Meditation And Visualizations With Dr Kathy Gruver

Episode #46:  A Reading: Today's Angel Card Word of the Day is "light" let your energy illuminate the day. Our little light candle cannot light a whole city but can light up a room. We also can light others' candles which doesn't dim or take away from our own light but brighten the collective light. Start from yourself and immediate circle and radiate from there. Terrie begins by pulling 3 cards from 3 different decks. From "The Good Tarot Deck" is the 3 of air. Pulled from the "Oracle of E" is Entangled. Lastly, from the "Power Animal Oracle" is the Frog symbolizing purification. In the height of it all, sometimes we say F it, I surrender, let's just go with it. Kathy rolls 4 dice representing earth, air, fire, & water resulting in fire ruby, clock, lotus, & bridge. Through the meaning behind each of these symbols, we are reminded to trust, release control & have faith as well as remove attachment to the outcome.    #intentionalawakening #light #entangled #trust #release #faith #detach

Episode #45:  Collective Consciousness: Today's Angel Card Word of the Day is "Depth" reminding us to respond to dive deeper and focus on what's really going on. Today we are talking about both collective consciousness & unconsciousness. When you think about humanity beyond the meat suits that our souls live in, we are all one. We are all energy and we are all energetically connected as our energy influences all other energy. There is a theory called the "hundred monkey theory" where if you teach a majority of the hundred monkeys to do something new, the rest just seem to catch on. To use collective consciousness to enhance our lives and communities, remain aware and direct our focus to energy work to contribute positively to your own energy and the collective. We are affected by others' energies. All we can focus on is shifting our own energy and doing the work. Own positivity & spread your light. You will notice the difference.    #collectiveconciousness #intentionalawakening #depth #soul #en

  Today's Angel Card Word of the Day is "Integrity" reminding us to act alongside our values and commitments. Having integrity in your spirituality and spiritual work is key. Reiki is energy work, similar to chronic healing, which involves moving energy as energy cannot be created or destroyed. But, that energy can be transferred to another purpose. Reiki is used in many fields and heals on all levels: body, mind, & spirit. the energy does not come from the person doing the Reiki but through them. When looking for any spiritual practitioner, check their credentials as you would for any practitioner. Don't be afraid to ask questions, the more you know the more the neurosystem can receive. Sometimes energy work involves "cleaning" of the chakras to allow them to work properly. If you're looking to heal, you have to be able to receive it.    #intentionalawakening #reiki #integrity #energyhealing #chakras

Episode #43:  Spiritual Practice: Today's Angel Card Word of the Day is "Humor." This can be a stress reliever moving you away from daily dramas.  It is best to implement spiritual practice intentionally and with time for it. No meditation looks the same for everyone, it's all about doing so when you can and with consistency, no matter how you choose to meditate. You have the permission to remove the ( sometimes limiting  ) structure to the standard "meditation" as long as you are implementing focus, intention, & allowing thoughts to pass freely without having to attach to those thoughts. Drop the perception of how spiritual practice is "supposed to be" and let go of outside noise using quiet contemplation. It's spiritual practice not spiritual "perfect," make it your own and just do something that you resonate and connect with.   #spiritualpractice #intentionalawakening #humor #intention #meditation #consistency #focus

Episode #42:  Surrender: Today's Angel Card Word of the Day is "Surrender," focusing on what is going on rather than what should or could happen with acceptance. Sometimes you have to float and let the current take you. Surrendering involves acknowledging something is there, accepting it, and then taking action. Relinquish control and stop resisting. The hack is using the word "and" while trusting the process. It is okay to feel your feelings, what is your relationship to that feeling? Stop trying and start doing, you either will or won't, there is no "try." Kathy does a healing and emotionally joyful exercise asking Terrie to visualize how she's feeling inside and her walking through what these feelings may be communicating to her. Sometimes, just acknowledging and letting those emotions be seen dissipates the impact it has on you.    #surrender #intentionalawakening #acceptance #acknowledge #trust 

Join Terrie and Kathy today for an incredible card reading. And know that no matter where you are or what time you are listening to this, there is sure to be some insightful wisdom for you to use in your life today. The angel card today is flexibility. Where in your life do you need to be more flexible and adaptable?  Kathy pulls from the 40 Servants Deck and the Mary Magdalene Deck and Terrie is selecting from the Tea Leaf Reading Cards.  Sit back and enjoy!

