Hope you'll join me tomorrow night at the Crystal Garden for my awesome experiential workshop: "Don’t Micromanage Your Life ~ How Your Spiritual Managers Can Handle the Minutiae So You Can Focus on the Big Stuff"... 

Here's what one of my former guests had to say about here experience...

 “My daughter and I attended one of Michele’s Spirit Guide workshops ~ a much needed class about being the CEO of your own life and allowing your Spirit Guides to handle the ‘small stuff.’

I decided to attend this class because I had gotten so busy taking care of everyone else in my life that I really wasn’t taking care of myself. I finally had an ‘ah-ha moment’ that reminded me that I was the only person who could make myself happy. So the class seemed like something that I could definitely use in my day-to-day life. 

In the workshop I learned how to prioritize my life, and all the things that are in my life, so that I have time to think about the important things. I also had a great awakening moment by completing the worksheets that Michele provided. I came away with a wonderful mission statement for what I want to do in my life. And my daughter, who is 14, came away with more from that 2-hour class then I could ever imagine. 

The results I received after the workshop are kinda funny, but this is the honest truth. I had recently purchased a treadmill and it was finally delivered about 2 days after the class with Michele. My husband and I attempted to put this machine together and worked on it for approximately 2 hours before giving up.  

Parts were missing, the instructions were horrible and I was frustrated! I had been through many undecided moments about the purchase since the day I bought it, so I considered returning it. I got in the shower and when I was in there I was mentally having a conversation in my head about letting the go of the small stuff… ‘Go ahead and try to work on that one Spirit Guides, I am done!!’ was about the statement that I made.  

The next day I pulled into my driveway to pick up my daughter and she handed me an envelope that was delivered UPS 2nd Day. In that envelope were the missing screws and instruction sheet exactly where we got stuck the night before. My daughter looked at me with a shocked expression and said, ‘Now that is a great bunch of Spirit Guides!’”

Okay, so in the interest of full disclosure, I'm having a little bit of a mini-meltdown today.

Why, you ask? Well...

My Mom's still in the hospital and is being prepped for surgery tomorrow, I've jam-packed my September schedule with some very demanding (albeit way cool) business opportunities that are totally stressing me out right about now, and I've had 3 different calls from 3 different people today letting me know that events I've scheduled for September and October have to be changed for one reason or another. {Deep breath}

I'm stressed out, more than a little overwhelmed and totally aware that all of these things are ~ somehow and in some way I can't even begin to understand just yet ~ in Divine order.

And yet they still suck when you're the one going through them. So let me just dispel any illusion that you may have that people who live a "spiritual" life are always balanced and serene (believe it or not, I get this a lot from people).

We're all human and we're doing the very best we can with what we're dealing with. So remember to have a little compassion for each other. All too often we have no idea what the person who's next to us in the grocery line, snarling at the cashier, is going through in their personal life.

As for me, I could cry or scream or throw a temper-tantrum. But really, I don't have the energy for all that drama right now. So instead, I'm turning off the computer and taking a nap.

As I fall asleep I'll be asking my Guides to comfort me, restore me and help me regain at least a little bit of my balance and serenity as I rest (or at least not kill anyone when I wake up).

Oh yeah, and if you see me in the grocery store wearing one slipper and mutter to myself while snarling at the cashier, don't judge me... it's been a rough week.

With the rain steadily dripping on my roof this afternoon, I'm reminded of the importance of connecting with the elements.

How appropriate, considering that the rainstorm is in perfect sync with my prep for an Elemental Spirit Guide workshop I'm teaching later this week.

As I read my notes on water, I'm reminded to let this purifying element wash away my "negative thoughts, limiting beliefs, fears or unhealthy habits...in order to nurture my goals into existence".

What great advice. I think I'll go stand in the rain for a few minute and do just that.

Just finished prepping the Magical Writing Workshop that I'm hosting at Jamar's tomorrow afternoon and I am so excited.

I know I probably say this a lot, but this is one of my favorite classes to teach because it gives guests a solid spiritual tool they can use to connect with the energy of their Higher Selves and their Spirit Guides again and again. And that is powerful stuff.

