One of my first blogs I wrote had to do with the missing link in our foods. (To read the full article, go to http://www.naturallyresilient.com/blog/?p=6) This missing link is an energetic link, one that is associated with a higher vibration – Love.
Now I want you to think of other things that can bring out a feeling of love. Some things may come to mind like weddings, babies and music. I want to concentrate on music; not the head-banger, rap stuff. That type of music can cause your vibration to lower not raise. (A simple muscle test can determine if the music you enjoy is helping or hurting you.) Classical is the most common music that can raise your vibration, and what type of instrument do you think of most often when you think of Classical? A violin.
My husband was talking to an artist friend Omar Barba recently who is learning violin, who said something interesting. This artist’s violin instructor had recently purchased a violin. The instructor did not want a new instrument, no they wanted a well used and cherished older one because the tone of the violin gets richer as it ages and is used.
Have you ever watched some one who loved playing the violin as they were playing? There is a look of intense concentration and rapture on their face. All that exist is them and their music; it is a form of making love to the music and the instrument. My husband and I believe that this energetic vibration of love carries through to the violin which resonates with the years of love and being cherished that it has experienced, making the tones richer and more beautiful through the years. Just like when love going into the food making it more nutritious, love goes into the violin making the sound it makes more beautiful.
Your Energy Field is Real – Young People of Today Know This
Posted by: Ann
I am anticipating this current crop of teens taking command of the world. They seem to be more in tune with the energetic world around them. I have introduced my son, who is now 16, to many of the energy healing methods, such as NAET, EFT, Reiki, and Body Talk. He has experienced some first hand and has even performed some himself.
When he was younger I showed him how you can strengthen a person by putting your palm on their forehead and how you can weaken that same person by putting the back of your hand on their forehead. I even managed to win at arm wrestling match with him by using that technique. He won’t arm wrestle with me any more.
My son understands the principle of muscle testing for what weakens your energy field. But I was still surprised when he came back from the youth mission trip this year with a new ‘trick’ to show me. This involved muscle testing and a method to weaken or strength the energy field that I did not know about.
One person would stand with their arm straight out to the side and another person would zip their energy, running a finger from mid chest, down the sternum to about the belly button. Then the arm would be pushed on to test the strength and it would be strong. Next the person would run their finger the other direction, from the belly button, up the sternum to about mid chest region. At the retest, the arm would be weak meaning the person could not resist the same pressure. They may have considered this a silly party trick, but many of our useful inventions started out as toys and interesting curiosities.
I am going to continue with Matthew 9:20-22 today. Actually the portion I want to examine is mentioned in Mark 5:30. This is where Jesus felt healing power go out of him when the woman who had been bleeding for 12 years touched his robe.
Energy is all around us, it is in all things, and it flows through all things. Some people are very in tuned to this energy.
I had been going through a rough time a couple of years ago and was attending a series of lectures about PTSD. During a break time, I was walking back to my seat when an older woman with long white hair came up to me and said “I felt energy leave me and attach to you when you walked by and I wanted you to have this”. She then pressed a crystal into my hand. I thanked her and told her I would send her energy back to her later.
On the way home, I remembered my promise and I released her energy. WOW! I felt a major release of energy flow out of me. I was amazed, why did I not feel that energy attach itself to me? There was so much of it and I was amazed that I had not felt when it had come to me. If we are not tuned into the energetic exchange around us, we do not feel it. I was turned into the energy on the way home when I released it and therefore I felt it.
Since we often do not know when an energetic exchange is going on, a good bedtime practice to get into is releasing all energy that is not your own, sending it back to whomever it belongs to and calling your energy back to you from where ever it may be. I like to send and receive the energy with the phrase “transmuted through Christ’s white light”, this cleans and raises its vibration.
Give this a try yourself and you may be in tune enough to the energy that you will feel it leave and you will be revitalized by your returning energy.
