			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I spend my day listening to people: listening for underlying patterns in the issues they are presenting; listening for word usage and how that can relate to belief systems; listening for signs of karmic related issues; listening to the spirits as they inform me as I listen to my clients. When I listen, I am concentrated and focused.</p>
<p>My father was a detective and I feel that those observational qualities of listening and watching were passed down to me in both genetic and environmental ways. We would do a mystery game in the paper each day. Dad would read the article and teach me how to put the clues together, like working a giant jigsaw puzzle in my mind. What did I hear, where are the clues, what is not being identified that needs to be investigated? I do this constantly throughout the day and I am doing it now as I write these blogs.</p>
<p>When I think of my last post, where else have I heard and observed the concept of “SINGING”? I am not speaking of the obvious, but the conceptual. In the movie <em>Australia,</em> the little boy, often used the phrase, &#8220;I will sing you to me&#8221; or &#8220;I have sung you to me.&#8221; It was a sacred way of communicating where energetically the boy would focus his attention and intention to make contact with whomever he was focused on. From people, animals, or heart desires, he would sing them to him, a form of telepathic communication manifestation that had no space or time limitations. As I mentioned in my previous blog this same communication can be done for yourself, singing yourself back to you.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>What is the soul?</p>
<p>My definition isn’t textbook or scientific, but from my heart. I understand the soul to be an energy field;  an energy field that carries a unique signature that holds a distinctive code within it and also holds all of your evolution. No two signatures are the same, although all signatures come from the same source – the creative force of the universe.</p>
<p>In the physical world our soul as energy resembles the gaseous state. It’s never solid. However, it has solid aspects to it. In its most dense state it comprises and animates the physical body, but is more than the physical body. So it <em>is</em> you, is <em>in</em> you, and is <em>around</em> you. It extends around you and reaches out into the environment, exploring its surroundings. It is the major life force that embodies you and allows you to experience physicality.</p>
<p>Your soul also requires maintenance. Daily care and attention to the soul promotes divine health. Just as the body would deplete if attention weren’t given to food, water, hygiene, and exercise, the soul can also become depleted. The maintenance of the soul is necessary.</p>
<p>Neglect of this process has created very difficult life experiences for  my clients. I feel I have dedicated my adult life to understanding the maintenance of the soul, so that with the help of my spirit allies we can clean up people’s energy systems and care for their soul.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The spirits see us as unlimited in what we can actually do to achieve wellness, happiness and health. The limits we feel are the limits that we create and then lock into our consciousness and subconscious. These limits often show up in our dreams. Taking our power back in the dream state leads to wellness in the “awakened” state of consciousness.</p>
<p>I often hear people be frustrated when they can’t remember their dreams. They feel as if they are not “up to par” or they are deficient in some way as a dreamer. Again this is a projection of our Western culture, that says you are “less than.” From a shamanic perspective there is a dismemberment that happens to the psyche in a dream. Dismemberment is a shamanic term that means to take someone or something apart so that it can REMEMBER its truth.</p>
<p>Human beings are naturally divine, capable, creator beings on the planet. However they forget this truth and go through life acting limited and unable. One of the dismemberment phases of dreaming is the dismemberment of these limitations and the ability to REMEMBER the power and the abilities that you actually have and are willing to take in to the dream time.</p>
<p>Shamanically speaking when a person has no memory of their dream, and sleeps soundly and deeply, it is because they completely dismember and go back into the light of creation. They rest there and they have the ability to reassimilate completely ANEW. However what most people do in the reassimilation process of reentry into their body is they put themselves back together exactly as they were before. They don’t take advantage of the power they hold to reassimilate healthy, or different. Shamanically speaking each slumber allows you to go back into creation and change what isn’t working for you. So instead of being deficient because you didn’t remember your dreams you were given the opportunity to return to the divine and be at peace. It is a beautiful state of deep reconnection.</p>
