Finding Balance and Comfort in the Process of Awakening


I am currently offering readings and etheric healing sessions especially for those of you who have begun to manifest difficult lightbody symptoms and want to manage these symptoms and changes in your bodies through a holistic integration and healing process.
This body of work combines spirit guided healing with tachyon gridding. Tachyon grids unify all frequencies through sacred geometry and the zero point creation matrix. This tool, in concert with my ability as a clear channel for healing energies and information, offers a unique opportunity to ease some of the anxieties around the rapid evolutionary processes many of you are experiencing. This service is offered on my website.

All of you who are currently experiencing the Awakening and/or Ascension process intuitively know that any discomfort, and side effect symptoms are simply catalysts to your remembering of the truth of who you are and why you are here, now. My intention is to assist you in developing a framework which will align your heart and mind to your spiritual comprehension of your multi-dimensionality, and allow you to work through and clear these symptoms with greater ease.

My function is to hold the space with the highest intention of healing, support and surrender to what shows up as the clearest expression from Your Highest Self. I will act as a spiritual guide to bring clarity to the aspect of your soul purpose and what is being moved through in your evolution process. I cannot predict all that will unfold within the session or define the topics of each session until I explore them with you during our time together. But I do know, beyond any doubt, that I will be able to channel the information and energetic frequencies your higher self chooses to assist your mastery of your challenges at hand, and ease you through the transformation which is causing your discomfort.

It is my intention that you may experience the deep peace and great joy of life in the higher realms, even as your Ascension Process unfolds.

This package includes a 30-minute interactive session by telephone immediately followed by a healing transmission, and a follow-up integration call a few days later. You should allow at least 90 minutes on the day of your appointment, with about 10 minutes prior to the call set aside for meditation and so I may make a connection with you, about 30 minutes for conversation, and the remainder of the time relaxing and receiving the transmissions.

Our follow up conversation by telephone (approx. 48 - 72 hours later, and no earlier) will be 10 - 15 minutes in duration.  Discussion, since it is an intellectual activity, often has the effect of diluting the power of spiritual healing. Sometimes, by talking about things we define and limit what is actually non-linear and limitless! I believe that it is necessary to be in the mystery for a while... and to respect that which has unfolded in the realm of Spirit and give the process a chance to manifest miracles in the physical without our mental and emotional preconceptions altering the natural courses.

I think that to be spiritually centered in the process of Ascension  is also to have a holy respect for the great mysteries of life — the yearning in our souls to experience love in its many forms, the strange beauty of the natural world, the complexity of our inner selves, the unfathomable creativity of Source.

Just as the wisdom traditions have challenged us to live within the grace of unknowing, our Creator has provided us with the ability to tap into comfort through faith, and finally, now, through direct communication. We are awakening to our own Divinity and Light, Deep Peace and Great Joy.

May you be blessed!

Birthing World Change

Today, our brothers and sisters are in Cairo protesting the regime of President Hosni Mubarak who has ruled for nearly 30 years. Egypt has been in a state of emergency since 1967, which means its government has the power to censor its public, detain without reason, and violate constitutional rights. Massive unemployment, high food prices, and regime corruption have resulted in a revolution. And the size of the movement, its range throughout the country, and general, cross-religious and class support, seem to suggest that a dramatic change in the way Egypt is governed will be birthed as a result.

Massive unemployment, high food prices, and corruption are not unique to Egypt. Revolution is in the air we all breathe.

World change is on the minds and in the hearts of most of humanity. And never before have human beings been more interconnected. Communications technology has created a global community, where every person may become aware of the whole of humanity. We are all One, like never before in human history. Our interdependence and interconnectedness reveals itself even as world events appear to be spiraling into ever greater manifestations of negativity.

Many of us have who worked to bring change to the world with awakened consciousness, positive actions and intentions, compassion and service are more than frustrated by the apparent lack of effect of our good works. Manifestations of intolerance, judgement and oppression, exactly the opposite of the more peaceful, spiritual world that many of us are seeking to create, create extreme imbalances in humanity.

But, it is no longer possible for anyone to shut out the reality of the large human family of which we are all a part. You have anchored that truth. Philosophies and religions that attempt to make another group of people the enemy are now being exposed for the fear and suffering they perpetuate. You have brought the possibility of personal communion with the Divine into manifestation. And in our world where far too many lack basic resources for survival, and a relatively small number of people have an overabundance of resources, you have begun to play with the universal laws of abundance, love, and light to bring about balance.

