What's New

School's back and Fall is approaching! I can't believe kids start school in August now! My son started last week! However, it's still warm in my part of the world so I'm very grateful for getting outside as long as the weather stays nice. Fall is one of my favorite seasons. Watching the leaves turn and smelling the fresh crisp Fall air is magickal. There is something to look foward to in every season.

It's official! I have new space with Renaissance Clinique in Providence, RI. Spiritual Compass now has a home base! I am available for Energy Healing Sessions and am offering numerous classes. Come visit or contact me to schedule an appointment! See my calendar for the many upcoming classes.

My Husband, Don, and I are now On the Air with our new radio show All We Are. We started our first show with a bang. We interviewed Peggy Black of www.MorningMessages.com. It was a verrrry rocky start. Technical difficulties had me switching phones and causing a rucus, all on the air. Humbling and funny all at once. But it ended quite nicely and Peggy was wonderful and graceful! A great show. If you missed it click here.

And, finally, I'm undergoing a major web site redesign! I can't believe it, but the message is loud and clear from the Divine. It's necessary for it to feel more spacious and clean. I have designed a cleaner navigation and design. You will see the new design in a few months.

Please check back here for monthly updates and as always you can see past newsletters in the archives. Also, go here to check out the newest articles I've added to date!

Who's Really Right Anyway?

"I'm right." "No, I'm right!" <-- I see this happen often. And I do my best not to fall victim to this judgment as well. We each have a perspective or opinion about most anything. And we each are right. Our way of seeing something is right to us.

But even if we really *are* right when it comes down to the facts and we relay these facts in a calm manner....and the opposing person still refuses to believe us, is it worth it? Is it worth arguing till you are found "right"? Red in the face, energy drained, unhappy, frustrated and angry. Negative energy boiling.

Eventually you may answer "no" to this question or you may not. Both answers are right in the moment of where you are in your life. We each have filters and perspectives that we need to be conscious of and release. This is part of Ascension. A beautiful phrase Denise Linn has said is: "I can be right, or I can have Life Force."

Let it go.

"And know that as you progress through your ascension process, your inner child and your ego begin to diminish. In this way, the process becomes much, much easier as time goes on. You will arrive at a place, if you haven't already, where
you will be able to simply observe what is going on within you from the outside."
~ Karen Bishop

We do not need to allow anothers emotions to affect us anymore. We do not need to ride the waves of emotions that another may try to put us on with them. Believe me, I know. I've done it. I have experienced it, I've put others through it and I've been put through it. There is not one person on this planet that hasn't done this a trillion time or rode that wave with another. We are human.

As we ascend, we progressively move away from being *in* anothers emotions and start to stand back and just observe. Suddenly you can see and feel a little bit more of the bigger picture and suddenly you can just see that "It's not good. It's not bad. It just is."

Eckhart Tolle is able to do this now from a massive quick awakening. For the majority of us we will get to this wonderful place in a slow but balance progression. We may get it intellectually and love the sound of it, but will not feel it. Later we start to understand it on a deeper level but may still not be quite there. Then one day you start to feel it from your entire being. You are the observer.

You can choose to play a part or not. You can choose to breathe deeply in every moment. Repeat the mantra "It's not good. It's not bad. It's just is." Utter freedom ensues as you naturally are in this state. In this state you can remain in your full power, not weakened; your life force in tact. You can send beautiful energy of unconditional love to those around you and watch their progression that comes in their own time.

There are so many levels to this ascension process. I am still bouncing back and forth from each of these states and figuring out my balance. With love and patience we will all ascend to these higher ways of being.

Enjoy loving connections during these ascension times!

Follow your bliss,

Message from My Seven Angels

Easily Driven to Distraction

I know that distractions are in my daily life constantly! We can be easily distracted from our goals and desires. When you have a desire you are working to manifest, watch those distractions. I know this has been a huge challenge for me. The Angels have been bringing this up with me more this week than ever!

