The Sun Is Amazing!

The Sun is amazing – it provides life to the entire planet. We need its light, its heat, and its magnetic energy for our survival. The Sun is the center of our universe. It is always with us, even on a grey or dreary days, and its power is infinite.

On June 21st, the longest day of the year, the Sun travels the farthest path in the sky to recalibrate its energy. We refer to this day as the Summer Solstice, this is the day the sun resets its magnetic center.

  1. Pop on some headphones and connect with the vibrations of the Sun
  2. For the first time ever the Summer Solstice ceremony at Stonehenge is being streamed live on June 20th and June 21st. Be a part of the powerful energy awakening!
  3. Make a circle. The Sun is a perfect circle and part of honoring the Sun and connecting with source is creating your own circle, which represents wholeness, strength, abundance, and power. The circle can be as simple as taking rocks and flowers and finding a spot in nature to arrange these vibrant beings to honor the Sun. You can also draw a circle, color it in with your favorite colors and write words of empowerment like Faith, Inspire, or Strength.
  4. Meditate with the Sun. Sit and drink in the essence of the solar energy. Allow your eyes, hands and heart to open so you can digest the many blessings from the Sun while connecting to the millions of people on earth celebrating this yearly reawakening.

Remember, we as a species are in a time of deep spiritual change and awakening. We do not change when things are easy, we rise together as a collective oneness which will help us transcend all perceived problems known or unknown.

Have faith, Dear Hearts, that you have chosen to be part of the greatest awakening humanity has ever known.

My high heart bows to the truth of your essence.

Mindfulness…Less Is More

Spring reminds us to take time for rebirth. In order to plant something new we must prepare the ground, cultivate the soil, pull out the weeds and make space.  Then we water and wait for the emergence of a bud to flower in all its splendor and simplicity. This is happening both in nature and within our hearts. 

Less is more at this time. Go slow with yourself and honor your energy. What aspect of your life would you like to rebirth or reset? Whatever your focus you only need to use five  simple steps.

1. Let Go  
Let go of expectations about what rebirth looks like or feels like. Clearing out the old is essential.  Release clutter in your mind, your heart, your physical body or surroundings. 

2. Be Willing to Change
Intentionally prepare for change.  Remember change is not easy, simply be willing to be willing 

3. Have a Support System  
We do not grow alone, the flower needs the sun and rain to sprout. Ask for help from a friend, a mentor, a spirit guide or your higher power to have the strength to remove or rebirth an aspect of your life. 

4. Kindness to yourself and others
Send love to all you meet, look people in the eye and  send them a smile. As your feet step on the earth imagine your heart is kissing the earth and each step is a vibration of soft compassion for all who step in the same space. 

5. Patience and Grace
This takes time and true growth is a process. 
In his book “No Mud, No Lotus: The Art of Transforming Suffering,” Thich Nhat Hanh reminds us without suffering, there is no happiness. So we shouldn’t discriminate against the mud. We have to learn how to embrace and cradle our own suffering and the suffering of the world, with a lot of tenderness. 

Take this time appreciate the love around you on the earth. I love this website by Amy Melissa Witt on Mindful Gardening  – I hope it speaks to you as well. 

Speaking of mindfulness I am teaching a 3-week class on mindfulness and meditation.  I hope you will join me for the class or commit to deepen your own practice. 


Bright Blessings for rebirth on all levels, 

Melissa 

Extreme Self Care

Dearest soulful being,  

It’s a lot to take in… the loss, loss of life and jobs, loss of feelings of safety and comfort. But it is essential that you feel the feelings so they can move through you. Over the past eight years I have implemented extreme self-care for myself and taught this to my students and my clients around the world. Here are my 6 go to self care practices. Stay safe, positive and well and always live in a high vibration! 

1. Surrender – When it comes to self care surrender may seem a little strange but  surrender means you allow yourself to be held in the moment. As a medium, the gift of surrender means I let go of my ego self, I open up so I can see more deeply into any situation that I’m working on and for my clients. It’s as if I am lifted on a cloud and I’m able to be held in the blank and the emptiness. Allow yourself to surrender to the moment and be present in the now, this will be one of the biggest gifts you can give yourself.  My go-to is the Serenity Prayer. “God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference”. 