Yes, our collective spiritual healing unfolds, and more and more are awakening to the knowledge that where one part of our human family suffers at the expense of another, everyone suffers. This is your truth. This awakening of consciousness, though not yet fully manifested, is birthing. Your child is coming. The lightworkers and wayshowers who have anchored the intention to bring in the change which has been prophesied across time in diverse cultures and religions must not tire yet. It's almost time to push.

Your expanded consciousness, awareness, and ability to hold the higher frequencies on the Earth plane have never been more important. Each one of us is essential part of the evolution of humanity's consciousness. Breathe.

There is far more happening in Cairo today than meets the eye. Our multi-dimensional universal family gathers close to support mankind. The veils between worlds are very thin. With just a tiny shift in our frequencies we will all tune into their broadcasts, gather the knowledge of those who see us from the higher planes, and use that knowledge as power to affect world change. As lightworkers we must open to that wisdom and set our daily intentions and actions to impact on the world around us for the highest good. Breathe.

Reform. Re-form. The potential for real change is here, now.  Over the past decades we have worked for it, prayed for it. Massive meltdowns are underway, and it is important to stay in your center, grounded in compassion and joyfully in service as the process unfolds. Please do not be frustrated by the manifestations of intolerance, judgement and oppression. Breathe.

The peaceful, spiritual world that you seek to create is birthing. These are the labor pains. Breathe through them.

May you be blessed!

Once Upon a Time... Oshun


In 1996, as part of my Reiki Master candidacy, I set up
Reiki programs with several nursing homes in the area.
This was unheard of at the time. Through a community
outreach grant and the activities directors at a few of
the more prestigious places, I was able to send Reiki
practioners into the facilities to give Reiki to residents
free of charge. I had all kinds of documented studies on relaxation and pain relief which I presented to boards of directors, nurses, and MD’s.

I was also able, through Hospice, to attend transitions and provide services ‘til the end if requested. It was all very groundbreaking and heady stuff, and I felt that I was doing important work
bringing alternative and natural care to venues where mainstream medicine and ho-hum care was the norm.

There were newspaper articles about my work, workshops to give, CEUs for nursing staff, and my mastership was assured. I was really something! I could see my future. I had business
cards printed, ordered really nice state-of-the-art body work tables and was ready to set up a practice and hire the office help! So I thought...

One of my first clients was an elderly woman from the Dominican Rebublic ( I think). She did not know how old she was, although I would guess that she was in her late 90’s. She had come to the US as a teen and worked for several generations for a wealthy family from New
York City who summered here in Wolfeboro, the oldest summer resort in America. She loved it here on the lake. And so it was here that she was resting.

Nanny, as she was known, had cared for this family and their children, and now those children, in gratitude and love had made sure she would spend the rest of her life with the best care money could buy. She was a resident in the best nursing home here, with water views, and fine china, and good art in the dining room. Her bed linens were not issued by the laundry service, they were very fine, a European duvet was covered in embroidered eyelet lace. The exquisite antique furnishings in her room were obviously brought in from the lake house. And every week, I noticed a magnificent arrangement of fresh flowers by the window. Hotel lobby size, no carnations.

The smiling faces of generations of tanned, blue-eyed blond children filled the room in silver frames. Some on horses, some with tennis rackets, in caps and gowns, and some, in wedding gowns, all with Nanny.

She had her hair done every week, and she wore matching Laura Ashley gowns and robes and wore an expensive gold watch, little diamonds in her ears. This was no one’s servant, this was someone’s beloved mother. This was a queen. Now I realize her room and her body, a temple to the Goddess, but how could I have known then? Even they who built it, and maintained it, did not know.

Several strokes had left Nanny with garbled speech and little mobility. She did not mix with the other residents nor did she take part in activities. And although her mind was still pretty sharp, her frail body was withering, and she waited for the spirits of ancestors of her Dominican Republic family to come for her and finally bring her home. I never met her New York family, although I suppose in the end they came for her too.

Nanny did not want the clergy to visit nor did she want the dog lady to bring in the great golden retriever who lavished affection on the residents. She did, however, want an appointment to see the healer.

