Too much time with technology gadgets?

So you think you spend too much time with technology ---- hmmm, you may be right.

In the past century, we have come a long way in communications. We have welcomed televisions, computers, and cell phones into almost every home in America. These technologies have virtually taken over our lives and almost every room of homes.

For some, this represents progress and ways of staying connected with our friends and family around the world. For others, these technologies represent a disturbing replacement of face-to-face communication. For still others, technology is a bad word synonomous with robot takeovers and mindless human zombies with eyes glued to the lit-up screen.

Well, I thought I would share a few of my thoughts regarding technology's effects on mediumship/spiritual development with you.

I have used all of those implements I listed above (television, cell phone, & computer). In fact, I am using one right now to communicate with you via this blog. Technology can assist me in certain arenas and has a place in my life (at this time).

However, technology has its limits (of course).

When you are developing mediumship, you are involved in attunement with Nature, God, and Spirit. None of those are technology-based.

Certain spiritual websites, blogs, and media programs can assist you on your soul journey. Afterall, words of wisdom and spiritual examples are helpful. However, none of these can replace right practice, right intention, and the importance of attunement in mediumship development.

Some other things to consider with high-level technology use:

  • Do you obsessively check your voicemails/emails/texts? Set a reasonable time limit on your technology use. Spend time with the people you are in the physical presence of.

  • Do you fill every minute to the extent that you can't sit quietly when you find yourself with some downtime? Focus on communication with your soul. Become comfortable with spending time with your own thoughts. Perhaps a daily meditation routine would help you cope with stress, find spiritual solutions, and experience comfort.

  • Are you sitting up almost every night in front of the television watching reality shows and/or crime dramas? Vegging out like this with mindless antics and/or fear-producing images is not helpful. For attunement to the Highest and Best, I have found that quiet time with family, reading, journaling, and other methods of unwinding produce healthy sleep and a healthy mindset.

  • Speaking of sleep ... Are you sleeping well at night? Getting good and deep sleep is important. Some of the best spirit visitations happen during deep natural sleep. When you are well-rested, you have clarity of mind (needed for good strong mediumship). What is your proximity to electronic devices? The electric and magnetic frequencies of alarm clocks, TV or computer monitors, and cell phones all have a physiological effect on you. Is it dark in your sleeping area? Darkness is vastly important for your body cycle and circadian rhythm.

In my own life, I have noticed the vast difference between my days of high-technology use and my days of little to no technology use. When I have set aside and/or used technology in moderation, I grow my relationships in accordance with Spiritual Natural Law and attune myself to awareness of God.

Bottomline: Strive for moderation in all things, especially (in this case) technology. I strongly encourage you to evaluate this for yourself. We LEARN from interaction with other souls. We need prayerful solitude to CONNECT with the quiet voice within. We THRIVE when we have a good balance.

Flashes of light

I am a medium , so I 'see' things. *smile* Well, every now and then, I see a small light. (And I don't mean an orb or a light flying around the room like Tinkerbell.) I am talking about a small pinprick of light that remains stationary and lasts for 2-3 seconds. It resembles a star from the night sky, albeit a very miniature one. This little 'flash of light' is a spirit. Sometimes I see a 'flash of light' (or a miniature star) around clients during readings --- either near the client's chair or in another part of the room. Also, I remember seeing them in a museum, on the trail in the woods, here at home, and at church. When I see that pinprick of light, I focus on asking the spirit to provide me with more information and to share their essence . Much like seeing spirit in side vision , it's a way that we can perceive those in spirit. These flashes of light are just another way for spirit loved ones to communicate that they are with us. In fact, some...

Timeframe for spirit contact

Q: My mom just died unexpectedly last week. Is it too soon for me to try to make contact with her through you? I vaguely remember someone telling me that they're not "available" right after they pass? Is there a general timeframe? Please let me know. Thank you. A: There is no official wait time before establishing communication with a spirit loved one. I have noticed some spirits are ready to communicate immediately and other spirits take longer. Some mediums suggest a six month time period. I feel this is a good timeframe for many clients because by then they have processed some of their grief and are not in a desperate space. There is a difference between being ready and being needy. It just depends on the client and the spirit. Trust your own soul regarding this. When you are ready, you just know. What a blessing it is that you know you will connect with your mother's spirit in divine right timing and that love never dies. If you have a general question whose answ...

Your job during a mediumship reading

If you are the person who is receiving a mediumship reading and desiring spirit contact, you have a very important job --- CONFIRMATION. This means confirmation either by your own personal knowledge or thru the personal knowledge of another person known to the spirit. During the course of the mediumship reading, you can confirm the information that you know to be true. And some information may require validation after the reading with friends or other family members who are privy to this certain info. Here are some examples of ways in which a spirit may try to validate who they are: The spirit's personality traits or physical characteristics may be described. This is part of what I call the Essence of Spirit . Most spirits are willing to share how they passed with the medium. Sometimes the spirit will give names very clearly or just the initial. Often spirits will give important dates of reference to further validate themselves. They have been known to mention other family members,...