2. Rest – Go slow, take it easy.  Extreme self-care means sleep in, take naps, sit and just be. We are all stressed out and fearful of what is next, you are not lazy if you rest.  Give from your abundance and not from your reserve. It is so essential that you put your energy and yourself first so that you have what you need to be there for the other people in your life. This helps you respond to situations with compassion, kindness, observation and empathy. 

3. Meditate – It may seem silly and obvious to say to meditate during chaos but recent studies have shown that as little as 11 hours of cumulative meditation has been shown to actually shift the patterns in the brain, reduce anxiety, boost the immune system, and bring the body into resilience. By cumulative, they mean it could happen over a month or year but 11 hours of meditation total so remember even 5 minutes makes a difference! 

4. Abhyanga – Oiling the body. In Ayurvedic medicine, a body massage with oil is essential. The benefits include increased circulation, calming the nerves, lubricates the joints, better sleep at night and purifies the skin, which is your largest organ.  To start, use warm sesame or coconut oil, perhaps 1/3 cup, then dip your fingers in the oil and apply light pressure to your heart, belly, hands, feet, apply the oil in a circular motion throughout your whole body and then allow yourself to rest and let your body digest the healing benefits. 

5. Tonglen – One of my favorite meditative practices is Tonglen. Here is a meditation led by Pema Chödrön.  It is to focus on relieving suffering for all beings everywhere! I’ve been doing it twice a day.

6. Power Posing – As a teacher of therapeutic yoga I understand the importance of power posing and positioning our bodies. Here is a really fun video by Amy Cuddy about power posing. Remember your body is always listening and responding to how you feel- so enjoy this link to power posing.

7.  Mudras – Mudras are hand poses that can shift the subtle body. I offer insight and instruction every Monday on my Facebook page. Hope you can join me! Here is a peek at what to expect from Mudra Mondays. 

Be well bright beautiful soul, you are more resilient and vibrant than you know. 

All the love in my heart and spirit, 

Melissa 

Five Immune Boosters & Three Guided Meditations

Female crystal healing therapist holding white polished selenite crystal wand. Energy work

Uncertainty can be cause for fear or opportunity. As our world continues to evolve through this pandemic, climate changes and new thought streams I encourage you to see this as part of our shift as humanity. Change can feel scary and depressing but it is necessary to awaken. During this time it’s important to remember We Are all in this Together so let us move forward in community and with unity.

It is an honor to assist you in Growing Your Knowing and to help you live a life full of more light, love and abundance. 

Here are 5 Immune Busters and 3 Guided Meditations just for you!  Stress can cause us to lose enthusiasm for living, can bog down our creativity and cause us to sink into unhealthy patterns. Please enjoy these resources and spend some time in nature during these transitional times.

1. Golden Light. When you wake up, slowly open your eyes and imagine that you are breathing in a new energy by envisioning the air as golden flecks of source energy.  As you inhale imagine you are covered in a beautiful, golden light.  Then as you shower, imagine the water as a dazzling, white energy buzzing around your being and clearing out old negative self defeating thoughts and feelings.  This process helps you clear and beat stress by filling your being with healing positive light. 

2. Your feet are the key. Your feet hold the energy of your whole body.  In reflexology every point on the foot mirrors a part of your body.  Some core points are the toes, which impact the brain, eyes and ears.  The middle of the food holds the kidneys, liver and adrenal glands. The arch of the foot impacts the spine.  You can use a tennis ball to massage the bottom of your foot by putting the ball on the floor and rolling it back and forth.  This will help remove the stuck energy in your feet and energize your body.  Walk barefoot on the earth, allow your big toes to kiss each other to awaken and stimulate the brain and bring both sides of your body into alignment. 

