- 1:18>> Thinking Allowed
- 1:21Conversations on the leading edge of
- 1:23knowledge and discovery with
- 1:26psychologist Jeffrey Mishlove.
- 1:31>> [music]
- 1:34>> Hello and welcome. I'm Emmy Vadnais,
- 1:37co-host with Jeffrey Mishlove. Today is
- 1:40unusual because I will be interviewed by
- 1:43Deborah Lynne Katz, who is a guest host
- 1:45on New Thinking Allowed and author of
- 1:48You Are Psychic, The Art of Clairvoyant
- 1:50Reading and Healing. Today we'll be
- 1:53focusing on the topic of developing your
- 1:56intuition based on my experiences as an
- 2:00intuitive healer, coach, holistic health
- 2:03practitioner, and occupational
- 2:05therapist, and what I wrote about in my
- 2:07book, Intuitive Development: How to
- 2:10Trust Your Inner Knowing for Guidance
- 2:12with Relationships, Health, and
- 2:14Spirituality.
- 2:16We hope you enjoy this conversation as
- 2:18much as we do. Now, I'll switch over to
- 2:21the internet video.
- 2:24>> Hi, Amy.
- 2:26How are you doing today?
- 2:28>> I am fantastic, and I'm so happy to be
- 2:31with you, Debra. Thank you for inviting
- 2:33me to have this conversation today.
- 2:35>> Yeah, I know we both interview so many
- 2:39experts in this field, and they have so
- 2:43much knowledge and wisdom, but then
- 2:46they're not always the one that are
- 2:48really in the trenches with clients
- 2:51doing this work throughout the week
- 2:53every week year after year
- 2:56in the way that you and I are as
- 2:59professional intuitives.
- 3:01And so, I thought it would be great to
- 3:03come together, and we could talk about
- 3:06some of the different psychic abilities
- 3:09and ways that intuition operates through
- 3:12the senses, and we could compare notes
- 3:15and experiences both
- 3:17within our client work, but also what
- 3:21we've experienced throughout our lives,
- 3:23and also maybe how provide more
- 3:26definitions or clarity with these
- 3:28different terms that we use in our
- 3:30intuitive work. And then, there's always
- 3:33challenges,
- 3:35the highs, the lows, the joys, the
- 3:37sorrows of doing this work. I thought we
- 3:39could talk about that, because I know
- 3:41there's a lot of people that watch and
- 3:43say like, "Hey, if I develop my
- 3:45abilities more, practice more, maybe I
- 3:48could move into the professional arena.
- 3:50So, what is that like? And then my third
- 3:54motivation for really wanting us to have
- 3:56this conversation is to compare notes
- 4:00with some mysterious phenomenon that has
- 4:04been happening that I've been noticing
- 4:06with clients that I can't always make
- 4:09total sense of. So, wanted to see if
- 4:11you're having some of these same
- 4:13experiences with clients or having
- 4:15people come to you with the same things.
- 4:18And some of these have to do with
- 4:20telepathy,
- 4:21clairaudience, and possibly the
- 4:24intersection between mental illness and
- 4:28and unusual exceptional experiences.
- 4:33So, I was thinking maybe we could start
- 4:37by finding out from you what do you find
- 4:41to be the one psychic ability that the
- 4:44general population exhibits most often
- 4:49or comes to you and says, "I have this
- 4:51going on."
- 4:53I I have a suspicion of what you might
- 4:55say, but I want to find out from you.
- 4:58>> I would say the general public
- 5:02I'm going to start with the general
- 5:03public and then maybe go to actually
- 5:04people who take time and schedule
- 5:06appointments with me.
- 5:09The general public
- 5:11often will say that they have an inner
- 5:13knowing or a gut feeling
- 5:16or that they receive some type of
- 5:18information in a dream,
- 5:21which I believe there's research that
- 5:22shows that a lot of
- 5:24times or one of the most frequent ways I
- 5:26think this is from James Jim McLennan's
- 5:29work that people receive information is
- 5:31through dreams, but in your everyday
- 5:34vernacular people going about their
- 5:36daily activities, it's usually a feeling
- 5:39that they have, like a gut feeling. Was
- 5:41that what you were going to
- 5:43think that I was going to say? I mean, I
- 5:45have more I can add to that, but that's
- 5:46probably would take the cake, I would
- 5:48say.
- 5:49>> Well, yeah, that that's a good one, and
- 5:51I always find that interesting because
- 5:53I'm like, are they really feeling it in
- 5:56their gut? Like, I don't feel things
- 5:59there. I feel things in other parts of
- 6:02my body, unless I'm about to encounter a
- 6:06stressful situation, then I'll feel it
- 6:08there. But, what do you think when
- 6:10people are using that term gut feeling?
- 6:13Are they really feeling it in their gut,
- 6:15or are they really talking about some
- 6:18other kind of feeling?
- 6:20>> I think some people really are feeling
- 6:22it there. There's more research going
- 6:25coming out now about how we actually
- 6:28have So, we'll talk about the gut being
- 6:30the second brain. Of course, there's the
- 6:32heart.
- 6:33And you're right, there's also a term
- 6:34called interoception, which basically
- 6:37covers the whole kitten caboodle of
- 6:39all the different sensory experiences we
- 6:41can have, in addition to what we
- 6:43consider the five {quote} normal senses.
- 6:47And so, that would also explain that we
- 6:49can get tingling up our spine, or that
- 6:51we can have a
- 6:52cold or a warm feeling, or a flash of
- 6:56some type of a bolt of lightning
- 6:58feeling, and those those kinds of
- 6:59experiences.
- 7:01And also, just to further answer your
- 7:03question,
- 7:05I think that inner sight or clairvoyance
- 7:08is probably the other one that's that's
- 7:10very popular for people, in addition to
- 7:14that knowing piece of
- 7:17what's
- 7:18come to be more of a popular term,
- 7:20empathic, being able to sense other
- 7:23people's feelings. And that can get
- 7:25murky as far as
- 7:27And this is where discernment is can be
- 7:29really important is
- 7:31discerning what is somebody's own
- 7:33thoughts and feelings versus somebody
- 7:35else's, and at the same time,
- 7:38we it seems that it's quite likely we're
- 7:40in a
- 7:42collective consciousness situation. So,
- 7:45you know, really we can blend with each
- 7:47other and uh
- 7:49and then it depends on as as far as how
- 7:53much information is seemingly coming
- 7:56through.
- 7:57There's many factors as in my opinion as
- 7:59to why that happens or doesn't happen.
- 8:02>> Yes, and actually the empath or empathic
- 8:06or clear sentient
- 8:09abilities, those seem to be the ones
- 8:11that people come to me the most about,
- 8:14like whether new students or I also talk
- 8:17about these things in in my book You Are
- 8:19a Psychic. So, I think people will read
- 8:22that and then share their experiences,
- 8:24but I do find with all the psychic
- 8:27abilities that they people say they
- 8:29already have is that clear sentient
- 8:32empathic sense. So, like if they're
- 8:36if they're feeling fine and they're
- 8:38standing next to someone who's really
- 8:40tired, they may all of the sudden feel
- 8:43tired. Or if they're feeling happy, but
- 8:48they're about to encounter someone who's
- 8:50angry, they might suddenly get this rush
- 8:53of anger and not understand why they're
- 8:56just suddenly exploding. And have you
- 9:00found that like within your own life? Do
- 9:02you have much of that going on?
- 9:06>> I do and I that's why I and probably not
- 9:10in like yourself, why I have taken
- 9:13over 20
- 9:15years, 25 years of my life to really
- 9:18deeply
- 9:20experientially
- 9:21study, practice this. And of course,
- 9:24then at a certain point, I wanted to
- 9:27share it with others cuz I I found how
- 9:28it helped in my life and wanted to
- 9:30support others. So, I
- 9:32began teaching about 20 years ago. And
- 9:36yes, it was
- 9:39I had some precognitive dreams about a
- 9:43one of my brother's wives being
- 9:45pregnant, and I knew the child, I knew
- 9:48what they looked like, I knew their
- 9:49personality,
- 9:51their sex, and I was consistent three
- 9:54out of three with those children.
- 9:56And actually another brother just had a
- 9:58child, and I also had and that's that's
- 10:01not an uncommon experience I'd learned
- 10:02from our dear friend Jeffrey Mishlove,
- 10:04they're called announcing dreams, and
- 10:06that it's often or usually the mother,
- 10:09father, or parent, or maybe close family
- 10:11members such as myself in the situation,
- 10:14where the the soul will come to that
- 10:17individual in a in a dream. And uh so,
- 10:21when I met them, it was like I was just
- 10:23seeing them again, like it wasn't the
- 10:25first time seeing them. So, I had that
- 10:26experience, and it was just
- 10:29undoubtedly accurate for me. And
- 10:33of course, there's near-death
- 10:34experiences where
- 10:36people will
- 10:39touch, taste, go into varying levels of
- 10:42depth into the afterlife or the
- 10:44continuation of our consciousness, and
- 10:46then come back and report about it. And
- 10:48this what These were pre-birth
- 10:49experiences, which is different. And and
- 10:52so,
- 10:54or they're maybe the same on a similar
- 10:55continuum, right?
- 10:58And so, that really got my attention,
- 11:00and then I started having I think I just
- 11:01really opened up like in hindsight. I
- 11:03think I was going through
- 11:05an opening experience, or maybe some
- 11:08might call it some form of
- 11:10a spiritually transformative experience,
- 11:13and it seems to continue for me. It I
- 11:14don't I don't think it's I don't know
- 11:16that it's ever done for any of us, or
- 11:18maybe at some point, but
- 11:20it's continuing on, and so I was able to
- 11:22walk into a room, and I could sense what
- 11:24people were thinking, what they were how
- 11:26they were feeling.
- 11:28And quite frankly, it was overwhelming
- 11:29for me.
- 11:31And so, I wanted to learn how to not
- 11:35only develop that, but also to
- 11:38manage, for lack of better term,
- 11:40um I don't love the word control, but
- 11:42have it a little bit more under my
- 11:44volition
- 11:45of how I could
- 11:47utilize it. Like, well, why did I have
- 11:49those dreams that were spontaneous?
- 11:51Well, there's a deep soul connection
- 11:53with me and my nieces and nephew who
- 11:55came through, and now my new niece who
- 11:56was just born a few months ago.
- 11:59And so
- 12:01maybe people can have more of those
- 12:03experiences, or maybe it's there to
- 12:06connect us with recognizing that we're
- 12:08more than we generally take ourselves to
- 12:10be, which is I believe what it did in my
- 12:12case, and has really opened up a
- 12:14beautiful world to me, and has really
- 12:17helped me once I've cultivated that more
- 12:20with uh all sorts of practical ways in
- 12:23my life as well.
- 12:25>> Do you remember the first time where you
- 12:29had a sense that you were feeling
- 12:32something from someone else, and you got
- 12:36hardcore confirmation about that? Like
- 12:40registering in your own body, but it
- 12:42wasn't yours, it was more theirs.
- 12:45>> I imagine that it probably goes back to
- 12:47childhood, and
- 12:50for me to be cog- cognizant and you're
- 12:53cognitively aware of it occurring, it
- 12:55yeah, it was probably around that time.
- 12:59But when I look back on my life, it's
- 13:01been happening throughout my life, and
- 13:04I think it probably goes back to
- 13:07the bond with my parents, and being able
- 13:09to sense
- 13:11how they were feeling, and so forth. Of
- 13:13course, there's body language and
- 13:14people's facial expressions and all of
- 13:17that, which can give us clues, which
- 13:20which I don't know about you, but I
- 13:21think is also can be very important and
- 13:23relevant for getting information to make
- 13:26decisions, to
- 13:29experience, understand our world and how
- 13:31we interact with it. So, I don't I think
- 13:33that those are can also be helpful.
- 13:36Yeah, so I would say it's probably been
- 13:38with me, but something really did open
- 13:40around that time and and actually at
- 13:41that moment in my life I was
- 13:44freshly out of college and in my early
- 13:4720s and I think it was me, my soul
- 13:50saying, "Hey,
- 13:51or probably that maybe the invisible
- 13:53spirits and helpers saying, "Hey, I
- 13:55mean, there's this other world. Go
- 13:57explore it." And I did and I have and I
- 13:59continue to and I'm so grateful for it.
- 14:02>> I would say that I had a lot of early
- 14:06childhood experiences cuz I have a an
- 14:09identical twin sister and so we were
- 14:12constantly
- 14:14just finishing each other's sentences
- 14:16and it really got to the point where I
- 14:19almost felt like I couldn't speak fast
- 14:22enough because she was going to say
- 14:25whatever I was about to say. And I
- 14:28couldn't tell at that age was had she
- 14:31thought of it first and then I thought
- 14:33of it or vice versa. But then I got some
- 14:36really concrete
- 14:39evidence when I was probably in my early
- 14:4220s. Like I had an experience where I
- 14:44was walking down the street with a
- 14:46boyfriend and we were having really nice
- 14:49walk. Everything was fine and suddenly I
- 14:52got these waves of anxiety moving
- 14:54through my body and I somehow knew like
- 14:59something I was about to encounter
- 15:01something. Like I just knew it. And we
- 15:04turned the block and sure enough, there
- 15:07was a house on fire and the family who
- 15:10lived there was all standing outside the
- 15:13house watching it burn down, you know,
- 15:16crying hysterically.
- 15:18And so it was things like that like
- 15:21where, you know, I'd call that a pretty
- 15:22hardcore confirmation.
- 15:26Where I was like, "Wow, I just felt this
- 15:27anxiety." Or a lot of times like my
- 15:30sister who does naturally have higher
- 15:33anxiety than I do, I don't typically
- 15:35experience my own anxiety, but right
- 15:39before she would call, I would have that
- 15:41wave of anxiety. And I And to the point
- 15:44where I was like, "Oh, she's going to
- 15:46call." And then sure enough she did. So,
- 15:50after I started to develop my psychic
- 15:52abilities even more, I went to a school
- 15:55like in the 1990s to learn how to just
- 15:59understand all of this.
- 16:01One thing they didn't say was going to
- 16:02happen which really started to was it
- 16:05was like my whole body became this
- 16:07sensing system. And I was a federal
- 16:09probation officer at the time. And I
- 16:12would be sitting in my office just
- 16:15working on a report and suddenly like I
- 16:17would feel this sensation in my heart.
- 16:20It would be almost like
- 16:22um I don't I don't know what what you'd
- 16:24call it like kind of
- 16:26I'd call it lit up, but there was just
- 16:28like this pressure or sensation. And I
- 16:31might like suddenly feel like really
- 16:34angry. And then the next thing I knew a
- 16:37really angry person would walk in. Or I
- 16:40would feel
- 16:42really sad and then I would turn the
- 16:44corner and someone would be bawling in
- 16:47the hallway that I was going to now have
- 16:50to encounter. And even like when I drove
- 16:54I was driving one day and I felt all
- 16:57this static-y stuff above my head and I
- 17:00was like, "Oh my god, what the heck is
- 17:01that?" And it almost kind of felt like
- 17:03surveillance. And so I was like, "What
- 17:05is going on here?" And sure enough I got
- 17:09stopped by the police. So, pretty much
- 17:12like whenever I'm like either, you know,
- 17:14on the police radar, I'll feel it on top
- 17:17of my head. So, I I I've kind of been
- 17:21obsessed with this topic ever since.
