Energy Healing

Angels and Dementia

/

Rebecca from Buckinghamshire, England, asked:

Hi Julie,

My mother is in the very late stages of dementia and is bed bound. I care for her at home. 

She sleeps most of the day, but when she’s awake, she often has conversations with people I can’t see. Sometimes she mentions them by name and smiles and laughs. I cannot understand the conversations as she’s no longer very coherent. My mother also gasped at seeing our old pet dog, “Henry!” This is all from a woman who can no longer give names in “normal” conversation.

It brings me great comfort, as I think she’s obviously straddling different realms. She’s been seeing these visitors for quite a few months. At times she seems to look in awe (possibly angels?). 

Do you know how the transitions work with dementia? 

I have a private reading booked with you but it’s not until January. 

Many thanks for your time.

Rebecca

Hi Rebecca,

Thanks for your note about your mom seeing angels, deceased relatives, and pets. I too find it comforting that we’re all surrounded by these spiritual entities as we transition from this life to Heaven.

Having dementia is of no consequence to the Twelve Phases of Transition™ process.

It has been my experience we all go through the Twelve Phases of Transition™ as we’re dying. This is the case regardless of whether we die instantly like in a homicide or suicide, or like your mom, over a prolonged period of time. 

What may often be interpreted as a symptom of dementia or a hallucination, seeing deceased loved ones in dreams or visions at the end of life has now been validated with university-based research.

In his book Death Is But A Dream, Dr. Chris Kerr, a hospice director, reports his research showed close to 90% of the 1,400 patients studied reported just that.

In my Angelic Attendants: What Really Happens As We Transition From This Life Into The Next, I describe in detail how we’re surrounded by angels and deceased loved ones and pets as we’re dying.

My book addresses what your mom is experiencing from the spiritual perspective while Dr. Kerr’s book discusses the same findings from a medical/research point of view.

Your mom is currently in Phase 7 of the Twelve Phases of Transition™. She tells me she isn’t ready to go, isn’t in pain, and just wants to spend a bit more time with her family.

Hope this information provides some additional comfort to you as you go through this time. Look for little miracles along the way. You’ve been given one already just knowing your mom is surrounded by angels and deceased loved ones.

P.S. – Regarding our January appointment, periodically check for earlier appointments by clicking on the “reschedule” button on your confirmation email. Clients often reschedule.

Finding Our Purpose

/

Monica from Lisbon, Portugal, asked:

Hi Julie,

I’ve always had a strong desire to search for answers to what my mission is in this world, on this planet.

At the age of 35, I am exhausted trying to find my purpose, what I’m good at and what I should do for living. 

Please help me.

Thank you.

Monica

Hi Monica,

Thanks for your question. It’s one I’m often asked.

Most of us believe we should know our purpose in life and know a route that will direct us to a destination of total fulfillment.

Hate to break it to you, but life doesn’t work that way. No wonder you’re exhausted trying to find a path that doesn’t exist. The missing link here, is, we create our purpose/destiny one step at a time as we progress through life.

Every spirit incarnates to have the human experience and that boils down to exploring and experiencing all life has to offer.

Furthermore, each spirit comes in with a very generalized script of something it wants to create. It may involve being a teacher.

As you can imagine, there are many ways to teach. It can be in a school, university, hospital, company, etc. The options are endless and may involve multiple scenarios in a lifetime (e.g., a schoolteacher becomes a corporate educator).

We create our purpose/destiny as we go through life by following where we’re led.

Pay attention to what you find interesting, enjoyable, and just plain fun. That’ll be your clue to figuring out your next step. Use your feelings to guide you. If something feels bad in any way (boredom, anxiety, fear, etc.), that’s your spirit letting you know you’ve veered off course. Think of emotion as an internal GPS we all possess.

One last thing, it’s impossible to make a mistake. Everything always unfolds perfectly in our lives and benefits us in some way. Knowing what we don’t want helps us create what we do want.

