and I always think of
23:22
it like when an EmPATH gets burnt out or exhausted, or nearing that burnout
23:26
or exhaustion. Like, I think the irritability, at least in part,
23:30
comes from that self preservation, right, that that defense of your last little
23:34
spark of energy that you have, that little ember within you that's still trucking.
23:40
I think that that that irritability often comes from sort of a place of
23:44
defending that last little bit of energy that you have. Yeah, I mean,
23:49
yeah, So just I'll just give you a quick example. So yesterday,
23:53
I've been you know, my sister passed away last year, so I've
23:57
been spending a lot more time with my family, and I've been spending more
24:02
days there. I sleep there, you know, it's not far from me,
24:04
and I'll stay there longer. There's a lot of drama, you know,
24:07
elderly parents, sisters, brother in law's kids, like, just a
24:11
lot. So yesterday I came home and I had a zoom call at two
24:17
o'clock in the afternoon, and I'm sitting on the zoom call and all of
24:19
a sudden, I got nauseous. It just hit me. When I tell
24:22
you, Matthew, out of nowhere. I got so nauchious. Thank god.
24:26
There was like five people on the zoom call and I was on mute.
24:30
I had to run to the bathroom. Oh my gosh. And then
24:34
I was okay afterwards for a little while. But after zoom call, I
24:37
had to lay down and I and this has never happened to me like this
24:41
before. I had to lay down for the whole rest of the day.
24:44
And I went to bed at like eight o'clock at night and I never do
24:47
that, and slept till this morning, and I still feel off, and
24:49
I don't know what it is. It's so weird. Yeah, it sounds
24:55
to me like you've absorbed a bunch of stuff that's not yours. So I
24:59
think then next step would be just to basically get a little bit of grounding
25:03
downtime, I think, you know, and really kind of come back to
25:07
your baseline, come back to center. I think that's vital, vital in
25:12
these situations for sure. Yeah, it was. I've never had an experience
25:18
like that, you know. And I'm like, did I just get like
25:19
a stomach book like that something? Just because the way it came on me
25:23
was so bizarre. It wasn't like you know, when you're not feeling well,
25:26
you're getting sick. It's slow, you slowly start to feel worse.
25:30
Yeah, it wasn't like that. It was like I was fine and then
25:33
all of a sudden, is waiting hit by a truck. Yeah, it
25:37
was hit by a truck. And I was fingering after coming off a lot
25:41
of this intense energy that my body just said nope, totally, totally.
25:49
And that's something that a lot of a lot of sensitives, and I think
25:53
people in general go through right well, like when their body is done,
25:56
they often will develop either a full on it illness or at least symptoms of
26:00
one. And I think sometimes that's our our body being like, okay,
26:04
you need rest, and we're shutting down and you need to chill, especially
26:10
if it goes away quickly, you know. Yeah, yeah it no,
26:12
it made me stay. I couldn't. I was it. I had no
26:17
choice but to rest yesterday. It was like we are knocking you out.
26:22
It was just the most bizarre feeling I've ever had in my life. So
26:27
sir, yeah, it's it's the full stop like go to the hermit cave
26:33
kind of like kind of shut my phone off. Nobody could talk to me
26:37
for twenty four hours exactly. You know, and I think that before you
26:44
go, let's let's take our break. Let's take I just think at the
26:45

30:49
if you're just joining me today, I have psychic media. Matthew stately with
30:55
me. So, Matthew, I was thinking during the break we were talking
31:00
a little bit earlier in the show about how, um, everybody has the
31:06
abilities to tap into our psychic you know, our psychic side, our Claire
31:11
from the Claire's right. So, um, how could we um? What's
31:18
the question I want to ask you. I'm trying to think about the best
31:22
way to ask the question. Let's say somebody's listening and they really want to
31:26
start doing that, Like, what would be the first thing that you would
31:30
tell somebody to start doing. Is there somebody we should be listening to?
