How to Overcome a Fear of the Spirit World

A few years ago I really wanted to open up to the spirit realm and learn to connect with my spirit guides, but for months on end, fear stood in my way. I was scared of seeing/hearing ghosts, disembodied voices, evil entities and even my own spirit guides. I felt that hardly anyone could help me overcome this issue and most of those who did just said I had to ‘face the fear’, which I felt wasn’t much help because I was paralyzed by it! Later on I had some help and reassurance from other psychics and had many breakthroughs of my own in my understanding of the spirit world, which helped me to deconstruct my fear and see it for what it was. I will share some of these breakthroughs in this post.

It's Important to Plan End of Life Decisions

By Nick Messe

An effective estate plan is more than a decision on how to distribute your assets after death and should be developed at the law offices of a qualified estate planning attorney. A will is an important starting point in the process, but may not always be enough depending on your specific situation. There are a variety of estate planning tools that can be utilized to give you and your family security and peace of mind. A will is a written document that outlines how a person wants their assets and property distributed upon their death. If applicable it will indicate who will become the guardian of minor children or disabled dependents. A will also sets out who will administer the estate.

Listen to the interview with Carolyn Brent too learn why it's so important to have end-of-life discussions before you are placed in a position to make a decision while wrought with emotions.


Using quality legal representation to assist you in preparing your will can help ensure your wishes are followed. Dying without a will or leaving an ill-prepared will can lead to confusion, contests by family members and increased probate costs. A trust is used to manage assets or property. There are different types of trusts available depending on the situation. For instance, a living trust is used to transfer assets to a trust to be administrated for the benefit of the person until death. A testamentary trust is established in a will and usually prepares for the financial care of minor children or disabled dependents.

A successful and enforceable trust should be prepared by an attorney to ensure it meets all legal requirements. Other important estate planning tools include living wills and powers of attorney. A power of attorney is used to assign personal powers to an agent to act on your behalf in a legal capacity. Different types of powers of attorney include limited, general, durable and financial.

For instance, a durable power of attorney allows your agent to act in your capacity during your incapacitation. Utilizing a power of attorney in this regard helps avoid the state becoming involved in your affairs. Quality legal representation can help you understand what type of documents applies to your unique situation and ensure they are executed correctly. A living will, also referred to as an advanced health care directive, is used to specify your wishes concerning end of life decisions. Specifically, it is used to communicate to family members and medical professionals what life-saving measures, if any, should be taken.

Using an attorney to help draft your living will can help guarantee there are no misunderstandings regarding your last requests. Developing an estate plan has become a necessary part of life. It is important to interview and hire a qualified attorney from a law firm capable of handling your estate planning needs.

At the law offices of Stone, Duncan, & Associates, PC we provide quality legal services and a unique legal experience to individuals, businesses, and professionals throughout Pennsylvania. If you're looking for a Criminal Lawyer in the counties of Adams, Berks, Cumberland, Dauphin, Franklin, Fulton, Lancaster, Lebanon, Perry, Schuylkill, or York, give us a call.

This rosary was released by Mother Mary for the specific purpose of bringing forth the miracle of raising the consciousness of humankind and for resolving personal issues. For a detailed explanation, see the following message by Mother Mary. NOTE: By instructions from Mother Mary, this miracle rosary in NOT copyrighted. You have permission to use and distribute this rosary as you see fit. However, please do not alter the rosary.

In the name of the unconditional love of the Father, the Son, the Holy Spirit and the Miracle Mother, Amen.

(Insert your personal prayer here)

NOTE: To give the complete rosary, repeat the following cycle of affirmations four times (give the Hail Mary nine times for each cycle). This will take 22-30 minutes depending on speed. If you do not have time for the full rosary, repeat the cycle one time. You can insert personal calls and dedicate the rosary for a specific purpose after the initial dedication.

Lord’s Prayer

Our Father-Mother God who is within all life,
We honor your Presence, the I AM, within us.
We accept your kingdom manifest on Earth through us.
We accept our responsibility to manifest your will on Earth,
as it is manifest in Heaven.

We accept that you are giving us our daily opportunity
to be all that you are.
We acknowledge that you forgive us our imperfections,
as we forgive each other and surrender our will
to the higher will within us.
We therefore accept the truth
that the universe returns to us what we send out.

We take responsibility for our lives and our planet.
We vow to rise above the temptations of the lower self,
so that you can deliver us from all imperfect energies.
We affirm that your kingdom, power and glory
is manifest on Earth, now and forever. Amen.