Enjoy the adventure!

Will Baby Reincarnate

/

Hi Julie,

I recently lost a baby 2 months into my pregnancy and was wondering if the spirit of my little baby will ever resume its place in my body in the next pregnancy?

Thanks,

Mirabai

Hi Mirabai,

Great question. One I’m frequently asked.

It has been my experience during the several decades of doing this work that your unborn baby’s spirit is around you and you can communicate with it anytime you wish.

In addition, it’s my understanding that although it’s spirit won’t reincarnate into your life this time around, it’s highly likely it will in a future lifetime.

Your baby’s little spirit may be your parent, sibling, friend, colleague, acquaintance or may play any one of a multitude of roles in future lifetimes with you.

My condolences to you and your family.

Hope this answers your question.

Energy Field Membrane

/

Marci asked:                     

Hi Julie,

I saw your presentation for Helping Parents Heal. Luckily, I have not lost a child. I am agnostic and watch a lot of these videos to learn and grow.

You described the energy fields of the body being like saran wrap and holding the spirit in. I’m an autopsy assistant and have often thought the body looks like it is held together by cellophane. I’ve also thought how amazing it is we don’t fall apart being held together by a thin membranous cellophane.

Your description of what you called the energy field membrane struck me as such a similar comparison to what I observe that I felt urged to connect with you about it.

Please explain once again, how the membrane ruptures and causes an energy leak that inevitably contributes to poor health.

I am going to explore your site and learn more about you. The way you describe healing the body resonates with me and I’m eager to learn more.

Have a great day!

Marci

Hi Marci,

Thanks for watching my Helping Parents Heal presentation. What a terrific service that organization does to comfort and inform parents who’ve lost a child.

Thanks too, for your comments about what I call the energy field membrane. It sounds like we’re sensing the same thing.

The energy field membrane is the container that holds the energy comprising our body and spirit.

It’s my perception the body is inside the spirit and the spirit is the power source for the body. That’s why when a person dies and their body and spirit separate, the body doesn’t work any longer.

If you think about it, all energy used to power something specific (like a body), needs to be in some type of container. Electricity is contained in wires, natural gas in pipes, and a body and spirit are in an energy field membrane.

When I “see” (in my mind’s eye) a tear or hole in the energy field membrane, I envision going into the opening and I’m shown a scene of an emotional event that has occurred either in this or a past lifetime.

I’ll be given specific information such as when, where and some details about what happened. It could be something relatively minor or something tragic and it doesn’t matter whether my client remembers the event.

The experience identified has caused an energy block to form and other life events’ energy has piled on top of it causing enough pressure to create a rupture in the energy field membrane. Energy leaks always precede any kind of medical condition and are caused by an emotional event.

Once the cause of the energy block is illuminated, it’s immediately eradicated and the membrane instantly heals. This allows the body to return to operating on full power thus helping the person restore and maintain health.

To learn more, please consider enrolling in my Angelic Attendant Training. You’ll learn how to do (among other things), energy healings, communicate with spirits and angels, do past life scans and communicate and heal animals. It will also greatly enhance your life and the lives of everyone you encounter.

A Widow’s Inspiration

/

Caroline from Glasgow, Scotland, asked:

Hi Julie,

February 18th was the 7th anniversary of my husband’s death.

He took his own life and I was left with massive financial challenges and was widowed in a horrific way.

In addition, I lost both parents and five friends within the space of 6 years.

I have a deep faith but having to deal with all of this makes me feel overwhelmed.

It’s time to move on but I feel at such a loss right now so I prayed to God for guidance and asked for a sign. Your name came into my mind.

I’m trusting your good heart will reach mine.

Thank you, Julie.

Caroline xx

Hi Caroline,

My goodness, you’ve certainly been through a lot in the last few years. I completely understand your wish to move on and create a new life for yourself.

With that in mind, here are a few thoughts and concepts that may help.

