A Dream of Learning to Expand into Love

by 8hummingbirdway

I recently had a lovely dream about the steps and lessons along the way of life.

There were lessons at various stations/locations, teachings about how to live, how to communicate, about negotiation, kindness, sexuality, and other aspects of the way we navigate our lives.

There were other individuals along this trail, and some stations were difficult to reach, to navigate, and/or to understand.

One was in an auditorium or theater – with rows of seats – and had something to do with understanding and acceptance of various orientations and ways …of self and others.

One was in a beautiful natural setting that was difficult to find …and even to see or perceive.

I remember talking with another person about the challenges of reaching these locations …as we sat on the auditorium chairs …not realizing that we were IN a teaching place at the time.

The journey could be walking or riding or simply being somewhere.

It involved being open-minded and seeing/understanding.

One could go to a teaching station and completely miss the lesson.

It was a beautiful dream and I felt honored by the message and excited about the levels of understanding and connection that I am learning to choose …through experience, and through the beautiful lessons.

As I thought about the dream, I realized that there has been a shift in my sexual orientation – more focus on alignment with my husband than on our individual pleasure.

Then my mind went to the day before when my husband and I discussed the placement of a used rug he’d bought. I had brought it into the living room and placed where I thought it should obviously go. He came into the room a bit later and joined me on the couch …and within a few minutes he said he had envisioned the rug in a different orientation. I consciously resisted the usual path of overriding his ridiculous idea. This would have been my choice in the past – not saying it was ridiculous but pushing my vision as the right one. Normally he would give way to this tactic.

On this day, however, we discussed it for a while and then decided to try it the way he preferred. We worked on getting it just right, moving the coffee table and getting it just as he wanted it.

This is way out of character for me – or for a prior version of me.

Eventually he decided that it worked better the original way, but I didn’t control the situation …or control him as I would have tried to do in the past. (He is historically more flexible than I regarding that sort of thing.)

He also has been shifting his energy toward me. I am experiencing much more support and appreciation from him, and much less of a critical focus on my cooking and other aspects of our life together.

We are liking each other more and learning harmoniousness!

I suppose life IS a classroom, kind of like in my dream …if one pays attention and is open-minded.


I want to say, in closing, that I had been feeling that my recent focus on not judging others was a final step in becoming a person I feel good about being.

Now I realize there is no end!

There are SO many ways of living our lives that could expand and improve – kindness, generosity, open-mindedness, supportiveness, holding one’s tongue, and on and on.

I feel excited about this, and curious about what’s ahead.

I also want to remind the reader that I have come to believe that dreams are messages from one’s soul.

A significant healing process is now available – no charge!

by 8hummingbirdway

In the summer of 2024 I decided to jump into a channeled healing process that was deeply impactful. It significantly changed my life.

I wrote about it at the time – A New Healing Process

This past week the same healer began to offer very similar healings daily.

They are about 40 minutes and they employ the same pattern and intention.

She will be channeling them for a total of 40 days and they are available on YouTube.

I have listened to 4 of them so far, and plan to listen to a couple of them again.

At the time I engaged with Anne Tucker’s work, it was a significant financial decision. I am assuming that the decision was made (by her or by the Mother of Creation) to offer them more widely and for free at this time because we all need healing and help to navigate the upcoming planetary transformation and the person impact that will result.

The healing messages I listened to previously were channeled from the Angelic realm.

The Mother of Creation is an aspect of the Creator that birthed all our souls. The energy she brings forth is delightful, loving and significant.

I highly recommend that anyone who is open to healing and/or feels the planetary shifts and changes that are unfolding …and would like assistance in navigating their future check out these gifts.

If this speaks to you, simply seek out Anne Tucker 40 day vibe glow up on YouTube and you will be brought to the current day’s message. Scroll down to start at Day 1.

Verification

by 8hummingbirdway

It has become easier over time …to simply allow the voice and visions of Lei Lei to come through me …to release any judgement and doubt about whether I am interfering or …making it up.

This week I recieved 2 messages that helped me to trust more fully that this work is real, and that I am bringing it forth well.

