Higher Self Bookstore TEST

Perception???

Perception???

How do you look at the world, your relationships? It amazes me how two people can be looking at the same thing and see two different things. It’s Cherry Festival here in Traverse City. Energy is high, lots of people and things to do. Some people bury their heads in the sand or run away screaming while others embrace it and go running into the crowd saying “Yes!!” (I am one of those running into the crowd.) Do you prejudge what your experience is going to be? Where have those judgments stopped you from taking a step forward? My mantra for the past month has been “It’s all in your perception.” I get to chose in each moment. Love or Fear. It’s all part of the Law of Attraction. If I have prejudged on up coming event as being an awful experience that is exactly what I’ll receive. I prefer to go into the next moment with fascination and let the events unfold.

I am back full time as the manager of the Higher Self and I’m running into this saying “YES”. Look for new designs on the website. My goal is to get products online. Do you have a preference for which items you’d like to see? I would be grateful for any input. I have always felt like this job is more of a ministry and a place to serve those seeking their higher power/self and would like to direct it towards your desires.

There are a lot of classes this month. Daniele is teaching Reiki II this Sunday, July 11^th and also Learn to Channel class on the 19^th. Jennifer and Josh are teaching Ethereal Clearing Workshop. Both have written about them in their articles.

Sherry Lord is visiting from Florida and has several classes, lectures and readings scheduled from July 25^th thru the 29^th. www.liquidlightnamara.com Check it out!!

Ricki is at a Gem Show this weekend and we all are anxiety awaiting her arrival with all those pretty rocks and jewelry. There seems to be a shipment in everyday of new products and books. We have new summer dresses, a new line of oils. Where am I going to put everything? Aaahhh, the life a manager and I wouldn’t want any other life. Thank you for allowing me to be a part of yours and thank you for being a part of mine.

Peace,

Carol

The Energies of July

By Daniele DeVoe, Channel and Healer

The Rune for July is: Algiz: Protection. Algiz urges us all to learn to be in command of our emotions. And no surprise that this Rune is the one to be drawn. Why? Because humans everywhere have recently experienced a huge shift in their emotional bodies.

For most women, this emotional evolution has been a bit chaotic and difficult but still within the realm of the known.

For most men, this shift has been difficult. Why? Because it is part of the awakening, empowering and balancing of the female energies… the acceptance of our world’s transition to matriarchal energies. Of course there are many men who have dealt with their emotional bodies and worked to create harmony and equality between the male and female energies and for them, their job during this emotional evolution has been to offer support and assistance to their less prepared brothers.

This Rune encourages us all to find the middle road rather than to swing with the highs and lows of out-of-control emotions. It also promises that this too shall pass… and quite soon…

(Reference book: The Book of Runes, by Ralph Blum

The Osho Zen Tarot Card for July is Guidance

Are you eager for new levels of guidance from your Inner Self or your own Guides and Guardians? This card assures us that the guidance is readily available and it reminds us to listen… It’s a giggle to me that this card came up (and I promise I picked this card randomly… eyes closed!) the same month that we are having a class on ‘How to Channel’ at the store.

Thanks to ‘The Shift’ and the continued dissolving of the veils that separate dimensions, our guides are much more accessible than ever before. The Guidance card is simply a confirmation of that and a suggestion that, through meditation, prayer, contemplation… through your focused intention to work with beings of 100% pure light… you, too, can channel energy, information and grace.

Namaste’!

Passion increases within my soul

Within my body

Within my mind

It is a powerful blessing

Especially when we find the Grace therein

The grounded space where heaven meets earth and is manifest.

You and Me.

Great Goddess! Great Goodness! Greatness. That I Am!

Lately I find many people feeling life moving very quickly and dramatically. Then there are those few who are even-keeled always! What gives?

Great Goodness!

I have been watching "The Secret" again. Valuable to infuse myself with that information. The Law of Attraction. Powerful medicine.

My horoscope this week read: "...is there any way in which you've become so focused on the map that you have neglected the territory?"

