Why Isn’t My Healing Practice Moving Forward?

This post answers questions for The Council from a reader named, Healer.

Healer: I know I’ve come into this lifetime as a healer, and I’ve been a healer many lifetimes before. I’ve felt this pull to do healing work for so many years. I’ve formally studied a few healing modalities, specifically Kinesiology, Flower Essences, Reiki, and Craniosacral Therapy. I’m now trying to get my healing business going, but I’m getting very few clients, less than one a month. The clients I’ve seen have seemed very happy with their session, yet they don’t return. Why is that?

Council: In this particular reality you wanted to learn about healing, but you wanted to teach healing, to come up with an idea of how to combine all of these practices and make one that works the best for you and then teach other people about it.

When these people come to see you, we would say the energy you put out there is important. And so it’s important for you to see your clients as being well, to tell them you see them well, and then to begin the healing work on them. Give them ideas on how to move forward and heal themselves. And that’s what you really wanted to do, to have them leave you with practices they can do and then come back and tell you about it.

It would be good for you to give some free sessions every now and then so people get to know you. But in those free sessions still be able to offer something that would help them, that they can do on their own. People more and more are learning now that they want to heal themselves. So that would be your successful part of it, to teach others how to help themselves, and they will return to you. But it was the teaching part that you were more interested in at this time.

And so eventually, if they have places you can go and give a class, make up your own way to heal, tell people what to look for and give them simple steps to do, people will begin to hear about you and then you’ll have more and more clients.

Healer: Can you please help me to understand why my healing practice isn’t moving forward?

Council: Because it’s not just the healing, it’s also the teaching. And when you concentrate with the intention of finding a way of putting everything you’ve learned together, mix it up and find simple little steps, even if it’s three or four steps you can tell each person something they can do to feel better, that would be the purpose you wanted this particular lifetime.

So you’ll have both. You’ll have clients that come for healings, and you’ll have people that come to learn what you have to offer.

Bob: Are you suggesting that the ones that are learning what you have to offer, be it in classes or one to one…

Council: Both.

Healer: Is this my true path?

Council: Yes it is.

Healer: Am I blocking it in some way, or perhaps I’m just not good at what I do?

Council: You are very good at what you do. But you want the confidence to come, the joy to come, when you put out with love how you feel about people, and the intention of not only wanting to help them heal, but the intention was to teach them how to heal themselves. That is your purpose.

What Profession Am I Supposed To Pursue?

This post answers questions for The Council from a reader named, Bluestar Child.

BC: I’m feeling like I’m in a tunnel and I don’t see the light at the end. I studied to work with immigrants, but there isn’t much work in this field and they don’t pay much for it. So I decided to change my course and study Veterinary Nursing, but after several years I’m stuck and I can’t finish it. I feel disappointed and very tired, and I don’t know whether to leave this path or not. I’d like to know if the real reason for this situation is because this job isn’t truly aligned with my life mission.

Council: So many people in your reality think there’s a mission, or there’s something they have to do, and that’s not true. If you don’t plan in spirit something that you want to do, or express, or learn about, you just come here to be, to have fun, to bump into other spirits that you’ll know. You’ll find things to do that just bring you interest and you learn about. There’s no mission that you must accomplish. You’re just here to be.

And sometimes you’ll try different things and nothing gives you joy. You’d never stay in a career that doesn’t give you joy. If it was pre-planned in spirit and you went to work at whatever it is, you’d find joy in it. If you don’t find joy in it, it wasn’t pre-planned. You don’t come to the Earth path to be miserable. You come here to find wonderful things to do, to recognize each other, to love each other, and spread the love around. That’s why you’re here.

BC: I feel lost. I don’t know if I’ve been wrong about everything. I’d like to know what would be the profession or activities I’m supposed to do, or for which I have more qualities in this incarnation.

Council: Okay, so as we’ve said, there’s no suppose, but because you’ve done it before, you wanted the freedom to have a lot of fun in this life. So you thought, perhaps it would be fun to work with very young children and teach them about life through games, and teach them to be creative.