3. Hum.  Humming is a quick and easy way to shift your energy.  It helps by encouraging more breath  to come into your body, it clears out stuck energy in your eyes, brain and mouth.  All that you say, hear, see and think can get trapped in your upper chakras and create a pattern.  Humming breaks up that stale energy and stress by lifting you into a new vibration.  Numerous studies show it actually increases happiness and slows down racing thoughts.  Hum for 20 minutes a day- you can break it up into 5 or 10 minute segments.

4. Ear Massage. Your ears are the center of nerve stimulation for the body. Just like your feet, your ears are full of reflexology points that are directly linked to your brain and nervous system. Research has shown that your ears can even boost your immune system.  The entrance to your ear canal is directly above where we tend to pierce our ear lobes is the heart activation point. Think about the power of gems in the ears.  It has become part of cultures worldwide to pierce the ears and wear gemstones and symbols.  This is not only creating a style; it creates a vibratory energy that actually amplifies your immune system! 

Start by taking off your earrings if you wear them, move your hair away from the ears, take your thumb and first finger dip your finger in either sesame seed oil or coconut oil and begin by rubbing your earlobes in a circular fashion, do both sides.  Then oil the outsides of the ears by sliding the oil along the length of the ears, then pull the  earlobes out, extending the elbows as you pull, then using your pointer fingers, oil the insides of the ears and then pull on the mastoid bone which circles inside the ear itself.  Now rub and oil the backs of your ears. And of course, use your intuition as you massage.  Take 7 – 10 minutes a day to do this.  Remember your ears also digest sound so give them a rest by following up with 10-15 minutes of silence. 

5. Listen to Solfeggio Frequencies. Tones can heal. “Solfeggio frequencies make up the ancient 6-tone scale thought to have been used in sacred music, including the beautiful and well known Gregorian Chants. The chants and their special tones were believed to impart spiritual blessings when sung in harmony. Each Solfeggio tone is comprised of a frequency required to balance your energy and keep your body, mind and spirit in perfect harmony.” Attuned Vibrations.

AwakeKidOnes 2020

Happy 2020! As we move into a new decade we also move into a new time, the power of evolution is at work. You may have heard the terms crystal, indigo or star children. When I was born and could feel, see and hear spirit in 1972 it was not a safe time to show my gifts.  I KNEW without a doubt that “New Kids”,  I call them the Awake KID Ones, are the children who will show humanity the way forward. That is why I have dedicated over 20 years of my life to advance children’s issues on the statewide and national level. And now I am over the moon that Awake Kid One’s are being recognized!  Now here we are in 2019, TIME’s person of the year Greta Thunberg is clearly an Awake Kid One who is speaking her truth and leading a movement to save our earth.  

What defines an Awake Kid One? 
– bright eyes, bright smile and high heart
-Loving intention and charismatic energy 
-Peaceful intentions
-Works from a place of WE vs ME (egoless)
-Speaks kind words and does kind deeds
-Knows things intuitively 
-Love easily and freely
-Feels ageless, always lives with a childlike heart 
– Can be 3-140 years of age – AwakeKids Ones live in the now 

It is imperative that we individually and as a society honor and support intuitive and sensitive kids.  In my own experience being an extra sensitive and feeling misunderstood I turned to alcohol, food and drugs to numb the pain of knowing and feeling different from those around me. I even struggled with depression and had suicidal thoughts and attempts.  Thankfully, today I am clean and sober and released over 150 lbs  and help others to do the same. 

Trauma, according to the American Psychological Association is “ an emotional response to a terrible event like an accident, rape or natural disaster. Immediately after the event, shock and denial are typical. Longer term reactions include unpredictable emotions, flashbacks, strained relationships and even physical symptoms like headaches or nausea. While these feelings are normal, some people have difficulty moving on with their lives.” 

In today’s world children need to prepare for the possibility of a school shooting, a tornado or hurricane or feeling threatened or bullied by others.  The stress and tension has caused children to turn to alcohol and drugs at a young age.  The Adverse Childhood Experiences Study looked at childhood trauma and adult health, the findings were that these traumatic experiences could affect the person even 50 years later. 