- 17:23Because it just makes me think, if if
- 17:26I'm having those experiences, but I
- 17:28started to realize like this is a
- 17:30psychic thing, what about all the people
- 17:33out there who are experiencing other
- 17:36people's body sensations and emotions,
- 17:38but they think it's all them? Have you
- 17:42What What do you think about that?
- 17:44>> I completely agree with you, and just
- 17:46was when you were speaking, and maybe
- 17:48it's because our
- 17:49seemingly separate consciousness
- 17:52abilities our consciousnesses are
- 17:55merging, I was just thinking about how
- 17:58I think everybody is doing this all the
- 18:00time, but they're just not maybe as
- 18:02aware, or there's like maybe a continuum
- 18:04or a spectrum of awareness.
- 18:07And when you were talking about some of
- 18:08your experiences, because I've
- 18:11provided so much patient care and
- 18:14individual client sessions for
- 18:17decades now, that
- 18:20that I often will feel the client, or
- 18:23sometimes receive
- 18:25messages or information before I even
- 18:27have the session with them. And it's
- 18:31something that I've learned to listen
- 18:34to, because you're right, sometimes I
- 18:35will feel like like extreme few times or
- 18:38several times I felt extreme fatigue
- 18:39before
- 18:40meeting with a client, and then they
- 18:42come in and they just tell me how tired
- 18:43they are, and I'm and I'm thinking, oh.
- 18:45I mean, it could be me, but it also, you
- 18:48know, that's where that discernment
- 18:49comes in.
- 18:50Or could be a mix. But that really
- 18:52helped me to have a real lived
- 18:54experience of what's happening for them.
- 18:57And yes, I think you're you're right,
- 19:00that whole piece of
- 19:02discerning what's mine and what is
- 19:04somebody else's, and then also
- 19:07the next step can be, what am I to do
- 19:09with this information, if anything?
- 19:12Which as practitioners, it can inform us
- 19:14and help us and really, it doesn't have
- 19:16to be
- 19:18just somebody who works in these
- 19:19psychic, intuitive,
- 19:22spiritual, consciousness fields. It can
- 19:25be
- 19:26the florist. It can be
- 19:28anybody, a business person,
- 19:31even somebody who maybe isn't currently
- 19:33working and they maybe to our
- 19:35grandparent that that we can receive
- 19:38this information that can inform us. And
- 19:41I really think that it shows the
- 19:43interconnection that we all have. And as
- 19:45I go on in my life,
- 19:49I feel that there's a lot of course
- 19:51there's turmoil in the world, but
- 19:53there's a lot of beauty and love that we
- 19:55can all connect with and that this is
- 19:58these are indications and sometimes it's
- 20:01so subtle that
- 20:03we overthink or strive too hard to
- 20:06recognize the information is there. Just
- 20:10trust it. And that's that's the biggest
- 20:12piece I think that I've come for myself
- 20:15developing this or
- 20:17honing this or getting
- 20:19more refined with these abilities is to
- 20:22to trust it and and then more
- 20:24information or more awareness will come
- 20:27to us.
- 20:29>> Yeah, and something you said, it's like
- 20:31knowing yourself, knowing your baseline,
- 20:35and being very aware of it, then that
- 20:37makes it easier to tell when something's
- 20:40changed and you might be picking up on
- 20:42something else. If you're already tired
- 20:45and you encounter someone else who's
- 20:47tired, you're you may not even know
- 20:50that. But if you're feeling fine one
- 20:52moment and you're aware of that and now
- 20:54suddenly you're so exhausted, you could
- 20:56barely stand up and you're about to
- 20:59encounter someone. Or I I had that years
- 21:03ago when I was in a workshop. It was
- 21:06actually a workshop on crop circles at
- 21:09like the Conscious Life Expo and I was
- 21:12sitting there and I was feeling fine and
- 21:15suddenly I felt so exhausted I thought I
- 21:17was going to pass out and I looked next
- 21:21to me and there was a guy standing there
- 21:23and I was like, "Oh, that's weird. I
- 21:25wonder if this could be him." And
- 21:27everyone else was sitting down, but he
- 21:30was standing up. So, I was like, "You
- 21:32know, I'm just going to move across the
- 21:34room and um uh maybe I'll feel better."
- 21:37And I was fine for a while and then
- 21:39about 30 minutes later I got that same
- 21:42feeling again. So, I'm thinking to
- 21:44myself, "Oh, I must have been wrong.
- 21:45Like maybe there really is something
- 21:47wrong with me." But then I looked up and
- 21:50the guy was standing behind me, but like
- 21:53really close again, the same guy. So, um
- 21:56and I've had it too where I was supposed
- 21:58to meet with a client in this one
- 22:00instance. He had just we had just
- 22:04emailed each other like 10 minutes
- 22:06before and so I expected him to be on
- 22:08time, but he wasn't and when it he
- 22:12didn't show up and so I was like, "What
- 22:14what could have happened to him?" And
- 22:16that's when the tiredness hit me like
- 22:18the total exhaustion to the point where
- 22:20I really thought I was going to pass
- 22:22out.
- 22:23And then I was like, "Oh, I bet he fell
- 22:26asleep. Like that's why I'm feeling this
- 22:28way." And then sure enough he called a
- 22:31few minutes later and was like, "Sorry,
- 22:33I fell asleep." So, uh one thing though
- 22:36that I was wondering if you found this.
- 22:38Like do you find that when you even ask
- 22:41the question like what's going on with
- 22:43me? Like is this mine or someone else's?
- 22:46That that will kind of break the spell
- 22:49and it may be like where you don't feel
- 22:51it anymore. Like sometimes either just
- 22:53asking that question or discovering what
- 22:56the source is. Like now it's just over
- 22:59with.
- 23:00>> That was something that was taught to me
- 23:02by my spiritual intuitive teacher and I
- 23:04found it incredibly helpful because it
- 23:06gives me the opportunity to recognize
- 23:10essentially because all of us are living
- 23:12our days with certain needs, wants,
- 23:15desires.
- 23:17What am I going to have for breakfast?
- 23:19Am I going to take a bath or a shower?
- 23:21Am what am what am I going to
- 23:23What is my schedule in my day? And so
- 23:26we're
- 23:28I think
- 23:30making a lot of decisions in the day.
- 23:33Whether we take action on something or
- 23:34not.
- 23:35So that was taught to me and I and I now
- 23:37teach it as well to my students as an
- 23:40opportunity to get more clarity on why
- 23:44am I sensing this? Why am I feeling
- 23:47this?
- 23:48If if it is something that's getting
- 23:50your attention. If it is like oh I've
- 23:51had a full day and I'm tired, you know,
- 23:53that's that's quite normal and natural.
- 23:56But like in your experience if all of a
- 23:58sudden that happens or if you feel
- 24:00something that's maybe
- 24:02uncharacteristic for that your typical
- 24:05mood
- 24:07is that I think that by
- 24:10having a little inquiry we can get more
- 24:12information and decide what we want to
- 24:15do with that or not.
- 24:18Now
- 24:19that was part of a training that I was
- 24:21in and part of a training I provide and
- 24:23so
- 24:24when I was training and when I work with
- 24:27people who are developing this, we're
- 24:29also doing other practices such as
- 24:32meditation or quieting the mind. And
- 24:36it's possible that that might
- 24:39distract somebody by doing that, but for
- 24:41me
- 24:43I have found it helpful and the people
- 24:44I've trained have said that they found
- 24:45it helpful.
- 24:47And particularly because
- 24:49we can also
- 24:52in meditation
- 24:54be visited by
- 24:57different experiences and images or
- 25:01past loved ones or beings and again
- 25:03that's an opportunity for us to be in
- 25:05that world and navigate it. That's
- 25:08probably a great word is to navigate.
- 25:10What am I doing with these experiences?
- 25:12Why am I having them?
- 25:15Do I Do I just need to like change the
- 25:16channel and go do something else or is
- 25:18there something here that I need to pay
- 25:20attention to?
- 25:21>> Meditation is it's so much quietening
- 25:25all the noise that you can now pick up
- 25:28on the subtle signals that weren't there
- 25:30before and I think that that may be what
- 25:33happened with me because at the time
- 25:36this was really happening in a major
- 25:38way. I had started meditating. I had
- 25:43meditated since I was really young, but
- 25:45I had never found a practice that really
- 25:47worked for me until I found one that was
- 25:51very active like with visualizations and
- 25:53running energy and paying attention to
- 25:55energy running through your body and I
- 25:57was doing this meditation one to two
- 25:59hours a day every single day and and so
- 26:04yeah, I think that that
- 26:06it just makes you so much quieter in
- 26:09your mind and in your whole space then
- 26:12you can be sensitive to all of this
- 26:15stuff going on and it may be too that
- 26:17when you start to put your attention on
- 26:20your energy body, you know, I when I was
- 26:23growing up, you know, in school they're
- 26:25not talking about an energy body. I had
- 26:27no idea what that was, but when you even
- 26:30and I can't say that, you know, I I
- 26:33totally understand it all now except
- 26:35that there is something here, you know,
- 26:38I call like the the metaphysical. It's
- 26:42It's our physical bodies, but there's
- 26:43something else happening in our physical
- 26:45bodies and and that's the what we start
- 26:49to become aware of when we're having
- 26:52these
- 26:53experiences with other people.
- 26:56>> I think that energy is a really great
- 26:58way
- 27:00at least for me
- 27:02to understand what we're talking about.
- 27:04So, when I started developing or
- 27:06understanding these abilities more, I
- 27:08actually did a training in medical
- 27:10Qigong where I learned how to work with
- 27:13the
- 27:14the aura, the heaven-earth energy, the
- 27:17aura, the meridians, and also I then
- 27:21developed an understood an understanding
- 27:23of the chakras. The There's debate on
- 27:26how many chakras there are and
- 27:29typically there are considered to be
- 27:31seven main ones, but there's different
- 27:32systems that say 9, 11, and of course
- 27:34when you get into the meridians of
- 27:35acupuncture, there's many vortices all
- 27:39all around the the human within and
- 27:41around the human, what we consider the
- 27:43the body.
- 27:44Just going back to our levels of
- 27:47awareness that we can see that through
- 27:49the energy centers, the chakras, which
- 27:52is sometimes translated as spinning
- 27:55wheel of light, and that that can be an
- 27:57understanding of our own level of
- 28:00consciousness, our level of awareness
- 28:02from
- 28:03the first chakra of being in a physical
- 28:07what we perceive as a physical body all
- 28:09the way up to the seventh of the
- 28:11of the more spiritual and connected to
- 28:13the all or the oneness, and that there's
- 28:15a a continuum or a spectrum
- 28:18of awareness
- 28:21that has really informed me when I'm for
- 28:24my own self personally, working with my
- 28:25own energy and consciousness, and
- 28:28personal development and so forth, and
- 28:30also when I'm assisting others as to how
- 28:35much those energy centers are
- 28:37functioning well, how open or closed
- 28:40they might be, which is also one could
- 28:42also
- 28:43suggest that that's metaphoric, but it
- 28:45is a
- 28:47it is a way of of
- 28:51getting a sense of how
- 28:53much a person is literally in tune with
- 28:55themselves. And when I say in tune, I
- 28:57think about how the chakras also
- 28:59correlate to the musical scale.
- 29:02And so it's a a very beautiful system
- 29:06that can deepen our our understanding
- 29:08and awareness of what we're talking
- 29:09about.
- 29:11>> Can you talk more about that? That's so
- 29:13interesting that you correlate the
- 29:15chakras with the musical scale.
- 29:18>> When I was growing up in school, I was
- 29:21in choir and did theater and that and
- 29:24loved singing and dancing. And
- 29:27over the years of study, that was taught
- 29:30to me that the first chakra is basically
- 29:33related to
- 29:35I believe a C note and then it it goes
- 29:38up the scale to the seventh chakra. And
- 29:40so we can think of that in terms of
- 29:42frequency or vibration, which is how
- 29:45people talk about energy, which then it
- 29:48begs the question, what what really is
- 29:50energy? And also our states of
- 29:53consciousness can be correlated to those
- 29:56levels of frequency. Some have suggested
- 29:58that love is the highest frequency and
- 30:01that fear
- 30:02Some also say hate, but fear if you
- 30:04really look at hate, behind it is
- 30:06probably fear. Would be would be a
- 30:08lower. Although sometimes fear
- 30:12can protect us and serve a serve a
- 30:13purpose in our lives.
- 30:16>> That's so interesting. I have a good
- 30:18friend Gail Johnson who does a practice
- 30:20called chakra dance. And she'll have
- 30:24different music and
- 30:26that corresponds with each chakra. And
- 30:30the first chakra, the music always has a
- 30:32lot of drums to it and is
- 30:35a very feeling that really puts you in
- 30:37your body and you're kind of stomping
- 30:39around and you know, you just feel
- 30:41really heavy. And by the time you get up
- 30:43to the crown chakra, you're it's the
- 30:46music is all bells and
- 30:50chimes and things like that and it just
- 30:53seems so natural. You know, probably if
- 30:56you asked anyone even if they're not too
- 30:59familiar with all of this like, oh,
- 31:01should the first chakra be
- 31:04bells or drums or the seventh
- 31:07probably respond in the same way. So,
- 31:09there is this
- 31:10lifting up and then the upper chakras.
- 31:13Do Do you find that when you're doing
- 31:16readings that you do go to the upper
- 31:18chakras?
- 31:21>> Yeah, I'll be happy to answer that that
- 31:23question. I also just want to add that
- 31:25another way to look at the chakras is a
- 31:27spectrum of light with the first chakra
- 31:30being the color red and then moving up
- 31:33red, orange, yellow,
- 31:35green, [clears throat] blue, indigo,
- 31:36violet which really does correlate with
- 31:39us being beings of light which
- 31:43seems just quite probable. I've read in
- 31:45something that we have both times in us.
- 31:49If I'm doing a form of like energy
- 31:50healing or just intuitively checking in
- 31:52with a person I typically will assess
- 31:55how well their
- 31:57earth energy which is really the yin
- 32:00of the yin yang because I was taught
- 32:02this is a Daoist and and Qigong and this
- 32:05is also seems to be true in many other
- 32:07wisdom traditions and mystery girl
- 32:09traditions that we have we have the one
- 32:13and then it goes to the two and then we
- 32:15have the yin and the yang and the yin
- 32:17being the feminine principle which can
- 32:20be gender but really more about
- 32:22qualities of like night and inward and
- 32:25soft receptive and then yang of course
- 32:27being outward active action oriented
- 32:30male and so forth.
- 32:33And I'd like to assess how
- 32:35that's functioning for a person. So,
- 32:37when I did my Qigong training, part of
- 32:39how my intuitive confidence, if you
- 32:42will, grew
- 32:43is because we were taught how to assess
- 32:46the heaven earth, how to assess the
- 32:48energetic meridians, which are the same
- 32:50pathways of acupuncture,
- 32:53but we did not use needles, we did not
- 32:54use we did not use physical touch. It
- 32:56was all
- 32:58sensing with our hands, our our body,
- 33:00our being is an instrument, our mind
- 33:02consciousness, our our heads to hearts
- 33:05and and um
- 33:08hands, heads, hearts, minds, all that
- 33:09good stuff.