Get Congruent and Manifest Your Dreams

July 29th, 2010 >> EFT, Energy, Manifesting, Meridian Tapping, Physical/Material, Vibration
The idea of resonance and natural frequency has popped up in my awareness several times in the last few months. What do I mean by resonance?
Everything is made of energy and so has a vibration. This vibration is at a frequency that is natural to that particular item. Think of a tuning fork that when you hit it you can hear the frequency it produces. Different size tuning forks will produce a different sound. The tuning fork resonates at a frequency you can hear.
Another idea that keeps popping up that is related is congruence and natural frequency. Tesla did some experimenting with this. He was under the impression that if you could surround a person or object with the frequency of a particular place such as a clearing in the woods you could get that object to be in congruence with that clearing and that would cause the object to be transported to that place; Interesting idea.
Is this what is happening with manifesting? You need to be congruent with what you are trying to manifest. You need to be on the same resonance of what you want and then it will materialize. Think of those tuning forks again. If you have two forks that are tuned to the same vibration, when you hit one and get it going all you have to do is hold up the other and it will start vibrating at that same frequency, they are in congruence with each other.
But how do you get congruent with what you want? For one thing you have to believe it is yours. Have you ever had experiences like I have where there was a prize drawing and before they call the name you knew it was yours. That is the kind of belief you have to have. You have to know it is yours. Yes, but – that is the problem. All the ‘Yes, but’ statements that keep you from being congruent with what you want.
This is where Meridian Tapping or EFT can help out. As my husband is so fond of saying, “Tap it out”. Getting rid of all those statements can clear the field to allow you to be congruent with what you want. When you are congruent you can resonate at the same frequency of what you want and then you obtain it.

Release the Fear to Manifest the Life You Want
Posted by: Ann
June 21st, 2010 >> Energy, Life, Manifesting, Vibration
I ran across a quote the other day that I really liked. “Attitudes are more important that Facts” by Dr. Karl Menninger – psychiatrist.
Last year I did an experiment where I noted my attitude then noted how life was going. I discovered that the facts of my life, if life was being difficult or easy, followed my attitude changes. Not the other way around! I may have been feeling good about life and what was going on and then I would let my fears for the future creep in. It was after I started to feel fearful that life started spiraling downward, money started getting tight, unexpected bills started arriving. I would then pull myself together and force a more optimistic outlook and then my money situation would start to shift.
This year I am making a major effort to stay focused on optimism. I have rediscovered faith; Faith in the future, Faith in ultimate good, Faith that God has my best interest at heart, and Faith that the Universe will provide. So far that has worked well. I went through some shaky fights with fear until I decided to release it. That was about two months ago now and I have been relatively fear free since. This is amazing to me as I have had fear all my life!
From talking with others and reading personal stories I have discovered that releasing the fear is the first step to manifesting the life you want. Fear stands in the way of life’s energy. It is the flow of energy that brings things to you. Since releasing the fear, so much information has come to me about positive attitude and manifesting what you want it almost feels surreal at times. I have had moments where I have felt overwhelmingly optimistic, that nothing was impossible. This feeling causes me to feel very light of body, almost a tingly sensation. I wonder if this is a feeling of higher vibration? I can’t wait to see what happens next.
Since I was talking about crystals and my new jewelry product (Spirit Guided Jewelry) I thought I would talk about the book on crystals and gemstones I use for a reference which is The Illustrated Directory of Healing Crystals: A Comprehensive Guide to 150 Crystals and Gemstones
by Cassandra Eason. There are several books on crystals out there and some are more popular than this one. But I prefer this one as it is smaller, more concise, and easy for locating specific properties.
The crystals are divided by color with some stones being listed in several sections because they come in different colors such as quartz which comes in ‘milky quartz’, ‘clear quartz’, ‘blue quartz’, ‘rose quartz’, you get the picture. Even though these are all quartz, each type has its own properties.