First, it’s important to remember we all choose, where, when, how and who if anyone is with us when we die, even when it’s horrendous, like in the case of your husband’s death.

Next, although it’s virtually impossible for us to make sense of a situation like that, it’s also important to remember, our spirit comes in with an expectation of what it wants to experience in this lifetime.

In a past life, it’s feasible your husband was the spouse of, child of, parent or friend of someone who committed suicide and, in this life, wanted to experience what it felt like to be the person who died in that manner. Likewise, the same goes for you. Perhaps you committed suicide in a past life and wanted to explore it from the perspective of the person left behind to pick up the pieces.

Furthermore, we create what we want from knowing what we don’t want. In other words, conflict, in whatever form, helps us clarify what we want in our lives.

We all have the ability to create whatever we desire by focusing on the end result. When we try to control how something is going to happen, we limit our experiences and often negate a better outcome in the process. When, however, we trust everything is unfolding perfectly, we’re given the information we need at the perfect time.

You obviously receive guidance from God (spirit) and know to follow it. Congratulations, that’s the hardest part of the manifestation process. That is, receiving messages and taking action.

Guidance will come to you as a thought in your head. When you ask for assistance from God, your angels, spirit guides, deceased loved ones, whomever, a response will come into your head within a second. If you think about it for more than a couple seconds, that’ll be your brain talking to you.

In addition, when you get a thought and fear arises, ask yourself if you took that action, would it kill you in the next two minutes. If so, don’t do it. If not, take the step. Then you’ll be given more guidance. Take it one step at a time and you’ll be led to where you want to go.

Please consider reading my book Angelic Attendants: What Really Happens As We Transition From This Life Into The Next. I believe you’ll find it informative, inspiring and comforting.

Sending big hugs your way.

Healing Endometriosis

/

Amy from Sligo, Ireland, asked:

Hi Julie,

Hope you are well. I just listened to your podcast with Sandra Rea on her Fiercely Spiritual podcast.

I am certainly going to book an appointment with you for a private session and in the meantime, would love to know if you can detect anything and/or do a healing on my reproductive system.

I’m currently trying to live with and help my body heal from endometriosis. Chronic flare-ups cause intense physical pain and bring me stress around fear about my fertility.

Thanks for any insights you can offer.

Amy

Hi Amy,

Thanks for your question and for listening to Sandra and me on her show.

The American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG), defines endometriosis as a condition in which the type of tissue that forms the lining of the uterus (the endometrium) is found outside the uterus. Endometriosis can result in excessive bleeding, pelvic pain and in some cases infertility. Many women with endometriosis have no symptoms.

Women’s global health expert and OB/GYN, Christiane Northrup, MD, says, “Endometriosis does not cause infertility, but is felt to be a contributing factor. Whatever is causing the endometriosis symptoms may also be responsible for the infertility, but one does not cause the other.”

In order to get some information for you, I energetically connected to you in Ireland and could see (in my mind’s eye) a fair amount of endometrial tissue outside of your uterus and on your ovaries and fallopian tubes. Next, I watched (again in my mind’s eye) an energetic healing in which a laser was used to eliminate it. The remaining charred tissue was then removed and left a normal-looking reproductive system.

Although outpatient laparoscopic procedures are commonly used to diagnose and remove rogue endometrial tissue, research is showing eating processed foods high in unhealthy fats and sugar may be a contributing cause of endometriosis and exacerbate inflammation and pain. With that in mind, I recommend reading Why We Get Sick by Benjamin Bikman, PhD, in which Dr. Bikman discusses the role diet plays in healing endometriosis and lots of other medical conditions.

Hope you feel better and find this information helpful.

Caregiver Strategies

/

Trish from Windsor, CT, asked:

Hi Julie,

My elderly mother has been living with my husband and me and while caring for my mom has been a privilege, it has also been quite tiring for us.

