Soon I will be celebrating a very eventful anniversary. You see it was April of 2003 when I received my Master/Teacher Degree in Reiki. The very next week, I applied for my business license, bought a massage table and I became a Healing Practitioner of Energy Medicine and Intuitive Counseling.
This was joyfully supported by the Universe; as clients and referrals easily flowed through my door.
When I look back to those early days of my Practice, I remember my clients walking in to my healing room and they would comment how welcoming, clear and peaceful the energies made them feel.
After filling out a form, they would lie on the massage table and begin to feel the recharging, relaxing Reiki energies calming their nervous systems and rebalancing them.
In 2003, Reiki was starting to be used more and more in hospitals, hospices and cancer centers. With the National Institute of Health and the World Health Organization classifying it as ‘Energy Medicine”, the benefits were shown to be amazing.
By replenishing the energy within the body which had been compromised and diminished by tension and illness, Reiki was shown to reduce stress, provide pain relief, charge the immune system and increase the body’s natural ability to heal itself.
These benefits were evident in my sessions; as clients experienced not only pain relief, but they felt at peace, totally relaxed and clear as if someone or something had vacuumed away all their inner fog. They left my practice floating out the door with a renewed sense of calm and balance.
Some weeks later, I received a call from these very clients stating that, all the wonderful feelings from my session had dissipated and they needed to come back for another restorative energy boost.
In the following weeks I noticed that I had this very same conversation with several clients. After hearing this repeatedly, I really began to take studied notice of what God, Angels, the Universe were trying to tell me.
My first thought was, “What the H*ll are these clients doing???” After all, my sessions relieved their pain and brought them back to a place of wholeness and balance. Trying to figure it out, I turned my attention to the way that I chose to comport my own life.
I thought, I don’t need to go to another Healing Practitioner to keep my energies flowing, positive, bright, healthy and happy. In practicing the art of living a life of conscious awareness- physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually-I always choose positive, loving, non-judgmental thoughts, words and feelings in my heart. These high vibrational energies continually fill me with such beautiful positive energies that they are like a well-spring of abundance filling me with joy and health. These energies not only nourish me, but they also spill out into the world and uplift everyone that I meet.
Being very fresh and young, I was certain that I was being of best service by “saving” and “fixing” my clients by replenishing their diminished energies.
After all, I had been well-trained, and was accomplished in the healing arts. With my knowledge and application of Reiki at their disposal, all they needed to do was to be lifted energetically and they would be ‘healed’.
(I am so embarrassed to think of how naïve I was to think this way. But I guess that is where the expressions ‘impetuous youth’ and the ‘wisdom of experience” come from.)
I began to delve deeper into exactly what it was that I was actually providing for my clients.
After some careful thought, it dawned on me that without the acknowledgement of what these clients had chosen to focus their attentions on and the non-beneficial choices that they had continually made in their lives, it really didn’t matter how extraordinary the Reiki energy sessions were. In the end, these clients all went back to their ‘normal’ lives and all the beautiful, rebalancing, peaceful energies would not be sustained; as they did not realize their contribution to their emotional or physical un-wellness.
The Angels then showed me a vision of a colander, as clients were allowing all the positive energies to sieve out of their lives by not taking accountability and refocusing their energies.
It was then, that I decided to begin the sessions by asking each client to tell me the story of their life.
As they spoke, my Intuitive Counseling would begin; as I showed the client their life from a higher perspective. With this Angel’s view, they could clearly see their negative habits and destructive patterns and how their very own thoughts, words, feelings and actions had perpetuated negativity and lead them to emotional and physical un-wellness. (Actually, what they began to see was how powerful and limitless they were to have carefully crafted and constructed quite a negative life.) With this limitless and boundless ability to create this kind of life, they became aware that they could also-in any given moment-begin to create a new and very different ‘reality’ for themselves. They began to understand that all their life, they had chosen a palette of paints containing dark blacks and grays and browns to paint their reality. With this new accountability and acknowledgment of what their previous ‘color’ choices had brought them, they became very excited as they began to choose very different color choices to form their new pallet of paints. Consciously choosing uplifting, light filled paints from their new pallet, their life very quickly began to change and reflect their new brighter color choices.
Once the client consciously understood their contribution to their diminished ‘life force energy’, we then spoke about the individualized practical tools that they could follow to keep their energies positive and joy filled.
I didn’t realize it at the time, but what I was really helping my clients to do-and the most crucial component of the session that was so desperately missing- was to restore their faith in the sound of their own voice. In this way, sometimes for the very first time in their lives, they would have the opportunity to be acknowledged and listened to.