Plus, I just LOVE hearing about all the inspiration that folks get during this workshop. It always amazes me and thrills me when I see that light bulb go off for someone when they finally get the message they need and it clicks for them on a deep spiritual level.

And my favorite part is a fun little group exercise we do at the end (but I can't give it away now, you'll just have to come to find out for yourself).

Hope to see you tomorrow at Jamar's. To register, call 561-630-2280.

Life is cyclical. It curves and bends and folds back on itself in the most interesting patterns…

Lately, I’ve found myself revisiting some old issues dealing with the themes of balance, boundaries and empowerment. Just last year I started Wake Up Goddess so that my life would be more balanced, so that I could have healthier boundaries around work and so that I could feel empowered in what I do.

But to tell you the truth, I’ve spent the last month in a bit of a tailspin. I’ve been overbooked, overburdened and bogged down in the minutiae. Ironically, these are exactly the spiritual issues that I was teaching about in my 3-week Spirit Guided teleseminar series “Reclaiming Your Life: Body, Mind & Spirit” which ended last night.

The beauty of the spiritual process and my own spiritual path is that by hosting these virtual workshops, I was given exactly what I need to receive in the exact moment I needed it ~ simply by sharing it with others. 

As I was pulling all of the spiritual tools and techniques together for my virtual workshops, I was reminded to keep using them in my own life. And then I was reminded how incredibly damn effective they are!

The results for me and my clients over this past 3-weeks have been amazing. Personally, working with my Guides in such a focused manner has helped me reconnect with my own purpose as a teacher.

The process has also helped me let go of my issues around control and spiritual “micro-management.” And because I was willing to play along, my Guides orchestrated some synchronistic events to hook me up with my very first virtual assistant (who I officially hired today!) so that I can get out of “overload” and start focusing on the BIG stuff!

So next month I’ll be rolling out some really cool, spirit-centered products, program and services that absolutely makes my soul sing (and hopefully yours too). And I’m more excited about my future, the futures of my clients and the future of my business than ever before.

Trust me, I’m living proof that when you honor your spirit the benefits will carry over into every other area of your life! Enjoy the journey (including the curves)!

The New Year is a time when even the least sentimental of your pessimistic pals will wax romantic about the passage of precious time and look forward with a raised chin and a new resolve to the days ahead and the promise they hold.

It's a time when people think about new beginnings and give themselves permission to start over, no matter how badly they think they've screwed up in the past. It's a clean slate, a fresh start, a brand new day...

And why not? Why not just go ahead seize the energy of the new year and move it forward into the rest of your year? Grab hold of it with both hands ~ the promise, the possibilities ~ and leap into the next decade with abandon.

In 2010 I want to be awake in my life and live it fully. I want to taste fabulous food for the pleasure and the nourishment of it. I want to float in the ocean with my eyes closed and know that the entire sea supports me. I want to run, just because I can. I want to dance with my friends and laugh until my cheeks hurt.

And the only person who can stop me is me. So in 2010 I resolve to ~ as my Guides have so kindly suggested already (darn learning curve) ~ get out of my own way and really enjoy my life. I hope you'll join me on this amazing journey into... well, I don't know what yet, but I bet it's gonna be a blast.

Today my Spirit Guides have reminded me of the importance of taking care of my physical body.

When life gets too busy it's easy to skip that morning walk or grab a burger instead of a healthy meal. And most of us slip up every now and again.

Lately I've been blissfully busy building my business ~ doing readings, regressions and private sessions for some of the most amazing and inspiring people!

This work feeds my soul in so many positive ways, but I have to admit that the wacky schedule has caused me at times to neglect my body.

So today I'm making a commitment to honor this beautiful vessel that allows me to move through this world and experience all of the magic any mystery of the human experience. And I invite you to join me to do the same for yourself.

So here's the challenge, make a list of wonderful things you can do for your body and then choose at least 3 that you WILL do within the next week (Within One Week is what we call the WOW factor).