Throughout her life, my mom has showed great determination and strength of will (which is probably why she has reached this remarkable old age). Although I’ve seen changes in my mom and know that she is weakening, I also feel like she is struggling to hang on. Maybe there is something that she needs that she is not expressing to me.

I’m experiencing many emotions. While I love my mother and want to help her to the end, I miss my life with my husband and want to enjoy time with him and more freely visit and spend time alone with our adult children. Also, since I left my career to take care of my mom, I sometimes feel a loss of myself.

If I only knew what our future holds, I feel like I could either relax into our current situation and treasure this remaining time with my mom or, make some changes that would enable me to care for her and not feel like I’m losing time with the rest of my family.

Can you tell me how I can help my mom and what phase of transition (if any) she’s in?

Thank you,

Trish

Hi Trish,

Sounds like you have your hands full and are experiencing what a lot of people with elderly parents are facing.

A May 2020 Report conducted by the National Alliance For Caregiving (NAC) and the American Association of Retired Persons (AARP), shows 53 Million, almost one in every five Americans, are caregivers for an elderly parent or in-law. And, most if not all of them experience the emotions you mentioned (including guilt).

Douglas Wolf, PhD, a professor of aging studies at Syracuse University claims, “If you have a parent who needs help and you’re not providing help, then your mental health score goes down. If you have a parent who needs help and you do provide help, your mental health score goes down. It’s no worse to be a caregiver than to not be a care-giver.”

So, what can you and those caring for an elderly loved one do?

Here are ten coping strategies for caregivers from agingcare.com:

1. Respite – If possible, plan a weekly break.

2. Research Caregiver Resources – Contact your Area Agency on Aging for information on federal, state and local programs that may be able to provide financial assistance or other services that can reduce your caregiver stress levels.

3. Set Boundaries – It’s okay to say no when you don’t want to do something.

4. Accept Your Limitations – Focus on things you can affect and let go of anything you can’t change.

5. Get Organized – Prioritize, make lists and establish a daily routine. Divide large tasks into smaller, more manageable ones and learn to delegate.

6. Communicate – Stay in touch with family members, friends and outside resources and ask for help when needed.

7. Seek Caregiver Support – Join a support group for caregivers like Caregiver Action Network, Family Caregiver Alliance, National Alliance for Caregiving or Parenting Our Parents. In addition, there are many online options including ones covering a specific disease like Alzheimer’s or Parkinson’s.

8. Stay Active – Do what you can to get some exercise. Even a short walk can help you lessen stress and maintain or improve your own health.

9. Attend to Your Own Physical and Mental Health – Eat as healthy a diet as possible and make sure to add something fun to each day. Read a book, watch a movie or adopt a new hobby.

10. Take Time Off Work – Like you did, consider taking a break from your job. Eligible employees covered under the federal Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA) may be able to take up to 12 weeks of unpaid leave per year to care for an immediate family member.

As I’m writing this, your mom is in Phase 4 of the Twelve Phases of Transition. As I describe in Angelic Attendants, this means her spirit is out of her body and attached to the top of her head in what looks like a cartoon caption bubble. In addition, she is surrounded by a horseshoe of angels that her deceased parents are anchoring. Your mom told me she isn’t ready to go, is in occasional pain and she needs a sweater.

Hope all this information provides you with some helpful resources and information as well as comfort!

Addiction Gene

Laura from Albany, NY, asked:

Hi Julie,

I found you when you were interviewed on the Inspire Nation show and have been so enjoying your podcast ever since.

In addition, I just purchased your book, Angelic Attendants, and am looking forward to diving in!

I was wondering if you could help me “cut the cords” for my desire to drink. My father passed away at the age of 52 from cirrhosis of the liver and I swore I would NEVER find myself on a similar path. But 12 years post-divorce, here I am at the age of 54, drinking MUCH more than I want to, on a nearly nightly basis.

It’s something that I feel deep shame about and I truly believe my drinking is keeping me from being who I came here to be.

