Every Gift is a Blessing
Beth Layne — Wed, 23 Jun 2010 21:34:32 +0000
Although, it definitely may not seem so for the young medium, who constantly has ghosts around him, or even for the young clairvoyant, who is constantly seeing negative images, gifts are just that – gifts, and are never, ever a curse.



The law of attraction intensely applies to those who have spiritual gifts of any nature. It is extremely important, that you stay positive, if you want to be able to help others in a positive way. When the metaphysically gifted person becomes negative, all that can be seen or felt is negative.



Staying positive does not mean, however, that you will never see, experience, feel, or otherwise receive negative information, as we are given information in order to help. This is why learning the arts of grounding and detachment are essential to the well being of those who find themselves with gifts seemingly beyond their control. Learning techniques that help one ground themselves and detach themselves from the stream of information they receive is what brings more control.



Fear is the number one negative emotion that must be worked through. Being fearful, brings more to fear, as any other emotion constantly felt brings more of the same. Learning detachment and grounding will help in this area, but most important is to realize there is nothing to fear. The visions and feelings do not belong to you, and the ghosts are not here to frighten you. Compassion is the key.

Messages from Spirit
Beth Layne — Sat, 10 Apr 2010 00:20:46 +0000
A medium or a spirit medium is a channel through which messages flow through from those who are either on the other side or stuck here as ghosts. There are many different types of mediums who channel many different variations and types of different vibration levels including those who can bring messages through from all vibration levels. Also varied are the many different ways the messages are received. Some may receive smells, symbols, hear names, words, and other information, actually see the ghost or spirit before them and/or in the mind’s eye, see scenes, or any variation of those and more, utilizing whatever means and senses available to the medium that can accomplish getting their message through.


 

Often the messages I receive make no sense to me whatsoever, but the important thing is, they have deep or special meaning to the person the message is for. I never question the messages I get from spirit when I am doing a spirit reading. It is not my job to understand the messages. It is my job to pass them to the person or persons they are intended for.


 

Involving the analytical mind in the process of receiving causes confusion, and also wastes precious time in the receiving process, especially when receiving messages from those on the other side. It takes a great deal of energy for them to come through, thus they can only stay for brief periods. For these reasons, I long ago learned to set “me” aside.


 

When having a spirit reading with a medium, it is important that you honor any and all messages or spirits that come through for you (even if it wasn’t the one you were hoping for), as all messages are given for the benefit of healing and growth, and are given in the highest form of love.


 

Many times people seek out a spirit medium to find truth in a situation involving a loved one who has passed. Often the truth may be hard to hear. Please know in these cases, the messages are still for your healing and growth, and accept them with the love in which they were sent.


 

My strongest gifts are those of mediumship and empathy. My work is not always easy, but is truly very gratifying. I am so grateful to be able to help in the healing processes of others, and welcome all who feel lead to me.












Breaking Through the Skin You’re In
Beth Layne — Sun, 18 Oct 2009 17:20:42 +0000
Do you know yourself? Do you know the spirit who lives within you and has chosen this shell, this skin you are in, to house it in this lifetime? Do you know why you have chosen this particular shell? To everything, and I do mean everything, there is a reason.



Take the time to get to know the real you. There is an incredible bright spirit that lives within you. That spirit is you. If you don’t already meditate, learn to. Learn to look at your shell from the inside out to understand who you have chosen to be in this life in order to achieve the growth and learning that you have come here to achieve.



We, as a whole, look from the outside in. We are programmed that way. The key is in reprogramming yourself to come from inside out. We are programmed to think of ourselves and view ourselves as a product of our “outside” world, or a product of our environment. What goes in from outside, combined with the gifts and tools we brought with us, becomes who we are. If you come, though, from the inside to the outside, you will come to see a beautiful difference. Your outside circumstances such as a neglected childhood, or other traumatic experiences, that you may feel have shaped who you are in a negative sense, become, instead, blessings, as you will start to see the underlying reasons for those situations or circumstances in your life.



You have chosen this shell because it fits in with the other tools, gifts, talents, obstacles, situations, and growth you chose to help you with achieving your mission or purpose, but it is truly not who you are. It is only part of the package you chose in order to have the best circumstances for success.



If you really want to get the most out of this life, get to know your shell. Really get to know your personality, positive and negative points. Overcome the negative by turning them into positives, and use the gifts, and the tools you’ve brought to make a positive difference in this world. We all can. It is no one’s choice but yours whether the difference you make is positive or negative.



Each and every person has brought a unique set of tools to work with. Your gifts or tools, are simply what you’re drawn to, and what things you do best. Other tools are things such as personality traits, life circumstances, special skills, or special areas of interest, and believe it or not, even obstacles.



I am not at all saying that everything in life is predestined. I am only saying that certain life situations are part of our greater plan to learn and grow from. What we do with it from there, is up to each one of us as individuals. We have free will to make choices and decisions that, most certainly, can and do, affect the outcome of our lives.












