What is a booking fee? And why?  

A booking fee is a charge for doing an in-office session.  It's cheaper to do a Skype or phone session because you don't pay a booking fee.  And I don't have to pay for office space because I'm working from the comfort of my home while you are in the comfort of yours.  I always say if money is an issue then book a Skype or phone session.  Your session results will be as accurate and clear as an in person session.  I always joke around and say the only difference is you don't get a real hug, you get an electronic hug. LOL  :)

A little history of why I require a booking fee when scheduling an office session with me?

I've been meeting with clients for a very long time and never had an issue but one Saturday morning long ago...I decided to start charging a booking fee because this lady booked an office session with me on a Saturday morning at 9 a.m. and didn't show up.  I didn't get a call or email to cancel.  She didn't answer her cell phone the three times I attempted to call as I waited on her arrival.  I sat there wondering if she was okay or just decided to sleep in on her Saturday morning like I could have been doing!
It was a very disappointing and frustrating day for me that Saturday morning many months ago.  I mean at that time I was trying to do 2 businesses and I'm a single only parent with health problems with challenges daily.  I work very hard, my child has sports five days a week, sometimes six so for me to crawl out of bed at 730 in the morning on a Saturday morning to take a shower and get myself into the office by nine, I know now is and was asking a lot from my tired disabled self.  Then for her to not even have the common courtesy to call or email or even answer her phone when I called her was just blatantly rude!  As I sat in my office, eyes closed, talking to Spirit asking why... I heard my Angels chime in and say, things happen for a reason...
And that's when the messsage came to me to require a small booking fee to schedule an office session. 
In the.. I don't know, maybe year that I've now been doing this I've had two people schedule a session and no-show.  I know it makes a big difference now when someone doesn't show to their appointment at least I get paid something for the trip into the office.  It's also a little compensation for the fact that another person could have scheduled a session during that time slot, so at least it accommodates my time slightly.

So today I have somebody booked at 2:15 that scheduled her second session with me a couple weeks ago and I called her 3 days ago to confirm because my spidey senses said call her plus I didn't collect a booking fee.  I left her a message but I never heard back from her, and to be honest with all the dealings with my grandmother's funeral yesterday and the viewing the day before and all the preparations and family drama going on around me it never occurred to me that I didn't hear back from her. I do remember her she was a very very nice lady with relationship issues with a motorcycle gang boyfriend. 
So this morning when I realized I never heard back from her I attempted to try to call her again and again left a message, because I have two other people that are trying to get in today and I don't have the time available.  If she isn't coming in I could give that time slot to someone else.
She didn't answer.  I still went to my office because you never know maybe her phone was lost, broken or. .. AND....the result....she didn't show and to this day (March 26, 2014) I have not heard from her.
Given her situation it makes me wonder if she's okay or not?!

These are a few reasons why I charge a booking fee.  And I notice that people are more responsible when they have a few bucks on the line.  If they're not going to show up then they make sure they cancel or reschedule which allows me to give that time slot to somebody else.  After all I am running a business here. ;)

Hi my name is Peej and I have been blessed with many gifts and what one of my best friend says I have super powers. 
I am a Communication Guidance Healer.  I graduated in 2007 with a Communication Degree, a Liberal Arts Degree, and a Communication Studies Certificate and with honors.  I have facilitated Positive Parenting Classes, Domestic Violence Support, and have volunteered hundreds of hours at my child's schools over the years, as well as have helped bring hundreds, maybe thousands of people guidance and healing to their minds, bodies and souls through Spirit- all of my life.
Plus I've also graduated from the school of hard knocks - and with honors lol jk.

I have been on a spiritual journey most of my adult life to heal my mind, body, and soul .
And in that journey I've learned that one of my gifts is that I am an Empath.
You ask what is an empath?