Here' my list:
~Go for a walk
~Eat at least one really healthy meal a day
~Get a massage (oh yeah, this one is definitely on my WOW list!)
~Dance
~Lift weights
~Give yourself a pedicure (or better yet, go out for one)
~Use a really fabulous face mask (grab a girlfriend and a bottle of wine and make sure to take pictures for this one)
~Soak in a hot tub with some yummy bath salts
~Do yoga or stretching exercises
~Breathe deeply and let your body get soak in the oxygen
~Drink lots of H2O
~Get plenty of sleep

Don't forget to make your own list, or borrow a few tips from mine. And remember, a busy schedule is no excuse for not caring for yourself with love.

You Are Never Alone
From the time you're born you have a powerful spiritual support system offering you guidance and wisdom throughout life's journey. These loving beings are known as Spirit Guides.

Your Guides know your true potential in life and their greatest desire is to help you achieve it. By learning to tap into their endless stream of loving energy you're able live your life with more joy and purpose than ever before.

When you learn how to connect with your Guides, and to truly listen to their advice and guidance, you're blessed with a deep sense of security in this world that stems from knowing that you are never alone and you are always supported.

Who Are Your Spirit Guides?
Spirit Guides come in many shapes and sizes and are connected to you in myriad ways. Some Guides travel with you for your entire lifetime, or many lifetimes, while others may only step in help you through a specific time or challenging situation and then move on. 

Sometimes you're acquainted with your Guides through past life connections, and now these old friends walk with you in spirit as you move through the challenges and triumphs of this new lifetime. Still others may be relatives or ancestors who've crossed into spirit and now watch over you lovingly, advising and protecting you from the other side of the veil. 

Then there are the Guides who connect with you because you share a common interest, such as a love of painting or writing, that they were deeply connected to during their own earthly experience. These Guides can be very inspirational and motivating as they help you further your shared craft.

And finally, some Spirit Guides have never been in physical form at all. The goal of these esoteric beings is to help you understand the deeper spiritual nature of your soul and your connection to the Divine. These Guides help you recognize and fulfill your spiritual purpose on earth and keep gently pushing you back on track when you stray too far from the course. 

Getting In Touch - Communicating with Your Spirit Guides
If you really want to connect with your Spirit Guides, the best place to start is with your own spirit.

If your energy is low due to depression, stress or fatigue, or you're simply distracted by life's demands, you could be blocking the messages Spirit is trying to send. When this happens you may feel cut off from your Guides. Or, the messages you receive may be indecipherable ~ more like static or "white noise" than true spiritual guidance. 

Fortunately, crafty as they are, your Guides will work to help you break through these blocks by sending you signs and even employing emissaries ~ such as pets, loved ones, wild animals and even strangers ~ to bring you the messages you most need. 

But you can help make their job easier by taking the time to love and care for yourself. When you do, you reconnect with your Higher Self and raise your personal vibration to become closer to the Universal Spirit. And when your vibration is higher, communicating with Spirit Guides becomes much easier. 

Raising Your Vibration Through Love
In our world, the highest vibration is one we call Love. So any time you open your heart to love ~ love of a spouse, love of a friend, love of yourself (and that's a big one!) ~ you come closer to the Divine guidance that is your birthright.

When you open yourself up to loving others and being loved, you raise your vibration and open the channels for spiritual guidance to pour into your life. So the bottom line is this: whenever you feel unworthy or unable to connect with your Guides, simply open your heart to the emotion of love and true guidance will follow.

Blessed be!

PS ~ If you would like to learn more about how to fully connect with YOUR Spirit Guides, I'll be offering a Spirit Guide workshop series at The Crystal Garden in November and December. Go to my events page for more information.

There are many ways to honor your Guides and one of the best ways is simply by honoring yourself.  Take a bath, go for a walk, breathe deeply ~ whatever it takes to help you relax and reconnect.  

This makes you a clearer channel to receive guidance in all aspects of your life.  Remember that when you seek guidance and you receive a clear and positive message, the most important thing you can do is trust and follow the guidance you have received.

Here are some other creative ways to honor your Spirit Guides today:
~ Light a candle in their honor
~ Buy or pick fresh flowers for them     
~ Dance   
~ Laugh openly and freely
~ Play with your pets or children
~ Pray   
~ Help someone else   
~ Display photos of your ancestors
~ Meditate
~ Ask them for help     
~ Say “thank you” to them
