Your Spirit Guides and Guardian Angels are Always There For You, and They Are Truly Only a Whisper Away!
They are full of insights and wisdom and they want to help us, support us, love us, laugh with us, assist us in anything we want them too. . . But they can not intervene or change anything in our lives unless we ask them to. It’s so simple, it’s as easy as asking “I would love some help from … To assist me with …” It doesn’t hurt, in fact, it helps to c
Whether or not you are aware of it, and there are so many who aren’t aware, Everyone is a channel for spirit guidance. Within each of us is the ability and the capacity to connect with the spiritual energies that surround us all the time.
Its so amazing! Not only is this apparent in our everyday lives, in nature, and even within the animal world, such as our pets, birds and butterflies that surround us as well as part of our own intuitive faculties. This is a power, if you will, that connects us all. When my children were small I used to say to them that they had “Superhero Powers”, but those powers could only grow and be stronger if they believed and took care of them.
The sad fact is many people assume that working or communicating with their spirit guides and angels requires them to have a “special gift or talent”, so they don’t even attempt to utilize these wonderful “gifts”. In a way it does require each person to have a “gift or talent”, the good news is we all have this “special gift and talent”. I actually feel uncomfortable at times calling it a “gift or talent” because it is an ability that is instantly ours from before we are even born. WE ARE ALL BORN INTUITIVE!
It simply is a matter of being open to receiving the guidance that is always available to us. If you are a parent then you may have all ready experienced the fact that our children are little “psychic” beings who seem to be able to commune with imaginary friends from “the heavenly realm”. Many folks assume that spirit and the angelic realm is far away and therefore, difficult to reach. It’s not off in some magical place, it is magical but it is truly as close as a whisper away. Children can “predict” events and they all have a gentle “knowing” of “events”, people, and places that we as adults have managed to stifle a long time ago, probably as very young children because our parents and teachers told us “it’s just your imagination” or “stop fibbing”. We just assumed that because they were our parents or guardians that they knew what was best for us and if they said we were imagining things, if we were relatively good children, we listened to our parents and we would turn off that wonderul creative part of us.
Creativity is one of the main ways spirit can and does communicate with us and through us.

TIPS TO HELP YOU COMMUNICATE WITH YOUR SPIRIT TEAM ~
- If I could ask parents today to do one thing it would be to encourage their children, nurture them with love, impress positive energy on them, and teach their children that they are normal, better than normal, and when they tell you “Uncle Bob” came to say hi, affirm their voice by nurturing that ability, ask them if “Uncle Bob” had any special message for you, ask “How is he doing?” What a wonderful way to open up a line of communication with your children, and allowing them the opportunity to trust you at a very early age.
- Caution: You want to be careful with the age level that your dealing with, particularly when discussing death. You may not want to say to your child “Uncle Bob is dead” because at really young ages, usually from birth to age five to seven, many children don’t understand the meaning of death and have difficulty understanding that there are other dimensions.
- Choose words carefully when trying to explain death to a young child. Words like “Going to Heaven”, “Crossing over to Summerland”, “In the Sky, looking down watching over us” are examples of ways to explain death to a little one when it happens to someone or something (a pet for intance) close to us in our lives.
- When communicating with your own guides (spirit, angelic, or elemental) you also want to assure that the level of information received is accurate, but also of the highest quality and for the highest good. This means that we want to attract only the most reliable and enlightened guides or spirits. To be sure that your “Team” is of the highest good, set your intention that these are the only guides you will speak or commune with.
- Another important factor is to be receptive to the guidance. BE OPEN, BE AN OPEN RECEIVER. This openness is what allows you to feel the love and support your guides have to offer. A common mistake that we make in attempting to commune with our guides is to strain to communicate with them. The more you try to be forceful in your requests the more you are putting up a shield, its more about vibrations, a sharing of energies, and when we are in contact with our guides its because we have been able to gently adjust our vibration to match their vibration, making it easy to “hear”, “see” or “feel” those messages.
- One of the most important things you can do to be a clear channel is to RELAX and TRUST. Never try to force channelling; this is just trying to hard, again changing your vibration making it denser and harder to penetrate. Allowing the energy to flow through you requires a relaxed and receptive state of being.