Have your friends or family ever told you that you are really sensitive?  Do you feel like or actually cry when you watch American Idol? Do you have unexplained pain in your body? Can you feel other people's pain?  Do you always feel the desire to or offer to help?  Do you have a feeling when something bad is going to happen?  Do you have anxiety?
If you answered yes to any of these you too may be an Empath.
Empaths care and worry about everyone and are so very compassionate and are very sensitive.  Sometimes an Empath is more worried about others and how they feel before they are worried about themselves. 
They will give, give, help, care and then at the end of the day they are exhausted.  The will think and feel. .. "I helped, cared and why do I feel like I didn't get the end result I hoped for?" They don't feel good. They may feel drained physically or emotionally.   They help people and then it doesn't turn out.  Especially true when you're in a love relationship with someone that doesn't possess this super power.  
If any of this makes sense then you may be an Empath- I encourage you to continue to read and also read my other blogs on empaths.

Another example of living in an empathic body is when you watch TV or a movie are you extremely sensitive to the people on the screen?   I mean, I can't watch shows when someone gets hurt, because I actually feel their pain in my body. 
The show that is on in my house a lot is Ridiculousness.  A lot of people laugh and think it's funny, but when someone falls or gets hurt, it's really not funny to an Empath....I see that and I actually feel that person's pain in my body and I feel a sensation in my body.  For me, I feel it in my legs or knees.  It's very difficult for me to watch a person experience pain. Very uncomfortable and gets me agitated. We have a family rule to change the channel when I'm around.  I don't watch those shows. 
And for me- I also feel the pain and a sensation through my body if someone talks about getting hurt or explains how someone they know broke their leg, I don't only hear what they are saying I relate with that person's pain and feel it in my body- literally and can empathize with that person on a higher level.

I always joke around and say that being an Empath makes me the amazing Healer  that I am because I'm sensitive to your energy, your needs, and your pains, but it's NOT so amazing at the mall!  During my high school and younger adult years I never wanted to go to the mall.  It just wasn't a fun thing to do, even today, I honestly dread the mall, it just isn't something I want to do during my free time.  My child had never been to the mall until he was 6 or 7 years old because I hate shopping.  I will go in, go straight to the store I need, purchase and leave! 
I knew I didn't like shopping at the mall, but I was never able to actually articulate this.  After years of learning my body I am now able to put it into words from an emotion and feeling.  I'm overstimulated when I go to places where there are a lot of people, energy or Spirit.

As an Empath it's been my journey to pay attention to things around me and listen to my body and honor and respect my body. 
When someone is mean or rude to me, it is my job to choose to not be in contact with that person.  I will drive ten miles to a store to deal with that nice customer service orientated bank teller that doesn't negatively affect my energy.  I mean let's face it- our surroundings have an effect on us.  Feng Shui originates from the Chinese and is the East, West, North, or South positioning of your home, front door, and furniture.  It is proof that our surrounding have a huge effect on us, and more importantly people in our lives actually have a bigger affect on us.

If I deal with a person at the bank near my home and they are not really warm, helpful or friendly... I may leave there feeling bla! Or even irritated, but then one day I stopped at another bank farther from my home, and they are nice and they put a smile on my face, and also on my heart, trust me- I will drive to the farther bank, because I want to feel that comfort and ease with interaction with others, which makes me feel good.  Meaning didn't affect my mood in a negative way.

Another sign that you may be an Empath is that you hate texting.  Because they rely on feeling as their primary sense to feel and that's pretty close to impossible when you text. 
It can be an horrible experience for an Empath. In talking to my very good friend Lindsay, she gets irritated with her friends because she says that when she reads their text messages she can't get a feeling and always wonders if that the person is mad at her. She reads the text as if they are mad.
I understand texting is quick and easy for some things like "Pick up some milk" or "I'm ready", but now a days people use texting as a way of communicating. 
A perfect example is when someone meets a person on an online dating site, they want to email and text back and forth, but in this circumstance texting isn't good, because there isn't any emotion behind a text.  You can't read them or their energy or hear them or feel them. An Empath wants to talk so that they can feel and through texting there isn't any emotion to feel so it can be very confusing to the mind and emotions.

Another example of an Empath is they always feel other people's pain and want it to stop.  So they will do everything they can do to help so that the pain will stop.  

