“Angels Heal”

I have a healing book where I keep a record of healings that have been special to me through the years as a professional spiritual healer. Every healing is a result of angels. In this book are miracles, amazing outcomes, and evidence showing that something powerfully healing occurred whenever I turned to angels.
I think of angels as a divine Presence that is incredibly benevolent, deeply caring, and forever available to each of us. In fact, I think of angels as healers. I love them!
I access angels through my intuition – and so can you. I never thought of myself as intuitive, though now I do as a result of listening to angels over and over through the years. This has developed me where now, at will, I can tune in to angels and have immediate guidance and insight, even in situations in which I had no prior knowledge. I have been able to find my way through all sorts of problems just by listening to these powerfully loving, healing guides. This same capability is available to each of us.
Stress, heartbreak, trauma, overwhelm – angels specialize in all of these. Physical problems, financial challenges, loss, discovering your life purpose are matters of angel priority!
Angels are always with us to guide, comfort, help, uplift, and heal entire situations, no matter how difficult. I turn to angels all day long in my healing practice. In prayer, I ask for guidance. Sometimes, before I even finish the thought, guidance starts pouring in. It’s like putting a cup under Niagara Falls and having it filled with as much guidance as you want or need.
We especially need angels when we’re dealing with crises.
Late one night my husband and I were on the freeway where we needed immediate and urgent help from the “big gun” angels. We were driving in the far left fast lane on a 6-lane Los Angeles freeway when, all of a sudden, there appeared a wall of sparks coming off the back of our car. It blocked our vision. We couldn’t even see to move to the next lanes to get off the freeway. We were stuck in our lane and the freeway was at capacity with cars flying by at high speed. We were in grave danger.
I immediately asked angels for help as we were forced to come to a full stop to avoid our car bursting in flames. As we got out of the car, I yelled to my husband through the great noise of cars, that I knew angels were protecting and guiding all of us. Though I was tuning in to the angels, I was also feeling great panic. I glanced at cars speeding towards us in the fast lane and I actually felt led to run towards them with arms waving in order to get their attention to change lanes immediately or else they would crash into us! Here we were in a dark night, with cars heading straight toward us at over 75 mph, and we were at a complete stop with no shoulder. Fear was extreme.
Leaving my post of trying to flag cars away from us, my husband and I quickly investigated and found an iron grid stuck to the back tire. Within moments we had maneuvered the car back and forth, successfully removing the grid, all while cars were speeding toward us, unable to see until almost on us. During this time, my mind bounced back and forth to angels, while horrible images paraded before my mind visualizing a disaster of a dozen or more cars and bodies, including ours, flying in the air and everyone being killed. However, I was determined to keep my focus on angels and their protection to all of us.
The divine Presence prevailed. We were able to slowly start up and get back to speed and move through the traffic to the next exit where we found a place to stop and take account of the near death experience for ourselves and others.
We marveled that our dire needs had been met so profoundly and immediately. That’s how good angels are! And how fast they are to respond with protection and guidance when we listen!
No matter how difficult a situation you may find yourself in, you are never beyond the help of angels and their powerful blessings. And it doesn’t have to be dire. You can call on angels just to feel their closeness with you always. They will bring you great peace.
As you develop your spiritual intuition, you will experience more and more angel messages. You will be able to lean on them mightily for your every day guidance. This will offer you endless healing experiences. You will find that others who you bring into this spiritual realm will also be enormously blessed. Through angels, all healing is possible!

“Are You a Love Genius?”
October 30, 2009 at 4:43 pm | In healing | Leave a CommentTags: "shannon peck" healing love "Scott Peck" relationships intimacy genius
Many people arrive on earth as a prodigy. They may have an uncanny ability for math, art, music or another subject at a very early age. Michael Moore had President Kennedy’s inaugural speech memorized by the time he was six years old. Beethoven and many of the classical musicians had genius gifts arrive at early ages. Even my mom, by the time she was five years old, could figure out chords on the piano and play by ear. These people have genius in a specified path.
But have you ever heard of a Love genius? Do you know one? Are you one?
My husband is a love genius. He has a vast array of skills expressing amazing and continuous love in all his relationships. He creates loving relationships all around him.