- Do not rush the process. Take your time and go slowly; do not rush the process. Pause between each step, taking as much time as you need. It is important not to have expectations, or to overreach. You want to be open, and relaxed.
- Make the environment your in feel comfortable, open and inviting to them, your spirit guides and angels.
- When setting up your environment, have a comfortable place to sit or a bed if you would rather lie down.
- Drink lots of water before, during and after. Not only have I personally experienced this but have been told by many spiritual teachers as well as my own guides, its so important to be and stay hydrated. For some reason when your open to energy change it can dehydrate you, similar to a cleansing. Its a good idea to have a glass of water near by.
- Set the mood. Everyone is different, some people love a sunny room, maybe preferring the morning sunlight, so open up those curtains and blinds and be thankful for the sun warming your skin on this particular day. Some may prefer a dim lit room, lower window blinds and/or close curtains, light a candle.
- Lighting a candle with the intent to communicate. This is a wonderful way to send out the vibration that you want to communicate. Candles have always been a way to comfort and set intentions. Candles have a place in history, dating way back to biblical times. Candles have been lit in ritual ceremonies to call in angels and dieties during weddings, funerals and other important ceremonies and celebrations. You may also choose to light incense and/or candles.
- Include in your space any crystals, sacred objects, or pictures that are meaningful to you.
- Create an alter. Find a place in your home, in your kitchen, bedroom, near the fireplace, wherever you feel most comfortable. Decorate your alter with things you love, placing objects that you would “designate” or “gift” to the angel or spirit guide you are trying to call upon. Light a candle, choosing different colors to represent different angels works well.
- Find a time and place when and where you won’t be interrupted. Turn off the phone or ringer on your telephone and make sure that you will not be disturbed for the length of time you plan to practice.
- Wear comfortable clothes and remove your shoes. It is common during blessings and certain spiritual rituals to be barefoot during the time of your “blessing” or during meditation. The belief is that it allows for the prana or universal energies to flow through you and to prevent any energy from becoming blocked or stuck.
- It helps to be specific about what type of Spiritguides or Angels you are invoking. Its like going to a dentist to fix your teeth and goind to a general practitioner when you have a cold, and going to a specialist when you have a more specific health issue. Its the same when calling upon one of your Spirit Team members!
- Hold the intention and desire to attract in only those spirit beings that provide guidance, love, and higher teachings. You can say, “I now invite in all of my loving and wise, spirit guides and angels to be with me now.”
- Do this the same time everyday. Similar to setting an appointment and showing up, if you show up so will they!
- If you begin communicating with any energy that feels negative, that gives you unreliable advice or information that is ego based or just doesnt feel go or sound “right” ~ you want to be very clear and state your intentions by saying, “If there are any energies that are negative or of a low energy you are not welcome and not allowed to communicate or share any of your energy. Go back to where you came from or go to the Divines Loving White Light! I state once again that the only energies, spirits and angelic beings welcome to communicate and to give me messages and guidance now are those of the highest power and highest good! And so it is!”
- If there is something specific that you need assistance, guidance or healing with ~ Be clear in your intention.
The more specific you are when asking for guidance in a particular area of your life, the more that your guides and angels can assist you. Your intention will set the tone for this relationship. When your purpose is clear that you want to communicate, spirit will automatically be aware of this, and it will enable them to connect with you more effectively. Your mind-set creates an opening for them to reach you. - Breathing – One of the most important steps! When you’re ready, take a deep breath in, breath in through your nose, as you are breathing in fill your lungs, your diaphram, and your belly, do this to the count of four (4), hold your breath for the count of two (2), then breathe out through the mouth (making an audible sighing sound of “Aaaahhhhh” on the out breath), relax when you release your breath slowly.
Do this about three or four times, by the third or fourth breath imagine a white bright light forming into a ball in your solar plexus chakra, the energy center that is above your belly button and about two inches below your sternum. Most contact happens from the solar plexus or heart chakra, either one is fine. It is up to you and which one feels the most comfortable to you at that time.
Enjoy! You may want to take notes when you have finished so you won’t forget any important messages that you were given by spirit and your angels!