When someone hurts an Empath the pain is exacerbated.  It becomes excruciating beyond belief.  It is horrible!!  And very difficult to get through or release the imprint it makes.
This is why all body work, energy healing, acupuncture, meditation, massage, physical therapy and love is so important to heal your body.

I am not going to claim I have this down. .. but I will tell you this, I consciously make an effort to be aware of the people I surround myself with and pay attention to those that have an effect on me and trust me people will have an effect and refrain from those how jeopardize my happiness or peace.  I try to turn off that empath, empathy trigger, sense or sensor and only open up or help when I am asked.  The person says Peej can you. .. and they ask which translates to they have come to a conclusion that they want help and most importantly they realize they NEED help and ASK for it! 
If you only get one thing out of this blog, I pick that this piece of advice sink into your mind, body and soul.

Over the years I've been more and more in touch with the amazing Spiritual gifts that God has given me and every year I become more and more in touch with my Angels.   I continuously amaze myself and clients I work with, but what I am most amazed with, is the way Angels appear in my day-to-day life or show me things daily!  Certain numbers are always popping up everywhere I go.  They are a way that they continuously showing themselves.  Prior to opening up to a path as a Guidance Healer, for years and years I used to wake up at 2:22 almost every night.  I didn't know what it meant and to be quite honest I realy just thought it was pure coincidence.  About five or six years ago when I was much more in my spiritual path, which was more ever than I was in the previous years and I remember standing outside after attending a meditation class and saying to my friend at the time, that I kept seeing 333 everywhere.  I see it every day and everywhere I go, its standing out at me.  On licence plates on receipts.  She said those are your Angels talking to you!  That's when I learned of Doreen Virtue and her Angel numbers books.  I was so curious...I was a sponge and I wanted to learn, learn and learn more!  So I immediately went and bought one of her Angel Number Books. I learned what 222 and 333 meant and after a few weeks in ent from beside the bed to on the bookshelf with the rest of my book I need to read.  Im much better with listening or watching.  I really don't enjoy reading a good book, as they put it.  But Doreen's Angel Number's book is more like a dictonary of numbers so it's a useful tool I am glad she wrote and shared with the world.  She's pretty amazing.  I had the pleasure of attending one of her presentations in San DIego at "I Can Do It!" in 2010, and then again about a year or so ago at another I can do it in San Jose.  She's really amazing. 

Okay so back to my Angel numbers... about three years ago I had the honor of doing healing work on a very ill premature baby in the hospital.  I kept seeing 444.  I'd pull up to the hospital and park my car and it'd be 4:44pm.  I'd be doing energy work on the baby and I'd look at the monitor and there would be numbers on the monitor and there would be 444 showing.  It would be one row 74 the next 44 and the next row 94 on the monitors.
And if you just focused on the numbers you could see the 444.  The next day I'd be driving down the street and look at a house as I passed it and the address would be 444 or 8444.  I remember another day standing outside my doctors office, mind you I've been there at least fifty times in the last ten years and what do I see?  On the side of the buiding the address to the neighbor is 444!  I had been there a million times and never ever noticed that 444.  It was just happening way to many times to say that this was a coincidence.  444 was showing up everyehere, so of course, I remebered a few years back when I bought that ANgel Number's book so I pulled the book out and looked up what my Angels were trying to say.   I shared the Angel numbers with the parents of the baby I was working with and after learning about them, they would always put "444" as the signature on their text message.  Even after she was healed and released from the hospital they did this for the next year or so.  Once in a blue moon I will get a text with 444 in it from the father to this day.  

Angels are amazing and I always encourage people to build that relationship with them.  Get to know them.  Talk to them.  I always say...If you ask then you'll receive.  Plus I feel it's important to share my personal experience with my Angels and that's why I blog some things on here... but lets face it...life sometimes gets overwelming so I can't share all of my Angel stories...but I want to share this blurb that Doreen Virtue shares and encourage you to pay attention and build that relationship with your Angels and meditate so that you can quiet your mind, body and soul and be able to feel their vibrations.  Thank you for listening I am sending you blessing love and light and praying for peace and happiness.