- 33:11And
- 33:13we would people would fill out an intake
- 33:15form and sometimes they would forget to
- 33:17put information on there and I would
- 33:19pick up on it and I would say, "Oh, I'm
- 33:20sensing this in the kidney meridian that
- 33:22relates to this emotion and
- 33:24she was talking about fear, about water
- 33:26balance and so forth. And then somebody
- 33:28might say, "Oh, yeah, actually I've I
- 33:30have a history of kidney stones." And
- 33:33And so, over time it was just uncanny
- 33:37and highly accurate how I was able to
- 33:40receive that information. Now, again, I
- 33:42don't think that I'm special in this
- 33:44regard. I think that anybody who's
- 33:46interested could really train and
- 33:48develop this. I just happen to be a
- 33:50person like yourself who's folded into
- 33:53my life path with serving others and
- 33:55career, if you will, but helping others.
- 33:58And so,
- 33:59so once I get a sense of how the heaven
- 34:01and earth is functioning, then I do move
- 34:03to the chakras typically. And then
- 34:06there's something called the
- 34:07constitution, which I learned from
- 34:09Qigong, which is also part of
- 34:11traditional Chinese medicine, that we're
- 34:13all born with certain, we can call it
- 34:15personality or temperament. And some
- 34:19people are just naturally going to be
- 34:21more of a go-getter in life and maybe
- 34:23somebody who can really rev people up
- 34:26and is the life of the party and some
- 34:27people are going to more quietly sit in
- 34:29the corner and they're just happy to sit
- 34:31and observe or maybe they'll skip that
- 34:33party and they'll meet you at the next,
- 34:35you know, maybe a couple parties down
- 34:36the road cuz they'd prefer just to to be
- 34:38at home.
- 34:40And then, of course, then I was trained
- 34:42also to help balance that. Then I moved
- 34:45to the the chakras and one little thing
- 34:48I want to share is that I I was trained
- 34:50how to do this all systematically. So, I
- 34:52would do it like, you know, the steps
- 34:53one through just metaphorically one
- 34:56through 10.
- 34:58And then over time I've learned to go to
- 35:02where the greatest need is with the
- 35:03person. Like obviously listening to what
- 35:05they put on their intake, what we talk
- 35:08about when we first have a conversation
- 35:10about what they're hoping to achieve.
- 35:13And
- 35:14and then I've learned to really listen
- 35:16and how we were talking earlier, like I
- 35:18listen for telepathic messages.
- 35:21I
- 35:22When I first started doing this, I would
- 35:24mostly get more of those
- 35:27you mentioned the word clair sentience,
- 35:28which is also I would say probably
- 35:29synonymous with interoception. I would
- 35:31get feelings like hot, cold. And then
- 35:33over time I would start
- 35:36feeling more of the emotional piece when
- 35:38I was working with the person and I
- 35:39could get more of that direct
- 35:41correlation. Then I started seeing
- 35:43images and so forth and so more of my
- 35:45senses came online. So, when I'm first
- 35:48starting to work with a person
- 35:51my question is where do I need to go?
- 35:54What do you need? Tell me what you need.
- 35:56So, then I might go right to their heart
- 35:59chakra. Maybe they just went through a
- 36:01hard breakup or maybe they lost a loved
- 36:03one and they're really going through a
- 36:04lot of grief. Or maybe they don't
- 36:07realize it but they have unresolved
- 36:08grief and trauma from when they were a
- 36:10child that they haven't faced or they've
- 36:11been suppressing or repressing.
- 36:14Um but I just want to mention that
- 36:16because or you could I can you know, one
- 36:18can do this systematically but over the
- 36:21years I've learned to be more I one
- 36:22could say intuitive about it. And uh and
- 36:25then yes, I would go ahead and check
- 36:27each of the chakras and then there's
- 36:29different ways of working with those
- 36:31chakras. And for me personally,
- 36:34sometimes a person can just rest and
- 36:36receive and I'll just do my work. And
- 36:39other times, which is
- 36:41I would say more often than not, I'll
- 36:42dialogue with the person. I'll get their
- 36:44permission to make sure that I can
- 36:46communicate with them verbally when I'm
- 36:48doing this
- 36:49and letting them know what I'm seeing
- 36:51because I've come to find that
- 36:53consciousness is very It's absolutely
- 36:56fundamental and paramount for a person's
- 36:58health and well-being. And
- 37:02and I I want to be able to
- 37:05have them be involved in the process.
- 37:07So, it isn't just me
- 37:09doing to them. Now, I know that some
- 37:11psychic intuitives will just share
- 37:13information, but when we're talking
- 37:14about the chakras,
- 37:17my training was to also help balance and
- 37:19align those as well.
- 37:21>> I started off with a focus with
- 37:23clairvoyance.
- 37:25Um because I went through a clairvoyant
- 37:27program and we learned how to use simple
- 37:30visuals to get started with a person.
- 37:32So, like we would use a flower where you
- 37:36just visualize the flower, drop the
- 37:38person's name in the flower, have them
- 37:40say their name and imagine their energy
- 37:42is going into it, and then the flower
- 37:45will start to change. It might grow. It
- 37:47might tree. A petal might fall off.
- 37:51And actually, I recently read that
- 37:53that Mary Sin Clair, who was the wife of
- 37:56Upton Sinclair, who wrote mental radio,
- 37:59she actually used a similar technique,
- 38:01which I didn't know about. That was like
- 38:03in the 1940s. But this the school I went
- 38:06to was originally founded by Louis
- 38:08Bostwick, who taught taught this. So, we
- 38:12would look at the flower and see how it
- 38:13was transforming.
- 38:15And then after a little bit, then scenes
- 38:18from that person's life would start to
- 38:20pop up. Or, you know, there it might be
- 38:23like cartoon or it might be more
- 38:25realistic, but then we also would
- 38:27visualize the person and their field
- 38:30around them and
- 38:32you know, what this is probably similar
- 38:35to you, like when you're looking at an
- 38:36aura, it's not that you're seeing it
- 38:39with your physical eyes most of the
- 38:41time, right? It's just kind of like
- 38:43you're using your imagination to say
- 38:46like, oh, like if I had saw the aura,
- 38:48what would it look like? Or maybe you're
- 38:50just kind of visualizing them and then
- 38:53you'll see, oh, it looks wider on the
- 38:56right and it looks kind of green on top
- 38:58or I can see this side, but I can't see
- 39:01this side and now I'm feeling their
- 39:04heart center and when I look at their
- 39:05heart chakra, I'm seeing either like a
- 39:08dark color or maybe even like like this
- 39:10happened recently with a client where
- 39:12one side of their heart looked really
- 39:15big and strong and the other side looked
- 39:17weak. So, it's like just getting those
- 39:19initial impressions all over the place
- 39:23and then when you hone in on it, other
- 39:26things start to happen, like more and
- 39:27more information comes up. And it was
- 39:30similar with what you're describing
- 39:32where my the school I attended would
- 39:35have this whole procedure that you
- 39:37always had to follow, a structure, but
- 39:40the more you just do it on your own, you
- 39:42just kind of go with whatever is coming
- 39:45up. And then there's always the question
- 39:47like at the start of a session, do I
- 39:50just want to not have the client say
- 39:52anything and just go in totally, like,
- 39:55let me just see what shows up? Or do I
- 39:57want to have a conversation with the
- 39:59client first and see what their
- 40:01questions interests are and I I'd say
- 40:04like half the time clients just want me
- 40:06to just go in and see what shows up and
- 40:08then later at some point I'll stop and
- 40:11say, okay, is this making sense to you?
- 40:13Do you want me to keep going like this
- 40:15or do you want to start to direct me?
- 40:18So, it sounds like pretty similar with
- 40:21with how you're working where sometimes
- 40:23you're a little more structured,
- 40:25sometimes you may start off not knowing
- 40:27much of anything with the client, and
- 40:29other times you're you may already have
- 40:32background on them. Would you say that's
- 40:35pretty similar?
- 40:37>> I just want to mention that when I'm
- 40:39when I'm doing my intuitive work, it's a
- 40:41I would say it's quite a meditative
- 40:43process, so I usually have my eyes
- 40:44closed, and I'm would imagine that might
- 40:47be the same for you.
- 40:49Yes, I would say that's quite similar. I
- 40:51typically do ask people to complete an
- 40:53intake just because then it helps me
- 40:56it's probably from my health care
- 40:57background and also just to get clear on
- 41:02so that I know that they are focused on
- 41:04what they want and that that helps me
- 41:06get clear. I have over the years
- 41:08there's a few times actually when I
- 41:10worked at the hospital, I was an
- 41:11integrated medicine practitioner at
- 41:13Abbott Northwestern Hospital here in
- 41:15Minneapolis for a couple years, and I
- 41:18worked inpatient and outpatient
- 41:19providing energy healing and guiding
- 41:22people in meditation, massage, and so
- 41:24forth. And I'm certified in reflexology
- 41:28and also a nationally board certified in
- 41:30massage and body work, and so I was
- 41:33providing reflexology there as well.
- 41:35This woman came in and she wanted me to
- 41:37without knowing anything about her
- 41:40health background, she wanted me to read
- 41:43her feet and also just get give any
- 41:46intuitive impressions I had for her. And
- 41:48I just said, "Well, just so you know,
- 41:50this isn't diagnosing." which of course
- 41:51I say all the time because I'm not a
- 41:53medical doctor.
- 41:55However, I can provide information that
- 41:57people can utilize or because I am
- 42:01a licensed occupational therapist, I
- 42:03have a pretty good sense of if somebody
- 42:05needs a referral or to make sure that
- 42:07their, you know, primary's involved in
- 42:09in all of that.
- 42:11Anyway, she was totally cool with it and
- 42:14it was highly accurate and and it
- 42:15usually is and that's why I'm doing this
- 42:17and I would imagine you are too. And and
- 42:20I say that only because I wouldn't
- 42:21continue doing this and I wouldn't
- 42:23continue trying to support people in
- 42:25these ways
- 42:27if it hadn't blown my mind and and if it
- 42:29didn't continue to blow my mind over and
- 42:31over and over again. I mean, it really
- 42:33is very profound and beautiful.
- 42:36And
- 42:37when I shared the information with her,
- 42:39she said, "Yes, that's accurate. Yes,
- 42:40that's accurate. Yes, that's accurate."
- 42:43There have been times where people
- 42:44haven't given me information. And
- 42:46sometimes people will say, "I'm not
- 42:47really sure what I need, but I but I'm
- 42:49guided or my intuition tells me that you
- 42:51can help me." And so then I will just
- 42:54follow from that and and see what comes
- 42:56up.
- 42:58>> Yeah.
- 42:59Well, and do you ever find that people
- 43:01come to you and they're really wanting
- 43:04to test you first before either they'll
- 43:08trust you, maybe the whole reason
- 43:10they're coming is to trust you or
- 43:12or to test you and that's it. They don't
- 43:15really want to know that much about
- 43:16themselves or that they want to have
- 43:21proof first before they'll open up
- 43:24enough so you could then look at the
- 43:25rest of them. Have you encountered that
- 43:28very much?
- 43:30>> I haven't encountered it a lot and
- 43:31here's why I think because I have a
- 43:33pretty
- 43:36clear mission that I want to support
- 43:39people who really want to be helped and
- 43:41that there's
- 43:44for their own
- 43:46personal soul development, heart
- 43:48opening.
- 43:50The more I go on in life, I really think
- 43:51that more and more it seems to show it
- 43:54to me that
- 43:56growing and expanding in love and
- 43:58compassion, I think is
- 44:02quite possibly the most important reason
- 44:04we're all here.
- 44:06And so
- 44:07that's a big part of my mission is
- 44:09helping people to improve their lives,
- 44:13however that is, but also to have expand
- 44:17in their own hearts. Not only their
- 44:19minds and consciousness, but I think
- 44:20that the heart being involved with that
- 44:23is is really important. So actually I
- 44:25had somebody just in the past year who I
- 44:28could tell they wanted to test me. I had
- 44:30a sense that was what they were doing
- 44:31and I was fine with it. I'm like, all
- 44:32right, I'm up for it. And then also
- 44:34quite frankly if I'm not a right match
- 44:36for somebody and the information isn't
- 44:38going to come through, I'll just say,
- 44:40which hasn't happened, but if it does
- 44:41happen, then I will
- 44:43say, you know
- 44:46we don't need to have any exchange of
- 44:47energy with money and there might be
- 44:50somebody better who can serve you, but I
- 44:51haven't had that happen.
- 44:53And this person didn't want to really
- 44:56tell me anything about what was going
- 44:58on. Didn't tell me anything. And I was
- 45:00able to share that they were having
- 45:02conflict with a family member and that
- 45:04it involved another person
- 45:07and I was able to provide information
- 45:09that assisted
- 45:11this person who came to see me on how to
- 45:15interact with their loved one in a way
- 45:18that was
- 45:19caring, kind, compassionate
- 45:23and we you know it was more detail to
- 45:24that and so that they could
- 45:27have that
- 45:28dynamic in the relationship shift so
- 45:31that the other person involved
- 45:33things would kind of shake out so that
- 45:35their relationship could everybody's
- 45:36relationships could improve. And they
- 45:39didn't tell me anything and I and I was
- 45:40able to pick that up and then the person
- 45:43told me within I think a month how they
- 45:46told me that there was accurate during
- 45:48the session, but within a month they
- 45:49said how they
- 45:51it felt right for them to take the
- 45:52advice, which I always tell people, you
- 45:54know, use your intuition on what I share
- 45:56with you. Use your own discernment and
- 45:58if it feels right. And she went ahead
- 46:01and did it and she said that that
- 46:02relationship with that family member had
- 46:04completely changed
- 46:06to the point where they were
- 46:09they were just much closer, and they
- 46:11were both more happy, loving, and kind
- 46:13with each other. And that's really what
- 46:14she wanted. And I'm sure for you, too,
- 46:17it's the it's a whole leap of faith, and
- 46:18I I learned many years ago
- 46:21my teacher would say, "Trust what you're
- 46:23getting. Don't doubt it. You know, doubt
- 46:25will block what you're receiving."
- 46:28And so, I really learned to just go with
- 46:30the information I'm receiving and trust
- 46:32it. And
- 46:34beautiful things usually occur from
- 46:37there.
- 46:39>> Do you find that when you're looking at
- 46:41energy, even if in that moment you're
- 46:44not, say, consciously, I'm going to heal
- 46:48this right now. Like, you're not trying
- 46:50to transform it or do anything right at
- 46:52that moment, but just while you're
- 46:55looking at, say, their aura or their
- 46:57chakras, that sometimes it'll just start
- 47:00to move as you're talking. And so, it
- 47:03can't help but be a healing when you get
- 47:06into actually looking at it for them.
- 47:10>> Yes, thank you for bringing that up. I
- 47:12think that that speaks to the
- 47:17I believe that science has shown this to
- 47:19be true, that when something is observed
- 47:22it
- 47:23it can change. It'll change. And so,
- 47:26I've noticed that with energy healing
- 47:29that
- 47:30once I actually even start assessing
- 47:32what's happening for an individual, that
- 47:36the frequency starts to shift. And I
- 47:37think that that's also part of the
- 47:40intention of the person who's coming to
- 47:42see me, and also my intention to assist
- 47:45them to the best of my capabilities.
