By Carol J. Uchytil

With less than 7 hours left of the 2008 I sit down to pen my last column of the year. 2008 has been an exciting year of discovery, change, learning curves, growth, new friendships, treasured moments with friends and family and extreme gratitude.

others. Through the contributions of our advertisers we are able to create The Violet Ray Magazine and for this we send a Big Thank You out to them.

On Christmas day, my mother and I took on the project of creating our vision boards. After several hours of cutting out pictures and words from magazines we were ready to carefully place them on our boards. I helped my mom put her board together first since I was so pleased she was up to this challenge. Her board was 4 feet wide by 3 feet tall. She was very pleased with the outcome and felt that this would help her with her health goals.

Several days earlier I had started collecting my words and pictures. After my mother's board was complete, I started on mine. Well I must say that I had so much fun creating my vision board. The end result was 4 feet wide by 6 feet tall. I have it strategically placed in my office where I can see it, sit in front of it and joyfully go over every word, picture, feeling, and sensation. Look out 2009!

A couple days later my brother, sister in-law and nephew arrived from Houston, Texas. We opened each other's cards and gifts after they were settled in and once again I was taken back with such gratitude for the opportunity to spend this time with them. This year is very special since over the past 25 years we have spent so few Christmas's together due to the distance barrier between us. So tomorrow on New Years day we will have our turkey supper together and bring in the year with thanks.

We express gratitude and appreciation to our interactive columnists, contributors and artists who continue to inspire, awaken and touch the lives of January 2009

Ursa Major, Great Bear of the Heavens. Here is how you found the path of the Milky Way into the heavens, so that you could hear the voice of the Great Spirit. A spider whispered to me that the path was made on the snow covered ground and she said that it transformed into stars as you rose higher, higher. She told me that you were wounded from a battle and when your image dips low to the ground in the autumn, drops of your blood turn the leaves gold, copper and red.

Your Spirit Guide

By Danielle Lee Designated at birth, your spirit guide is a divinely essential element within the blueprint of your life.

Painstaking amounts of spiritual education and superior knowledge are embedded into the very luminescent fabric of your guide's soul. Chosen only for you, they embark on a mission of the utmost unselfishness and predestined path of spiritual enlightenment. They have bravely chosen to blissfully sacrifice their time, patience and existence to guide and love you throughout your journey on the earthly plane of existence.

A spirit guide was indeed a human being, flesh and blood, existing upon the earth at one point in their eternity. It was a conscious and deliberate choice for them to side with you as your sidekick, presenting you to the human world with pride and accomplishment as their chosen hero.

Forever proud and dauntless in their task as guide and divine interpreter, spirit guides try desperately to maintain your path of spirituality and lead you through your predetermined glories and hardships upon earth.

They tirelessly, and sometimes with remorse, present you with life lessons that you yourself have decided previously to embarking on the human journey. They help you lovingly every moment of every day to succeed in learning your precious, yet sometimes painful and repetitive, spiritual lessons.

they do not wish to see you fail time and time again due to lack of enlightenment on the physical realm.

Thankfully, spirit guides are consistently loving and have unending patience for the one they love as though it were their only earth-born child. They peacefully and lovingly listen to your goals and wishes, they considerately and passionately love the ideals and people that you love, they praise and glorify your every accomplishment, they weep and grieve with every pain and suffering that you must endure.

Never forget this glorious and unselfish being, filled with light and divine love, designated and devoted to only you and your spiritual development. This wondrous and wise entity who cried tears of joy as you entered into the earthly dimension and who will weep mixed tears of sadness and relief for you as leave the harsh human realm to return to your rightful, eternal home. They will be the first to greet you and lead you back to the light of One.

Danielle Lee is a natural psychic medium and paranormal investigator, has an avid and instinctive curiosity for the strange and unknown. She and a group of ghost enthusiasts investigate homes and locations for suspected paranormal activities and try to obtain proof of the afterlife. She is currently working on a book pertaining to her ghostly and psychic experiences.

Her articles have appeared in online sites such as UFO Digest, Paranormal News, The Anomalist, The Debris Field and many others. Recently her Ghost Hunting Etiquette 101 article has been published by Sci-Fi channel’s Ghost Hunters TAPS (The Atlantic Paranormal Society) Paramagazine.

In between chasing her kids and cleaning, she has been known to do many psychic readings for others in need of spiritual guidance. Her abilities include clairvoyance, clairsentience, medical intuition and empathic intuition.

Read more of Danielle’s work at http://thespiritguide.wordpress.com/

In this day and age, these modern wingless angels are all but ignored and denied on a regular, if not alarming, basis. Hundreds of years ago, people were much more aware of their soul and their purpose in the dance of the divine, but nowadays, spiritual oneness has taken a sad backseat to materialism and narcissism.

Suggesting, nudging and loving pushes in the right direction, courtesy of your guide, are blatantly ignored in favor of selfishness and desire for perfection of the physical self. This does sadden your guide immensely, January 2009

Essential versus Fragrance Oils Part 1: What is a Pure Essential Oil?

By Klaus Ferlow

While Canadians are familiar with synthetic fragrance oils, by and large, they have little or no knowledge about therapeutic health benefits of genuine, pure essential oils. Unlike North America, in Europe, high quality botanical plant derived essential oils are prescribed for internal use by medical doctors in hospitals. In the last decade essential oils have become a popular item, sold everywhere, which raises the question, “Does the consumer really know what they are getting?”

What is A Genuine Pure Essential Oil? Essential oils are more then merely plant secretions.

The evaporation of essences from plant surface is a defence mechanism against infection by bacteria, fungi and pests. Aromatic plants have a protective aura of scent, just as all living things have an aura light. This aromatic aura also protects plants from excesses of heat and cold.

To qualify as an essential oil, it must be 100% natural, preferable harvested from certified organic plants or wild crafted, and free of herbicides, pesticides and chemical fertilizer. A description of the biochemical compounds (using gas chromatography and mass spectrometry) will confirm if an oil is 100% authentic and contaminant-free. There are five different processes for making essential oils: - Steam distillation (this method produces the highest quality oil, but it must be slow and prolonged - Solvent extraction - Expression - Maceration - Enfleurage

Assessing Quality To assess quality, the label and/or therapeutic fact sheet should have these items listed: Complete Latin name, genus and species The distilled part: it is vital to know which of the plant (flower, leaf, bark etc.) has been distilled The chemotype: recognized internationally, and widely used in scientific publications, chemotypes, are associated with the Latin scientific denomination,

allows the perfect comprehension of the mode of action of an essential oil, so an oil can be used correctly. The type of soil, altitude, sunlight, climate, and surrounding plant population are all elements that influence the essence manufactured by the plant.