Doreen Virtue shares:  
"You have guardian angels with you right now — continuously — guaranteed! Your angels guide you through your thoughts, feelings, words, and visions. They also show you signs—that is, things that you see repeatedly with your physical eyes. One of their favorite signs relates to number sequences. These are numerals that you repeatedly see on license plates, phone numbers, clocks, and so on. 

If you’ve ever wondered about the significance of these number sequences, you’re not alone. Many people have asked us about their meaning during our angel workshops. So, we went to the Source and asked for guidance to interpret the meanings of repetitive number sequences. As a longtime student of Pythagorean sacred numerology (including a past life as his student) and also an angel channeler, I rapidly received information as to what the angels were conveying through these sequences. 

My workshop audiences loved it when I discussed the significance of these groups of numbers, and asked if I would compile a list for them to refer to. So, my book, Healing with the Angels, included a chapter listing the meanings. After Healing with the Angels many people said that they carried the book with them as a reference tool for interpreting the numbers they saw. They asked for an even more comprehensive book that was pocket-size which has just been published under the title, Angel Numbers.


Number-sequence interpretation is an easy way to receive messages from your angels. Numerals are everywhere, from digital clocks to billboards to license plates. Each number has a unique vibrational frequency relating directly to its meaning. 

This ancient wisdom harkens back to great teachers such as Hermes, Plato, and Pythagoras. Pythagoras said that everything in the Universe is mathematically precise, and each number has its own vibration, meaning, and virtue. Plato wrote everything in the Universe is built from basic geometrical shapes derived from numbers, such as triangles (from three) and cubes (from four). The sacred mystical Jewish text of the Zohar (Kabbalah) discusses the power of the vibrations from numbers and letters. 

The angels also say that the placement of the numbers in a sequence holds special meaning. For example, when there are three or more numbers, the center digit is of primary focus. The angels say that this number represents the “heart” of the matter.

Numerology is one of the few sacred sciences that has kept its magic from ancient to modern times. The angels remind us that we’re all alchemists, and that we’re powerful enough to manifest our true desires through Divine magic. Numbers point out the importance of seeing Heavenly messages third-dimensionally in order to show us the lessons, the growth opportunities, and the guidance contained within each of our experiences. 

Below is a sampling of some number sequences your angels may show to you. Ask for clarification if the numbers’ message is unclear by saying to them silently or aloud, “Please clearly explain so I’ll easily understand.” As with any divination tool, defer to your own inner wisdom as the ultimate authority. In other words, if in doubt, then trust your gut. 


Three-digit Numbers111 – Monitor your thoughts carefully, and be sure to only think about what you want, not what you don’t want. The sequence is a sign that there is a gate of opportunity opening up, and your thoughts are manifesting into form at record speeds. The 111 is like the bright light of a flash bulb. It means that the universe has just taken a snapshot of your thoughts and is manifesting them into form. Are you pleased with what thoughts the universe has captured? If not, correct your thoughts…ask your angels to help you with this if you have difficulty controlling or monitoring your thoughts.

123 — Simplify your life. Get rid of anything that’s pulling at your energy, time, or finances—especially anything that pulls you away from your life purpose. The ascended masters are helping you with this simplification.

222 — Have faith. Everything’s going to be all right. Don’t worry about anything, as this situation is resolving itself beautifully for everyone involved.

333 — The Ascended Masters are near you, desiring you to know that you have their help, love and companionship. Call upon the Ascended Masters often, especially when you see the number 3 patterns around you. Some of the more famous Ascended Masters include: Jesus, Moses, Mary, Quan Yin and Yogananda.

444 — Thousands of angels surround you at this moment, loving and supporting you. You have a very strong and clear connection with the angelic realm, and are an Earth angel yourself. You have nothing to fear—all is well.

555 — Buckle your seatbelts. A major life change is upon you. This change should not be viewed as being “positive” or “negative” since all change is but a natural part of life’s flow. Perhaps this change is an answer to your prayers, so continuing seeing and feeling yourself to be at peace.

