Dear Kim:
I am very familiar with Abraham-Hicks and the law of attraction, and therefore I have not watched the news for years, and try not to talk or listen to negative things such as sickness or disease. My theory is that if I do not give it attention and don't "take it in," I will not attract it. I have been interested in taking courses about homeopathy and acupressure, but then I think - no, I don't want to expose myself to this. I work with animals now, and when an owner tells me of a disease with their pet, I purposely try to not listen or learn about the disease. This is a huge issue for me. So, how does this work with people who heal? I do not want to cause myself, my family, or my pets to be ill. I find I am hearing about more and more sick people and animals - just today I had four more cases come up. So, I am thinking I am attracting this! I want to help, but I feel like I am making more ill! I feel like this contradicts everything I have worked so hard to learn!

Dear Jacqui:
To be an effective healer, you have to make your clients feel heard-which is not possible if you are refusing to listen to what they are trying to tell you in regard to their dis-ease. You are also giving the universe mixed messages: I want to be of service to others as a healer and attract the people and animals that I can help-but, at the same time, I do not want to be exposed to ill people or animals! Stating the obvious, may I submit to you that your job as a healer is to locate and properly identify dis-ease-whether it is an injury or an ailment-and then go about facilitating physical, emotional, spiritual, and mental wellness.
To do so, you have to work closely with the client to gain their trust-because you are the facilitator. Through your efforts, a person or animal can choose wellness, but not unless you are working together as a team. Assisting others in restoring complete wellness is the destiny that you have chosen in this lifetime. As you've discovered, you will not be able to carry out this work by remaining in a self-protective vacuum. You can be exposed to dis-ease without absorbing any of the energy associated with it. This ability will allow you to heal an unlimited scope of illnesses or injuries without developing or absorbing the physical condition yourself. Simply visualize a sieve, or filter, between you and the being you wish to heal. Imagine the filter acting as a deterrent against a dis-ease passing through to you, but allowing your beautiful healing energy to flow through to the lucky recipient unimpeded.

Dear Kim:
In Oct 2007, my father Juan passed away from a heart attack after being at the hospital for 20 days. Did he pass due to his heart? Or, did he pass due to the hospital's neglect? Is he resting in peace? Was it his time to go? This has bothered us since it happened. We have not been able to move on due to the loss of my Dad. We have no birthdays or holidays; it is so hard to be happy without him. I don't think we can ever enjoy our lives again.

Dear Zulma:
It is such a trauma when a loved one passes unexpectedly, and that certainly makes the transition so much harder to deal with. Because your questions revolve around your departed father, I took the liberty of channeling directly with him.
His comments: "It was my time to pass. Don't you remember...I had been saying that I wasn't going to be around much longer? I knew that it was my time. I wasn't happy to have passed away in the hospital, although I believe that made it easier for you, my family. Nothing related to my hospital stay caused my death. Let go of your suspicion and anger with the doctors and nurses. They did the best they could. My health was weakened after the heart attack, but I died of a stroke. My death was fast and painless. You have been a wonderful daughter and I am proud of the woman you have become, and how you take care of your family. I love you...you are one of my greatest blessings. Thank you for everything you did for me and all of the respect you showed me as your father. I want the family to celebrate again, like you used to when I was there. You loved the holidays, and I want you to have that enjoyment again. Think of my passing with joy, for I now live in heaven and my life is full of peace, comfort, and happiness. In my current spirit form, I spend time around all of my earthly family-I have not left you behind! I hear your prayers for me every day and I am grateful."

Dear Kim:
I attended an A.R.E. lecture last night with a woman who had attended one of your workshops in Virginia Beach. Your reading with her was spot on, and she has successfully followed your advice and is moving toward her life' work. I definitely feel the need to transform my life. For nearly fifty-five years I seem to have done what everyone else wanted, needed, or expected me to do. I've let others make decisions for me or I just "went along" to keep the peace. I recognize that I have played the victim here! I finally realize I have a choice, but am not practiced in choosing. I see people who seem to know early on just what they want and go for it (one of my sons is like that!). Occasionally I get excited about something (I had an idea that I wanted to volunteer at the winter Olympics in Vancouver, for example) but then the practicality of following through quickly extinguishes the idea. How do I know whether something is a true vision of a new life or just a crazy idea? I am currently pursuing writing classes and workshops, but my practical voice keeps saying that I have nothing to say. I often ask myself the question "What do I have a passion for?" but I am so out-of-touch with my essence that I can't even answer that! Would greatly appreciate your insight!

Dear Barbara:
You've done an extraordinary amount of soul searching and that takes emotional strength, courage, and spiritual resolve. Congratulations on all of your hard work! You could never have done this three years ago; are you aware of the amazing amount of ground you've covered recently? Before you say "it's about time!" keep in mind that many people never muster the courage to really examine their lives and choose to accept their issues in the cold, hard light of day.
The reason you are frustrated right now is because your spiritual momentum has come to a sudden, screeching halt. This happens to everyone at times! You're derailed on your spiritual path and now you need some input from your angels. If you are not sure how to connect with your angels, download an MP3 of my free one-hour angel workshop that you can find on my website's home page.
This is the time to stop the self-criticism and celebrate the fact that you are embarking on a brand new chapter of your life. Your life's work involves writing non-fiction books that are geared toward helping other people "own" their issues so that they can finally resolve them and create a new life centered around their dreams-rather than remain in a place they've outgrown simply because of what other people accept, endorse, or approve of. You do not need any writing classes; start your first book right now. Once you've spent some time in front of the computer, the words will flow freely. And, turn your head off! You will feel your essence once you realize that you are making a positive difference in other people's lives by contributing what you are truly capable of…in a way that makes your heart and soul sing.

Dear Kim:
I'm so excited to have found you because I have been having trouble connecting to my life's work for a very long time, and other intuitives have been too vague to help. I've dabbled in a lot of areas and know my strengths pretty well, but never seem to just click with anything. On a related note, I am never quite comfortable with where I'm living- literally the geographic location. Can you tell me where on earth I'd be most at home, and what I need to do to find my life's work and feel satisfaction with this lifetime? And one last thing, I've recently started a relationship with a man in Buenos Aires, Argentina, and I'm wondering if you have insights on how/where to make our relationship work (if it's meant to!) since we're currently on two different continents.
Gracie M., 28,
Minneapolis, MN
Dear Gracie:
First of all, you'd be happiest living in Flagstaff, Arizona. Go online and take a peek and see if you can feel the energy of that magical place. The move is likely to take place next year, which is why you feel as if you have completely outgrown Minneapolis. (By the way, you would not be content living in a warm climate...you'd die of the heat!)
The man in Buenos Aires is a Mr. Right Now who your angels have sent into your life to help pass the time while you're finishing out the current chapter of your life in Minnesota. He is not a Mr. Wonderful. Your life's work is something that you haven't yet considered: owning an herb farm in Flagstaff, and selling your wonderful herbs worldwide from a website you're going to call Grace's Farm. You already know that an office environment isn't for you, or a structured Monday through Friday routine. You would love to operate your own business; spending time outdoors; working with living things; and, feeling that you were giving back to others by offering the highest quality organic herbs that could be used for healing, cooking/baking, and even potpourri! Start researching herbs now and you'll be that much closer to launching into this stimulating new chapter of your life! By the way, your future husband and children will work in the herb business with you.
