Highly Sensitive People May Communicate with Ghosts

When I stopped using my own energy to offer healing to others, the empathic attacks lessened, but I was still able to see and hear in the spirit realm. Disembodied souls would awaken me during the night and hover overhead, staring at me until I woke up. I heard things no one else heard and I could feel the energy of ghosts around me. I even wrote a book about it, More Than Meets the Eye True Stories about Death, Dying, and Afterlife. I’ve always been sensitive to the energy of “deceased” people.

Jerry, a friend of mine, was fatally stabbed in the parking lot of a Kroger store in 2007 while trying to stop a man who had stolen a purse from a 60-year-old woman. When I heard Jerry had died, I was immediately catapulted into an empathetic episode like I had not experienced since I was serving as an intercessory prayer warrior in the city of Muncie in the mid-1990s. The grief-like energy I was carrying for Jerry's friends and family was so severe that after two days, I finally called on an energy-worker friend to clear me so I could stop sobbing.

After that, I put up some really strong protective barriers to keep from taking on other people's energy, but Jerry didn’t seem to get the message. His spirit hung around me for more than a week following his death. I didn't want to do what he was urging me to do—contact his mom and sister and give them a message from him: “Tell them I am with Mason.” The message didn't mean anything to me. I wasn't sure if Mason was a person, a pet, a bricklayer, or a lodge member. I hesitated sharing this insight because I didn't know how open his sister and mom were to having a stranger give them a psychic message and I didn't want to add to their grief. What if I was wrong and the message had no relevance to them?

However, Jerry was insistent, and at the time, I didn't know how to make ghosts go away. So, I found his mother’s address and wrote a letter giving her the message with my phone number and return address. I didn't hear anything from the family until nearly two and a half years later when I got a letter from his sister, stating that she finally knew what the message meant. He had visited with a friend who was a cashier at the store the day Jerry was killed. Her name was Mason.

Are There Ghosts Or Entities in Your Life

By Bart Sharp
Going beyond the tales of ghosts that we have all heard in stories, television and in books. I have found that entities and some ghosts are involved in most people's lives often without them knowing it.

Most ghosts are simply beings that have died and generally due to their own fears when they were alive decide not to move on to an after life. In some cases the death was so abrupt that the ghost never realizes that they have transitioned. In other situations people that have a great fear of death resist the transition so strongly that they remain on this plane as a ghost.

In a slow process all ghosts lose their connection to living life and basically drift as lost spirits with a few purposes or missions that they are steadfastly connected to. That is why a ghost will stay in a place and do one specific behavior such as; defend a home from intruders. That mission was important to them when they were alive. In most cases ghosts are a little more than a nuisance.

Entities on the other hand are more disturbing; they can influence your disposition to life, drain your energy, create illnesses and more. In my experience in removing entities I have seen a wide variety of ailments/behaviors that quickly left once the entity was removed such as: an unexplainable illness that no one seemed to be able to identify the cure, noises or voices that occurred in the person's mind that would not go away, suddenly tiredness, depression, headaches, being angry or aggressive for no apparent reason and more.

There are a variety of entities that attach to people and pets. They come from dimensional planes that function at a lower vibrational rate than ours. When they come here they are mostly attracted to people whose mindset matches the entity's own vibration. As a result people that have lots of anger, rage, guilt, addiction or other limiting emotions are the entity's preferred choice. There are exceptions as people that are very evolved can have entities as well.

Places that are most likely to have entities are hospitals, bars, mental institutions and other places. Basically the places that have elements of fear (which is the basis of rage, addiction, trauma, guilt etc...) generally attract more entities. I worked with a woman whose right side of her body was numb. She had recently been released from an institution for addiction to pain medications. After in intense hour of removing the entities (all done over the phone) her body was back to normal. Many cases of mental illness can have an ingredient of entities that influence the person's mental stability.

Ghosts, Spirits and Hauntings

By L. Meyer
We're all fascinated with ghosts. There are so many television programs that center around ghost hunting such as Ghost Hunters, Ghost Adventures, Most Haunted and Ghost Lab.

Shows about paranormal research, haunted houses and ghosts caught on tape are becoming more and more popular. True ghost stories have gained the attention of millions of viewers.

Ghosts and hauntings have become a focus of entertainment, mainly because we want to know more about what ghosts are and why they're here.

There is a difference between ghosts and spirits, and is explained as follows:

Spirits

Spirits are the energies of deceased loved ones and friends who have died and gone into the Light. However, they do have the ability to visit us, and they do very often. They can come and go as they please between our world and the Other Side.