And that was me.

In those days I was very professional. I would play whale songs and flutes on my little portable CD player and focus on hand positions, carefully listening with my hands. I never brought crystals with me. Never spoke of spirit guides. I was careful not to come across too witchy or new-age. I was after federal grant money, after all.

Nanny was just bones in her bed to the untrained eye, but my hands sensed amazing life force contained in that little body. It was very different energy from any other of the nursing home residents which usually felt very flat, depressed or depleted. I was awestruck at her vibrancy! At
the end of our first session she smiled and said, “thank you Oshun.”
“Susan,” I said.
“Oshun.”

Of course, I assumed (because of her disability or English as her second language) could not
say Susan and what did I care? She was peaceful, not in any pain and she enjoyed our time together. She wanted me to come back. My ego was gratified. I kept notes, documenting it all for an eventual grant.

Each time, I tried to tell her that my name was Susan (soon to be famous Susan, friend of Deepak Chopra and Bill Moyer, right!) And each time I came to give her Reiki treatments she thanked Oshun. Susan. Oshun. Susan. Oshun.

I came to see that her vibrancy was very heart centerd. It was her love force. It was the children she cared for, the beauty of the lake that she loved. Her gratitude for being loved, for having loved. Her life force was her love force. I wrote that down. I was profound!

Toward the end of her life she seemed to gain a little strength, and one day she reached out and took my hand. “Oshun,” she said and I felt a wave of energy shoot through me. Try as I might I could not flow anything to her. Some Reiki Master.

She wanted me to return though and I did but I was beginning to doubt my abilities.

From that day forth I was on the receiving end with Nanny, and luckily I was just wise enough, and just open enough to finally accept it without guilt or judgement. I changed. I remembered.

Why my conditioning and discipline as a Reiki Master Candidate didn’t get in the way remains a mystery. But I allowed the mystery to unfold and Nanny continued to thank Oshun. Then one day, while browsing thru a book about Tarot card decks at Barnes and Noble I discovered that Oshun was a Goddess!

I was able to tell Nanny that I had discovered Oshun and that I understood what she was trying
to tell me. I studied. It was all very different, yet so familiar. I told her about Venus, Istar, Kali. Yemayacame to me in dreams. Oya, Oshun. I began to understand.

Oshun’s holy day is September 11. I told Nanny that was my birthday. She nodded, she knew. She told me pieces of the stories of her remembering. I told her there were similar stories in the Hopi tradition, Zen wisdom tales, and Bilblical parables. She knew. I knew.

She would take my hand and give me her gift. The transmissions were always the same, very distinct energy, although they lasted only a few seconds. An hour long Reiki session seemed ridiculous, infantile, when this energy could be passed in an instant. I began to question everything I knew about spiritual and mind/body healing modalities, including Reiki. It was apparent that I would become a Master of Nothing but Questions.

One day I asked her how she did that. Her answer was simple. “Love you.”

Nanny passed with her hand in mine. I felt her go in a flash of love. She simply became love. In one instant, like light, she was only love. I will never fear death because Nanny showed me how to do it. She was simply restored.

But she gave me lots to fear and and lots to get over in life. She set me upon a path where I confronted my ideas of what a Master is and is not. What a healer is. What spirituality can be. What life is for. What threads connect us all.

Search, abandon. God, Goddess. Create, dissolve. Intellectualize, forget. Finally, all that was left
was the power of love. And the Spirit of Oshun.

Much of this story remains untold because there is no language suitable for miracles. I hold much experience sacred in silence where it belongs. Nanny is one of my greatest teachers, and I have been blessed with some profound ones. Nanny was Priestess, Healer, Teacher, Friend.

I share this story primarily because I want you to keep your heart open, especially when you think you are on the path, doing the do, walking the talk. When you think you are it.
That’s when you need to get ready to re-evaluate in a big way.

Whenever you interact with anyone, remember, by design, each one of us has a profound gift to give another just at the right, life-altering moment. I might have become just another Reiki Master with a massage therapist and accupuncturist sharing space in a strip mall if I had not met Nanny. That's what I wanted to be! That was my highest calling, a dream come true! I never would have become an ebay psychic or swam naked with dolphins and study with Taino elders, or create Oshun Spirit Fragrance Oil, or...

