Have We Discovered Proof Of Telepathy?

Some exciting research in India suggests that telepathy can be seen to occur via an MRI scanner. The International Journal for Yoga report that a group at the National Institute of mental health and neuroscience used an MRI scanner to measure the response of the experiment with the very latest technology.

In the experiment a famous ‘mentalist’ known for his telepathic skills was monitored while he carried out what appeared to be a successful telepathic reading of a subject in another MRI scanner. The mentalist Mr Gerard Senehi brain showed “significant activation of the right parahippocampal gyrus after successful performance of a telepathic task” the other person being monitored showed activity in the left side.

They concluded that “The findings of this study are suggestive of a limbic basis for telepathy and warrant further systematic research.”

I firmly believe we are heading towards a time where we will be able to scientifically prove psychic and paranormal abilities and that we are evolving our consciousness rapidly and  in such a way that our psychic, telepathic and empathic abilities are rapidly increasing.

Have you ever had a telepathic experience? Do you believe psychic ability will ever be scientifically proven and is that important to you?

A special message for you if you are single at Christmas

Along with my Christmas survival guide, I wanted to send out a special message to you if you are single at Christmas.

Christmas is one of those times that can turn up the volume of our emotions.  That’s great if we’re feeling happy, excited and loved up, but not so great if we are single and feeling alone in the world.

As always, being single isn’t in itself the problem.  It’s the way we think about it.  That’s not necessarily easy when we are up against stereotypes of lonely singles lurking around in the shadows of happily snuggled up couples and close knit families, but the thing about stereotypes is that they really don’t reflect reality.

The statistical fact is that, if you are single, you are definitely not alone.  There are millions of single people across the UK, and indeed across the world.

Nor does single automatically mean that you are lonely.  As a single friend of mine always says, ‘Yes, you sometimes feel alone.  But not half as alone as you can feel in a bad relationship’.

If you want to connect with others around this time, there is always a way.  Do a bit of volunteering for a cause that’s close to your soul or even arrange a singles get together.

Her suggestion is that there are actually a few advantages that you can really work about being single.  Like, a far greater degree of freedom in being able to create the day you want.

‘Actually, I always used to put myself on the Christmas rota in jobs where everyone else was desperate to get the day off,’  she said.  ‘I had some great times working the Christmas shifts in restaurants and even as a hospital cleaner.  Wherever you are, there’s usually a lovely atmosphere at this time of year.’

Along with that, she says singles have a lot more ability to pick and mix from traditions that they want to observe and those they can release.  ‘If I want to have spaghetti bolognaise and ice cream for lunch,’ she explains, ‘there’s no one saying, but where’s the turkey?’

You can really go to town in creating a nurturing day of celebration in your own style, whether it’s immersing yourself in an entire box set of your favourite series whilst munching through mince pies or going for a bracing winter walk followed by a warm bath and a hot chocolate.

Or you can feed your soul by reading spiritual books, do something creative, or even spend an entire day reading through all of the articles on this site and then diving over onto Inspire Your Soul to watch films on all things spiritual.

Whatever you do, I hope that you find the path to peace and harmony and I wish you all good things with all the love in my heart.  It would be fabulous if all of you singles out there posted comments about how you’re going to spend the day to connect with and even inspire others who read this.

Loads of love,

Your Xmas survival guide

The holiday period can be a magical time of year, but it can also be a time when our expectations go one way and our experience goes another.  I hope with all my heart that you have a wonderful time over Christmas, but if that doesn’t look likely, here’s a few tips on how to get through the season intact.

1: Embrace the Christmas message, remember that everyone is doing their best and come from a place of unconditional love, even if people seem out to push your buttons.  Christmas can be an emotional time for many people as it stirs up ghosts of Christmas past, childhood memories and deep psychological issues.  Rub a white candle with oil and visualise unconditional love and peace fill the atmosphere.