By this one, seemingly simple act of demonstrating to my clients how much I truly loved and cared about them and acknowledged to them that they had the right to be heard, their overwhelming cathartic releases were extraordinary.
From this one realization, my sessions provided- and to this day-provide a haven of acknowledging the Divine in my clients.
Each and every one of us is an aspect of the Divine in human form. Throughout my journey as a Healing Practitioner, the more that I choose to truly listen with my loving heart and provide a safe sanctuary for others to finally peer out from behind their self-made mask of denying who they really are,
myself and the client begin to experience the miracle of the renewal of the Divine within ourselves.
Happy Anniversary to Me!!!
Love and Blessings,

I HAVE ASCENDED ENOUGH! Where in the H*ll is my Twin-Flame??
How is your ascension going these days??? Ascension, you might say, what ascension? Well, the more we choose to live from a more unified, accepting, and loving awareness, the more our choices begin to reflect this awakened state.
As many of us are consciously living a ‘heightened’ sense of awareness, we diligently incorporate this knowingness into higher vibrating, more beneficial choices in our lives.
For instance, from a dietary standpoint, many of us have cleaned up our diets to showcase more foods that are grown organically, to drinking pure water, and filtering foods with artificial color, flavoring, additives and preservatives.
From a spiritual point of view, many have taken up forms of meditation to get in touch with our higher selves, and read many New Age self-help books to help us with our new sense of being.
There are even those who no longer compromise their souls for just money and have honored themselves as to doing work that is nurturing and nourishing t their soul.
We take our reusable bags to the grocery stores to protect the environment; we diligently recycle and give what we can to the homeless and less fortunate.
So, within our conscious lives of awareness…How is your love life?? (If, you don’t mind me asking.)
I hear from so many clients and students that everything is going beautifully in their lives, yet the one area that has still eluded them is a precious, cherished beloved partner to share their life with. A love that allows them to be themselves without any game playing and is built on a solid foundation of honesty, transparency, honor and respect, which one does not have to compromise any aspect of ‘who they are’ in order to be in the relationship. A love that they burn and hunger for; as their heart yearns for a love of Divine proportions.
The good news is that not only do these relationships exist, but they are in each and every person’s capacity to experience this love.
What most people on the Planet have been experiencing when it comes to finding love is ‘Soul Mate” relationships. And while there is beautiful love in them, they come in with irritation, agitation, and drama that pushes our buttons. They do this in order to reflect on to us something that we have to clean up within ourselves. They are there to create this contrast and annoyance, in order to help us honor ourselves, to grow and make movement forward for us to clean up our Karma.
So how are you with playing the Soul Mate game? It’s pretty challenging and disheartening, isn’t it? How do you know if it is a Soul Mate relationship? Well, if there is anything that irks you in any way shape or form or makes you feel like you can’t be yourself, than it probably is one.
Sick and tired of feeling used or compromised in love?
Well, it is time to step up to the next level in the ascensions process.
I am living proof that this is not only possible, but relatively easy to do now that you have consciously started to live all the above steps on the way to ascension.
In 2003, after living 47 ½ years in which I was a victim and gave my power away in order to be loved, I started to look seriously at what I was doing to have attracted these less then desirable relationships to myself, and started to practically live a very different way. Within a short amount of time my reality started to reflect a very different picture.
Six months later, I drew a very different love to myself called a Twin-Flame Relationship.
Twin-Flame Relationships have been rare on the Earth plane because people’s energies have not been high enough to draw this Divine complement to themselves. In fact, A Twin-Flame is the only other person in any space, time or dimension who is the completion of who you are. When brought together, it is the original Divine representation of perfect love.
And with 2011 being the year of Disclosure (Wikileaks, Egypt collapsing, UFO Disclosures etc) the human species is waking up to the fact that we must live lives that are authentic, honest and transparent.
This information of the Twin-Flames is timely; as it grounds the Divine in human form through a beloved, cherished relationship.
Are you ready for it??
If you are ready to ditch the Soul Mate game with its often heartbreaking, soul destroying, dishonor and disrespect, then find out what you can do to draw your own Twin-Flame to yourself.
Having drawn my own Twin-Flame to myself, I have created ‘The Twin-Flame Relationship Workshop’ to help others experience this love.
