It’s time to meet your own guides. It’s time to begin a relaŽtionship that will enhance the rest of your life. This may seem like a moment that deserves fanfare and ritual. But, in fact, it’s very much like saying hello to an old friend. In fact, your guides are eager for you to “pick up the phone” and say hello. And who better to lead you through this simple process than Ella? It is not difficult to contact your spiritual guidance. In fact, there is probably not a thing that’s easier and more natural other than breathing and feeling the beat of your heart. Unlike human communication, which seems to require some kind of device to span what appears to be distance, there is neither time nor distance involved in your communication with your guides, and no devices are necessary. This is why it seems so unnatural to you, because you have been trained to need tools—a phone that you can pick up, a computer that allows you to see one another. But mental communication—becoming aware of the connections between our minds and yours—requires nothing but your willingness to sit still for a moment and ask. When you do this, you will find that the world you thought was real has new contours and shape. You’ll find that it’s without boundŽaries, and that the veil you never even knew existed because you didn’t think about us before simply disappears into the dust and is left behind. Think of it this way. When you are around a baby, the infant canŽnot communicate with language, but you still talk to one another, do you not? You and your animal companions communicate even though you are not fluent in one another’s languages. And if a stranger from another planet suddenly appeared on your doorstep, you would find a way to create understanding, would you not? Let me assure you that talking with your guides is easier than all of these examples. The only reason it may seem daunting or illogical or impossible is because we are not in three-dimensional form, and your senses are blocking your ability to see beyond. But willingness is all it takes to supersede these limitations. You cannot underestimate the power of willingness in your life—not just in communication with us, but in every aspect of what you want to create. This is what we’d like you to do. Sit quietly and take several deep breaths. Close your eyes. Feel yourself becoming comfortable and relaxed. If there is any fear in your body, ask for those fear-based thoughts to be healed. Now see in your mind’s eye an invitation. Engraved, handwritten, it can look however you want, but see it clearly. It is an invitation to your guides, stating that you want to communicate with them, invitŽing them to be part of your life. Bear in mind that they already are attending, but your invitation is a statement to you that you want to feel their presence. Now see yourself sending that invitation out into the universe, where it will be directed to your guides. Send it out with confidence that it will be received and answered. Then sit back and wait for the answer to come. Be open to it, in whatever form. Pay attention. When your ego tries to tell you this is silly and you should go make a sandwich or throw in a load of launŽdry, ask for those fears to be healed and stay right where you are. Simple, no? Once you have established this initial communication, build it daily. Do not neglect it. Your guides like to be in conscious contact often and will be there whenever you address us. As Ella said, it’s that simple. I’ve used this brief visualizaŽtion with individuals and groups, and it works even for people who are highly skeptical at first. For Pam, a student in one of my A Course in Miracles classes, this visualization had completely unexpected results. She was wary of spirit guides to begin with, but she was willing to go along when I walked the group through this visualizaŽtion, helping them relax and then instructing them to send an invitation. She sat with her eyes closed and followed the instructions. As she relaxed more deeply, she found herself aware of three shadows around her—two on her right and one on her left— and began thinking that something might happen after all. And then, out of the blue, she heard her brother laugh. He had passed away eight years before, but his laugh was unmistakable to her. He had a specific message for her that night about someone important to her, and she trusted his words. “Here he was,” she said, “still poking fun, still teasing, still taking care of me in his own way.” A few weeks later, she had the chance to work with a medium, who confirmed that her brother had been with her. He also said she had two other spirits that weren’t coming forward. “The main reason for their unwillingness to do so,” he said, “is because you have not attempted to contact them on your own. You must ask to do so before they will agree to speak to me on your behalf.” Since then, she has communicated with those two spirits, who have brought healing and understanding to her during a challenging time. “I’m becoming a believer,” Pam says. “Each of us has spiriŽtual connections should we wish to call upon them and take the chance to believe in them. I’m learning about myself and others that I love, and I have every trust that we’re not alone.” Reprinted with permission from Hampton Roads Publishing Let Your Spirit Guides Speak Đ 2016 by Debra Landwehr Englie is available wherever books are sold, directly from the publisher at 1-800-423-7087 or at www.redwheelweiser.com. |