A local ally who asked me to channel about a specific question recently sent me this message:

I deeply appreciate your time, openness and connection with my question.  It was a confirmation of what I am experiencing. The question is why. 

Much love,

I was able to respond about why; Lei Lei confirmed that it was regarding a karmic debt that had been paid.

A woman from Vermont who recieves weekly healing and guidance emailed me this message:

Thank you very much.  This is my favorite message so far. Before it was said in the message I was already thinking it sounded just like my work and wondered also if it involved my dreams so that was affirming to have both mentioned.  Thank you.

This path, which I initilly resisted, has brought me so much

…especially trust …the ability to trust life, the unfolding …and myself.

Private sessions for channeled healing + guidance and/or for shamnaic healing are offered in person and remotely by phone, video conference, [or email for channeling]. Contact Annie to book a session, host a workshop, for sliding scale rates or to discuss barter arrangements.

Transformation by Elena

by 8hummingbirdway

This Summer I attended a sound healing session. This is where I met Elena. She played crystal sound bowls for a group of people. She had 7 large bowls in a semicircle in front of her. Each sound bowl emits a tone that is attuned to a specific chakra. When she “played” them with her mallet …my being, maybe even my soul, vibrated in response. I could feel the sound.

I was deeply impacted and I new I wanted more. Elena had a confident and very gentle presence, which I admired and felt comfortable with.

When I reached out to her, I learned that she offers 3 different modalities of healing. I can’t begin to explain them, so I will offer her website: https://bioharmonycenter.com/ I wasn’t sure what to do, so I shared my priorities regarding personal healing and she recommended Reconnective Healing.

I have had 4 sessions with Elena – one in her work space (Middleburgh, NY) and 3 by zoom in my home. [She said that the remote sessions can be even more impactful.]

Each session has been different. I don’t remember a lot of details of the first session. I remember that my body responded and that I felt at ease with Elena. I decided to do a session monthly.

At the beginning of the 2nd session, I asked what exactly was happening or what the goal was. I had read on her website that “This comprehensive spectrum of energy, light, and information works to restore balance to your body, mind, and spirit, promoting healing and transformation.” I wanted to understand in more simple terms, and Elena said that she reaches out to Source and that what is needed is provided through her. She simply allows what is most helpful for her client to come through her …to them.

I lay back and relaxed. I felt energy move in my body – in the palms of my hands, then on my right side, my lower lip, my abdomen. Some of it was electric, but most of it felt simply like a “flow.”

At first I told Elena what I felt, and she confirmed locations she was focused on, asking a few questions …but then I just enjoyed the experience. She was very present when I glanced at the screen a few times, but did not interrupt my experience unless I asked a question.

I was worried that I might fall asleep, but I was fully engaged …in a soft and foggy sort of way. I felt as if I was elevated and gently rocked; I felt as if I was inhabited by a living force (my life force?)

It was almost as if I was a balloon that had been half deflated, but was now full of energy and light. With my eyes closed, I saw glowing colors in my legs and other body parts. The entire experience was mostly what I can only describe as a flow …of energy …and bliss …and color.

I slept through most of my third session, but the 4th was the most amazing to me.

I consciously opened myself to the possibilities and gifts …and soon I found myself receiving adjustments of some sort – maybe 10 or 20 of them. Then there was a silent conversation – what was my intention in my life, how did I see myself moving forward on my life path? I felt as if I had connected with the Divine!

After this, I felt I was receiving assistance  …”platforms” and installations that would allow me to move forward. Later on there were more adjustments. This experience was elevating and exciting. 

I highly recommend Elena and Reconnective Healing for whatever you are seeking.

I also plan to set up a private session for sound healing next!

I’m Coming out of the Closet!

by 8hummingbirdway

It has taken a long time, but this morning during a meditation/breathwork session, it became clear that it is time. I have some things to offer and I am going to bring them forward. I have lost my fear …of ridicule …of failure …of not being able to stand in the light …of what might come through during channeling Lei Lei.

