ADD, ADHD, OCD, ODD, and other diagnosis or labels used to describe symptoms such as defiance, repetitive behaviors, lack of attention span, over activity, aggression, impatience, lack of impulse control, forgetfulness and many other umbrella symptoms could also describe many spiritual labels such as Indigos, crystal or rainbow children, children of the light, starseeds, sensitives and many others.
Spiritually the indigo and alike children are embraced for their "symptoms" They are taught to embrace their challenges and are taught balance and other techniques to strengthen which ever area they struggle in. You see they came here for a reason. They came here to create change here on earth. The world need massive change and these children came here to make it happen.
The reason they have such broad terms in the medical field is because they came here to different jobs. Some will not conform and fight you on everything you ask them to do, they want reasons and sense when you are manipulating or deceiving them in any way. They will speak their truth and usually in an inappropriate way until they are taught how to speak their truth with integrity and respecting others at the same time. Some came to create great and ingenious systems and products and thoughts. Some have an extreme abundance of energy so they can carry out their task, which will need an abundance of energy. Some only take in what they will need for their mission here on earth so everything else others are trying to teach them, they couldn't care less.
Medically and socially they are outcasts, isolated, punished, made fun of, and worst of all medicated. The medications used to stop or lessen the symptoms of ADD, ADHD, ODD, OCD go straight to the part of the brain which connects us to spirit and all of our spiritual gifts....the pinial gland in the center of the brain.
Parents who put their children on medication do not understand or have the support, or feel pressure by the school system and doctors. I know this cause I was one of them for a short period of time !! When your child is struggling with anything you only want to help and unfortunately doctors only think meds and the school system only thinks "what will make this child stop so we can teach and they can learn". Most doctors, teachers, principals and other professionals involved with your child mean well, but when million of children in the past 10 have all of sudden started showing these extreme behaviors, one should wonder..... how many will there be in another 10 years ?, or 20 years ? Will everyone be on meds for these symptoms ??
I think not. We need to teach our children how to heal not medicate. Most of these children take them selves off their medication in early teens and start medicating with pot, alcohol, sex and other feel good habits. This is not good, seeing as in another 5 years or so the millions of children now taking meds to cope with their symptoms will be teenagers.
We are Spirituality In You are doing everything we can to change this. We have children's workshops to help them connect spiritually to their gifts. We are also trying to get energy treatments, like reiki and therapeutic touch into the school system. We have a group on face book https://www.facebook.com/pages/Spirituality-In-You/374228612640313?id=374228612640313&sk=events for updates on our progress.
There are answers besides medication and we are trying to get that out there. Its not easy and parents, teacher, and other caregivers that work with these children, I send you my love and good thoughts, cause I know how difficult it can be to struggle not knowing where to turn or how to make change. Please join us on face book and show your support on giving these kids a fair change to be who they were meant to be, to learn to balance what ever it is they struggle with, to shine their gifts without dulling them with meds and labels that harm them emotionally, socially, mentally, even physically !! We need you !! They need you even more !!!

#What is Feng Shui ?
Feng shui is a practical form of art that uses a combination of intuition with a somewhat flexible map called a bau gua map. It requires the adjustments the placement of things such as furniture, colors used within a room, nic nacs and art placement. You have the option to make more extreme adjustments such as changing the usage of a room, repainting, extreme de cluttering or front and backyard makeovers.
Feng shui literally means “wind” (feng) and “water” (shui) and can help you increase your health, energy, wealth, relationships and your general well being. It considers the elements of water, wood , fire, air and also includes metal. The bau gua map gives a general out line of furniture placement, color usage within different areas of your home, and placement of room accents, such as wall pictures, plants, nic nacs and other objects you want within a room. It even offers tips on how to use tools such as wind chimes and mirrors to help where the usually remedy will not work.
The benefits of using feng shui within your space are noticeable immediately. It will create a good flow of energy (chi) within the area it is used on. Feng shui doesn't have to be difficult or expensive. These simple yet powerful methods clear your space of old and stagnant energy giving a wonderful boost of good clear energy. You can keep it as simple or go as in depth as you would like. Any adjustment will benefit. It only makes sense that the more in depth effort and intention you put into it, the more benefit you will see.
Your intuition will be your greatest asset here as it will guide you to what feels right and what may still be causing some blockage of energy. You want your space to have good energy flow and your intuition will guide you. Using the techniques the bau gua map teaches in combination with your intuition will be very beneficial to any space.
This is just the basics of what Feng shui is and some of the benefits to learning and applying it to your home or work space. You can find pictures of the bau gua map and how to apply it to your space on Google and You Tube. I encourage you to read up and learn more about this intuitive art that not only benefits your health but many other areas of your life too !!