Embracing Your Gifts
Beth Layne — Sun, 18 Oct 2009 16:46:40 +0000
We all have gifts. Do you know what yours are? I truly believe, right down to the moment we are born, and how that relates to our talents and gifts, is planned. I truly believe we assist with that planning. Our strengths, talents, and information about what drives us, can all be found in our astrological birth charts.



This is yet another benefit of meditation. Connecting with your higher self is essential to really know what purpose your talents and gifts bring. This is invaluable to help yourself through the challenges and blocks that stand in the way of your full potential in this life.



I believe also planned, are our weaknesses and what we must overcome for our own unique spiritual growth. Understanding those challenges helps us get through them . Getting through them means we are able to radiate our talents and gifts to help others, and use them for the benefit of all.



Most of us know what our gifts are, but may not use them. Many have blocks or fear associated with their gifts, or what I like to call “family programming” to overcome. Some just haven’t yet discovered how to get from point A to point B. Wherever you are on your spiritual path, there is always more to learn on every subject.



I believe we are happiest when using our talents and gifts to help others, and in doing so, we truly live the life of our dreams.



 








Accept Others as They Are
Beth Layne — Thu, 15 Oct 2009 19:38:26 +0000
One of the most important lessons we can learn in order to bring ourselves more happiness and less disappointments in our lives, is to accept others for who they are.



I see in my practice, constantly, others who make themselves truly miserable expecting another person to be someone they simply are not.



Albert Einstein once said, “Insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result!” Although, I am fairly certain, Mr. Einstein did not have this particular situation in mind at the time of his quote, I find it very fitting in this instance as well!



If you know every time you invite this certain friend to a social engagement, the person says they will come, and always finds they are unable to, then why are you so disappointed each time it happens? And why, do you take it so personally?



Perhaps the person you have invited has a social phobia they find embarrassing, and because everyone in his/her life has always pushed them on the issue, they are unwilling to tell anyone the true reason for their not coming, so they accept, thinking they will be able to brave it this time, and truly intend to try to go, but at the last minute, they panicked, and made an excuse and did not attend.



There are always reasons for behaviors, and rarely, are the reasons solely to hurt another. Most often, the reasons, are in fact, just as painful to the person who you feel is inflicting hurt upon you.



Another example, is that you trust another person over and over with information you really do not want others to know, thinking that this time the person can hold your confidence in the utmost of importance. You talk to this person, because you feel comforted in doing so, and are constantly hurt, when you find this person has broken your confidence.



Perhaps the person you told your secrets to over and over, is simply not able to keep secrets. Perhaps this person speaks out of concern for you, and needs to talk with someone because now they are worried, or they actually think they are helping you by telling others!



Or perhaps this person is here to learn valuable lessons in relationship to gossip or disloyalty. Whatever the reason, it’s time to stop expecting this person to be different than they are.



Each of us have strengths and weaknesses. We can always find other things about others that are rewarding, rather than expecting a strength where there is a weakness.



A great deal of unhappiness stems from expecting from others. What most do not realize, though, is this type of anger, disappointment, etc. does not stem from the other person. It stems from within.



If these types of situations are constantly happening to you, then it is time to go within and examine from there. Try learning to accept others for who they really are and delighting in their strengths, rather than expecting them to be someone they are not.



Through our love and compassion for others, our judgements and expectations that keep us caged, can be released.












What Was Meant to Happen Did
Beth Layne — Thu, 15 Oct 2009 19:35:13 +0000
Often, we may look back on situations, and find ourselves saying, “If I had just done this, then maybe this would have happened instead.”



While it is important to evaluate our choices and learn and grow from them, it is equally important to move past the choices we have made. The lesson needs to be taken, and the experience needs to be let go. We are here with free will, and to make choices through the manifestation of our thoughts to learn and grow through.



Had we not made the choices we made, what then, would there be to learn and grow through?



Take what you have here and now – the outcome – and grow from here. You can only start with now, as there is no future yet, and the past is gone. Make sure what you are doing right here and now, is creating a better situation for you.



The first place to start is by looking within. What speaks to your soul? Perhaps you love working with wood, and find you create from somewhere deep within you when you are given an opportunity to work with wood. Or maybe you are naturally drawn to children, and find being around them and helping and teaching them gives you a deep satisfaction.



Whatever arena it may be in, find your calling and follow your inner spirit. Learn to harness the power of your thoughts, and how to create your true life. Through living that true life, your life will have enormous power to bless others along your journey, including yourself.



 








Share Your Feelings While You Can
Beth Layne — Thu, 15 Oct 2009 19:31:17 +0000
Never miss an opportunity to tell someone how special they are to you and how they have enhanced your life.



So, often, the grief of losing a loved one can be so overwhelming simply because we did not take the opportunity to tell them how we felt about them. We grieve deeply for that regret, and that fear that our loved one didn’t know just how special they were to us.



Let me assure you. They know. They are still with you and are still very much a part of your life. They love you and they want you to be at peace.



You can still tell them. They can hear you.



It is for our own sakes, that we share our feelings with others while we have the opportunity to do so, as well as for our loved ones.
