How Can We Stay Centered with Loved Ones? (Radiance Experience

Can You Stay CENTERED with Loved Ones When the Conversation Gets Challenging?

Let’s say you’re at an outdoor cafe with a family member sipping your favorite drink, and they say something that rubs you the wrong way. A lot. Perhaps they gossiped about another family member, or talked up a conspiracy theory that doesn’t align with you... what do you do?

Obviously, you don’t want to stop LOVING them... they are someone who you love spending time with...

Can you strip out that *ribbon of discord* while holding your vibe high and stay true to yourself? If so, what’s your secret? For me, remembering Who I Am and Who They (truly) Are helps a lot ♥What do you do? readers in the Facebook group The Radiance Experience: #doingthework We asked our

Frances PullinI, personally, breathe a little deeper and allow their comments. We are all unique unto ourselves. Keeping in mind their goodness shines at other times and knowing there is a reason for our conversation. Later, I work on the why. Love shines this way. ����♥

Catherine Ibarra I remind myself that other humans, even loved ones and close friends, are under absolutely no obligation to meet my expectations. Each of us has a different journey and has as such is entitled to different opinions, needs and desires, resulting in different behavior. They do not require my blessing or approval. Zulmara Maria I try to give them space to be who they are and to live the story they need to live and experience the journey they need to experience. I am a recovering “fixer” in my family, so I smile, listen respectively, do not argue and sometimes offer my perspective and sometimes not… reminding myself: THIS is their journey and it does not have to be lived, understood or experienced my way. With that said, for the white supremacists, haters, and Trump supporters in my family, I don’t sit down and have a lot of cups of coffee with them...I just send them love from afar.

John Holland “Ribbon of discord.” Love that. All people are in different places mentally emotionally and physically. Let them grow at their pace and you worry about growing at your own pace. We need to be reminded of this truth from time to time that we may be more tolerant and understanding. When I’m triggered, my fathers words come into my mind “think twice before you speak and three times before you act.”

“I would prefer to listen to something new about you. About your goals, dreams, books, vacations. Something positive. I am really working on depositing into my spiritual bank”

Lisa StuhleyBREATHE… It took me a while to let it go and not try to fix their head space… Either my choice, or by nature, the process of like attracts like.

Daniel Olexa CIht-PccI let them be them and I happily cut ties if their vibe is dragging mine down. Self-care and protection comes first. They can live their life without me in it, and I can live my life without them, Emelia Cuevas I have been saying lately, “That might be true for you but it isn’t for me.” They will then start to argue their belief and I follow with, “I love you and respect your belief (your choice) but that does not resonate with my truth.” So far it has work. It ends there and we continue to enjoy our drink and company. When they talk bad about someone, I say, “It is not necessary for me to know....“ They will insist on their story and I will say, “I would prefer to listen to something new about you. About your goals, dreams, books, vacations. Something positive. I am really working on depositing into my spiritual bank.” All with a smile while I am sending love; shifting the vibration in our space together.

Amaya VictoriaI stay silent and allow them to be. If it is a personal offense that needs addressing, I will do so. Otherwise, I keep my focus on their goodness. Even if distance occurs. Either my choice, or by nature, the process of like attracts like.

How Can I Connect With My Guides?

By Deirdre Selby-Gius

Sitting quietly, I prepare to do a reading for a client. I know that it is not I who will know what to tell them; I need to tap into otherworldly energies, My Higher Self, Angels, Spirit Guides… and even more importantly, those that will be brought in by the person I am to work with. Connecting with their essence is essential to bringing in a true and honest reading that will resonate.

How do you find your angels, your guides? The spirits that are here to help you on your journey? Sometimes, when we are looking, these beings can seem so elusive and hard to catch, even for those of us who know that they are real. It is easy to bandy about words like meditate and feel into___… but it’s harder to do it. For me, it has really come down to trust. The hardest part of working with the invisible is trusting that it is actually there. And I do that well.

Angels, Spirit Guides, The Higher Self... each of these terms refers to something that gives us information that will usually come through as simply a knowing without explanation. And believing in its validity, knowing that we are not daydreaming, imagining, or suffering delusions is crucial.

So, sit down quietly… Allow yourself to daydream and ask that your Spirit Guides come in. It is best if you have a question that you wish to ask them, preferably something not too complicated or impactful at first… but not too superficial either. A good choice of question might be to ask them individually about their job, why they are with you, and what area of life they help you to navigate. Everyone loves to talk about themselves, and our guides are no different. Understanding their “mission” would be important information for you to have, so this is a valid inquiry. When an answer comes to you, don’t second guess yourself and think you are making it up, but trust your inner voice and understand that a Guide has shown up and is sharing information with you. Know that you have started down the path of opening communication, and with further attempts further progress can be made, they want to be in contact. When you, and your Angels and Guides form a strong working relationship, you are on your path towards living and working your blueprint, the primary reason you are here.

The Tortie Who Shocked The

Animal Communicator By Kara of Pet’s Eye View

Many people come to me for help communicating with an animal who has crossed over. I don’t know people’s spiritual beliefs, so I rarely bring up reincarnation, but there are times where I have zero choice.

I was called to read a dog, Callie, and her friend Laila, a proud black and orange Tortie who had passed some nine weeks before. Before I even turned on my Zoom, the dog was yammering that she needed a new cat. Then, I met the guardians, Lauren and Toby. I informed them that Callie missed her cat friend very much, but wanted a new one to take care of - RIGHT NOW.

This reaction is uncommon in a dog who has recently lost an animal friend, but Callie was insistent. Next, the deceased Laila popped in, telling me how much she missed Lauren and Toby, and her dog’s tail. However, she was already HERE, ready to come back and live with them again, so could they please HURRY and go get her?

“Uh, oh,” I thought. “What if they don’t believe in reincarnation?” So I asked Laila, “What if they cannot or do not want a cat right now?” Ever the diva, Laila just gave me a look and said, “Well, then, I’ll have another life, but I’d RATHER they just find me.” I communicated this to her people. I explained that this is rare, that I have talked to thousands of pets, and, as I have detailed in Radiance before, only perhaps 20 percent can say they will reincarnate, and it will be many years down the road. “How will we know?” Lauren asked. Her fear of choosing the wrong cat to bring home made sense. I went back into meditation. I saw a low-slung building with awnings on the outside. Laila helpfully came in and showed me that she has returned as a dilute tortie -- NOT black and orange, as she had been before, but gray, orange and white. This is an unusual look. I also felt that Lauren would not find the image on a website. She would need to go in person to find her.

A few days later, Lauren messaged me. She had called a local shelter with no images on its website. The building is low and has awnings on the windows. They had a set of 8-week-old kittens which included a single, female dilute Tortie. Lauren and Toby visited with no expectations, but when the kitten crawled into her lap, they knew Laila had been telling the truth.

And that is how a dead cat shocked an animal communicator!

The oldest Sequoia Tree is over 3,200 years old. The oldest tree on earth is a Spruce growing in Sweden. Its age? 9,550 years old. Twice that of the Egyptian pyramids of Giza. Trees communicate with each other via their root systems, and send nutrients to other trees within their group who are in need. They are living, sentient beings with stories to tell and wisdom to share. We cut them down to create the paper to make the books to share our knowledge.