The Price All essential oils are not created equal. The price reflects many factors, such as the number of kilos of plant materials needed to make an essential oil, which is why they are sold in bottles of 5, 10 or 15 ml only.

Some oils are even sold by the drop. I.E. a 1 kilo (approx. 1 litre) requires: 6 to 7 kg of clove flower buds, 50 kg of lavendin, 150 kg of true lavender, or 3500 – 4000 kg of Damask flower rose (1 hectare of roses)!

Beneath the breath of the Buffalo in a realm of safety, I unleash, unhinge seeds of words which may or may not grow; Dreams of you have chosen to take a form, now, surrendered to manifest; committed now to memory.

Old Confusion

By Shelley Erickson For most of the last few weeks, I have been visited by an uninvited guest, named Confusion. I blamed her visit on what was happening outside me, but it really all started inside. It was a vicious circle. What I thought about, I got more of, and what I got more of, I thought more about, and the more I thought about it ‌.. Well, you know how that goes.

Like a small child being ignored, Confusion stamped her feet when I thought I could put her in the corner, hoping she would go away; twas not the case. About that time I started getting nauseated; she even insisted I stay home from work. Of course continuing on my new exercise routine was out of the question. She knew that if I went for a walk, my head would begin to clear and she would be kicked out of her comfy old chair. There was no ignoring her; I found when I did she tended to bring home her nasty friends, Resentful and Victim too!

society? And who is the friend I am most comfortable with anyway, Pride or Peace?

I have begun to realize that when I am gripped with the need for guarantees in my life it is because I have opened the door to Fear, and have allowed her and old friends merrymaking in my head. The fog lifts quickly when I really understand in my heart that I am one with all. That each and every one of us is doing the best we can at each moment. I am no longer afraid of the future, for Love is always there to lead when I remember to get myself out of the way. The sun shines brightly when Acceptance is my mentor. Funny thing I notice about my friends, when I am accepting of them, I find they are more accepting of me. Or is it I am more accepting of me?

Please feel free to share your thoughts with Shelley about her article by emailing her at sserick@telusplanet.com

Little by little I began to feel Peace slip in by way of the shadows; Love filtered through the drawn shades; Joy even danced across my room every once in a while.

Acceptance stood in the doorway with her hands on her hips, eye brows raised as if I dare question her authority again. I shall not today; and hopefully not tomorrow lest I fancy another visit with old Confusion again.

Slowly through the fog, I began to realize it was Expectation that invited Confusion to disrupt my contented life. I can look back and say, even though this was a most uncomfortable visit, it was a great opportunity for me; for old Confusion made me ask some new questions about myself.

Today I choose to entertain Presence instead, knowing that if for one reason or another I let Confusion creep in, it is of my own doing. For I can change what it is I am feeling by changing what it is I am thinking. I can change what I allow to affect me by paying attention to what meaning I allot to it, always asking where my original thought came from‌ my authentic self or January 2009

The First Time

By Lori Balch Let me ask you a quick question? Would you consider yourself open-minded? Well, of course you do!

Consider this. What if there 'were no accidents'?

Is it possible that perchance your eyes were meant to peruse these words today? Like the time you didn't feel like going out with friends, but ended up meeting and marrying the man of your dreams, or the time you opted out of lunch with work mates only to find yourself browsing an old bookstore and finding the book you had given up all hope of finding. It makes you wonder; doesn't it?

So, I invite you to read on, who knows, you just might find something here that tickles your soul, or at very least entertains your curiosity.

They said anyone could do it. I, of course, had my doubts. I assumed that channeling was exclusive to the chosen few, the gifted, those belonging to the private club. Never, ever, did I think it was for the curious and inexperienced, like me.

Lee Carrol describes channeling as "the word of Spirit (or God) as given to a human or humans for their enlightenment and information." (Lee Carrol, in 'A New Dispensation, Plain Talk for Confusing Times', Kryon Book Ten). Recorded history tells us of many who have channeled. The most famous, of course, was Edgar Cayce, known as 'The Sleeping Prophet'. Today there are over 14,000 of his readings on file at the Cayce Foundation--the Association of Research and Enlightenment in Virginia Beach.

'Channeling is a skill that can be learned,' were the first words I read in 'Opening to Channel' by Sanaya Roman and Duane Packer. The owner of the little store literally placed the soft paperback in my hand as she whispered, "This is the book you need." Crinkling my brows, I wondered what she knew. Curious, I purchased the book.

I hurried home with my new treasure and at once began to read. I shoved each word into my brain like food to a starving man, taking little time to taste its flavor. I read the background information and then studied the process. Before I knew it, the journey had begun.

January 2009

Focus and Concentration The formula seemed simple and uncomplicated.

Learning to quiet the mind was something I did often in meditation, so swiftly I graduated to the next step. This involved enhancing one's focus and concentration.

Holding my favorite crystal, I directed all thoughts toward achieving a relaxed state.

Attuning Next I would expand my skills at attuning to life force energy by getting to know the silky red petals of the Petunia plant I had recently purchased for my garden.

I was learning to feel its life form and energy. I love to garden; but clearly, I had never established such an intimate bond with my flowers before. I half expected it to open up and hug me.

Personal Trance Posture and Position Finally, I would learn to develop my personal trance posture and position. Without question, the most difficult step of all. This involved observing the stillness within, while experiencing and maintaining a sense of love and compassion--beyond the norm.

Learning to feel centered, loving, balanced, and open, for the duration of the exercise.

With practice, I felt I had passed the required tests that preceded each level and was excited to begin. The authors said that I would feel a great sense of compassion as my guides joined with me and began to channel verbally using my vocal cords. I prepared as instructed and attempted several times. Nothing happened.

Not one to give up without a good fight, I knew there had to be another way. I realized that either consciously or subconsciously I had decided that this mode of communication was not going to work for me.

Somehow I was blocking the process. Back to the drawing board, I went in search of a Plan B. Plan B The tools to this alternate mode of communication

The First Time continued.... were simple; all I needed was a sharp pencil and a blank piece of paper. I prepared as before, but this time I was armed with my trusty pencil resting lightly between my fingers. If the thing was going to move, it sure wasn't getting any help from me.

Time stood still as I lingered quietly in this unfamiliar space. I seemed to be experiencing a heightened state of consciousness. Strange however, I could still feel the delicate, soft fur of my faithful canine companions as they slumbered peacefully by my side.

Through my open window, I was aware of the angry chatter of squirrels as they went about the business of protecting their young, and I could smell the sweet fragrance of freshly cut grass from the park across the street.

