Living with joy ....

...by Sanaya Roman

If I could buy a copy of this book for every person in the world, then believe me I would.
This book has been one of the largest influences in my Spiritual Growth, helping me to understand life more clearly and the reasons for that big question “why?”

It is a book channelled by Sanaya, through her guide Orin. It is instantly obvious that the explanations of “why” and how to change life to one full of joy, is from a higher source.

The words ring true and are brimming over with Love and Wisdom. It put me at ease when I felt alone at the "beginning of my journey." I realised that the events that were occurring in my life were perfectly “normal”, and that I was not some kind of alien that had been dropped off in a strange place.

It is the first book of a course of self help books full of inspiration and easy to follow exercises - "Personal power through awareness" and "Spiritual Growth" complete Living with Joy -

For me to express to you how helpful this book has been for me, I think I would be here waffling for hours and still not quite saying the right words, all I can do is urge you to pick it up, read it and live life with joy.

DAMSEL IN DISTRESS – Based on a true story

Are there any Knights out there in shining armour on white stallions? More to the point, are there any knights out there able to come to the aid of a damsel in distress?

Sorry I am not living in an ivory tower and regret I am not size zero in a flowing white chiffon full-length gown, but nevertheless this damsel is pretty distressed.

I think you should reach for the tissues, as it is a tale of woe beset with broken promises and modern day distress.

It all began when this damsel decided to write a book about her sickness – fibromyalgia. She wanted to tell the world about the pain fibromyalgics suffer and what it is like living in pain with no cure. She longed to get better and feel well again. What hopes did she have for the future when she faced pain, sleeplessness, chronic fatigue, isolation, depression, de0spair and possibly life in a wheelchair?

A knight from a far off land, called the Black Knight, heard of the tale of woe and offered to help the damsel in her quest. He promised to provide the funds to go the Caxton and print the book. He would also help her to tell the world about fibromyalgia and to spread the books far and wide to raise money for research.

Full of joy the damsel set to and began to scribe. For almost a year she worked tirelessly from dawn to dusk, writing and inviting those who knew about her sickness and her wise physician to add their comments to her book.

As Christmas drew near and her home was festive, she looked forward to opening her gifts and her greeting cards. She promised that she would work harder and finish the book more quickly in the New Year, with the help of her Guardian Angel.

But alas, alack, one of her greetings bore sad tidings. Her Black Knight, a man who was upright and true, had fallen on bad times and lost all his money. He was heartbroken he could not help the damsel and disappeared from her life full of shame. For days she cried and cried until she could cry no more.

I said you would need the tissues.

Filled with distress the damsel wondered what she would do. Unable to rejoice during Christmas she was sad, tearful, and downhearted and did not know who to turn to. Another damsel, who understood her pain, offered her all the money she had that day, to help her with the book. But alas 20 silver coins were not enough. Her friend said lots of people who had the same aches, pains and fatigue and who believed in the book, would offer her money to help with the printing. So it was that small donations began to arrive but this is not the end of this story. So far it has no happy ending unlike many fairytales.

The characters may sound fictional but they are real and live in this century with computers instead of quill pens, business men in black suits instead of Knights in shining armour, and with a business economic crisis instead of falling on bad times - but the distress is very real even in this century.

The book fund has now received donations totalling 45% of the publishing costs and 85% of the book is written. But there is still a long way to go if this self-help fibromyalgia book with the latest research, alternative therapies, motivational stories and a bit of humour is to reach the people who most need it. As the editor/author I will receive not receive a cent – red or otherwise and wherever possible all expenses will be absorbed by me – the money from sales will be used for research and hopefully to find a cure.

As I live in this century I do appreciate there is no taste in nothing. Backed by those who have already donated, it has been agreed that anyone donating £25 will receive a first edition copy of the book – inscribed if they wish.

The names of all donors will be printed in the book, and included on a list of people who believed, cared and had faith. Anyone supporting the book, however much their donation is, will received a personal letter of thanks and be given a chance to purchase the book at a reduced rate, pre-publication. Everyone will be invited to offer a brief dedication of a few words to be printed in the book. So you can see yourself in print!

If you fancy yourself as a White Knight in shining armour that will come riding out of the sunrise with a nice donation, or if as one of the many women who suffer with FMS, you just believe what we are doing is worthy of support, I would really love to receive your financial support for what has now become OUR book. So far fibromites and friends have pledged £1,264. We are nearly half way there, but we do need a little help from our friends.

If I can answer any questions about the book or about fibromyalgia please email me at pain24.7@mac.com. The book is called Pain 24/7 The Fibromyalgia Jigsaw ©.

If you feel you would like to support the book by making a donation please send me
your cheque or postal order made out to PAIN 24/7 to

Jeanne Hambleton, Pain 24/7, (c/o Fibromyalgia Support Surrey & Sussex),
Old Village Shop, 65, Stocks Lane, East Wittering, Chichester, West Sussex. PO20 8NH

Do not forget to include your name, address, a very brief dedication (6 or 7 words), and confirm if you are a “friend” or “fibromite”.

Thank you for your support.

If you do nothing else to help raise fibromyalgia awareness, you will be helping us get the book out there to raise awareness and help with research thanks to your Support Group. I look forward to hearing from you and sending you an old fashion English thank you letter. Write soon. If you wish to check my credentials why not Google me? By the way I am still looking for funny fibro fog stories – please include any recollections when writing. Thanks. Jeanne

Handy Tips ...

Take some quiet time for yourself.

Ask the Angels to help you release all ego, negative thoughts, any hidden agendas and all karma that may be blocking you for moving forward on your pathway.

Feel yourself being bathed in a column of white light. Dissolving all you no longer need, leaving you shinning brightly in all your magnificent beauty.

Now with the knowledge that you are surrounded in Angels, write down your Intentions.

Now say “I ask that the vibration of my energy is raised, allowing the love and commitment of all my Intentions to enter my life in perfect timing.”

Say your Intentions out loud.

Now say “ I thank the Universe, (God), the Angels for supporting me in fulfilling my Intentions.”

Know that it is done and all will be – just so.

Keep your Intentions somewhere safe. Repeat them only when necessary, to affirm that energy within you.

Be open to receive all inspiration that may guide you, all opportunities that will support you.

Be grateful everyday for every Blessing that comes your way.

Make room for at least five minutes silent time a day so that you may "hear". Walking, running, listening to soft music, a hot bath, an afternoon rest …

Gifts of love ...

A big hello to all my beautiful Angel friends. I hope today finds you well - and keeping dry and safe from the storms.


It is amazing how from one email of words so many can gain different things, or read it from a different perspective - one thing I do want to clear as I felt is was maybe mis - read, is with regards to my comment of "bringing Sanctuary of Angels to an end".. These words clearly stuck out to you more than others and it was not stating an intention more a momentarily feeling. Love can hurt sometimes and therefore my love and passion for Sanctuary of Angels can hurt too BUT never would I give up that love. Sanctuary of Angels is a life force energy within me - it is as essential to my day as bread and water and is my heart.


There is so much to tell you about what happened after 320 am, that I do not know where to begin. I feel the first step would be to say "Thank you". Thank you to all of you for your gifts of love. Not only did these come in the form of words by phone and email but also in the form of seeing my needs as "Michelle." One lady noted she could sense that I could do with a jolly good massage and so on Wednesday that is where I went - Louise saw my needs, not just the massage - it was more the need for rest, support, nurturing and most of all to be spoken to and seen as simply - me.


On the courses I guide the students through a little routine that allows the emotional body to "step back". One of the many things this enables us to do is detach from our emotions to be able to see a clearly situation and receive divine guidance so that we may heal and move forward.


