Caring Communications

It is quite a common occurrence to hear people talk about experiences using the word "you" instead of "I".  Why is that?  Many people avoid "I" statements in order to not have to confront their own feelings on a situation or issue or to avoid making themselves vulnerable in any fashion. In some way I can understand this. When I have shared some posts on Facebook using  the "I" perspective, I have received rather desperate responses telling me how to fix "me" or my situation, as if sharing my experience, strength and hope is a cry for help even when there is no hint of   request for help in the text.

Your Inner Child: A workshop

Your Inner Child Workshop You are never too old, too wise, or too “advanced” to improve upon your relationship with your beautiful and wise Inner child. At Life Path Healings we teach you to go inside and connect, to Self so you can be receptive to the Teachings and Healings of Spirit. If no one is home, in your body, in your emotions, in your current life, then there is no one home to receive Guidance from Spirit.   Your Higher-Self, unlike other spiritual guides that you may have (or think you have) has only one agenda: Your highest good for the evolution of your Soul.   It does not represent any other groups, opinions or agendas.   Your Higher Self is concerned with your life lessons. Your Higher Self keeps you on your Path, and keeps you connected to Source.   Your Higher-Self is that energetic part of you that is in constant contact with the Divine Source. It is that divine relationship to Source which functions as the central coordinator of your li...