Each crystal has a side bar with concise information on ‘Symbolic Associations’ some of which may be meaningful to you and some may be meaningless. The Symbolic Associations include associated zodiac sign, planet, element, candle color, guardian angel, chakra, herbs, incenses and oils, flowers, and associated crystals. I tend to only be concerned with the chakra in that section. The main description for each stone is organized into sections. The first is background information such as mythology or history of the crystal. Some of the older more well known crystals may have several paragraphs of mythology and history but most are shorter. The second section talks about the divinatory significance, this is when you randomly pick a stone and then look at it’s meaning and apply that to your life.
Next section is ‘Healing and the Environment’ which explains the stones healing properties and how to use it. For example, some stones are placed on the afflicted area others are soaked in water for a certain length of time then the water is used to gargle or drink.
Next section is the stone’s uses at work and home. This section tells you how to use the stone to help in family maters or in work related problems. The various crystals and their uses are very diverse; you have to read them for yourself.
There is a section on ‘Children and Animals’. I was surprised to see that some stones are labeled as too strong to be used with children. There were other stones I would like to tie around my cat’s neck to help with his nervous disposition.
The next section deals with ‘Psychic Associations’. This talks about clairaudience, visionary qualities, past-life recall, increasing intuition and many other properties. Of course each crystal has it own abilities and uses.
The last paragraph tells how to recharge the stone. Over time and use the stone may pick up other vibrations and need to be cleaned and recharged. Different stones may require different cleaning methods. Some stones do well laid out in full sun while others would crack if they were treated in that way.
This is a very informative book and I have enjoyed just reading over the different properties and circling which crystals I would like to have in my collection.
Create Your Own Rules
Posted by: Ann
May 8th, 2010 >> Energy, Manifesting, Physical/Material, Truth, Vibration
We all live by rules. Some rules are there to protect you. Some rules are created to level the playing field. Some rules are just to make the game more interesting.
We have legal rules to keep us safe. Then there are general and globally accepted morality rules about relationships, food, money, religion and a host of other areas. Each culture and country has rules on social behavior and acceptable ideologies. Then there are more personal rules that we create for ourselves. These rules are often a refinement of the more global rules such as: I will never find that perfect partner, the rich get richer and the poor get poorer and I just can’t lose weight.
These rules hold true of us because we created them. But on the personal level, what is true for one may not be true for another. We manifest these personal truths into being. How do you manifest them? By putting energy into the idea. To manifest something you have to start with an idea. Then you add your passion, your energy, your emotion. Over time that extra energy solidifies into reality. The reality may start as an idea, such as “I can’t lose weight” that manifest into being overweight.
From what I have read about manifesting, answered prayers and even the paranormal activity some police departments run up against, it is intense emotion that creates things. I have found from personal experience in my prayer life that the more intense, emotional prayers get answered the fastest. I have heard and read many true life stories where some one in the midst of strong anger had extraordinary experiences such as: ironing clothes with a hot iron that was never plugged in, seeing objects falling off shelves and other objects being thrown across the room, witnessing objects appear in thin air. Often when someone feels their house is haunted and they move but the haunting continues in their new home, it is because their own strong emotion about something is still with them. It is the emotion that is creating the haunting activity not another entity.
If we are so good at manifesting, why don’t we direct that energy and create a more desirable life for ourselves? I believe we are attempting to learn that right now. Some people can do that. Some people seem to have a natural ability to manifest what they want. Maybe the rest of us are trying too hard. I would love to create my own rules and manifest what I want at will. I’ll let you know when I get there.
Last October I bought a bracelet that was made of Citrine and green Aventurine. The Citrine (also known as the merchant’s stone) opens the Solar Plexus Chakra and releases joy and brings spiritual powers into the everyday world. Aventurine works on the Heart Chakra. Since I am into healing energy work I felt this bracelet with these stones and their properties would be useful to me.