I knew last week my emotional body was a bit too close for comfort, again something was birthing for me. Have you ever had that feeling of a deep in your belly fear but you don't know what it is and it can make your eyes weep all on their own, as if leaking while the big well of tears just lies in waiting?


I was bit stuck - actually that is not the truth, I was very stuck - I appreciate to heal an emotion we need to feel it to it's full intensity so it may heal and we return to center but I could not move my emotional body to meditate or be calm at all -


After writing "out loud" at 320 in the morning there was an instant shift in my energy much like when I wrote to you about my greatest challenge. I was able to sit in the garden at 615am - the first time in a week and enjoy the warm rain (in my dressing gown) - I had returned to bliss.


On Monday morning Andria, a beautiful lady who recently attended a course visited my home to prepare a Angelic crystal grid for me. I was guided to ask her and what could have been difficult to arrange, all fell neatly into place.


Andria commented she was nervous, she had placed me on a pedestal of teacher, student role and although this was "normal" - I began to cry. I have tried so hard to be equal, it is a strong moral in me, I do not have the ego or the desire for power to want to be placed above others on a pedestal. That was why going out for a meal with the Glasgow group was so important to me - acceptance I suppose rather than being different.


The grid was placed and instantly I saw many, many healing hands. It was very comforting but most importantly I felt incredibly supported.


The first thing I heard was "Give and expect nothing in return." I questioned the Angels as I felt I did and they lit up the word "expect." The message was then clear and for this I am truly sorry as I have had an expectation of you. I have offered my words and hands of light and have expected my offering to be taken. I now see that that is giving with expectation. To give is my be - ing but it is your choice as to when or if you are ready to accept.


I questioned why all the services offered by Sanctuary of Angels were guided and yet some were just eating my time and not working. I was told that Sanctuary of Angels was offering the right services but as I already knew Sanctuary of Angels is a community and so it was my responsibility to receive the inspiration but not necessary to take the action. I was told support in building this community was coming - this was a huge sigh of relief for me.


I was then shown a part of me that had been trying to get my attention for healing. It was al little girl me and she was feeling "not good enough" and very unsupported by everyone and the world. She also felt her needs and her true self were not seen.


Well I think that just about sums up last week for me, no wander the emotional body was so intense. I am finding as I have chosen to "remember" a year of my childhood that went missing, she now pops up regularly for recognition and healing. I am very proud to be part of her now - at last. and so any time she has something to say, she is very welcome.


The book - well the book was just a trigger of feeling "unseen" - the lady could not see me past her own ego and that is not said with malice or dis - respect. She gave me a gift of healing - intentionally or not and I am grateful. I was angry at her for wanting to work from a place of power claiming to be able to "connect " people because that is not truth -


But I cannot save the world - what I can do though, is keep doing all those little things knowing that one day they will make big differences and that feels easy and perfect.


Just as the Angel grid was closing the Angels showed my my favorite place to be - I love just lying on the grass looking up at the sky, simply cloud watching. As this vision came I heard a famous saying -


"Be as the sky is to the clouds, the clouds drift by and the sky remains detached."


Bless you all for your gifts of love, support and nurturing - here is my gift to you -


I am very excited as I have organized - with some help from Sarah - a "google group" - what that means is that you can all email each other offering your support and services, your words of wisdom - you can ask for guidance from each other, you can post channeling, laughter, sunshine tears - this gift is yours - I will oversee and protect the space but it is yours -


"Within the wings" has been guided by the Angelic Realm to assist humanity to build up again a sense of community. In this community people are given freedom of "voice" and the space to be heard. Each person here is part of a whole - where we are all equal - caring and be responsible for others.


Here are the essentials:
* Group name: Within the Wings of Sanctuary of Angels
* Group home page: http://groups.google.com/group/withinthewings? hl=en
* Group email address withinthewings@googlegroups.com


So enjoy nurturing and supporting each other within the wings of Sanctuary of Angels and enjoy giving without expectations -


Sending you all my love

A strawberry hair ...

Dearest Michelle,

I hope you are well...
Its been a few weeks now since you visited Glasgow bringing your beautiful light.....
this morning whilst in the studio i was sitting on the carpet chatting to Cathy.....and I ran my fingers through the carpet finding a glorious long strawberry hair...I looked at the hair and realising that it belonged to you..... I placed it right back on the carpet and pushed it into the pile........I didn't share my reasons with Cathy (I sure she though I was crazy) but I thought - I will place it back to the home it found for itself and Michelle’s loving energy will remain here longer.....

Michelle, you have really made an incredible difference here at Studio 26..... we are all laughing and joking, feeling relaxed, being really silly and most of all we are really understanding what its all about - living in the moment and sharing love.
The energy is wonderful, even though the rain is still falling and the dark sky’s cast shadows over our roof tops…. We are sheltered and protected with unconditional love and we all feel it…….

All our wee faces are flushed and red, warm and glowing – no facial could ever compare…..
Cleanse with Unconditional love, exfoliate with divine kindness and tone with trust…….that’s my new beauty regime…..


I feel truly grateful for all my blessing…..


The thoughts of the earth are my thoughts
The voice of the earth is my voice
All that belongs to the earth belongs to me
All that surrounds the earth surrounds me
It is lovely indeed; it is lovely indeed.
Navajo song


Beautiful Michelle thanks again

Love Clairey…………

Trip to Gorton Monastery ....




...and the last one!

Hi all - at last some sunshine, the children and "lulu" are running "loopy" around the garden and so I have grabbed five minutes before I take them out to feed the ducks - usually they stand there eating the bread while looking at the ducks but hopefully with a little persuasion the ducks will get at least a bite.

I am very excited and a little nervous to announce that the 22nd of September will be the last Angel Experience Day I will be holding. The day will be held in a monastery in Manchester - another reason for being so excited as I imagine the energy will be immensely beautiful - and to add to it all I will be holding the day in the "Uriel Suite" - Archangel Uriel has been a huge part of my growth over the past seven months - I feel that this day is another gift he has blessed my life with.


The staff there are looking forward to us visiting, they sent my a photo of a "poorly" Angel, which I have attached, that they have been busy putting back together. The whole monastery has been under reconstruction - the team have given the building and the Angels much dedication, time and love.


I hope to see many of you there - from 2008 I will be handing the workshops over to the Sanctuary of Angel therapists that have chosen to teach - this is all part of the Angelic messaages I have recieved about building communities - I will be taking on a new role but still very much a part of your lives - how could I not be *smile* - I would miss you.


The Angel Experience day for August the 4th in West Sussex still has places available so if this is a day that you have been planning for some time but have never made it - I gently urge you now to take that step - places are limited as it is in my home.


All details are on site -


Have a beautiful day - off to the ducks now!


Much Love


Michelle x

From you with love - gratefully recieved x

Dearest Michelle,

I truly feel that YOU have been teaching ME a lesson so it's I who need to thank you and I don't feel 'let down' in any way!!! Please don't feel like that. I can feel where you're coming from and you need to know that what you're doing is healing on all levels so it's bound to bring this sort of stuff up in people and you'll attract emails such as mine, but it's all for the greater good - you're healing on a universal level.

I was trying to simply get across that, from what i've learned recently, you can save yourself from being affected by all this 'nonsense' (as only love is real :0)), by staying true to your connection, that's the ONLY thing that matters. I finally feel from the responsibility of others' emotions & I am free from feeling responsible for others because I know longer see that anyone is responsible for me. I know all our lessons are different but I really urge you to be 'in love' with yourself because you are great and only you know how great you are because everyone looks at each other through blinkers :0).

