Cover Reveal: The Disciple

I will be self publishing my debut book in early January. I'm doing final edits now. Until then enjoy the cover. Robert Baird, a fellow Australian, did an amazing job! Those are my hands. I'm excited and nervous, and I'm grateful to everyone who has supported me to accomplish this goal.

Listen With Your Heart

"Wisdom is born in the heart and then spoken." My guide, Gegu, said this to me when I read that line. "Do you listen to spirit with your heart or mind, my son?"

I hear you in my mind.

Smiling, Gegu responded, "But do you listen with your heart?"

I don't know who to credit for the photo :(

Often clients have an expectation about what spirit will or won't say and are surprised and/or disappointed when it doesn't happen. Spirits have the personalities they had when they were living. If your father didn't talk much when he was living he will be quiet in spirit. A good medium will connect with his personality and see memories that were important to him to establish proof, but dad may have nothing to say.

My experience is that negative emotion and behaviour is softened or eliminated in spirit. For example, initially, to connect and be factual, I will describe a violent alcoholic. Once the connection is made those feelings will evaporate and only the good qualities in the dad will remain. Often when I connect to a spirit who mistreated my client, the client will say, “tell him/her to go away. I don't want to speak to him/her.”

The healing vibration is always 'on' around/within me. When clients come for readings they will also receive healing. The 'bastard' in spirit is here because to heal you I also have to heal them, and I might connect to generations of bastards and victims. I'm healing consciousness. For me, spirit is real and living and past events are current.

It's rare not to connect with the spirit the client wants, but it does happen. Sometimes the spirit may have nothing to say or doesn't like the medium. Depending on the personalities of the the spirit and client, the energy of expectation and desperation sometimes hinders or prevents me from connecting. Despite this, I always believe when we think about someone in spirit they're there.

Listen with your heart ;).

Cancer, Energy Healing & Possible Reasons For a Healthy Response

In early October I saw a client in Ararat, Victoria, who had cancer in her stomach and liver. She had a 7 cm and 5 cm tumour, and after the first session booked another two days later. Unknown to me she had, from the chemotherapy, been having nose bleeds and the inside of her nose was inflamed and full of sores. The sores disappeared after the first session and, according to her, every time she felt nauseous she thought about me and the feeling subsided. Initially, she contacted my host and said, (I'm paraphrasing) “ don't think that I'm crazy, but the sores have gone,” and that made her book another session. As part of her treatment, the tumours were rescanned 5 days after. They were now 3 cm and 1 cm, and the specialist had never seen anything like it.

I've been told all this second hand and don't yet have a testimonial, but the information is accurate. I believe the tumour will completely disappear, but unfortunately the chemotherapy will continue to make the client ill. I've mentioned before that I don't have any medical training or qualification, but I've been told, and if you do know, please share, that because the tumour has shrunk, the chemo will attack a higher percentage of healthy cells.

In my last post I talked about an unsuccessful cancer healing and the possible reasons why. In this healing I believe these factors contributed to the positive outcome:

Disclosure: the client fully disclosed her illness. It surprises me how many clients come for a specific reason, but won't tell me. Testing me to see if I'll find the problem limits the healing response. Often I'll find the illness regardless, but game playing agitates me and disrupts the flow of information – cellular and anatomical images, conversations with spirit and client's energy fields – I see. I know something is off, but I can't determine what it is.

Honesty: tell me how you feel, and being sceptical is fine, but being honest about it is better. Faith without expectation benefits healing, but you don't need to have faith in me. Be honest about that. I have faith, and its my job to make believers out of sceptics.

Awareness: when client's notice an improved health change, and again, I'm surprised by how many don't, the positive energy accelerates healing.

Gratitude: be grateful :).

It's not a big list, and I encourage you to read the previous post. I don't believe we should over complicate healing, and though there are many subtle influencing factors that may or may not affect the outcome, it's difficult to collect a body of evidence to prove or disprove theories.

Talk soon :).

Energy Healing Success and Failure

This week, a lady who had a healing with me twelve months ago approached a friend and asked if I'd ever done any successful healings. My friend's response was, “yes, many.” The lady had cancer, had had a session with me and hadn't experienced a positive health response. She then visited another healer who advised her that I was a learner and wasn't connected to a divine power. Not surprisingly, he didn't heal the woman either.