What is a medicine bag used for ?
A medicine bag is a bag that has items that are sacred or have especial meaning to you spiritually or have some kind of healing relevance to you from along your journeys. It may have items such as crystal, herbs, feathers, bones, rocks or anything else that has meaning to you.
Your medicine bag may be something you wish to carry with you at all times, like a protection amulet or just feels right to keep it with you because you call upon the item within it often. You can keep your pouch on a string around your neck or even keep it another back you keep with you such as a back pack or even keep in your pocket or tied to your wrist.
If you do not wish to keep your medicine bag on you then you want to keep it in a special or sacred space such as your alter or on a shelf that you keep your spiritual tools , or even near the place you feel most comfortable doing prayer or carrying out rituals.
There are no rules to having, making, or carrying a medicine bag. It is always about what feels right to you and you experience, what has significance to you, and what your intention of having or carrying a medicine bag is.
There are different reasons someone would have one of these bags. They may be some type of healer and the tools they wish to use are kept within it and carried for convenience. Some one may have had many experiences that have taught them big lessons and showed them their true strength and they have items in which are a reminder as to their strength when they are in challenging times. This is a form of medicine. Again there are no right or wrong reasons to have a medicine bag.
Only remember to respect and give gratitude to your items and the pouch in which you carry them, cause if they are significant enough to be considered or used as medicine, then they should be appreciated, for sharing that gift with you.

Natural Flower remedies really do work !!
Bach flower remedies work with energy. It uses the energy within the plant or flower as a remedy to particular challenges or ailments. Energy is everywhere. Scientist now agree that everything is made up of energy. All things are energy from plants, animals, people, and solid structures can even be broken down to energy.
All energy vibrates at a particular frequency, and every frequency level sustains certain qualities or attributes. When a plant is placed into a liquid with the intention of transferring its particular energy to the liquid, this energy is preserved in the liquid in order to use at a later time.
Bach flower remedies are liquids that contain the energy of specific plants. The plants used vibrate a particular levels that aid in treating things such as guilt, repetitive behaviors, impatience, indecisiveness, and many others.
They are completely natural and there are many ways of using them, most commonly you place a few drops in the mouth as needed, or if it is preserved in an alcohol base, and dislike the taste you can place the drops on your skin, Regardless your body will absorb the energy as needed.
Energy is the everything and Bach Remedies are a great example of what we can do with energy !!!

*Energy vampires will drain your energy, unless you stop them !!
Ever been around someone who can zap all your energy just being around them ? or know someone who makes you feel drained whenever you give them your time, whether it be over the phone, face to face, or even over the internet through conversation ? They some how manage to bring your mood from happy to...... wondering why your no longer happy. And if you are an empath, clairsentient, or emotionally sensitive, you will be the main source of energy they focus on, as you have a giving nature and your souls purpose is to help others and give your time and energy.
Energy vampires thrive and survive on other peoples energy. They can not sustain their own energy level so they must feed off others energy to keep them functioning. Some know they are doing this and use it to their advantage by using others time, energy, emotion, by unloading their problems on you on a regular basis, while doing nothing to really help them self or by picking arguments, creating tension in order to feed off the energy the interaction creates.
Others don't really know they are doing this, they believe they are helpless and a victim of the universe. They ask for help and when you give it, nothing is ever is really accomplished because after your efforts are given they do not sustain momentum, unless someone else is doing it for them. A good motto here is....Be willing to help those, who are willing to help themselves ! They may not do it intentionally but none the less they do it.
These are energy vampires. There are many more examples of the types but in the end, they ALL thrive on your energy and anyone else who will give it to them. They are the chronic complainers, the pessimistic the manipulators, the narcissus's, the gas lighters, the ones who like to argue or twist your words, the ones who talk negative about you, the ones who want you to do their work, they are the ones who bring you down intentionally or unintentionally. Energy vampires are every where. You meet them almost every day. They can be your neighbors your parents, customers, co workers, friends, in laws, strangers, even your own children !
Now just because they take your energy does not necessarily mean they are bad people and you should cut them out of your life. There are ways to help deal with these people once you can identify them. You can use simple visualization techniques to place a protective energy shield between you and the other person or persons. Visualizing white light surrounding you or an impenetrable shield of protection, stopping all lower vibrations from connecting with you.
You can carry crystals or gemstones in your pocket that help with clearing up negative energy directed toward you. There are protection stones, transmuting stones, there is a stone for everything. When it is appropriate you could even give them your stone to help them with their struggles.
You must be clear about your boundaries with these people. If you do not have appropriate boundaries on how you will allow other people to treat you.... now is the time to get them. Speak them and mean it. Do not let others take advantage of you or engage in arguments that only serve to feed them your energy, time and attention.
Limit your time with these individuals and do not, do for them them, what they can do for themselves. Helping is always good but be sure your helping and not enabling them to use you or think they are not capable themselves.
Do not engage in power struggles and walk away when you find yourself being pulled into an argument or a lower energy conversation that will really do no good or accomplish anything.
Everyone in our lives need help from time to time, a shoulder to cry on, and ear to vent to, and harsh words are even spoken from time to time, but when this is a regular thing, something is out of balance and if it's not corrected... that is when you are left with symptoms such as fatigue, anxiety, frustration, resentment, even with a short term head aches, aches, tension, or upset stomach and just an overall feeling of being drained, when prior to your time spent with them you were fine.
Using protection is as simple as asking Spirit to place a bubble or wall of protection around you that will stop you from absorbing anyone's negative energy, and to stop others from taking your energy...... period !!