I also wanted to share that the lady who sent the book with the message must, surely, have not known you work with angels already? That's the only way I feel can explain what happened as someone who works with angels herself surely she couldn't have done such a thing 'knowingly'? It beggars belief.

I am happy for you to put the letter on the blog, if I can ask you to include this reply too? I hope i've gone some way to explain that you don't let people down, you simply reflected my life lessons at this time and it's enable me to move on which I lovingly thank you for and I wrote my first letter in the hope it would help you to move on in return :0). God bless you for putting yourself in the 'front row' in this way, for exposing yourself to all that you are witnessing. It takes a very brave, courageous soul to do what you do and I know, not because i'm putting you on a pedestal, but because another life lesson at this time is to be true to myself, to allow myself to shine and be noticed but it makes you feel very vulnerable and exposed at the same time!!!

I feel only love for you Michelle, it was certainly never my intent to hurt you in any way or make you feel less than you are, and it exposes, if anything, how much you've helped me to grow.

Much love and light

Jx

Thank u for your love and honesty ...

Dearest Michelle,

I feel guided to write to you. Firstly, you know the expression we are all reflecting our life's lessons to each other? Well, there is so much going on at that level I feel it's impossible to keep quiet :0).

You may have noticed that I recently 'unsubscribed' from your emails. This is for 3 reasons. Firstly, I sent you an email called 'I Am Zadkiel' channelling. Like you I had received it via a 3rd person, so, like you I checked with Di I could forward her loving email, which she very generously agreed to. I also thanked and acknowledged the person who sent it to me. I noticed you put it in the newsletter but I felt 'aggrieved' I never received a thank you. I must point out at this point that I am not 'having a go', this email is not about that, rather the opposite. The second thing that 'irked' me was your high praises of the Glasgow group, I felt somehow you'd put them on a pedestal and were singling them out to be 'special'. Ironic isn't it?! Thirdly, in another newsletter, you included some channelling by Di's friend which included the lines that we weren't to 'meddle with the grid', that it's perfect and whole as it is. However, my heart tells me something different; that this age is about learning, once and for all, what love can achieve, witnessing love in action, moving away from the technology age and into the heart-centered age of in-spiration, inhaling the divine to recieve wisdom and messages that can help all, and I truly feel that 'Fire The Grid' is one such piece of wisdom from the divine. I therefore sent my channelling to you to offer another side of the coin, I didn't address it as I didn't want you to feel I'd done it out of 'ego' or specifically to want you to do something with it, as I know how you are about these things, I know you 'judge' if things are heart-centered or not so I knew better than to put any mark of my personality on it.

Now, since I unsubscribed to yoru newsletter, my friend Allie Blair, asked if I'd received your latest newsletter out of concern for you, so I asked her to forward it. I read it with interest, at first feeling my email was one of the catalysts you mention for your obvious pain. Towards the end, I realised it was the words in the book someone gave you which had had far more effect.

Now please let me share the lesson I'm currently learning: If you are a man or woman of God, what does it matter if people 'overlook' you, or 'disregard' you or 'dis-empower' you? Your connection to God does not depend upon them unless you choose it to be so. May I talk frankly and say that perhaps you felt dis-empowered because you yourself seek acknowledgement on some level? We are all learning, that is the beauty of this world, there is no need to feel threatened or say that, on one hand, I acknowledge this, but on the other, I disregard that we're all students and place a lot of importance on what people's words can do to me?


I realise now I shouldn't have let your high praise of the Glasgow group 'un-centre' me, I realise when you're truly connected to the divine acknowledgment is no longer an issue and therefore to be aggrieved at not receiving a thank you from you for someone else's channelling was also petty to say the least :0)

It is my truth that we are living the 'Celestine Phrophecy' here and now and that there is nothing to worry about; those who have natural intuitive abilities know their power comes through their connection with the divine and nothing anyone else does can move us from that connection of deep love unless we choose to let them, by saying we seek others' approval or acknowledgement or others peoples' words have power over us. Those who have a dvine connection will naturally guide others, it doesn't need to be forced and it can never be taken away, becuase people are now guided to those they instinctively know have information for them. We are living in an intuitive age, people 'know' with whom to share information and where to recieve information to assist themselves. We are all oracles assisting each other. And, importantly, connected beings keep their energies strong by focusing only on the divine in themselves and everyone.

The person who wrote to you has 'pushed a button', you felt strongly enough about it that you included it in your newsletter. I choose to believe that everyone who 'pushes our buttons' is a loving emissary, showing us an aspect of ourselves we are required to release or learn from in order to move forward. They are assisting us in a way which they are also aware of on a subconcious level. I also believe that they are exposing the lessons they themselves need to learn and when you observe it like that it doesn't evoke a reaction which takes you out of your heart centre.

For my own part I am learning to no longer put people on pedestals, or compare myself to others. I am learning not to need anothers' acknowledgement because I know in my heart I am connected. We are also all connected to each other at the level of compassion, the personification of love, and only love is real. Yes, there are people around me who overlook me, who choose to take the information that flows from my connection for their own because they feel 'threatened' and worried I am 'racing ahead' but they are simply exposing their own lessons to be learned and I can only then look on them lovingly as spiritual beings also finding their own way home.

A cynic would say this a fool's gold way of looking at life but my heart is my teacher and this is what I'm being taught.

I sincerely hope my words heal in some way. And I sincerely apologise for playing any part in causing you pain.

Love and light,

Jacquie



Dear Michelle,

I have not met you in the flesh but a client of mine sent me your email.

It moved me to tears, and I want to thank you for your message.

I hope that the lady who wrote the Archangel book saw what you wrote, but more importantly for sharing this, you have helped to lift the slight darkness that you had.

I work as a beauty therapist at Angmering Manor Hotel and Iona Beeslyis one of my clients, we had looked into coming to one of your courses, which we will do in the near future.

Actually the reason for this email, is that I would like to offer you a massage..........................I dont want any money but I really feel like you need to have a treat...........I dont know if you go for treatments or anything like this, but my gut instinct when I read your mail was she really needs to have a small break, she needs to take a bit of time for herself.

Perhaps I am too forward, but I would like to extend my offer to you, and if you like you can come in for a massage where you can just really relax. As I said maybe my gut instint is wrong but if I dont write this, and dont follow what the Angels tell me, then I will always wonder.

Love and Light

Louise Williams


My Dearest M,

I had to read your 3.20 am e mail 3 times, to understand what you were saying......you can't possibly think of calling Sanctuary of Angels to an end....YOU MUSTN'T...you have SO much to love, light, wisdom and guidance to give to us, which enables us to grow and be able to guide and support others + while doing that, you are receiving insight and messages from your angels about yourself too, which allows you to grow more....

When you wrote about people choosing not to step in to the light they are offered, refusing to listen to their hearts and take action, if you wrote that 4 weeks ago, you could have been referring to me, but after being with you during those 6 wonderful days, I realise that although I wanted to change, and kept on hearing the messages the angels were giving me, the time wasn't right, even though I thought it was....it is now, but also I needed to heal myself before I can help others.....after what happened to me 2 weeks ago, I am healed - I have found Bernice, and I love her....!! I am happy in my skin, and I now find it easy to say - I see the magnificence in me...and it's great being me..it just trips off my tongue, and I can shout it out driving along, and leave post its everywhere reminding me of this - some get stuck on the cats fur, but hey!!! (smile!!)