I have used stones before. When I was experiencing panic attacks, I often felt like I was not all here and I was less panicky if I could pull myself together. I was told to carry Hematite to help me stay grounded. So for years I carried hematite with me until I finally used the EFT to get over my panic attacks.
Everything and every emotion is made of energy and so has a vibration. Each type of stone and crystal has their own unique vibration that can help create a certain vibration in the person who wears or carries the stone/crystal. This vibration can help create healing, or some other emotional change in the person.
I have been so impressed with the use of crystals and stones that I wanted to offer some form of jewelry on my website. I was even looking at creating some myself (but I am no jeweler and really did not want to go there). While attending a metaphysical fair, I found some one who could provide the jewelry and do one step better. She communicates with your Spirit Guides to find what crystal or stone would be of best benefit for the wearer! I talk to my guides and my client’s guides all the time but I had not considered that angle to the jewelry.
I ordered a necklace for myself, both as a proof of concept, and as a bit of a “test”. After I’d ordered my necklace, I spoke to my Spirit Guides. I told them I really wanted something blue in my necklace — maybe Turquoise because I like Turquoise, but it didn’t have to be Turquoise if they felt a different blue stone with different properties would be better. When the necklace came, guess what? It had Turquoise, about every 8th stone. The other stones are Amethyst. I then talked with Karen, the artist, about the necklace. She mentioned that there had been a bit of a “discussion” amongst the Guides about whether to use Turquoise or Lapis Lazuli (another blue stone). They finally decided on Turquoise!
I just had to sign her up in a joint venture right away. So now –Ta Da – I am offering something new on my website: “Spirit Guided” Jewelry.

Playing With Life
Posted by: Ann
April 27th, 2010 >> Change, EFT, Energy, Life, Manifesting, Meridian Tapping, Vibration
There has been an idea coming to me over the last two years. I have always heard that if something comes to you three times you better take notice. Well this has been coming at me multiple times! The last one was Sunday when we were reviewing Ecclesiastes. This is a book in the Bible that is rather cynical as one of my classmates put it. We all agreed that it sounded like a teenager blogging their deep thoughts and questions, trying to make sense out of life. There was a kernel that jumped out at me. Ecclesiastes 3:22 states “So I saw that there is nothing better for people than to be happy in their work. That is why they are here!…” This was just another version of what I have been confronted with over the last 2 years.
“Have fun”, “Play with it”, “Enjoy life” this is what I have been hearing over and over again. Am I that dull of a person that I have to keep being told to enjoy being here? My life has had some hard and rough patches or stretches over the last 18 years so maybe some one is trying to wake me up and tell me that it is ok to have fun again. It is hard to stop stressing about life when you have done it for so long. I am working with the various energy techniques I know such as EFT (Emotional Freedom Techniques), Meridian flushing and tracing, other meridian tapping techniques and of course “Law of Attraction” work.
I see playing with life, playing with energy flow, as being positive qualities that according to the “Law of Attraction” will bring more good and positive things into my life. I want to play with life and have fun!
Last year I did an experiment where I noted how I was doing emotionally and what happened in my life soon after my emotions changed. I noted that when I was feeling up and positive good things happened and life went smoothly. When I was feeling down, depressed and scared soon my life started attracting reasons to feel that way. The feelings always came first!
This year I am trying to stay positive, trying to play with life. I never thought of myself as a negative person but it has been a struggle. Writing positive words on me has helped; also shifting to anticipating good in the future is helping me stay positive. I can often feel the energy flowing and I will often stop and play with it, raising its vibration. I will keep you informed about how the “law of attraction” goes with the positive thinking.
Last Sunday I reviewed a book called The Hidden Messages in Water
Now when I start feeling down, all I have to do is think about the words I wrote on myself and those feelings come over me. The words ‘Love’ and ‘Gratitude’ seem to be the strongest.
I will continue to do this for a while and let you know if anything significant happens in my life.