Contact. It was subtle at first, like fresh rain dancing on my skin. A warm tingling began in my upper arm and radiated lovingly down my fingertips. Without a doubt, I knew this encounter was genuine. That solitary and unbelievably magical moment, when one single grain of sand slipped unnoticed through the hourglass, will forever be edged in my mind.

Ever so gently, I felt the pencil right itself in my hand.

It was like something was seeing and feeling the world with me. Soon the energies grew in intensity and my hand began to shake uncontrollably, but with that, the pencil began to move. It took off like a shopper on bargain day at the supermarket.

My hand moved erratically across the paper as it dragged the pencil along, creating lines and circles. A euphoric smile broke free on my face and through closed eyes, tears ran tenderly down my flushed cheeks. In the stillness I sat in wonder.

I had made contact, but with who or what? Incredible feelings coursed through me as I opened my eyes and looked at the paper. The little drawing resembled an old map of the world. The lines were soft, yet glowed with love. I grinned as I hid my secret away in a drawer.

I made a point of finding time daily to make the connection with what I felt was a spirit friend. In short time, the lines transformed themselves into written words and I was given a name. In plain language I learned that I was communicating with an individual energy that was part of a larger group or vibration.

Within a month I was guided to use my 'writing machine', and the words came easily, filling pages and pages of typewritten notes.

I have to confess; at first my ego reared its ugly head and tried to convince me that I had been chosen for greatness. Thankfully, I was reminded that every single one of us is meant for greatness. We merely have to re-member who we are and why we have come. I have recognized that I was not 'chosen,' but that I chose to make this happen. I am still trying to understand what purpose this all serves for me. The words are sometimes new, but often times a gentle reminder of my life purpose.

I believe we ALL have access to this sacred place. We simply have to make the choice and ultimately the effort, to create the link. 'Anyone can do it,' so why not try; it just might be the journey you were meant to take. Remember; 'there are no accidents'.

I tried the same process again a few days later and to my great joy and with ease, I experienced the same sensations; but this time the energies seemed even more passionate. With more control and purpose, bigger and bolder strokes appeared. It seemed the energies were melding with mine. We were learning to work together.

Spirit Tracks

By John McIntosh

Love Divine

The Rise of Peace

No thought enters our mind that we have not invited.

We are at the advent of a powerful new vibration.

Many of us have already felt Its influence,

We bind or free our self choosing fearful reaction, or loving action.

And wait with joyous expectation as this Light now floods our world.

We save or condemn our self with our every thought.

May each of us surrender our spirit to this Loving frequency that we may shine away every remaining dark corner.

When finally we surrender all 'choice' to the One who knows...

We are pierced

by Love Divine and the shadows of a long cold dream dissolve.

Much love on the path you have chosen,

Blessings,

~ Please pass on as you are guided ~

Within the Wave Ivonne P lankey Intuitive Energy Work

403-6 619-2 2116

email: info@withinthewave.net www.withinthewave.net Multicultural Blessing Born to a Chilean social worker and an American lay missionary, Ivonne has had the rich experience of a multicultural upbringing. Exiled from Chile during a military coup, her family relocated to Mexico in the early seventies, where she grew up on the grounds of a unique ecumenical retreat centre that hosted hundreds of people each year. Her religious family background was steeped in her parent's dedication to social justice and human rights within the progressive Catholic Church, and Ivonne always felt the full freedom to explore many avenues of spiritual insight and loved the study of comparative religion. The family approach to health took full advantage of the many options available in Mexico, combining homeopathy, Chinese medicine, and herbalism. The "alternative" was the norm.

Blessed with the support of a network of intuitive practitioners over the years, Ivonne began a path of self-discovery in her early teens, often giving voice to her journey through songwriting. After completing a degree in Latin American Studies in Northern California, she returned to Mexico with her partner and married in 1994.

The pregnancy and birth of her first child brought forth a profound healing opportunity through the spiritual connection between mother and child. The importance of living that bond consciously blossomed further with the birth of her second child. Their delivery by a homeopathic midwife fueled a growing interest in becoming an alternative health practitioner. Ivonne became fixated with the idea of studying naturopathy and began to lose touch with the gift of living in the moment...then God stepped in.

In 1998 a severe illness abruptly separated her from her family for the first time ever, placing her firmly in the role of receiver. Through a convalescence period of nearly a year, Ivonne discovered the many lessons of the experience as she learned about non-judgement, openness, patience, and deep, unconditional love. One

January 2009

of the greatest gifts was her shift into energetic and intuitive healing, a journey that continues to unfold to this day.

She and her family moved to Calgary, Alberta in 2002.

Spirit has continued to guide her, presenting a myriad of connections and opportunities to further her own learning.

Ivonne and Her Healing Style Becoming more and more aware of just what energy is and how it relates to our quest for a centered and meaningful life, Ivonne became disillusioned with the human limitations imposed on some healing traditions and modalities. Opting to learn from the lessons and teachers placed in her path over the years, she has integrated only what has served her. This has freed her to keep the work simple, using intuition as a guide with healing energy.

Ivonne has formal training in Reiki, Massage Therapy, CranioSacral Therapy, Somato Emotional Release, Qualitative Healing for the Whole Human Being, and Matrix Energetics, among others. Seeking always to uncover a deeper truth, and with her intuition firmly based in integrity, Ivonne has blended modalities, added what Spirit brings in the moment, and created a workable and effective healing flow for her clients.

Every one of Ivonne's sessions is different as she models them to match the clients' needs. She allows the energy to flow naturally and facilitates a powerful healing energetic experience. She has worked hard to learn how to be balanced and grounded in the moment, and strives to create a sacred space for people to connect with their own healing source on a physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual level. Looking into the truth of your experience takes courage; being willing to learn the lesson and move on requires presence and compassion. Ivonne encourages and teaches others to become more grounded and aware.

Ministerial Training Since 2007, Ivonne has been training to become a Minister with the Universal Church of the Master, a non-denominational organization that recognizes the unique nature of the individual spiritual path beyond any one religion or doctrine and encourages the development of intuitive perception and guidance. Sensing the deeper spiritual layers of any healing work or modality, she incorporates spiritual counseling into her work, focusing her intent on service, integrity, and genuineness.

Ivonne gratefully views every session as an opportunity to grow for all involved. Inner work teaches that we serve as sacred mirrors for one another along the spiritual path.

Website: www.livingenergy.ca Email: livingenergynow@yahoo.ca Nicola Elliott Lapierre is an Intuitive Holistic Practitioner located in Calgary, Alberta. Nicola developed an interest in healing with energy therapies and alternative treatments as a result of her own health challenges. In her early twenties she developed Grave's Disease (over-active Thyroid). The doctors tried for two years to create balance in Nicola's body but were not succeeding.

