LOOK IN THE MIRROR. Look into your own eyes. Realize that each time you try to FIT IN to a role, situation or relationship that you really do not want, you are giving up part of yourself. And as you give up part of yourself, that uses up a lot of vital energy within you.WHAT would you do with that energy that is now being wasted as you try to fit in? How would you “spend” that energy if you could free that wasted energy up from having to do the horrible job of trying to make you be someone else?
Of course there ARE some situations and relationships that you are not going to leave for good reason. But if you are like me and many of those I consult with, there IS room for improvement in your personal journey: the journey to become more of who you really are. And there ARE many roles, situations and relationships that you CAN change.
I think of myself as being very different. And perhaps this is a fantasy as maybe most people think they are different. Perhaps we are all the same in that we all think we are different. No matter what the answer to this riddle is: we can all become more of who we really are!
I have come a long way in being who I am. When I was younger never would I have imagined that as an older person I would be a psychic medium out there in the world: a working medium and a published author. I know many people who are psychic and mediumistic who are afraid to admit their spiritual gifts even to themselves. I remember the years when I was deciding if I was willing to write books, be on television and radio and be know publicly or remain a kind of closeted medium that very few people would find out about. It was a bit scary to come out as a psychic medium. Not everyone was going to approve of me, some people would say I was a freak or wacko.
LET US ASK OURSELVES LIFE CHANGING QUESTIONS: What would my life look like if I was being more of who I really am? Would I still be working in the same kind of job. would I be working at all, who would I be spending time with, what would my schedule look like, what relationships would I let go of and what kinds of relationships would I be looking for? WHAT WOULD CHANGE? There are as many answers to these questions as there are people who are willing to look themselves in the eyes and ask the questions.
LIFE IS SHORT SO DO NOT WAIT: I kinda understood that life is short when I was younger, but with years of experience as a psychic medium communicating with the spirits of those who have passed on, I really know that life is short. And with years of comforting clients who are mourning the passing of a loved one: I know now that life is short. Of course I have also been in deep grief over the passing of my own loved ones, and each time another of my family or friends makes a transition into eternal life, I learn once again that life is short.
Don’t misunderstand this message. It is not a message that begs you to turn your whole life upside down in a day. It is a message that says “LOOK INTO YOUR OWN EYES AND SEE WHO YOU ARE. BECOME MORE OF WHO YOU ARE IN YOUR EVERYDAY LIFE AS LIFE IS SHORT.”

Change, Change, Change. Life is always changing and change is the only thing we can count on. Sometimes when life changes it is for the better, and at other times the changes bring tears to our eyes and we are heart-broken.
“Why is life not the way it used to be?” we cry. The truth is that life will never be as it used to be. They say you cannot step in the same river twice.
What we must do is live each moment and then let go of it. Appreciate the beauty of each moment, knowing it will never be repeated.
We have a choice: we can either try to hang onto life as it used to be, or we can let go and discover the beauty of the next moment.

The Nurturer Needs to be Balanced March 4, 2010

Are you overly responsible for others? Do you feel the pain of everyone you know? Many of us who are extremely sensitive have to learn how to “turn it off” and stop feeling the pain of others so deeply. Compassion is a wonderful quality and perhaps one of the most important feelings one person can have for another. But all feelings must be balanced. Too much of any feeling can throw a person out of balance. Sometimes we are overly involved with worry about others and also too much worry about our own lives.
Those of us who work with the spiritual exercises in my book “Consult Your Inner Psychic” are working on getting in touch with the many qualities or “energies” we have within us. We call one of the energies “The Nurturer.” Following is the message to read when one feels that the quality of the Nurturer is getting out of balance. This message has helped me alot and if you read this and it “speaks to you” I hope you will find it as helpful as I have.
Excerpt from Consult Your Inner Psychic
“I have been overly involved with the part of myself that is the Nurturer, and I need to step back. Too many of my thoughts are concerned with my problems, the problems of others, or the problems of the world.
Where have the carefree times gone? Where are those moments of total relaxation where I do not feel a care of worry? Where are the laughter, the song, and the dance of my life?
Am I so busy taking care of everything that comes into my path that I am losing the joy of living? Am I so obsessed with taking care of myself that I am not allowing myself to have any fun?
Nurturing myself, others, and my world should be a natural part of my life and not a part of life that becomes obsessive and anxiety producing. In this moment I realize that it is not good for me to spend so much time investigating every possible way to nurture myself. Right now I need to clear my mind of all thoughts and just relax.
In this moment I meditate on restoring balance to my life.”