31:34
Should we be going to see take classes that like you are offering, Like,
31:40
what could we be doing in our or in our daily life to be
31:42
more open to that? I think that's a great question, and it really
31:48
um comes down to one thing. So we can learn all of the theory
31:53
we want in the world. We can you know, we can learn about
31:56
auras and chockras and dimensions and you know, all these things. But in
32:00
my experience in teaching, which I've been doing for almost as long, you
32:06
know, as I've been reading. I've been reading professionally for twenty years,
32:07
and I've been teaching for like sixteen or seventeen years. And the one thing
32:13
that I really learned in being a teacher is that the learning is really in
32:17
the doing. And so if someone wants to take courses or they even want
32:22
to learn on their own, there's some very basic things that they'll absolutely need
32:25
to learn how to do, like how to ground themselves and clear their energy
32:30
field and recognize what's their energy and not their energy. But outside of that,
32:35
it's really about just practicing it. And whether you are starting off with
32:39
a tool like tarot cards or rooms or something like that, or you want
32:44
to just jump in and go with no tools at all, the main thing
32:47
is to practice on people that you have never met before or don't know very
32:52
well. That way, it's more objective. And then the other side of
32:55
it is to do it regularly and to not be afraid of being wrong,
33:00
because that's the one thing that almost every student has in common, is that
33:04
they're nervous about being wrong in the information that they're that they're receiving or perceiving
33:09
and so that's a big thing, is just learning to just give it anyway.
33:14
And what people will often learn is the crazier something sounds to them,
33:19
the more accurate it probably is. And so that's my biggest piece of advice.
33:23
And outside of that, also just understanding that when we're open to having
33:28
a conversation with the universe around us, it will have a conversation with us
33:31
back, and so becoming aware of things that could be signs or you know,
33:37
communications, even through things like nature can be a very beautiful experience.
33:42
And of course with that you just want to feel out, you know,
33:45
with your gut feeling or your inner resonance detector, like, is what I'm
33:50
experiencing a message for me? And then of course you can look up what
33:52
the symbolism is, either in books or online or whatever. But I think
33:55
the main thing with developing any type of extra sensory perception, whether it be
34:00
psychic or mediumistic or both, is by doing it by actually having hands on
34:06
practice, which is the method that I teach in every class. So for
34:10
example, in the thirtieth of April this month, I'm starting a six week
34:14
online program. It's live in Zoom and it's one that I teach regularly throughout
34:20
the year. Each class might have fifteen minutes of theory, but then like
34:24
you know, almost an hour and a half at least a practice, very
34:28
hands on practice, and that's just what I believe is the best way to
34:31
learn. Yeah, that makes that makes total sense. Practice like anything else,
34:37
right, practice. Yeah, you're building your spiritual muscles, right,
34:43
so you have to practice exactly what it is. So what do you think
34:47
about what's going on right now? And do you do astrology too or does
34:52
that as that part of your practice? Do you bring in the planets into
34:54
your work? Like what do you think's going on right now with the energies
34:59
of the world and you know us? And like what's your intuitive hit?
35:05
Like sure, yeah, Matthew, you know I I actually do. I
35:12
love astrology, but I am not I am no astrologer. UM. So
35:17
for me, I've always had this ability to be aware of mass consciousness and
35:22
what's you know, going on in the ether so to speak. UM.
35:25
And I can say that over the last few years, you know, we
35:29
have been in a huge process of moving into um, you know, higher
35:35
dimensional space. And I don't mean like we're all going to lose our bodies
35:38
and all of a sudden, you know, join this oneness of the fifth
35:42
dimension. Um. What I mean is that, you know, as as
35:45
individuals and as a collective, we're always moving towards a higher point of light.