So the point of this ramble is, don't be knocked off balance, we are all ready ready at different times to change, and I am now ready to shine a beacon of light to others.....feel very light, and positive, chakras are cleansed and I look forward to my meditating time....people are commenting how different I am, so positive, and asking why...?? I speak my truth now and tell them....also I am asking to go part time this week...whooo hey...!!!

I felt you were emotionally tired at the end of our 6 days - the school holidays are coming up, and enjoy have some 'M time'...that is what you would tell us, so chill, and keep looking at your butterfly to remind you that we are all coming out of our cocoons, (but at different times), to shine the light ...!!

With much love,

Bernice



Dear Michelle

I just also wanted to say thankyou for your honesty it takes courage to lay your self open to such vulnerability you are real inspiration as to the love and light that is within us all if we just "open up" and put our trust in Source and our Angels.But also so often we fight against this and try and do it our way until our Angels gently remind us of their unconditional love and we surrender, struggle over aaahhh "PEACE"

Also a friend phoned me yesterday to tell me about the world wide Meditation hour taking place tomorrow 17th July to bring love and energy back to our great planet EARTH. I am sure you are aware of this but through your website maybe many more will bring their energy to this "earth changing" hour. Details in "firethegrid" website.

Oncce again a big thankyou for your newletters and messages

Much love and Light

Sharing your thoughts ....

I recieved so much mail after sending out "320 am and still awake" - just as you are so kind to read my words - I felt it was only love to return the kindness and share with others your words .....

Dear Michelle

I was so glad to have received this message from you, as I'm sure many others will have been too. Yes, you have come from a place of love by sharing this message with us all. You are right to have written it and it did need to be said, and the angels have guided me to send a reply to let you know that.

Please, Michelle, continue your wonderful work and never allow others to make you doubt for even a second that your work is not precious and special. You have been placed in this work by the Angelic realm and they need you to do this. They have guided you. You are what they have brought to you and as I said in a letter to a friend just this week, through your work, and particularly with children, you are bringing angels, love and light into peoples' lives and this you do under the guidance of angels - it comes through them. This is so very important at this time, as there are tremendous changes taking place.

I have known you for a long time, Michelle, through our emails and your Newsletters, which are so welcome, and I think of you as a friend, even though we have never met. Remarks about your newsletter from someone who does not know you, nor truly understands your work through the angels, deeply hurt me a couple of weeks ago. The remarks were delivered to me by this person's mother (a friend of mine) who should have known better, until I realised that that this unkindness came straight out of ego. I even wanted to end my connection with my friend by stopping going to the spiritual grown group that is held at my friend's house. This daughter (she has two), who has only just come to know the love of angels in the last year, feels she is above everyone else; that they have singled her out with their guidance, contacted 'her people', and given her psychic powers and that therefore she feels she knows best. Through her mother, she left the message for me that it was useless to pray for and send light out to little Madeline because she was already dead - she knew that for certain, because the angels had told her. She had also imparted the message that the beautiful meditation in your newsletter (several weeks ago) had not been channelled, and that it was not coming from the 5th Dimension, which it should have been. My first thought was, well, did it matter that the beautiful meditation wasn't channelled - who cares because it was so lovely. I was also totally shaken about Madeline, because I sense her to be safe in the love of angels. I tell you, Michelle, I was hugely angry (I don't usually get angry) for a brief time afterwards that someone could be so rude, to unthinking, so careless, about things they were not knowledgeable about. Then the anger melted, when I realised that this had all come from ego and that she was no nearer getting to the 5th Dimension than any of us however hard she was pushing it; however hard she was trying to prepare everyone and making people look at the consequences if they didn't start to think in the 5th Dimension. I realised how wrong she was and how much she needed guidance and peace. I have sent love and light to her, to her mother and to her sister. I have asked the angels to help her to begin to think differently and to help her to change and grow, because I feel terribly that she is not in the light yet and that she must be hurting deep inside to be acting in the way she is.

I am still not certain about going back to the spiritual growth group, because it has all been doom and gloom there recently anyway, i.e. we must do this, we must think like that, 'my people' are telling us there is not enough time left ...... and so forth. If feel tremendously concerned that this daughter's influence is having a very unsettling effect on her mother, who is constantly depressed and ill these days. Since her daughter came to the light, my friend had gone downhill from a bubbly strong lady to a wreck, who is so worried that she is not going to get to the 5th Dimension and feels she needs to do more work in that direction. She has not been able to hold a meeting for a few weeks, nor has she been able to do any healing for others, and has stayed at home a lot because 'her people' need her to be up most of the night meditating and looking inwards, so she has to rest during the day, because she says she is so exhausted. Honestly, Michelle, I do not know what to make of all of this and nor do any of her friends, who feel the same way as I do. We are so concerned for this situation. Moving to the 5th Dimension should be a wonderful journey, full of joy and love, full of happiness and wonder - something to be eagerly looked forward to, surely ....... are we wrong. Does is need to be distressing, emotionally exhausting, fearful and hard work?

Well, Michelle, I am just guided by the angels that are here in my life. I only have to ask and the answer comes, perhaps not always in the way I expect, but I am always ready these days to expect the unexpected with gratitude and love, and to do what I am asked to do with loving kindness, mindfulness and without ego. I'm hoping you haven't minded me writing to you about this - like your message to us, I guess I have been feeling the need to put it down in writing and get it off my chest.

Thank you again for your helpful and honest words that convey that Love & Light is not a mask.

In love and light and with loving angel blessings

Dear Michelle,

I just sat down to read my mail and saw your post. It made me upset and let me explain why:

Last week I did two readings. One was for a man who wanted me to 'confirm' what he had already been told by a very popular Healer and also some other insight into his spiritual path as he was new to the Angelic Realm. He mentioned that he was a scientist for many years and this was somehow a clue for me although I could not explain why at the time. I did the reading and tried to explain that our connection to Angels/Love/Creator is always there and that we need only be open to receive. I think I almost cried when he replied. All of this was lost to him because he wanted solid proof and for me to right or wrong the information he had received from the Healer, who had told him that, "a very powerful archangel was his spiritual guide." I too did not want to get into the situation of seeming disrespectful of his choice. And in my heart I felt pained because so much love was being given to him but he could not see that because it was overcast by his wanting proof about this powerful archangel. This upset me because I saw how people sometimes want things but get distracted from working toward them by ego-needs and so they miss the most important thing - that love is always there.

Earlier this year, I took a course with an Angel Teacher to learn more about empathy and embracing my sensitivity. The teacher would provide online support and such. But I always felt as if she was pushing her own beliefs unto me even though they did not resonate with me. I decided to withdraw from her course when she wanted me to pay more money for even 'more personal guidance' and her material. I felt very hurt and disillusioned after this because I felt that I was being used and being very idealistic, I felt angry that a spiritual teahcer would operate from a place of self-promotion and not love and the student's best path for growth and healing. I felt bruised and disempowered as you said.

Reading your post caused upset because it made me look at my own feelings about what you'd said in light of my own experiences. I'm grateful for this because it was a gentle lesson to me. See... sharing your truth is healing *smile*. You see what I figure is this: for every person who dis-empowers (whether intentionally or not) there are twice as many that bring light and inspiration so thank you for doing that in your post.

Dearest Michelle

Thank you so much for sharing these thoughts and feelings, I was amazed but it has also brought up stuff that I too have dealt with this week which also has left me feeling very upset and confused when it comes from people who are "walking in the light", I wonder if these things are being revealed to us for a specific reason, maybe to help us to realise that we need to go within and seek the guidance and love on where to go and who to trust from within us first.
Not sure but it is truly is something. I am grateful that you are there for all of us in your special way.
God Bless love and light Jacquie


Dear Michelle

I have just received your heartfelt e-mail and need to let you what a tremendous inspiration your messages are to me

I work with angels in a very small way and share your messages with a group of like-minded friends.(I have printed them all and placed them in a special folder)

When I have problems or difficult decisions to make, your messages always seems to give me the right guidance. I just wish that I lived nearer so that I could attend some of your workshops. Hertfordshire is a long way to travel!