A family friend who does remote healing stepped in allowing Nicola to heal which also created a spiritual awakening.

Approximately 10 years later Nicola developed Celiac Disease with associated severe depression. This time her connection to Spirit allowed her to intuit how to heal herself. Then in early 2008 Nicola was diagnosed with Osteosarcoma, a cancerous bone tumour located in her shin. Once again a major health challenge served to further Nicola's growth and understanding of healing and how the mind can be powerful tool in this process.

With over twenty years of study and practice in various healing arts and intuitive development Nicola developed her own style of energy healing that she calls Intuitive Healing.

Intuitive Healing utilizes the intuitive senses through remote viewing to gather information from the energy and physical bodies. Energy corrections and recommendations are made based on imbalances detected in the reading.

Nicola offers a Workshop Series in Intuitive Healing and offers private sessions that combine this process with the Yuen Method™ developed by Dr. Kam Yuen.

Knowledge Brings Confidence

email: info@corarennie.com www.corarennie.com At Home In Winnipeg Her life is busy, and yet this young mom finds time to study so she can bring benefit to her friends, family and community. Cora Rennie begins her story in 2004 when she was expecting her second child. She visited a Chiropractor who did muscle testing with her and was intrigued by the practice, which opened a whole new door for her - to the energies of the body, and the concepts of natural healing in general.

After her son was born, she struggled with what she now knows was Post-Partum Depression, and a throw-back to the experience of colic with her firstborn. She felt challenged emotionally, spiritually and mentally, and in her search for wellness (and without having great success with muscle testing for herself) she discovered the practice of using a pendulum. One fateful day, instead of picking up the pendulum, she found herself simply placing her head into her hands. Unexpectedly, tears began to flow and she had the thought "This is Reiki."

Baby Steps When she had first been told about an energy technique called Reiki, Cora's reaction was, "I can't feel energy."

Nevertheless, she now realized that Reiki was the next step, and proceeded with level one training. She practiced on family and friends, eventually continuing on to take her Second Degree training twice, with two different Masters. With Reiki as a daily influence in her life, her confidence and awareness blossomed and it was well before her own Master's level training that the notion took hold of her to become a practitioner in order to treat others. Cora's natural sense of joy and humility brought more strength as she began exploring other modalities in the alternative healing field, including CranioSacral Therapy, and the work of Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT).

Her growth in the use of these modalities has come about because she practices diligently on herself and the family.

For example, when her seven-year-old daughter recently had to undergo dental surgery, she employed EFT for four days prior to the procedure. She and her daughter

January 2009

"tapped" again just before and after the surgery. The nurses were amazed at what a good patient this little seven-year-old was, and her recovery was speedy.

Where she was expected to feel drowsy and out of sorts from the after-effects of the anesthesia, she instead was wide-awake and wanted to go out and play. The only thing that this little girl complained about was that they hadn't given her the tooth they extracted! When she later discovered that the tooth fairy visited anyway, all was well once again.

Throughout this journey into alternative therapies, Cora is constantly researching. She is a sponge for knowledge and wants to know all that she can to assist herself, her family, and now that she has opened her doors professionally - her community. Cora is a registered alternative Health Practitioner with the Natural Health Practitioners of Canada.

A Military Life Cora's compassionate nature has a lot to do with her lifestyle and the influence that her husband's employment has on their family life. Cora's husband is in the Canadian Military and has been away from home on training and deployment for the better part of the past year. Cora openly admits, "I don't know what I would do without the ability to use EFT on myself to maintain a sense of peace." With the military lifestyle, young families relocate when required and Cora recently arrived in Winnipeg, Manitoba after spending four years in Cold Lake, Alberta. Frequent moves are a challenge but Cora has learned to adjust, and the tools that have helped and guided her are the same ones she offers to her clients.

She knows how to be flexible and make adjustments in the most positive, constructive way.

At www.corarennie.com you find yourself being drawn in to Cora's world of gentleness and peace. The introduction to her site says 'Welcome to My Home' and she means exactly that. Her site is very well laid out with a wealth of information for you to peruse. Training in several modalities has allowed Cora's natural tendency to use her skills in facilitating the healing process for her clients. Her natural joy bubbles through and even in a brief phone conversation she makes you smile.

Wellness is her focus, joy and compassion are some of her tools, and learned and intuitive knowledge are her greatest friends.

To make a connection with Cora, you can email her at info@corarennie.com or by phone you can call 204-7 782-3 3674. Give this Winnipeg girl a call and let her bring a smile and healthy joy to your day!

Gypsy Woman Juey Ann MacLeod has let nothing stop her in her adventures around the world. In the process, she has learned about life, love and most importantly herself. Her story begins in the corporate world where she was for 25 years, while living in one of Canada's busiest cities, Vancouver B.C. One day in the mid 1999, she gave it all up and began a six-month journey throughout North America. Juey Ann turned Gypsy, putting over 65,000 kilometers on her car and thousands of airmiles. Her quest was for knowledge to support her Reiki, Coaching and Tantra Educators training, knowing this was the kind of work she was destined to do.

Her adventures over the past twenty years lead her to heal with the dolphins in Hawaii, study Tantra and create Angel Eye Healing. Also in Hawaii, she was honored to study Lomi-Lomi with a Kahuna called Aunty Margaret. In India, she studied and experienced Ayurveda at an Ayurvedic Hospital with Dr. Sukumarian. Japan found her meditating atop the Reiki Mountain - Mount Kumara and reinitiating her Reiki Masters Degree with a Japanese Reiki Master.

Passionate Communicator Juey Ann has acquired a variety of certifications and diplomas, which have supported her focus to continually make a difference. Her passion is intimacy and joy. She coaches couples and individuals to reach their ultimate communication potential with themselves and each other by overcoming the blockages that limit their growth. She is trained in Touch For Health, Cranial Sacral and Polarity Therapy allowing her to bring balance back to the body.

Reconnection Juey Ann has vast experience allowing others to feel safe in talking about deep sexual issues, including past abuse

January 2009

that has not been addressed or resolved. Her compassionate and gentle nature encourages her clients to open up and receive guidance and healing so they can reconnect to their purpose and their joy. She knows intuitively which modality will provide the most comfort and get the best results for the healing journey of her clients. Juey Ann knows that every answer is within us, and can be discovered in an environment of safety and love.

While visiting a friend in Lacombe Alberta, Juey Ann fell in love with the community and decided to make her home there. Based in Lacombe, Juey Ann conducts The Art of Joyful Loving Workshops for couples. This workshop introduces techniques that encourage deeper connection with your partner on all levels - mental, emotional, physical and spiritual. Understanding that life gets so busy and often the most important relationship doesn't seem to have enough attention or time, Juey Ann is so pleased to share the "10 Minute Connects" that amp up the sizzle and strengthen connection quickly. She also teaches a variety of One-day classes including Reiki, Intuitional Development and Discovering the Goddess - an empowerment series for women.

