Ann – A Timely Message Oct 29, 2021

I had seen Ann, a corporate CEO, for different physical and work-related issues. In this particular session an elderly woman immediately presented herself. She said she needed to tell Ann something about her home. She then took me on a room by room “tour” of a beautiful, grand house. Furthermore, she was proud of her home and the things she had collected in her travels. I was astounded by a massive, intricately carved bedroom set, with antique dolls resting in a row on the...

Ancestor Altars - Connect while the Veil is Thin... Oct 15, 2021

Ah, Halloween… a very popular holiday these days! It started as the Celtic/pagan festival of Samhain, to welcome the harvest and usher in the “dark part of the year.”

Celebrants believed that the barriers between the physical world and the spirit world break down at this dark time, allowing more interaction between humans and denizens of the Otherworld. In ancient Europe, many pagan celebrations of the dead took place in the fall and consisted of bonfires, dancing, and...

Empaths and Energy Signatures Sep 11, 2021

Empaths! A lot of people are relating to that term these days. Did you know there are three specific kinds of empaths according to your Energy Signature? The Priest, Lover and Gardener are all different energy types that have empathic qualities. Empaths sense other people’s “stuff”. The specific ways that you sense other people’s “stuff” depends on these types within your Energy Signature. Do you energetically take on, tune in, or flow with others? ...

Somewhere, Over the Rainbow Sep 03, 2021

It’s been over a year since I wrote my “Corona Care'' series (back when we were calling it Corona) and since then our lives have been transformed. We are experiencing ongoing changes in how we live, eat, work, recreate and socialize - and a kind of whiplash versus linear progress in those changes. Influences both internal and external continue to evolve rapidly. Finding the stillness to contemplate, and remain open to what’s possible, can be challenging.

Accelerated shift is...

Emerging from Covid – One Interaction at a Time May 20, 2021

I’m going to take a break from PAST lives storytelling to address our current state of affairs.

Coming out of Covid evinces an odd and contradictory set of feelings and thoughts. Excited, fearful, relieved, anxious, exhausted...I’ve heard this described recently as languishing.  Languishing means “lack of vitality, failing to make progress” or “being forced to remain in an unpleasant place or situation.” During the pandemic I’ve noticed this...

Healing a Past Life Wound - from the NOW! May 13, 2021

Once again, what draws our attention most is when we have some physical issue show up. Usually the causes are many - physical, emotional, and energetic. The energetic aspect can also have lots of layers to it. Often in past lives we see multiple instances of an injury or some dynamic playing out again and again. Addressing all of the practical current causes, plus lifting some of the past life influences, can make for a more profound difference in the degree of healing.

Linda: Just the...

Karmic Past Life Wounds - with a Stranger! May 06, 2021

In Buddhism we are encouraged to think of - and treat - every person as if they were your mother. This helps generate compassion and acceptance of all who we encounter. The truth is, they actually could have been your mother in a past life (or brother, lover or or best friend)! It’s an ever-changing cast of characters and roles from life to life.

When my daughter was 3 yrs old, I was pulling the “do this because I say so I’m your mother” power play. I’ll never...

Past Life Wounds Leave Strong Impressions Apr 20, 2021

Some people are curious about their past lives for no particular reason. I don’t do what I call “past life fishing trips.” They can be interesting but often are not particularly relevant to this life! Accordingly, I let past lives arise naturally during a session; in that case, they are always related to a client’s current experience. The past life can serve to explain a physical issue, or give insight into a psychological, emotional or relational dynamic.

Releasing Past Life Wounds of Ancestors Apr 13, 2021

We are connected to our ancestors physically and energetically. The new field of epigenetics is discovering how we literally carry those experiences in our DNA. We choose a particular lineage to be born into, and sometimes our task is to heal something in the “family line.” I was still just a student in energy healing school when an unexpected healing happened in class. Not exactly a past life, but involving many past lives… and not hers, but related to her...

How Past Life Wounds Show up in Present Time Pain Apr 06, 2021

When we die and leave this body behind, the soul moves on - and on. What carries through into our next lives is the progress we’ve made, lessons learned, and embodied patterns from previous lifetimes. Some of these historical “records” are leftovers that no longer serve a purpose in the present lifetime.

John was in his 20’s when he came to see me for the first time. He was having severe chest pain and...

Past Life Trauma Underlying a Chronic Condition Mar 31, 2021

Welcome to Energy Healing Stories! After years of practice as an energy healer, I have identified various themes such as Past Lives, Ghost Busting, Communication with Spirits, Life’s Purpose, Engagements with Animals, Land Energies and Devas - and more.

A phrase one of my students coined is, “You can’t make this shit up!” It’s true; this work is amazing, every time. After each story I share some insights I have on the subject at hand.

First up: Healing Past Lives...

A Happier(!) Spring? Mar 18, 2021

Welcome Spring Equinox! As Carly Simon sang, “Anticipation… is keeping me wa-aa-aa-iting…” We can now envision returning to socializing, travel and attending events in the near future. So we are planning! Hopeful! Oh, the places we’ll go… even if it’s just the coffee shop, gym or museum. It’s within our grasp if we just stay the course a little longer.  It will be a new normal but much will stay with us; WFH, masks in flu season, Zoom...
