our level of evolution. We also have an opportunity to understand our soul’s choices,

including why we chose a particular time and place of birth, body, parents, life experi-

ences and challenges, financial conditions, and so forth. This chakra contains our soul

programs regarding our physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual experiences.

By clearing and regenerating your soul chakra, which transmits information from

one reality into another, you can ensure that you learn and assimilate the appropriate

lessons and experiences you have come to understand. Thus, make new and

empowering choices, which uplift you and humanity at large. Here, you become aware

that there is truly only one of us, so anything that affects you influences others and vice

versa. The more you connect to this chakra, the more you will feel like being of service

to others and making a difference from your heart and soul.

By continually working with the soul chakra, you can access the knowledge of your

soul destiny and receive inspiration about the steps you need to take to fulfill your life

purpose.

Your guides and angelic helpers often make their presence known to you during

meditations or visions when you are in tune with this chakra.

When you explore your soul chakra and higher levels of consciousness you move

out of linear reality and draw synchronicities, miracles, and mystical experiences into

your life.

Process for Clearing Your Soul Chakra

Crystal to work with—Gold with Quartz

Rub your hands together vigorously for about a minute. Place your palms next to each

other without touching. You will most likely feel a tingling sensation. Visualize holding

a gold ball of energy between your hands. Focus on this ball of energy and allow it to

intensify. Play with this color for about thirty seconds, exploring how far you can

extend this energy by widening the distance between your hands.

Place your hands at arm’s length above your head. Take slow, deep breaths and

inhale this gold light.

Visualize the gold light moving through your chakra and beginning to clear and

dissolve any density and rejuvenate your soul chakra. Visualize the gold light moving

through all your chakras like a light rain.

Say: “Divine Healing Intelligence, please help me release any negative, limiting, and

disempowering beliefs that I may carry about who I am and my self-worth. Help me

reconnect to my Divinity and soulfulness. Assist me in hearing my spiritual guides and

helpers and let me learn any lessons I am here to discover. Show me that my challenges

are really blessings in disguise and help me find peace. Thank you.”

Repeat the word “CLEAR” several times with the intention of releasing any nega-

tivity and amplifying any positive aspects.

Relax your arms and close your eyes. Take slow deep breaths and allow yourself to

meditate and slow down. Remind yourself that you are not alone and ask your spiritual

helpers to assist you to resolve whatever challenge you are facing. Some people feel or

see the helpers easily; others may need more time to open up and trust. Remember,

your spiritual helpers love you unconditionally and have infinite patience. They only

want to help you. Keep strengthening your connection with them and be open to

receive the answers you are looking for, even if these arrive in a different package than

what you had expected.

Helping Each Other to Heal

By understanding and clearing your chakras, you not only work with energy that can

help you heal your body, but you also simultaneously transform how you live your life.

Deepak Chopra in his book, Reinventing the Body, Resurrecting the Soul, states,

“The biggest excitement centers on finding new genes, matching them with specific

disease, then trying to manipulate or splice them before harm is done to the body. Yet

the start should have been energy, because germs and genes, like any object, are

reducible to energy, and therefore all harm caused to the body is traceable to this fun-

damental force.”4

I am always really impressed at the end of each Visionary Intuitive Healing® work-

shop I teach, when I see people tuning in to each other’s chakras and accessing

important and often astonishingly accurate information about the state of each other’s

physical, mental, and emotional well-being.

It is even more thrilling to see people helping each other heal longstanding

physical, emotional and mental patterns and pain by gently working with the chakra

system. Below is a healing experience, shared by Adam, who attended several of my

Visionary Intuitive Healing® workshops. Adam had never done any type of healing

work before coming to my seminars. It is impressive to note that Adam was able to see

images that he could interpret and share with Monica, and help her not only heal her

physical pain and release a lot of emotional stagnation but also to free her mother, who

had passed over.

Adam’s Story: Tuning in and Helping Monica Heal

I am a fashion designer, and I use Visionary Intuitive Healing® every day for

my personal well-being and balance. I also do healings for family or friends

who specifically ask for help. Recently, a close friend asked me if I would

see Monica, her cousin, who was having a very difficult time.

When I saw Monica, she was visibly in a lot of pain; her neck and shoul-

ders were very sore. She had been living on painkillers for months, but they

no longer helped, and although an osteopath had managed to alleviate the

pain temporarily, it returned a few days later. She was also plagued by

stomach cramps and digestive problems, which often prevented her from

eating and sleeping.

When I tuned in to her throat chakra, I saw a thick harness made of

dense black bands attached to her neck with a thick chain that was pulled

tight. All her energy was being pulled backwards, leaving her feeling as if

she was about to keel over.

