Your comments ...

Dear Michelle

After reading your recent email I felt that I had to write to you. We’ve never had the pleasure of meeting but I gratefully receive your emails and newletters on a regular basis.

I firstly wanted to thank you for the honesty that you showed in your message. It takes a lot of courage and trust to share such information, and without wanting to sound corny about things, I salute you for what you did.

I also have had similar experiences to yourself. I was sexually abused once when I was a teenager and have recently experienced the pain of a miscarriage. Whilst these events are undeniably painful and challenging, I truly believe that everything happens for a reason and our task is to find that reason and to grow and learn from the experience, whether the experience be good or bad.

I think as well that the more spiritually aware and developed we become the tougher the life events we are faced with become. Unfortunately our soul learns far more from traumatic experiences than from everyday run of the mill ones. After all, how do you learn about fundamental lessons such as unconditional love unless you are tested to the limit. Perhaps unfair but true.

Anyway you don’t need me to tell you that the angelic kingdom is behind you supporting you every step of the way. I know that with their comfort, support and direction you’re going to come through this whole experience a lot stronger than you probably every thought possible.

Take care of yourself and God bless.

Dear Michelle,

Thank you for your email and for sharing such deep personal experiences with me. I agree that it is good to share what you have learnt with others and I appreciate your honesty.

I feel very humbled by your experiences, nothing that emotionally challenging has happened in my past (not that I'm aware of anyway), although I realise that something, even somewhat insignificant by comparison must have occurred, to instill the feelings of low self esteem/self worth that have arisen in me recently.

As always your email was timed perfectly for it's relevance to 'where I am' at the moment. I am currently reading 'The Journey' by Brandon Bays (I don't know if you have read it) after it being recommended to me by a family counsellor. I should briefly explain here why I have been seeing this counsellor (Liz). About 2 years ago my sister and myself embarked on a search for our brothers who are twins and were adopted as babies, as my mum and dad were very young and family pressure won out over their wish to keep them. We initiated the search through National Childrens Home and were assigned Liz as our counsellor to help steer as through things. From time to time at different stages of the search (we are now in regular contact with them) Liz has called me to see if I need to talk over anything. The last time she called I was just coming out of a bout of depression and my self esteem was really low, she suggested a meeting with her where we started to uncover some of my issues. Liz is currently taking a NLP course to be a practitioner and would like me to be a case study, she suggested I read The Journey, first. It talks a lot about buried emotions/ bad experiences and how these can remain locked in our cells memories, even though dealt with on a conscious level and a lot more, suddenly things are starting to make sense to me.

I think this is like what you were saying about yourself, you were guided to focus on a certain area which released hidden memories, that were affecting your life even though you were previously consciously unaware of them. Even though at times negative feelings would arise in you, at some level you were always aware of the cause (the pip).

Through reading this book I can now see where I need to go, within myself, when the discomfort/negative feelings/unwanted memory etc arise I have to immerse myself in them, find their centre (the book says find the peace inside them) and experience them, a layer at a time until I can forgive and let go. Like you said it will be painful at times, the difference is now I'm not that scared to try and face my demons, a little at a time.

Sometimes I think I haven't come very far, but then I look back at the person I was 5 or 6 years ago and I realise that I've travelled quite a distance in that time on a spiritual level. There have been highs and lows but I understand things a lot more now, helped by the 'teachers' I have met along the way (like yourself) who have always been willing to share their truth with me. I hope someday to be able to do the same for someone else.

In your words I have found confirmation that events occur for a reason, encouragement to continue to believe, that the angels are watching and guiding us and to trust, no matter what happens. I am truly grateful for your frankness and sharing your truth. Who you are always comes across in your newsletters very well, and that is good, I believe that it is best to always show totally who you are; although I have been hesitant with some people to do that myself recently, for fear of ridicule etc. When I do trust however, I have been surprised by their reactions which have been positive or at least interested in what I've had to say.

Thanks once again.
Warmest wishes
Love June




Michelle I bow down to you and your admirable strength! What you have been through Not only in these past few months but your whole life is above and beyond.
Your courage
To not only face this full on but deal with it and then let it go all the while sending your Love is the greatest lesson you have taught me. You really are walking your talk.
You have given me the most amazing ray of hope that I can get up out of the sad lull I am In. I have been lost, grasping for reasons. Looking all around when I really needed to look at the real me, my core. I had forgotten how important it was to send love to my bad memories or thoughts of myself. Always blanking out certain bits cause they are just to soul destroying to handle.
You have proved that everything happens for a reason, everything a lesson.
You can achieve such perfection with oneself. That’s my goal… but you need to dig a lot deeper.
Once again at the right time in my life I open my email and you have written your truth.
This in turn totally makes my world make sense. Amazing ! It is so time for me to face My truth. Thankyou! I wish I could put you in my pocket, like my own personal guide Book! An angel in my pocket.
Thankyou to the angels for sending me into your path.

Love and light
