Updates! Oh boy!

Hello, loves! I have decided for the time being that this blog is not something I will be keeping up with as much as I had originally planned (if you didn't notice from my long absence!). It feels a bit strange to discuss spirituality separately from the rest of my life (since the two technically can't be separated! haha) - I really would like to more openly integrate the two on Tumblr.

I hope that the information I have presented here has been helpful to you! I am leaving everything up for anyone seeking resources.

I have come to realize that offering readings is not what I am meant to be doing at this time. For anyone who is seeking understanding, I still highly recommend following Teal Scott (TheSpiritualCatalyst) on YouTube, or on her website. She is a beautiful person with great insights that have helped me a lot.

Thank you sincerely for your interest in what I have/had to say! Bless you. : )

Please feel free to follow me at my other blog, lavenderexistence I will not exclusively be posting "spiritual" content, however this is where I will be continuing my blogging, including the exploration of spiritual topics as they arise to me in my life. Feel free to contact me to discuss anything at all.

Love and light!

Update

Hello, everyone! I hope that you are having a great day! I just wanted to thank you for your continued interest in receiving guidance/healing through me, and to inform those of you with asks in my inbox that I will be answering you in the near future. I appreciate your patience and all the positive vibes sent my way as I enjoy this short break and focus on reconnecting with higher myself. Bless you all! Love and light!

Hi! So, I was just wondering how you do your long-distance healing sessions. Is there a certain method you use? Also, did you have any previous training before you decided to offer the sessions? I'm thinking about offering them, I'm just not sure if I'm quite ready, per say. Thoughts?

Hi! For healing sessions I focus on making myself a channel for the healing energy of Source by meditating and I send that positive energy to the recipient via our spirit guides. I tend to focus an outline of a human body in my head and imagine the energy channels running through. With intention, I root the person to the earth so that they are stable and have a safe pathway for releasing negativity. Then I open up their crown chakra to allow free flowing light energy (all the while protecting myself by communicating my wishes to my guides and asking that the recipient's higher self oversee the process so that it best benefits them based on what is meant to be). Depending on whether the other person has requested I place special attention on a certain area, I might focus on cleansing certain chakras or healing physical ailments or emotional trauma. I always do a cleansing sweep of their aura afterwards.Since I don't have any training- I'm in the process of learning what I can online- I am still debating whether or not I will charge for this. Perhaps paying for classes such as Reiki training is helpful for some but at this time I don't think it is not for me. There are a lot of legal complications with charging for alternative healing, so if you would like to offer this at some point I would recommend researching how you can avoid liability. Of course, I believe that intention is powerful and that sending love and thoughts of healing to someone can only be beneficial, however depending on the recipient's expectations and the outcome, you don't want there to be conflict or disappointment. I hope this answers your questions! Feel free to talk with me more about it- I would also be interested in what you know as I continue my learning process. Good luck to you!

Thank you for the reading; it was helpful. The answer regarding my career search was especially helpful (and true).

You're welcome! Stay positive :)

Taking a short break

Hello, everyone! :) I will be taking a short break from answering requests (I am not sure how long this will be for but I will keep you posted). The healing sessions I worked on recently reminded me that I have been needing to take more time to heal myself before I focus on healing others. I tend to ignore my body’s persistent signs because I am easily distracted by what is going on around me, so I am going to address that by finally setting time aside to tackle the physical manifestations of some ignored stresses and possibly genetically-passed negativity that I have internalized. Thank you for your loving thoughts and good vibes at this time. I’m looking forward to returning to the blog renewed and full of excitement. Take care!

Blessings and love to all of you on this day! <3

How many days do I have to wait to have another reading again?

Hi there! You can request another reading at any time, though depending on what your focus is right now/what you would like the reading to focus on, you may receive similar answers. Feel free to request again, though I will make first-time requests the priority if the ask box becomes busy. : )

Thanks!

[askanempath-blog]

Yes and is like you know me so will is like your my old friend that walk with me all my life. Thank you for the reading and thank you for talking to me and all so to your angles. Thank you

You are welcome, dear! :) Take care.

How amazing! :) This was the first thing that popped up on my dash today, a perfectly-timed reminder from the universe.

A video by Teal that I thought might help out some of you who have been wondering how to change your ways of thinking. :) Have I mentioned yet that I think her videos have a lot of great information?

[askanempath-blog]

Please read entire post :)

I will be opening free long-distance readings and healing sessions. I think I will comfortably be able to handle one to three requests a day for the moment.

I will be asking my spirit guides for access to the information that will most benefit you at this time. At no time will I be able to pass any boundaries that you set, nor will I accept energy sent to me unless it is of the highest good. You might like to ask your own guides/protectors for security and answers before and during the experience.