Juey Ann is excited to announce her new workshop entitled - I'm Alive. This is a very timely topic as it is directed to the Empty Nesters who are readjusting to the world without children in the home. She believes it can be challenging to connect back to yourself and your partner if we don't really understand who you are. Uncovering your strengths, your attributes and your own wants / goals / dreams allows you to create a more fulfilling, joyful life with meaningful relationships.

A Joy Peddler In 1998, on one of her sojourns into the Southwestern United States to attend a workshop, Juey Ann met an amazing man. Five years later a mutual friend put on her "Matchmaking Hat" and invited both of them to another workshop where their relationship took on a new dynamic.

Today, they are happily married and settled in Lacombe, where they often work together coaching private sessions or team teaching couples workshops.

Juey Ann is truly a Joy Peddler. She searched the world to learn all she could and find her own truth and joy.

Now, those of us in Central Alberta are honored to have this amazingly talented and gentle woman living and working amongst us. She has much love and wisdom to share to those she works with. It is no longer a matter of scouring the world for information, now she provides all she learned to those of us who cannot take the trips or the time she did. Take the opportunity to attend a workshop or schedule a consultation with Juey Ann by calling 403-782-2559 or 1-888-358-8789 or by email to jueyann@joyfulloving.com. I know you will be glad you did!

Nurturing ‘NerGy Nadine Gordon DreamWalker

What is a DreamWalker?

Leslieville, Alberta

403-729-2170 www.nurturingnergy. com The Beginning of the Journey…

The three-year-old child with third degree burns on her face could tell the difference. She knew people were looking at her oddly after the accident. They were treating her different than before. She began to feel abandoned and alone. When she looked into a mirror, all she saw was ugly burns, still in the healing process. They scared her and she began to withdraw.

As she grew, the burns healed, leaving minimal physical scarring, but the scars in her psyche ran deep. She withdrew more, developing a passion for books and animals. Evolving into adulthood brought Nadine through more difficult and traumatic experiences and today she is grateful. She is grateful for the challenges that taught her how to be kinder, more empathetic and more understanding of others who struggle.

Over the Years…

Nadine Gordon is a country girl born and raised in Alberta. Her love of books drove her to continually study and research things that intruiged her. Along with her love of books, came a passionate love for writing. Over the years, she has been published in various papers and magazines including a Calgary Magazine, Horses All; where she wrote an article about the 1994 round up of the wild horses of Suffield. A similar article was featured in the Strathmore Standard.

Her passion for animals particularly horses; led her to study and acquire her Animal Sciences Diploma.

Nadine was an officer who worked in the Correctional Field for fifteen years. She trained in self-defense and various other courses such as counseling to assist her with Government work.

Finally, struggling with exhaustion, anxiety and depression, she was diagnosed with post-traumatic stress syndrome, which forced her to leave her employment as a Correctional Officer behind. Prescribed medications did not help. After 4 to 6 months, Nadine sought out wellness from other, more natural sources. She turned to yoga,

January 2009

engaged in psychological counseling and was drawn to experience and study Reiki. Through these studies, she found her way out of Correctional work, and into the world of natural healing. It was a perfect fit as she began to learn how to help others overcome their challenges and live healthier, happier lives that are more productive.

Nadine refers to herself as a Dreamwalker. She defines herself as 'One who has awakened and is walking her dream.' Her role is to, 'assist others to walk their dreams.'

She states that, "A Dreamwalker is a person who is able to traverse all worlds in any dimension, past present or future through the light or darkness to access hidden dreams in order to bring about wholeness or healing for the client or self. This can be done in a lucid state or out-of-body trance.

A Dreamwalker will bring you what you need, alchemy. It may be a message from the other side, healing, counseling, a laugh, exercise, meditation, or change in diet. You will be given work to do so you stay grounded and in balance, this enables you to retreat to your dreams but live in the present."

Today…

She now resides just outside of Leslieville, Alberta, and from there runs a Sanctuary called Nurturing ‘NerGy. At the Sanctuary, she teaches various workshops entitled, Latent Energy Level 1 and Advanced, as well as a Course in Animal Wisdom. She also sees clients for private consultations by appointment, and usually utilizes the Usui System of Reiki in her work.

In her counseling work, Nadine strives to assist her clients in balancing mind, body and spirit. She utilizes psychometry, her intuition and her counseling background, as well as everything she has learned through her extensive research.

Her own experiences with pain, heartbreak, isolation and fear drive her to share with the world tools she learned to use which helped her to become well again.

Nadine currently writes a column for the Violet Ray Magazine entitled "Scrolls of the Dreamwalker", and is in the final development stages of releasing her first book.

The hours when you can contact Nadine for either information on classes or to book a personal appointment are Monday to Friday and alternating Saturdays from 10am to 4pm.

She can be contacted through her email address at dreamwalker@nurturingnergy.com or by calling her office at 403-729-2170.

Nadine invites you to call her, and let her share how she can make a difference to you.

1-877-923-3476 www.annemarievers.com Email: annemarieevers@shaw.ca Even as a child I always knew that it would be my life's mission to help people. I brought home stray pets and I was always sharing my food and toys. My father was a preacher and we did not have much money. In those days preachers lived mostly from love offerings from their congregation. When the congregation was having money struggles they could not afford to give the preacher and his family money.

Many times I remember eating dandelions. My mom became an expert in preparing dandelions - dandelion greens, stew, broth, etc. I do know what it was like to go to bed hungry and I would lie in bed as a child visualizing eating a turkey dinner with stuffing and all the trimmings and finishing it off with pumpkin pie. I found to my surprise that this did work and I didn't feel quite as hungry. Of course there was that little, gnawing, irritating pain in my stomach asking for food.

I started to work very young cleaning dog kennels and working at my paper route. Every cent I made went to the family for food. My desire to help others became even stronger, so they would not have to experience what I did. As I got older, I came to the conclusion that I really could change my world and the people in and around it by changing my negative thinking to positive thinking, one new, positive thought and one new action at a time.

I discovered the Affirmation process quite by accident. When my son David was born with crooked feet I did an Affirmation that he would walk. At that time I did not even know what the word Affirmation meant, much less how it worked. I looked at my baby son and said with conviction to him, "David you will walk." I told others that he would walk and I kept that belief at the forefront of my mind. Then I was introduced to a wonderful organization the Shriners, who accepted David and took care of the surgery, the lengthy hospital stay and after treatment. My Affirmation, that I said with love that only a mother could feel for her child, worked!

its 7th edition. Then I retired from the Corporate World to discover my life was just beginning. I created my website where I advertise all my products-various Hard Cover Books, e-books, Tapes, Cards of Life, Affirmation Booklets, Children's programs, etc. I have never looked back as this second career is so rewarding, totally fulfilling and wonderful that I look forward to every day with excitement and enthusiasm. I am so honored and blessed that I have and am teaching this wonderful miraculous process to others.