When I tried to ease the tension on the chain, I saw that it was held by

an elderly lady and I clearly heard the word, “mother.” Three smaller chains

were attached from the throat chakra to the second chakra in the stomach

area, which was surrounded by a heavy grey mist. I saw an image of Monica

as a small child huddled in a corner with no mouth, which I felt symbolized

her feeling like she had no voice to express herself.

I explained to Monica what I was seeing, and she confirmed that her

mother had passed away as a result of a protracted illness two years previ-

ously. Monica had nursed her to the end. Her mother had been a formidable

force in Monica’s life, dominating and often preventing her from making her

own choices.

I asked Monica to thank her mother, say goodbye, and visualize her

leaving. I then connected to her mother’s energy and asked her to drop the

chain and release Monica, which she did relatively quickly.

Monica’s mother then turned around and slowly vanished.

Next, I visualized the harness around Monica’s neck falling away and

manually unwound the remaining coils of black energy. Clear energy began

to flow down through her throat chakra toward her stomach. I removed the

chains which were between her throat and sacral chakras.

Next, I saw a large knot of black density lodged in her intestines. I visu-

alized an orange light dissolving the knot, until it dissipated and energy

could flow down through her intestines. I asked Monica to imagine orange

energy flowing from her head to her feet, spreading beneath her like roots

growing into the earth, then to visualize red energy flowing back up from

the earth and through her body.

After she did that, she could immediately turn her head from side to

side and was in slightly less pain. Two weeks later, she called to say that for

three days following the healing she had cried incessantly but the pain in

her neck, shoulders, and stomach had gradually subsided and disappeared.

Monica also told me that she now felt a sense of lightness and freedom

that she could not remember ever feeling.

How You Can Use Your Thoughts and

Emotions to Improve Your Health

How do our thoughts and emotions affect our health? I am a very emotional person

and often get overwhelmed by heavy thoughts and feelings, which I don’t know

how to deal with. Is there a simple process I can use to release difficult emotions?

Ibelieve that the softest way to heal, although not always easy, is to understand what

emotions and energetic patterns are stored in your body and then work to release

them with ease and grace. By acknowledging your feelings, changing the way you view

past traumas, connecting to your inner wisdom, working with Divine Energy and repro-

graming your nervous system, you can free yourself from the toxic effects of negative

unconscious beliefs and draining emotions and embark on a path toward wholeness.

Don’t wait until you are sick to start connecting to and listening to your body.

I encourage you to create a daily wellness plan, which includes meditation, exercise,

healthy eating, rest, fun, and laughter. Please refer to the appendix at the end of the

book for guidelines on how to create an ongoing life wellness practice.

Emotions and Disease

The link between unresolved negative emotions and disease is undeniable. Scientific

research has shown that while negative thoughts, beliefs, attitudes, and emotions

SeLife_interior_pgs 61–144_Layout 1 3/29/13 12:28 PM Page 88

weaken the nervous and immune systems, positive emotions release endorphins and

build health. Emotions such as depression, fear, anger, disappointment, unworthiness,

worry, stress, sadness, hate, jealousy, and irritation can lead to headaches, colds,

addiction, allergies, bloating, back pain, asthma, and cancer.

On a physical level, our emotions can literally alter our cell biology and therefore

have a profound effect on our well-being. Toxic feelings and thoughts lead to a toxic

body, while positive, healthy thoughts and attitudes relax our bodies, giving us more

energy and zest for life.

This is not to say that all illness or sickness only comes from emotional issues, or

that we can always heal just by dealing with our feelings. There are many different fac-

tors that can contribute to someone being unwell, including their environment, genetic

predisposition, karma, beliefs, childhood experiences, ancestral and past-life memories,

and any unhealthy lifestyle factors, like diet.

The other aspect many people don’t take into consideration is that we are energy

beings. Although it seems like we only have a physical body, any person trained in the art

of intuitive healing knows that we are multidimensional beings and have several energy

bodies. The energy bodies most easily recognized are the mental, emotional, etheric, and

astral, although there are more. Most people have an overdeveloped mental body that

contains feelings. Thus, when they are working on their emotions, they may think they

are clearing them deeply, when in fact they are just scratching the surface and changing

their thoughts about the emotion rather than releasing the emotion itself. In fact, one of

the ways you can recognize that someone is working on feelings in their mental body is

when they say, “I think I felt . . .” When you connect with your emotional body, you know

it, as you deeply feel what is going on in your body and your life. You might feel a huge

wave of sadness, cry, get angry, feel hurt, or even be happy and joyful. The problem is that

most people are so uncomfortable with their deepest feelings that they try to do anything

they can to suppress them and disconnect from the wisdom of their raw emotions.

Your emotional body is strongly linked with your immune, digestive, cardiovascular,

and nervous systems. When you push away your emotions, your emotional body can

become frozen or torn. If this happens, your immune system becomes greatly weakened,
