many people will ask me what's the difference between being an intuitive and being a medium or a psychic and my response is it's pretty much all the same it's just how we label ourselves and how we wish to promote ourselves we all have instincts and we develop those instincts to a place where we trust them we're very intuitive we do it daily we call it psychic and so i qualify for all of that now being a medium is one who speaks to spirits and this i have done for well over thirty five years i travel around the united states and other countries i've visited connecting with spirit connecting with the healing aspects and so i've learned a lot about how to help people how to have people help themselves and that's really my byline is helping individuals help themselves through intuitive knowing well today i'd like to talk to you about the extraordinary l i hate to be the one that shatter your reality but the world it's not flat yeah it's not flat we live in a multi verse and this multi verse allows us to experience a lot more than what we're led to believe in the physical reality and most of us have a tendency to live within our mind and we spend our time in our mind oh i guess thinking that things are given way and we limit our perception of what is real we live in a world that is not only physical but it is spiritual and it is also connected in with other realities and we cannot really know about this until we get out of our thinking or our praying now living the extraordinary life is living a life where we do not feel the victim we do not feel that we are obligated we do not conform to what we are told but rather we live with integrity we live with respect for ourselves and all living beings native americans discovered this years ago that the true way to live is to live in harmony with our creation all over the years i've studied with shamans all over the world and when i it whether it's in a kiva in chill a whore in the mountains in vancouver area of canada what i have found is they all say the same thing is that we are part of a spiritual reality we are spirits in drag we are living beings that have taken our vehicles or forms and from these forms we have wonderful experiences but they are not just to thinking to do but to process and to evolve ourselves so when i talk to the spirits and i do this quite frequently they tell me that we have come into this earth plane to evolve ourselves that we are in a process of personal development and that for every experience that we have there is cause and effect action and reaction and in being in this situation we allow ourselves to experience things process them and then come to new realizations thus each time we have an experience we transcend our previous reaction to it so therefore we become more action interaction bringing ourselves to results or realizations that transcend us now living in a world that is not flat that means that what we can create beyond our limited thinking that if we believe that only what we see feel and have been told is ours that's all we will receive in our lives but there is a law that we call manifestation and manifestation is the ability to have that which we desire now we have to go back to the concept of respect and integrity it is not that we can ask for that which belongs to another but we can manifest for our self that which is uniquely ours and we can through that become able to extend experience and have or make believe or even pretend imagination is how the soul sees how much time have you given to thinking about your soul and what that truly is now often there's confusion between what is the soul and what is the spirit and i like to look at it this way your saw is your specific d n a patterns that make you individually or if you'd like to think of it that way the initial conception of who you are as an individual and the spirit is the breath of the divine that is and all living things and as it was breathed into you it brought your d n a to life so your soul is that personality that individuality and the spirit is that sense of  now when you live if you were plodding through your life and you feel like you're surviving and you feel as if day by day it couldn't get any worse you are not connected with who you are for your soul is starving that sense of depression that sense of despair that is when your soul is saying feed me give me something extraordinary to live for i came into this reality as a free being aware of my turn a day and you are now limited me and shutting me down and literally punishing me by not allowing me the freedom to be so what if you started using your imagination what if you started allowing your so to speak to you to tell you that which was yours by divine right to tell you who what you could have and using your mind instead of to tell you what you couldn't have or what was wrong to tell you what was right and how to accomplish it how would that work well i think the best ways to start with a plan what  planned your life as a vacation one a long extraordinary vacation well you're probably saying teresa that's not realistic i have to make money i have to yes i know but think of the components of a vacation you plan to have fun you plan to socialize to read us to explore maybe to take long walks to get some exercise to learn something extraordinary to live in a beautiful place for a period of time eat great food and you know have time to yourself to really really reflect and be present what an extraordinary way to live why wouldn't you choose to live this way why do you not plan to live in a way that gives you joy in your life that gives you a sense of fullness in your life wh do you plan to survive your life i can see someone's tombstone here