This Transformational Workshop:
* Explains where Twin-Flames originated and the characteristics of such a relationship;
* Explains the difference between a soul mate relationship (your ex, parents, siblings, children, friends are all soul mates) and the extraordinary bond and heightened spiritual awareness that are shared by Twin-Flames;
* Demonstrates not only what you can consciously focus on to bring your Twin-Flame to you, but also reveals what things you are doing that are preventing you from finding your Twin-Flame.
* Provides information on how to deepen your current relationship.
For more information on where and when you can attend one of these workshops, or if you would like me to present this timely, transformational workshop to your group, business or organization, please call me on 831 277 3716.
With transforming and transmuting so much of who we are in the past years, in order to ascend, we have opened the door for new beginnings and we can feel the new energies promising to reinvigorate us with new life, new passion, and a renewed sense of purpose.
Make your next conscious decision to open up to finding out how your own Twin-Flame Relationship is possible to experience in this lifetime.
Love and Blessings, Candy

Rich Beyond Compare
As a presenter and motivational speaker, my workshops are filled with examples of the Laws of Attraction. To demonstrate the Universal Law of ‘like- attracting- like’, I weave interesting personal stories of how I re-focused my attention on what I wanted, instead of what I didn't want, and overtime my life became more positive, rewarding, and abundant. As a result of this, many of my dreams were realized.
So having experienced the results of focused desire and intention, I decided to create a new vision board for 2011.
My former vision board had worked a charm. A year previously, I had cut out a photo of a VB New Beetle and an iphone and miraculously the money manifested for both in divine timing.
I excitedly worked on my new vision board; cutting out visual representations of my dreams manifesting into physical form. Last but certainly not least, I pasted copious amounts of photos of money swirling around the pictures.
Within days of putting up the vision board, I received a call from a former Reiki II student of mine who was experiencing terrible back pain. Her Reiki session with me calmed the twisted nerves in her back and once again, she was pain free. We decided to go out to dinner afterwards and she asked to invite three of her friends that were very excited to meet me. During dinner, I mentioned that as I had recently moved to the Los Angeles area, I was thinking of different ways that I could inform more people about myself and my Healing Practice. With great excitement, my student said that months ago her Chiropractor was looking for a Reiki Practitioner to work out of her office. She said that she would send my brochure and a letter of recommendation to her Doctor. One week later, I met Dr. Iris Williams on December 22nd. There was an instant connection between us and she asked me to join Halo Chiropractic.
A similar example of how the Universe does not work in straight lines came shortly after I moved to Los Angeles. Without consciously looking for it, through a synchronistic meeting, I was enthusiastically asked to join a Wellness Center in Culver City. Although I sprinkled my brochures and business cards around the clinic and spoke to many people, the clients seemed to be blocked from coming to me for some reason. The Reflexologist who worked there mentioned one day that he had a wonderful friend, who I just had to meet; as she was also a Reiki Master and a Theta Practitioner. Upon meeting each other, we connected immediately. She was very interested in the workshops that I had created and expressed interest in coming along in the New Year.
Now what does all of this have to do with my vision board you may well ask?
Looking back to my vision board, I asked for more money; and lots of it. And if the Universe worked in straight lines, taking us on a direct journey from point A to point B, then from the time I created my vision board and turned around, I would have fallen over a huge pile of money.
But, fortunately, life does not work like that, and I’ll explain why.
As spiritual beings having a human experience, we have chosen to incarnate to work on our spiritual growth by learning lessons that we draw to ourselves. Many times these lessons can only be learned with the help of others along our path in the journey of life. Sometimes we are the ‘life line’ for someone in their time of need and at other times, our prayers are ‘magically’ answered by just the right person, appearing at just the right time. You see, by drawing my student back into my life, she brought with her wonderful connections that opened up doors of possibilities. The two of the young women that came to dinner that night have become new clients. And, in addition, one of those young women recommended me to another friend of hers, who has since, also become a new client.
Since working at Halo Chiropractic, I have acquired new clients and received greater exposure for my work as a Healing Practitioner and motivational speaker. Not only that, I get to work in a nurturing, energetically welcoming and happy office in the middle of Hollywood. (Oh, by the way, on one of my former vision boards when I lived in Australia, I had pasted up pictures of Hollywood, California thinking that Pete would be working there. Well Pete has realized his dream and is working in the film industry in LA. But, strangely enough, it is I who am now working in Hollywood.
(You can play your own version of, the Twilight Zone’ theme music here.)
In addition to these wonderful occurrences, I received a call from a lovely lady who was looking for a Reiki Master/Teacher to study Reiki with and the Colonic Practitioner at the Wellness center recommended her to me.