- 47:47Sometimes I'm actually assessing and
- 47:49providing
- 47:50that healing or transformation
- 47:52simultaneously. It doesn't You cuz it
- 47:54When I was doing my training, it was
- 47:55like, "Well, you assess first, and then
- 47:56you go back, and and provide the
- 47:58healing. And so, you're I you're exactly
- 48:00right. That's very much happened with me
- 48:01as well.
- 48:03>> That was how we were trained, too. Like,
- 48:04do the healing later, but then I started
- 48:07to be like, wait a second. I know I just
- 48:09said like this was here, but now this is
- 48:11already changed. And then the person
- 48:14would be like, yeah, as you were sitting
- 48:15there, like I felt this pain like build,
- 48:18and then it seemed to like release out
- 48:20of my ear or down out of my feet. And um
- 48:24and that was also how I became aware,
- 48:26like this isn't just me making this up.
- 48:30Like, I would
- 48:31I would be looking at their heart
- 48:33chakra. And in some cases, I would be
- 48:35doing some healing, like if something
- 48:37looked like, oh, there's it looks like a
- 48:39knife in their, you know, energy with
- 48:41that's just like really causing them
- 48:43problems. And if I did start to work on
- 48:46it without telling them, like they would
- 48:49like one time this woman was like, oh my
- 48:51god, I don't know what you're doing, but
- 48:53it's like I can feel hands in my throat.
- 48:55And that's what I was visualizing, like
- 48:57my hands pulling stuff
- 49:00out of her throat. And so, it was
- 49:02confirmation like that that really
- 49:04helped. But,
- 49:06back to the topic of that you could just
- 49:09be looking at it, and there's
- 49:11transformation.
- 49:12I've started to notice a pattern that
- 49:16when the energy seems to move, like it
- 49:18changes really fast, that seems to
- 49:21correlate with how well-versed the
- 49:25person is in healing themselves. So,
- 49:29when I see that happening really fast,
- 49:31when I'm done, I'll say to the person,
- 49:33have you been involved in energy healing
- 49:35or something? And it almost never fails
- 49:39that they say yes. So, it's like energy
- 49:42healers already know how to move energy
- 49:45out faster than the average person. It's
- 49:48just like all of this is just kind of a
- 49:52familiarity.
- 49:54But yeah, you know, the
- 49:57we're also talking about like people
- 50:00trying to play test the psychic. I used
- 50:02to get that a lot more when I first
- 50:04started out and didn't charge people and
- 50:07I was working out of a bookstore in
- 50:09Sedona, Arizona and a lot of tourists
- 50:12would come in there and sometimes
- 50:15friends would come in and one friend
- 50:17would be, you know, really into this
- 50:19stuff and really wanting help in their
- 50:21life and then another one would just be
- 50:23like, okay, I'll try this, but they
- 50:25didn't really want to be looked at and I
- 50:28would get that a lot more and now that
- 50:32my prices are up, I don't have that so
- 50:34much. But
- 50:36you know, I have found that sometimes
- 50:39that challenge helps. Like I had one
- 50:42woman who said to me,
- 50:46"Tell me what my boyfriend does for a
- 50:48living." And at first I was confused. I
- 50:50was like, wait, you don't know what your
- 50:52boyfriend does for a living? And then I
- 50:53realized like, oh, she wants me to see
- 50:56it and I almost said to her,
- 51:00"I'm I'm not feeling like playing test
- 51:02the psychic." But I was like, you know
- 51:03what? This is a way for me to see if I
- 51:06can do it and I got really nervous,
- 51:09but I just sat there, I cleared my mind,
- 51:12I told her this might take me a little
- 51:14while and you know, this is cutting into
- 51:16things we could look at that you don't
- 51:18know yet, but you know, just be patient
- 51:21with me. And I would say it took maybe
- 51:24like two to three minutes and I just sat
- 51:28there meditating and then suddenly it
- 51:30just like slammed into my head, brain
- 51:33surgeon. And so I said it and that's
- 51:36what he was, brain surgeon. So, you
- 51:39know, I think it's it you know, to be
- 51:42kept on our toes, but you know, that
- 51:44that it creates a lot of anxiety, you
- 51:47know, it's just so much nicer to work
- 51:49with people that already believe in all
- 51:51this. They They trust you to some extent
- 51:54and then, you know, and and then it's
- 51:56not like on you. It's on really it's all
- 52:00about them.
- 52:02>> That's amazing, Deborah. That's not the
- 52:04primary focus of how I'm helping people.
- 52:06It isn't just that I can give them
- 52:09information.
- 52:11It's more about
- 52:13how a person can grow in their own
- 52:18hearts and minds.
- 52:20I think that if a person's intention
- 52:24is
- 52:25more in alignment with their own
- 52:28personal development, that's what I'm
- 52:31more interested in versus if somebody's
- 52:33caught up in
- 52:35the ego or wanting to use information to
- 52:41gain advantage or some type of power.
- 52:45I'm not interested in helping people in
- 52:47that unless it's authentic and that it
- 52:50serve
- 52:51serve humanity as a whole.
- 52:53Or or their own individual world, but
- 52:56and but in a but in a way that is
- 52:59you know, that has good values to it.
- 53:01So,
- 53:03usually the people who come to me, it's
- 53:05it's usually about some type of personal
- 53:06need or development within themselves.
- 53:10>> Yeah, that's definitely the most fun
- 53:13type of readings I'd say. I I do get a
- 53:16lot of questions about the stock market
- 53:19and crypto and things like that.
- 53:22Which which are fun, but well, they're
- 53:27fun until the news isn't so good.
- 53:30And I had that happen this weekend with
- 53:34a couple that really really wanted to
- 53:37hear that their crypto investments were
- 53:40going to go way up over the next few
- 53:43months and they were desperate for that
- 53:45to happen and I just didn't see that
- 53:47happening and
- 53:49you know, they I could feel they were
- 53:51you know, both disappointed and you
- 53:53know, I'm sure I sure hope that I'm
- 53:56wrong. I don't think I am but um yeah,
- 54:00you know, just things like that. I on
- 54:02the one hand being a bearer of bad news
- 54:04but the thing is if they just sit for
- 54:06the next three or four months hoping for
- 54:09it to go up, they're going to they could
- 54:11lose everything you know, in in their
- 54:14lives because they're they've like that
- 54:17that's
- 54:18they've been
- 54:19basically like not really working just
- 54:22waiting for it to go up so they can cash
- 54:24out and get a new place to live and
- 54:26everything. So, you know, they may not
- 54:29be happy now but I think after what we
- 54:32talked about they're going to like take
- 54:33a different approach to their money
- 54:35management. So, in the long run
- 54:38hopefully it all helps. So, yeah, I I
- 54:41it's way more fun just to look at when
- 54:44someone comes and says, you know, I want
- 54:45to be a better person or I want to show
- 54:47up for people more, you know, can you
- 54:50look and see what I need to do within
- 54:53myself?
- 54:55>> Most people don't come to me and say I
- 54:56want to be a better person but that's
- 54:57usually what's behind it is that they're
- 55:00wanting to improve something in their
- 55:01lives and finance, you know, money is a
- 55:02part of
- 55:04how we function in society and so
- 55:06absolutely I've helped people with with
- 55:09that [snorts] component and real estate
- 55:11and there are ways to get information on
- 55:13making decisions. Again, it's just a
- 55:15matter of
- 55:17how balanced a person is in those
- 55:19endeavors so that they're going forward
- 55:22in a way that again, I'm a my background
- 55:25is in healthcare so I think about what
- 55:27is
- 55:27for their
- 55:29their own wellness or well-being.
- 55:33>> So, what is your favorite
- 55:36clear to to use your clairovoyance,
- 55:39clairsentience, claircognizance?
- 55:43Do you have one?
- 55:45>> If I have a favorite, I think for me at
- 55:47this point, I just tend to open and just
- 55:49receive or get as much as
- 55:51information as possible and I would say
- 55:54that
- 55:55they're all being utilized.
- 55:57The one that
- 55:59I don't know if I have a favorite. I
- 56:01would just say that the one that can
- 56:03also give me
- 56:05more information would also would of
- 56:07course be clairvoyance, seeing imagery.
- 56:12Because there's so much information you
- 56:14can gain, which of course which I know
- 56:16you're a professional remote viewer and
- 56:17that's the foundation of remote viewing.
- 56:20Of course, it's not the correct me if
- 56:22I'm wrong, it's not just about inner
- 56:23sight or seeing.
- 56:25But I know that that's that's a big big
- 56:28part of of that field as well. Do you
- 56:31have a favorite?
- 56:32>> Yeah, I would say definitely
- 56:35clairvoyance and
- 56:38probably more because when you're
- 56:40reading someone with the symbols that
- 56:42come up, like the symbols could be so
- 56:44fun and so interesting. You know, it
- 56:47never gets tiring. Like, oh, I see a
- 56:51person with the window and they're one
- 56:54person might be looking out the window
- 56:56and another person might be trying to
- 56:58fix the window. Another person might
- 57:00have already gone out it or another
- 57:02person might be turned away from it. So,
- 57:05there's like these repetitive symbols
- 57:07that will come up, but they show up
- 57:09different for each person and you never
- 57:12know how they're going to show up and
- 57:13you don't always know, you know, maybe
- 57:15if the same thing has come up time and
- 57:18again, you like if I see someone they're
- 57:22they're looking through a window, but
- 57:23it's all cloudy and they can't see
- 57:25through it. You know, that's a little
- 57:27more self-explanatory. Like, okay,
- 57:29they're having trouble seeing like
- 57:31what's next um as opposed to someone who
- 57:34is already on the other side of it. It's
- 57:36like, oh, you recently went through a
- 57:38big change and finally ended up where
- 57:40you wanted to be. So, like, sometimes
- 57:43these come with interpretations, but
- 57:44other times not. And then having to like
- 57:48probe it more to And then maybe your
- 57:51knowing might come in to give you
- 57:54insight along with the visual, but
- 57:56sometimes not. So, it's It's kind of
- 57:58like step-by-step
- 58:00exploration or mystery. And at this to
- 58:04to have things like that happen that are
- 58:06totally bypassing your conscious mind as
- 58:09to why they're there, but it is like
- 58:11watching little movies. So, I think I I
- 58:14really enjoyed that the most. And then
- 58:17also, you know, when people come, like
- 58:20my students who will say, well, I don't
- 58:23really see things, I just feel things.
- 58:26And then to what I'll usually say to
- 58:29them is, well, if you're with a client
- 58:32and let's say you're feeling sadness or
- 58:35something is happening in your heart,
- 58:38then just like go and visualize their
- 58:41heart chakra. And and ask like what like
- 58:44just assume it's about them cuz you
- 58:47weren't feeling it before, but now
- 58:49change your focus to like see a screen
- 58:52in front of you, see the person on the
- 58:53screen, and then put your focus on their
- 58:57heart. Or if you feel like, you know,
- 59:00pain go through your head, put your
- 59:02focus on their head and say, okay, show
- 59:04me the energy that's creating this pain.
- 59:08And that's like a way to move from one
- 59:10sensory to the other. So, I'll Do you
- 59:15ever do stuff like that? Or have you
- 59:18found
- 59:19>> With imagery,
- 59:20visions that we see in our mind's eye,
- 59:24if you will,
- 59:25that sometimes they can be actual direct
- 59:30information and sometimes they can be
- 59:31symbols that need to be interpreted. So,
- 59:33when you said that word interpretation,
- 59:35I just wanted to take a moment and pause
- 59:37on that because that also is a bit of an
- 59:39art form in this realm is interpreting
- 59:43the information as it comes forward and
- 59:45what is what is the meaning? And of
- 59:46course, there's books written on that
- 59:48and
- 59:49the internet's full of interpreting and
- 59:51but I think first and foremost is using
- 59:53your own intuition. At least that's how
- 59:55I teach of what of what is
- 59:57is coming up and then I just wanted to
- 59:59add that clairaudient that I often hear
- 1:00:02messages and I often am guided
- 1:00:04auditorially and that can give me a lot
- 1:00:08of information
- 1:00:10and on what a person needs or where to
- 1:00:14focus and and so forth.
- 1:00:16And getting clarity, you know, as we go
- 1:00:18and so forth. Mhm.
- 1:00:20>> Yeah, do you find that those messages
- 1:00:24are coming from the person themselves or
- 1:00:27do you feel they're coming from an
- 1:00:29external source like a spirit
- 1:00:32or entity?
- 1:00:34>> Over time, if we take the
- 1:00:38paradigm or viewpoint that everything is
- 1:00:40interconnected,
- 1:00:41then it just is. It's like in the
- 1:00:45quantum or unified field. You know, when
- 1:00:47you're talking earlier about your
- 1:00:50beautiful twin sister, which I know
- 1:00:52you've had
- 1:00:53a great conversation
- 1:00:56on New Thinking Allowed with
- 1:00:58that you can you would know when she was
- 1:00:59going to call.
- 1:01:01And I have
- 1:01:03siblings myself. I have four brothers
- 1:01:06and just in the last couple weeks, a
- 1:01:09couple of them called me. I was just
- 1:01:10about to call them, which is also a
- 1:01:12common occurrence.
- 1:01:13And one just happened a couple days ago
- 1:01:15and I said, "Oh, I was just about to
- 1:01:16call you, but you beat me to it." And
- 1:01:18then it begs the question,
- 1:01:20who was thinking of whom first?
- 1:01:23Or did it sort of simultane-
- 1:01:25simultaneously arise in our own
- 1:01:27consciousness? In practice, there are
- 1:01:30times where it seems that the
- 1:01:33information is more coming from the
- 1:01:35person, and then there are times that I
- 1:01:37am getting information from whom? Is it
- 1:01:40my higher self? Is it some Is it Is it
- 1:01:44my guardian angel? Is it an NHI, a
- 1:01:48non-human intelligence?
- 1:01:50Which of course, you know, there's
- 1:01:51different permutations of all of that.
- 1:01:54And in a given moment, it would probably
- 1:01:56just be What do I sense? Where do I
- 1:01:59sense that's coming from? As I go on
- 1:02:01also in life and in this
- 1:02:03this field, this arena, if you will,
- 1:02:07that I really do think it is all
- 1:02:08interconnected. It's just we're we're
- 1:02:10different lenses or different facets of
- 1:02:13the diamond.
- 1:02:15What do you think?
- 1:02:16>> I feel like it's all different sources,
- 1:02:20and certainly there's lots of times
- 1:02:22where if you ask me in that moment, I
- 1:02:24would say I have no idea where it's
- 1:02:26coming from.
- 1:02:27>> Yeah, but sometimes you just don't
- 1:02:28You're just like, it's coming to me, and
- 1:02:29it feels accurate. Yeah.
- 1:02:31>> Yeah, definitely times like that, as
- 1:02:34well as like with the images not always
- 1:02:36being sure is this a literal picture? Is
- 1:02:39this symbolic? I think the That's
- 1:02:41challenges that many clairvoyants have.