Please continue with your wonderful work. It is appreciated by so many people.

With love, light and angels

Carol Smith



My Dear Michelle

I read your email 'still awake at 3.20am' and I so feel for you.

Please don't let these ego trippers put you off balance. You
have helped and guided hundreds of people on the road to their
Light. I am one of them and I remember with great fondness
my Angel Experience Day with you and my Angel Reading which
has encouraged me to find my feet and to shine my light on
my path, those of my loved ones and those who choose to
walk with me. Thank you so much for that.

There will always be people who think incorrectly that they are
coming from a place of superiority when in fact we are all equal
in the eyes of God and the Angels. These people are doing themselves
and others a great disservice.

You, on the other hand, have so much Love and Light to shine on the
world. Be secure in the knowledge that you are much loved and
respected by those you have taught and guided with your workshops
and also your e-newsletters which are full of inspiration and love.

Please allow Sanctuary of Angels to remain as it is, the loving and
caring Sanctuary for all the people who are guided to choose you as their
teacher and mentor.

Thank you for sharing with us all.

With Abundant Love and Light

Dear Michelle,

Thanks for your email, I can understand that it must be difficult for you sometimes, when called to do the work you do and you feel that people just aren't listening.
I suppose that I am as guilty as the next person where that is concerned as I still haven't sought to further my experience of angels myself. I do feel their presence sometimes when giving healing, mostly to myself these days - but that was my choice to step back from trying to push with gaining clients, I had to take the time to heal myself and prepare myself for whatever is yet to come.Actually I feel the time is nearing now when I will be able to step forward again and present myself for service (so to speak). I know I still have many lessons to learn but as I feel we never stop learning anyway, that shouldn't deter me.
Lately I have been exploring another area of interest, it wasn't really a conscious decision, events just happened to put me where I am now.
I still feel one day I would like to do an angel workshop (I have done things before that have included some angel meditations and meeting angels) but as yet I'm waiting for that 'bolt of lightening' that makes it obvious to me that I 'need' to do an angel course.

Since your reading I have been trying to speak my own truth and for it to come from the heart - as a person I feel stronger, but still lighter and somehow sort of 'wise' for want of a better word, but this is inner wisdom/guidance, mainly for my own development.

The second thing that has happened to you, I know would have really annoyed me. How dare the author of the book sign what they did, yes I agree it is like it was done to 'put you in your place' and dis-empower you, make you feel inferior to them and how awful for a person who is in a position of helping others to see their own light, to be that way. Their behaviour, if they are that way with 'students' will certainly create a need of dependancy in those students. How utterly disgusting to say to you 'let me connect you' as if they are some sort of 'high power' themselves and to infer that you have not yet met archangels yourself (oh it does annoy me, I know I should let the feeling go). It just shows how un-developed they themselves are, as they must feel so bad about themselves deep down, that they have to 'big' themselves up so much to make them feel good. How can a person supposedly spreading the word and love of the angels, seek to gain power over people in that way, and as you say sometimes vulnerable people. I really cannot understand people like that. That sort of attitude is not helpful to anyone.

I feel I have been lucky in my choice of teachers so far, but I have always followed my intuition when choosing them, they have either just sort of appeared at the right time, or I have decided upon those that I just 'clicked' with, felt a connection to and so far I have not been disappointed.

Thanks for sharing that Michelle and I hope that it helped you to do so,it would be a shame if (as you considered) sanctuary of angels was no more, as you reach out to so many people. The reports of yours and others from your workshops are those of love and empowerment and changing of lives for the better and even by sending your newsletters you bring a message of love and light to others. I know you have said that you no longer give readings usually (due to time allowances with all your other work) but I really enjoyed mine and it gave validation/confirmation that I was moving in the right direction and that was really helpful to me too.

Wishing you love and enjoy the rest of the weekend,

Dear Michelle,

Thank you for your latest message. I share your thoughts on this. I am glad you have chosen to carry on because you and your angels words of wisdom, help on so many levels. They always seem appropriate for what is happening at that moment in time.
Keep up the good work and thank you for taking the time to write your messages when you have a family to look after. Any updates on how the puppy is doing would also be great in your messages.

Lovee and blessings

You were awake too *smile*

Joining with you at 4.00am, I now know why I was woken up, Michelle, you have reached out to us as honestly as you can put it into words.
We are just humans at present but our angels guide us when we ask. I am sending you peace and love. Don't hang onto those words that were bothering you, whether spoken or written, send them away from you.
You are the threat to their surrounding circle, but they cannot unsettle you unless you give them access.

Angels are LOVE in all levels, they send it, we feel it, surround yourself and feel comfort. Loving you
Kathleen



Still awake at 320 am - ME TOO!!

Dear Michelle,

You are indeed a beacon of light, and you have a gift for writing exactly what is on people's mind with uncanny timing and accuracy - that is not an accident but a gift from god and the angels. xx

Im sorry you are deeply sadenned, the angels are working you hard!! Its probably because they trust you immensely to deliver the messages at exactly the right time. It must be very frustrating I agree to see people not taking the sign or 'changing' their behaviour but remember that's 'their' stuff, maybe they have a lesson to learn about self love or receiving. It may sound like a cop out but it's ultimately their choice and you must not engage in other's negativity or it will drag you down. I think you are correct, some people enjoy being in a 'situation' - it is safe and they don't have to take any big leaps or change HOWEVER they are missing out on life. Like the old clique goes....... Rome wasn't built in a day....... i believe change is taking place albeit slowly! lol

You have changed my life beyond recognition and I feel extremely blessed to have shared in your wisdom and truth. xxxxxxxxxxxxx i know I feel the same as many, many others. Thankyou for sharing your thoughts with 'us', it was very timely for me and has encouraged me to continue on the new pathway with even stronger vigour.

Much love,
Lucyxxxx
P.S Im getting guided to tell you to have a crystal healing treatment, the energy and 'timeout' will be very healing for you. xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Are you flying with me ..... or not?

3,20 am - and still awake ....

As you are probably all aware four years
later *smile* - I am a person who believes deeply in the importance of
honesty to one self and others.

Often that means I may be in a position where I feel I
am "bearing my bottom" to the world or that I say
something that others do not like - this is known
as "authentic power or behavior" rather than
appropriate - it is a quality I am blessed to see in my
children and yes - ouch - it can hurt but the honesty
and love the words comes with, can quickly dull the
sting.

Today is going to be one of those days - well, in fact it
is 320 in the morning, so this is very clearly something
I need to get "off my chest."

Two things have saddened me deeply over the past
week and I have allowed myself to be knocked of
balance emotionally to the point that I have felt like
calling Sanctuary of Angels to an end -

The first scenario - is probably one that has been
running for some time in all areas of my life but is now being
bought to the light for change -

I have chosen to place myself in a place of immense
trust with the Angelic Realm - they bring words of
guidance and I follow that guidance in the "physical
realms" with action - that is why I am so grateful to the
Angels for if I had not "listened" I would not feel or "be"
who I am -

The Angelic realm and therefore myself as a person
of "service" wish to empower others to see who they
truly are and believe in who they truly are - and then
shine that light upon others - causing a "network "
effect of beacons of light across the world - the result
most definitely happier people and a better world to
live in -

May sound to be good to be true BUT - if - and only if -
people take guided action - it is possible.