These people are everywhere and most of us have to admit we have been an energy vampire at some point ourselves, but now that you know how to identify one, you can take measures to avoid the loss of your energy , through someone else taking it without your permission and you can be mindful not take someone else's !

#Making a spiritual altar
Making an altar is a lot simpler than many realize and using it, is just as easy. An altar is created as a sacred or meaningful spot that has a collection of meaningful items you have collected along your journey or items that have special meaning to you.
You may use you altar for many reason. Some use it to pray or offer thanks to their God or their Angels or Guides. Some use it to practice rituals or spell casting. Some go to it when they are grieving or having a hard time dealing with something. Some just simply light a candle or some incense or burn cleansing herbs. An altar is a nice safe place where you can be you and practice your faith, what ever it may be.
When you set up an altar, your intention is to create a space where you can show your reverence for the universe !!
What you choose to use as your altar as well as it's location is also what ever feels right to you. Some use a small table, or a fancy plate or glass dish, the top of a bookshelf or wall shelf, some use their dresser or small area on the counter. It really doesn't matter what you use, as long as you are comfortable in that space or area. The room also matters very little, kitchen, bedroom, family room, closet, dining room, even bathroom is perfectly fine so long as you are able to relax and be comfortable enough to do what you want to do.
The items you choose to place on your altar have only to have special meaning to you. Others may have some of the same objects as you but most likely there are very few alters that look the same. Angels, candles, incense, lucky objects, special rocks or gemstones, oils, glass figurines, animal symbols are a few common items that can be found on ones altar.
Some other items that may be found are bells, essential oils, oil burners, protection symbols, prayers, affirmations, crystals, cauldrons, herbs, salts, feathers, keys, rings or jewelry, shells, coins as well as many, many other items. The item will have relevance to your journey, it will have deeper meaning to you and no items are off limits, so long as the item bring reverence or love to you when seeing it.
An altar need not, to be complicated. It only needs your faith and what ever else is just more intention put into your project. You altar can be big or small, fancy or simple. Most start small and grow as the years go by. Hopefully this clears up any complicating thoughts in regards to creating "the right" altar. Have fun creating your sacred space and know it is perfect just for you !!!

What you choose to use as your altar as well as it's location is also what ever feels right to you. Some use a small table, or a fancy plate or glass dish, the top of a bookshelf or wall shelf, some use their dresser or small area on the counter. It really doesn't matter what you use, as long as you are comfortable in that space or area. The room also matters very little, kitchen, bedroom, family room, closet, dining room, even bathroom is perfectly fine so long as you are able to relax and be comfortable enough to do what you want to do.
The items you choose to place on your altar have only to have special meaning to you. Others may have some of the same objects as you but most likely there are very few alters that look the same. Angels, candles, incense, lucky objects, special rocks or gemstones, oils, glass figurines, animal symbols are a few common items that can be found on ones altar.
Some other items that may be found are bells, essential oils, oil burners, protection symbols, prayers, affirmations, crystals, cauldrons, herbs, salts, feathers, keys, rings or jewelry, shells, coins as well as many, many other items. The item will have relevance to your journey, it will have deeper meaning to you and no items are off limits, so long as the item bring reverence or love to you when seeing it.
An altar need not, to be complicated. It only needs your faith and what ever else is just more intention put into your project. You altar can be big or small, fancy or simple. Most start small and grow as the years go by. Hopefully this clears up any complicating thoughts in regards to creating "the right" altar. Have fun creating your sacred space and know it is perfect just for you !!!