35:49
That's you know, the direction the universe expands is upwards in a sense,
35:53
and so um. And so because of that, when we are moving,
36:00
you know, through like a threshold in ascension of all of us as
36:06
individuals and as a collective, we go through periods where we've got to shake
36:09
off the heaviest things. But in order to do that, those heavy things
36:14
have to surface so that we can work through them and you know, resolve
36:16
them or let them go or whatever. And I think over the last few
36:20
years that's exactly what's been happening, And especially in the last year, we're
36:24
seeing all kinds of division among people socially and politically and so on. And
36:30
I think this is a great example of all of the things we need to
36:34
let go of beginning to surface and people examining them and fighting about them and
36:37
arguing and all of that. It's all a process of resolution. But you
36:42
know, what I think is interesting about us humans is that we're always in
36:45
a state of resolution constantly with even at a physiological biochemical level, we're constantly
36:52
taking in multiple variables and creating balance out of them. And so we're seeing
36:59
that play out at a consciousness level at this time. And I think this
37:01
is why so many people are feeling this heaviness constantly, is that, you
37:07
know, everything, people are just becoming aware of everything. And of course
37:10
with ascension or moving to a higher vibrational space as individuals and as a collective,
37:15
the other side of that is that people do become more sensitive and they
37:20
are faced with their own stuff that they need to let go of or embrace
37:23
or both. And so I think that's a big part of what's happening in
37:27
the world right now. But you do think that we're moving into um,
37:34
I guess lighter consciousness more it's light, you know, because sometimes you look
37:39
at the world and it just feels so heavy and people are so messed up,
37:44
and you're just like, oh my god, right, like yeah,
37:47
yeah, exactly, And I think it's important. Go ahead, So are
37:53
going to throw in that. I know social media, does you know?
37:57
It puts a spotlight on that, right We're you know, years ago when
38:00
we didn't have social media. We didn't always know what was going on everywhere,
38:04
and now we do twenty four hours a day, so that does get
38:07
to be a little overwhelming. It's super yeah, no, it's super overwhelming.
38:14
I think that what we gotta the way that we got to look at
38:16
it is the heaviness that everybody's feeling was already here, right and this,
38:22
but it was buried and so now it's surfacing, and so it's becoming you
38:27
know, we're becoming aware of it consciously, and we're seeing it as if
38:30
it's for the first time. But the truth is all of this tension and
38:34
heaviness and difficulty was already there, and now it's it's sort of in the
38:39
arena. We can see it. And what's even more important than that is
38:44
that we can work with it. We can actually do something about it.
38:47
And I think that's what's happening. And while it's not overnight, because you
38:52
know, us humans, we need to now hot the stove is, so
38:54
we're going to stick around right on the burner, you know. I think
38:58
it is a positive thing, even though it may not always feel that way.
39:01
I think it's a great example that some of the best things are also
39:06
the hardest things, right, that's true. Right, So on your day
39:12
to day routine, because I know you said it's you started out seeing people's
39:16
auras. Do you automatically see somebody's every time you have like kind of an
39:22
interaction with them or is that something you turn on and turn off? Thankfully
39:25
I can turn it on and off. When it started happening, it was,
39:30
it was not so easy. Um, same with spirit communication. When
39:34
I was younger. I was on like prescribed sleeping pills at eight years old
39:37
because I just kept lying in bed seeing all these shadows standing standing around me
39:43
every night, terrifying as a little it was, it was, you know
39:50
what it really was, And and over time, I think part of me
39:53
just got you know, sort of like desensitized to it, because at any
39:58
given day I could look out the window and see you know, shadowy things
40:00
walking around or whatever. But but it's something that you know, you learn
40:06
to adjust to. And what I can do is turn on and off of
40:09
the messaging system. So even though I may still be aware of energy or
40:14
still sometimes feel things when I'm not trying to, I can at least turn
40:17
off the communication side of it. And so my head has become a lot
40:22
quieter as I've gotten older, I'm sure. I mean, if that all
40:28
that is coming at you all the time and you don't have a filter to
40:31
filter it out, that has to be very overwhelmed. Especially it was.