lies so and so she survived her life wouldn't you rather your tombstone says outplaying catch me on the other side i have an extraordinary life now shamans when they talk about the imagination who what they want to teach us is the quality of manifestation and manifestation comes not by wishful thinking it comes by having a clear focus and allowing that which is already yours to come to you well that's a kind of an interesting concept how can it already be yours if you don't have it think about the word manifest if you look at in webster's you will find that is cargo it is a list or recording of possessions in your cargo hold so it's already there for you it's stored somewhere waiting for you to pull it out what would it take for you to open your mind and invite that which you desire into your life this is what we call manifest now it's important to realize when you work with manifesting to use words or ideas that counter dictate what you want to accomplish this let's start with this say that you want to improve your income by saying i want i desire i need leaves you wanting desiring and needing so you want to use words like i celebrate i enjoy i flush or abandoned words that really talk about what you want because parts have an incredible power and as you're talking about what you desire you may need to restate that and say i know double my let's say messengers to spirit saying to you that whatever you ask for you will get so hear what you're saying are you saying this is a piece of crap and are you having lots of crap in your life are you saying this pisses me off and you're finding you're having kidney opportunities what's going on in your life so if we go back to the idea of having an extraordinary life if you really honestly sit down and ask yourself what you wanted out of life would you want everything that you have i would say yes because you have it because it's been what she want but are you enjoying it are you connecting with it are you feeling delighted what if you tweaked it a little bit think about going to work every day getting up in going by  humbug the alarm has gone off running in and putting a piece of garbage in your mouth of some sort driving down the road grumbling because of the other drivers getting to your job and being  people don't appreciate or assist you that they cause snags and frustrations you work and then driving home in the traffic feeling too hungry to make a proper nourishment for yourself and then going to sleep after watching the news which tells you what's wrong with the world we already know what's wrong with the world what's right with world you know your mind is an incredible tool and the more there you look out what doesn't work the more you'll get more of it but the more that you challenge it to find what does were more it will draw you to those understandings in awarenesses so let's take that life that life of survival and look at how you could tweak that you still have to get up in the morning what would you like to wake up to the smell of coffee or get yourself out on a magic pot that turns on it a certain time so that the the alarm is the smell of warm fragrance  great coffee maybe our kona coffee from or i drifting into your bedroom or maybe you like music think it alarm wakes you up with music and have music filtered through your life and then as far as food what if you made a pre made for the week the food that you want to eat and you had muffins and coffee or you had scrambled eggs and coffee look at which you can do to make your breakfast more enjoyable that you nourish yourself with something that you really want and how about that commute to work you know what i do i love the library c d s books and c d s as i'm driving down the road i'm very much aware of everything that's going on outside of me but there's a wonderful story and in chanting story i like c s i and kind of investigative types of books i also like some of the old once the pride and prejudice so i listen to those when i'm going on the road i can also chant who are or seeing along with my favorite but don't have it mixed in with commentary of what's wrong with the world what's terrible in your life have it on a cd or have it in another form that put your receiving pandoras beautiful because a down streams just pure music with little or no commercials just have something that gives you the delight in life not all the trivia the tripe the frustration in life and so you get to work have you set up your space do you have beautiful things that you can enjoy do you have an old cracked dirty cup or do you have a nice to try out and mark do you have beautiful things a window that you can look out of or do you have your back to the window sometimes to shifting the furniture resetting the stage they call therefore ensure a but basically it's commonsense it's making things beautiful attractive in approachable make your environment a little bit more inviting a little bit more comforting if your chair is uncomfortable get yourself a pad if your legs ache get yourself a foot stool make your environment better and then begin by teaching other people how to treat you you know if you come into me and i tell you that you need to sit very still don't cross your arms or your legs yoke away and you'll say aha that's your research she has so many rules and regulations but she's a great psychic so if you want to greats like a greeting you have to play the game and so you'll be other telling other people what i expect and everyone will expect to give me that if they want my services all right well those are not things i ask of my clients but what i would say to you is that you can say to someone i really would prefer if you asked me instead  tell me or you