It’s 3 o’clock in the morning and now you’re wide awake, thoughts bouncing around in your mind. Tomorrow’s to-do list is nagging you. Worries spring up like weeds in the soggy field of your brain. Sound familiar?
My latest meditation was created for those wee hours of the morning when the dawn’s early light brings a sense of dread. Relax your body, mind, and spirit with this trip to a tropical island where the sea and stars lull you back to restful sleep.
Several weeks ago, Spirit nudged me to create a meditation for people dealing with grief. At the time, I wondered if it was a portent for things to come. Of course, grief is part of the human experience. Loving deeply delivers greatest joy, but also greatest loss when a loved one dies. At this point in life, I am no stranger to grief. I’ve walked the path of the “Valley of the Shadow of Death,” as described in Psalm 23, most memorably when my mother died, and later, my husband. Both greatly loved, both greatly missed.
For me, grief is something to acknowledge and experience. It’s a time to slow down and allow feeling to bubble up and flow out, sometimes in tears, sometimes in closet cleaning or long, long walks. The relationship mourned is not really over, but transformed. With my mother, I ultimately came to feel how much of her lives on in me–my style, my voice pattern, my love for music and family, my ready smile. Gratitude replaced grief.
Grief for my husband took a different route, as it seems we maintain a relationship of sorts as he has simply gone from physical to non-physical. We aren’t in a day-to-day marriage any longer. No more, “what do you want to eat? What should we do tonight?” But rather, he is still around when I really need him, but most of the time now, we’re leading our post-marriage lives. Me, still on planet earth, he in another dimension. But when I am in a crisis, he makes his presence known, usually through music or the sudden appearance of coins.
Two weeks ago, grief came calling to my family as my older daughter, Sara lost her father-in-law, Gary. He’d gone into sudden decline, entered the hospital to hopefully get stronger, but instead, passed away. I’d been following the unfolding drama through long-distance communications with Sara. The afternoon Gary was breathing his last breaths, I found a shiny penny sitting on top of my car. How strange, I thought. How did that get there?
A couple hours later, I received the message that Gary had passed. Though not surprised, I still felt the reverberating shock wave of emotion of the family gathered around his bed. Gary had been a strong, much beloved center of his family. Greatly loved, now to be greatly missed.
When I returned to my car, a bright shiny dime sat in the passenger’s seat. The penny, the dime. Now I got it. My husband makes his presence known when I need him….Truly, love never dies.
The Relief from Grief Meditation is my humble offering for those dealing with the pangs of loss. Hopefully, those who listen will feel their spirits lifted and find their way ever so steadily to joy and appreciation for the love they have known.
1983 was a personally difficult year. On January 3, our first home was destroyed by fire. Though my husband, two small daughters, and I were unharmed, the turmoil and aftermath were challenging, to say the least. In the spring, Nana, my vivacious maternal grandmother died after a long battle with cancer. Then, in summer, my mother’s stomach problems were revealed to be cancer also. Mom’s illness and diagnosis pulled me down. A dark cloud hovered over me wherever I went. In other words, I was an anxious, worried hot mess.
With all those slings and arrows of misfortune coming my way, I began reading the Bible, praying, and simply begging for heavenly help. In fall of that year, in the quiet of my bedroom, the presence of the Christ Spirit overwhelmed me. It was my personal “come to Jesus” moment. Such experiences are truly indescribable. My body filled with liquid love. I met an invisible, but very real, being of high intelligence, kindness, and protection. A phrase of prayer language repeated over and over in my mind. I eventually uttered the strange non-English phrase into the room. To this day, I often center myself and open up to Spirit with that same phrase, some 40 years later.
My spiritual journey has taken many twists and turns in the ensuing years. I parted company several years ago from the dogmatic beliefs of most Christian denominations, though I was grateful to find kindred spirits at Unity Churches. My daily life is lived with a multidimensional awareness of the divinity all around. I feel deeply loved by many non-physical beings, especially the One we recognize as Jesus the Christ. I am well taken care of by Benevolent Beings.
