Tonight was my first group at home after five weeks in the library.

I noticed a difference straight away in the atmosphere of the group being at my home.  They were more relaxed and more responsive spiritually.

I know I am not the only person who felt this as I had comments after from some of the group members saying it was "the best so far" and "the mood of the group was more energetic and uplifted".

We started with quite a long talk from me which hopefully was inspired and not just me rambling on.

We started with our usual opening meditation which brings about all manner of awareness for our group members which are then shared after or shared with me at another time.  This was followed by me teaching them a new way to work spiritually.  At the end I wanted to leave the group with something physical from the spirit world.  To do this we had a tumbler which we asked spirit to move to certain answers.  As usual the spirit world didn't let us down and moved about answering correctly to their relatives that were in the group.

Tonight we had tears, laughter and a chance to stop for a minute and think about how we feel and how others feel.  Which is something that is ignored as we rush through our every day lives. 

Working with this group makes me feel inspired by your experiences and enthusiasm and for that I thank you all. 

Saturday 20th April 2008

I happened to be listening to 80’s tunes on the radio which remind me of my teenage years.  So I was feeling young and carefree again whilst listening to these songs and strangely more energetic.  Realistically I was still in my 36 year old body doing a boring job but these songs were stirring up an emotion inside me that made me feel I was still that young teenager.

I remember one of the first spiritual development classes I did where I was trying to explain clairsentience to everyone by using music and that is what this situation reminded me of.

Clairsentience for anyone that doesn’t know is one of the three clairs mediums use to connect with spirit.  There is clairaudience where you hear spirit, clairvoyance where you see spirit and clairsentience where you feel spirit.

Clairsentience seems to be the predominant clair for most mediums so I felt it was important for the group to understand how they can feel spirit coming close to them and I did this by using emotion provoking music.  It was quite a difficult task to do because sometimes the emotions you feel from hearing a song are quite personal.  For instance there are songs that make you feel sad because they remind you of a person you have lost or there are songs that remind you of when you are young.  There are even songs that make you feel quite loving (if you know what I mean).  I bet if you think about it there is a song for nearly every emotion you feel.  This was my point.

Before spirit come close to you, you are just feeling your normal self then, just like when an emotion provoking song comes on, spirit come close and change your feelings to how they were, what they were and how they felt.

It’s such a subtle feeling that most people ignore it but if you just take notice of your self and how you feel and how that feeling changes suddenly without any need for it to happen.  You will notice how our loved ones in the spirit world are around us so much more.
