I have such a sense of panic

January 17, 2010

From Sandy:

Please help me–what is in store for me in the future–I have such a sense of panic.  I constantly dream of my late husband but there I feel like there is an urgency that I need to know.  My finances?? I spoke to Kim a year ago and had some piece of mind but lately I feel unsettled??  Please advise and give me guidance to my future.

Thanks in advance–deeply appreciated.


Inspirations from Binah:

We are in a moment in the evolution of our world where there are many things changing at the same time. From social interactions to business dealings, it can become overwhelming trying to learn so much, so quickly. But the simple truth is that there is no need to rush. We are each taking different paths that converge on the same point, therefore you need only set your personal pace.

Your sense of panic may be calling back your late husband which is why he is often in your dreams. And yet, just as you need to move forward in life, he needs to move forward on his own journey. Use your dreams as a tool for discovery, working with your spiritual guides, and thus allowing those you loved on this human plane to continue with their evolution.

Before you go to bed, set an intention to discover the source of your panic. You can focus on specific areas, such as your finances, or allow your guides to choose the direction. Setting a clear intention on something positive will send a message to the Universe that you are ready to receive. From there, your guides will work with you to ensure you are receiving in stride with your desired pace.

Use a mantra or affirmation at bedtime to set the intention, or just go into meditation and plant the seed. Choose a method that feels comfortable and safe. When you wake from your dreams, stay as still as possible as you recount all that you dreamed. Do not process it then, just work on memorizing all the sights, scents, emotions, and so forth. You store memory in your body, therefore the more still you are as you do this, the easier it is to recall. Once you have repeated it as many times as necessary, begin the process of writing it down. Again, do feel the need to process at this time, just straight transfer from mind to written word.

From here you will have a wealth of information, specifically tailored to you, to use in your daily life. Your questions will be answered and those unsettling feelings will dissipate as the knowledge you acquire shows you that you are moving forward at your optimal speed. New obstacles can be tackled using the same dream method and as you become more in tune with your guides, new methods of discovery will be handed down. Soon, the moments of panic will become few and far between since you know that the knowledge you seek, is only a dream away.

What is happening to my life?

December 31, 2009

From Sharky:

Life has always been very difficult for me, I have had a marriage full of emotional abuse and financial threat though there were no financial problems, i was working in a great company but the company went down and we had to quit our job after all this I decided to go solo and work on my own but the depression or inertia that set in is really not subsiding also i was told that I was meant to be a healer and have a great affinity with the Tarot and Angel cards but i don’t know how to start marketing myself. I am totally engrossed in reading about mysticism and spirituality i don’t feel like going out to get business, i feel lazy, have memory lapses and sleep a lot with dreams which i do not remember on waking up. What is happening to my life i don’t understand. Please help me.


Inspirations from Binah:

The beginning of a journey is filled with great enthusiasm. New lessons are devoured as we search for the steps to be taken. And yet, there is also intense fear and worry. Following a new road means crossing uncharted territories and forging a path through land that once seemed uninhabitable. Laziness sets in – the feeling that everything is too difficult to work through and so it is better to do nothing.

But in your writing there is one thing that shines… HOPE. Hope moves you to seek help, fight the inertia and continue to move forward. Recognize that feeling of hope and use its momentum to guide you.

To begin, you have only to apply what you have learned. Start with a dream journal to receive the messages you are being given. Before going to bed, set your intention to remember your dreams. When you wake in the morning, do not move; lie in the exact position you find yourself in and replay all the dreams you can remember over and over again until they are memorized. Now write all that you have memorized to fully integrate it into your waking consciousness. Include every detail since you never know what will reveal a message. By making this a part of your daily routine, you will add a valuable tool for self-discovery to your toolbox.

Approach each obstacle as a chance to discover a new tool or insight. Look at it with hope and enthusiasm, for it is a chance to learn something about yourself. In time, an obstacle will no longer feel like an unmanageable problem, but instead will become an exciting adventure where you get to pull out new tools and put them to work.

With the new year you have a chance to shed the depression of the past and step into the hope for the future. May you find every tool you need to manifest your abundance.

I’m having terrible memory issues and increased psychic ability

December 4, 2009

From Paula:

I have had terrible memory issues. I think that I have a real problem. About 3 years ago I fell 10 feet onto my back in the middle of the night from a loft that was being renovated in a warehouse apartment that I was renting.

I laid there alone for several hours until the am. However I woke up in bed in the morning. I had a terrible concussion, and didn’t even realize what had happened to me until 5:30 pm that day. They did several tests, and nothing showed to have been a problem, however I suffered 3 seizures 2.5 months after my fall.