I prefer to share positive stories to give people hope, but if you've come to one of my events or attended a session with me you'd hear me say, “I don't know what will happen during a healing or after, but I have faith and I'm often surprised by outcomes,” and this, “sometimes I'm not successful and I don't make excuses for this, I move on.” On the welcome page on my website is, “Although I’ve done numerous successful healings, I’ve also been unsuccessful many times. Some clients have had a nil or negligible health response.” 

I know I would’ve said these things or similar to the lady. I also would’ve discussed, even if she didn’t notice any changes to her health, booking another session. I believe, in some healings, the first healing addresses mental health issues and eases fear. A second healing may not be successful either, but many clients have had positive health outcomes after the second session.

I'm sorry that the lady has cancer, that I was unable to help her and I'm disappointed that another healer has misled her. I've heard similar judgements from alternative/spiritual healers many times and all of them aren't getting positive health responses. I could ask strangers in the street to do a healing and the recipient would feel something: tingling, warmth, a peaceful feeling, or experience immediate or gradual positive health. With modalities of energy or spiritual healing, my experience has been that accreditation doesn’t guarantee success.

I'd like everyone who came for a healing to have a positive health response, and, at times, it frustrates me this isn't the case. In my experience it's not for these reasons: belief (I’ve had success with sceptics many times), karma, soul contract, timing, or any other metaphysical reason some spiritual healers give.

We're all responsible for our past and present and in control of our future. That may seem like a heartless statement to an innocent victim of crime and illness, but I'm responsible for the death of the person who died last night in a drink driving accident. I drink, I drive, sometimes too fast, and when I was younger I drove after and while I was drinking. Potentially, I could've killed myself and someone else. I haven't driven after drinking alcohol for decades, but I've still contributed to the death-while-drink-driving vibration. 

Sometimes the habitual patterns/vibrations of generations of family and community seem insurmountable, but I'm certain that in every healing a window of opportunity is created for health to manifest. If clients monitor their thoughts and are willing, they can change lifestyle, social, emotional, and health conditions.

With all illness I've noted that there are some influencing factors that may – I say may because I've had positive responses with all these factors present – restrict success:

Medication: I'm not qualified to talk about medication, nor do I advise anyone to go off prescribed medication, but often I'm aware that treatment is affecting the immune and other natural systems of the body. I encourage clients to talk to their doctors and specialists about all health related topics.  

Desperation: I understand why people are desperate to heal or to connect with someone in spirit, but that emotion interferes with both processes. Wanting something causes tension in the subtle energy systems of mind and body, while allowing relaxes those systems.   

Expectation: I appreciate that people are excited to see me, but if you expect an outcome you may leave disappointed. Have no expectations and then be grateful for any discernible change. Gratitude is a powerful creating force.

Denial: This is tough for anyone to hear, but some people don't want to get well. This state of being is a debilitating addictive behaviour. This is different than being exhausted or overwhelmed by the struggle to be well. I have compassion for that situation and patience and hope for the person.

I believe timing and synchronicity is something we create, not the universe. The universe/field of consciousness responds to our intent, will and action, and with energy healing I only need a tiny vibrational shift/pathway to create change. The best path for this is honesty: are you afraid, are you lazy, and do you answer these questions with, “Yes, but …” No excuses, blame, or denial. It's cliché, but the truth will set you free. 

Sometimes, I'm not successful. Client's personality, circumstance and my experience may help me determine why, but I won't make excuses or mislead anyone.

In the last four weeks clients have shared these success stories: a lady booked for surgery to remove a gallstone, after one healing, is now symptom and pain free, another lady, also after one healing, believes her prolapsed uterus and bladder have repositioned and she has no discomfort during her period, a lady with suspect cells on her cervix, after one healing and further investigation is now healthy, another lady with a genetic immune system disease, after one distant healing, is symptom and pain free (she experienced excruciating spinal pain daily) and is off  the medication and steroids that were prescribed.

I’m grateful to have client’s trust and faith and I’m committed to improving and understanding my healing craft.

Rise of The Dark Angel!