The energy that the Angels work upon is so pure, so
perfect, that my life can seem so empty without it - it is
a part of who I am and a part of who you are - and we
are blessed to be offered this opportunity to grow with
them.


Daily, people and the world cries out for change, for
something better. To be saved. But as hard as those
tears may fall or those cries be heard, it is the
individuals themselves that need to step into the light
they are being offered and take action -

I see people choosing not to and days, weeks, even
years later - still in that place of "hope less ness" that
need not be part of their life - why?

I do not know - fear of the change they pray for,
a un - healthy attachment to their pain,
the lack of courage to take action or is it that they feel all they need do is sit and wait as the princess in her tower, hoping that one day the prince
will come.

Could it even be that we think we need money first to
save us and change the world? If so we will always
being given our power away to money - as the child
does to a bully.

Choosing to grow through that pain is far less painful
than sitting in it and I 100% feel I can say that with truth
and integrity.

It has been emotionally tiring for me this week and I
know my emotional body is so close to me at the
moment that may be I cannot see clearly - but what I do
see is people choosing not to step in to the light they
are offered, people refusing to listen to their hearts and take
action - and through those choices the world stays
stagnant and others are let down.

As I write to you I guess the lesson is being "heard" - it
is for me to be a consistent beacon of light through
choice but also allowing others to make their choices
to grow too. This lesson has been uncomfortable, I
have to say and frustrating , - I wish to give so much to
others but do they really want it?

It is the small steps of commitment and action that are
going to change lives. For people to take in that pure
light,
drink it in and follow the guidance - it may feel selfish
to make a level of commitment to yourself, to give
yourself time to heal and grow but in all honesty it is
more selfish - not to. For how can you give, when you
have nothing to give, when you are running on an
empty tank or worse - empty words!

The emotions are clearing now as I write (very
healing) and that now
takes me to the second incident of the week

Love and light is not a mask

It cannot be. For in the "light" a person's "ego"
behavior shines through and is very clear to see. It is
one thing to say you are a spiritual being but a totally
different thing to BE and walk as a spiritual
being.

To be truthful and authentic is of great importance for
own own self development and the development of
others - by being truth yourself, you give others
permission to be truth - otherwise you just live in a
cycle
and pattern of dis - honesty and illusion -

If you are not feeling "love and light" inside at any
moment - you do not place on a "love and light mask"
and pretend - have the courage and integrity to BE love
and light - and when you are not, the courage adn
integrity to work through it, so
that you may return to authenticity-

Not only for the Highest Good of yourself but for the Highest Good of others around you.

This has been bought to my attention a couple of
times recently but the "biggy" was this week by an
individual who works with the public as an Angel Healer and teacher.

I always feel angry in these situations. There are
some very vulnerable people in society. People who
have just "opened their eyes" be it through crisis or
simply choice who are searching for
guidance.

I feel that it is of great importance that therapists who
are in positions of trust are genuine, working from the
heart and not on a "ego" ride of power.

To be of service is not for personal gain, or fame or an
ego trip - it is simply a way of be- ing and working from
the heart.

It is a passion!

And yet many are on this ride of feeling
more "special " than another - labelling themselves to
separate themselves from others - to the extent of un
loving power and idol - ism.

Not one person is more special than another, more
worthy, more gifted, more beautiful or even
more "light" - that is ego creating importance, separation and abusing the vulnerability of others.

It is a therapists and spiritual teachers purpose to
work
from a place of empowerment. If there is a need for
dependency from a student or client than that is not
empowering but dis - empowering!

It is to be as a parent to a child and encourage that
child to learn to stand on their own two feet, for in truth
we are all as powerful and as wonderful as each
other.

A healer and teachers mission is to encourage a
person to see and believe that we are all equal,
nothing
less and certainly not more. When working with a
pure source of energy a person can do nothing but
empower for that is what the Angels do - they cannot
claim
to "connect" others - we are already connected - it is
simply a choice to remember that pure fact!

I apologise for maybe sounding like I am on a soap
box, I guess you can feel that this is close to my heart
and it is -too many people can abuse their place of
trust leaving others hurt or led astray with wrong
guidance and completely
dis - empowered. And that is not love and definitely
not light.

During my week in Glasgow I worked with a group that
are beyond words. Who they are, I can only feel in my
heart but to put that to paper, I would not know where
to begin.

One student was already attending an Angel Course
alongside Sanctuary of Angels. That was fine with
me, we all meet different teachers in our life time who
assist us to un lock our many gifts. There were few
things he said
that did not feel right to me, very dis - empowering but I
choose to step back - probably from fear, thinking
about
it
now, in case I sounded competitive or dis
respectful towards the students own
choices.

Another group member had a quiet word with me and pointed out the same things that had unsettled me - but still I chose to leave it.

He spoke of her book often, which was a small clue.
Do not get me wrong there are some amazing books
out there written by beautiful and genuine people but
so often the public can be mis - guided in a choice of
a teacher because of
their "large audience" without taking the time to "feel"
the way to a suitable teacher - a form of commercial
manipulation in an "ego" world -

Again, this was the students choice and he himself
was such a kind, loving person that I did not feel it was
my place to judge or intervene - he was to find his own
truth and be given the love and space to do that -


I am learning to change my "parenting" skills as my
protective side can be a bit too much for my own
children let alone any one else *smile*.

I received a parcel in the week. It was a book signed
by it's author. - why she sent to me - I do not know. I
felt dis - empowered from the words
written for me - I did not feel love, if anything it felt I was
being put in place -

I have "asked" first before sharing with you - just to
check I am coming from a place of love and the
Angels are encouraging me to share as we have the
right to "voice" and take steps when we feel
something is wrong - even if that person does work in
a place of public trust.



The words read ....

To Dear Michelle

I hope you enjoy this book of Archangels and it assists
you to connect to them, they may bring you much love
and joy.

Please do come to one of my workshops one day, so
that I may personally connect you
.

I do not share this with you for any other reason -
except this ....

Love and Light is not a mask

Who invented the alarm clock any way?

The summer holidays are coming up and the children are on "count down" - I too cannot wait for the freedom that the Summer holidays brings - no alarms clock - no need for "practical time" at all and plenty of time for play and rest -

Does anyone know you invented the alarm clock anyway - who ever it was is certainly not on my award list *grin*.


During the past few weeks while teaching here in Sussex and in Glasgow - time has not been measured or watched - and in this space of no limitation or impatience - miracles have flowed with pure grace and ease -


Last week the students and I were all siting for together for a "cake break" *smile* and the group were asking about my husband and the lack of time he spends at home - I jokingly replied that I might as well be married to the milkman - and then in my mind affirmed I did not even have a milkman -


Five minutes later the intercom buzzer went on the front door - "hello."


"Hi, I am you local milkman - do you need your milk deliveredd?"


I laughed so much - and -no ,I did not book his services - just look how quickly my thoughts caught up with me though - in a space of "no time".


And so I finish on a little more serious note with two quotes that just about sums up for me the dis - service that measuring time can bring into our lives -


It is important to live in the NOW - for only NOW, is where the guidance IS.


"Past and future veil God from our sight, burn up both with fire" - Rumi

"Time is what keeps the light from reaching us. There is no greater obstacle to God than time." Meister Echart.


"The past cannot survive in your presence. It can only survive in your absence."


Have a beautiful "time free" month ahead *smile*

Andria's Journey with the Angels ....