<p>I&#8217;d love to hear your stories of dreaming, dismemberment, and reassimilating. Just click on the &#8220;no comment/comment&#8221; link at the end of this post!</p>
<p>Heart to heart,</p>
<p>Jan</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>In my Level II class this month I gave the assignment of merging with the true self just before going to sleep. The true self is the actualized potential of each person in this lifetime, the perfect you that has never experienced hardships, wounds, or misfortune of any kind. It is the blueprint and actualized being of who you were to be in this incarnation: healthy, vibrant, loving, brilliant and wise. My idea for the assignment was that if you took the time to move into this energy just before you went to sleep you will carry this energy into your dreams or into the light if you travel that far. The likelihood of staying more conscious of this magnificence could greatly increase, thus empowering you to a greater extent.</p>
<p>The more the realization that you are given daily opportunities through the death and rebirth cycles of night into morning to rid yourself of burdens, deficits, illness, or hardship, the more the realization is understood and internalized that life is working for you not against you. These systems have existed from the beginning of time to help humanity. All of the negative projections that we place on life are just that &#8212; negative projections. They come out of our own egoic creation of suffering and then they control all of our thoughts, distorting the truth of our own power and abilities to create ourselves.</p>
<p>If you would like a meditation to help you merge with your true self, I have a CD for just this purpose. Go to <a href="http://www.lightsong.net/Products/CD_awaken.htm" target="_blank">www.lightsong.net/Products/CD_awaken.htm</a> for more information.</p>
<p>Heart to heart,</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The last two posts were about dreams and how to access your true self. This post continues with another aspect of dreaming: nightmares. Even nightmares are shamanically seen as positive. A nightmare is BIG energy, lots of power, lots of potential. In the interpretation of this energy that something is out to get us, we are weak and incapable. Those concepts are all coming from the egoic centers of the mind. The ego or conditioning of the culture will constantly place you in a weaker position to life that is out to get you. Again, to take your power back in this scenario is to show you HOW POWERFUL you actually are.</p>
<p>The dream is asking you to move into this super powerful arena and take control of your life. Not to be scared and at loss, but to turn toward this energy, and use this energy that the dream is showing you for yourself.</p>
<p>I believe that the spirits and the universe are constantly providing opportunities to move us into our brilliance, to provide opportunities for empowerment and freedom of the confines of an overactive ego. They do this throughout the day and also throughout the night.</p>
<p>So start paying attention to your dreams &#8212; and your nightmares &#8212; for the learning they contain. Then actively work toward changing the outcome of those dreams. Your true self is waiting for you to see just how powerful you are!</p>
<p>Heart to heart,</p>
<p>Jan</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I often listen to <a href="http://www.abraham-hicks.com/lawofattractionsource/index.php">Abraham-Hicks</a> material. I find it inspiring. Abraham is a group of spirits or non-physical beings that are channeled through a woman, Esther Hicks. Esther has been working with this group of beings for about 20 years and she has become quite proficient in bringing their message through to the world. I have listened to her for years and marvel at how she has changed because of carrying this higher vibrational energy. Abraham uses the expression, “create a vortex of aspiration or a vortex of what you desire and know that the universe is in motion responding to your desire.”</p>
<p>I like the word vortex because in my mind’s eye I can see a cone-shaped area that is full of my desires, my prayers, and my intentions. It is spinning and there is all this wonderful high frequency energy being broadcasted from the vortex. I can see and sense this energy and know that things are in motion. I can also see in my mind&#8217;s eye if I am in the vortex or not. Sometimes the only component missing in my vortex is ME. For whatever reason I am on the outside of my vortex. The only way I can be in the vortex is to be an energetic match for it. I then have an action to take to put me in the vortex.  I like action because I am a doer.  The action is something that will enable my feelings to change, to bring them up to the high frequency component of the vortex. I know that if I change my thoughts, and decide to think of something fun, or appreciative, my feelings will change accordingly and I can visualize myself hopping into the vortex. It is a game that I play with myself, but it seems to work.</p>