International surveys show that traumatic experiences are very common across the world. One study showed that nearly half of all children in the United States are exposed to at least one traumatic social or family experience (Bethell et al, 2014). According to the Center for Disease Control and Prevention, suicide is considered the second leading cause of death among college students, the second leading cause of death for people ages 25–34, and the fourth leading cause of death for adults between the ages of 18 and 65. We all need to support one another as we move into a  new decade. I invite you to share on my facebook page your story about being Awake, send me an email or share a story on my social media  #Awakekidones with your story about how you live in a higher frequency, how your children “know things” and spread empathy and compassion for all.   

We as a species are in a big shift, we are moving from homosapien to homoluminous, science and medicine are seeing huge changes in the babies being born using more of their brain capacities than ever before. Children are being born with higher levels of empathy and love, humanitarian visions and sensitive bodies.
 
Psychological sciences at the University of Missouri released a 20-year study that gained worldwide attention in 2014 that shows infants as young as 2 months old already have basic knowledge of “intuitive physics”.  Most studies into infant cognition use eye-tracking technology — psychologists can tease out what an infant is thinking and what she/he considers to be unexpected by following her/his gaze in different scenarios. This method, called violation of expectation, involves showing babies photos, videos or events that proceed as expected, followed by others that break everyday rules. If the infant understands the implicit rules, he or she will show little interest in an expected situation, but will stare at images of a surprising event.

“We believe that infants are born with expectations about the objects around them, even though that knowledge is a skill that’s never been taught,” Kristy vanMarle, an assistant professor of psychological sciences at the University of Missouri, said in a statement. “As the child develops, this knowledge is refined and eventually leads to the abilities we use as adults.”

Hespos and VanMarle also learned that  infants can do math, Six-month-old infants can discriminate between numbers of dots (if one set held twice as many dots as the other), and 10-month-old infants can pick out which of two cups holds more liquid (if one cup held four times as much liquid as the other). Also at 10 months of age, babies will consistently choose larger amounts of food — such as crackers — in cups, though only if there are no more than three items in any cup.

This is showing the world that we are advancing as a species. 
 
Researcher PMH Atwater LHD from her best selling book “Children of the Fifth World” reports “The greatest talent of the new children is the ability to  abstract and function from the conceptual level. These children are not concrete thinkers. They are adept at the art of conceptualizing, dealing with broad ideas and notions. Forget thinking “outside the box.” For them, the box was never there to begin with. They can tie facts and figures and ideas together and rapidly produce solutions that fit, without having to go through conventional routines. Their minds leap instead of think. That’s why they buckle under “tried and true” methods that demand rote discipline. Kids who abstract get from here to there as if by magic; not because they are wise but because they do not recognize limits. 
A two-year-old child was in a conversation with her mother. She stopped midway, impatiently stomped her feet, and yelled: “I don’t know the word for that yet!” Stop for a moment. How does a child of two know she doesn’t know the word she wants to use at the precise moment she wants to use it? We mistakenly think the new children are wise old souls. This isn’t wisdom at work here–it is the amazing, almost unbelievable ability to abstract knowledge, to know things without knowing. These children are conceptualizers, made to order for the Conceptual Age. The greatest advancement of all advancements in our brain is the prefrontal lobes (both left and right). The prefrontals operate as the seat of judgment, morals, empathy, compassion, and well-being; they moderate social behaviors, decision-making, and personality expression. The prefrontals developed late in the evolution of humankind, becoming a signature feature for distinguishing higher brain development.” 

As we move into a new way of living and leading, be hopeful, be bright and most importantly Be Awake, that is what will shape our earth luminously ..

In 2020 live in your high heart! 

In divine loving service,

Divinity Dives

Have you ever dove head first into your dreams? Have you ever leapt empty handed into the void only to build your wings on the way down? Nine years ago I took the plunge, I call it my Divinity Dive. 
I had been reading people’s energy and loved ones in spirit since I was nine years old.  I had used my intuition in my work in governmental affairs and non-profit management and 10 years ago I spontaneously came out as a Medium on a Maine political television show and soon after people in politics started asking for sessions.  