Many wonderful people and opportunities have come into my life as a result of my Affirmations. Today finds me busy shipping books, preparing for and doing my radio talk shows, answering emails giving hope to people worldwide, doing Affirmation Counseling, Cards of Life Readings, lecturing, writing more e-books, articles and columns and being a mother, wife, teacher and student. Learning about Affirmations what they are and how they work, especially for me has been a magical journey and every day I expect and receive and live miracles. I have never been happier!

The Affirmation process that I teach has worked for me in every area of my life, with exceptional and miraculous results.

Among many others, I have affirmed for homes, vehicles, careers, money, health, marriages, positive people, specific circumstances and just about everything. I have huge binders bulging with thousands of testimonials from people worldwide sharing with me the wonderful results they received when they acknowledged, harnessed and used the wondrous, creative power within each and every one us to make their dreams manifest as affirmed.

Some call me a 'Walking Affirmation' as people ask me "How come you are so lucky, everything seems to work for you?"

After giving that question a great deal of thought I answered, "Well I believe it is because of my great desire to help others and the work I do and the saying, 'What goes around comes around,' and I am reaping some of the benefits of my work.

I am a Radio Talk Show Host, Lecturer, Author, Affirmations Coach, Cards of Life Intuitive Reader, Workshop Facilitator, and Columnist with this Magazine, Ordained Minister and Doctor of Divinity. I have also been nicknamed the Affirmations Doctor.

As I feel it is so important to teach children the power of the spoken word-Affirmations I have created several Children's Affirmation Programs such as KAP And also Motivational Affirmation Club, (MAC), in a club setting where kids really feel that they can belong.

I am so honored and blessed that I am in a position to shed the wondrous light of Hope to people everywhere. My Affirmation is to encourage every reader to find out what you really, really want to do, create your dream and then walk into and live in your dream. You will be so glad you did!

I did not question how it would work; I just believed with all my heart that it would work. Today one would never guess that David ever had trouble with his feet. I knew the 'what' and God knew the 'how.'

I am living proof that 'Affirmations When Properly Done Always Work!" sometimes not in our time frame or as we think they should, but they always work! Yes, Folks-- Believe it!

In 1989, while I was still involved in real estate, I wrote my first book, Affirmations Your Passport to Happiness, which is now in

What is Onsen?

Onsen is an advanced therapeutic technique, which combines modalities of Osteopathy and massage. It provides the tools required to effectively assess and correct body dysfunction through painless realignment of the muscles, joints, bones, and tissues. It is the structural realignment of the hips and spine.

Adding a perfect complimentary modality to the other elements of her practice, Kathy was drawn to the gentleness of Ortho-Bionomy, and is very excited to bring this modality to her community.

What is Ortho-Bionomy?

Email: therapeutic.kneads@hotmail.com

Ortho-Bionomy can help with such conditions as:

Therapeutic Kneads With Kathy Snyder, RMT,COTT

Headaches, back pain, sprains/strains, sports injuries, acute injuries, knee problems, and acute and chronic pain.

Let's Meet Kathy Kathy graduated with honors on February 28th 2003, from The Alberta Institute of Massage and is a registered member in good standing with the Natural Health Practitioners of Alberta (NHPC). Even though she had done so well in training, she was guided to work for an established and reputable massage clinic for the past five years. Kathy’s intention was to start her own business, but she wanted to learn through observing how to become an independent businessperson. It was also important to Kathy to establish credibility in her field with the healing community and with clients.

Finally, this August, 2008, her independent nature is being satisfied as she steps out of the position of employee and steps into the role of business owner/operator. With the new modalities and a strong and credible reputation as an outstanding therapist in her field, Kathy brings to her community a wealth of knowledge.

Kathy has always been interested in the health care field. She is a people person, and her work in massage has guided her to develop close friendships and bonds with clients and other practitioners. Kathy has a natural curiosity about wellness, and loves to learn and add techniques she can share to assist her clients. With an emphasis on integrity, she has always provided safe and effective alternative healthcare to those who seek her out.

Passionate about the benefits of Massage Therapy, Kathy specializes in deep tissue massage. She also offers relaxation massage, prenatal massage for expectant moms, and level 1 sports therapy massage. Her strong desire to assist in wellness guided her to study Reiki and she has acquired her Reiki level 1 certification.

At the local Red Deer clinic where Kathy was employed for the past five years, she was fortunate to learn the Onsen Technique, adding to her credentials, certification as an Onsen Technique Therapist. (COTT) Along the way, she discovered Ortho-Bionomy, and is currently working towards receiving her certification in that modality as well.

January 2009

Ortho-Bionomy facilitates the therapeutic process and promotes natural body alignment, balance and pain relief.

The practitioner works with you to identify areas of discomfort, tension and pain as well as areas of comfort and ease of movement. The use of gentle movements, comfortable positioning and compression are incorporated.

No forceful movements are used.

The training to become certified in Ortho-Bionomy is intense, and Kathy is currently completing the 505 required hours in the Practitioner program. The program consists of over 15 different required classes, as well as over 10 different electives to choose from. Once completed, she will have the option of continuing on to the Advanced Practitioner level, which is another 500 hours of study.

Ortho-Bionomy is a system that allows us to integrate our physical, emotional and mental experiences. Once the client becomes more aware of their own physical tensions, they can gradually learn to connect both the physical and energetic patterns within the body to affect a change without necessarily engaging physically Massage Therapy is not a requirement to learn Ortho-Bionomy, but Kathy feels fortunate to be able to incorporate these techniques into her massage sessions. This allows her clients a brief experience of the technique before committing to a full Ortho-Bionomy session. She invites seekers of wellness to check out more details at www.ortho-bionomy.ca

Stephanie Monsen Reiki Master & Yuen Method™ Practitioner in Training

Calgary, AB

Yuen Method™

403-614-5789

The Yuen Method™ is a revolutionary alternative healing modality that blends knowledge of anatomy, physiology, kinesiology, chiropractic, qi gong, Feng Shui and quantum physics to eliminate or greatly minimize chronic pain, allergies, fear, depression and release old behavior patterns. It often delivers immediate and lasting results in 3 treatments or less.

Email: stephanie.monsen@shaw.ca Meet Stephanie Monsen, Creator of Watersong Wellness.