Hail Mary

Oh Mother Mary, we release
all thoughts and feelings less than peace,
releasing now all patterns old,
we leave behind the mortal mold.

River of Life, eternal flow,
we will to live, we will to grow.
We will transcend and be the more,
the joy of life we do adore. (One time only)

NOTE: The above Hail Mary is the one best suited for the present Aquarian age consciousness. The Hail Mary below is the original one, given as a transition between the Piscean and Aquarian consciousness. You can use either one according to your own sense of what resonates with you.


Hail Mary

Hail Mary, one with Grace,
the Lord is with us through you.
Blessed are we by your miracle Grace,

and by the miracle love of your son, Jesus.

Holy Mary, Mother of Miracles,
we surrender our fears, now and forever.
We accept God’s unconditional love,
and see the Miracle Kingdom manifest on Earth. (One time only)

Affirmation of the Inner Christ

In the name of Jesus Christ,
I call to beloved Mary, Mother of Miracles.
Teach me the miracle of holding the immaculate concept
for myself, for all life and for the Earth.
Teach me the miracle of complete surrender to God
that I too may say from the bottom of my soul:

“Oh Lord, be it unto me according to your will.”

Hail Mary.

I hereby surrender all that stands in the way
of the manifestation of God’s miracle in my life.
Oh God, I surrender myself completely unto you.
Oh God, I withhold nothing from you.
Oh God, I give my all to you.

Hail Mary

I surrender my human ego and false sense of identity,
and I accept that God consumes it now.
Oh God, I am willing to lose my mortal sense of identity
to win the immortal life of the Christ consciousness.
I call to my Christ self to descend and take command

over all aspects of my life and consciousness,

and I accept that I am filled with the Light of Christ,
now and forever.
I accept that my Christ self is the Way, the Truth and the Life,
and that my life is built upon the rock of Christ.

Hail Mary

Oh God, I confess that I of my own self can do nothing;
it is the I AM presence within me who is the true doer.
I accept that I am created in the image and likeness of God.
I accept that I am a son/daughter of God.
I accept that the Christ is born in me this moment,
and I accept that I AM the second coming of Christ in me.

Hail Mary

I accept that I am the Living Christ walking the Earth,
and therefore I accept and affirm that God can do
the works through me that he did through Jesus.
I accept and affirm that with God all things are possible.

Therefore, I accept the manifestation of the miracle of God
in all aspects of my life and consciousness.

Hail Mary

I accept the miracle of the overturning of the tables
of the false teachers and their false students,
those who deny the Christ within themselves and others.
Those who will not enter the inner path
and who seek to hinder those
who are willing to enter the true path.
I accept that their day is done

and that their citadels of power, in church and state are no more.
I accept that they have no power on Mother Earth.

Hail Mary

I accept the miracle of the raising
of all sons and daughters of God
to discover and accept the true, inner path
to personal Christhood.
I accept the miracle of a mass awakening,
and I see people accepting the inner path
and bringing about the second coming of Christ
and the true Christ Mass.

Hail Mary

I accept the miracle of God’s kingdom manifest on Earth.
I affirm and accept the coming
of the ascended Jesus Christ
to reign as the spiritual king of Earth, now and forever.
I see this done and I hold the immaculate concept
for the Earth and all life thereon.

Hail Mary

The Earth is the Lord’s and the fullness thereof. (Repeat 3 times)
Amen.

In the name of the unconditional love of the Father,
the Son, the Holy Spirit and the Miracle Mother, Amen.

Sealing of the rosary

I accept the infinite peace of the Divine Mother. I choose to abide in that peace always, and I accept the perfect love of the Divine Mother. I accept that her love consumes all my fears. I accept that I am the Living Christ in embodiment, and I vow to be all that I am in God and more.

In the name of the Father, the Son, the Holy Spirit and the Miracle Mother, I seal the Earth in the infinite love and light of the Divine Mother. It is done, it is finished, it is sealed in matter, for the mouth of the Divine Mother has spoken it. Amen.

Virtual Interview with Author Carolyn Brent

Today I have the great pleasure of being the host on Day 3 of the Virtual Blog Tour of author Carolyn A. Brent whose book Why Wait? The Baby Boomers' Guide to Preparing Emotionally, Financially and Legally for a Parent’s Death launches on Amazon on Tuesday November 15, 2011.