*How to cleanse/smudge yourself and home
Cleansing often times called smudging is a technique most commonly used to clear an area or something of energy. Herbs are gathered and usually bound in string with the intention of burning them in order to cleanse yourself or a space or a property of negate energy or lower vibrations. Herbs can be bound together into stick, left loose, or even mixed, depending on the intention and personal preference.
There are many types of herb that can be used. Some common ones are......
White Sage - exceptional at clearing negativity.
Sweet grass - calls forth positive energy and spirits.
Mug wort - know to increase psychic abilities and offers protection.
Lavender - clears a space and promotes a relaxed environment.
Cedar - clears negative energy and brings wisdom.
Some common reasons for smudging would be.......
-To clear a specific room or entire home of old, stagnant energy, invite in good energy or to clear away low vibrational energy left over from a traumatic incident, a lower vibrational visitor or an argument between family, even a negative or traumatic phone call.
-To clear old energy from a home you may be moving into. Clearing the entire home and property, clears the prior owners energy, leaving a fresh energy to start with.
-To clear a space, room, or circle in which you would like to call upon Divine guidance, through meditation or ritual for example. You can not only clear energy but also call in different energies burning different herbs.
-To cleanse yourself after a particularly hard day, like encountering a number of negative people or after witnessing something intense, scary or traumatic.
-To burn particular herbs to honor, revere or thank specific spirits for their guidance or help.
-Some may feel the presence of negative energy or earth bound spirits (ghosts) in their home or on their property. You can use cleanse/smudge while holding the intention that those spirits are not welcome there.
-You may feel the need or be asked by a family member or friend, to cleanse/smudge their energy or space. If some one is going through a hard time, whether grief, fear, illness, chaos, negativity, depression, anxiety, rage, resentment, smudging can be a beneficial tool to help clear these energies from them.
There is really no specific way to to cleanse/smudge using herbs. The main ingredients are intention, faith and gratitude. Light your herbs, blow out the flame and use the smoke to start clearing. Its a good idea to do all the nooks and crannies of the area you are clearing. Closets, beds, bushes, behind sheds, and corners are important to remember with intention when clearing larger spaces.

#Lightworker, Indigo, Crystal, Wayshower, New Age humans.
Light workers are souls or beings just like you, but have chosen to come here with the full intention of helping to heal their soul brothers, sisters, and mother earth along the way. They came here to further evolve their own soul but also every other soul they encounter. They have an inner knowing thing should not be as they are. They feel there is a different way to view how this great universe works.
Many go through very difficult times in order to have compassion and a deeper understanding of others. Some are born very awake and have many psychic abilities or are born into very spiritual families, but for the most, it isn't until their 20's, 30's, 40's, or older until, through their own experiences and challenges they begin to understand and wake up to their true calling.
Light workers are people who have deep reverence for people, animals, plants, mother earth. They have difficulties understanding the harshness in this world. Some become so troubled by the negativity and harshness, they build very thick walls around them or even resort to harsh retaliation in order to cope with the energies they are bombarded with. Drugs and alcohol are often used to desensitize the energy they are taking on around them. Once they find the right information, many are able to utilize other forms to protect themselves, such as visualization, crystals, prayers, amulets, and many others.
Light workers who are aware of their life purpose, no longer choose fear to control anything, giving them the ability to do anything they feel their heart guides them too and this is how they are able to give endlessly without any expectations. They tell others they love them and that they are special, they sense when others are down and genuinely try to help anyone who needs it, to the point of giving their last dollar or the shirt off their back because their knowing of how the universe works, allows them to know that anything and everything they need will be provided.
Light workers are here to bring light in these difficult times. They are here to move us all into new ways of living. They are strong and courageous, they are guided by their inner self and care not what others think, but care deeply about others in general.
Many reading this will feel very connected to this energy, and I encourage you to learn more. Every one has the ability to shine light upon others, to be a light worker, so please go and shine where ever you go as countless people will benefit from it !!