Reiki Master Stephanie Monsen's first personal experience with a healing modality called the Yuen Method™ in May 2006 was, as she put it, "spectacular". This experience was the final step on a journey of self-discovery and learning that led her to create Watersong Wellness.

As a senior executive for a national financial services firm, Stephanie observed how health issues, difficult relationships, stress and anxiety could deeply impact an individual's well being in all areas of their life. Her drive to understand the connection between lifestyle and thought led her to study the Silva Alpha Meditation Technique, and Reiki. By the winter of 2006, she had completed her Masters Reiki training in the Usui tradition.

Here is what she says: "My personal experience with my first Yuen Method™ appointment was nothing short of spectacular. Instant and permanent relief of both physical and emotional pain and trauma occurred. I couldn't believe what had just happened. At the end of my appointment I inquired about the scope of issues that could be healed through the Yuen Method ™ as well as asking to be referred to a Certified Practitioner and Teacher to study this modality so others could benefit from this knowledge."

Her first class was with Dr. Kam Yuen, the founder of this modality in Saskatoon, SK in September 2006. In November of that same year Stephanie was involved in a serious horseback riding accident and collapsed her left lung. Through the amazing power of the universe, all her fellow Yuen Method™ and local Reiki colleagues were notified of her injury within hours of the incident and began to send remote healing. Her recovery was nothing short of amazing! She was in the hospital for less than half of the usual amount of time (two days instead of five). Her pain levels were lower than the medical staff had ever witnessed for such a bad injury and she was released without antibiotics and did not have any trouble with infection.

Four weeks later, Stephanie had made a full recovery and was back at work. Her doctor was amazed at the state of her lung. It was as if it had never been injured! This experience inspired her to continue to learn the Yuen

January 2009

Method™ in hopes of being chosen as one of a handful of students to become Yuen Method™ Certified Practitioners in Canada. She has studied with a total of 4 Certified Yuen Method ™ Practitioners throughout North America and has achieved all of the prerequisites to become a Yuen Method™ Certified Practitioner. Stephanie plans to attend the biannual certification course in November 2008 in Los Angeles with Dr. Kam Yuen.

Treatments can have profound and lasting effects on health, rejuvenation, self-esteem, positive attitude, better relationships, as well as increasing personal prosperity and wealth. They require absolutely no exercise, no drugs, no meditation, no devices, no hypnosis, and no religious beliefs.

The Yuen Method™ does not require physical touch to bring about change. You will not receive a diagnosis or be prescribed medication, nor will we recommend that you discontinue medication prescribed by a licensed medical practitioner. Instead, the Yuen Method™ uses applied kinesiology to locate and correct energetic weakness and blockages in the energy body. Once a person's energy body is strengthened, their physical body's natural healing ability takes over to bring about positive change.

The premise behind the Yuen Method™ is that a person's body functions like a computer. On an energetic level, we, as humans, are either strong or weak to any given issue or situation. Pain or discomfort in any area of our life is a sign that something is wrong with the flow of energy in our body.

Humans are complex beings with multiple levels of consciousness. Energy healing simply works to make sure that all levels of consciousness are in congruent communication so that pain and discomfort can be eliminated and personal goals can be attained.

Stephanie invites clients into her Yuen Method™ practice.

What if you could…..

-

Be free of emotional or physical pain permanently Immediately improve relationships Resolve financial concerns Eliminate stress and anxiety from your life Relieve traumas Remove barriers and limitations

Restore your vitality to let your spirit soar!

www.essentialenergyandlaser.com cynthia@essentialenergyandlaser.com At Essential Energy and Laser Centre, I offer a comfortable, soothing environment and strive to make your visit an enjoyable one. I am a small, home-based business and can be flexible as required to meet my client's needs and time restraints. My clients have been feeling the benefits of our high quality services and natural products, which cater to your needs.

Call to book your complimentary laser consult or to find out how my Referral Rewards Program works today!

Once I hit my forties, I entered a period of Growth and Change. It meant it was time to put aside my fears and worries, try to find peace and joy. Being true and committing to me was the most important thing I could do for myself and my family. Since I have started this journey, I can't tell you how wonderful, thankful, content and happy I have been! When I wake in the morning, I realize I have the opportunity to make a difference in my life and that by making that difference; I am also able to make a difference in someone else's life. Who can ask for more?

Essential Energy and Laser is one of the only places in Lacombe, Alberta offering these specialty services: ~ Laser Hair Removal ~ Detox Therapy: Chi Machine, Ion Cleanse ~ And the Electro Reflexology Machine ~ Reiki ~ Raindrop Therapy

With a focus on her journey to make a difference, Pam became a Paramedic in 1992. She loved the position, but as the shift work hours and fast food lifestyle started taking their toll on her health, she invited the universe to show her what her next step was. Her answer came in 2006 while driving home after a busy shift. She asked 'where do I go from here?". When her hands began to tingle, Pam knew she needed to pursue the field of energy work. She also knew she was ready to study other modalities and become an independent healing facilitator.

To resolve lifestyle health issues for herself, she experienced a Thai Yoga Massage and knew, this was what she wanted to do for others.

Her study of Reflexology followed with training at The Karma Project in Calgary where she became a certified Thai Yoga Massage therapist. Pam's acute intuitive nature assists her in guiding her clients' to the wellness they seek. Thai Yoga Massage is a non-invasive therapy with the recipient remaining fully clothed. It benefits the client through the release of energy blockages. She describes the treatments as 'relaxing but invigorating at the same time.' The uniqueness of the treatments sets Pam apart from the traditional massage therapist and must be experienced.

Pam Huestis operates Sundreems Studio out of the Serendipity Wellness Centre in the historic Kent House in downtown Lacombe, Alberta.

Hours of operation are by appointment only, Call Pam at 403-877-4033 for more information, and book your appointment today.

The Financial Guides Taking You Where You Want To Go!

Crystal Hudec 60 High Street SE Calgary, AB T2Z 3T8

(403) 971-4402 www.thefinancialguides.com crystalhudec@thefinancialguides.com

Financial Journeys: To see if we are a fit for you - you are welcome to attend a $75 day long workshop. This is our personal financial class. You will be treated like a welcome guest and be served great food and drink. You'll laugh a lot during the day and receive unbelievably good and pertinent unbiased information. We've gotten rave reviews on this workshop. It's not a day long sales pitch and there's no big 'high pressure close' at the end. But we do get most of our clients from it - because they're so impressed with it.

Small Business Class: Because we absolutely love working with small businesses, and have a greedy, motivated, self interest to see them succeed (the more money you make the more money you have to invest with us J) We offer a comprehensive three day class that helps you on the path to owning a business not just being owned by your job. We teach you the real fundamentals and give you time to work on your business, instead of just in it. This class is offered on a pay what you can, pay what you feel it is worth basis.