can say here see my list and and hold up your list have your list in front of you these are my to do is go ahead and write it on the bottom of my list and when it's a priority i will get to it this is a good way of letting people see that you are actively busy and letting them assess for themselves that maybe what they're demanding of you is not a priority that maybe they are wasting your time so that when somebody comes in and they just want to distract you by renting a raving you push that list over to him and say i've got a full schedule for today put it down and maybe i can make ten minutes for coffee and we can talk about it's interesting how when people begin to understand that you have priorities they begin to be more respectful and that is probably the biggest key to an extraordinary life expect respect expect respect from yourself and from other people now that's an interesting concept how do you respect yourself well let's be honest if you had a child would you tell this child that they needed to work all day ok go outside and weed the law on and then come in and do the dishes and help make the dinner and for the clothes and mommy will pay you five dollars whole five told wow so your child is really excited about this wow i'm going to get five dollars wow and then when the end of the day is done you hold up the five dollars and you say ok this one is for your braces and this one is for your clothing and this is for your food and this is for the cable t v and this one has to go because we're going to buy you a computer for christmas you did a good job can you feel that child looking at that empty nuss of i made five dollars but what do i have to show for it yes i have all these wonderful things but there's a sense of feeling cheated and each and every one of us feel cheated when we work and only pay bills and so we go out and overspend which creates more debt which creates more need to work and it becomes a cycle so the first respect is to pay yourself pay yourself ten percent of what you make regardless give it to yourself now you may say but i've got bills to pay well i want you to realize that you have bills to pay because you are needy and because you are needy you charge and once you are not charging everything you need think about it you go in to have a cup of coffee somewhere and the coffee is three dollars but if you're going to put it on your credit card you think oh i just i want to put three dollars on my credit card so you pick up a cookie or maybe you buy yourself a cup and so you've got fifteen dollars on your credit card well we all know that fifteen dollars times interest by the time you probably pay it off you paid forty five dollars for that fifteen dollar item and also you wanted was a three dollar cup of coffee wow how did you end up being so disrespectful to yourself you did it because you didn't honor got young person in you who when you worked hard a leave your child with one dollar out of the five that they had her or even more so begin paying yourself and what you're going to find if you pay yourself is that you have money you have money all the time and you have less debt because psychologically and test this one out for yourself psychologically when you have money in your pocket you don't charge as much in fact you may find yourself not charging at all so next month your bills are a little bit less you begin to find that what gives you enjoyment is just that one cup of coffee not the mug in the cookie and now you've got to go to the gym to work after the cookie right i know let me tell you so the first thing you have to ask is for respect so when you begin to teach other people how to treat you begin by being really clear that you expect respect that you live a life of integrity based on your values not on someone else's values and as said life of integrity you began to open yourself to perceive that you were not part of a flat world but a multiverse so let's go back to the idea of you know how to function in a physical reality but to to know that our physical bodies show us what we need to know about the reality we live in there's a metaphysical saying as above so below as below so about this is one of the seven hermetic principles now these are the rules of our reality and what this means is that if you look in a microscope you will pretty much have the same view that you have looking in a telescope that we are a microcosm of the macrocosm and a mac sm of a microcosm so that anything you know like take our physical body you will have an understanding about our reality and so let me take that a little further if you look inside this physical body you will find a pulmonary system the lines right and you will find i guess they call it respiratory and then the heart and and that's the cardiovascular system and the digestive system the end of korean system the limb and nation system oh it's all in there right well we've got a nervous system when you think about it if you lived in the heart you might be aware of the longs or the brain or the digestion but it's all part of your reality you have to have that oxygen coming in you have to have that food coming in and you have to have the limitation of the toxins you have to have the glandular system functioning or just isn't totally i balance and so it is that we live in a reality that in our reality there is a lot more coming in and influencing us that we are not aware of and that is what we call the spiritual realms or different inventions now i'm going to separate those because i want you to realize that not everything in another dimension is spiritual but everything in this reality is spiritual now that's kind of out crazy comment isn't it everything in this reality is