666 — Your thoughts are out of balance right now, focused too much on the material world. This number sequence asks you to balance your thoughts between Heaven and Earth. Like the famous, “Sermon on the Mount” the angels ask you to focus on spirit and service, and know your material and emotional needs will be met as a result.

777 — The angels applaud you… “congratulations, you’re on a roll! Keep up the good work and know your wish is coming true.” This is an extremely positive sign and you should also expect more miracles to occur.

888 — A phase of your life is about to end, and this is a sign to give you forewarning to prepare. This number sequence may mean you are winding up an emotional career or relationship phase. It also means there is light at the end of the tunnel. In addition it means, The crops are ripe. Don’t wait to pick and enjoy them. In other words, don’t procrastinate in making your move or enjoying the fruits of your labor.

875 — The changes you’re making have put you on the right path for manifesting abundance in all ways.

999 — Get to work, Lightworker! The world needs your Divine life purpose right now. Fully embark upon your sacred mission without delay or hesitation.

000 — A reminder you are one with God, and to feel the presence of your Creator’s love within you. Also it is a sign that a situation has gone full circle. 

Four-digit NumbersTo interpret the meaning of four-digit numbers, break the number sequence into three digits and read that interpretation. Then, add the last digit’s interpretation to know the meaning of the entire sequence. For instance, to interpret 2048, begin with the first three digits: 204, and read its interpretation: 

204 — God and the angels ask for your patience. Stay filled with faith that your prayers have been heard and are answered. 

Then, read interpretation of the last of the four digits in 2048, which is 8:

8 — Know that financial abundance is coming to you now.

Put these two interpretations together and you have the meaning of 2048: God and the angels ask for your patience. Stay filled with faith that your prayers have been heard and are answered. Financial abundance is coming to you now.

Summarizing these combined interpretations, then, 2048 means: “Heaven assures you that your money needs will be supplied. Have patience.”

Five-digit NumbersYou can interpret five-digit numbers in a similar fashion. Just take the first three digits and read its meaning, then read the interpretation of the last two digits in the number sequence. Combine these meanings and then summarize them. 

Here’s an example using the five-digit number sequence, 99900:

999 — Get to work, Lightworker! The world needs your Divine life purpose right now. Fully embark upon your sacred mission without delay or hesitation.

And here is the meaning of the last two numbers:

00 — This means that the Creator is emphasizing a message to you and asks that you pay attention and follow the guidance without delay. 

Next, add the meanings of the two together to find that 99900 means: 

Get to work, Lightworker! The world needs your Divine life purpose right now. Fully embark upon your sacred mission without delay or hesitation. The Creator is emphasizing this message to you and asks that you pay attention and follow the guidance without delay. 

In other words, God wants you to fully commit yourself to your life’s purpose…now!


Six-digit NumbersTo interpret the meaning of a six-digit number such as 225496, you’d break it into two or three-digit components. In this case, we’ll break it into 225 and 496. Then, read the interpretation for the first section, which is:

225 — Trust that this change is for the best. You are in a period of transition—letting go of the past and that which is no longer working. Let go and move forward with confidence and faith. 

Then, you’d look up the meaning of the second three-digit segment:

496 — The angels ask you to make your Divine life mission your top priority right now. Don’t worry about how it will come about, or any other material aspect concerning your purpose. The angels help with everything.

Next, compile the meanings of each segment so that 225496 means:

Trust that this change is for the best. You’re in a period of transition—letting go of the past and that which is no longer working. Let go and move forward with confidence and faith. The angels ask you to make your Divine life mission your top priority right now. Don’t worry about how it will come about, or any other material aspect concerning your purpose. The angels help with everything.

This is a message, in summary, that says, “Have faith in the changes you’re experiencing. The angels ask you to focus on your Divine life mission, and they’ll supply all your material needs.”

You’ll love the continual conversations you’ll engage in with Spirit, with the help of the interpretations you’ll find in this article. Once you begin interpreting the number sequences, you’ll discover spiritual signs and messages everywhere you go. The more you learn about and notice number sequences, the more you’ll realize that Heaven is always with you—speaking with you, guiding you, and loving you. Have fun!