40:37
Oh, I was on heavy meds as a kid and teenager and even into
40:43
my twenties. And you know, I also have like sensory physical world earth
40:47
blane sensory sensitivity, and so when you mix all of that together, I
40:52
mean, my my occupational therapist that I work with twice a week is always
40:57
like factoring in the psychic side of it, because you know, I have
41:00
like light and sound and smell sensitivities and so, but she's also like,
41:05
but you're also feeling everything vibe vibes wise, so we need to factor that
41:08
into your therapy, which, as a side note, I think has been
41:13
a huge challenge for her because she's never worked with anybody quite like, you
41:16
know, with that kind of sensitivity before, so it's been a learning curve
41:22
for us both. I think that's interesting. So you work with an occupational
41:25
therapist twice always, I do, Yeah, twice. I wonder if a
41:30
lot of kids are feeling that right now and experiencing that, and we just
41:37
don't have the knowledge to say that's what's going on, you know, and
41:40
everybody's getting classified is ADHD or ADD or on the autism spectrum or you know,
41:46
whatever it is. Like, I wonder if this is all happening to
41:52
these kids, especially and they're not knowing how to process it, you know,
41:57
and it very well could be. I mean, if if you think
42:00
about the potential crossovers right like people, I mean, I can mostly speak
42:05
to people with a you know, different variations of ASD UM because I have
42:09
ASD one UM, and so there's a lot of crossover with sensory things and
42:15
um, you know, being extrasensitive to to their people's environments and having reactions
42:22
to other people or places without really knowing why um. And I can speak,
42:28
you know, only for myself, but I know that I've had reactions
42:31
to buildings or rooms or people and there's no physical reason for it. Like
42:37
they you know, they don't look sketch, they look totally nice and normal,
42:42
but I've still had that reaction. And and and I've seen kids who
42:45
are who are young with ASD who also will you know, walk up to
42:50
somebody or room and that person you know, doesn't appear to be threatening or
42:53
weird or overwhelming, but the response is still very overwhelming for that person.
42:59
So you know, it wouldn't surprise me at all. And one thing I
43:01
can say about all types of neural divergence, whether it's ADHD or ADD or
43:08
you know, autism or whatever, is that all of us are incredibly attuned
43:15
to subtlety and subtle things and energy and energy sensitivity is very subtle. So
43:22
I mean, I think I think it just kind of makes sense to me.
43:25
Yeah, it makes sense to meat you. My nephew is on the
43:29
spectrum and he's I don't ways say he's not verbal, because he's very verbal.
43:34
He just doesn't speak in like complete sentences, you know, like he'll
43:37
say a work here there, But he's verbal all the time. But my
43:40
sister and I are convinced that he sees spirits, convinced of it whether he's
43:46
seeing stuff. And a lot of times he doesn't sleep through the night,
43:50
and I think that that's why I think he's getting business at night. It
43:53
totally could be. I mean that's the way that I was when I was
43:57
a kid. I was seeing seeing in few things pretty much, you know,
44:00
everywhere and at night for some reason, I don't know what it is
44:04
about nighttime. It seems quiet, I think so very very much. So
44:13
I'm certain that's what it is as well. UM, but yeah, you
44:15
know, and and depending on his age. One thing I've also noticed in
44:20
the last this last you know generation that's you know coming up now of kids
44:25
is they're like born switched on. I mean there's more psychic kids and medium
44:30
medium mystic kids right now. UM that are you know, like let's say
44:35
twelve and under, um than I have ever seen. UM. And years
44:39
ago, I would get the odd call saying, you know, help me
44:43
my kid is haunted. Um. That has increased, I would say,
44:51
like tenfold in the last ten years. Um. It's it's it's insane and
44:57
cool. Oh my god, I can't imagine a pair calling to help me
45:00
my kid is haunted. All its terrible. It's terrifying so many and sometimes
45:08
like the kids were so cool that like they didn't care at all. It
45:12
was the parents who are freaking out, and other times it was the kids
45:15
who are freaking out. But yeah, it's it's one thing that I think
45:19
this you know recent like you know, children were born recently they just seem
45:25
to be more sensitive, and I think that's good. I think that's cool.
45:30
And it's also kind of an idea of what direction things are going in
45:34
terms of our world. If more and more kids are just born with it
45:37
switched on, then that's saying something about what the future holds for our world
45:42
being more energy sensitive as a whole. I think, yeah, that's true,
45:45
that's true. Yeah, I wish you could tell us what it is.
45:49
I mean, he doesn't seem to have night terrors or anything. It's
45:52
not like he wakes up screaming. He just doesn't sleep with the night and
45:53
he wants to go sleep with his parents, you know, so but exactly
45:58
like me, Yeah, I think he sees it. It's like, and
46:01
so, who'd you see? Who is that? You know? What do
46:04
you do? You know? Like? What are you doing? Like?