And so you can study, if you like, how to work with children. You can become a teacher. You can become what we’d call a caretaker and just work for one family, and care for children and teach them. You can learn how to be an assistant in a daycare center. And so the thing was you wanted to teach through joy.

Bob: Do you have any comments on Bluestar Child pursuing the Veterinary Nursing career?

Council: Only pursue that if it gives you joy. You worked with animals in other lifetimes and loved it. Well maybe you don’t love it this time. And so we’d say, what you thought would be fun was to be an adult, but still able to be a child.

BC: I’d also like to know if I could earn enough money in Veterinary Nursing to emancipate myself from my family.

Council: Yes, of course. If you go into this seriously and find joy in it … make sure you find joy in it. When you feel the joy, you’ll get offers of where to work or what to do, and you’ll find a way to create the financial abundance that you want. It will come from loving what you do.

BC: I’m trying to manifest my future work using the Law of Attraction, but I no longer have a clear image of what I want to do, so it’s more difficult for me to do.

Council: And so you can always ask for signs. Let me see something walking down the street, let me see something in a movie, let me hear something. Show me something that would be of interest.

You can even work in a library among books and be the librarian that sits and reads stories to children once a day or twice a week. Anything with children, which is what you wanted, would be fun.

Listen to the entire 6-minute audio recording of our session with The Council (below) to hear all their guidance for Bluestar Child and the rest of us, and let us know what you feel about it. You can also ask The Council your own question by typing it into one of the Comment boxes that appear at the bottom of most of our blog pages.

What Was My Past Life In Lemuria Like?

This post answers questions for The Council from a reader named, A Lemurian.

Lemurian: I was told in a past life reading that I was a healer from Lemuria, and I’m a Pleiadian. I was also told I had a twin flame relationship with someone in the Pleiades who lives on Alcyone (a star in the Pleiades). I’d like to find out more about this and what my life was like in Lemuria.

Council: In Lemuria the teachings were about healing, oneness, honoring each other, and meditation. You learned how to use your mind to exist and to create what you needed. There was a peaceful atmosphere and there were always positive thoughts. There were times when you’d get together in groups and meditate in temples. And you taught little children about energy and thoughts.

The healing you performed wasn’t so much physical, but with your mind. When you experienced things that were upsetting or things that caused you to be anxious, you knew in that life how to change this, what to meditate on, and what part of the body to focus on. That’s the healing you did in Lemuria.

Lemurian: What was my family like in Lemuria?

Council: Everyone was family in Lemuria. That’s how they existed. Everyone worked together. Everyone learned from each other and cared for each other. There was the experience of unity and oneness. Have you created that here with your family? With your friends? In Lemuria that brought you great joy.

Coming in at this time in your current lifetime, because of what’s going on, in spirit you chose to come here now and to learn again how to focus, how to be positive, and how to be one with your family and friends.

We suggest that in your meditations or quiet time, you go with the elements of nature. That would feel familiar to you. Go within your heart and find that peaceful feeling that you had in Lemuria. It’s there. When you find it and you experience that oneness, that feeling of love for everyone that you’ve created in your life, you wanted to share that feeling and show it, not so much in what you say, but in how you treat yourself and others.

Lemurian: Can I meet my twin flame in my next lifetime, and what was he like?

Council: Your twin flame can be met in your next lifetime if that’s what you want. And because you’re in the midst of creating it, you’ll pick the way you meet, how important that person is in your life, if that person stays with you, or if that person comes into your life only for a while. Will this person turn out to be a parent or a teacher, or a friend? You’ll create that.

You can begin now by thinking about how you’ll want the relationship to be. With your thoughts, see how your meeting will be and live it now. Go into those thoughts and experience them and feel them as if you’re living them now, and you’ll draw them to you.

But wanting to meet this twin soul will come about if, when you create that life, you want that to be. You may want that now instead of in the next life. It’s all up to you.

Lemurian: Can The Council give me any information regarding this twin flame?