- 1:02:44But there are definitely times where I
- 1:02:46am very
- 1:02:48confident in saying this is a spirit.
- 1:02:52Because it'll have a certain voice,
- 1:02:55it'll speak in a certain way that seems
- 1:02:58very different from my client, and very
- 1:03:01different than how my thinking comes in.
- 1:03:04It might come with sensations, you know,
- 1:03:07like waves of energy or little shocks,
- 1:03:09or a change of temperature.
- 1:03:13Sometimes I will like get pictures of
- 1:03:16somebody of, you know, just like a face
- 1:03:18as someone was talking or just you know
- 1:03:21a real strong smell of like you know oh
- 1:03:24there's a old guy here smoking a pipe
- 1:03:27with like blue eyes and you know then
- 1:03:29they'll be able to confirm that that is
- 1:03:33like their grandfather who seems to show
- 1:03:35up in all their readings or things like
- 1:03:37that. You must get that quite a bit all
- 1:03:40right.
- 1:03:41>> Yeah just when you were speaking and
- 1:03:42again we're on the same wavelength I was
- 1:03:45just thinking about how
- 1:03:47my mediumship abilities just naturally
- 1:03:50started unfolding where I was starting
- 1:03:52to sense
- 1:03:53past pets loved ones and I would hear
- 1:03:56messages and I
- 1:03:59would ask people if I were to receive a
- 1:04:02message from this is before I was fully
- 1:04:05calling myself an intuitive
- 1:04:07if I were to receive messages from a
- 1:04:10past loved one or are you comfortable if
- 1:04:12I were to share that with you and again
- 1:04:15it was uncanny how I was how accurate it
- 1:04:18would be as far as who I was sensing who
- 1:04:20actually had already passed in their
- 1:04:21life what their personality was like and
- 1:04:23sometimes
- 1:04:25I would be shown what they looked like
- 1:04:26in the their human form and that would
- 1:04:30you know that brings so much comfort to
- 1:04:31people and I just interviewed
- 1:04:34or just edited an interview with Lauren
- 1:04:36Robertson who's a fabulous psychic
- 1:04:38medium and we had a whole conversation
- 1:04:41about how that can assist people with
- 1:04:43their grief of course people have to go
- 1:04:45through their own grieving
- 1:04:46and also Janice Miner Holden who is last
- 1:04:51I knew was the president of the
- 1:04:52International Association for Near Death
- 1:04:54Studies how she's done research that
- 1:04:56when people are able to
- 1:04:59communicate or participate in a process
- 1:05:01of after death communication induced
- 1:05:04after death communication that their
- 1:05:07grief actually decreases more than
- 1:05:10traditional talk therapy or counseling.
- 1:05:13Typically, I mean, you know, of course
- 1:05:15there's maybe not 100% everybody.
- 1:05:18So, yes, that absolutely happens and and
- 1:05:21it's a beau- it's a beautiful process
- 1:05:23because again
- 1:05:26it just can bring so much comfort to
- 1:05:27people and for them to realize
- 1:05:30for us as humans, some people it's just
- 1:05:32very normal and natural, but for many
- 1:05:34humans it's like we have to remember our
- 1:05:36spiritual selves and that's the way for
- 1:05:40people to get that validation if you
- 1:05:42will.
- 1:05:44>> Yeah. And that does seem to be the case
- 1:05:46with so many
- 1:05:49intuitives that I know and a lot of my
- 1:05:51students and me included where we didn't
- 1:05:54start off intentionally to be mediums.
- 1:05:58You know, certainly there's a lot of
- 1:06:00people that do, but maybe we were just
- 1:06:02kind of nervous about it or that just
- 1:06:04wasn't like our main focus.
- 1:06:06But after reading so many people on
- 1:06:10their energy field, you can't not have
- 1:06:14that happen. They show up, you know,
- 1:06:15there there's this whole spirit world
- 1:06:18around people and whether or not you
- 1:06:20want to believe they're there, you know,
- 1:06:22I do know sometimes
- 1:06:24people will misinterpret the spirits for
- 1:06:27other things, you know, especially if
- 1:06:29they come from a world view like, oh,
- 1:06:31there's not I I don't want to deal with
- 1:06:33spirits, but you know, here's something
- 1:06:36that looks like a cat or here's
- 1:06:38something that looks like you know, an
- 1:06:40an old man and I'm just going to like,
- 1:06:43you know, take a Youngian
- 1:06:45um
- 1:06:46approach to this and, you know, come up
- 1:06:48with what this might mean for the
- 1:06:49person, but like after a little bit of
- 1:06:52time you just or a long time you can't
- 1:06:55ignore it. They're there and if they
- 1:06:57wanted make themselves known, they're
- 1:06:59going to make themselves known
- 1:07:01regardless of if the intuitive wants
- 1:07:04that to happen.
- 1:07:06>> Yes, they will elbow their way into the
- 1:07:08room. No, and well, and just sometimes,
- 1:07:10yeah, you you sense it. And it is a
- 1:07:12beautiful unfolding with this
- 1:07:13development of intuition or psychic
- 1:07:16abilities are are sometimes a misnomer
- 1:07:19to say a development because it's also a
- 1:07:22natural ability uncovering it, but we do
- 1:07:25we can we can refine it. It's fun for me
- 1:07:27to recollect how when I was first
- 1:07:29starting out, of course, I had
- 1:07:30experiences, but when I was in in my
- 1:07:32training and being a student,
- 1:07:35how it was very basic, rudimentary as
- 1:07:37far as how I could receive information,
- 1:07:38but then how it just over the years just
- 1:07:41continues to open and open and open.
- 1:07:43Then all sudden, the spirits start
- 1:07:45showing up or we maybe it's said I we
- 1:07:47become more aware of them. And also, it
- 1:07:49might also be part of
- 1:07:52what that person needs in front of us.
- 1:07:56>> Yeah, absolutely.
- 1:07:58Well,
- 1:08:00I had this experience
- 1:08:02a few years ago where I was reading a
- 1:08:06client and she had some career questions
- 1:08:09and we were just going in over the
- 1:08:11career and then suddenly something
- 1:08:14happened. Now, I had my eyes closed, she
- 1:08:17was on Zoom and I don't have cameras on
- 1:08:20when I'm doing my readings, so I just
- 1:08:22hear their voice. So, I I can and she
- 1:08:25wasn't speaking, I was talking the most
- 1:08:27most of the time and something happened.
- 1:08:30It was like
- 1:08:32a crashing in, like I just it was like I
- 1:08:35felt a crashing, almost like someone
- 1:08:37came in through the ceiling, but but and
- 1:08:40it just like shook me and I got all
- 1:08:43discombobulated and I could barely speak
- 1:08:46and I was like, I don't know what's
- 1:08:47happening right now, but something just
- 1:08:49happened. Like give me a minute to
- 1:08:51compose myself. I was just like, what is
- 1:08:54going on? And then I heard this name,
- 1:08:58like a name ring out and I think it was
- 1:09:01Carolyn. Can't really remember but it I
- 1:09:04I said the name and then I got this
- 1:09:08picture of this little girl standing
- 1:09:10there waving and I just started to get
- 1:09:13like waves from her and information and
- 1:09:19and I described this girl and she was
- 1:09:21like, "Oh, well, I don't know who the
- 1:09:22girl is but um
- 1:09:25she said, "I had I was in an orphanage
- 1:09:30and there was a
- 1:09:33girl that I was friends with." And this
- 1:09:36took her a while to figure out and then
- 1:09:39then she remembered. So, she said she
- 1:09:42was in an orphanage.
- 1:09:45She was best friends with this little
- 1:09:47girl and they were both like around 9
- 1:09:50years old or so and they were best
- 1:09:52friends for a few years and then they
- 1:09:54got split up.
- 1:09:56The girl went to another orphanage and
- 1:09:59she never heard from her again. But, she
- 1:10:01made such an impact on her that she
- 1:10:03named her daughter after her and the
- 1:10:06daughter's name was the same name. So, I
- 1:10:10thought that was really cool and that
- 1:10:13that was so interesting to me cuz I knew
- 1:10:15that like like she had come into the
- 1:10:17scene, you know, and it was so weird
- 1:10:20that it was like this crashing
- 1:10:21sensation. So, after that, that's really
- 1:10:25when
- 1:10:26I found like more and more spirits were
- 1:10:29coming through at that time.
- 1:10:31Um but, yeah, sometimes it is really
- 1:10:34when it's not that strong, it can be
- 1:10:37really subtle and there's a lot of times
- 1:10:39where
- 1:10:40you know, if if I'm not sure it's a
- 1:10:43spirit, I don't want to say it's a
- 1:10:45spirit, you know, what? And I know some
- 1:10:48readers will constantly say like, "Oh,
- 1:10:50it's spirit is telling me this or spirit
- 1:10:53is telling me that." But, I only I to
- 1:10:55use that terminology if I really have a
- 1:10:59reason to be confident that it's
- 1:11:01actually spirit as opposed to like the
- 1:11:04telepathy from that person being read.
- 1:11:08Do you Do you ever have a sense that it
- 1:11:10really is like them, like a part of
- 1:11:12their mind or heart that's talking to
- 1:11:15you directly?
- 1:11:17>> Oh, absolutely.
- 1:11:19Particularly if I'm doing
- 1:11:22like an energy assessment. Well, in
- 1:11:24general, I do check That's what I check
- 1:11:26in with first and foremost is the the
- 1:11:28client, the person, you know, tell me
- 1:11:30what I need to know. Where do you want
- 1:11:32me to go? What do we need to do? That's
- 1:11:33what I'm saying in my mind after I get
- 1:11:35centered and open and I do all the
- 1:11:37things I do to be able to receive and
- 1:11:39assist them.
- 1:11:41Usually, most often it is from them, but
- 1:11:43other times there's other guidance
- 1:11:45coming from other places. And sometimes
- 1:11:48I think it is also my higher self that's
- 1:11:51just picking up on, you know,
- 1:11:53that's, you know, the
- 1:11:55gazillion-dollar question is where does
- 1:11:57it come from?
- 1:11:58>> [laughter]
- 1:11:58>> Where does that Where does that come
- 1:12:00from? And I also just want to add that
- 1:12:03we're talking about psychic and an an
- 1:12:05intuition. I think that they can be used
- 1:12:07interchangeably, but they can also be on
- 1:12:08their own continuum as well because I
- 1:12:10think that intuition
- 1:12:13is a natural part of our own
- 1:12:15consciousness or psychology, if you
- 1:12:17will, that's not typically encouraged,
- 1:12:20although like I had a father who
- 1:12:22encouraged it and I'm grateful for that.
- 1:12:25And maybe you did in your life as well,
- 1:12:27which is maybe why you're in in this
- 1:12:29field. So, there's your own inner
- 1:12:32compass, if you will, your own north
- 1:12:33node that you have within you. And then
- 1:12:37there also can be where you can receive
- 1:12:39information beyond space and time and
- 1:12:42more of that psychic, but, you know,
- 1:12:43again, these are just terms.
- 1:12:46I also just want to add that
- 1:12:49while sometimes these things can happen
- 1:12:50spontaneously, We can
- 1:12:53learn to get information.
- 1:12:55I think I think developing a person's
- 1:12:58intuition, and this is why I wrote my
- 1:13:00book and why I'm so grateful to talk
- 1:13:01with you, is something that is an
- 1:13:03underutilized superpower that we all
- 1:13:06have, that if people took the time to
- 1:13:10maybe even just meditate once a week or
- 1:13:13do a training with
- 1:13:15somebody who is credible,
- 1:13:17that your life will likely improve by
- 1:13:19doing that.
- 1:13:21But, I also want to add that
- 1:13:23based on a person who's listening their
- 1:13:26own belief or their own karma, if you
- 1:13:28will, that we also need to be in the
- 1:13:31earth world and live our lives.
- 1:13:34And and it isn't an either/or, one or
- 1:13:37the other, but if a person is
- 1:13:41it's like, why does a person want to
- 1:13:43develop their intuitive or psychic
- 1:13:45abilities? What is the What is the
- 1:13:47purpose or intention or the end goal for
- 1:13:49that? And to also live your life because
- 1:13:53life is also a great teacher, and
- 1:13:54sometimes these
- 1:13:57these uh experiences do happen
- 1:13:59spontaneously.
- 1:14:01And at the same time, I think the more
- 1:14:03that we have that and
- 1:14:06utilize it in our own earthly realm, if
- 1:14:09you will, that
- 1:14:11we can feel that sense of awe and wonder
- 1:14:15in our daily lives, and I think that
- 1:14:17that's really what a lot of people are
- 1:14:19looking for. There was a psychologist,
- 1:14:22sociologist, Howard Howard Kleinbell, I
- 1:14:24believe it was his name, was he talks
- 1:14:26about seven spiritual hungers that
- 1:14:28humans have. And one of them is for awe
- 1:14:31and transcendence.
- 1:14:32And I think that what we're talking
- 1:14:33about,
- 1:14:35I don't know, I would curious what you
- 1:14:36have to say, but
- 1:14:38I'm in awe every day because I get to be
- 1:14:41in this realm that continually shows
- 1:14:44itself over and over in the most
- 1:14:46beautiful ways and
- 1:14:49and I am so grateful to talk with you
- 1:14:51because hopefully our words, our
- 1:14:53presence, our conversation today will
- 1:14:55inspire others to embrace that in
- 1:14:58meaningful ways so that so that they can
- 1:15:01feel more joy, peace, and love in their
- 1:15:04lives as well.
- 1:15:06>> Yeah, definitely. I always feel so
- 1:15:09grateful to be doing this work because,
- 1:15:12you know, it's so easy to get dragged
- 1:15:15down by other things, especially you
- 1:15:17know, you watch TV and I am an avid news
- 1:15:22watcher. Like I love politics. I watch
- 1:15:26C-SPAN and the Senate hearings all the
- 1:15:28time, which are
- 1:15:29constantly frustrating. But and then,
- 1:15:32you know, having political debates with
- 1:15:35people.
- 1:15:36But [laughter] I find it really
- 1:15:37interesting. But then to so and it
- 1:15:40definitely, you know, I know the moment
- 1:15:42my vibration goes down, which is
- 1:15:44probably, you know, 5 minutes after
- 1:15:47turning on the TV, I can feel it. But
- 1:15:49then to be able to meditate for a little
- 1:15:53bit and then go into an intuitive
- 1:15:55session where all of that goes out the
- 1:15:57window and, you know, we're not always
- 1:16:00dealing with easy things with people in
- 1:16:03their lives. But for one, it's just so
- 1:16:05fun, you know, again like all the
- 1:16:07imagery that's coming up. It's like
- 1:16:10watching movies and cartoons and being
- 1:16:14on an adventure with the person and then
- 1:16:17getting to experience what they're
- 1:16:19experiencing and getting to see the
- 1:16:22transformation with people. You know,
- 1:16:24that's the other thing doing this long
- 1:16:26term. Like I've got clients where, you
- 1:16:29know, they started off like they didn't
- 1:16:31know where they wanted to
- 1:16:34go to school and they ended up becoming
- 1:16:36medical doctors or, you know, attorneys
- 1:16:39or all kinds of things and, you know,
- 1:16:41where they met a guy the last week and
- 1:16:43they wanted a reading on them and now
- 1:16:45like 10 years later they're married and
- 1:16:48another 15 years later they're having
- 1:16:50babies and you know, so it's like
- 1:16:52getting to just experience other
- 1:16:54people's lives and then also just like
- 1:16:57being in that vibration, you know,
- 1:16:59regardless of whatever the content is to
- 1:17:02I always feel so different after reading
- 1:17:06and most of the time uplifted. I didn't
- 1:17:08feel uplifted with the couple where I
- 1:17:11was like looking at their crypto
- 1:17:13tanking.