2: If you are one of many people who are facing Christmas in the throes of grieving someone who has passed, a recent lost a lover or just generally feeling lonely, remember it’s just a day.  You can spend it quietly if you want to, treat it as a day of indulgence when you spoil yourself with all of your favourite foods and films, or think about doing some Christmas charity work.  Buy a smudge stick (sage wrapped in string which is used for purification) smudge your home and visualise all the past being cleared.

3: Leave the expectations alone.  Christmas tensions can come from wanting everyone to be happy and everything to go perfectly.  Be gracious and grateful for the present and let go of any fantasies of how you think things should be.  Buy a rose quartz and carry it in your pocket. It is the unconditional love stone and will heal your heart if you feel hurt.  Make the most of the day, even if you drop the potatoes and everyone falls asleep in front of the telly in the afternoon.

4: Keep it all on even keel and stay out of dangerous territory.  If you know that certain topics always end up in a row, avoid them.  You can be warm and loving and spread good cheer and take a wide berth around anything that has always ended in a Christmas argument every other year. Visualise a pink light around the room and people filled with unconditional love.

5: Grab some time on your own or with your partner, even if it’s just for a post lunch walk.  It will help you stay grounded and centred and at least you can be the beacon of towering strength even if everyone else starts getting cabin fever and snapping at each other.

6: Enjoy everything in moderation.  It’s just one day a year, so allow yourself some treats but keep the balance going.  Drink plenty of water, try and get a walk in and watch the alcohol consumption.  You don’t want to fall over into an argument after one too many sherries and if you totally over indulge you’ll just feel terrible.

7: Sticking to neutral topics even means staying out of any debates about Christmas itself!  Make it a day of tolerance where you at least are going to respect that everyone has their own beliefs and way of enjoying themselves.

May you have a fabulous time whatever you are doing. Sending loads of love

The Trust Fund – Healing the Hurt of Betrayal

Sometimes people choose to have a psychic reading because they want to understand why someone has betrayed their trust and what the spiritual answer is. There are as many ways for our trust to be breached as there are relationships. A friend can betray a confidence, we can discover our partner has been cheating on us, a co-worker or even a superior can take credit for our idea at work. Our creative idea can be plagiarised by someone we shared the concept with. That promising internet date turns out not to be as single as their profile stated or worse, they are not even who they say they are, and we discover instead that we have been corresponding with a scammer.

When our trust has been betrayed our confidence is shaken – hence the term ‘con’. Often instead of feeling anger towards the person who has broken our trust, we feel humiliated, and turn our feelings inwards. How could we have been so stupid, so gullible? We doubt our ability to sum up someone’s character and question our decision making process – all of which add to the feelings of humiliation and being let down.

So when our trust has been breached what lessons are there to be learned and how can we learn to trust again?

Whether or not you decide to give the person another chance will of course depend on your relationship and the other party’s ability to admit their betrayal and apologise. You both have to be open about your feelings and discuss what made them act the way they did. Obviously trust has to be earned and can be destroyed very easily – it can take years to build and be destroyed in seconds. It is up to you to decide if you can forgive and give them another opportunity to prove they are trustworthy.

However if you feel that the betrayal is too deep and you have to let the relationship go, then on a soul level you need to understand that betrayal may be a pattern for this person. They had an opportunity to act in a different way with you but sadly, were not yet at a stage in their soul growth where they could. The flip side of betrayal is of course our own boundaries and beliefs. Do you have a history of attracting people who consistently let you down? Do you think all men are liars or that nobody is to be trusted? Be honest here. Our thoughts create our reality and if we believe there are no honest, reliable people out there then all we will attract are liars and people who don’t keep their word. If this rings a bell with you then resolve to change this belief and replace it with a positive one such as ‘I only attract people with the same beliefs in honesty, loyalty and integrity as myself’.