It's so easy to be distracted. The electronic distractions are unbelievable. From TV, Home Phone, Cell Phone, Ipod's, pagers, to Computers with Instant Messengers and Email! It's any wonder we get anything tangible accomplished. These gadgets are to make our life easier and enrich our lives, not rip us away from authentic connections and human contact.

We also need to focus. Distractions can build up and take away our focus from our true intentions. The Angels want us to remember that yes, we must let go of what we desire once we have made the request, put forth the right amount of energy and have given gratitude. But we must know that putting forth the right amount of energy takes more than just a quick thought. If you think of a desire and then move on quickly to the next thought or distraction (from the phone, television, to a new thought or idea) you may not have given this enough focus and attention it requires to manifest.

Remember what Abraham-Hicks has said time and again: 17 seconds is all it takes! Just focus with all your energy (visualize, think and feel the positive desire you choose) as if it's happening right now in this very moment. It actually IS happening in this very moment and then your magic takes hold for the Universe to manifest. If you can bring your focus up to 68 seconds you've quadrupled your power. These 68 seconds are equivalent to working 2,000 man hours! I'd say 68 seconds are definitely worth whatever your desire is.

Move away from Electronic distractions. Commune with nature. When in nature you can more easily hear your soul's call. No longer ignoring through distraction. And you can hear the Angels more clearly. Everything falls away. Look up. A beautiful blue sky, stars and moon. An Ocean. A forest. Your life is waiting. Your soul is calling. Step outside and breathe.

When you feel overly distracted and nothing seems to be working the way you desire, take a moment. Go outside, get in touch with nature again. Breathe in fresh air. Ground yourself to the Earth and let go of those worries. Leave the cell phone and IPod at home this time. Listen to your intuition and feel your desire, one desire at a time. Focus on only one. And really feel it with all of your being. If you can't get outside, just get to a place where you are free of distraction and can take a few minutes for yourself for this practice. You will rejuvenate on all levels as you give yourself time to breathe and focus. As you do this your desires manifest that much more quickly, that much more smoothly and that much more powerfully.

Distractions happen to me often. Just when I think I've set my intention for a desire, I've gone through it too quickly in order to get to the next thing on my list. I am constantly being reminded to take time. There is no rush; especially when it comes to what we truly desire. But remember Time and Space is of no essence. They do not really exist. We can slow time and speed it up. We can be with someone who is on the other side of the world in mere moments if we choose. So relax, breathe and focus one intention at time. The Angels can more easily assist us as we take the time to be clear, listen and focus on our desires one beautiful feeling at a time.

“Whether we avoid something because it scares us or bores us, or because we think it will force a change we're not ready for, putting it off only creates obstacles for us. On the other hand, facing the task at hand, no matter how onerous, creates flow in our lives and allows us to grow.” ~ Daily OM

It's quite possible that you are distracted from really working on a specific desire because you are scared of it never coming, so in that sense you have already manifested it *not* coming. Maybe you are scared it *will* come so you don't take the time to really help it along to fruition. But in the end your desire is your desire. Fear is nothing till you give it power. If you give it power it will create the fearful event you don't want. Take the ego and fear out of the equation. Listen only to what makes you happiest and your higher self and Angels. All positive information flows more easily to you when you are in a neutral state of mind. Have a wish, but allowing it to either be there or not. It either is or it is not. It will either happen or it will not. It matters not, as long as you are always in your joy and happiness. Sharing love and bliss with those around you in whatever way you desire is all there is.

Remember, the Angels are with you and send you lots and lots of love every day!

Favorite Spiritual Movie of the Month:

Soul Masters Movie
This movie is fantastic. And I have to admit, I haven't even watched the entire thing yet! The healing energy emanates from the movie as you watch. Even prior to watching the movie I watched the clips online and I could feel it then. They teach their integrated healing methods which as they say is: "Heart touch heart. Soul touch soul." I feel that my ascension has brought me to different methods used here. However, I know there is much more to learn. So enjoy getting in touch with your soul while watching.