I took a 10-month class from a wonderful spiritual teacher and had some really magical, mystical experiences. I’d like to continue developing these abilities and begin to work toward my life purpose. Maybe I chose to have this love/hate relationship with alcohol in my Life Plan but I SO want to be done with it!

My partner says he will never not drink, so removing alcohol from my home is not an option. I hope that you can help me. Is there some sort of a desire for alcohol switch you can flip to OFF?!

Many thanks, for your beautiful work! I’m so happy I found you and hope to take your training in the future.

Much love,

Laura

Hi Laura,

Thanks for listening to my show and for reading Angelic Attendants. I hope you find it informative, comforting and heartwarming.

Regarding your questions around excessive drinking and finding yourself emulating your father, turns out you’re absolutely right! There is a polymorphism (genetic variation) of the DRD2 gene found to be associated with alcoholism and other substance abuse disorders including cocaine, nicotine, opioid dependence and obesity.

An article titled, Addiction and its reward process through polymorphisms of the D2 dopamine receptor gene reports that in an effort to compensate for deficiencies of the brain, one form of the DRD2 gene, the A1 allele, renders the dopamine system inefficient and rewards substance abuse that increases brain dopamine levels. In essence, people with this gene can have a super sensitivity to addictive stimuli.

In addition, an article titled, Neurogenetics of dopamine receptor super sensitivity about addiction relapse, said, “We propose that low D2 receptor density and polymorphisms of the D2 gene are associated with risk for relapse of substance abuse, including alcohol dependence, heroin craving, cocaine dependence, methamphetamine abuse, nicotine sensitization, and glucose craving.”

Is there a genetic component to addiction? Well, some researchers believe there is and addiction sure seems to run in families. Is it nature or nurture? Probably both.

As a sugar addict with alcoholism in her family, I believe I too have this DRD2 polymorphism in my gene pool mix and although I did a DNA healing on myself, what finally worked for me was to completely give up sugar almost three years ago.

You’ll never be able to totally avoid being around alcohol just like I can’t avoid being around sweets. We can however, limit it in our homes. You’ll figure out a way.

In the meantime, I did a DNA healing on you and suggest you consider talking with a licensed addiction specialist who can assist you. A good place to begin your confidential search is at the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA), an agency within the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS). Another good resource is the therapist finder at Psychology Today.

You are absolutely on your life’s path and it includes an experience on the addiction adventure. Trust you’ll be led to the people you need who will act as your tour guides.

Weight Issues

/

Jolene from Oviedo, FL, asked:

Hello Julie, 

I have been following you for a long time and have read your Angelic Attendants book. It really helped me a lot.

For the past three years I’ve been struggling to lose this excess weight and build back up my confidence.

Is there stuck energy in my body somewhere? Is it inflammation from my food? Is it something in my subconscious that keeps me stuck? What is it???

Please help. I am so desperate!

Thanks,

Jolene

Hi Jolene,

Thanks for your kind comments and for reading Angelic Attendants.

As someone who’s had a lifelong struggle with excess weight, I completely understand your frustration.

In order to get some information for you, I energetically connected to you and saw (in my mind’s eye) lots of inflammation in your body. Research shows inflammation is the main cause of both illness and extra weight.

Focusing on how I feel when eating certain foods, makes the choices a lot easier for me. This includes completely giving up sugar a couple years ago when I finally realized how addictive it was for me. Now, make no mistake, I still want sugar, I just don’t eat it anymore. (Not even cake at my son Jonathan’s wedding!)

A few books that have educated and helped me and may help you are:

The Bulletproof Diet by Dave Asprey

Why We Get Sick by Benjamin Bikman, PhD

Eat Smarter: Use The Power of Food by Shawn Stevenson

My personal motto is, if God made it, eat it and if man made it, I do my best to avoid it.

Take it one day at a time and trust your body to most importantly, heal itself while you get smaller.

Good luck!