About a month ago I had another seizure out of the blue. I also have been having several memory issues. I cannot multi-task, and I used to be able to do this rather well. I have had many black outs of memory lately that are the same, as they were the first time that I hit my head. Pockets of time or episodes where I totally misplace something and have NO idea what happened.

I haven’t any medical insurance and I really need to understand what is happening to me. This is also affecting my business, however my psychic ability has increased, and I say things to people as if it were regular conversation and I have no idea that I am channeling. There have been several times where I have had people nearly fall off their chair by something that I have said, that I would have no idea of unless the spirit whispered it to me.

What do I do?


Inspirations from Binah:

There are several ways to look at your situation. You can go after the physical symptoms and consult once again with a doctor. Given your lack of medical insurance, there is probably a reluctance to take this approach until other avenues have been explored, but it is important not to remove it from the list of options until you feel well.

Your blackouts and memory issues may be strongly related to your increased psychic ability. When you go into a full body trance state, your consciousness takes a back seat as the entity you are channeling comes in. When you are done, your consciousness steps back into her rightful place and you have no memory of what happened.

The important thing to remember is that you have control over whether or not you allow an entity to use you as a channel. Right now, you are not exercising that right and the entity has free reign to come and go as it pleases. You have to take back control and decide if you want this entity to channel through you at all. If you decide to create a contract with it, then you must set strong boundaries around the use of your body.

Go into your meditative sanctuary and ask your Higher Self to bring in the entity you are channeling. Ask the entity any questions you feel are important in determining whether you want to continue working with it. Be clear in stating that it can not enter unless you give explicit permission. Even if you choose to continue working with it, you want to come up with a system where it either asks before entering, relays information for you to consciously pass on, or you call it when you are ready. If you choose not to continue channeling this entity, tell it your decision and that it can no longer enter you at all. Your boundary will be honored.

This process is the same regardless of the entity channeled. Given your abilities, expect other entities to also want to work with you. Just as in the physical world, you want to associate only with those you feel comfortable with. Each time, you must consciously choose to accept or deny the contract, or you can decide to shut down your channeling abilities until you are ready. Once you are fully in control, you may find the physical symptoms dissipate, for the body’s actions are manifestations of your energy field. Be strong and know that you have the power to heal your body, now is the time to exercise it!

I’m being driven to start my own church, am I delusional?

December 4, 2009

From Jordan:

Lately, (about the last six months or so,) I have been on a sort of personal spiritual quest. Part of that quest lead me to clean up some loose ties from my past, including starting a website for a family members church and culminating in my ordination into a non-denominational church I had been loosely affiliated with for nearly 40 years. The thing is, all of that sort of feels like a layover in an airport. It doesn’t feel like my destination…or even where I am drawn to go.

Since my ordination, I have been creating a self designed course on Interfaith spirituality. I am working at it in joyful bliss as if it were some sort of inner mandate. To me, I guess it is. I spend literally hours each day on this self-assigned program. I have even asked a few people to act as my advisers, to sort of keep me honest and help me see clearer when needed. The work I am laying out for myself is thorough and more than just a little bit exhausting at times. And yet it feels like I am being guided, (pushed, drawn,) to do it.

I have no idea why this is such a strong drive or what I’ll do with the information when I’m done. I have even designed a stole out of a multi-colored fabric of my choosing because the satin and fringe ones all seem so…….not right for me.

This inner pull to start setting up and preparing for….something, is all encompassing. I don’t believe or feel drawn to be one of those people with hundreds of followers of my own religion. I’d rather somehow be a facilitator of many truths being shared, freely and openly. I keep seeing myself in this small stone chapel office. I’m preparing for the day, joyously answering correspondence and writing words of pure faith and guidance I suppose, to share. Just tell me….how delusional do you think I am? Should I be in therapy or something? :-) Any clue why I would be driven as if I am preparing to start my own church???


Inspirations from Binah:

Though it may be hard to accept that you are destined to bring peace, compassion and unity through your work, it does not make you delusional. You are a person inspired by the creator to achieve a specific life purpose. And unlike many in this world that are doing what they think they “should” be doing without any love or emotion, you have found true joy in your path.

There are times when all great leaders find themselves questioning their own sanity. It is that question that keeps them humble in their journey – for it is only when you stop to review what you have created, and the effects of your actions, that you can integrate all the lessons learned and improve your forward motion.

Allow your divine connection to continue to guide your way. As you work with your advisors to refine your work, you manifest from the mind of the All, through the heart center, and into the kingdom of Earth. You have taken all the necessary precautions, so release your worries and enjoy the process.

How do I keep my friend from damaging herself?