Every now and then someone believes that I'm working for the dark side, and the accusation always comes from another healer, psychic, or from someone who follows spiritual practices. The latest story is that I'm a dark angel and, surprisingly, it's from someone that had a successful healing with me. Without being told I intuited the location and size of a cyst (apparently, the cyst could be felt under the skin) and within hours the cyst had gone. I also accurately described and communicated with numerous spirit from the lady's past.

Client's experience a wide range of responses during healings, but the one that causes me to be described as the Darkest Knight is a feeling of arousal in varying degrees. It's no different than a shoulder twitching, rapid eye movement, uncontrollable sobbing, or outbursts of laughter. It's an energetic explosion that needs to happen. Even now, after years of doing this, I still can't determine when it will happen or who it will happen to. It's not one of the more common responses, it's just the one that's remembered and talked about the most.

There are many causes and reasons behind this response: repressed emotion (all emotions), repressed sexuality, desire, being in a loveless and sexless relationship, past or generational abuse, longing for and fear of change, joy, the expression and experience of love, and I'm certain there are many situations and feelings I haven't experienced yet.

I always handle these situations respectfully and most of the time I'm unaware my client has experienced this response. My attention is elsewhere: looking at images from my client's past, talking to spirit, and investigating cellular and anatomical images.

This month I sought advice from two respected mediums and healers, one here in Australia and one in the USA, and they both praised my integrity and supported my conclusions about the reasons behind this response.

I believe there's a lot of misinformation about spiritual/energy healing and superstition surrounding what it is and isn't. Often, the ones talking about negative or dark energy have no idea what they're talking about. I prefer to focus on the positive aspects of my work, and if I'm working with dark angels, they're bloody good healers ;).

Happy Father's Day Simon!

I've been away from home for two weeks in VIC doing healings and readings and I've neglected my blog. I always have good intentions to post regularly, but my days are long and I don't have the energy. The trip was a success and I'm grateful to new hosts and clients for trusting me and having faith. I've been advised that two clients had cysts and a suspect tumour disappear overnight and I'm confident there will be further positive responses. As always the readings were fantastic and I'm grateful to spirit for their support and love. I'll post a meatier post later. Talk soon :).

I missed my family and arrived home on father's day to be greeted by this!

Max is loved & he loves the puppy too!

Medium – Physic Readings With a Dwarf & a Donkey

Thank you to new hosts, Sushi in Cairns and Monica in Sydney, and to everyone who trusted me to do a healing and reading. Thank you spirit, healers, Gegu, Jesus and family for always turning up and having faith in me. Donkey, you rock!

This week, I read an advertising blurb for a medium that said he was accompanied by a dwarf, Bernie, from another spiritual realm. Hobbit? I may have to dedicate a page on my website to the mythical God, Donkey, from that other spiritual realm: the madness of my mind ;). Possibly, man accompanied by dwarf is a brilliant medium, but it's curious that people take him seriously after his Weekend at Bernie's.

Just quietly though, Donkey is real ;). To be fair, I have had experiences with dwarfs in spirit that appear to be not from around here. Walk about dudes!

I've noticed that when I'm doing back to back readings and healings similar information and experiences group together. I had three deaths during child birth, three hangings, two Andrews booked appointments in the same day – this is surprising because 90% of my clients are women – Andrew was also a common name in spirit, and I had three clients, not connected, with Maltese bloodlines.

Names from spirit, for me, can be difficult to hear. I'll often get a sound like name or the strong letter, but that is improving. 60% of the time I get the name, although sometimes it's the middle or surname. I'm spirit's puppet and they're smarter than the average bear. They often give me information about a living person that client's know, and then direct me to ask for that person's full name. The name is shared by the spirit that's communicating. In one instance I was given information about a living John, a name I don't have difficulty hearing, and then a woman connected to him who had breast cancer, two kids, and a son Daniel. Her name was Melissa Elizabeth. Elizabeth was the name of my client's mother-in-law and it was, Dorothy, her middle name that spirit was saying to me. Once my client heard the name Dorothy, everything I'd told her at the start of our conversation made sense.