Behind genius is an arsenal of resources, almost unimaginable. The depth of talent is endless. Genius shows up as an overriding experience in every day living. Behind love-genius is an extremely well developed ability to maneuver with love regardless of the situation even if it’s a bad day or conflict arises. In fact, a love-genius rises even higher in cases of conflict. A love-genius shifts into great patience to weather a conflict and to help move both themselves and others through the rough times with loving speech while being attentive and empathetic. This takes patience!
Having seen my husband’s love-genius in action for over 17 years now, I can tell you that it is not only possible, but it is a living reality in our home. Together, our love-genius has bonded and continually reaches new heights. Here’s a few ways you can use this list to increase your own love-genius.
1. Express good will – be continually friendly to friends, associates, and strangers, even on a bad day. This is generous. It makes everyone feel good, including yourself. And it continually pronounces the value of love and of each individual having personal worthiness to be loved.
2. Enjoy people – Have confidence interacting with people without manipulation or a hidden agenda. People feel this as a strong presence of love.
3. Be a great listener – not only tuning into a person’s conversation and concerns, but also, and more deeply, to their hearts.
4. Be responsive – often repeat back what you think you heard someone communicate, even at the deeper level. People love this! It causes them to feel loved and honored.
5. Offer generous praise – emphasize someone’s good points whenever possible. Do this often and as part of your generosity. People respond with encouragement.
6. Speak from the heart – learn to be comfortable with intimacy. And when you feel emotionally safe with another who isn’t judging you, lovingly express how you feel. When there is conflict, use gentle kindness and consideration.
7. Express love – This is the most important thing to a love genius. Focus on love regularly. Review your actions. Grow. Assess how you can improve, without judging yourself for sometimes falling short.
8. Be patient – with yourself and others, offering wiggle room for lots of mistakes and to get you through stress, while still being loving.
9. Forgive yourself – when you fall short of your goal to love.
When my husband comes into conflict (he sells real estate and there are plenty of opposing opinions about the price of a house, especially during negotiations), he goes into his love-genius mode of being a powerful peace maker, unifying everyone in good will and with the goal of arriving at a fair price for both parties. He articulates this beautifully and continually, with enormous patience and persistence, until his warmth and empathy surround the situation.
Far from being a ploy, it’s his true genius at work. It also has a practical side. He rarely loses a deal because of conflict. His love acts like glue to continually check in with others feelings and problems, taking valuable time to address their concerns, regardless of how much pressure he is under in a stressful day. Far from being weak, his actions reveal the strength and power of love.
Our unselfishness, thoughtful caring, patience, and generosity of heart are powerful skills to override negativities. This is the model of love genius.
Each of us has genius. Most often, it isn’t obvious to ourselves. But as we listen to our inner heart, there is a voice within that guides and provides light revealing who we really are beyond the superficial surface of limitation. As Love Masters, each of us has the capability of genius with love! By focusing on love as the most important part in your life, you can dramatically increase your genius as a Love Master and grow, causing everyone around you to feel your love and to be inspired to keep it going for yourself as well. Such a goal is worth every effort and offers the potential of true love-fulfillment and genius.

The Healing is Within You
September 18, 2009 at 4:33 pm | In healing | Leave a CommentTags: caring love, divine love, healing, love, relationships, shannon peck
This is to address whatever in your life most needs healing.
The healing, brought by God, is present. It is with you. It is operating as a law unto your entire current situation. The healing is flagging you down, causing you to identify it – clearly, face to face. And in identifying it, it is causing you to receive and accept it in full.
The healing is announcing its presence as inevitable and more than sufficient to your entire situation. It is filled with God’s caring love, which presents itself as a stable, sure presence with you now and always. The healing causes you to rise in confidence, power, and light. It permeates your entire being with its healing light.
This healing comes with its own powerful divine support system. It carries systems of divine science, action, and power, which overwhelm the entire area of the problem. You are called into this healing. The healing causes you to be fully integrated with it. There is no choice but to surrender to the full healing here and now. You and the healing are one.