Did you get a bad ‘vibe’ or feel that something wasn’t quite right but ignored it? If this is the case then the soul lesson is to pay attention to what your own psychic intuition is telling you next time. Also, if you have been internet dating for a while but seem to be attracting people who aren’t what their profiles claim, then it may be the universe is telling you something – you’re not going to meet the person you’re looking for on the net! While internet dating works for some people it’s not the answer for everyone. And if you are corresponding with people who work overseas it is always a good idea to read up on common ‘scams’ on dating sites.

As any psychiatrist or profiler will tell you, sadly there are people out there who are so adept at deceiving people they can even fool the professionals and lie detectors. If you are a victim of someone like this then understand there is nothing to be ashamed of. If you have lost money then it is vitally important you set aside any feelings of shame or humiliation and contact the police – otherwise you allow the person to move on to their next victim.

If you feel you will never be able to trust again, remember, you are a person worth getting to know. Value yourself and others will reflect that value. Your friendship, love, support and trust is something people should have to prove they are worthy of. There is nothing wrong with taking time to make sure people are trustworthy and that they continue to respect and value the trust you have placed in them.

The Meme Machine – The Quantum Evolution Shift

How do we evolve? Today we’re at a key point in history when a massive transformation is taking place on a global level. Richard Dawkins first coined the term ‘meme’ in his book The Selfish Gene where he put forward the theory that we’re don’t just evolve via our genes but by our memes – ideas that spread from person to person to a point where they become mainstream and bring about a shift in a population. When we stop to think about it and look back at history, we can say there is no genetic difference between us and people who lived thousands of years ago. There is however a huge difference between the knowledge and ideas we share – so we can clearly see the effect ideas – or memes, have had.

What Richard Dawkins refers to as a meme can of course be linked to Unified Field Theory in quantum physics – that all is connected, and Jung’s theory of the Collective Unconscious. Jung’s theory also makes sense when placed in the context of quantum physics as he described the Collective Unconscious as a body of energy which lives forever, although Jung formulated his theory decades before the advent of quantum physics. Interestingly enough, Jung said that all life forms with a nervous system shared the Collective Unconscious – and that includes animals once again putting this great thinker ahead of the latest ‘meme’ which acknowledges that our animals have a consciousness and emotions. Jung’s ‘memes’ which are now almost universally accepted, were not only ahead of his time but we can see how they have aided us in evolving our knowledge of the human mind.

When it comes to our minds, neuroplasticity has shown us that our brains can grow new neural pathways as we accept new ideas and to accommodate new behaviours. So, can memes actually aid us in making huge evolutionary steps not only in our lives but also quite literally, in our minds? I firmly believe they can.

We’re all the product of memes whether we like it or not. When we’re young we’ve obviously exposed to our parent’s memes and then those of our family, friends and teachers. The good thing is if we were exposed to negative memes when we were growing up, we can choose to replace them with positive ones as we get older and as we’ve said our brains can literally be ‘re-wired’ to accept the new meme.

If we return to Unified Field Theory and the Collective Unconscious one final time and then look at how memes take hold, we can then fully understand how one person choosing to change the memes they believe in can impact on the whole as these ideas begin to flow from one person to another until they become accepted by many.

In this time of Quantum Shift I’ll be talking more about memes and how they affect us as well as adding new Quantum Creating videos on YouTube.

So, choose the memes you want to see reflected in your world and know that by changing your thoughts, you can literally transform your world and that of others.

Letting Go of Regret: Healing the Soul and Spirit

As we head towards the end of the year we often find ourselves looking back at our goals not only for the past 12 months but also what we did or didn’t achieve in the past. What did you reach? Did you find that perfect person? That career break? When we look back we often have regrets – we look at missed opportunities, situations where we wished we had acted differently. Regret is a very complex emotion that is mixed up with sorrow, remorse and wishing we could go back and get a second chance.

Researchers have discovered that people experience a deeper sense of regret over missed love opportunities than they usually do over work, friendships or education. If you’re one of the people experiencing regret what’s the spiritual lesson and is there anything we can do to move on and heal from regret?