And, I might have even feared an ancient tradition or two, locked in judgement and a false sense of superiority, if I had not embraced the appearance of Oshun in my life.

Like I said, I was just barely wise enough to not let ego and emotion get in the way of a life altering experience. Nanny joyfully possesed Oshun’s dancing spirit, I saw her fully present in the last breath of a tiny, crippled woman. I saw the Goddess in her, I know.

So, instead of becoming a Master I became a student.
Oh, I had the certificate, but it was more of a birth certificate than anything else. The Goddess had taken my hand, literally. She had awakened me to the power of love.

In the hours I sat with Nanny, gazing out her big picture window at the lake, looking at her framed photographs, smelling her roses and lillies, smoothing her beautifully coiffed hair, I also sat with Oshun. With beauty. With harmony. With the love emotion of the initiated. With the knowledge that love is the only question, the only answer, the only prayer.

May you be blessed!

Eating for enlightenment


Much has been written about the health benefits of a vegetarian diet from which dead and devitalized substances have been eliminated. Ecological principles are also cited as a prime consideration for restructuring our diets to better serve the fragile ecosystems of the Earth and our own bodies.

But what about the spiritual impact of eating a diet in accordance with the laws of the Universe?

Gabriel Cousens, M.D. goes into great detail in his book, Spiritual Nutrition and the Rainbow Diet, describing the system through which he believes cosmic energy feeds and nourishes our physical bodies. This system begins with the potential energy that fills the cosmos prior to the materialization of an object. The first "stepping down" of this virtual energy is into something called a tachyon field space, which can be thought of as the virtual state trying to become a particle. This tachyon field energy is next stepped down as a particle of matter called a photon. This continues to be stepped down into what he refers to as Subtle Organizing Energy Fields (SOEFs). SOEFs create the template form of living systems, resonate with and energize the mind and body.

It is believed is that a perfectly organized SOEF can transfer by resonance from the level of purely cosmic energy to the biological level without a loss of energy. The SOEFs work in conjunction with the chakras and a series of subtle energy fields that regulate the flow of energy into the different parts of the body. Cousens says that the functioning of the SOEFs is impacted by the foods we eat: "When we eat in a healthy, harmonious way, our ability to attune and commune with the Divine is enhanced."

When we eat foods of high vibration that are raw, organic, and living, and when we live an energizing, harmonious lifestyle, the energy of the SOEFs is enhanced. When energized, the SOEFs develop a more structured, defined organization that better maintains the form and function of the human system. This optimal function can reverse entropy or aging. On the other hand, when SOEFs are depleted through eating low energy foods and living energy-depleting lifestyles, they become less organized and the body ages.

This is why the true source of abundance is the ability to receive this unlimited cosmic energy free flowing into the SOEFs and the physical body. As our mind and body become better conductors, we're able to store and transmit greater and greater amounts of higher energy. This explains how miracles occur in the presence of spiritual masters!

Raw plant foods, laughter, joy, bliss and unconditional love all exist on the same frequency. Tuning into this frequency raises the overall vibration of your energy field, causing anything that is vibrating at a lower frequency, such as fear, pain, depression and toxins to eventually percolate out to be removed from the body.

Once we clean our minds and bodies, we are able to live with the lightness that less eating and a clean body will produce and we will be able ready to get in touch with a much higher plane. As you change your diet to natural high-vibrational foods, and become free of the toxic waste, inner channels of receptivity are opened. We become dramatically less dense and better able to pick up those cosmic vibrations and forces that were beyond our perception in the past!

A whole new dimension of sensitivities awakens, especially a more profoundly intimate knowledge of our oneness identity, and we become more open to Universal Love, wisdom and guidance.

The body derives its nourishment from pranic energy, but when the body is dirty, it's hard for it to use pranic energy. When people eat cooked food and put things into their bodies that don't belong there, this toxic build up makes our third eye blind. As people start to eat cleaner, more healthful foods, our psychic abilities open and we are able to see our true nature.

As I move further along my spiritual path, the benefits of eating a raw food diet becomes more and more apparent. It makes sense to me that freeing energy that would otherwise be spent digesting heavy food gives me more energy for spiritual pursuits. It also makes sense that eating foods of high vibration raises my vibration.

Our real nourishment is Divine energy. May you be blessed!