Angel Healing Course 2nd - 7th July 2007
Daily Journal


Day 1
Had butterflies in my tummy this morning, there is a part of me that is very nervous and afraid and another part is so excited and can’t wait to get started! I had this nervous feeling in my solar plexus on and off all day, it reminded me of when I was a child at school and felt inferior to others, always petrified that the teacher would ask me a question, sure I would never know the answer. I thought I was well and truly over this but there it was today! It always takes me a while to feel comfortable with strangers and I’m sure as the week goes on I will relax and be able to be me, I would love to be able to freely speak my truth without this inner fear (of being judged?).
We have had some beautiful meditations with the angels today and I am really enjoying the course content. Michelle feels that as a group we all have an issue with ‘self worth’ - spot on!!! I need and want to clear this. This evening I have meditated on this and asked the angels for guidance and support with this issue. I was given that I need to daily affirm that I love myself and understand that we are all equal - ‘one thing everywhere’


Day 2
I feel more confident today - no butterflies! I struggled with giving my first Angel card reading though, realizing that it is my own self-doubt and lack of self-trust that is blocking the energy. I felt like crying, I felt I just wasn’t getting anything, just a big empty nothing! Then something did come through, but, as in the past I get this feeling I am a bit of a fraud and every time something works out it’s a happy accident! I am letting go of this limiting and self-destructive belief here and now! I ask my highest angels to assist me in dissolving this illusion. I affirm that I open myself up to living life at my fullest potential, embracing my talents and gifts and loving myself and all that I am today.
We received our beautiful attunements from Michelle today, and I found it a very powerful experience. Michelle told me that I had clouds of self doubt and lack of trust hanging over my head, which is totally in line with what I have been feeling today.
I came home with a horrendous headache. I decided to meditate with the Sugilite crystal and asked the angels to assist me in releasing fear. During the meditation I saw myself standing on the very edge of a high clifftop, looking down at my toes, the sea far, far below me, twinkling blue. ‘Can you take this leap of faith?’ came the question, ‘or will you run away again through fear? Overcome this, have courage, trust. I jumped. And as I did I was overcome and overwhelmed as I was swept upwards and upwards. Huge majestic wings on my back took me soaring up into the beautiful heavens, a sparkling trail behind me...



Day 3
In bed writing this at 10.00pm and feeling very tired but content. Really enjoyed today, felt so much more confident and at ease in the group. Working with crystals and felt more comfortable with this. but aware that I feel quite clumsy at the moment, bit like learning to drive a car. I received the most beautiful Archangel Crystal Grid Healing from Bernice, which was all about balancing my masculine and feminine sides. I have felt very calm, clear, energised and happy in my heart this evening. We were given our crystal starter kit today, the crystals are so beautiful, each one so different, I love them!
We have been given an affirmation - “I see the magnificence in me!!”


Day 4
I feel as if something big has shifted today - hurrah! I feel a change, the clouds are dissolving and I feel clearer and much more confident and strong and more connected with the energy and what we are doing.
During a meditation focusing on the heart centre we were taken inside our hearts and mine was like a cage and there was a rather shabby looking bird, very frustrated, trying to get out, fluttering around. It was me...wanting to be free. I sent that bird so much love as I immediately opened the door to set it free, and off it flew, soaring upwards to the blue sky & heavenwards, becoming the most beautful white dove. My heart then became the most beautiful oasis, with the sounds of nature and water, a garden with pink bourganvillea growing all around and I sat and relaxed in the most comfortable hammock, feeling complete, in this loving tranquil, peaceful space. I walked out - leaving the door OPEN!
I am really starting to understand what it means to love yourself, I can feel a new me emerging, I know I don’t need or want to hide anymore, I want to be truly all that I am and do what I came here to do.
There has been so much self-doubt blocking me, and looking to other people for the answers - no more!
We learnt to channel the Angelic energy for healing today and it was one of the most beautiful experiences of my life. I felt as if my heart centre was just opening and opening, I felt myself go higher than the clouds and pure white love energy pouring out of me, it was truly divine. All our eyes were sparkling!

Day 5
It seems like every day I write in in here and say I feel different, well today I sense another change, a big one. I am feeling a strength I have not felt before coming from deep inside, a confidence there, an opening up of the real, real me. I love this feeling and I commit to carrying on this work, striving to be in my truth, always having the courage to speak it, walk it.
I am at last getting some clarity on what I need to do, but FIRST I HAVE HAD TO KNOW WHO I AM, and I know that may be a never-ending journey but at last I get it!! I am well and truly on that journey and I’m not getting off the conveyor belt now!
It has been an honour to share this week with five beautiful women, sharing their truths, their pain, their knowledge, their humour and their love. I will never forget them. I love them.
Today something powerful happened, Michelle took us on a journey to find our inner child and the beautiful angels were there too of course, guiding, protecting and loving us. I found me in a cold dark, dingy cellar, a very sad little six year old girl in my red and black dog tooth dress, beautiful blonde curls, sad brown eyes. I felt her pain in my heart and in my solar plexus. She said ‘Nobody listens to me, nobody hears me.’ I crouched down next to her, looked deep into her eyes with love and said ‘I will listen.’ Then I picked her up and hugged her, sending her unconditional love from my heart. My angel encircled us both with his huge protective wings and a sphere of golden light. Little Andria kind of melted into me and became part of me. I have given her what she needed, she has been heard, I now have my voice, it has strength,
When I recounted what had happened to Michelle and the group I was overcome with immense pain and sadness abut not being heard and not being given what I needed. It was so empowering to really feel this and then let it go, I cried and cried, feeling so safe in the group to do this. Thank you Michelle for supporting and guiding me through that powerful healing experience, it has been transformative
.


Day 6
I have just got home at the end of this the final day of our Angel Healing Course. I cried tears of joy on the way home as I have found me! This has been the most beautiful journey, I have found my own personal connection with God and the angels and have experienced God within me. I can hardly believe I am here writing these words. So much has happened in just six days. We, the group have all courageously stripped away layers and bared our souls, discovering our authentic selves. Each person unique and beautiful, I feel honoured to have been part of their journey. I have felt so supported and nurtured which has enabled me to do this - ‘stand naked’ as it were before others, it has been so empowering and liberating, I have never before been able to do this, and the ‘old me’ would not have believed it possible!
As I wrote yesterday I have well and truly opened the door to my real self and am walking through it with strength and trust, going forward with my life being real, giving myself what I need and creating my life the way I want it to be, letting go of the fears, illusions and limiting beliefs that have restricted me in the past, and believing in miracles!! I am not the same peron I was on Monday, I am so much more, I see the magnificence in me.
Michelle is probably the first person I have ever actually met who really does walk her talk, she is profoundly wise, and I feel very blessed to have been able to spend this week with her in her beautiful home, it has changed my life. I do not want the course to end, but it must because I have exciting and important work to do being me and shining this light of truth & love for others.

Healing in moments ...

I have just spent a week teaching yet another incredible group of people.

It amazes me how the right people come at the right time, sharing something within them - that is now ready to be bought to the light for healing.


On day one the Angels showed me that the group had no or little Self Worth and this was something that they needed to recognise and heal together during their time with me - how that would occur - I had no idea. I just had to trust and allow the guidance to come when the time was right.


The third day started all a bit out of sorts - the Angels were trying to communicate with me, while I was trying to get the children to school so that I could return an be prepared for the day ahead. Eventually I found a moment to write down their message to the group -


What is "worth"? Worth is value. To have no self worth is to have no self value.
Ask yourself child why you do not value yourself - do you compare yourself to others - for comparison is not love. You are beauty in our eyes and it is time to let that beauty shine.
You are not valued on the quantity or quality of your material possessions, or prosperity , your value is not what you have or do but who you are.-


Others cannot value you if you do not value yourself
.