- 1:17:14I I didn't I didn't I felt kind of sad
- 1:17:18for them and like, oh, I wanted to give
- 1:17:19them good news. But most of the time I
- 1:17:23it's like getting into this vibration
- 1:17:25and zone and I come out of it and I just
- 1:17:28feel I I feel like almost manic, like
- 1:17:31excited and happy and so just knowing
- 1:17:35how to go in and out of
- 1:17:38vibrations or states and doing this
- 1:17:41client work can really help in some
- 1:17:44ways. I mean meditation totally does
- 1:17:47too. It's just like a different way and
- 1:17:49I feel so grateful. I I think when
- 1:17:52you're doing um this work
- 1:17:54professionally, like even if you kind of
- 1:17:56wake up and you're like, oh, I don't
- 1:17:58really feel like doing a reading today.
- 1:18:00It's it's like taking your vitamins, you
- 1:18:03know, you might not feel like swallowing
- 1:18:05them, but it has such an amazing impact.
- 1:18:08So
- 1:18:09yeah, I feel very blessed to be able to
- 1:18:11do that and I think when you know how to
- 1:18:14change states, then you can go into the
- 1:18:18lower vibrations, you know, cuz you
- 1:18:20know, I'm not going to get stuck there.
- 1:18:22I can pull myself up. Whereas for some
- 1:18:25people it's like, no, you definitely do
- 1:18:27not want to turn your TV on today or
- 1:18:30this week, you know, if if you can't
- 1:18:32pull yourself out so easily.
- 1:18:35>> Yeah, thank you for that, Deborah, and I
- 1:18:36don't want to sound Pollyanna-ish. I'm I
- 1:18:40I've been providing
- 1:18:44patient care since I was a teenager. I
- 1:18:46worked in hospitals, skilled nursing
- 1:18:47facilities.
- 1:18:50I've seen all sorts of health conditions
- 1:18:53and what and even in my own practice.
- 1:18:56It's not uncommon for people who are
- 1:18:57dealing with
- 1:18:59new diagnoses or not that that's my main
- 1:19:04focus is is just health, but
- 1:19:08meaning that I know that people are
- 1:19:10dealing with real-world issues in their
- 1:19:12lives and that's why they take time out
- 1:19:14of their schedule to book sessions, to
- 1:19:17pay money to meet with somebody such as
- 1:19:20our ourselves. And for me when I'm
- 1:19:24working with somebody
- 1:19:26if they are
- 1:19:28receiving something that is not
- 1:19:31necessarily what they want to hear. It's
- 1:19:33a matter of or something going on for
- 1:19:36them that's challenging.
- 1:19:39It's what can we how can we help them
- 1:19:40through that process? And I would
- 1:19:42imagine maybe with your folks you did
- 1:19:43the same thing. And doing reconnaissance
- 1:19:46like, you know, with the your crypto
- 1:19:48people, you know, what's going on with
- 1:19:50them? How did they make those decisions?
- 1:19:52And and it's true. Sometimes even
- 1:19:55despite our best efforts, we can have
- 1:19:56still have challenging situations. And
- 1:19:59again, that's something to really
- 1:20:01contemplate for us all of us
- 1:20:03individually and I I think people do
- 1:20:05their lives, you know, like, why did
- 1:20:06this quote bad thing happen or
- 1:20:09I tried this, but I didn't get into this
- 1:20:11or I thought that that was the person I
- 1:20:13was going to marry, but it completely
- 1:20:15went south and
- 1:20:17I know in my life hindsight has really
- 1:20:19helped a lot in that arena. And I have
- 1:20:22worked with people where they're
- 1:20:24literally
- 1:20:26going to die. There's
- 1:20:29their treatments have run out. They've
- 1:20:31done all the traditional and
- 1:20:32non-traditional treatments, and that is
- 1:20:34it.
- 1:20:35And they're really looking in that case
- 1:20:37usually for comfort and peace and some
- 1:20:39type of connection to the spirit world
- 1:20:42to know that we do continue after this.
- 1:20:44And it's a it's an incredible honor and
- 1:20:47privilege for me to work with
- 1:20:49each and every person who seeks my
- 1:20:51support because it is a very personal
- 1:20:54and intimate experience to do that,
- 1:20:58but also
- 1:20:59very rewarding.
- 1:21:02>> Yeah, and that's such a good point that
- 1:21:05well, for one, we're all going to die at
- 1:21:07some point, you know, and and this is
- 1:21:09the paradox for
- 1:21:11all healers. I think especially energy
- 1:21:14healers. Cuz you know, on the one hand,
- 1:21:16it's like you want to keep an open mind
- 1:21:19that all healing is possible, but if if
- 1:21:23healing is, you know, about the
- 1:21:25physical, well, you're not always going
- 1:21:28to
- 1:21:28you're there's a lot of times you're not
- 1:21:30going to be successful because
- 1:21:31everyone's going to die at some point.
- 1:21:33So then, you know, what what is the
- 1:21:35healing doing? It's may very well be
- 1:21:39helping with that transition. You know,
- 1:21:41there I've definitely had readings where
- 1:21:45I I entered it thinking the goal is to
- 1:21:48keep them alive, but actually the goal
- 1:21:51was to help them transition, and they
- 1:21:53died the very next day.
- 1:21:55So,
- 1:21:56so yeah, that's a challenge, but also we
- 1:21:59never do want to
- 1:22:01leave people with just bad news. And
- 1:22:04that doesn't mean like, oh, I'm just
- 1:22:06going to now make up something that's
- 1:22:08good. It's like, no. If this if this
- 1:22:10goal isn't going to work out, then why
- 1:22:14isn't it working?
- 1:22:16What what are their next steps? What's
- 1:22:18going to help them cope with all of
- 1:22:21this? That's essential. You don't want
- 1:22:23to just say, you know, no, sorry, he's
- 1:22:26he's dumping you. You're not going to
- 1:22:28hear from him again and you know, see
- 1:22:30you later.
- 1:22:31>> Your life is ruined and that's that. No,
- 1:22:34you of course Yeah. Hearts not. Yeah.
- 1:22:36>> But yeah, helping people deal with
- 1:22:39disappointments and you know, so often
- 1:22:42times whatever they're disappointed
- 1:22:45with, it's like they are they had
- 1:22:47limited information. You know, like it
- 1:22:49may not even be that they so much wanted
- 1:22:52to be with the person who's not
- 1:22:54reciprocating. Well, that person wasn't
- 1:22:57right for them to begin with, you know,
- 1:23:00I mean maybe most of the time maybe they
- 1:23:03could have been good if that person had
- 1:23:04been available, but there's so many
- 1:23:07unknowns and people build these stories
- 1:23:09about what they think they have to have
- 1:23:11or how it has to turn out and I mean
- 1:23:14even with that the couple that I was
- 1:23:17talking about where if they didn't get
- 1:23:19their crypto, they were going to lose
- 1:23:21this huge deposit on their house and
- 1:23:23they weren't going to be able to buy the
- 1:23:25house they wanted, but really when we we
- 1:23:28looked into it, the house was an
- 1:23:30$800,000 house and they were like in
- 1:23:34their late 70s, early 80s. Did Did they
- 1:23:38really want to have the taxes on a
- 1:23:40$800,000 house if they have like, you
- 1:23:43know, no money in their bank account?
- 1:23:45So, you know, it might in the moment be
- 1:23:47devastating that they're not going to be
- 1:23:49able to buy this house they wanted, but
- 1:23:52that might have like placed such a
- 1:23:54burden if it did work out. So, you know,
- 1:23:57there's just sometimes these things are
- 1:23:59blessing in disguises and looking deeper
- 1:24:02into it, you know, can also be helpful.
- 1:24:06But this is where it's like we do get to
- 1:24:08like
- 1:24:09have an intimate first view into
- 1:24:13people's lives and I think for those of
- 1:24:16us that are interested in people, you
- 1:24:18know, it is like getting to see the
- 1:24:20movies of their lives and and it is such
- 1:24:23a blessing.
- 1:24:24>> I have great compassion
- 1:24:27for people when they don't get what they
- 1:24:29want or they think they want.
- 1:24:32Absolutely. I I've been in that boat.
- 1:24:35I'll probably be in that boat again. And
- 1:24:38also when you're talking about
- 1:24:39relationships,
- 1:24:41there's a saying is somebody a reason, a
- 1:24:43season, or a lifetime. And maybe there
- 1:24:46was some
- 1:24:48exploration, learning, development
- 1:24:51>> that happened for those individuals in
- 1:24:53that relationship. I've talked with Rob
- 1:24:55Schwartz who's talks about has assisted
- 1:24:58people with
- 1:25:00soul regressions and he talks about how
- 1:25:04we choose certain virtues we want to
- 1:25:07grow and develop in our lives and that
- 1:25:09maybe there's there's a a reason for
- 1:25:12some of that.
- 1:25:14And so I just wanted to acknowledge
- 1:25:16that piece.
- 1:25:18>> That made me think of uh
- 1:25:20famous psychologist Fritz Perls.
- 1:25:24I read an article where he was talking
- 1:25:26about imagination
- 1:25:28and he was saying that when people
- 1:25:31imagine things including
- 1:25:35either what they would really like to
- 1:25:37have in life but doesn't work out or
- 1:25:41maybe when they're imagining their fears
- 1:25:44and anxieties coming true, they're
- 1:25:47running through all these different
- 1:25:49scenarios
- 1:25:51and maybe because they spent some time
- 1:25:54engaging with that imaginary story, they
- 1:25:59don't have to now manifest it in life.
- 1:26:03And yeah, and I think about that a lot
- 1:26:08where okay, like I'm having this fantasy
- 1:26:11about being with this person and you
- 1:26:13know,
- 1:26:14regardless whether it's a great one or a
- 1:26:17scary one.
- 1:26:19Okay, now been there done that and I
- 1:26:21don't need to now like manifest this
- 1:26:24whole relationship around that. And so
- 1:26:27he was saying imagination can be like
- 1:26:29really useful. It's like you you can
- 1:26:32maybe just have a couple of
- 1:26:34relationships instead of 10
- 1:26:36relationships.
- 1:26:38>> Depending on a person's belief, I'm I'm
- 1:26:40in this camp. I think that we all do
- 1:26:42have karma and dharma and of course we
- 1:26:46are always creating that. So we we are
- 1:26:48in the driver's seat and that some
- 1:26:52things maybe are meant to come to pass
- 1:26:54in our lives or or not depending on our
- 1:26:56own intentions or or why we're here. And
- 1:26:59it was interesting with you talking
- 1:27:00about your crypto couple.
- 1:27:03Were you doing like a like a future
- 1:27:06forecast for them or Okay, yeah. And
- 1:27:08that's something we haven't touched on
- 1:27:10in this conversation, but that's also
- 1:27:12another component in this realm is
- 1:27:15likely outcomes.
- 1:27:17Which I don't know if you want to touch
- 1:27:18on or not, but that's that's a whole
- 1:27:19other a whole other piece. You you
- 1:27:21probably do more of that than than I do
- 1:27:23although that also has its own set of
- 1:27:26variables. So
- 1:27:28as far as what the likely outcome might
- 1:27:29be. Mhm.
- 1:27:31>> What are your thoughts on that? I'm sure
- 1:27:33you get the question all the time if you
- 1:27:36see an outcome for someone is it for
- 1:27:40sure? Is it stable or reliable or could
- 1:27:44it change?
- 1:27:46>> If it's something that's in the near
- 1:27:48future, it's usually
- 1:27:50it's usually accurate as to what will
- 1:27:53occur.
- 1:27:54There's often different variables
- 1:27:56involved on how a person would actions
- 1:27:59they take and so forth.
- 1:28:01How I was taught is that it's really
- 1:28:03what's happening in this moment in time
- 1:28:05and that things can change. And I know
- 1:28:08you're friends with and work
- 1:28:11professionally with Daz Smith, a
- 1:28:13fabulous remote viewer, and he's talked
- 1:28:15about his accuracy with remote viewing
- 1:28:17is 80 plus percent. But when we get into
- 1:28:20doing future forecasting, then it goes
- 1:28:23down to like in the 60 percentile.
- 1:28:26If if I recall those numbers correctly,
- 1:28:28I may be slightly off on that. And he I
- 1:28:31think says the same thing is that
- 1:28:33there's so many variables, and and
- 1:28:36things can change essentially. And at
- 1:28:38the same time, I've had the pleasure of
- 1:28:42being on a live stream with Jeffrey
- 1:28:43Mishlove and Russell Targ, and Russell
- 1:28:45Targ indicates that we maybe don't have
- 1:28:48as much control over our
- 1:28:51destiny, if you will, or I'm not exactly
- 1:28:53sure how he said that.
- 1:28:55Then we think we do.
- 1:28:57Meaning that Meaning that there's things
- 1:28:59that are sort of already mapped out for
- 1:29:00us. So, yeah, that's a that's a big one.
- 1:29:04>> Yeah. Well, when I do readings for
- 1:29:07people,
- 1:29:09it seems like some people really have
- 1:29:11their future set, and it's easy to read
- 1:29:15what's about to happen, and then
- 1:29:18and then I'll get confirmation on it. Uh
- 1:29:22like I got this woman, she was going to
- 1:29:25be meeting her future husband, and had
- 1:29:29such a strong description of him, but he
- 1:29:32was unusual looking. Like he had bright
- 1:29:34red hair and a bright
- 1:29:36bright red
- 1:29:38beard and piercing blue eyes. And this
- 1:29:41came in so strongly, and she wrote to me
- 1:29:44like less than a week later saying she
- 1:29:46had met the guy like 3 days after we
- 1:29:49met, and they ended up getting married.
- 1:29:51And that was so clear. But then I'll
- 1:29:55look at other people's futures, and
- 1:29:58sometimes I will get like just this
- 1:30:01blank slate, and I'll get like imagery
- 1:30:04like Yeah, like it hasn't even been
- 1:30:07created yet. Like they need to put more
- 1:30:09time. This really gets into manifesting.