July 22, 2009

From Anonymous

My best friend seems to always be in a bad situation.  She is an amazing person and artist, but everything is so hard for her.  I don’t know if she creates it or if life is just unfair, but I don’t know how to help her.  Short of moving in with her and helping her organize her life, I’m at a total loss.  There are days when she gets so down that she just sits home all day and watches TV.  I go over there to motivate her, then she starts to do better for a while and realizes that she can have a good life, but if one bad thing happens, the cycle starts all over again.  How do I keep her from damaging herself and become the successful person I know she can be?


Inspirations from Binah:

I’m sure we have all been in the same situation you describe.  Whether it is a family member, partner or friend, there is always that one person you wish you could help out of the darkness of depression, illness or even just a lack of motivation.  The short answer to your question is that you can’t stop her from damaging herself – she has to live her life – all you can do is set an example for what she can become.

Support your friend when she needs you, but also remember to live your life.  Show her through your example that she can be healthy and happy.  Give her unconditional love, yet resist the urge to do everything for her.  If she starts to pull more than you can give, don’t be afraid to step back a little.  To be a good friend, you have take care of your own needs.

Ask your Higher Self to tell her Higher Self that you will not abandon her, even if you have to give her space to find her own way.  This reassurance will help her move forward with confidence.  Though you may not be around physically, your energy and love will get her through difficult times.  Hugs of support to you.

I don’t think my mom wants me in the house anymore

May 22, 2009

From Linette:

hay my name is linette and i want to know..what can i do when i feel as though my mom doesn’t want me in the house any more?


From Inspirations from Binah:

It is important for you to know Linette that you are loved by God, your Higher Self and all of the Spirit beings around you. When you feel as if your mother does not want you in the house, take a step back and look into why you are feeling this way. Does this come from something she told you or your interpretation of her behavior?

Take a deep breath and go have a conversation about your feelings with your mother. Communication is the first step to clearing the air and finding understanding. Often, we don’t understand how our behavior is interpreted by others. Just because your mother gets angry at you or may be sad about a specific event, it does not mean that she does not love you or want you around. Tell her what she is doing that leads you to believe she does not want you in the house, then give her a chance to tell you her side. Open your heart and listen to her response. Allow yourself the opportunity to hear not only her words, but her intentions. We are not all good at expressing eloquently what is in our hearts and minds, sometimes, you have to listen to the feeling of love and understanding in the message.

The most important thing for you to do is to be active about your feelings. Sitting around thinking your mother doesn’t want you around is not going to solve anything. By discussing the situation with her, you have a chance to reconnect and improve the situation. Once the problem has been brought out into the open, a solution can be found. Good luck!

I fear I will not have a family, how do I choose a path?

May 13, 2009

From Olga:

Hi there, I must say I am impressed with your work so I am going to ask for your advice. I am lost, I don’t really know how to choose a path to live!!I always have doubts for what I am doing, I change my mind often about my goals and my timing is not right!!

I face professional problems now, and I fell cheated from my own self cause I know my potential and I can ‘t get where I want!! But most of all my greatest fear is that I will not have a family, I will not have children… I ‘m soon to be 35, I have a relationship but he is 8 years younger and no plans for kids….

when I was younger, but a lot younger like I was 19 I had the opportunity to have children but I didn’t want too, so I am deep down afraid that I’ve lost my chance!

I would appreciate your thoughts about this


Inspirations from Binah:

No opportunity is ever really missed. If you accept the choices you’ve made and continue moving forward, that which you are meant to have will present itself again. Though you feel that you have not chosen a path to live, every day you make decisions, every day you choose your path. Give yourself the credit you deserve for manifesting all that is around you.

When it comes to planning a family, you must first speak with your partner. Forget about work and all your other worries, just focus on this one topic. Explain to him your desire for children without worrying about what he wants or needs. Speak straight from your heart. And then… listen. Listen to him tell you, from his heart, what he wants. And when you each know what the other needs, accept it. This is a topic where there is not much compromise to be made. Yes, you can forgo a family, but will you truly be happy if you do? Will he be happy with children he never really wanted? Just as you feel strongly that you want a family, it is possible that he is equally passionate about not having one, and that is something you are going to have to accept.

With acceptance, you will find new opportunities presenting themselves. Whether alone or with a partner, there are many ways to have children: adoption, foster parenting, traditional couples, trios… be open to the thought that your path may be unconventional. Look inward and find the path that is best for you. Once you find acceptance of the present life you’ve built, you will find that the future comes easily one decision at a time.

How is my current state of consciousness perceived?