Spirits are not bound by space and time like humans are. They are pure energy and move about effortlessly. Spirits love to let us know they're with us and that they aren't far away at all.

Ghosts

Ghosts are the energies of people who, for their own reasons, are earthbound. Basically, ghosts are:

1. People who have died suddenly and don't know they're dead
2. People who are attached to loved ones or places and don't want to leave them

Hauntings occur when a ghost feels threatened by our presence, or feels we're invading the space they once occupied, or is angry because their lives ended too soon.

If you feel your home is haunted by a ghost, you can try to get rid of them by firmly asking them to leave, and explain that they're no longer alive and must go to the light. You can also ask spirit to escort them to the light.

While ghosts may haunt houses and will do so for many years, spirit will come to get them eventually. Until then, we need to have more compassion and understanding for them, and look at their existence from their point of view.

Are You Being Visited by a Ghost, a Loved One From the Other Side Or an Angel? - 5 Ways to Know

By Melissa Van Rossum

Everyone receives visits from ghosts, loved ones from the Other Side and angels. Even though many of these visits are meant to be comforting, sometimes the presence of an otherworldly visitor can be unnerving and even frightening. Knowing who these guests are, however, and why they're visiting you can make their visit easier and often, even comforting.

Here are three ways you can tell these visits from one another:

1.Ghostly Visits - Visits from a ghost, or the earthbound spirit of a deceased individual, usually bears several tell-tale signs. First, their presence is typically not comforting. When you're around a ghost you feel watched - even if you're alone in the room. You might even begin to feel unexplained nervousness, sadness or depression. You may feel sudden cold spots in the room or, in some cases, you might even see a ghostly human image - if only for a moment. Some people have seen a kind of blur or a flash of movement when no one else is in the room.

2.Visits from Loved Ones from the Other Side - A visit from a loved one who is on the Other Side is a very different experience from a ghostly visit. While you can also feel a cold spot or a temperature shift when a loved one is around, you typically don't feel nervous or uncomfortable when it happens. Along with the slight temperature shift, you may begin to reflect on memories of that loved one. Our loved ones often bring messages of encouragement when we need it, so you're more likely to feel loved and comforted when they're around. When a deceased loved one is around, we often start thinking of them and feeling their presence and reflecting on our memories of them as a result. For example, Tony, a hairstylist, feels his grandmother nearby whenever he is thinking his way through some of his life's challenges. He smells her perfume, remembers her advice, and begins to feel the comfort she offers him. Visits from loved ones are a very positive, healing experience.

3. Angelic Visits - Angelic visits feel a bit different from when our loved ones visit. There is definitely a shift to a cooler temperature and often a slight breeze. You might even see sparkles of light where they move. Sometimes, because their energy is so pure and their vibration is so high, you can even feel a bit dizzy. Angels are available whenever we need them - they help us ease through conflicts and protect and comfort us through frightening times, though they most often respond to our calls and requests for their help. Angels are present with newborns and small children to comfort and protect and to pass on messages to their parents and caretakers. After my son was born, an angel appeared to me and gave me a message about his life purpose. While she was with us, the air around us felt as though we were on the top of a mountain. Unlike ghosts, an angel's presence always has a purpose. They often bear a message or ensure protection and because of this you usually feel comforted, assured, loved and happy.

Why Ghosts Make Noise - It's Not For the Reasons You Might Think

By Melissa Van Rossum

Ghosts do some pretty bizarre things to get our attention. As someone who has interacted with ghosts since I was a child, I've seen and heard some pretty amazing things.

And they continue to happen...

Like the other night when I woke up to the sound of pacing in my hallway. There were two different sets of footsteps that night. One had a heavier step and a different pace from the other set. They seemed to be worried about something and they paced for hours.

After a while I was able to block out the noise and I went back to sleep. I realize that sounds like an unusual response, but unexplained noises happen so often in my life I just flow with it most of the time. Too, ghosts are really very egocentric. To them the only problems that exist are theirs.

They crave attention. Which is why they make the noises they do. They go through their days and nights mostly being around people who can't see or hear them. So they do what they can to get noticed. Being noticed often becomes a life purpose for many ghosts since they feed off of that attention.

I received an email recently from a reader who is regularly visited by spirits and we began discussing the creative ways in which ghosts and other spirits work to get our attention. Flashing lights, computer and other electrical disturbances are definite favorites.

That night I woke up at 3 a.m. and went into the bathroom, accidentally dropping something and making a loud noise. "Shhhh.." a bodiless voice said from inside the bathroom. It startled me but I knew she was just enjoying my attention.