46:06
And he'll talk sometimes and he'll be looking somewhere that's not at us in his
46:10
own language, and I'm like, who's here? I know? Isn't that
46:16
cool? Though? But it sounds like it's not distressing for him, which
46:21
is good. That's a good thing. No, it's not distressing, but
46:23
I do think it wakes him up a lot. Yeah, definitely wakes him
46:27
up. That's so interesting about these kids. I never thought about it until
46:30
you just said it, about what the future of the world could look like
46:35
with all these these kids coming through that have this already turned on as soon
46:39
as they're Wow, it's just wild. Oh exactly, And I think I
46:45
think it's going to be really cool. I mean the other thing, like
46:47
we talked about earlier, empathic and energy sensitive people are ultimately incredibly compassionate,
46:54
which means that if this is the future, right, then we're going to
46:58
live in a world that is a lot more passionate and a lot more understanding,
47:01
which I think is super cool and awesome because we needed that about five
47:07
hundred years ago. Yeah exactly. I was gonna say, we definitely need
47:13
that. So you're you're optimistic about the future, I like to ask,
47:16
I am tapping and tuned in if they're optimistic about the future, Yeah,
47:22
you know what I actually am. Do I think it's going to get harder
47:25
before it gets better? Probably? Do. I think it will be a
47:29
roller coaster for humanity for a while. Absolutely, But I also think at
47:34
some point, hopefully in our lifetime, we'll see it that things shift for
47:38
you know, the the much much better. But if we even look throughout
47:42
history, you know, the amount of social change that came on the other
47:45
side of things like pandemics was huge, right, you know, if we
47:50
look at what happened, you know, yeah, in different periods of history
47:54
where there was global pandemics, like right after that, huge social change would
47:58
happen, always for the better. And so I think we're seeing that.
48:01
But the other thing, if history is anything like what's coming, is that
48:05
it's not overnight. You know, it takes time for people and beliefs and
48:10
thoughts to shift at a paradigm level. So yeah, I think this is
48:15
something that we will see, but I don't think it's overnight. And I
48:19
think that the tension that everybody's experiencing socially and politically and so on is a
48:24
huge part of that. If you can imagine, you know, almost like
48:28
an abscess that's growing and eventually will will burst. I think that's you know,
48:36
the pressure that everyone's aware of. Yeah, now I feel the same
48:40
way. I feel the same way, So that's good. So, um,
48:45
when you do your your one on ones, you see clients privately that
48:50
can book a session with you. Are you are you not doing that anymore,
48:53
so I'm actually not doing one on ones anymore, but I am doing
48:58
regular group sessions both online and in person UM and groups can either be private,
49:04
but I also am offering like public group sessions. So people basically buy
49:08
a ticket and it's a you know, eight people, so it's a very
49:13
small group. Everybody's guaranteed or reading or a message. But I also bring
49:15
in a colleague, UM, so I'll be doing a group reading and then
49:20
one of my colleagues will be either be doing mini readings for each person or
49:24
an energy healing mini energy healing session for each person. And so far people
49:29
have loved these sessions. Yeah, the feedback has been nothing but awesome.
49:35
And it's a nice night, you know, like it's it's it says it
49:38
goes for two hours, but it's gone for three plus hours every time.
49:44
But it's been awesome. Yeah, do you do your You used to do
49:49
something? I think it was Monday's right, didn't you used to do something
49:52
mondays? You're still doing that or are we not doing that? I am,
49:57
Yeah, I'm not doing it as a set time anymore, but I'm
50:00
still going on my Facebook page and doing free messages and readings every week,
50:05
but the time kind of varies. And what's cool is that I've actually kind
50:08
of been doing a little bit more often in the last week or two.