April 1, 2009

From Travis:

A little over 2 years ago, I reached a point on my spiritual path that I recognized as an internal threshold.  I was able to glimpse the potentiality that traversing this threshold offered and it became apparent to me that realizing this potentiality was ultimately a matter of making a conscious choice.  Ever since my first encounter with this aspect of my being, I have been in a “holding pattern” that over time has depleted my internal resources.  One realization I have had as a result of this period of deterioration is that there seems to be a distinction between the vessel (mind/body/personality etc.) and the consciousness that occupies that vessel.  On some levels of my being, there is an impulse to regress to previous states of consciousness during which my “vessel” was more empowered and yet was equally as in need of transmutation as it is currently.  What I’m essentially wondering is how my current state of consciousness is perceived by The Spirits, particularly with regard to the state of the “vessel” as I’ve attempted to describe it above, and am also interested in any acknowledgement of my path that they are able to provide as a way to rekindle my faith.  Any insights you could offer would be greatly appreciated.


Inspirations from Binah:

It can be de-motivating when you find that your ‘vessel’ is not in the peak condition you believe it should be. Body issues, emotional traumas and negative personality traits take control of even the most enlightened consciousness and leave you feeling like you are stuck in place. Yet separating your vessel from your Spirit is doing you a great disservice. You are one being, made up of many difference components, put on this Earth to manifest your life purpose. Part of that purpose is how you work through the challenges of your physical existence. Take a step back and instead of trying to tackle your ‘vessel’ as one giant block, break it into little chunks you can work through. Discard that which does not serve you and make a list of what you feel is most important. Take your time with each one, thinking through what must be done, planning the steps and acting with confidence. With each accomplishment, your internal resources will be replenished.

There is no timeline for your personal development. What may feel like a step backwards, may actually be a step forward in a new lesson you need to learn. Stop for a minute and take a look around. Do you see all that you have accomplished… all that you have learned? While you thought you were standing still, in reality you were working through a lesson and acquiring skills on the connection between the physical and spiritual. Take that lesson into meditation and ask your spirit guides to lead you to the next path of your journey. It may seem obscure, but you will find that you’ve been going the right direction all along.

Am I doing the right thing for my daughter?

March 18, 2009

From Bridget:

Hello, thank you for inviting me to this group!
I have been struggling with a HUGE life issue the last 7 months.
In August of this year I left my boyfriend of 4 years because of abuse. I BELIEVE my partner was using crack cocaine but he lied and denied it over and over and over for years! He so often became angry and violent when I would keep pursuing him with questions. Everything in me said that he had a secret life, but i resisted my truth for so long.
We have a beautiful, delightful daughter together. She is almost 3 and her well being is the most important thing to me. I want to raise an enlightened child! During this time we have not had contact at all with him or his family. In the beginning it was very hard for her but now she seems to be so happy and well adjusted.

I decided I want to try to gain sole custody with no visitation, at this time. He will be facing charges this July for his assaults against me.

The courts are sooo unsympathetic and they PUSH for fathers to have parenting time, even with abusive men! The courts frown on mothers who ask for no visitation. I feel I need to protect my child from this family where spousal abuse has been rampant.

Of course her best interest and needs are in my heart! I want to do the best for her and am trying so hard.
I originally agreed to visits and recently changed my mind. I was feeling so sick, stressed, anxious, and dreaming of him frequently(unable to remember details, just know he was in my dreams). I took all that as a sign that the visits were not okay and I called my lawyer and said No I don’t want to go ahead with the visitation now. So I think it may be left in the courts hands. What is the best way for me to proceed with this situation? Am I doing the right thing for my daughter?
Thank You
~Blessings~


From Inspirations from Binah:

The instincts of a mother to protect her young are strong and often lead us in directions we never dreamed of. The only time to second guess those instincts is when they could be influenced by your individual feelings for another. Before you can answer if you are doing the right thing for your daughter, you must ask yourself how you feel about her father.

Though you must take into consideration his history of abuse, you must also be able to objectively evaluate the relationship your daughter has with her father. Do no let your anger at what he did to you impair your judgment. Confer with your Higher Self and ask what is truly in your daughter’s best and highest good. Ask for guidance to separate the anxiety you feel about the abuse you suffered from the messages you are receiving regarding visitation.

If you feel that you are not in a place where you can be impartial, then find someone that can be. In life, there are many times when it is best to get a second opinion. Ask a trusted friend or contact a professional then use the information they give you in conjunction with your own knowledge and instincts to make an informed decision.

I applaud your courage to go through the court system, it is a tough road. If after searching your heart and evaluating their relationship you still feel strongly that even supervised visits are out of the question, then you must continue down this road. The choice before you is difficult, but the fact that you are reaching out for more input says that your integrity is high and that you are looking out for your daughter’s best interest. Whatever choice you make, you will be supported.