She left quickly, so, off I went back to bed. I knew she'd be back. The next day I was downstairs with the kids when suddenly the upstairs toilet flushed. Since no one was upstairs at the time, we all thought this was a little suspicious.

About 15 minutes later it happened again. So, we all went upstairs for a while, and there was no flushing. Back we went downstairs, and again, more flushing!

I left the house for a little while and when I came back my husband said the pattern had continued. As long as someone was upstairs the toilet was quiet. But whenever we all went downstairs, the flushing continued.

Later that night I went up to my bathroom and found the ghostly gal who was working so hard to get our attention. Her name was Sandy and she told me she was lonely and bored. She felt angry and resentful over hard times and betrayals from her life as well as a tragic death. Her energy was a little threatening and distrusting. So, rather than running the risk of losing her again, I quickly turned the conversation to going home. She was ready and with my help, went to the Other Side easily.

Usually people think that ghosts haunt or make noise to scare or intimidate. Sometimes that's the case, but more often than not they make noise to get attention. Ghosts are stuck and unhappy and make noise for attention and help.

Melissa Van Rossum is an accomplished psychic & empath, & the author of two books. In her first book, All You've Ever Known, she shares a process that deepens your intuition & awakens your soul to a happier, more successful and authentic life.

In Their Way Home, My Adventures as a Ghost Guide Melissa offers revealing perspective as she shares for the first time the very personal stories of her encounters with real life ghosts who searched her out in their quest to find a way back home, and how she helped them to cross over in to the Light. Plenty of books have been written about ghost sightings but in this book Melissa shares the stories behind why these souls chose to linger on the earth plane and how you can live a happier life by learning from the mistakes they made in life...and in death.

Melissa regularly speaks to the media & groups on topics such as How to Create the Life of Your Dreams, Ghosts and The Paranormal, and What Happens After You Die. You can learn more about Melissa and her books at http://www.allyouveeverknown.com and http://www.theirwayhome.com.

Apparitions and Kids Who See Ghosts

I have a physic grandson named Sidney, for whom I wrote The Sid Series ~ A Collection of Holistic Stories for Children. There was a time when Sidney was in my house. He was about four or five years old. We were sitting together in front of the computer when I asked him to go and retrieve something from another room in the house. He got up and started toward the door and then just stopped short.

I said, “Sidney, what is it? Do you see something?”

“Who is that?” he replied.

Oh, dear. I knew he had seen something—probably the spirit of a little boy that I had seen flash through my foyer just days before Sidney’s visit. “Is it a little boy?”

“Yes,” Sidney confirmed.

I said, “Well, he doesn’t belong here in our house. Let’s call upon archangels Michael and Chamuel and ask them to take this little boy into the light where he can find people who know him and love him?”

After a few moments, Sidney turned around smiling and said, “He’s gone!” Then he proceeded out the door like nothing strange had happened. That confirmed what I had suspected all along—Sidney could see in the spirit world.

Ghosts Moving Things in Your House

I was working with a client whose mother had been abusive to her. I’m a freelance writer and editor by trade. While editing Elizabeth’s book, I began to have some strange occurrences in my home. I awoke one Saturday morning to a thud. Something in my closet had fallen. Upon opening the door, I noticed my winter boot in the floor. This was strange because my boot had been in the top of the closet in a box with the flaps closed down. How it got out of the box and into the floor, to me, could only indicate the presence of an entity.

Knowing that I would have to deal with it—probably do a clearing with some sage, or some type of meditation, or calling on my guides—I decided to eat breakfast first. I joined my husband in the kitchen where I had a bowl of yogurt in a glass bowl. I had just finished the last bite when I noticed the drape in the dining room was cockeyed. I went to straighten the drape. I was standing in a chair and my husband was leaving the room when the bowl I had just finished eating my yogurt in exploded into about 25 pieces.

I knew I had an entity in the house so without further delay, I went into my mediation room, lit a candle and some sage, called on my guides, and asked the entity, “Who are you and what do you want?” She did not want me to write the book for my client because it was tattling on her and exposing her misdeeds done while in body. I sent the ghost on her way and tried to finish the book for the client. However, the client seemed to have disappeared. She did not answer my emails or return my phone calls and I do not know to this day what happened to her. I had no choice but to abandon the project.

Being Watched by a Ghost

The veil was thin that November day in 2010 when I was keeping my grandsons at their home. My son and his wife were away for a week celebrating their tenth wedding anniversary. Within a matter of hours of being the only adult in the house, I began sensing an ominous presence—especially whenever I was in the bedroom and or bathroom. It was eerie and I felt like I was being watched. I intuitively knew that the spirit was my daughter-in-law’s father. Perhaps “sperm donor” is a more fitting term for him. She never knew the man because he abandoned her family when she was about a year old. Since this was not my home and I didn’t know if my daughter-in-law wanted her father around in order to resolve some issue she might have with him, I set a boundary that would not allow his spirit to come near me, my grandsons, or their property as long as I was there. I let my daughter-in-law know about this when she returned and she immediately decided to maintain the boundary I had set.