- 1:30:11Like they haven't put their goals out
- 1:30:14and it's it's blank. Like there's
- 1:30:16nothing there. And I've found over the
- 1:30:18years that when I get that,
- 1:30:21that does seem to correlate with their
- 1:30:24perception of themselves where they'll
- 1:30:26be like, "Yeah, I have no idea what I
- 1:30:28want to do in the future. I don't know
- 1:30:30what I should be doing. I don't know
- 1:30:32what I want to be doing." That blank
- 1:30:35slate will correspond with where they're
- 1:30:37at even when I didn't know that's where
- 1:30:40they're at. Whereas like people that do
- 1:30:43have more of
- 1:30:45more
- 1:30:46well-defined goals or they've really
- 1:30:48spent time with it, like it does seem to
- 1:30:50be like there's more there. But still
- 1:30:53like where you said that if it's
- 1:30:55something that's going to happen very
- 1:30:57soon, it just seems to be more
- 1:30:59solidified
- 1:31:01a lot of times. And I think that both
- 1:31:05I talked to a lot of psychics who read
- 1:31:07people and then also remote viewers. You
- 1:31:09know, there there's different remote
- 1:31:11viewing researchers that are really
- 1:31:14trying to to do tests on that. And while
- 1:31:17there's not hard data on it, there's
- 1:31:20anecdotal that if an event is going to
- 1:31:24happen soon or if it's going to be
- 1:31:26really definitive, like a football game
- 1:31:30where one team is going to really win
- 1:31:34big, they're going to have a lot more
- 1:31:35points than the other team, then and
- 1:31:38that's very clear like from the start of
- 1:31:40the game, that tends to be easier to
- 1:31:43predict than if the teams are much
- 1:31:46closer or maybe they were in a tie up
- 1:31:49until the very end, then that seems
- 1:31:51harder to predict. So, that's
- 1:31:53interesting that you've noticed
- 1:31:57some of that yourself.
- 1:31:59>> I have interviewed a gentleman Christian
- 1:32:03Sundberg who recalls his pre-birth
- 1:32:05memories and he talks about how he
- 1:32:08recalls being fitted for the veil that
- 1:32:11like the the veil between seemingly this
- 1:32:13world and the other world that can
- 1:32:14impact our awareness of that world or
- 1:32:17memories.
- 1:32:19And he said he was shown a probability
- 1:32:21tree of if you take this make this
- 1:32:23decision or this path
- 1:32:25then this is likely to happen and if you
- 1:32:27do this this this is likely to happen
- 1:32:29and it was all these different
- 1:32:30possibilities.
- 1:32:32And
- 1:32:34at this point I look at intuition as
- 1:32:38possibly
- 1:32:41the best path for that individual and
- 1:32:44that the more that we can connect with
- 1:32:46our own souls or inner guidance or inner
- 1:32:49knowing that
- 1:32:51we're going to
- 1:32:54I don't know always have an easier time
- 1:32:56but have more meaning and purpose and
- 1:32:57joy and love in our lives and maybe
- 1:33:00connect more. I'm also a fan of
- 1:33:02astrology connect more with our uh core
- 1:33:06meaning and purpose and also our mission
- 1:33:08in life. And and so I I think that
- 1:33:12that's a nice way to look at how we can
- 1:33:15receive information or connect with
- 1:33:16ourselves to have
- 1:33:19hopefully a smoother ride in life.
- 1:33:22>> That's really cool.
- 1:33:24Well, have you ever had a sense that
- 1:33:26something was going to happen in your
- 1:33:28life
- 1:33:30but maybe it wasn't a positive thing and
- 1:33:33you tried to prevent it but couldn't.
- 1:33:37Have you ever had that happen?
- 1:33:40>> Well, uh people dying in my life.
- 1:33:43>> [laughter]
- 1:33:44>> Um
- 1:33:46yes, that would probably take the cake.
- 1:33:48Yeah.
- 1:33:50Not ready to let a loved one go.
- 1:33:54>> But but you just intuitively
- 1:33:56knew that they were going to
- 1:33:59>> Well, sometimes there's signs depending
- 1:34:01on a person's health or age.
- 1:34:05But just like I think about
- 1:34:07some close loved ones where
- 1:34:11maybe they had they definitely had some
- 1:34:12health
- 1:34:14issues going on, but I could sense when
- 1:34:16things were turning and that it was
- 1:34:18imminent.
- 1:34:20Also, with working in the hospital, I
- 1:34:23worked in all the units and ICUs and I
- 1:34:26could go in and I got a sense of
- 1:34:30how likely a person was to stay
- 1:34:33in this earthly realm or if they were on
- 1:34:34the fence, kind of trying to decide if
- 1:34:36they were going to stay or go or
- 1:34:38transition.
- 1:34:39So, I suppose other people making
- 1:34:41decisions that that maybe aren't always
- 1:34:43the best for them, but again, that's
- 1:34:46that's their choice.
- 1:34:48>> Yeah, I've I've had several times
- 1:34:52where I knew something was going to
- 1:34:54happen and I tried to stop it, but
- 1:34:57couldn't.
- 1:34:58Like the first time I was in a
- 1:35:00relationship with this guy Michael years
- 1:35:03ago. It was his birthday and we had a
- 1:35:06beautiful day planned, I thought.
- 1:35:10I thought everything was going to be
- 1:35:11fine and then out of nowhere, I had this
- 1:35:13knowingness that there was going to be
- 1:35:15like some kind of big blow up and and he
- 1:35:19was going to get really mad. And this
- 1:35:21made no sense because, you know, we woke
- 1:35:24up really happy and everything just
- 1:35:27seemed fine and like I was kind of on
- 1:35:29edge, but I was being extra careful to,
- 1:35:32you know, be nice and not have any
- 1:35:35arguments or anything. But then, it
- 1:35:38turned out like I guess I didn't plan
- 1:35:42enough for his birthday. Like I thought
- 1:35:44we go bowling and have fun, but he had
- 1:35:47like spent a lot of money on my birthday
- 1:35:49and I didn't like do that for his. And
- 1:35:52so like about 6 hours later he just like
- 1:35:55exploded,
- 1:35:56and it was like this horrible blow up
- 1:35:58and we broke up like soon after. And so
- 1:36:02that but I remember like I I just knew
- 1:36:06this was going to happen, and so I tried
- 1:36:08to prevent it but couldn't. And another
- 1:36:10time I woke up one morning, this was
- 1:36:13several years ago, and I heard this
- 1:36:16voice in my head that said
- 1:36:20April 5th. It was either April 5th or
- 1:36:23May 5th, but like I I heard I knew it at
- 1:36:25the time. And so it was like April 5th.
- 1:36:28And and then there were some other
- 1:36:30things that came in with it that made me
- 1:36:33Oh, I saw like trees falling down and
- 1:36:37like it seemed like something really bad
- 1:36:38was going to happen. And as it turned
- 1:36:42out
- 1:36:43well, two things. I As the day This was
- 1:36:46like a month before the day approached
- 1:36:48and like every single day I was trying
- 1:36:51to get more information and getting
- 1:36:53really nervous about it. And as
- 1:36:56the day approached I
- 1:36:59said to my son and partner, I was like,
- 1:37:03"You guys like I don't want you to go
- 1:37:05anywhere today. Like I I just get this
- 1:37:08sense that like I'm going to somehow
- 1:37:10lose someone like really close to me and
- 1:37:13you guys aren't allowed to go anywhere
- 1:37:15today. Something really bad is going to
- 1:37:17happen." But we woke up and it was a
- 1:37:19beautiful day and they didn't listen to
- 1:37:21me like they drove to the beach. And as
- 1:37:24it turned out there were terrible
- 1:37:27tornadoes
- 1:37:29in another part of the country with like
- 1:37:31massive devastation in other places. So
- 1:37:35that the trees blowing down and stuff,
- 1:37:37that didn't happen to us. It happened
- 1:37:39somewhere else though. But what did
- 1:37:42happen to us was while they were out, I
- 1:37:45was like so caught up in like oh my
- 1:37:48gosh, what's going to be happening today
- 1:37:50that um I lost track of our dog. We had
- 1:37:54a Siberian Husky and she got out and I
- 1:37:58wasn't even thinking about her cuz I was
- 1:37:59all wrapped up in this. And as it turned
- 1:38:02out, she went missing and she was gone
- 1:38:05for 3 months after that. Now, we did
- 1:38:08eventually get her back. That's like a
- 1:38:10whole other story cuz
- 1:38:12myself and all these people had to use
- 1:38:14our psychic abilities to try to see
- 1:38:16where she was and who she was with. And
- 1:38:18it turned out she got out. A woman found
- 1:38:21her, kept her for herself for 3 months
- 1:38:24until I got like the call that she was
- 1:38:27ready to give her back. And it turned
- 1:38:29out like she had horses in this big
- 1:38:31property where where um my dog Artemis
- 1:38:34would run with the horses and we had
- 1:38:36seen all that. We just There were too
- 1:38:38many other properties with horses
- 1:38:40though, so we couldn't like find the
- 1:38:43exact one. But we got all these details
- 1:38:45correct. But anyway, going back to this
- 1:38:48whole big saga with me being afraid I
- 1:38:51was going to lose a family member that
- 1:38:53day, I did lose one, but it wasn't who I
- 1:38:56thought it was. And the gist of this not
- 1:38:59so um happy story is that I couldn't
- 1:39:03stop it. You know, so that's I I I like
- 1:39:07to take a realistic approach with
- 1:39:10you know, the topic of like seeing into
- 1:39:12the future. Like yes, there's some
- 1:39:15things we could do to emotionally
- 1:39:16prepare ourselves, but it seems like we
- 1:39:19can't always stop it. And also sometimes
- 1:39:22we misinterpret it, you know, cuz just
- 1:39:24like any psychic information, we'll get
- 1:39:27bits and pieces, but we're not always
- 1:39:29getting the whole story.
- 1:39:32What What are your thoughts on that?
- 1:39:34>> Yeah, I I know you have shared that
- 1:39:36story with me privately and I'm so glad
- 1:39:39that you were able to get your dog back
- 1:39:41and how that was just so
- 1:39:45horrible and sad what happened with that
- 1:39:47situation and and I I wonder if there
- 1:39:51was more insight you had about
- 1:39:54um
- 1:39:56all that occurred after which I imagine
- 1:39:58you do.
- 1:39:59When you first asked the question, I my
- 1:40:01first response was sharing about loved
- 1:40:03ones. I just want to briefly share that
- 1:40:06I recall having a dream about a horrible
- 1:40:08flood and
- 1:40:11there was trees and people and it was a
- 1:40:14tsunami that happened about 20 years ago
- 1:40:18and
- 1:40:19it happened just a couple days after I'd
- 1:40:20had my dream, but I remember waking up
- 1:40:22and thinking, why am I having this
- 1:40:23dream? Then I remember thinking, well,
- 1:40:25what am I to do with this? And I know
- 1:40:27that that's happened to countless
- 1:40:29people. I know it happened with 9/11 and
- 1:40:31many other events where people have
- 1:40:33precognitive information
- 1:40:36and
- 1:40:37maybe it's a warning system.
- 1:40:40I suppose if I'd meditated more, I was
- 1:40:42just newly developing my intuition at
- 1:40:44that time, maybe I would have gotten
- 1:40:45more information.
- 1:40:47Not that I could have stopped it, but
- 1:40:49there was something there maybe.
- 1:40:52>> Well, that's such a good question. Why
- 1:40:54are we getting this information? And
- 1:40:59we're reading too much into it and
- 1:41:01definitely
- 1:41:03there's a lot of people who really
- 1:41:05struggle with the sense of
- 1:41:06responsibility, especially kids. I know
- 1:41:09that it's very traumatizing for little
- 1:41:11kids because they don't know the
- 1:41:13difference between
- 1:41:16causality and perception. So, they have
- 1:41:20a dream of someone dying and they think
- 1:41:22they were responsible. Like that's on
- 1:41:24the extreme end of things, but then the
- 1:41:26next step is is oh, I'm having this
- 1:41:30information. What do I do with it? And
- 1:41:33you know, me in some cases like Pam
- 1:41:35Coronado, I interviewed her for New
- 1:41:38Thinking Allowed and that was how she
- 1:41:40first got into all of these topics and
- 1:41:43she did have a dream about a murder in
- 1:41:48her neighborhood and she did act on it
- 1:41:51and got in touch with law enforcement
- 1:41:54and that was useful to the case. So, you
- 1:41:57know, sometimes it is very useful, but
- 1:41:59then if information is just like
- 1:42:02non-local and it just kind of flows back
- 1:42:05and forth in time, it may have no other
- 1:42:09meaning that we're dreaming about it or
- 1:42:12having a flash of it than it does if you
- 1:42:15happen to walk by your TV set and you're
- 1:42:17seeing some kind of news. You know, just
- 1:42:20because I turn on the news and see
- 1:42:23a topic that doesn't mean I'm
- 1:42:24responsible for it or I have to now take
- 1:42:27any action and same thing if I see news
- 1:42:30in my head that hasn't happened yet. You
- 1:42:33know, there there's always like I think
- 1:42:35people do put too much meaning on it a
- 1:42:38lot of times and it's just know we're
- 1:42:40picking up signals. You know, I know for
- 1:42:43a fact that we pick up on
- 1:42:46we pick up on things telepathically, you
- 1:42:49know, and sometimes we're hearing our
- 1:42:52spouse's thoughts as he's lying asleep
- 1:42:55next to us. Sometimes it's our friend
- 1:42:57across the world or sometimes it's just
- 1:42:59like random chatter and if a person goes
- 1:43:04and takes any little piece of random
- 1:43:06chatter or any flash as you know,
- 1:43:10having special meaning for them, I think
- 1:43:13they're going to be really misguided.
- 1:43:16Sometimes it is special, a special
- 1:43:18message for them, but a lot of times
- 1:43:20it's just random noise or sometimes it
- 1:43:23might even be from some entity out there
- 1:43:26that doesn't isn't really very well
- 1:43:28meaning and that was
- 1:43:30one thing I wanted to talk to you about
- 1:43:32is you know, have you encountered that
- 1:43:34where there's just like information
- 1:43:37coming through the airwaves and it may
- 1:43:39be abusive, it may be negative or nasty
- 1:43:43and it's it's not a special message for
- 1:43:46someone, it's just we happen to like
- 1:43:48almost tune into a channel of people who
- 1:43:51are not speaking all that nicely to each
- 1:43:55other or to us and not everything we
- 1:43:58hear is like a message from God or our
- 1:44:01guides. Like we have to be discerning
- 1:44:03and then how how do we know, you know,
- 1:44:07how to handle it? What are your thoughts
- 1:44:09on that?
- 1:44:11>> Well, I just think it goes back to the
- 1:44:12beginning of the conversation where I
- 1:44:13was sharing about how I was trained and
- 1:44:15I teach
- 1:44:17discernment like you mentioned when we
- 1:44:19receive information
- 1:44:21if we're not working professionally or
- 1:44:23even if we are, but if we're going about
- 1:44:25our daily activities and we see or hear
- 1:44:27something that doesn't seem to be from
- 1:44:29us or we're not sure, is to tune into is
- 1:44:32this mine? Is this somebody else's? Why
- 1:44:34am I receiving this information? Is
- 1:44:36there anything I'm to do with this
- 1:44:38information?
- 1:44:39>> Almost like we witness tests and we
- 1:44:42having discernment and yes, all of that
- 1:44:44is out there.