Trying to control life is like being in prison
Insisting life be as you want it is like being stuck in traffic
Letting go and seeing what develops is like a sunny morning
Letting go and being flexible as the day unfolds is pure freedom

Happy Now January 26, 2010

When life becomes one problem after another, let go and then let go again.
Do not tell yourself that you will be happy when the problem is solved. There will be another problem. Be happy now. Find peace within your heart even though life around you may appear to be crumbling. Find peace now. Right now.
One of my teachers used to say “If you can’t find happiness in the next five minutes, then you do not know how to find happiness.”
Find happiness now. Know that life is full of problems. Look at the stars, the sun, the moon, the winds, the lakes, the oceans and all that is beautiful in life. Look at the trees, feel the freshness of the rain, and love the beauty of freshly fallen snow.

I do not believe the world is going to end anytime soon, but I do think we have some world issues that need our full attention. This is a time when we need to look at our personal energy as if it were money in the bank and ask ourselves “what is the best use of my energy?”
Many of us who see ourselves as people who walk the spiritual path have soft hearts for those with problems, and we do more than our fair share as we try to help our friends through difficulties. Many of us have also come to the point where we realize that it is a waste of energy to help some people because they are not willing to do their part: they are not willing to make choices to better their lives.
Especially during this time on the earth, it is more important than ever to evaluate how we spend our valuable energy. With world communications as they are, we are now AWARE of how many starving people there are in the world. We are now AWARE of the problems in our ecological system. So I ask myself and I ask you to ask yourself: “What is a better use of my energy: to try to keep helping people who are not willing to help themselves, or to spend my time on social projects that help communities who are truly in need?” “What is a better use of my time: to help a friend who never learns or to help a child with his homework?” “What is a better use of my time: to argue with people who are not willing to face the ways they are abusing themselves, or to work a few extra hours each week and donate the money to a community that has next to nothing?” You and I only have so much personal energy. How are we going to spend this energy?
There comes a point where we cannot help people who are not willing to help themselves. Of course there are exceptions as there are people who are absolutely not capable of helping themselves. But in this instance we are discussing those who CAN help themselves but do not choose to do so.
It becomes a waste of our valuable life energy to continue to spend energy on those who do not receive any benefit from continual attempts to be helpful.
I ask myself again “How am I going to spend my personal energy?” I ask you :How are you going to spend yours?”

Stonehenge
CAROLE LYNNE IN GLASTONBURY, ENGLAND
Today a man in a coffee house in Glastonbury, England complained about the fact that when you visit Stonehenge, you are not allowed to go near the massive stones. Years ago, one could walk up to the stones as one would walk into a church or temple. Now one cannot get near the stones. This young man said ” They are freezing Stonehenge into the past. But it is part of the present and they are not letting us use it.” I tried to reason with him, explaining that the “authorities” are trying to protect an incredible site from vandalism. Nothing I said mattered and as this young man kept talking, I began to understand what he was saying.
Finally I said “build your own stone circle.” He laughed and said he did not have the people who could complete such a project. A cup of coffee later, we agreed that sand mandalas are the best way to go, as you can create these beautiful spiritual expressions and then sweep them away. You do not have to worry about the mortgage, fixing the roof or vandalism.
Our whole conversation left me thinking about how difficult it is for us to maintain all of our spiritual organizations and institutions because we have to cope with politics, maintaining buildings, staff, boards of directors, etc — etc — etc! If I create a beautiful picture or image out of sand, it can be blown or swept away, but the experience I have while creating the picture will always be with me.
It IS great to see Stonehenge, but something IS lost as it has become a tourist site. It is frozen in time as the young man commented. BUT still very impressive and beautiful. Ice sculptures anyone?

My clients often tell me that they have a hard time feeling the presence of the spirits of their loved ones who have passed over. Unfortunately many people are looking for spectacular signs from those in eternal life. They look for the Hollywood version of spirit communication.
When I do mediumistic readings for people and blend with the spirits of their loved ones in order to bring messages, nothing spectacular happens. Lights do not flash on and off and pictures do not fall off the wall. What I experience is quite subtle. I just know that the spirits are there and I begin to see visions in my mind of what they used to look like. I begin to blend with their memories and just know things about their lives. After I have given my clients the messages from their loved ones, I tell them that as they open to the presence of spirit, they will have the same experience I am having. They will just know the spirits are there.
It is natural for any of us to doubt it when we experience the presence of the spirit of a loved one. We become sure we are making it up because we long to hear from our loved one. That is why it is so helpful to have a reading with an experienced medium. If a medium, who knows nothing about your loved one, can tell you things about your loved one that are true, then you will know that the spirit of your loved one really has survived the change called death. This knowledge will make it easier for you to believe it when you feel the presence yourself.
I became a medium because the gift was suddenly given to me. But then I trained for years in Spiritualist organizations such as the American Federation of Spiritualist Churches and took courses with the Spiritualist National Union of Great Britain. My education helped me to understand my gift and learn to use it responsibly.
I encourage you to be open to the presence of your loved ones. You do not have to be a medium. Just be open and allow the spirits of your loved ones to come to you.
Carole Lynne shares article by Brian Vaszily re a GREAT NEW YEAR December 22, 2008