I have stated that I am a channel on my FaceBook profile and written a few random things over time. This morning I posted this:

For almost a year now, I have been channeling a loving being named Lei Lei …since last September. I was engaged in a healing process that included dream analysis. It was explained to me that my dreams were messages from my soul. I received two messages repeatedly …one about my health and one that I had agreed before this incarnation to channel. I resisted both messages initially, but when a dream indicated that I was not fulfilling my mission in this life, I decided to try to comply. It’s been an amazing journey, a blessed journey. I had to learn to trust, and there were agreements that had to be made between Lei Lei and I. I had to learn how to raise my frequency and to get my mind out of the way so that the messages, healing and information could come through from the higher realm exactly as intended.

I have much more to share about this – about who exactly Lei Lei is, and I will be bringing messages forth, and who knows what will unfold!

Life is wondrous!

This is a departure for me. I can’t say exactly why, but a page has turned.

Oh, I guess it’s the fear thing.

Gratitude.

Message of Release from Lei Lei

by 8hummingbirdway

This message has come through Lei Lei recently. Different versions of this message of release have been provided to different individuals. Release seems to be a common and important message at this time.

We want to offer you a way to release that which you are struggling with, a way to release patterns and thoughts and wounds and burdens that you are traveling with, that no longer serve you, and that you are ready to release.

Our guidance is that when you step into the water, a shower, a bath, or into any body of water (pool, lake), that you say audibly, “I release that which no longer serves me.” And this will allow you to let go, to cut the binds that are constricting you, to release old patterns.

You will find that there are times when you will release more than one thing. You may or may not become aware of that which you are releasing, and this is not necessary.

And you also may find that sometimes a pattern or a wound that has been or is now significant in your life may take repeated releasings so that you may enter the water and say that you are ready to release or ask for release or express your intention to release all that no longer serves you. You may find yourself working on a specific pattern or wound for a period of time. You may or may not be aware of the specific wound.

One of the ways that you may become aware of these wounds is through memories that rise up just in your mind that you have not thought of for some time …or dreams that show you various aspects of a pattern or wound, the same pattern and wound repeatedly. 

This is not something that we are requiring of you. It is simply an offer.

There is no expectation. 

There is another alternate way which will allow you to double up on the releases or to do it in a different way. When you are settling into bed at night and sleep is approaching or you are approaching sleep, you can say the same thing.

“I intend to release that which no longer serves me.” 

You can choose to do this multiple times a day, both bathing and sleeping or swimming …or you could do it once a week. 

You can decide how to utilize this practice for yourself in the way that feels best for you.

Blessings to you.

Losing my Balance

by 8hummingbirdway

I have been working so hard on sustaining balance, on not even thinking negatively about others, on not being judgemental. For what seems like a very long time, I have been engaged in healing my past, meditating daily, walking, practicing Qigong, parcticing humility, serving others, focusing on being kind, focusing on simple tasks.

And it has improved my life. I feel balanced and happy and more confident …most of the time. I take pride in the new me. I am deeply grateful.

And the world has opened up in new ways.

However …it seems that life is still offering up regular challenges …so I can know from time to time that I haven’t truly arrived anywhere.

This morning, I was unable to navigate a family member’s hostility toward me regarding a trivial matter.

I was told that I made a mistake. I didn’t think I had, but then I realized that I was at fault, and I apologized. There was discussion of details and the person’s tone became hostile and they swore.

I had sustained humility until that point, but then I was triggered.

I raized my voice, upset.

I was accused of yelling.

And then the conversation went downhill on both sides for a few minutes until I became quiet. I was able to stop responding, which took a great deal of effort and restraint.

We disconnected.

I was still upset with the other person, but more upset with myself.

How could I land here after so much work …and so much commitment?

My meditation was a joke. I could not stay present.

Being imperfect is just not enjoyable.

And yes, I realize the ridiculousness of that sentence. I’m going to be sustaining imperfection for life.

How do I navigate it?

Simple tasks help.

There is still time to regain my sense of self.

Thank you LIFE (or ego) for letting me know – again – how much work there is to do.

I don’t know that I will ever arrive, but I will continue to walk the path.

I suppose these triggering events help me to sustain my work toward overall balance and wellbeing.

Self-righteousness

by 8hummingbirdway

I truly believe that we are entering a new time, that our world is changing. I am coming to understand more and more that reality is not easy to understand, to pin down. Things are not as they seem. I/we seem to have been living in a fictional reality.