Then I literally put my future in the hands of my guides and a cardboard sign and it changed my life! I had a very safe and stable position as a lobbyist, I was helping to make deep change in the system representing disability rights, mental health, helping to boost budgets of environmental nonprofit organizations and yet I knew deep inside of me that my soul path was to do my mediumship and soul evolution readings full-time. There is never a  good time to blow up your life, to walk away from a career where you have gained a high caliber reputation and to begin again. When I say to you being a medium was not my choice I mean it! It has always been a part of me but I was always so afraid to take that leap that leap of faith.

I had told three people that the only way I would do this for work was if I met James Van Praagh and he told me to do mediumship full time. Then 10 years ago he came to the Omega Institute in New York. It was at a time when I didn’t have extra money to spend on a workshop but three people, who didn’t know each other, each sent me money that totaled the exact amount I needed for the workshop.  

So off I went to the Omega Institute to meet the man that I had watched on television when I was 15 years old to do the thing that I’ve always been able to do. Within two days of starting the workshop he pulled me up on stage and had me read a person in the audience, after I finished my reading he leaned into me and said, if you can ground down into your divine being you can do this. But you must have no fear and trust absolutely, which means quitting your job and doing this full time. His words felt like warm sunshine on my face and I knew what I had to do.

I returned to Maine and went to my boss Betsy Sweet, who is currently a Democratic Candidate for US Senate, and told her that I needed to leave my position. I loved my work, I loved making a difference but it was time for me to make a difference in a different way.  I left Augusta to drive back home, which is about an hour. As I was driving I was thinking about Omega and the words James had said to me. Thinking, is this real? Is this the right thing to do? And just as I was about to turn around and go back to Augusta and say “wait I made a mistake!” my guides said to me “keep going we have a sign for you just around the next bend”. As I came around the corner I saw an egg truck and on the back it said OMEGA and I knew exactly what I needed to do.

I came home and told my wife I had left my position. She was shocked and little nervous but said “if you can make $5000 by the end of the summer then we can pay our bills.” I had decided to take on a small position to make $800 to do some environmental canvassing. I drove to work one day and at a stoplight I got rear ended. I went to the hospital to get checked out and they said I was fine. I had my car checked out and it was fine also. The next morning I got a call from the insurance company. They said we heard that you got hit in an accident. I said yes, they said are you OK? I said yes. They said, how does $5000 sound for pain and suffering?? And I said yes;) 

The next morning my guides had told me I would have a free office on Main Street in Kennebunk. Free office? How is that even possible? But I’ve learned by now to trust my guides. Later that day I went to an art gallery to meet a friend. When I literally I bumped into a woman in the bathroom and spilled coffee on her she said are you coming to the open house?  I smiled and asked on Main Street in Kennebunk? She said yes, how did you know? I then saw bees in my mind and she said it’s called The Hive and it is a collaborative for local artists. I asked her if she had an Intuitive Medium to do readings.  She said no, do you know someone? Yes, me! She said we cannot pay you. I said no worries I’ll just come for free. I sat in the back on a folding chair at an old card table with a deck of cards and my crystal.  I read for 45 people that night! Back to back 20 minute sessions for what seemed like everyone in town. At the end of the evening she asked, where is your office? I don’t have an office yet but this is what I do. She said we’re trying to create a nonprofit do you know anybody who could help us do that?  My job, previous to being a lobbyist, was creating nonprofits across Maine and Massachusetts and working  with national campaigns.  Yes! She explained we can’t pay you but we could give you a key and you could open the door and help us with this and we would give you the office in the back for free. How does that sound?? I was dancing with the light!

I still had no way of attracting clients so I went into my recycling bin and I took a piece of cardboard and wrote “Readings by Melissa, inquire inside” I had two folding chairs, a card table and a candle. That was nine years ago and within six months I was booking six months out all by word-of-mouth.