There are times when a spirit has a personal message for me or another person. If I can deliver the message without causing discomfort to myself, I will try to do so. The veil was thin that November day before Amanda and my son returned home, Amanda’s mother, Kendra (“Nanna K” as her grandchildren called her), dropped by in spirit. I knew and loved Kendra and didn’t even have to ask who the spirit was. There was a lightness, warmth, and sense of love surrounding me as I heard her say, “I’m just dropping by to check on my babies. It’s good to see you here. Thank you for all you do for Amanda and the boys.” I related this message to Amanda, who received the news with tears of joy. Those are the times when I am glad I can consciously interact with spirits.

What Do Ghosts Want from Us?

As you start to clear your field and remove layers of unresolved karma under the blankets of your emotional disguise, you may find that some entities are actually asking for your help to cross into the light. If ghosts are finding you, and you are willing to help them cross over, either call upon Archangels Michael and Chamuel or send the ghosts to the nearest morgue or funeral home. They can go into the light with others who are crossing over. More than one soul at a time can use the tunnel of light created for the newly departed.

In When Ghosts Speak, Mary Ann Winkowski states that a portal of light is opened whenever someone dies and this window of opportunity remains open for a short while during which a soul can make a choice to go into the light or stay in the earth plane. Some wait too long to decide and therefore miss their chance to go into the light. Thus, they become earth bound.

Here are some of the reasons why some souls do not cross over when they first leave the body is because:

1.         They are attached to things such as jewelry, cars, houses, furniture, or places where they lived found comfort, or died
2.          They are busybodies who don’t want to leave
3.        They are seeking revenge or pursuing justice
4.         They fear judgment or punishment on the other side
5.          They want to protect the living

Mary Ann Winkowski is the consultant for the creators of the CBS show, The Ghost Whisperer, in which Jennifer Love Hewitt stars. The first time I saw this show, I cried for joy because finally someone had an explanation as to why souls were coming to me. I sensed they wanted help, but I didn’t know what to do for them. Even though I had sensed the presence of spirits all my life, I had no idea that I was a “ghost whisperer” (a.k.a. medium) as well as an empath. No wonder my life was so crazy while I was ignorant of these very important facts. Knowledge is power. As I learned to follow my own heart and develop spiritual intelligence, I began setting boundaries with these disembodied souls. I started calling upon angels, archangels, and my own spirit guides whenever a soul came to me for help. Archangels Michael and Chamuel can help these lost souls find a place of peace in the afterlife. At first, I visualized the soul leaving, but once I knew my effort was working, I relaxed and enjoyed my new-found privacy with the assurance that my “guidance team” was taking care of things.

How Do Ghosts Remain Active for Years?

Some people believe entities are conjured by human thoughts and fed by negative emotional energy. Some believe they are the unresolved karma or crystallization that was housed in the astral body of someone who has died and was not cremated. We know that fire and smoke are purifying agents. This is why many ancient cultures performed elaborate “last rites” (mainly to protect the living from the departing soul) and burned the physical body on a funeral pyre. This is said to dismantle the astral body and destroy its unresolved karma, which certainly can’t go into the Light with the pure soul essence. If this is true, then it explains why we have seen such a huge increase in violence, depression, and suicide since embalming and burial became the preferred method of disposing of a body.

Regardless of whether others think entities are real or imagined, if they bother you, then they exist for you and must be dealt with. I’m finding a lot of folks coming to me to talk about their plight in dealing with the energy of earthbound spirits. It seems people are suddenly becoming more able to we see, hear, feel, or sense their presence.

Most sources I’ve studied state that earthbound spirits must feed off of energy to remain active. They target humans who have a similar fixation as their own: drug or alcohol abuse, emotional indulgences, trauma, abuse, or someone who is ungrounded and not fully participating in their own spiritual development. When an earthbound spirit finds a human in a state of despair, having weak or no boundaries, the earthbound spirit attaches itself to the victim’s energy field.

A person with an entity attachment may also have their electromagnetic field contaminated with the negative energy. They will feel out-of-sorts, be filled with dysfunctional thoughts, rampant emotions, and have cravings that are not their own. The best way to keep these entities away is to raise your personal vibration, keep your aura close to your body, and remove negative or stuck energy so these beings are no longer attracted to you. Learn more in my book, Whose Stuff Is This? Finding Freedom from the Thoughts, Feelings, and Energy of Those Around You.