Please specify whether you would like my response to be private or public and provide your first name (as a focus point for me).

Readings will involve me entering a deep meditative state in which I ask my spirit guides to help me read your overall energy as if we were present in the same room. Since my abilities are different than a psychic’s (I don’t get visions, for example), I will combine my meditation with a tarot reading in order to seek more specific details.

For the long-distance energy healing sessions, it is best if we schedule a time for you to meditate and receive the healing as I send it.

Feel free to share your experiences afterwards. I’m looking forward to it! :) Bless you!

As we explore the endless miracles and mysteries of life we remember how to appreciate everything around us as brand new; like children, we are full of pure joy, living in the NOW.

Remove the log from your own eye

One of the common feelings that empaths experience is the desire to help everyone else, especially loved ones, onto the same spiritual path as the empath is on, in an attempt to make others happier and healthier in the way the empath thinks is best. The thing is, forcing others to try new things or to change their habits doesn't work in the long run. Encouragement towards a healthy lifestyle is certainly helpful, but the key to success is for the empath to focus intensely on their own personal development and improvement.

When this happens, the empath's energy will achieve a higher vibration, and this positivity will become either inspiring or overwhelming to the people around them. The empath will draw to themselves other people who are of an equally high vibration, and the empath's loved ones will either adapt by starting to follow the empath's example, or distance themselves until they are able to attain a vibration that is not so low as to conflict with the empath's advancements. 

That is to say, if the people around you are experiencing symptoms of low vibrational energy, it is likely your own energy has attracted them to you. They are/were a perfect match for you at some point in your life because both of you needed to learn from the other in some way (whether or not you currently understand what the lesson was). The people who are at a low vibrational energy level who you cannot avoid due to your current circumstances will no longer cause you problems once you turn your attentions inward and work on achieving a higher vibration. The people you wish to help, or fix, or teach to help themselves, will heal over time at their own pace. The best way to help them is by helping yourself. A great example of this occurs in the Bible: Jesus never forced his followers to do anything, he merely led by example. His love inspired others to attain peace and love as well.

Spirit guides are loving energies that enter our lives to help us accomplish what we need to in this lifetime. They are chosen before we incarnate in order to support us.

Spirit guides are loving energies that enter our lives to help us accomplish what we need to in this lifetime. They are chosen before we incarnate in order to support us. Our higher self even helps to decide who our spirit guides will be. Some guides may be with us all the time while others arrive at a time when we have a specific lesson to learn.

Spiritual guides exist on different spiritual planes. It all depends on what they have experienced. For example, Ascended Masters are on the highest plane and include Jesus, Buddha and Krishna. They guide many souls at the same time.

Recognizing Your Spirit Guide

Not every spirit guide arrives in the same form. Your guide can be a teacher, storyteller, or warrior. You may see them as a light energy or human form. There are even animal guides who teach and protect us. Try to recognize when your spirit guide is at work.

Have you ever had a gut feeling that you shouldn’t do something?

Or intuitively known the best decision to a personal problem?

Perhaps you marveled at meeting someone at just the right time in your life.

These are all examples of how spirit guides show their unconditional love by guiding and protecting us.

Establishing a relationship with your spirit guide is a way to connect to the loving guidance that is always with you, even when you are feeling sad or discouraged.

Communicating with Your Spirit Guide

We all have the ability to communicate with our guides, even if we don’t consider ourselves to be psychic. After all, everyone has some degree of psychic ability. Desire is all you need to be successful. It should always be a comfortable process. If it feels difficult then you are going about it in the wrong way.

The quickest way to connect to your spirit guide is through meditation because that is when your mind is most still. Some people in the psychic community recommend performing a Protection Ritual first in order to attract the most positive energies.

Meditation

Find a comfortable place that is free of any distractions. Light a candle or some incense. Take a deep breath and clear your thoughts. When you feel open:

1. Invite your guide to join you.

2. If you don’t know your guide’s name, this is a good time to ask. In the future you will be able to initiate contact on a more personal level.

3. Share your need for love and guidance, especially if you are struggling with a particular issue.

4. Express your desire for help and ask for a sign to show you that you are on the right path.

5. Now quiet your mind and just listen.

6. After you receive a response, always thank your guide for loving and protecting you.

Journaling

Sometimes it is easier to process things in the written word. It helps to keep track of your experiences in a journal. Watch for signs from your guide as you go about your day and record them. You may also receive advice in your dreams. Leave your journal at your bedside so you can write down what you remember as soon as you wake up.

Establishing a relationship with your spirit guide is a way to connect to the loving guidance that is always with you, even when you are feeling sad or discouraged. The guides have a useful perspective that can encourage you to make choices that will help you to find peace. There is no need to feel alone or abandoned because your spirit guide is always there and loves you unconditionally.