I am a very feeling person. So "feeling" that I suffer from Fibromyalgia. For me it's a balancing act. Making sure I disconnect, rest, balance things out and have "Me Time" is all very important factors in my mind, body, life and soul. Especially because I am a healer that doesn't use any cards or tools when I am in session. I use my body to read and feel people's energy.  I feel energy and I feel Spirit touch me, a Loved One that has passed away, or left this physical world. 
There is a such thing as life after death. Trust me they communicate with me daily.  So when a family member wants to connect with a loved one who has passed.  They come to a Medium, like me, to communicate.  For me it's like picking up a phone and dialing up a Spirit.  I can feel their emotions, hear their voice and feel them in my body or touch my body. I am Psychic, I am a medium I do have a Communication degree and certificate, I have facilitated parenting classes but I am a spiritual healer. I am a healer. I move energy and heal your body, mind and soul. This is my God given gift. And I thank God, my Angels and the universe for these gifts daily. 
They talk a lot about Spiritual gifts in the Bible. One verse is in 1 Corinthians 12 <- - click 
More info here <- - - click

I am so feeling that I can also feel a living person's energy, vibrations and emotions.  
A feeling person, also referred to as an Empath, is one my senses and can be considered a gift or a curse. My friend Scooter always says, "Peej you have super powers- now remember he says, you can't get something for nothing." Meaning there's always a pro and a con. There is always a payoff he says. Which I relate to the fact that I have Fibromyalgia. 
And it's true. Feeling is a gift, but looking back on my life now, it could also be looked at as a curse! LOL
Its actually a gift that makes me the amazing healer and reader that I am. I mean when I'm in a session with someone I can feel if they have kidney pain or I can feel a loved one that has passed giving me a feeling that I have to decode, or they touch me, when I'm connected to their energy. I can hear them speaking or they will touch my hair, head or arm, sometimes it's their way of confirming what I'm saying is correct. I always say, "It's pretty amazing while I'm in the office- but not so amazing when a I'm at the mall." 
Because I feel everyone's crap and I hear feel and see spirit and feel energy. That's how I read people, by their energy and aura. But when I'm at the mall it's a bit overwhelming for me. I get over simulated and then feel wiped out or fatigued. That's my fibromyalgia too!

This is where meditation or what I call "Me Time" comes in handy. It allows me to quiet my mind, clear the energy, and the thoughts, take a mental and physical break and just let it all go, even if it's just for a few minutes of my day. It's just disconnecting for a few minutes here and there. I sometimes say, it's like putting gas in your car. If you're on a road trip and you've driven through two states on a tank of gas, trust me, if you don't stop that car and put more gas in it, it will force you to stop by actually running out of gas or possibly over heating. The same way as your body does when it speaks to you, it's telling you I'm tired, stop, I'm overwelmed and then if you ignore it and keep going and going, to work, to this, and to that. ..and then it says, "I'm done, I'm shutting down, "I'm sick now!" And it forces you to stop. 
Okay back to the car... You already drove 900 miles and the gas gauge says empty.  You have to stop the car, turn it off and put gas into its tank, which is also taking a break, which could be considered a break, or stop time, or meditation time, which is also known as "Me time!" LOL

Over the years on my spiritual journey I've learned a few things here and there from classes, Silvia Brown, Sonia Choquette, self help books, and many more and really just experiencing things and experimenting myself. I have discovered a few things that work and help me disconnect, which then allows me to be in alignment with my higherself, Spirit and my soul. It allows me to disconnect, clear and be in that quiet space of peace, even if it's a few minutes. Sometimes it feels like I have to force myself, but after I do, I feel spiritually refreshed and feel a sense of a clearer thinking, and just a peace calm feeling body. After I mediate I feel stronger and better. This only takes a few minutes out of your day. And if you do a few minutes here and there throughout your day, it's awesome for your soul.