How to Detect the Presence of Ghosts and Other Spirits

By Nathaniel Webb

Haunting happens - it's more popular than many people would like to think. One of the practical aspects of every book that discusses ghosts and other paranormal activities, is a way to test if your house is haunted. In other words - how to detect the presence of ghosts and spirits? There are many ways to do so, that I'm going to describe right now.

Cold Spots

One of the most popular phenomenons regarding haunting and ghosts is called "cold spots". As the name states, those are the spots of cold air that can be sensed out of nowhere. Imagine that you're walking through warm corridor, and suddenly you can sense cold space. You're making few steps forward, and it's warm again. You're going back, and cold spot is still there. It is believed for cold spots to be places where ghosts and spirits draw psychic energies to sustain their own "life" energies. Just be careful not to consider air-conditioner for paranormal activity, please.

Sensing the Presence

Another way to detect the presence of ghosts would be to literally sense a presence of someone or something, when physically there's no one around - no people, no animals. Like you stand in the kitchen, and out of no where you can sense there's someone else in the room - you're looking around, but there is nothing but dinner on the table.

Mood changes

Ghosts and spirits, depending on their nature, can change mood in single room, or whole room. Imagine that you're watching good comedy in TV and suddenly you want to cry - it might suggest there's some sad spirit in the room. Spirits and ghosts can also create happy mood, or negative or even aggressive emotions.

Objects moving

Some intelligent spirit (meaning conscious ghosts) can move objects with invisible means. Different items might disappear and then appear in completely other place, or ghosts might also move things while you watch them (it's quite an interesting view, I have to admit).

Those are active ways of detection. You can also detect ghosts with passive means, this is - by assuming that things like weird shadows, or astral lights might suggest a presence in the building. Sometimes also nightmares, or obsessive thoughts, and finally weird behaviours of animals might suggest some paranormal activity in your house.

As you can see, there are quite a few methods of detecting the presence of ghosts and spirits. Keep them in mind, but remember to remain skeptical - not every air-conditioner is ghost.

There’s a Ghost in Our House. Can We Keep Him?

by Yvonne Perry

American people have a great interest in the subject of the paranormal and especially ghosts. Ghost Whisperer and Medium are very popular TV shows and millions each week view Sci-Fi, Discovery, and Travel channel that air documentaries about ghosts and psychic phenomena.

Approximated one-third of Americans believe in ghosts, and twenty-three percent say they have interacted with a ghost. The truth is ghosts, angels, spirit guides, and entities are around us all the time. Their impact on us and our lives is unmistakable, but we have been taught to disbelieve in them or ignore their presence during our normal waking consciousness. If we do have a supernatural experience and share our story with others, we may be told it is only our imagination. Some people may think we are crazy.

Ghosts live in the world of subtle energy, which seems to exists outside of our physical world and beyond the range of our five senses. However, ghosts can and do interact with our physical world and have been known to open doors, hide things, make noise, move furniture, and turn electronic equipment on and off. If you have a ghost in your home, you can either banish it or you can allow your otherworldly visitor to stay. After all, ghosts are people who were formerly alive and breathing but no longer have a physical body. Like those of us in body, each ghost has a distinguishing personality. Some are loving and some are not. Others are looking for help, reassurance, or guidance. Most disembodied souls are too frightened to take their next step in the afterlife. Your coaching these “lost” souls may help them find peace and confidence to cross over into the light.

If you decide to allow a ghost to be part of your family, you must be clear about your rules, boundaries, and limitations. Let the ghost know it will have to leave if your rules are not followed. If your ghost is causing disturbances in your home, or if its behavior threatens your safety or the safety of others, or you/your family feel afraid of it, then it is time to have it move on.

Knowing how to ignore the presence and avoid the influence of entities and environmental energy can be a good thing for those who are so energy sensitive that they see, feel, and hear in another dimension much of the time. These people, known as empaths, are described in Whose Stuff Is This? Finding Freedom from the Detrimental Thoughts, Feelings, and Energy of Those Around You. An empath is sensitive to what is obvious as well as unseen things such as ghosts and the thoughts, emotions, and illnesses they sense around them. Empaths may get hunches, see mental pictures, hear voices, or have a gut feeling that supplies hidden information about people and situations. They may also get a physical sensation in their body that lets them know where another person is afflicted or suffering.