Author Carolyn A. Brent, M.B.A. is a former clinical educational manager in the pharmaceutical industry. She is an avid activist and advocate working with the U.S. Congress for the purpose of creating change to protect seniors and veterans from financial and medical abuse. She has appeared on many local and national TV and radio shows, and is a sought-after keynote speaker.

Yesterday, Carolyn visited Lynn Serafinn at http://lynnserafinn.com/news-lynn-serafinn-coach-author-workshops-radio-community-leader/what-no-one-wants-to-talk-about-but-absolutely-must , where Lynn shared with you a summary and live interview recording with Carolyn.

Today, I'd like to share with you a recent interview I had with Carolyn when I got to ask her some important family questions around support and being prepared. I hope you enjoy it.

-------

Yvonne Perry: I know that end-of-life issues are very important, but this is one of those topics most people don’t like to discuss. What do you think are some of the crucial emotional conversations parents, and siblings?

Carolyn A. Brent: Thank you for this wonderful question. You are correct people do not want to have these types of conversations.  However, if a family avoids talking about the emotional things such as money, hospitals, the "what if" and wait until there is a sudden unexpected emergency, all hell can breakout due to emotions running high.  So, it is best to be prepared for your parent’s end-of-life physical, mental, and emotional challenges and ultimate death, by having the conversation early rather than later.

Yvonne Perry: My mom is a caregiver for her 95-year-old mother. I would like to see my mom taking better care of her own self and asking for help when she needs it. Do you have any tips about how to get some help when other family members can’t/won’t step in to relieve the full-time caregiver?

Carolyn A. Brent: Reach Out for Support!  It is critical that you reach out for support for your mom.  You can support your mom by asking extended family members and friends to contribute in any way to take some of the pressure off your mother. If your family members can’t/won’t step in to relieve your mom, REACH OUT and get RESPITE CARE for your grandmother. Respite Care will allow your mom to get a week or so off from her 24 hours a day 7 days a week from the work of a caregiver. You want to help your mom avoid caregiver burnout….
Also, take your mom to a day spa, you can offer your mom a day off, a week off, but simply do your best to assist in any way you can to let your mom know that she is not alone.

Yvonne Perry: At what point should a family decide to choose hospice care for an ailing loved one?

Carolyn A. Brent: Hospice care is appropriate when a person will no longer benefit from curative treatment and life expectancy is approximately six months if the disease runs its normal course. The decision for someone to enter a hospice program will be a joint decision between the person, his or her family members, and his or her primary care physician and the hospice medical director.

----------

I hope you enjoyed this interview with Carolyn A. Brent and that you’ll check out her book Why Wait? The Baby Boomers' Guide to Preparing Emotionally, Financially and Legally for a Parent’s Death at http://www.babyboomersguide.org/book-launch/pre-launch.html

Life After Death, Beyond a Reasonable Doubt?

It’s understandable and natural to wonder or be fascinated by the idea of life after death, but there are so many conflicting accounts! How then are we to assess the truth for ourselves? Well today I’m excited to share an opportunity with you to deliberate the matter for yourself in a very special online trial, and best of all, participation is totally free!

We've all heard stories about near death experiences and afterlife encounters, but is there enough evidence to hold true in the criteria used by our court system - beyond a reasonable doubt - that personal consciousness survives death? This is exactly what my friend and colleague New York Times bestselling author and former criminalist, Eldon Taylor investigates in his provocative new series where you, the listening audience, become the jury. But be advised, in your search for the truth, you may well find some of your favorite theories disproved!

More details here: http://www.progressiveawarenesspromotions.com/it/11k/index.html

The evidence in this case will be closely examined via the means of near death experiences, reincarnation, electronic voice phenomenon, animals and the afterlife, mediumship, and more! You will hear in-depth testimony from 14 leading experts in these fields, such as: Dr. Raymond Moody, PMH Atwater—a long-time acquaintance of mine who not only is exacting in her research but also had three of her own near-death experiences that led her into decades of further exploration, Dr. Julie Beischel, Dr. T. Lee Baumann, David Kessler, Dr. Kevin Nelson and Michael Tymn. By interviewing the experts, Eldon evaluates and lets you decide the verdict.

The information from this series may surprise you, so be sure to assess all the facts for yourself and make your own verdict. Also, gain access to incredible bonus gifts from numerous sponsors of this program, including one from myself.

Remember, there is zero cost involved and this series is only available for a limited period of time. I know this program will offer you many eye-opening moments, so please do check it out - click the link below to join the investigation.