Dear Friends,
Here is a great post from Brian Vaszily. I found this on www.intent.com and Brian gave me permission to post his article. I know that his ideas will help you to make the most of the past year and the next year.

TRY THIS AMAZING EXPERIENCE TO MAKE YOUR NEW YEAR HAPPY by Brian Vastly
The past is good for two things: the happy memories, and the lessons it provides. That is why as each year ends I partake in an intense experience that focuses on these values, creates an important sense of closure and helps greatly to ensure a happy New Year.
To embrace what is worthwhile from the previous year and leave the rest behind you – instead of holding onto grudges and regrets, as so many unfortunately do much to the detriment of their emotional and physical health – and to ensure your New Year is happy, I encourage you to try this experience. And to share it with those you love.
Take some time to ponder and create two lists:
One, your The Top Five Most Important Lessons You Learned in the Year.
And two, your Top Five Favorite Memories of the Year.
Now before you race off to do this, read the rest of this short article. It provides important perspective on doing this.
First and foremost, remember that the key aspect of this intense experience is to “take some time to ponder” it.
In today’s go-go faster-faster world, you may be tempted to rush through this experience, to treat it like another task to get off your to-do list.
But you just invested 8760 or so hours of your life in the previous year. To pull what is worth pulling from it, to give it proper perspective and proper closure, it surely deserves some of your focused conscious energy.
Remember the Wisdom of a Child
Maybe you lost half your investments this year. Or your job. Or your house. Or you faced health challenges. Or worse.
Well, you have two options:
One, dwell on the negative, self-defeating questions like “How could I be so stupid?” or “How could God let this happen to me?”
Those are not really questions but unchecked emotional responses that will only drive your spirit, health, relationships and more into the ground.
Your other option is to ponder what positive lessons you were graced with from whatever you experienced in the year. And to be thankful for them, as you have the gift of life and consciousness and therefore the ability to do something with those lessons.
For example, I personally went through some very painful relationship experiences and business experiences this past year. I could choose to beat myself up over them, or point the finger at others and say, “How could you?” I could choose to drown in the pain.
But a child doesn’t touch fire, get burned, and then spend the rest of his days – or even hours – lamenting how this could have happened to him. He learns not to touch the fire and twenty minutes later he is happily playing again.
In this past year two of the things I learned, or learned even more, are that:
– No matter how much you have invested, sometimes the healthiest thing you can do is let go.
– Deep love is hard work. And worth every ounce of it.
So, whether from challenging experiences or wonderful experiences, what top five lessons did you learn from the previous year?
Don’t Bang on the Beehive
To focus on your top five (or ten, or twenty) favorite memories of the year likely seems like good advice, but not profound advice.
But as with so many sensible actions, what seems so obvious when anyone thinks about it is unfortunately not what many people tend to do.
Instead, for example, when discussing the past year I have already heard so many people stating how bad it was. I hear them recalling all the bad memories.
This follows so many people’s tendency to dwell on what is wrong, what they don’t have, what they lack.
And this is as dangerous and unhealthy as it gets. It is like banging on a beehive.
Because here is a universal law: whatever you seek, you will find plenty of.
If you are focused on bad memories, problems, and things to complain about, you will most certainly find them. They will swarm your mind, your heart, and sting your life.
Likewise, if you are focused on good memories, the beauty in the world, and things to feel grateful for, you will most certainly find them too. They will nourish your mind, your heart, and allow your life to blossom.
So what are your top five favorite memories of the past year? What are the most important lessons you learned from the year?
Put them out there, and put your gratitude for them out there, for the world, for the universe, for God to hear.
Share them with your family, and pass this article on to those you care about and ask them to share theirs with you.
What you put out, after all, is what you get back. And that will make for a very Happy New Year for you…
