The Gift of You- December 2009

Dear Friends,

As I sit here writing you this letter in front of my fireplace, I am filled with immense gratitude for our infinite connection to God and the Life Force that is always available to us. Recently I newly discovered my own connected Presence to love. The experience that brought me this realization was a number of different scenarios leading up to a planned trip to Canada that I was not able to go on, well at least not for the best and highest good of all!

I was so disappointed. I had visualized this trip for months and was so excited to go.For days I cried like a baby, really feeling the pain deep in my heart…crying into the night on my pillow until 2:00 or 3:00 in the morning. I was so upset at myself for making a “wrong decision” in my mind that I could hardly see the beautiful person I was. I justified myself as being “wrong” by wrapping the gift of my soul in judgment…not pretty wrapping paper to say the least! I felt like an undesirable gift!

Yuck, I only wanted to see what was inside, but the wrapping paper of judgment looked so ugly!

Remembering a spiritual truth saved the day (and night), I knew at the bottom of my heart that oftentimes there is truth and beautiful gifts behind the appearances of things, so I took a step in COURAGE and unwrapped the gift of me…

Tears began pouring down, I could feel the magnificence of God’s love within me illuminating every cell of my body. The angels caressed my skin and I could hear them say “surrender to love precious child, trust in our peace and let it go.”

Relaxing deeper, I fell into the presence of God…

My mind tried to hold on to the painful thoughts but as I surrendered them to love, feeling complete peace and understanding. I discovered that by connecting to the love within me, there was truly nothing outside of me that could take me from this presence of love, it was inside me!

Nothing was “right or wrong,” from an infinite perceptive of love and learning. Love is always around us, it’s not until we feel it within that we can receive it from the world.

I thought I had done something “wrong.”

Have you ever felt bad about not having something only to discover that what you really WANTED was already within you. The love you are is your gift, WHERE EVER YOU ARE NOW OR WHATEVER YOU CHOOSE TO DO IN YOUR LIFE IS AN EXPRESSION OF YOUR OWN LOVE.

This is my Christmas present to you, to share my experience and hopefully inspire you to understand that this gift of love is always available to you and forever expanding into a greater expression. Love cannot be taken away, created or destroyed. It is simply the truth that passes all understanding, what I often call Intuition.

For me, I found the outside circumstance were not what I had consciously paid for or planned this Christmas season. They were something that was priceless and sponsored by God, the gift of my own PRESENCE.

Sitting in the arms of god I rest in love…friends have called, clients and loved one’s alike, the spirited angels kissed my heart that night and the veils parted. There I met with all our angelic brothers and sisters of the light…inviting me to see the truth and live in the
LIGHT OF LOVE. I hope you will connect with your own presence today and open the GIFT OF YOU!

With joy,

Abby

Living My Dream- May 2005

It is a joy to share the gift of healing with you. I wanted to briefly tell you how I began my career as an Intuitive Coach.

As a young child I believed I was special, that there was something different and unique about me. Well, that was one sure way to get myself in trouble! Years later I finally realized that the way to claim my “special place” in the world was to be of service.

Dare to Dream! “I have a dream, a dream that serves you and me; together we are standing in perfect peace and harmony.” I’m sure each one of you has a dream. Something that makes your heart sing, your body sweat, and your imagination run wild! What ignites the spark of light within you?

Your dream may not look the same as mine. In fact, it will probably be radically different! Dreams are expressions of our own unique divinity and creativity. When we dream, we connect to an infinite source of love that is waiting to express itself through us.

My dream began to awaken when I was a young adult. I remember spending countless hours underneath the shady apple trees in my backyard. There, I would listen to the birds sing and laugh out loud as the wind would tickle my bare feet. Life was beautiful and surely a place where all my dreams could come true! So I continued to dream…

All through the way through grade school and high school I remained intently focused on my vision. My vision was this: I saw myself helping men, women and children alike at a healing center where I offered counseling services, energetic healing, massage therapy, and Yoga. People would come to this center for peace and restoration, for healing and empowerment, and to gain clarity into their life’s purpose.

After years of continuing to diligently focus on my intention to manifest this dream, it has now become my waking reality. I opened Life Force Connection a year and a half ago. Come rain or shine, my dream continues to grow. Each and every day brings many new surprises, but I have learned to embrace the thrill in not knowing what the next moment may bring!

What do you intend to create for yourself? There is a flame of light within you waiting to be ignited. The light within me wanted to help others awaken to their purpose. How do you choose to shine your light? Now is the time for you to re-ignite your passion and live the life of your dreams!

With joy, Abby

From Fear to Love

I believe that each of us was born of the light, that we are always surrounded by the light, and that we can be constantly guided by the light of love within our own hearts. So the question is, what keeps us from embracing the love that we are?

The absence of love is fear. Love is your presence. Love is your being. Love is who you are. When we choose to quiet our own inner thoughts, we can feel the presence of love living, breathing, and working through us.

When we choose to listen in quiet confidence to our own inner voice of wisdom, all fear disappears. God speaks in stillness. In this stillness we can feel and know truth. The truth is love. Love requires nothing because it already is everything. You are this love.

I had a client come into my office last week who was so terrified that she could hardly write her name in the in-take form. Trembling with fear she asked me if she could ever feel whole again. I wasn’t really sure what she meant by whole, but I assumed that she simply wanted to feel love again. I smiled and gazed deeply into her eyes, “Of course you will feel love again. You have simply forgot that love is who you are.”

We spent the next hour releasing beliefs of unworthiness, self-doubt and negativity. Towards the end of the session, her face began to soften. Tears of joy streamed down her faced and she burst out laughing! ” I can’t believe I ever read into my silly thoughts, they are just like books in a library- some are happy stories and some just need to be placed back on the shelf!

And so it is with our thoughts. Every thought that you think can be perceived as a story, fiction or non-fiction. The only way a thought can have any power over you is if you invest your energy into it. By detaching from your thoughts, you can surrender to the bliss of simply being.