The Influence Ghosts Have upon Human Emotions

by Yvonne Perry

An entity is anything that feeds off your energy or emotions. It can be a thought form, an energy pattern, or a soul tie (a hook to or an attachment from one or more persons), or an earthbound spirit. Some people believe entities are conjured by human thoughts and fed by negative emotional energy. Regardless, of whether others think they are real or imagined, if they bother you, then they exist for you and must be dealt with.
Some entities can move objects and cause electrical disturbances, but they can’t physically harm you. They can influence you by infiltrating your thoughts; and their very presence may disrupt your energy field and cause emotional upsets. In fact, some of the negativity or detrimental energy you feel right now could actually be a result of an entity in your house or one that is attached to your energy field.

A portal of light is opened when someone dies and this window of opportunity remains open for a short while during which a soul can make a choice to go into the light or stay in the earth plane. Some souls cross over almost immediately, probably because they were spirituality evolved or had their “bucket list” checked off and all their loose ends tied up. Some souls fear they may be punished and take too much time deciding whether or not to cross over and go into the light. Thus, they become earth bound. Whatever beliefs, emotions, or knowledge a soul has when departing from the body is carried into the afterlife. Many times when a soul leaves the body abruptly, it is confused and may not cross over to the other side or go into the light.
Mary Ann Winkowski is the consultant for the creators of the CBS show, The Ghost Whisperer, in which Jennifer Love Hewitt stars. Mary Ann has seen and communicated with earthbound souls since she was four years old and is able to create the light and give earthbound souls a second chance to cross over. In her book, she gives several reason why souls do not cross over immediately.

• They are attached to things such as jewelry, cars, houses, furniture, or places where they lived, found comfort, or died.
• They fear judgment or punishment on the other side
• They are seeking revenge or pursuing justice
• They want to protect the living
• They are busybodies who don’t want to leave

Some entities are spiteful and refuse to give up their attachment to the earthly realm. These earthbound spirits feed off of our energy and target humans who have similar fixations as their own: drug or alcohol abuse, emotional indulgences, trauma, or someone who is ungrounded and not fully participating in their own spiritual development. When an earthbound spirit finds a human in a state of dissension, having weak or no auric boundaries, the spirit may attach itself to the victim’s energy field. This is not a possession. I believe that only one soul can inhabit a body at a time, but a person with an entity attachment may feel out-of-sorts, have dysfunctional thoughts, emotions, and cravings that are not their own. You or someone in your family may be dealing with the energy of earthbound spirits regardless of whether you see, hear, feel, or sense their presence.

Knowledge is power. As you learn to follow your own heart and develop spiritual intelligence, you may feel the need to set boundaries with disembodied souls. That is not a difficult thing to do. Angels, archangels, enlightened beings of love, and your personal spirit guides are always ready and willing to help you with any request. Call upon archangels Michael and Chamuel to help earthbound spirits find a place of peace in the afterlife. Other methods to keep these entities away include raising your personal vibration, keeping your aura clear and close to your body, removing negative or stuck energy so these beings are no longer attracted to you.

The book I wrote with Dr. Caron Goode offers dozens of exercises to help clear and protect your personal aura or energy field. Learn more about WHOSE STUFF IS THIS? Finding Freedom from the Detrimental Thoughts, Feelings, and Energy of Those Around You at http://whosestuffisthis.com/ .

There are times when a spirit may have a personal message for you or another person. If you can deliver the message without causing discomfort to yourself or someone else, you may want to do so in order to help the soul find closure and move on. Whenever you sense an entity around you, ask it, “Who are you and what do you need?” If the spirit is not courteous enough to answer those two questions, it should not be permitted to stay in your presence. Using your intention or a visualization, set a boundary around your body, home, office, car, possessions, or children that serves as an impenetrable wall to keep that spirit away from you and your property. Some people use salt or herbs to cleanse an area and put up the protective barrier, but all rituals and prayers use the power of intention to shift energy.

Protect yourself from the depression, anxiety, fear, addictions, suicidal tendencies, phobias, relationship difficulties, and other problems caused by entity contamination. Stand in your power and do not allow a ghost to frighten you or your children.

Out of the Mouths of Babies!

Author Yvonne Perry is the paternal grandmother of a intuitive child named Sidney, who is now nine years old. Before Sidney started school, he would stay at his grandparents’ house some weekends. They did all kinds of fun things together.

One day when Sidney was with his grandmother (known as Von-Von), he kept repeating, “Hannah, Hannah, Hannah.”All day long he called the name. Yvonne said she felt like he was trying to give her a message, but she also thought he was too young to be channeling. At about nine months old, he wasn’t even talking more than a few words.