No – that’s not right. It’s that we somehow construct our sense of reality based on our perception of what we believe to have occured/be occurring in our lives …and around us.

We actually get to choose the reality we live in to some extent …by our perception of what is and what we align with …and how we conduct ourselves.

Mostly I feel I am aligned with the raising frequencies and vibrations. I believe in them. I hold onto these beliefs with all my heart.

(I’m sure this would sound completely crazy to my dad, who I love and respect. But he is no longer with us in the physical world.)

Today, however, I woke with a bellyache. I had gone to bed self-righteously and distant because my husband wouldn’t talk to me about an issue I was annoyed about. I realized this morning that if he had simply worded his position differently, it would have been no issue.

Is this how I want to live? Causing strife and negativity around me?

No. I want to be that person who lets small things go, who recognizes what is important – my beloved partner, that our time together be harmonious, that wakes up each morning with gratitude …rather than remorse.

The debate was so unimportant. Different ways of communicating …a minor irritation.

I missed our gentle evening time together – listening to a story and then enjoying the back porch after dark …giving him a back scratch. This is the true gold in my life.

I will apologize this morning, forgive myself, and do my best to harvest all the blessings that are here for me in this day.

The fullness of who Lei Lei is

by 8hummingbirdway

I have finally consulted with Lei Lei to discover ALL the beings make up the entity that they are. I have channel this beloved ally and friend daily, for guidance and healing for myself and others for the better part of a year, but I have neglected to ask about the fullness of who they are.

I already knew that they are a being of love …consiting of Quan Yin (a Chinese goddess of love, compassion and mercy), The Spirit of Love and Generosity, Hsusei – a great healer from India in the past, and I was also told that my personal guardian angel is part of Lei Lei.

Now I have asked for a full report and have learned about Blaibulai. She was an ancient dancer and teacher in a culture from a lost continent. She is a being of great internal beauty, ethical awareness, discernment, compassion and love. I am delighted to know about her.

I love to dance, and hope to bring Blaibulai forth in my dance in the future, as well as in the healing and messages that Lei Lei offers.

There are additional beings that are part of Lei Lei who are not distinct “formed” personalities, but exist as frequencies and/or vibrations in higher realms of love. I do not fully understand this but I do trust the information, and I do occasionally experience unexplained frequencies and vibrations.

Two healing options!

by 8hummingbirdway

If you have been reading my posts, you know that I have taken an unexpected turn in the past year … into channeling healing and information through Lei Lei.

This has been a huge departure for me. As I learned to channel, I experienced almost a full year without shamanic work. The inquiries simply stopped. I was not sure where I was headed. Was this beloved chapter over?

Meanwhile, I was in unchartered waters.

Channeling is not a straightforward thing. It took a while to become adept at bringing forth the messages and healing intact. I learned first to raise my frequency to even make contact with the higher realms.

It is not easy to detatch from the words coming out of my mouth. My brain did not always agree with every aspect of the messages, and I learned that the information did not always arrive as intended.

I channeled for friends and family and they put up with my learning curve.

Then I devised a few other techniques …envisioning a “clean slate,” …employing the “hollow bone” of the ancient shaman, …and then asking my mind to step aside and not interfere with the message – even to turn away and detatch if any feelings of attachment arose.

A little more practice followed, and I now feel I am able to bring forth the message as intended!

I am channeling daily. Healings for a number of people on a weekly basis make up the bulk of my work. The offernings that I bring forth for each individual are a constant delight for me! I experience a steady flow of amazement at the content.

AND …

I am delighted to report that in the past couple of weeks I have begun working shamanically again!

The requests started up again. I performed an extraction/clearing and a soul retrieval for a beloved family friend, and then an extraction/clearing for a Dutch woman living in Milawi who discovered me on this website!

I did not know where I was heading with this channeling mission for a while.

But who am I to argue with the message of needing to fulfil my soul’s mission?

It has landed well with me.

I am deeply grateful to be engaged with both modes of healing – shamanic and channeled.

It is my passion to help and heal.