- 1:44:46It's all out there and absolutely I have
- 1:44:49worked with people where they it's rare
- 1:44:51in my experience where they have some
- 1:44:53type of uh
- 1:44:56sometimes it's benevolent, sometimes
- 1:44:57malevolent entity attachments or thought
- 1:45:01forms that are really serving them very
- 1:45:03poorly in their lives and usually like
- 1:45:06Robert Falconer who's been a guest on
- 1:45:08New Thinking Allowed
- 1:45:10who's a I believe a lead internal family
- 1:45:13systems trainer
- 1:45:15talks about how
- 1:45:18if our
- 1:45:20own thoughts and emotions
- 1:45:23are troubled, we're more likely to
- 1:45:25perceive things as troubling or to
- 1:45:29seemingly attract troubling other
- 1:45:34energies if you will. And that the best
- 1:45:37line of defense is really to
- 1:45:41be a more loving kind person and how do
- 1:45:43you do that if you have unresolved
- 1:45:45grief, trauma, or
- 1:45:48you are angry with somebody and you're
- 1:45:50holding
- 1:45:51resentment to to get support or
- 1:45:55professional help or do what you
- 1:45:57what is necessary for you to heal from
- 1:45:59that and then you're less likely to
- 1:46:05attract or be in those realms that are
- 1:46:08unpleasant. Now, I understand that
- 1:46:11there's many people in the world making
- 1:46:12choices that we don't have a lot of sway
- 1:46:15over, but we can
- 1:46:18show up as our best selves and
- 1:46:22and work within our own consciousness
- 1:46:23because collectively the more that we do
- 1:46:25that, we're going to serve
- 1:46:28the collective
- 1:46:30being that we we all really seem to be.
- 1:46:34>> See, recently I've been having more and
- 1:46:37more clients come who
- 1:46:40feel like they are being stalked and
- 1:46:43that they're being tormented by
- 1:46:46different voices, different
- 1:46:50what they believe to be entities. And
- 1:46:53when somebody approaches me with
- 1:46:55something like that, you know, I'm
- 1:46:58always like, "Okay, we don't know what's
- 1:47:00going on. It could be
- 1:47:02it could be hallucinating, it could be a
- 1:47:04mental health issue, or it could be an
- 1:47:07entity, or something in or could be
- 1:47:10telepathy from someone in their house
- 1:47:12who has negative thoughts. So, we don't
- 1:47:16know until we go in or until I go in and
- 1:47:19take a look. And on occasion, well,
- 1:47:24occasionally I didn't know they were
- 1:47:25struggling with any of this and it came
- 1:47:27out during the reading because I heard
- 1:47:29the same things that they were hearing
- 1:47:32and felt the same things. At other times
- 1:47:34I wasn't sure, but by the end of the
- 1:47:37reading
- 1:47:38some like maybe, you know, halfway
- 1:47:41through suddenly I'm hearing someone
- 1:47:44saying very specific things that are,
- 1:47:47you know, very unpleasant or I'm seeing
- 1:47:49images that the person then is like,
- 1:47:52that is exactly what they have been
- 1:47:54telling me or that's exactly what they
- 1:47:57look like. And then even I have
- 1:48:01a friend who she's actually now worked
- 1:48:04through a lot of this and she's writing
- 1:48:06a book on it, but
- 1:48:09we'll sometimes travel together with
- 1:48:12other clairvoyant friends. And so this
- 1:48:15one friend who well, she she was a
- 1:48:18client and then a student and now our
- 1:48:19friend. So she was experiencing a lot of
- 1:48:22this and she was confused because
- 1:48:24sometimes the entities were saying nasty
- 1:48:27things to her, but at other times they
- 1:48:29were giving her information about the
- 1:48:30future that was very correct. She was in
- 1:48:33my remote viewing class and one day she
- 1:48:36came to class and she said, "Yeah, I I
- 1:48:40didn't get enough sleep last night so I
- 1:48:43didn't do the homework.
- 1:48:45But I had this dream and I drew a
- 1:48:47picture for my dream and she showed me
- 1:48:50the dream picture and it was identical
- 1:48:53to the target picture except it was
- 1:48:56upside down. So like the target was a
- 1:48:59ship and she drew this
- 1:49:02very incredibly detailed picture of the
- 1:49:05ship, but it was upside down and the one
- 1:49:08of the entities had given it to her. So
- 1:49:10she was really struggling with like does
- 1:49:13this is this entity helpful or is it
- 1:49:16not? And when I first worked with her,
- 1:49:20she was one of the people where as I was
- 1:49:22reading her, I started getting these
- 1:49:24waves of like energy through my body and
- 1:49:27these intensive vibrations that she said
- 1:49:30she would feel like when they were
- 1:49:32communicating with her. Well, anyway, we
- 1:49:35fast-forward a couple years, we're at
- 1:49:37this Airbnb with um a couple other
- 1:49:40friends. And as I'm waking up, she's in
- 1:49:43the room next to me. As I'm waking up, I
- 1:49:45see an image in a mirror of a guy like
- 1:49:48he was a very muscular guy, but he
- 1:49:52didn't have any clothes on his upper
- 1:49:54body and his back was turned to me. And
- 1:49:58then I could just see his face a little
- 1:49:59bit, his eyes in the mirror and they
- 1:50:01look very creepy. Well, my our mutual
- 1:50:05friend comes out of her room
- 1:50:07a little bit later and she tells me that
- 1:50:11she kept all all night long seeing an
- 1:50:14image of a half-naked guy with his back
- 1:50:17towards her looking into a mirror. And
- 1:50:19it turns out that that's a frequent
- 1:50:22image that our friend who has these
- 1:50:24entities sees as well. So, three of us
- 1:50:28were confirming the same exact images.
- 1:50:31So, I've been having this where
- 1:50:34clients come to me and so there's this
- 1:50:38confirmation that I'm getting as well
- 1:50:40that, you know, yeah, something's going
- 1:50:42on here. And there's some
- 1:50:44characteristics like the the telepathy,
- 1:50:48the what they're hearing in their head
- 1:50:50is so loud. And the same thing with me,
- 1:50:52like when I've heard these entities,
- 1:50:54it's so loud. It's so clear.
- 1:50:58They show very clear images and there's
- 1:51:00also sensations and feelings that come
- 1:51:03with it. And the other thing that I'll
- 1:51:06say and then I want to hear what you
- 1:51:08think of this. After I I with these
- 1:51:10people, I'll have hitchhiker effects for
- 1:51:13the next couple days, but what I do is
- 1:51:16when I'm hearing them on my own, I will
- 1:51:20just say to them, I'm not going to
- 1:51:22engage. Like I refuse to engage. You
- 1:51:25guys have to get out of here. I don't
- 1:51:27care who you are. I'm not going to
- 1:51:29explore this any further. If I keep
- 1:51:31trying to explore it, then then they
- 1:51:34stick around. But if I just say, okay,
- 1:51:37like I am not going to engage, you got
- 1:51:39to get out of here and I picture a door
- 1:51:41and see them leaving, then then we're
- 1:51:44okay. And for my clients who are able to
- 1:51:47do that and just say, you know, even if
- 1:51:49you're giving me some helpful psychic
- 1:51:51information, I'm not engaging with you.
- 1:51:53I'm not going to listen. Like once these
- 1:51:56entities know you're not going to listen
- 1:51:58to them, they seem to back off. But
- 1:52:00sometimes clients have a hard time doing
- 1:52:02that because they're also excited that
- 1:52:05they're getting like this psychic
- 1:52:07information. So, what are your thoughts
- 1:52:10on all that and have you experienced
- 1:52:12similar things?
- 1:52:14>> There is a whole
- 1:52:17taxonomy of
- 1:52:20entities or perceptions out there.
- 1:52:23Um I honestly think it could be a whole
- 1:52:26other conversation. I think it's a a
- 1:52:28very um
- 1:52:30deep topic and I I know we've been
- 1:52:33talking for a while.
- 1:52:35I
- 1:52:36I think it's in the realm could be in
- 1:52:38the realm of something called spirit
- 1:52:40release meant therapy
- 1:52:42that
- 1:52:43people have written books on. It's
- 1:52:45something that that like I said, I've
- 1:52:47I've definitely come
- 1:52:49in contact with myself and I think that
- 1:52:52there are certain ways that people can
- 1:52:55interact with it.
- 1:52:56And
- 1:52:58and again, I go back to that discernment
- 1:53:01piece of
- 1:53:02who are you? What is this information?
- 1:53:04Why are you here? What do you want? Am I
- 1:53:06to do anything with this?
- 1:53:09In my experience, I'll just briefly
- 1:53:10share one one story with a client where
- 1:53:13they thought they had an entity
- 1:53:14attachment
- 1:53:16that was harmful.
- 1:53:18And when we interacted with it, it was
- 1:53:22actually a loving presence that was
- 1:53:25trying to get their attention and bring
- 1:53:26them information.
- 1:53:28So, I think that sometimes I go back to
- 1:53:30Robert Falconer. I think
- 1:53:32I think it really is a discernment of of
- 1:53:36what is this being?
- 1:53:38Am I seeing it clearly?
- 1:53:41Do I have a filter of my own psychology
- 1:53:43that's overlaying with what's happening
- 1:53:45here that's impacting what I'm
- 1:53:47perceiving? Maybe, maybe not.
- 1:53:49And why am I Why is this coming to me?
- 1:53:53And in this case with this person, there
- 1:53:55was information that was helpful for
- 1:53:57them.
- 1:53:59I'm trained to work with love and light.
- 1:54:02And so, I have found that if
- 1:54:07if I am in a place of fear with a
- 1:54:11particular entity, that it just
- 1:54:14actually, like you were talking about,
- 1:54:16if you give it attention, it just stays
- 1:54:17there or it grows or expands if it's
- 1:54:20malevolent or seemingly malevolent. And
- 1:54:24if we are neutral or curious,
- 1:54:28detached observers, and are And that's
- 1:54:31the That's actually one of the
- 1:54:32fundamental ways that we can work with
- 1:54:34and cultivate our intuition is in
- 1:54:36addition to quieting the mind, is
- 1:54:38becoming a neutral observer so that you
- 1:54:40can really discern on on what you're
- 1:54:42experiencing.
- 1:54:45Then we're going to see more clearly,
- 1:54:47which is what the claires mean. Claire
- 1:54:49audience, claire sentience, it means
- 1:54:51clear seeing. It's not just visual, but
- 1:54:53clear perception. We're clear channels.
- 1:54:55We're using ourselves, our bodies,
- 1:54:57minds, hearts, souls as an instrument of
- 1:55:01clarity.
- 1:55:02And then we can choose what what to do
- 1:55:04with that. And in my experience, the few
- 1:55:08times that there have been, some people
- 1:55:10say dark forces,
- 1:55:12I I feel I've been quite confident with
- 1:55:15it and been able to release it with love
- 1:55:17and light. And in my experience, now
- 1:55:19people might have different experiences,
- 1:55:21but in my experience,
- 1:55:23the entity is always looking for love.
- 1:55:25That has been my experience.
- 1:55:28Some can say, "Oh, they're wanting to
- 1:55:30harm me. They're
- 1:55:32But then I go back to Well, how is your
- 1:55:35psychology? How is your mind? How are
- 1:55:37your emotions?" And for some people,
- 1:55:41it's also
- 1:55:43um I can think of several stories, and
- 1:55:45again, I think this is deserves more
- 1:55:47time,
- 1:55:48that that they had something happening
- 1:55:50in their bedroom at night. Well, for
- 1:55:52them, it was an opportunity for them to
- 1:55:55develop their spiritual intuitive gifts
- 1:55:59in that case. Cuz intuition, you know,
- 1:56:00depending on a person's belief, can
- 1:56:02certainly just be part of psychology. It
- 1:56:04can also be
- 1:56:05in the in the spiritual, if you will,
- 1:56:08depending on how a person frames that.
- 1:56:11And they were able to engage in some
- 1:56:12practices and develop some abilities,
- 1:56:15and then that stopped occurring.
- 1:56:17>> Yeah.
- 1:56:18>> Look, there's a lot more to it because,
- 1:56:20you know, we talk we can there's haunt,
- 1:56:21you know, people talk about hauntings.
- 1:56:23There's
- 1:56:24There's a whole world there. And And
- 1:56:27again, it's a case-by-case situation. I
- 1:56:29don't want to just put a blanket over
- 1:56:31any of this.
- 1:56:33>> Yeah, that's such a good point because I
- 1:56:36always tell my students, you know, if
- 1:56:39your very best friend, who you love so
- 1:56:42much, unexpectedly showed up in your
- 1:56:45room at night and was tickling your feet
- 1:56:48or something, you would be
- 1:56:50really freaked out. You know, it's not
- 1:56:52that they're someone bad that's trying
- 1:56:55to hurt you, but anything shows up when
- 1:56:57you don't expect it and
- 1:56:59don't know what you're encountering
- 1:57:02can seem scarier or shocking.
- 1:57:06But through meditation and then also
- 1:57:08doing the intuitive work we do where we
- 1:57:10were talking about that the other day
- 1:57:12with Geoff even like when we're
- 1:57:13interviewing someone or when we're
- 1:57:15playing music or when we're doing
- 1:57:17readings, we have to be really really
- 1:57:19focused and we're learning how to hold
- 1:57:22some thoughts in our minds and to not
- 1:57:25let other thoughts in. We're being very
- 1:57:27focused. And a lot of people, that's
- 1:57:30something they're
- 1:57:31maybe none of us are born with. I think
- 1:57:33some people maybe just may have you
- 1:57:36know, if they just grew up with quiet
- 1:57:38parents or in a quiet place, maybe they
- 1:57:42have less chatter than other people. But
- 1:57:45people are bombarded with chatter all
- 1:57:48the time and you're not going to be able
- 1:57:50to tell the difference between your own
- 1:57:52thoughts and other thoughts. You know,
- 1:57:55if you tend to have negative self-talk,
- 1:57:58self-criticisms,
- 1:58:00how would you know if there's another
- 1:58:02party coming in? May maybe those
- 1:58:05criticisms are just the voices of the
- 1:58:07people you grew up with or in your
- 1:58:09household, but until you get to a
- 1:58:12baseline of clarity, you're not going to
- 1:58:14be able to tell what's going on. So
- 1:58:17that's the the very first start. And
- 1:58:20then if you suddenly get an intrusive
- 1:58:22thought or even with your mood, you
- 1:58:25know, if you tend to be pretty even keel
- 1:58:27and then suddenly you just have this
- 1:58:30feeling like, "Oh my god, I'm so
- 1:58:31depressed. I want to kill myself." It's
- 1:58:34like, "Okay, where did that come from?"
- 1:58:36You know, that's pretty intense. That's
- 1:58:39different than you know, someone who's
- 1:58:41always having those thoughts. So getting
- 1:58:43to that baseline with all these
- 1:58:45wonderful practices that we have and you
- 1:58:48know, so many people talk about on New
- 1:58:50Thinking Allowed,
- 1:58:52that's going to, you know, help people
- 1:58:53get to the right state of mind to then
- 1:58:56be able to discern these things.
- 1:59:00Well, thank you so much. I know this has
- 1:59:03been a long conversation.
- 1:59:06>> It's been my pleasure, Deborah.
- 1:59:08>> And there's so much more we could talk
- 1:59:10about, so maybe we could come back and
- 1:59:13see what comments people have who
- 1:59:16watched the interview and find out what
- 1:59:19else people would like to know about
- 1:59:21with these topics and then maybe we can
- 1:59:23address some of those in another
- 1:59:25interview down the line.
- 1:59:28>> I would be very happy to do that.