Here area few things that work for me:
You can take a bath with a candle burning and just watch the candle's flame flicker and just feel the warm water on your body and how wonderful it feels. Not thinking how wonderful- feeling how wonderful. We want to give the brain a rest and not think about anything. And trust me- thoughts will come in and I just put my hand up and imagine I'm pushing them aside and sometimes I have to say, "I hear you, but right now I'm taking some "Me Time" and you can come back later, after my "Me Time."

We all have God given gifts or senses. When we're taking some me time we want to put the knowing or thinking senses aside and we want to relax and feel, which requires your eyes to be closed, so that when we see, which also requires one side of your brain to take a break, so don't see and analyze- you look at something and admire. You look and feel. No solving or thinking or brain work allowed when looking. Turn off that curiosity and just be free from it all. Just admire, which is feeling and enjoy what you see. 
It's almost like day dreaming, which is also a great "Me Time" exercise. When you sit there alone and quietly and allow yourself to let go of ego and any learned expectations and just day dream, you allow your mind to go on a journey and venture off into a fairyland. It's an amazing gift and tool to be able to venture off into our safe place. This allows us to disconnect from reality and from analyzing things and let's us dream while we are awake, allowing all of those fantasizing thoughts to come in, venturing off into a great space and allowing wonderful thoughts to enter. It's such an amazing feeling, once you've returned from an adventurous fantasy and you feel happy and spiritually charged and hopeful. If you can imagine it, then it's possible, not just in our head, when we day dream, but in our real life's journey, which allows hope and openness to the possibilities. Sometimes when I allow my expectations or learned ways to be pushed aside and just let myself go, I will see things unfold and I get answers. Not everyone can daydream. This is what I consider a God given "gift" and to some it can be very frustrating.  So if you try it once and it doesn't just come naturally then you can't do it- try the other things I will share. Please don't try and try and get frustrated and then retreat into your head and feel irritated or frustrated. Just let it go and find something that is easy and makes you feel good, relaxed and revived.

Going to the beach and sitting alone on the sand and watching the beautiful waves for a few minutes, then closing your eyes and just listening to the waves for a few minutes, then opening your eyes and watching- well you get the idea. While doing this you want to focus on your breathing- in and out slowly, not thinking about if you're breathing too slow or too fast, remember we are feeling not thinking, just feel the breathe in and feel the calmness set in, while setting the intention that this is "Me Time" and for the next few minutes you're turning off your thoughts. Disconnecting from that analyzing side of the brain. You're goal is to disconnect for a few minutes and just enjoy the beauty of the ocean and Mother Earth. You could sneak in talking to your Angels, or allow a few minutes of prayer at the beginning, but to be honest I need you to set an intention with yourself and your Spirit Guides that this is "quiet time" because let me tell you one of my Guides is a chatty Cathy. So you should say out loud or in your mind's eye, this is me time and we're NOT open for business and we're going to push those thoughts aside, and for the next however many minutes you choose I'm going to be mostly focusing on disconnecting and feeling, then you can talk after I'm done, and then I will listen and be open to thinking again.  But until then, I'm on a break. (And remember to thank them for respecting your wishes after.)
Then just relax, focus on your breath and admire the amazing waves crashing and the peace and comfort you feel from the sounds of the ocean.

Another thing that works wonderfully for me is walking at night. Not waking during the day, but walking under the stars. It does something to me, my mind, body, and soul. I'm not sure if it's just the stillness of the night, the stars or the moon, but it does something to my soul.  Plus it's like hitting two birds with one stone. Haha that's sure an old school phrase, I mean where did that phrase come from?  lol 
I say it all of the time and I've never hit a bird! Who hits birds anyway?! lol

Okay Peej- back on track here! Walking at night is amazing! You get a break in the stillness of the night and disconnect from the energy of everything at your home, and then you get some exercising in too after dinner. 
A win win!