My work is emotional, exciting and often funny. With one client spirit shouted the name, Bruce, over and over as soon as she entered the room. She didn't know any Bruce's, living or dead. I talked to her about a man who suicided, and the details about his life and death were accurate. I adopted his personality and mannerisms, and my client laughed and cried. Both of us commented that he was a joker, his name was Wayne. Bruce Wayne, Batman! Yes, and the Joker :).

Talk soon, Simon, Gegu and Donkey, “Donkey? … Donkey! Oh, there you are. I didn't see Frodo come in.”

Belief is a Product of Human Consciousness

This is what you'll find on Facebook. Visit sometime :)

Living as a spiritual being doesn't mean conforming to spiritual belief systems. Belief is a product of human consciousness not experience. My experiences and conversations with nature are happening now. They don't happen because of the experiences of a past life. If my soul has lived a thousand lives those experiences and knowledge are also the experiences and knowledge of your soul.

Soul contracts, soul mates, karma, the hierarchy of ascended masters/spirit, are all human belief systems. When you put aside everything you've read, heard and then believed to be true – including the stories I share – and only focus on what you experience, then you're experience will be the only true thing. My stories are interesting or boring depending on the listener. They're only true for me.

Our belief systems remain in consciousness/the universe, and connecting with, intuiting, channelling that information doesn't make it true. Creating 'miraculous' healings are the building blocks needed to create another, but with subtle differences. Be brave enough to create something new. Spirit and the energy/vibrations of the past will assist you, but spirit are waiting for us to be original and creators.

The Christ consciousness is an energy created by human consciousness. Jesus was a mother's son, a boy and then a man. That's what made him powerful and interesting. Be that! A son, a daughter, a man, or a woman, and be magnificent.

We love you. ♥

My Dog Died & My Heart Broke

On Wednesday morning I went downstairs and Tink was unconscious. I rushed her to the vets and I was advised she may have a brain injury or illness. She was in a coma and had zero neurological responses. The vet asked if I wanted to put her down, as she couldn't guarantee, because of Tink's condition, that treatment would help.

Tink asked me, “let me go,” but I wasn't brave enough. I've worked with clients in palliative care before, and their souls ask to be freed, but Tink was family, and I ignored her plea. The vet wrapped her in heat blankets, shaved parts of her body and hooked her up to a drip, took blood for testing, and consulted with staff. Tink recovered over the day, was able to walk, drink and feed, but she deteriorated overnight and by morning was in a coma again.

I spoke to the vet by phone and this time I was able to advise her to euthanise her, but I asked her to wait until I was there. I didn't want Tink to die without family beside her. She died three minutes before Maree, Julia and I arrived. We viewed her body, I held her cold ear, and our hearts broke. I cry every time I think about her.

I know that Tink will visit in spirit, but the last conversation we had haunts me. She knew she was dying, and she wanted me to let her go. 

“Tink, I love you, baby girl. We're all going to miss you.”

What's Simon Reading?

I realised some time ago that I write unhelpful reviews. I enjoy a book or I don't, and often I can't describe why a book is worth reading or not, but this is what's on my reading list now :).

Prince of Thieves by Chuck Hogan – Thriller.

The Scorpio Races by Maggie Stiefvater @mstiefvater – YA, fantasy. Maggie is a favourite YA author and this book has been the best YA book I've read this year. Maggie has also influenced how I interact online. She's a social media superstar, a writing mentor and I read what she recommends

Jane Was Here by Sarah Kernochan @SarahKernochan – Thriller, paranormal. This book was recommended to me on twitter, and after following Sarah I ordered it. Twitter works!

You by Charles Benoit – YA. I've read it and loved it.

County Line by Bill Cameron @bcmystery – Crime, thriller. I read it over three days, which is quick for me. Some time shifts in this, but they were handled well and I didn't get confused. Bill is in Janet Reid's stable and that's the only recommendation I need to read him. I read what Janet recommends and I've never been disappointed. I've been a fan of Janet's for a few years now and I consider her to be a writing mentor.

The Space Between by Brenna Yovanoff @brennayovanoff – YA, dark fantasy. Brenna is another of my favourite YA authors, a writing mentor, and someone I'd like to emulate. I'm looking forward to reading this book.

Hunted by Cheryl Rainfield @CherylRainfield– YA, dystopian. I've read this and loved it. The best YA book I've read thus far about being a telepath and psychic.