Finally curiosity got the best of her and Yvonne called Sidney’s mom, Amanda, hoping to get some more information. Amanda had a friend who a daughter named Hannah. Amanda and Hannah’s mom gave birth within a few weeks of one another but they lost touch a few months later. The last Amanda knew about her friend was that she had a drug problem. Amanda and Yvonne said a prayer of protection for Hannah while they were on the phone. Amazingly, Sidney stopped repeating the child’s name after that.

The next week Amanda received a call from someone who was still in touch with Hannah’s family. Hannah’s grandmother had taken custody of the child because Hannah’s mother had been neglecting the baby girl.

Sidney continued to show signs of being spiritually aware. When he looked at his grandmother, he would sometimes look beside her or over her and giggle. Yvonne sensed then that her grandson was able to see in the spirit realm. That belief was confirmed one day when Sidney was about four years old.

He was with Yvonne in her office when she asked him to another room in the house to get something for her. He jumped up and started toward the door. Then, all of a sudden he stopped and wouldn’t go another step. He backed up closer to where his grandmother was sitting.

“What’s wrong, Sid?” she asked.

“Von-Von, who is that?” He pointed toward the hallway. She intuitively knew what was happening because she had seen the spirit of young boy flash across her foyer several days prior.

“I’m not sure what his name is,” she said, “but he will not harm you. Let’s call upon Archangels Chamuel and Michael.” Yvonne pulled Sid into her lap. He was still staring at the doorway.

“Archangels Michael and Chamuel,” she said, “We have the spirit of a lost boy in our house. Please come and help him see the light and go to a safe place where he can find his friends and family. Thank you.”

“He’s gone,” Sidney said. Then, he slid off Von-Von’s lap and walked through the doorway without hesitation.

Yvonne began to write about their adventures and the next thing she knew, she had a collection of stories. She compiled them into one full-color print book and titled it The Sid Series ~ A Collection of Holistic Stories for Children. These twelve stories support intuitive children in the development of body, mind, and spirit. In the The Sid Series your child will:

• Learn about inner guidance through a garden visit with the fairies

• Face the fear of storms in a kayak on the Banana River

• Help a pirate find the real hidden treasure

• Find a ghost in Sid’s closet

• Use loving intention to heal a hurt puppy

Anna Maria Prezio Talks about Ghostbusting

Anna Maria Prezio joins LavendarRose on We Are One in Spirit Podcast to discuss why ghosts like to be around humans. Both Anna Maria and LavendarRose are empaths who interact with the spirit world in a loving and non-confrontational manner to create balance and well-being. You will enjoy hearing about some recent visitations LavendarRose had and how she set boundaries to keep one away and spent a few moments chatting with the ghost of a friend who came by to check on her grandson. Anna Maria will talk about how she clears houses of ghosts using feng shui.

Anna Maria Prezio, Ph.D., is a Certified Feng Shui Consultant, bestselling author and intuitive. She has studied with a multitude of feng shui masters and metaphysical gurus. She has devoted herself to helping others achieve optimum positive environmental energies. She has done this through hundreds of feng shui audits, readings and consultations on a local, national and international level.

Over many years of feng shui consultations, Anna Maria Prezio was able to make the connection between negative energy and the presence of ghosts in an environment. In her book she explain this radical concept in an easy–to-read practical guide on how to apply feng shui principles to ghost-busting.

Confessions of a Feng Shui Ghost-Buster is the result of a life-long journey that begins in a tiny village in Italy and has yet to truly end. To help you understand this journey – and benefit from the lessons learned along the way – the book is divided into three parts.

Part I will capture your attention with a ghostly first experience of an intuitive and vulnerable 6 year-old child. The culture and experiences of the author growing up in a rural and mystical village in Italy where ghostly occurrences and stories were part of every day life serve to set the stage for what would be a life long study of the mystical and the Divine.

Part II describes Feng Shui, like medicine, as both an art and a science. Here, the definitions and different sects of Feng Shui are discussed to provide a backdrop for the connection between environmental balance and the appearance of ghosts. You will learn how mastery of Feng Shui helps us to understand the occult, or hidden knowledge, as it applies to all aspects of our life here on earth.

With the formation of a solid foundation and understanding of this art and science, Part III delves deeper into the correlation between environment and entities with ideas, cures and stories about ghost-busting as a result the author’s direct and extraordinary experience.

This book – part memoir, part guide – promises to intrigue you from cover to cover. However, the price of admission to this world is an open mind. In return, you will not only better understand yourself, but the metaphysical world in which you live.

A Second Chance to Go into the Light

by Caron Goode

We all tend to by fascinated by what the afterlife holds. Do they cross over into the light? Do they go to a place called heaven or hell? Do they stay earthbound?