50:12
So if people want to see what, you know, what I do,
50:15
they can totally follow me on Facebook and they're definitely going to see me live
50:19
for sure. Yeah. Yeah. And I always feel like if you are
50:23
on and watching you and you get a message that none it was obviously you
50:29
were guided to be there and it was meant for you, right, I
50:30
mean, that's just totally brainer. Have I got stories about how people have
50:37
ended up in my lives? I'm sure, I'm sure. I'm sure You've
50:44
had some pretty incredible experiences and doing those and people have probably gotten some very
50:51
powerful messages listening to you. It's really really a blessing for me to be
50:57
able to do that for people. And yeah, like sometimes messages have been
51:00
claimed months later, like somebody will say, hey, I just randomly came
51:05
across this and message number two wasn't claimed in a video, but it's definitely
51:10
for me. And so I just think it's neat that the spirit world knows
51:14
that they're going to be able to get that message to that person. When
51:16
they actually need it, and that I think is very good example of how
51:22
we are all really looked after and watched over and helped constantly. That's fascinating.
51:30
So if you're doing your group readings, like what happens, Like you'll
51:36
get somebody, you'll say something in your head, you'll get like a picture
51:39
and you'll just say it out loud and like, so how does it work?
51:44
It really depends. Some groups, it's like more like I will bring
51:49
through you know, what's called survival evidence, so things about the person that's
51:54
passed, and then somebody will raise your hands saying that's for me, and
51:57
then I'll continue with the message. Other times groups, I'll just feel drawn
52:00
to people, so I'll go directly to somebody and and bring through information or
52:05
a message or whatever for them. Sometimes it is you know, loved ones
52:09
coming forward, and sometimes it is more life path stuff from their spirit guides,
52:15
and that part I don't really have any control over. But my intention
52:19
is always to bring through whatever will be helpful to that person for their life
52:22
paths. So yeah, it's it really depends in every group. What I
52:28
love about doing groups, because working with groups is my passion, is that
52:30
it forms like this little micro community for the night and where these strangers come
52:35
together and they're supporting each other through their healing journey and we you know,
52:39
we've got great conversations that happen afterwards, and it's just it's I don't know,
52:45
I just feel super blessed to get to be a part of it.
52:47
Yeah, no, it sounds great. I mean, yeah, that sounds
52:51
so interesting and it sounds like a lot of fun too, just meeting other
52:57
people that why am I in a group with you? You know why?
53:00
It's it's cool. You don't know who you're going to connect with and where
53:04
that could go from there, you know exactly. And there was something cool
53:07
that happened. It was either the last group reading or the one before it,
53:10
but almost everybody there was going through such similar things in their lives,
53:15
so they actually really could support each other. It was the coolest thing.
53:20
And again I put that on the genius of the spirit world in the universe,
53:23
knowing that hey, there's like these eight people they're all going through something
53:27
similar, so we're just gonna like stick them all in this room, you
53:30
know, this room for the night and and help them. And I just
53:34
think it's so cool. No, it is. I mean that's what they,
53:37
you know, say, the universe is always supporting you. Sometimes we
53:40
just don't realize it. When we're going through something difficult, we're cursing the
53:45
universe, you know, in the universe is like, Okay, you can
53:47
curse me all you want. You'll see, you'll see, right, We're
53:51
going to come out the other end of yeah better. Oh well, we
53:57
only have like a couple of minutes left. So is there anything that you
54:00
want to share that I didn't get to ask you with everybody listening, I
54:05
think just for people to know that they're not alone in what they're going through
54:08
and that there isn't a part of everyone's healing journey that does feel isolated.
54:15
You know, it's part of healing to go into that sort of hermit cave.
54:20
But just know that even if you're in that, or you're going through
54:22
the thick of a difficult journey, you are so unbelievably loved and supported and
54:29
guided. And I really believe the universe is into, you know, stepping
54:34
in to help anybody when they when they ask for it. But they also,
54:37
I think sometimes need to make room in their lives to be helped and
54:42
so being open to you know, the greater plan for you in your life
54:45
path is very important. And I think that's what I would really like to
54:51
leave people with, is just that they I hope they'll know that they're incredibly
54:53
loved and that they're not going through whatever they're going through by themselves. That
55:00
was perfect, And tell us again tomorrow night. Your course is called,
55:05
yeah, Mastering Empathy, how to survive and even thrive in a heavy as
55:10
an EmPATH in a heavy world. It's at seven pm Eastern time, fifty

55:24