Council: Take that feeling of being positive, and no matter what you face and what you experience, when you focus on these feelings, you’ll bring them to you now and your life will improve. The feelings within you will exist with more happiness with what you create. Take all of that and use it in this lifetime. And when others see your attitude becoming gentle and having an acceptance of everything that happens, that’s how you’ll teach others in your current lifetime.

We send you all blessings, and all the wonderful thoughts that would help you, and the positive thoughts and the feelings that come with them. We send you the love that’s within you that you can experience at any time when you focus on your heart and ask for signs of who you really are. And when you do this, you’ll experience more joy and more love in your life.

You can also ask The Council your own question by typing it into one of the Comment boxes that appear at the bottom of most of our blog pages.

How Can I Overcome My Bulimia?

This post answers questions for The Council from a reader named, Chris, who says: Throughout my life I’ve overcome a number of obsessive-compulsive disorders and addictive behaviors including alcoholism. However, after 34 years (I’m now 46) I still suffer from bulimia. I’ve been in four in-patient centers and worked with several therapists and counselors and I can’t figure out how to move beyond this. I understand all about eating disorders, I have significant conscious self-awareness, I’ve worked with an energy healer, and I’m at a loss for how to rid myself of this problem. Any insight, ideas, or guidance would be helpful.

The Council says what you planned before incarnating was simple, but when you arrive on the Earth path it doesn’t seem so simple. It’s not like a specific past life is influencing what you chose. What you wanted to do in some form was teach.

You planned in spirit to become “trapped” in different disorders and you wanted to go through them. The way you’d get out of them was to think of every challenge you faced. What did you think while you were in each disorder? What did it feel like? But most important, what did you learn?

As an alcoholic, or bulimic, or any negative pattern you felt trapped in, you wanted to learn what it felt like to be in each situation. Go back in time, think of everything you went through, and ask yourself what you learned when you were an alcoholic and wait for some ideas to come to you.  Then ask what else you learned. It’s like peeling an onion. What did you learn? What else did you learn? And then how did you change the pattern?

What will help you complete these challenges you set up is to learn from each situation and then to tell people about them. This is how you wanted to teach. You wanted to go through each challenge, feel what it was like, and find out what you learned. What kept you in each pattern and what helped you get out of it? As you focus on still being bulimic (or any other challenge you bring into your life), when you focus on what you’re feeling and what you learned, you’ll complete the challenge.

This will help you learn how to face your challenges. The most important thing to ask is what it felt like being in it? What did you learn from it? How did you handle the challenge emotionally and physically? And how did you get out of it? All this information is what you planned in spirit to put together in a way to help others come through their own challenges.

What’s going on in your life concerning your bulimia? Why are you in it? What pushes the button that makes you bulimic? What does it feel like? Is it a control issue? Does it bring up feelings of being weak or abandoned? It’s up to you to search what goes on within you physically, emotionally, mentally, and put this information together. When you look at the other challenges you had and you see why you went into them, what was going on for you? How did you get out of the challenge? You’ll find the pattern you’re looking for and it will help with your bulimia.

Your bulimia isn’t any different than your alcoholism or any of your other challenges. Go back into these issues and see how it felt. What got you into this challenge and how did you come out of it? What did you learn from this challenge? Will the way you came out help others? This is what you planned in spirit: to go through each challenge, to have the experience, the feeling, the thoughts, the emotions, and then to change the challenge by getting out of it. And then you wanted to help others with your knowledge. This is exactly what’s happening. There will be a similar pattern that you’ll find as you go through each challenge you set up and it will help with overcoming your bulimia.

Who Am I and Where Am I From?

This post answers questions for The Council from a reader named, Donna, who asks, who am I and where am I from?

The Council says you’ve come from the star system, Pleiades, and many like you who are here from this star system don’t know it.

Pleiadians are here to teach and guide other people to evolve, they have a peaceful nature, and their are millions of them on Earth.

