I love talking to dead people.
An odd statement, I know. But I really do.
I returned from a mediumship workshop in Mission Viejo earlier this month taught by acclaimed mediums James Van Praagh and Lynn Probert with several friends where we flexed our psychic muscles.
My friends laughed when I said I love these workshops because I get to work with "fresh meat."
That’s a technical and evolved term for people I’ve never met that will let me talk to their dead relatives and friends for the purpose of facilitating communication with a loved one.
What I find fascinating is that some of the best readings I received were from complete newbies.
In fact, a lot of the attendees were under the misconception that this workshop was actually a lecture and that they would be learning about mediumship in the theoretical, not in the practical.
As in "We’re throwing you in front of a stranger! Go be psychic, ok?"
No big deal.
After this fantastic, vulnerable, and exciting process- here’s what I’ve come away with.
Stop pretending you aren’t powerful.
Seriously, stop. I’m pretty over it.
I really do believe this quote from Marianne Williamson,
“Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, 'Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous?' Actually, who are you not to be?"
If we really are powerful, and not just along for the ride of whatever the world (or our family, or our boss, etc.) wants to do with us-then we’ve got some explaining to do.
Watching psychic virgins give dead on readings to strangers really made me think about the amazing abilities we all have at our disposal.
At the workshop, we were taught to imagine a huge column of gold light emanating from the ground and up to the sky.
When we stood in the light, we were stepping into our power.
What a perfect tool for all of us who want to feel more empowered!
It’s the metaphorical phone booth that Clark Kent goes into to become Superman.
Hear me now, if someone with no previous training can give me amazing details about the life and death of my beloved grandma, imagine what we can do in our everyday lives.
Being powerful is a practice and a choice.
The first act of power is allowing yourself to know what you want.
What do you want?
If you don’t know what you want, or you are afraid to claim it- personal power will always be just out of your reach.
Will knowing what you want and getting it change a situation or relationship in your life?
Does that scare you?
Will changing your life be inconvenient?
It will be, change is rarely convenient.
But connecting to your powerful soul and listening to it’s yearnings is a hell of a great way to live.
Stop all of this nonsense about limitation- not qualified enough, not lovable enough, not knowledgable enough, not having enough.
We live in an abundant universe where everything is possible.
I’m on to you- I can see your magnificence from here, even If you can’t.
Just step into your power, it’s right there waiting for you.