Larkstorm by Dawn Rae Miller @DawnRaeMiller – YA, dystopian. I follow Dawn on Twitter and I bought the book because she has a great online personality.

Divergent by Veronica Roth @VeronicaRoth – YA, dystopian. So many people have talked about this book online that I had to buy it :).

Insights Into How I do Psychic Readings

Every time I do days of back to back healings and readings I experience something new. I'm still not certain how I do what I do, but I always have fun. When I hear names from spirit I sometimes hear a sounds-like name: let's say the spirit's name is Gary, I might hear Larry, Barry, Harry … I usually know if it's a sounds-like though, and I also know if the name is right. I might get the strong letter sound: the D, the M, the K for c or k.

One of the days, during the previous trip away, I heard all the names of the living people connected to clients. The following day I got all the names of the dead people, another day I hit all the middle names, and then, just to mix it up, I did a day of initials. A little crazy, and I'm not sure why. This trip I did a day of birth dates to identify spirit, and, during one reading, I saw images of rolling dices: a 1 and 6, 16^th, 2 and 3, 23^rd.

I'm an information guy, I see images, movie-like, of memories of a spirit's life. I see from the spirit's eyes and also as an observer. This is accompanied by fragments of dialogue. I'm also empathic to body types, illness, injury, and death. Often, what I hear in my mind I don't say. This surprises me. At times it's like I have no control over what I'm saying. I don't let this frustrate me, I simply explain to clients how I work with spirit and, mostly, they tune into the experience and our conversation and the information flows.

When I get a positive response from clients the reading flows better. This makes it difficult if the client doesn't know the spirit that's communicating. I encourage everyone to be positive and interested. There's a subtle difference between not knowing and not responding. Not responding stalls the flow of information, while not knowing allows me to get a block of information but it usually doesn't go anywhere. Spirit want to reassure us that they're still part of the family. “Hi, I'm here, but I have nothing to say.”

When a client is desperate to communicate to a particular spirit, for me, this also obstructs the information from flowing. Often, I'll connect with everyone else first before connecting with the spirit clients want to hear from. I cannot script who will turn up. If the client wants to communicate to dad, and I don't connect with dad, doesn't mean that dad's not present though.

I also slide from one spirit to the next, or jump from similar vibrations of information. I connect with John the living friend, describe his life or an incident in his life that needs healing, then slide to John, the dad in spirit, then onto the grandfather George John Smith – middle name John – then to the client's in-law's uncle John.

I may connect with living John, the client's friend, and then John's sister in law Jenny who has cancer. This will lead to Jenny's mother, who is not connected to the client, who died from lung cancer, and then to the client's grandfather, Albert, who had bowel cancer. Albert is from the client's father's side, and it's the father the client wants to connect with. The client's so desperate to connect that I cannot hear the father's name, but I see clear images: the hospital room where he died, the people that were there, the gold ring that was left to the client's brother, the tattoo on the father's forearm, the tattoo that the client got in memory of dad, …

In a recent reading I'd already spoken to three people connected to both mother and father who had died from cancer close together. I was concerned that my memory of the previous readings, as they were only days apart, would influence or hinder what I got from spirit. I needn't have worried, spirit gave me all new images and stories for the son to confirm that his parents were watching over his family and him: the flatscreen TV that had fallen a few days ago, the discussion to buy a pool table, the father's record collection and old stereo the son still played, favourite songs, and other personal information known only to the son.

I connect with and see living people the same as the dead, so sometimes' I'm not sure if it's spirit or a psychic image I'm working with. When I touch, or are near someone they 'speak' to me in my mind. As do people connected to clients. It get's a little confusing, but, mostly, clients enjoy our conversations and it all makes sense.

Every healing and readings is different and sometimes I don't get any information known to clients. I always trust that what I'm receiving is correct, even if I can't place it in the right part of the family or time period. There maybe the perception that I should know, but communicating with spirit doesn't work like that. Some clients have described that I look and talk like the spirit I'm connected to. My mannerisms are the same. This is often more important than what I'm saying.

It's always interesting, emotional and exciting. I don't know why every reading is different, but I'm always grateful to spirit for their efforts, and to clients for their trust. Talk soon :).