The  careers of all of Pleiadians on Earth are in the healing fields, counseling, and people working with energy. They can heal you by the way they talk to you, by the guidance they give you, and by the touch of their hand. Pleiadians were also guides to people in Atlantis and Lemuria.

Pleiadians easily connect with other people, animals, and plants. This is part of their gift because they’re evolved. They need to be around nature and don’t like to be in big groups. They are more quiet and like to deal with people one on one. Many Pleiadians are disappointed because they can’t seem to do what they intended in their physical bodies.

The reason Donna has chosen to incarnate on Earth at this time is to help the people around her. Her interest in the Pleiadians brings her closer to the calm, healing energy and the light she’s here to share with others, even if it doesn’t wake her up to her mission in this lifetime. This is a beautiful purpose for being here and if she hasn’t done this yet, this will strike a chord within her, and she’ll start looking at and connecting with people, animals, and plants differently.

Donna mentions that her energy healer says she’s not from Pleiades and The Council laughs and asks her to choose which way she wants to believe. And The Council adds that it’s okay whether or not she believes them.

Find the softness, the love,  and the light within you and shine it on other people. You teach other people to be giving and loving by the way you speak and act. This is the purpose of all Pleiadians. You’re here to guide us, help us evolve and feel peaceful, and help us connect with our higher energy.

You’re also here to take care of yourself. And as you do this, you’ll find others who wish to take care of themselves and are looking for answers. The more you connect to this – if it hasn’t happened already – you’ll find more and more people coming to you for guidance and help.

It’s good to read about the Pleiadians and their work on this planet, as well as the Sirians, Arcturians, and people from other star systems who have come to Earth. Read about Atlantis and Lemuria and how the people from the Pleiades guided and taught the people in these times. The book, Starseed Transmissions, by Ken Carey will be helpful. As you read, your knowledge will increase and you’ll find yourself on a path that helps and enlightens others.

The Council closes by wishing joy to everyone on their journeys. And they ask us to always search for more questions and answers to help us grow and bring us along on our path, and help us bring the love that’s in spirit into the Earth path, which is the purpose for all of us.

Listen to the entire 10-minute audio recording of our session with The Council (below) to hear all their guidance for Donna and the rest of us, and let us know what you feel about it.

How Can I Improve My Relationship with My Son and His Anger?

This post answers questions for The Council from an anonymous reader who asks how she can improve her relationship with her 5-year old son who’s quick to anger. Anonymous says she tries to meet her son’s anger with patience and love, but she’s burning out.

The Council says this is a difficult journey for Anonymous. The soul of her son planned to come in with a lot of anger and have this anger most of his life. The meanness and violence he can show is something that’s been agreed to in spirit by the people he comes in contact with. And her son chose to be this way to teach the people around him how to show gentleness and kindness when they’re affected by someone like him.

The Council recommends spending a lot of one on one time with her son.

Her son has chosen music to make him feel better and The Council recommends she play music for him, particularly classical music like Beethoven and particularly at night before bed, and have him create movement to this music. This should help him deal with his anger. And The Council advises trying to keep him in small groups rather than larger ones.

Learn to be kind and gentle with your son’s behavior, but teach him what’s acceptable behavior and always show that you’re loving him. You may not approve of his actions or words, but inside there’s a very brave soul that wants to be accepted and also taught how to be.

The Council repeats that her son’s behavior was agreed to in spirit and asks her not to become upset with him. He wants to learn about frustration and not being understood, and then being understood by people who are capable of teaching him.

Part of her son’s brain will have a difficult time understanding what he’s being taught because he’ll be overcome with feelings of frustration. When this happens she must remember this is her lesson also and she must learn how to handle his feelings. This is a new experience for her that was also agreed to in spirit.

The Council recommends Anonymous meditate and find time for herself. They add that counseling for her to help deal with her son may be necessary. And they also recommend reading books on past lives to learn about difficult lessons and challenges . This lesson touches everyone in the family because everyone wanted to bring love into this reality no matter how difficult it was.