The Angels then gave "tips" to the group to practice such as recognising their own qualities and being grateful for them, nurturing and loving oneself, giving oneself permission to do the things that fill them with love - such as dancing, walking, painting ..


The day then still continued to proceed against "schedule" - with mediations bought forth for the group - and then most exciting of all - I was "asked" to give the group the "box of treasures" I have full of sticking gems, feathers and glitter galore- they were to create a beautiful affirmation card to display where they could read it - and feel it - the affirmation given was "I see the magnificence in me ".


It was a gift to be part of this moment - some struggled to write those words - other were given freedom - others were healed just by being "allowed" to be messy on my lounge carpet!


By Day 5 - the feeling of Self worth had left the group -


I know I talk to you alot of time *smile* but in this week a group of amazing people did not measure time and therefore had no self placed restrictions on how long they thought their self worth issues would take to heal - we can so easily assume that an issue may take weeks, months even years to heal but that is our own judgement and restriction - why take years when it can take only moments?


I also learnt that routines have to be broken to allow in the new - when we have routine that again is a restriction - as a teacher and mother I need to be flexible - to allow in the guidance and support I ask for.


I want to close these thoughts now with a little story that happened last week -


My brother has been finding it a little difficult to move on from the memories of his childhood - and I know I cannot make him see though my eyes but I wanted to say something - just one thing that would help him to see "differently" so that he could move forwards -


The Angels then spoke through me, to him in a way that he could understand-


Imagine you are a child sitting on your parents bed and they are having a party - the room is dark and people are just chucking their coats on the bed - in the darkness- not realising you are there - you end up covered in layers of peoples' coats, not knowing which one is which. Each coat holding it's own belief system.

You then spend time - maybe the rest of your life - but a journey of finding out who each coat belongs to and handing it back - that coat and all it's belief and resposiblitys that you have carried - back to it's rightful owner.

You are then left - naked and vulnerable but in that vulnerability is purity, truth and most importantly YOU.


Even now as I type my eyes are filling up again - that message held so much love, wisdom and in it's simplicity - healing.-


We need to be honest with ourselves to heal and I mean HONEST - not critical - just honest - really look at YOU and see if you are still wearing coats that do not fit or were never even yours.


And this my friends may take moments or weeks - the measurement and restrictions of time need not exist, just as they do not in Heaven - the choice is yours x

Lucy's Angel Journal ......

Day 1 2.07.07
A lot of discussions today resonated with exactly how I feel- the push to speak my truth and to be truly honest with myself and others. I agree, it doesn’t serve others for me to keep silent – it only frustrates me and it doesn’t help me or others with our lessons.
The crystals and angel cards I picked today purported to self worth and letting ‘old’ emotions and relationships go. I felt very emotional whilst driving home and allowed the tears to flow. The feelings wont overwhelm me I know and will help me ‘experience’ life rather then rationalise/make sense of everything in my head. The groups’ lesson is self worth/esteem, which is a huge stumbling block for me. I’m hoping this week we will all grow, glow, help and support each other. I AM in the right place and change is taking place!

Day 2 3.07.07
What an amazing day! We did automatic writing and card reading today, I enjoyed both immensely! The atonement was a magical and special experience. Half way through I felt my mind begin to ‘chatter’ about issues and events and people in my past – I realise now maybe that needed to happen as a letting go and releasing of the old to make space for the new. I keep being told to live in the NOW. I realise it isn’t a case of trying – it’s a MUST.
Previously, I have always lived in the past or future. It is time NOW to live in every moment and not predict my future or others thoughts or reactions. Speaking MY truth is paramount too. It might shock some people, but that’s their issues not mine. Knowing I need to work on my self esteem, I decided today after I said thanks and gratitude for everything in my life I’d affirm all the qualities I possess I am grateful for in me! It was very empowering and I meant everything I said. I still have a way to go with loving and valuing myself but every step I take I feel my inner love growing.

Day 3 4.07.07
During one of the meditations today I felt a real shift in my emotions. Carrying the emotions of losing a baby in the past few months and the frustration, sadness and anger of feeling abandoned has weighed me down for too long. Those feelings are no longer helpful and kept me tied to the past and in a dark place and greatly affected my sense of worth. I realise there is nothing ‘wrong’ with me. I am a loving and worthwhile person and I acknowledge the lesson that was present there for me. The meditation shifted that block and put me into ‘my’ energy. I realise letting the old go leaves space for the new to enter. It was a very freeing and exciting feeling!
We gave healing treatments and I felt unconditional love pouring through me. Today has been freeing and liberating! Miracles are unfolding – when leaving Michelle’s today I heard I can move into my new flat! I feel I’m aligned with the inner me and the new is flooding in.

Day 4 5.07.07
After basking in the glory of the ‘new’ me, life threw an old issue/pattern back at me last night with full force. After initially panicking and shaking uncontrollably I remembered an exercise we learnt in class. I lay down and visualised my emotional body rising away from my physical body and being still. From there I could see the situation for what is really was – other people’s fear and issues which no longer ‘fit’ with me. Now I love and respect myself too much to allow myself to be back in a negative ‘old’ space. Within an hour I was back into alignment with my inner peace rather than the days/weeks/months it has previously taken.
As a group we are growing together…. I feel loved and supported, and part of a family. I feel privileged to be part of their journeys too and I love watching everyone grow and illuminate when they realise their own inner beauty and light. We learnt about channelling energy today and I loved giving my two treatments. I feel I was being urged today to be more open to receiving. If I’m more open to receiving I’ll have more to give and finally I acknowledge I deserve to receive.

Day 5 6.07.07
Wow! Another special, amazing, unique, refreshing, releasing day. It’s difficult to put into words the transformations that take place each day. I made another huge shift today in releasing a cord I had with another person. I still love them deeply but I know it’s time to move forward and for us both to grow separately. I went from crying to giggling quite quickly. The love and support within the group is so strong now – we are one (whilst still growing individually too). I will feel sad to travel home tomorrow and leave the love and light from within Michelle’s home behind. However I know I will take the love and wisdom with me forward in my journey. I also know I have made friends and travelling companions that will stay in my heart forever.

Day 6 7.07.07
Whilst our course has drawn to a close today I feel it’s merely the beginning………. I know something special and extraordinary has taken place for me this week. I’m eager and excited to fly now in a new direction walking my talk and speaking my truth. Michelle has given me the tool’s to access a new love and wisdom from within myself. I truly believe miracles have taken place this week.

If you painted your life by Beverly Williams

If you painted life, would it be mostly grey?
With rare flames of scarlet for each special day
And odd strands of silver where you kept your illusions
Mixed in with the blues showing loss and confusion

If you painted your life, would there be storms?
For the times you lost courage and agreed to conform
Perhaps you’d paint stars, one for each dream
That gave life a meaning, or so it once seemed.

Has anyone else painted clouds in your sky?
And dulled your bright colours as your chances passed by?
Maybe it is time to take back the brush
Start painting your own life, enough is enough.

You can paint rainbows, banishing grey
And splash on some gold, starting today
Puddles of silver: shimmering: bright
Walk out of the shadows, come into the light.

Perhaps you need mellow, golden nut brown
Are you running too fast, is it time to slow down?
Paint yourself peace and space just to be
Gentle blue mornings, a soft lilac sea.

In your painting of life let the beautiful days
Shimmer in gold and light up the greys
Paint it with courage, thread silver strands
Pick up your brush, life’s in your own hands.