I think that we each have to look at where we are compromising our health, integrity, most valuable relationships and general well-being for things that keep us in drama, chaos and ignorance.

Ignoring our birthright...our Divine Nature...the ordinary moments of peace. You know, the moments when "nothing" much is happening. Yes. That's the ticket!

I was challenged last week to observe, once again, the times when I am not @ peace to see what I might be doing to disturb that peace. Because, we've all heard, and I know it's true from experience (so do you, by the way) that the peace is there underneath the rollercoaster and drama and "happenings".

I challenge you to watch for the peace. Fighting against the wars in our world is a war. Seeking out the peace in the moments of our lives is peace.

Om Shanti, lovies!

Thanks for being my reminder.

Message from Jennifer, Channel and Hypnotherapist...

The time has come...

Many of you know that I have been working with Spirit Guides and other beings on the "other side" for a while now. If you have experienced a reading with me, you have witnessed how personal and clear our helpers communicate. Over the years, when I started working with Guides and Angels, they gave me profound information that I was able to use in my own life to help me understand the workings of things internally and externally (my beingness and things throughout humanity and the world). They have also asked me to do certain things to help assist others which includes becoming certified with hypnotherapy. When I asked them "why hypnotherapy", at the time, they expressed the effectiveness of the tool with clearing out "filters" (subconscious clutter). If people had clear or clearer filters, not only would their vibrations raise, their health improve, manifestations come more easily and quickly, but they would have a much easier time hearing them. Since then, I have been as obedient as I could be (yes, sometimes I put up a small argument ha-ha).

Here's the best part...!

Most of us hear or have heard of "the shift" that is taking place, as well as 2012 and whatever that may bring. From what "they" (the Archangels and Ascended Masters) have explained, it is extremely important that people be able to shift (raise their vibrations, become more conscious, etc.) as quickly and efficiently as possible because of, or more accurately, "to help with" the shift. When we become more conscious, not only does it affect us as individuals and the collective, but "they" experience a shift as a result as well. They have an invested interest in what goes on here. We evolve = they evolve

My husband and I have been asked to make specific information available to the general public to help with the process...What used to take people "lifetimes" can be accomplished in a few weeks, or even a few hours!

Helping people just one-on-one is no longer adequate because they have expressed that the more people who become conscious (quickly), the better. The workshop has been designed, very specifically, by Mother Earth, two Ascended Masters, and Mother God. Sound weird? It may, but it is true. What they have done is set up, what they call the most self-empowering and effective way to date to raise consciousness by putting together the 3 Part workshop titled "Ethereal Clearing". It is designed in three parts to help reach people who may be at different stages of awareness and we have been asked by them to hold it in different areas around Michigan and eventually the country. It really is a big deal

Part 1 is the free Lecture(suggested donation of only $15) and is required in order to participate in Part 2 or Part 3. It covers information on what the "Higher Self" actually is, vibrations, filters, etc. Part 2 (which can be taken without Part 3) teaches self-hypnosis so that people can have the capability to release, heal and shift anything in their filter that keeps them from expanding! Hypnosis is not what most people think it is, but you can have a much better and accurate understanding of it if you attend the free Lecture. Part 3 is a unique oracle card technique that is an "ethereal telephone" so that you can clearly and effectively communicate with "them" (your Guides, the Archangels, etc.). One of the best parts of this workshop is that as you use the tools, your vibrations raise and you will be able to more easily communicate with "higher" beings than your Guides such as the Ascended Masters! Your Guides want to help clear filters and with this technique, they can let you know what is in your "filter", what is ready to be released and the most effective approach to releasing while using hypnosis (or sometimes other tools that you will learn about in the workshop that work in conjunction with hypnosis).

The brochure (attached) goes into some more detail about the program; however, if you are able to attend the Free Lecture, you will fully understand the importance of what they are teaching. The Lecture, alone, can piece together so much of what most people have already been learning about, so I encourage you to join us in Traverse City for the upcoming dates!