In this holiday season, I felt led to create a Christmas Celebration Meditation. And I share it here with you. I hope it blesses you. With Love ~ Dana
Each morning I pray and send healing energy wherever the Spirit leads. A couple of months ago, I began receiving more detailed images of sacred geometry working with a person’s bioenergy field. Very interesting and powerful, the energy literally making me jump in my prayer chair. I knew I was supposed to develop a new meditation, but I realized I lacked the vocabulary to describe what I was seeing in my mind’s eye. Then in the course of a week, I “happened” to watch some shows that gave me some ideas to articulate the images. One especially mind-expanding show is Sacred Geometry: Spiritual Science, a Gaia Original Series, hosted by Robert J. Gilbert, Ph.D., the founder of the Vesica Institute for Holistic Studies. Gilbert is a very brainy guy and I’ll admit my intellect doesn’t always grasp his concepts, but my intuition is smarter than my mind. When I watched the shows on “torus energy,” I thought, “That’s it! That’s what I’ve been working with.”
Doing this work, I get the impression that the codes for our perfect health is information in our energetic fields. As healing energy workers, if we can access and activate these codes, the body will then begin to heal and regenerate healthy tissue. I call it Holographic Healing because what I see is like a superimposed holograph over and around the physical body and the DNA codes are always there to reproduce healthy cells. That’s my theory, anyway.
So, the day came when I felt my Spirit team and I were ready produce a Holographic Healing Meditation. The energy, the images and the words flowed. Frankly, the details of these meditations often surprise me. In this one, the listener is taken to the healing chamber of multidimensional physicians. You will hear the term Great White Brotherhood in the meditation, which refers to ascended master physicians in the Theosophy tradition. There are many benevolent spiritual entities working for the betterment of the planet. (We need all the help we can get, right?)
The Holographic Healing Meditation is now ready for anyone to experience, both at YouTube and here at Supernal Living on the HEALING MEDITATIONS page. I hope people find it healing and uplifting.
Unfolding world events can be maddening and disheartening. Is there any way to make a material difference when we see injustice, corruption, greed, hate and destruction? We can sign petitions, march in protest, send money to worthy organizations, post meaningful memes on Facebook and Instagram (one of my personal favorites.) But, it all feels pretty impotent.
My best hope as a person of faith and student of metaphysics, is the idea that group intention in higher dimensions can make a material difference in the way people think and behave. It’s the 100th Monkey Effect, based on a 1950’s study of monkeys living on Japanese islands. The practice of washing their sweet potatoes in a stream began with a youngster and spread by observation and repetition throughout one island. At some point, there appeared to be a critical mass of lifting the primates’ group consciousness across to other islands where those monkeys began washing their food.
A 2007 study by Marharesi University showed that a significant decrease in city crime can be observed when 1% of the population will engage in deliberate meditation to mitigate the local violence. Jesus spoke of the power of group prayer in Matthew 18:19-20 Again I say to you, if two of you agree on earth about anything they ask, it will be done for them by my Father in heaven. For where two or three are gathered in my name, there I am among them.
So, it seems to me as someone who has seen the power of prayer, meditation, healing energy, distance healing, etc., the best I can do on a global scale is join with others in heavenly realms and set an intention of Higher Consciousness. With that in mind, last year I asked for help in co-creating a meditation for world peace. There are no countries, cities, or nationalities named. No politics involved. No timeline. Mary Magdelene came to mind to represent the power of Divine Feminine. She leads a great gathering of souls in a universal meditation to send waves of energy for peace, unity and love.
You are invited to join in. Who knows, you might just be that 100th monkey.
For the past few years as time and inspiration allows, I’ve been creating meditations and healing energy transmissions, and loading them to YouTube. What began as fulfilling a request from a client/friend, has grown into a personally enjoyable exploration of visionary inspiration and a gift to the outside world. Admittedly, I haven’t worked on raising my SEO scores or cared about marketing my “brand.” I’ve simply been following intuitive guidance to offer healing meditations to a troubled world.
While I haven’t monetized my videos, they are increasingly used as revenue vehicles for YouTube. I understand they need to make money, however, when commercials loudly interrupt meditations, they destroy the listener’s concentration. So, I am in the process of making them available here at Supernal Living. The first group is up as a menu item calledHealing Meditations. I am also seeking other on-line venues to make them available without commercial interruptions.
I’ve recently settled into a new home in the Santa Cruz mountains and look forward to the upcoming months being a productive time with Spirit to produce new transmissions. I’m making the latest one available now.
Join me for a trip to the inner earth and take a dip in a very special pool. Turn off your devices, lie down and rejuvenate with the powerful energy at the Blue Crystal Healing Pool. Be sure and listen for the ethereal visitors lending their gifts to this healing transmission.