I took the leap of faith with my cardboard sign and everything fell into place! I want to personally thank each and every one of you for your support over the past nine years and for Growing your Knowing to awaken within! 

How can YOU do Divinity Diving? 

1. Listen to your heart and ask for help from your higher power and/or guides?
2.  Allow nature to bring you signs from birds, numbers, rainbows and whatever speaks to you.
3. Remember, you are part of the whole of creation and once you quiet your mind and listen synchronicity will appear. 
4. Be open for extraordinary messages through other people
5. Be grateful for where you are and allow the unfolding of your true self to emerge 

I love offering workshops to give you hands on tools and activities to become more centered, energized and intuitive.  Here is a short video on how I teach workshops:  https://growyourknowin.wpengine.com/workshops/

May you be ONE and live in the NOW,

Compassion in Chaos

I’ve spent the past month being compassionate with myself through chaos. Bad things happen but we do not have to allow difficulty to define us, we can rise above challenges and grow.  Let me preface, I am a grateful and appreciative person by nature but when my French press coffee maker exploded, burning my upper thigh from my hip to my knee and as I watched my skin pull back the first thing I thought was “thank goodness it wasn’t my face or my hands!”  The burn measured 20 inches long by 10 inches wide and was absolutely the worst pain I have ever physically experienced! In shock, I drove myself to York Hospital Kennebunk Urgent Care only to find out I could not be treated there and needed to go to Wells, where they treat burns. Because I was in such terrible pain and could not drive, a nurse volunteered to drive me to Wells.  With painful tears I accepted and when I sat in her car, I felt her sister in the car with us (she had passed some time before) and I began to channel for her – Her sister thanked her for taking care of her before she passed and thanked all the members of her family by name.  Spirit was helping me to get away from the physical pain by having me channel her loved ones and now we both were crying! When I arrived the staff, doctors and nurses took me in right away and helped me. I was safe and cared for, I had to surrender. 

It’s never convenient to to be injured, especially when you love what you do and have to reschedule clients who have waited 6 months for an appointment. But with kindness and grace everyone understood.
 I love channeling, I work hard, I take great care of my spiritual, physical, mental and emotional body but sometimes we all have difficult things happen. I want to thank everyone who has reached out and for being so understanding and kind.     

Now I am focused on continuing to heal my burn. I thank my skin each day for being my most beautiful organ and by feeding my vibration with gratitude. I listen to 285 hertz frequencies to regrow my skin, take zinc and vitamin c.  Within the last 3 weeks my skin regrew and my nerve endings are healing. It was a miraculous recovery and I am so very grateful for everyone who reached out and to my guides which helped me tremendously. 

Things may not always go your way.  You will have pain, deaths, unexpected injury or illness but you can find appreciation and gain compassion in chaos. 

Here is my go to list when things are in chaos around me. 

  1. Give yourself permission to breathe deeply and make space
  2. Buy flowers that are bright in color and smell like sunshine

Navigating Geomagnetic Storms & Solar Winds

I’ve always been fascinated by the sun, the beauty of the earth and the possibilities of the stars. When I was 9 my father and I built a mini greenhouse for the science fair on the greenhouse effect. I would ask my science teachers questions about the magnetic field and what’s going to happen when the sun starts creating solar flares and the winds from the sun effect the earth and what will we do about the cracks in the magnetic field?? They said that will never happen! That was almost 40 years ago, and today we are experiencing solar flare activity, solar winds and cracks in the magnetic field. Geomagnetic storms are becoming mainstream and research shows that some people and animals can feel the effects.

The geomagnetic storms, which are caused by the solar flares and solar winds, are causing massive upheavals including electromagnetic activity which disrupts radio communications, causes radar to malfunction and power blackouts, solar winds that disrupt the internet and cable tv. The storms also cause issues in our physical bodies such as  tension, aggression, vertigo, and can also enhance intuition.

I’m telling you this not to scare you but to empower you. As our earth shifts we have the opportunity to connect with both the earth and the magnetics of the earth. And as the earth is changing we have the unique opportunity to shift our perceptions and adapt to new solutions. A great resource for more information is Spaceweather.com>

So how can you actually help the earth and impact the magnetic field?