Are you a Calgary couple who feels overwhelmed and confused about your finances?

The Financial Guides come from a simple philosophy: we want our clients to be rich and will help them in any way we can to get there (so long as it's honest, moral, and ethical).

Acupuncture Care Holistic Centre Sherwood Park, Alberta 780-416-2828 Website: www.mycolonhydrotherapy.com

Here's why we get almost all of our business from enthusiastic referrals . . .Our clients are raving fans: they eagerly refer us to their closest friends and associates without us having to ask. Why? Low advisor to client ratio: We ensure that each of our financial guides has a maximum of 200 clients. The industry average for experienced agents is 500 - 750 per agent.

An Integrated Approach: We deal with way more than the numbers. We get into the emotional and psychological aspects of money. Mostly this part is dealt with one on one in appointments. There is a coaching element, but it is quite informal. Mostly you will be asked a lot of questions. A lot.

Ongoing and in depth support: We meet with our clients at least once a year for a full review. Most of our clients see us at least quarterly.

Dress code: We don't wear suits. We wear jeans and t-shirts. We are real people and we use real language.

We don't need to use fancy words to try and make you feel intimidated. We know our stuff, we do what is right, and we can explain it in such a way that you can understand it.

As a clairvoyant I am guided to integrate various modalities including Reiki, Sound, Color and Crystal therapies as well as Theta Healing. To aid in the enhancement of personal well being I believe that healing past traumatic events is one of the greatest acts of freewill.

Resolving coping mechanisms formed from as early as infancy can re-establish balance and self awareness.

The therapeutic sessions and/or training with these modalities not only aid in healing but also greatly increase your personal vibrational frequency thus expanding individual intuition. This experience develops your awareness of the effect of other people’s energetic influences spiritually and on all your human levels. I feel that by providing both the training and personal sessions with these modalities as well as group meditations, I am able to aid in the enrichment of personal self-awareness and growth. Of particular interest to me is the provision of balance for indigo, crystal, rainbow and blue people.

Through the further application of numerology and guided past life regression/progression I am able to assist in your ability to access a greater wisdom providing more tools for this life’s journey.

By evolving through these processes, you will become more empowered, with a greater objective self-awareness, an increased personal vibrational frequency and true recognition of your life purpose.

Living a life in balanced awareness unencumbered by old coping mechanisms and limiting belief systems, you can truly express your individual free will and creative energies with loving awareness and consideration for all in unity.

Pamela Shelly is originally from Calgary and now resides in Kelowna, BC. She has been passionately teaching metaphysical/spiritual workshops for over 10 years. She has received certification in NLP, Rayid, Bodytalk, Reiki Master/Teacher & Angel Therapy. She regularly comes to Calgary to teach a variety of workshops.

"I love teaching courses on Angels, Archangels and Ascended Masters and assisting others to open up and connect more closely. I teach an Introduction To The Angelic Realm, Angelic Healing I and Angelic Healing II. In the courses you will be working with the beautiful energies of the Angelic Realm and Ascended Masters to assist you in releasing, healing and further opening up to your divine guidance. You may also offer Angelic Healing to others on their journey to wholeness and self-mastery. I also teach a Business Course For Wholistic Practitioners, the Reiki Master Level, as well as Working With Crystals."

"I am also excited about the Conscious Parenting course I teach. Our precious children need guidance and nurturing so that they can fulfill their unique mission. At the age of 8 I had a choir of Angels sing to me more than once. My father attempted to explain the experience as something to do with a stovetop, radio waves and dental fillings!"

Pamela will be teaching a variety of workshops in Calgary in August and September. A free talk & open house with many products available including a variety of crystals and the divinely inspired Archangel Essence Aromatherapy sprays and 4 Guided Meditation cd's.

&Abundance

Money, Wealth

Your human journey is about choices and the experiences they bring. I can intuitively guide you to healthier choices which will enhance your life experience.

I was born with the gift of clairvoyance, which is the ability to ‘see spirit’.

I am a psychic medium, and I have recently returned from The Arthur Findlay College of Psychic Development in Stansted, England. The College is the best in the world for people with developing gifts, and I craved guidance in understanding how to apply these gifts for clients. The intense training and discipline required by my tutors has given me what I needed and I now bring these gifts to you.

Psychics bring to their work their own unique gifts. We utilize those gifts in the sharing of information and historically, are best known for predicting future events. However, I am not a predictive psychic and here at the Studio Holistic Health Centre, I do not focus on future events through prediction. Instead, I offer my Psychic Gifts to assist in resolving current issues so you can influence your own future in a positive way.

My psychic ability guides me to identify who or what might be standing in the way of your progress.

I also will connect through Spirit with loved ones who have crossed over if the timing is right for them. This is Mediumship, and it offers two things. One, the ability to know without a doubt that this physical reality is not all there is to us and that our spirit lives on after physical death.

Second, it allows you the peace to know how your loved one is doing and sometimes even receive messages that

can help you in the rest of your physical journey.

It is simple. You ask the questions and I receive the answers that will make sense to you. This information, coupled with common sense opens the door to your ability to overcome challenges. Your energy will be read in regards to physical health issues, and emotional and mental disturbance. You will be advised and guided using the information received from all energies around you.

This includes your own energy, crossed over loved ones, deceased pets, friends, spirit guides and Angels who always work closely with both you and I. Past live’s will be tapped into where challenges were not completely resolved, often determining if cell memory of those events share responsibility for current challenges.

Out of respect for your power of choice and free will, I do not predict your future as I do not wish to encourage a state of limbo while you wait for the predictions to reveal themselves. Our focus is always based on the present, with a desire to influence a positive outcome for your future.

You were born with the powerful gift of choice and your own intuition. You have the right to be what you choose and the choices you make reveal themselves in the results whether positive or negative. Your human journey is about those choices and the experiences they bring. I can intuitively guide you to healthier choices which will enhance your life experience. Life is meant to be happy, and to be loved and lived in the present time. Through the psychic links with Spirit and those in the Spirit world, as well as common sense you will receive valid evidence and information to live a happier, more positive life. Believe me, it is your divine right to be joyful.

SOUL IMPRINTS A Soul Imprint is Custom artwork that I create and Transcribe based on the energy vibrations of the client. Since energy is Universal and has no boundaries the client does not have to be present for me to create a Soul Imprint for them. There is a substantial amount of creative and intuitive energy that goes into each and every Soul Imprint. Starting with honing in on the clients energy, to creating the actual imprint, to the scanning, reading the imprint, writing / translating and finally to the minute details which results in the end product. The entire process takes