Today's Angel Card Word of the Day is "Tenderness," treat yourself and others with care. Especially in these crazy times, we need to detach ourselves at times to spiritually cleanse. Can you be an observer rather than a participant? Your identity is not the issue you're going through or the situation at hand. You have more to receive. Before ____ happened, you were here. Where is the past or the future if you're not thinking about it? When the issue is in our heads, we go into fight, flight or freeze and it's hard to move through that because the danger is in our head. We do not necessarily see a resolution. Find a way to calm your nervous system. Is something causing you these emotions or are you dwelling on something causing yourself the emotions? Pick the thoughts that work for you and find the "silver lining." Self care is work and soothing your soul is not always easy and may involve setting boundaries. In some situations, we can only help ourselves and give ourselves the permission.    #selfcare #in

  Mark, certified therapeutic coach working with hypnotherapy and psychology, is back for another episode!  Today's Angel Card Word of the Day is "expansiveness." Rise above and keep growing. Expansiveness is like amplification, what is being amplified? Energetically, how do you say "yes, and…" So often, we feel small or minimize ourselves to "protect others." In reality, when we expand ourselves, we can hold more & give more. We can live unapologetically and expand our light. If the people around you cause you to feel like minimizing yourself and your growth, then those are not the right people to surround yourself with. To expand, take a look at what got you to where you are and accept that your past is what has allowed you to grow and expand to who you are becoming today. Acknowledge your successes.  Notice your improvement no matter how big or small, shift your perspective. Awakening is a consistent effort. Expansion leads to awakening.    #expansiveness #intentionalawakening #amplification #un

Episode #38: Ayahuasca: Today's Angel Card Word of the Day is "risk," which is well fit for today's episode. Ayahuasca can be intimidating but you will know if and when it is your time. Terrie shares her experience of introspection into letting go of the feeling of panic and there being no need to feel shame for being human. It felt as though healers were working on her and she heard Mother Ayahuasca say "There's no shame in being human." She left realizing that she can have experiences and growth like this without chemical alteration. Kathy came back recently from an action packed Ayahuasca retreat including 5 ceremonies in 2 days. She realized that surrendering comes allowing yourself to rest the first night and after that went all in. She set boundaries in business and friendship, time & money are limited. Trust your internal calling to decide if you are ready for something like this. Try to reduce expectations going in and be open to the risk. Everyone's experience will be different but usually

Episode #37: Purification:   Today, we have a guest, Hypnotherapist Mark Lakowske. Today's Angel Card Word of the Day is "Purification." "Wash away the drama that covers your essential nature."   Mark shares that his first vision was a sword being forged. To make this beautiful useful piece of art and weaponry, it has to go through a process of breaking down and refining before being rebuilt to something stronger.    Terrie relates purification to a deeper level of clearing out the old to make room for the new. This is a part of the journey even though it can be extremely difficult to move through the past to make room for new.   Kathy describes her recent Ayahuasca retreat being a moment of purification: breaking her down, initiation, and rebuilding.   To get to a place of purification, we need to go through self examination, surrender, and self forgiveness. We have to embody feel and release. What are we consuming? Purge negative energy. Purify your body, mind, and environment. Why cook

Episode #36: Karma: Today's Angel Card Word of the Day is "Openness," reminding us to be perceptive to change. Karma can be described as the law of cause and effect rather than a punishment. We live in duality, karma can act as a moral code driven by intention. There is also ancestral karma within your energy field with the soul, not the body. What is the natural result of our actions? Are we open and receptive to receive? There is a book called "It Didn't Start With You" dealing with trauma and restrictions and what could have come from energy before us. What is our soul purpose and what can we do to break a pattern or heal the ancestral karma? This is soul work involving acceptance and generosity; lift up others around you. Sit in stillness and contemplate who you want to be. How do you want to contribute? Remove yourself from anger and resentment using acceptance.   #karma #intentionalawakening #openness #duality #intention #ancestral #soulwork #stillness

Episode #35: Mystery of the Ring: Today's Angel Card Word of the Day is "Expectancy." "Stay miracle minded and open to surprises." Kathy tells an anecdote of looking down one evening and noticing that her wedding ring was missing a diamond. She disappointedly tells her husband it is gone and shows him the ring reminding her that they may have a warranty. The next day, she goes to look at the warranty and figure out what it would entail to fix the missing stone and looks back at the ring. This time she sees no empty space and all diamonds in their place.  This could be an instance of a parallel reality, meaning there are many different versions of ourselves depending on the choices we make and actions that we take. It could be timeline jumping, manifestation, or a premonition.    #expectancy #intentionalawakening #parallelreality #timelinejumping #manifestation #premonition