Anonymous asks what she and her son are here to teach each other in this lifetime? The Council says her son is confused and this will bring on outbursts and behavior that’s unacceptable. When his behavior isn’t acceptable, it’s good for whoever’s with him to talk about this with him and how there are more acceptable ways of handling his frustration rather than with outbursts or being mean. Explain, in very short sentences, how your son can change his behavior.

Anonymous says she’s begun to think of her son as mean, and even though she realizes this is unfair and unhelpful, it’s difficult for her to find evidence to the contrary. The Council says it’s not horrible that Anonymous notices her son is mean. This is exactly what she is supposed to be doing. When this happens, talk to your son about his behavior and teach him more desirable ways to get what he wants. This is what’s needed.

The Council suggests hand holding and touch will become important to her son. Go slowly. As you take the time, you’ll see progress. It’s an important lesson for everyone around your son to become kinder and more understanding. As this occurs you’ll begin to see positive changes because everyone that volunteered for this lesson will be learning.

In closing The Council encouraged us to keep up our good work, to which Bob replied that we’ll try. The Council laughed and quoted a great spiritual teacher (Yoda from the Star Wars movies) who says, “There is no try, there is only do.” And they add they will help us do.

Listen to our entire 10-minute session with The Council (below) to hear all their guidance for Anonymous and the rest of us on ways to help deal with a child’s anger, and let us know how you feel about it.

Why Someone Would Choose to be Born with a Cognitive Disability

This post answers Pakt’s question for The Council about why someone would choose to be born with a cognitive disability. She works in a classroom with students who have these disabilities and read that people with Down Syndrome committed suicide in another lifetime.

The Council says people can choose a cognitive disability just for the experience and to understand what this feels like. In another lifetime if someone they knew had this disability and they didn’t show understanding and love, perhaps they’d choose to experience it in this lifetime and to see if they can bring love into it.

And sometimes people will choose a cognitive disability to teach the people around them about this disability. They do not choose to experience a cognitive disability because they’ve committed suicide in another lifetime.

Pakt says she always thought people choose to experience a cognitive disability so the rest of us can learn from these people as opposed to these people learning a lesson. The Council says these people with disabilities also learn. When we choose different experiences, whether they are happy ones or challenging ones, we also choose the people that will go through this with us because of what they want to learn and we can help them. But The Council says we always want to learn from having the experience of a cognitive difficulty or some other difficulty. There is a learning on everyone’s part.

Listen to this brief 2-minute recording of our session with The Council to hear all their guidance for Pakt and the rest of us on why someone would choose to experience a cognitive difficulty in this lifetime, and let us know how you feel about it.

Do Extra-Terrestrial Beings Live in Our Solar System?

This post is inspired by questions from a reader named, Kristi, who asks if aliens are real (as in extra-terrestrial beings living in our solar system) and she asks if The Council can tell her about them.

The Council says of course aliens or extra-terrestrial beings are real and some end up here on Earth to learn and some to teach. They are not here to harm us. It’s known that aliens are here, but this is kept very quiet.

Bob asked The Council how we would know when we came across an alien and The Council said many times we wouldn’t know. You usually can’t tell by the way they look because they assume a human form, but you’d feel a difference in their energy. You perceive things you never perceived before when you’re in their presence. They are here to learn from us, to teach us, and to add love to every situation.

Bob asked if Kristi has come in contact with any aliens in this lifetime and The Council said when she was a baby there were two aliens who were her neighbors briefly and teachers that were there to observe. These two aliens had contact with Kristi in another lifetime and there was a shared desire to be allowed to come into this lifetime and observe a child in this reality.

The Council says when we dream about aliens they can assume non-human form, but The Council repeats that when aliens come into our human reality they assume a human form. The Council says some aliens leave evidence that can be found that extra-terrestrials have been here so we can learn there is more than the human form. Crop circles are an example of this.

Listen to our entire 13-minute session with The Council (below) to hear all their guidance for Kristi and the rest of us, and let us know how you feel about it.