On an emotional level long term regret usually arises from unanswered questions. If we have missed an opportunity in say our career – we can learn from this and try again. Perhaps we left school without getting the qualifications we wanted and have been stuck in a dead-end job. The fact is we can do something about this – we are never too old to go for our dreams. We can get the answer to the question ‘What if . . .?’

Many clients ring for a psychic reading to ask about past relationships and regrets about the past. When it comes to a regrets around relationships this is where we can get imprisoned in long term sorrow, beating ourselves up over choices we made and wondering if we could have done things differently. Getting the answer to our question ‘What if . . .?’ can be a lot more difficult especially if we are no longer in contact with the other person or we parted on bad terms.

Moving past relationship regret first involves understanding there were two people involved in the situation. You were both at different stages of soul growth. First see what lesson you have learned. If we can see there is a soul lesson and a take out from the experience – even a negative one, it allows us to see we have learned from it and we can see it as an opportunity rather than a disaster.

If you still experience regret then you can always write this down in a letter or email even if you are no longer in touch with the person. Write from the heart. You will be surprised how this enables you to heal. If you do know how to contact the person then it is up to you whether you send it or not. You may not receive a reply or if you do depending on the circumstances, it may not be the reply you would like. Only send it if you have no expectations as to the other person’s response. However, no matter what reply you receive (or none) this may answer your unanswered questions, providing you with closure, which again allows you to move on and heal your regrets.

Alternatively, do a meditation. Imagine yourself sitting in a room with an empty chair opposite you. Then imagine the person you feel regret over coming in and sitting opposite you. Now, tell them exactly how you feel. Watch their expression and when you have finished speaking wait for their response. Not only will you receive amazing insights into the situation you will be free and so will they!

Life is too short for regret. The secret to freeing ourselves from it is to see the spiritual lesson behind it, learn from it and move on. The wonderful thing about life is that it is constantly presenting us with new opportunities. State your intention to learn from the situations you regret and step into new outcomes in the future. Remember, there are no regrets in life – just lessons!

Manifesting Abundance: A Special Festive Season Message from Michele

As the festive season approaches it’s all too easy to get caught up in the commercialism that seems endemic with the holidays these days no matter your belief system. We tend to forget the important message behind this time and instead focus on the materialistic side of things – what we may desire in terms of presents and what others expect us to give them. But do we really need this end-of-year orgy of shopping and extravagance to remind us of what giving and true abundance really is?

If you’re like me then you most probably get a bigger buzz watching someone you care about opening a gift you have put love and thought into than you do opening your own gifts. It’s often not about how much you may have spent on the gift either. It could be that inexpensive but hard-to-find item that you know they’ve wanted that you spent hours trawling the internet to find. It could be something you picked up in a flea market or charity shop but you knew nonetheless it was perfect or something you spent hours making. Or, alternatively, it could be something they couldn’t afford but always wanted and you saved hard to surprise them. The look on their face when they see it makes it the best money or use of your time that you ever spent. It’s all about joy and the feelings we can give someone rather than the money we spend. This is what giving is truly about – sharing what you have with someone.

Sharing is linked to abundance. The more we share the more we send a message to the universe that we have plenty TO share – we are leading abundant lives. The universe responds by then sending us more abundance! Remember, abundance doesn’t necessarily equate to how much money you have in the bank or how much you can spend on presents this year. It can be sharing a special meal with friends in your home. Sharing your time and resources, volunteering over the holidays, making your own presents which you wrap in your essence and creativity – not thinking ‘I’m so broke I can’t afford presents’.

When people ask me how they can manifest a more abundant lifestyle I always ask them what they are giving right NOW to attract it. It’s all about energy – if you want more then share more of whatever you have – even if your only present to others is the present of your presence during the holidays. Remember, you are the ultimate unique gift! This is what the holidays and the key to manifesting abundance for you and those you care for is all about.