Episode #34: Inspiration:   Today's Angel Card Word of the Day is "Inspiration." Do you find inspiration or does it find you? Inspiration is like a spark that goes off within you and ignites a connection. This spark comes when you are not actively looking for it.  Influence and support can feel like inspiration.                 Energy influences energy and because of this, inspiration may come out of nowhere. It is best to be ready to receive it. Trying to manufacture inspiration may backfire as it can reflect how your nervous system is operating in a sense of stress or urgency. Stillness and presence is key, being ready to be receptive to those sparks within time of boredom -in daily life, not only meditation. Give yourself permission and take action intentionally to jumpstart you're incoming inspiration.    #intentionalawakening #inspiration #influence  #energy #presence #receive  

Episode #33: A Reading: Today's Angel Card Word of the Day is "Communication," which expresses the connection between  "your interior experience and outward expression."                 As a general reading with both Kathy & Terrie's decks of cards. Terrie starts with "Good Tarot" deck pulling "transformation" and "Hasta La Vista Baby." Kathy begins with the "Past Life Oracle" cards pulling "finances" & "forgiveness." For any healing to happen there has to be change and transformation. There is the collective and the individual and transformation begins individually and radiates to the collective. Where can you find a place in your life that needs change? Is there anywhere you feel restricted? Are you being called to work on something that will help you heal and outgrow these restrictions? You cannot transform without forgiving yourself and others. Let this attachment go. Is there a place you need to find forgiveness in work to let it go. Make space for something new. Is there a judgement you a

Today's Angel Card Word of the Day is "Balance," find a point of equilibrium amidst change.  Kryon talks about magnetic shifts, geological information, etc. and posted recently about awakening. Kathy reads a quote.          This is a testament to the self work done and needing to be done. When a new door opens, we tend to fear the unknown. Why not be curious? If you're starting to awaken to a larger truth, you begin to change and develop a higher consciousness. This can bring life changes. When you learn how to manage your intuition, you may lose some of it; it's part of your process and path. If we bring this into talking about balance, in our awakening we may separate a bit from the human. You may begin to understand. You may feel disconnected to old friends. You may feel like your blood relatives are not spiritually connected and there's a grander truth. "It may become obvious for those who wish to look." As you level up, you face bigger and bigger challenges. There is a link below about Kryon.   

Today's Angel Card Word of the Day is "Acceptance," move forward and embrace life. You have to accept & acknowledge something to change it. You can fight against it and think you'd like to change it, but there is always time for improvement. Energy is always moving so acceptance is a constant process and a choice. The question is "How?" Some tips can be to understand the differing levels of truth that can exist at the same time. You can be upset at someone and love them and both truths can exist. We all have natural biases, is there room for change or growth? Suffering comes from judgment. Are we allowing the circumstances to continue? Is what is happening for our higher good or a lesson we're meant to learn? Sometimes things suck but those can be the most important lessons and acceptance is the first choice.    #acceptance #embrace #acknowledge #truth #bias #lessons  

Today's Angel Card Word of the Day is "Gratitude," increasing your ability to nourish the good in and around you. The soul is made up of 3 facets, love (emotions), light (intelligence), and  power (control of your body/movement.) If the soul decides what to work on, it then chooses people and circumstances to fulfill those lessons and in this time, souls begin to connect with each other. Does the contract break when two connected souls divide? It depends on your perspective. Some believe it may break, others believe the soul contract cannot break and the division was a part of the contract all along included in a lesson that you are supposed to learn and endure. Once you fulfill the contract, it could be seen as breaking the contract depending on your own perception. Mutual growth is the purpose and intention, it is not considered destiny but a lesson needed to be learned. To release a soul contract, awaken within it and release anger realizing we are all here for mutual growth, this involves forgiveness. L

The angel card of the day is adventure which is ironic since this episode is about Kathy's adventures hunting ghosts on the Queen Mary in Long Beach.  Tune in for excitement and mystery as Kathy stays in the most haunted room on the Queen Mary. Terrie and Kathy talk about ghost hunting, spirituality, Ouija boards and the like. Enjoy and share.

Today's Angel Card Word of the Day is "Commitment," remain dependable. What you believe about the afterlife depends on what works and makes sense to you.  If you believe in past life regression, you may understand this in the terms of soul evolution. For example, if life is like a job interview and in the first interview you do not get the job, in the next interview you have another chance to do the right things and get the job.          Your belief in the afterlife will resonate energetically with you. We pick our lifetimes, we know what we are destined for. We only know what we need to learn to move forward. The soul understands what to take from your experiences into the next life. Have you ever gone to a new location and felt  comfortable as if you knew and recognized the place? You have memories of these places that may not be your experiences. You can go back to a space, a soul encounter, a skill, etc. and whether or not you believe, the work can still  be done.    #pastlifereggression #intentiona