The healing is sent by God for you. It has your name, your identity. It has identified you to receive the healing. It has called you into the place of healing. You are caused to respond 100% because it feels wonderful to surrender to God. And you know that you can trust God to heal you, even if it means you will change a little or even a lot. That’s okay. You’re ready and prepared for whatever it takes.
This healing is fully practical. Its practicality implements itself through your intelligence and reason and intuition. All your spiritual senses are fully activated, sensing what to do, how to cooperate, and how to view things in a new way, as you are divinely led. This feels good. It is a wonderful thing happening to you.
This healing means that you will no longer need old crutches, old things or places, outgrown or toxic relationships, energies, or lesser ways you once depended on for comfort or security. You can let them go. “Behold, I make all things new!” We love the new. It brings great relief, comfort, rest, security, peace, and all goodness.
This healing may cause you to look at people, things, events, circumstances, or even yourself differently. That’s good. We accept it, all of it. The healing is powerful, yet gentle to move you rightly. You can trust it completely. It is working as you read this.
We adore this healing. We adore that it is here, operating as a divine law, and blessing you immeasurably. We love everything about this healing. No part of you resists the healing. We totally embrace every aspect of this healing and we surrender in full, to every part of it.
There is no delay to this healing. The healing is not coming over time or in increments. It is fully here, right now in this moment. It cannot be delayed another second.
You are being led by God to be completely integrated with the healing. All obstacles are being immediately removed. This healing is in every way a blessing to you, your life, your body and relationships. The belief of any insecurity or unsureness or fear in your entire life is gently removed. The healing is present and it is bringing you great relief, comfort, and permanent peace.
I am with you. And divine Love is with you.

Are You Over Giving?
September 8, 2009 at 2:39 am | In healing | Leave a CommentTags: abandoning yourself, cancer, Dr. Bernie Siegel, Feelings, giving to others, healing, loving people, over giving, relationships, self nurturing, shannon peck
Loving people tend to give so generously to others that they often over give.
By over giving, they are so focused on giving to others that they rob themselves of important opportunities to love themselves. Do you do this?
Chances are, if you’re a woman and you haven’t investigated your giving habits, you are very likely over giving to others. Men, you may be doing this too. What do you think? Are you an over giver?
If so, what about loving & giving to yourself!
By addressing this question, please notice your response. Is it, “Ah, yes! I want to love and give to myself!” Or, is it, “Isn’t that selfish? I don’t want to be selfish!”
Actually, loving yourself means that you first drop the inner critic’s judgments. It is impossible to both judge and love at the same time. It’s like walking forwards and backwards at the same time. It can’t be done.
Chances are, if you are over giving, you are suffering from a world of associated problems that could be solved by deciding to focus on loving yourself for a change. We’ll talk about the how in a moment. First, let me get your full attention with the type of problems that can occur from over giving.
Dr. Bernie Siegel, a surgeon who specializes in treating patients with cancer, learned an important lesson from one of his patients when she was experiencing a countdown of her last days to live. As a friend called her to ask a favor, the patient realized that she had always said, “Yes.” But as she was considering her friend’s request, she looked over at a calendar where she had been crossing out the days remaining of her life. She found herself, for a first time, saying, “No.” This was the beginning of learning to set boundaries and it turned out to be a powerful new habit for her. This was the beginning of her stopping the habit of over giving. This healthy new habit affected the course of her cancer in a positive way.
Learning to set boundaries means you find your ability to say no, even if it risks disappointing someone or losing their love. How much do they really love you anyway? Your ability to say “No,” is packed with power, especially when you then turn inward to give to yourself instead!
Now that you’ve turned inward and are focusing on yourself, what do you do?
Ask yourself, “What am I feeling?” There will likely be a wide range of feelings, both positive and negative. Tuning into your own feelings means you can love yourself. This is healthy empathy. As you tune in to your feelings often throughout the day, you’ll notice how often they change! Through this observation, you will naturally learn that you are not your feelings. They are just feelings. Your feelings call you into self understanding so you can love yourself. It is important to learn how you are feeling so you can offer yourself this needed nurturing love.