Looking back, all of these things occurred within 3 weeks of focusing my intension on my vision board of acquiring more money.
Having seen very tangible results in the last month of exactly how the Universe works, I have decided to ‘tweak’ my original way of thinking. Instead of refocusing my attention on what I “want” to appear in my reality, I am going to accept the fact that I am “RICH BEYOND COMPARE” and accept and allow for the limitless possibilities and ways that the Universe/God/Source/Angels wish to manifest that in my reality.
The huge difference now will be that I will be able to clearly see the abundance in exactly what shows up, rather than looking everywhere else for my limited and preconceived notion of how the Universe should be answering my prayers.
And there within the great difference lies.
By choosing to live life this way, I now live a life of acceptance and joy for exactly what turns up in my reality.
For if it is there, it has been ordered by Divine Source to be the greatest good of myself and the greatest good of all concerned.
What a relief!! I no longer have to push, plead and beg for anything to arrive in my reality, in any other way than it is presented to me.
And with this feeling of letting go to what is, I feel so much more empowered as I have given myself permission to, “Do my best, and leave the rest.”
Caution:If you choose to accept what is, instead of constantly forcing what isn’t, you just might find yourself being happier, more balanced and more 'gosh darned' peaceful than you ever possibly imagined that you could be in your whole life!

Reiki and The Military???
As a Reiki Practitioner for the last 8 years, I have experienced the transformative effects that energy medicine has had on my clients emotional and physical wellbeing. Although the results of the treatments were often amazing, many people had not heard of nor experienced Reiki before.
Well, what a difference a few years can make. Take for instance these quotes:
• “The next big frontier in medicine is energy medicine.”
Mehmet Oz, M.D. (one of the most respected surgeons in the U.S. and the Director of the Cardiovascular Institute at the Columbia University College of Physicians and Surgeons.
• “In every culture and in every tradition before ours, healing was accomplished by moving energy.” Albert-Szent-Gydrgyl, Nobel Laureate in Medicine
These are recent examples of individuals in conventional medicine, and the more traditional disciplines, who are publically recognizing the importance of BioTherapy or energy medicine as a healing discipline.
In addtion, Reiki is recognized by the World Health Organization and many hospitals and cancer centers have already enhanced their own services by including Reiki as part of their extended range of services. ‘According to the American Hospital Association, in 2007, 15% or over 800 American hospitals offered Reiki as part of hospital services.'^^ They go on to state that,‘The popularity of Reiki in hospitals had been largely driven by requests from patients and by nurses and doctors who have experienced its value.'^
So, I guess I really should not have done a double take, when I saw this article on
the use of Reiki in the military.
"The United States Army unveiled a $4 million program to mend the psyches of returning veterans through Reiki and other bioenergies [http://blog.wired.com:80/defense/2008/03/army-bioenergy.html.] The Department of Veterans Affairs uses Reiki in their Hepatitis C treatment program. Fort Bliss’ Warrior Resilience program — the same one Army Chief of Staff Gen. George Casey believes should be replicated throughout the military — uses it as one tool to help soldiers strengthen and recover following combat." In fact, Military OneSource's Health Library says Reiki can increase wellness and "treat diseases of all types."
These findings put a whole new meaning on the phrase..."if it's good enough for the military, it's good enough for me."
Yet, no matter how many organizations and doctors are singing the praises of Reiki, the proof of a healing system is ultimately whether it works or not.
I'll leave the last quote to a medical doctor:
“Reiki is increasingly being incorporated into modern medicine because of one compelling reason, It works….” Larry Dossey, M.D.
Stay well and keep your energies high!!

Synchronicity, Intuition and your Happy Heart
There has been a really good explanation why there has been such a long time between blogs-
· Publishing and marketing my first book “Angels of Faith”
· Recording my first in a series of 12 angel meditation CD’s and
· Redesigning my website.
If there was any time left over I slept and ate.
Yet now, as they say…SHE”S BACK!!!
In this blog, I’d like to revisit the absolutely amazing magical world of synchronicity and our intuitions that we all get to listen to and act upon in our lives or not.
The dictionary definition of synchronicity is ““the experience of two or more events that are causally unrelated occurring together in a meaningful manner. To count as synchronicity, the events should be unlikely to occur together by chance”.”.
As synchronicity can only be observed in the present moment, I help my clients release, anger, sadness, bitterness, regret and resentment, which keeps them firmly anchored and reacting to the past. As well as letting go of worry, tension and control which keeps them living in the future and draining their energies on the ‘possibility’ of things that haven’t eventuated.
