It's not your fault.

It's not your fault that difficulty is the order of the day and the future looks bleak and cloudy.


What is your fault, however, is believing such a negative reality.

Changing Your Life With Past Life Regression


I had been grappling with life decisions and did not seem to be able to find any solutions or really good direction. I had learned about Past Life Regression from the Oprah Show and decided I would see what it was like. I found a Regression Therapist on the web, placed the call, and set an appointment. The Past Life Regression Therapist requested that I begin writing down the questions I would like to have answered. I arrived at the Regression Therapist’s office. We began by gathering information each about the other to assist her in the process. As I would be the individual doing the speaking, there was nothing to hide from the Therapist. The more she understood at a high level about my questions and the reason I was asking them, the better she could frame the questions.As I closed my eyes and began to relax, I could hear her voice as it urged me to engage my imagination and I began to descend further and further into a very peaceful place – still hearing her voice – still being aware of the other ambient sounds in her office. And we began to descend a staircase. I remained totally in control and in knowing. Upon reaching the bottom of this staircase, I found myself in the Hall of Wisdom. I was guided to be drawn to a particular door or opening. As I stood before the door that had drawn my attention, I following the guidance I was given and described the door I had chosen. I realized I was speaking in a clear, uniform manner. I was speaking about what I was seeing and about what I was sensing and feeling. This regression experience was tapping into all of my sense. I stepped through this doorway into the first scene in my past life. I became aware of being in a very different Time and Place and Body. Note: In Past Life Regression Therapy scenes of what appear to be a lifetime typically appear. One can either believe in reincarnation or own these scenes OR, one can simply believe that Spirit teaches us in formats that we understand, such as scenes from a life. I described where I was, how I looked, and what was occurring. I found myself amazed at how comfortable that description felt – how unconcerned I was about being or a different sex, origin, time and place. I was guided to take myself into the scene as the individual I had described and to determine what was occurring. While relaying the scene and conversations that were going on in the scene, I was amazed by how real it all felt. The feelings were so intense as to cause me to feel anger and frustration. I was living this experience beyond my mind – into my emotions. I moved forward to the next important scene. In the second scene, I found myself preparing to leave the village. Members of the tribe were looking at me with a mixture of disgust, disbelief and concern. I was committed to find a new home for the “tribe”.In the third scene, I was back in the village I had left. I was older (by the lines around my eyes). I had found a more lush and verdant valley for us to live in. In the village I found the “tribe” much diminished due to disease and famine. And those who were still there had no desire to leave despite it all. My feelings ranged from utter sadness to incredulous disbelief - sadness for the village and disbelief that more were not willing to follow me to an area of abundance and beauty. I wondered how often this was happening in my lifetime….how often did I not consider other options? Upon leaving this scene, I was directed to transition to the edge of the Spirit World. This transition was smooth and easy. As I drifted in my spirit form, I was guided to invite in a Spirit Guide. This Guide would provide understanding and insights that were pertinent in this past life. My Guide appeared as a wise old man with a long flowing robe. He indicated we were to call him “Owl”. My Therapist posed several of the questions we had prepared. We did not what might be addressed as Spirit is not always predictable in that manner. “Owl” spoke to me of the areas of my life I had been struggling with. His words of wisdom resonated strongly. I knew he was a Guide who had spoken before, in my dreams. My first question dealt with a life change situation. I felt like there was no growth in my job and was concerned I would be unsuccessful if I followed my passion. “Owl” answered that the past life I had experienced was all the answer I needed. He spoke further about the elements that often go into a significant life change – potential feelings of being shunned, of having to “go it alone”, and fear of failure. By “Owl” sharing the “landscape of potential possibilities”, my next steps became clear. Once the session was complete, my Therapist assisted me in returning to the present moment. As I sat there in the twilight of the trance, my Therapist shared some of the information I had verbalized while in trance. The information was very telling and helped me understand the options available in my life. And the awareness’s that remained further assisted me in understanding the most likely outcome for each option. As I sat there reflecting, I realized the message of the past life scenes I had experienced. I continued to be amazed as the conciseness of these scenes as they related to my current life. I reflected upon the insights and information provided by “Owl”. This information was nearly overwhelming – almost too powerful for words.I left the Therapist office amazed at the power of the process and delighted in the understandings I had gained. A truly amazing experience.

Standing strong in a shaky economy

“How do we keep our inner fire alive? Two things, at minimum, are needed: an ability to appreciate the positives in our life – and a commitment to action. Every day, it’s important to ask and answer these questions: ‘What’s good in my life?’ and ‘What needs to be done?’”

Better to act without any particular motivation, than to act out of self-interest. But any act of kindness, whatever the motivation, is better than no act at all.

Looking back to move forward




As I look back on the last 6 months and the paths I have taken I have few regrets. Of course I wish I could have spent more time on what I consider fun things like, working on this blog, Spending more time with my love ones, Praying and meditating more. Now here comes the however, I believed I had to do’s like working to maintain shelter and transportation, as well as eating healthy and resting to maintain my health.

I based this blog on discerning life and purpose by journaling and now set my intention to proceed on a regular basis with journaling tips, motivational and inspiring quotes. As well as some reflective questions, also known as writing prompts, springboards, or smart questions.
Thank you for joining me on this path.