Another thing I've noticed is laying or sitting there playing Candy Crush or any video game where your looking at the game and trying to solve or figure something out that you're seeing on a screen.  It takes your mind away from reality for a while.  You're not thinking about work or your relationship issues while you're on level 67 on Candy Crush and you're trying to get to the next level for the last 25 minutes haha it's impossible! Because your mind is in a space where is connected to that game, trying to plan the next move, thoughts of life are pushed aside because you're using strategy to complete that level and move on to the next. Never thought you'd hear that come out of my mouth huh?! LOL

Another thing that really helps me is getting a foot massage or full body massage. I love love love massage. I lay there, they soak my feet and then massage me.  Sometimes when I'm laying there I want to think or listen to my Spirit Guides talk while laying there and I just say, "I'm taking some "Me Time" right now, come back later."  And I just lay there and feel how amazing it feels to feel the warm hands massaging me and I feel how relaxed I am and how I feel in that moment.

Something I tell clients to read a book. Not a self help book, because that allows you to think about yourself and you do a lot of reflective thinking. It has to be a love story or a thriller or mystery so that when you're reading it you're actually in your head, as if you're watching a movie in your mind.  I'm not much of a reader so I can't relate, but this is something my Guides bring forward all of the time.  For me to read a book I have to be on an elliptical or treadmill to read.  I know- Crazy huh?!  But very true LOL

Guided meditation is also great for those of us that are always in our heads. When you listen to a guided meditation your eyes are closed and your hearing someone taking you through a journey and your relaxed and heart is open to this amazing journey that someone is guiding you through.  A lot of healing comes from guided meditation.  It works with your subconscious mind.  I love guided meditations. I have several on YouTube under "Medium Peej".

Another good "Me Time" exercise is listening to music, the kind where you are singing the lyrics. When you listen to your favorite music it feels good, it does something to your soul, plus how can you think about your stressful work issues when you're singing the words to an amazing song?  Now wait a minute. .. I'm not talking about listening to county music or some Marvin Gay, which usually are love story based songs, especially if you're having relationship issues!  That would just activate energy and the whole point is to disconnect.  Make sense? Just music that you like and that you can sing the words to. I mean feel good music. La♪la la♪♫ la la🎶 
And dance to it.  Move your body.  Get that energy flowing and shake it! 


These exercises allow us to disconnect mentally from our life, body, and thoughts, and allows us to be open to peace and stillness. The results are amazing. I always come back recharged, refreshed and stronger!

Like Cora says in my favorite movie "Madea goes to Jail, Madea calls her daughter and asks where she is because she isn't supposed to drive and she needed a ride. Cora says, I'm getting my hair done, I'm having some "Me Time" let's just say Madea was not happy about her taking time for herself and she let her know. I love that movie. It does something to "MY" soul lol
We all think about and WANT "Me Time" , but life, work, our children, friends or just life get in the way.  Life and people are always going to want our time until we decide our body and soul NEEDS "Me Time", it will go to the bottom of our list of importance and not be a priority. And things I notice when I don't make time for me is I start getting snippy, or fatigued or exhausted feeling.  I feel like I'm on a treadmill or hamster wheel and I exert a lot of energy but get know where or get very little done.

Make time and make it priority- trust me, you will notice a huge difference in life. I know it brings me peace!

Thank youfor reading and I am sending you love and light.

Thank you everyone for all of the wonderful reviews on Yelp!!!  (Even if Yelp has filtered half of them :(   that's a whole "other" blog for another day hahah!!

I feel very blessed to be a Spiritual Healer and enjoy what gifts God has blessed me, my body & soul with, and the ability of being able to help, guide & inspire, and meet so many wonderful and amazing people!  I work with Spirit, which means I hear, feel and see Spirit.  I don't use cards or ask any questions- like what is your birthday or what questions do you have today!  I say,"Sit down, shut up, and put your seat bealt on!"  with a smile and chuckle of course! LOL  and then I channel the messages I hear, feel and see!  Nine times out of ten you won't have questions when I'm done with you! ha
 
Reading reviews to me, is great to hear, and to see how I helped and how they felt and feel, but I love reviews because they really help explain to everyone (that don't know me-) how I read and that I am the "real deal" and not a gypsy fake!! LOL!  So thank you again it really really helps!