No one knows for sure what happens to people after they die, but some of the best answers to these questions comes from mediums who interact with ghosts. I have had some direct experiences that have given me first-hand information, and I have tapped into the other side many times in my intuitive work with clients over the years. Some are children, who give information that sheds light on this topic.

When we first leave the body, we retain the persona of that lifetime but eventually we cross over and get into our higher soul awareness that incorporates all the persona's we've had from all lifetimes.

From what I’ve read in When Ghosts Speak by Mary Ann Winkowski, the tunnel of light is opened at the moment of death and this window of opportunity remains open for a short while in which a soul can make a choice to go into the light or stay in the earth plane. Some people cross over almost immediately upon transitioning, probably because they were more spirituality evolved and had all their loose ends tied up. Others take too much time deciding and miss their chance and thus become earth bound.

Mary Ann is the consultant for the creators of the CBS show, The Ghost Whisperer, in which Jennifer Love Hewitt stars. Mary Ann has seen and communicated with earthbound souls since she was four years old and is known for being able to create the light and give earthbound souls a second chance to cross over. In her book, she gives several reason why souls do not cross over immediately:

• They are attached to things such as jewelry, cars, houses, furniture, or places where they lived, found comfort, or died

• They fear judgment or punishment on the other side

• They are seeking revenge or pursuing justice

• They want to protect the living

• They are busybodies who don’t want to leave

We have free will while in body on Earth, and we still have free will in the afterlife. So it’s really up to us to choose whether to cross over or stay earthbound. For souls who missed their first window of opportunity, Mary Ann says they can find a second chance at a funeral home, graveside service, or morgue where lies a body that has recently died. The passage of light that is there for that soul can be shared by other souls. This is good information to have if you are one who is visited by ghosts seeking help with crossing over.

Mommy, Who Is That Lady Standing Over There?

Most psychics and mediums I interviewed for my book, Kids Who See Ghosts, agreed that ghosts are the spirits of persons who have passed out of a body, but have not yet moved on to higher planes of consciousness. Those who see apparitions say ghosts present themselves in human form. Nature spirits (also called fairies, gnomes, elves, and leprechauns) are energy beings that children see and interact with, especially in their preschool years. Those who see them describe them as tiny creatures with seemingly translucent wings or a blinking little light with wings.

When a child sees an apparition she may ask something like, "Mommy, who is that lady standing over there?" or “What is that man doing in our house?"

Of course when adults try to see who the child is talking about they see no one, yet the child insists someone is there. They may also report seeing ghosts in their dreams, hearing things go bump in the night, having monsters under their bed, ghosts in the closet, or someone peeking in their window. This can be scary for adults as well as children. As a counselor, I know the worries parents have over helping their children feel safe in their own environment.

Don’t ignore your child's fears. It is important to her emotional development for you as a parent to eliminate such things as ghosts, monsters, and weird noises. Criticizing her about monsters or saying "there is no such things as ghosts” does not help her overcome fear. She will simply stop telling you about her experience, which may cause her even more stress.

One thing that will help reduce your child's fear is to show how calm you are about such things. Children take their cues from adults—especially their parents—and if we are upset about ghosts and strange noises, then our children will learn to fear those things too. Try to offer a logical explanation that the child can understand.

Regardless of whether or not you believe in ghosts, you can take charge of the situation. Smudge your house with sage to banish entities, do battle with the monster under the bed, or have a good, firm talk with the invisible man who keeps tapping at your child’s bedroom window. It might also help to turn on a night light in the child’s room, let her take a flashlight to bed, or play some soft music at night so she can’t hear ghostly activity.

Since science cannot prove nor disprove the existence of spirit beings, parents can’t honestly tell a child that ghosts or other spirit beings don't exist. Perhaps we should listen to our children and simply accept what they say they see.

Need Your Stories about Ghosts

I'm looking for stories about ghost encounters. 


Do you hear things during the night that you can explain?

Do you feel as if someone is watching you or that you are not alone when you walk into an empty room?

Have you ever thought you saw someone in your peripheral vision, but when you turn to look no one was there? You may have encountered a ghost—the spirit of a person who remained in the Earth plane after death.

Have items been mysteriously moved around in your house?

Have your lights or electronics turned on or off by themselves?


Were you the only one who smelled flowers, perfume, cigarette smoke, or other scents associated with a deceased individual?

Did you hear a voice or sound that no one else heard?

Have you been touched, tickled, stroked, or even shoved by a ghost?

Have you interacted or communicated telepathically with a disembodied spirit?

If you would like to share your experience in communicating with spirits, please contact me at writer @ YvonnePerry dot net.