Where our intuition comes in, when synchronicity happens, is whether or not we take a leap of faith and act upon what is right in front of our eyes. (The main reason people disregard synchronicities is because they can’t logically see where they are going to lead. And it is not for us to ‘logically’ figure life out, because quite frankly, the Universe does not work to ‘our’ logic.
Now that I have my book in hand, all my efforts and laser beam focus attention have been to find places to market this enchanting timeless story. (Just briefly “Angels of Faith” is based on my two near death experiences and the ultimate journey of crossing over we all get to make. For more info visit www.angelhealinghouse.com ) Because of its message of faith, hope and grace, it is such a wonderful healing tool and I have been sending the book to hospices, bereavement centers and hospitals. So I guess consciously and/or unconsciously I have been asking for my book to connect with the best people and places to help others to realize our divine inheritance and limitless natures. Now with this in mind…
Last Saturday, a friend who had been shopping at a great store in downtown Santa Barbara told me that the manager asked her if she wanted to work in the store over Christmas. Declining her offer, she said she knew someone who would be perfect. Out of the blue, my friend calls and tells me to meet her at the store at 11 o’clock the next morning as they are just starting to hire. Was I looking for a part-time job..no. Do I have enough on my plate..yes. But the more I thought about working at this particular store, I started to get so excited inside. The next morning saw me filling out an application and two days later, I was interviewed and enthusiastically hired part-time by the manager. During the interview, I showed the manager my brochure for my healing practice and Reiki and she said she knew Reiki practitioners from the Susan B. Komen Cancer Center. (This company does a lot of promotional tie-ins working with women who have breast cancer.)
Not mentioning this conversation to any one, two days later, during a workshop I held, one of the participants told me that she had been speaking to the director of the Susan B. Komen Cancer Center and will be possibly doing work for them as a spokesperson. Boy did my antennae start to vibrate. What does this mean and where is it heading?
Well it is not for me to know. The signs are showing me that I am on the right track for people and connections, to easily and -without much effort on my part –fall into place to get my books and CD’s widely publicized. I just have to keep making sure I follow that happy feeling in my heart.
Until next time, follow your happy feelings!
Love and Blessings, Candy

Time of Introspection
I don't know about you, but I have been experiencing a very quiet time since the Aug. eclipse. To me, it felt like being pushed through a huge energetic portal of higher frequency. Besides adjusting to the usual physical manifestations of higher energies i.e backaches, little to no energy, neck and head aches, dizzyness, etc. I have felt like I am in the eye of the storm. The quiet, in fact, has been eerie with hardly any communication i.e phone calls, emails.
From a human point of view, many would start to go into panic mode and see this as a bad thing; as we have been programmed to be "human doings" and not "human beings". Many believe if they are not being productive, then they are wasting time.
But, by choosing to see quiet time or down time as a much needed time for introspection, rest, and regrouping, then we start to work in conjuction with the Universe. Life always goes in cycles-sometimes we are busy and when we are, we don't have time to enjoy life and wish for quiet times. Then when we are given quiet time, we fret that we are not busy.
It is during these quiet times that I have come to discover that the universe is arranging all the puzzle pieces (sychronistic signs, connections and situations) that will help me on the next part of my journey. From my connection to the angelic realm and my spirit guides, I know that it takes a heck of alot of maneuvering and planning on their part to arrange synchronicities. If there is quiet time in my life, I know that it is always there for my highest good and that things always get busy again. One thing is certain is that things change-they always do.
To help me in the quiet times I keep reminding myself that:
"When nothing is happening, God is up to something. "
In this way, I can let go and know that everything is being taken care of.

Candy

There are no Coincidences
I am one to believe that we are continually creating our reality in everything we think, say and feel. And with this belief, I live a conscious life of awareness -in the present moment -being mindful of signs and synchronicities to help me along my journey in life. Having said this..
Today I was skipping to the bank, when I almost trod on a tiny baby bird on the sidewalk. He was so sweet. I knelt down and picked him up. He loved sitting in my hand. I gave him some Reiki energy healing-perhaps he fell out of a tree-and then put him at the base of some bushes.
So lets look at this sign-Birds represent flying and freedom, they also are messengers that bring news. The fact that he was a baby, indicates to me that soon their will be a birthing of a new idea, a new connection or a new venture that will fly my way. And as I was on the way to the bank when it happened, it is something new which will be financially lucrative for me.
I'll keep you posted as to what flys into my life.
What's your interpretation??