1. The Heart Math Institute teaches how our own magnetics can shape the earth and impact our environments.https://youtu.be/5-Vk6ITY5iA

2. There are innumerable ways to reduce carbon emissions, here are just a few.
a. walk and bike when you can
b. reduce your intake of dairy and beef
c. Carpool whenever possible
d. turn off the lights when your not home 

3.  To reduce the physical effects of the geomagnetic storms carry a piece of Orgonite and/or keep one next to your bed. Orgonite is a substance that is made of quartz and resin developed by Dr. Wilhelm Reich, who has a town in Maine named after him. Orgonon Maine!
 
4. Talk to a tree. Connect to the roots of the earth and have gratitude for the earth. 

5. Raise your vibration through eating superfoods and greens, listen to Solfeggio tones, and love with abandon.

6. Read A New Earth by Eckhart Tolle.

We are living in an amazing time when our collective energy can shift the earth!

May you be ONE and live in the NOW,

Healing Power of Mediumship: An Interview with Val Williams

In 2016, I planned a trip to England to study at the Arthur Findlay College of Metaphysical Studies, the world’s foremost school on psychic development. I had been there the year before and it was transformative. It’s a very magical and spiritual place with grounded, fabulous teachers from around the world. Weeks before I was set to leave, I was jolted from a sound sleep at 3:30 one morning by a bubble of blasting yellow light. From it spoke my beloved guides: “Val Williams,” was all my guide said.

So in the dim pre-dawn light I raced to my computer and typed it in; she was teaching a course at the Arthur Findlay College one week before I was scheduled to arrive! I immediately registered, changed my flight, and returned to bed.

That morning at my office I sat with a new client. Before he left he said, “You MUST meet Val Williams.” He went on to tell me how she changed his life with her compassionate soul and the training course he attended.

I reached Arthur Findley in a state of expectation. From the moment Minister Val Williams opened her mouth I knew I was on my divine pathway. At that point, I’d had many spiritual teachers, including the Dalai Lama, but she clearly outlined my current circumstances, described my guides, and warned me about taking on too much. But more importantly, I discovered she was the voice I’d been hearing throughout my childhood. When I told her as much, she explained that for years she would sit in meditation and send out bubbles of light and love to children around the world who were in difficult situations. Although many people have reported meeting her in this spirit form, she has no memory of these encounters.

I believe that there are guideposts in this life that help us to overcome and stay the course. Val Williams was that for me. She came into my life at a time I was healing my relationship with my father as he was dying. This experience to date has been one of the most profound of my lifetime.

I am honored and humbled to interview this beautiful soul who is living a life of being of service and traveling the world to help others heal through her gifts of mediumship.

My Interview with Val Williams can be found on my homepage just below my blog posts!

Val has been serving spirit all her life and has been conducting readings and platform demonstrations for nearly 35 years. She is compassionate, truthful and offers advanced trainings to mediums around the globe. She is the author of “Two World as One” and has meditation CDs. Minister Williams also gives to charities around the globe to help children and hospice, among others. She is a member of the SNU and teaches at the Arthur Findley College of  Metaphysical Studies and other schools around the globe.

In her own words “I was born with gifts of mediumship which, as a child, seemed more of a curse than a gift – voices in my head spoke of events which later happened, and when grown-ups spoke I would know if they were telling the truth or not. Many times my speaking my mind earned me a smack and so I became quite defiant – loyal to my mediumship, but not willing to tell people what I was thinking.”

“The development of mediumship should be a joy, and since the age of 33, when I found my way to a Spiritualist church every day has held its own joys. Working with and for Spirit fills me with a sense of purpose and the need to promote the truths of the Spirit world encourage me to always work in the name of truth. Whether I am working privately, or within workshop situations, or doing public demonstrations of mediumship I have only one goal – to be accurate and true to those who trust me.”  – Minister Val Williams  http://www.internationalmedium.co.uk/