Let’s talk about how to nurture yourself. What do you need right now? You may need to eat some food because you’re hungry. Or get out of the house more and play. Meet up with friends. Or just relax. Your needs have as wide a range as your feelings. Get to know your needs each day and see how inventive you can be in meeting your own needs. It feels wonderful!
Another way to nurture yourself is to ask yourself, “What do I really want?” You may want to reconsider your job, your lover, neighborhood, city, or just the brand of milk you buy! When you tune in, offer yourself improvements to live and feel better.
Obviously, if you are over giving to others, you’ll never get around to these essential questions or ways of connecting with yourself. Instead, you’ll ignore yourself and fail to know yourself. As a result, your feelings are likely to become bottled up. Without examination and loving acknowledgment, feelings can even turn into physical problems.
Practicing self inquiry is an important way of staying in balance. You risk getting out of balance with eating, rest, your needs, your wants, your dreams, and even your body, when you over give.
Staying tuned in to yourself means you are checking in and giving generously to yourself. It means you can be better at feeling comfortable and peaceful, emotionally anchored and stable, and reenergized. Then, you can take that very well loved self into all your relationships without losing yourself. Instead, you’ll be bringing forth the richness of having given yourself an important role of loving yourself and being sure you are receiving the love you deserve.
Sometimes, when you haven’t checked in with yourself, it’s easy to end up abandoning yourself and sacrificing your own needs in order to give to another person. For example, you might miss out on meeting your own need to be doing something else such as fulfilling on your promise to yourself to take time in the garden, pay your bills, give yourself time to mediate, or simply stop listening to your friend complaining endlessly.
When you stop over giving, you can politely interrupt when someone else is over complaining and be aware of the trap of trying to fix your friend. Now that’s richly giving to you! Naturally, there are times you will want to listen to and empathize with your friend’s complaints, but you get to choose if this is the right time for you.
Are you feeling stronger now? Are you ready to change your habit of over giving? Are you ready for the love you deserve? Loving yourself and others, without over giving, takes your life to a new dimension of healthy living where you will experience the love you deserve.

Prosperity is Already Within You
August 10, 2009 at 11:42 pm | In healing | 4 CommentsTags: abundance, healing, lack, limitation, money, prosperity, shannonpeck
We commonly think of prosperity existing outside ourselves. We mostly think of prosperity as something in the future to obtain.
We can make a paradigm shift about prosperity that lifts us into abundance. Rather than perceiving prosperity or money as external to ourselves, we begin with a new perception that prosperity is already within.
I have experienced this many times. The first time occurred when my family had been renting a house for 10 years. During this time I’d watched home prices soar as I lost all hope of ever owning a home. One day, I called a healer and, during our call, I mentioned that we rented a house. This was not the purpose of my call, but she caught my sadness as a young wife and mother. I yearned to own and fix up a house for ourselves.
The healer strongly suggested I stop practicing a temporary sense of home in “only renting.” I decided at that moment to follow her advice. When I dropped the idea of home being temporary, it made room in my consciousness to receive the natural idea of home being permanent. I was then able to spiritualize thought about home as I grasped the idea of home being primarily composed of qualities – beauty, sacredness, safety, support, peace, harmony, love, and growth.
These qualities of home represent the essence of home. Essence is not only affordable to us all, but it is inherent within each of us, not outside of us. By valuing the essence of something we are energizing it to manifest.
As I embraced these qualities, they lived within me as an energy. It was a great relief for me to be free of the negative energy of “I can’t afford,” and, “I’ll probably never be able to buy a house.” I enjoyed choosing the thought that I included every wonderful aspect of home. What followed was surprising.
Within a few months of this spiritual awakening, my husband rather suddenly was able to sell his business to start another one – one that was to become his life work. There was a small amount left over from the sale. About that same time, my ninety year old grandmother passed on and, surprising to me, she left me a small amount of money. She had been a lover of her home.
Then, a third surprise occurred. Our landlord approached us saying he wanted to sell the house we were renting and he wanted to find terms that might be mutually agreeable. He had approached us another time earlier and we had assured him that there was no way possible we’d be able to purchase his home, although we really wished we could.
This time, however, with the sudden two surprises of extra money, we had exactly enough for the down payment. I was beginning to experience what I was viewing of home being permanent, not temporary, I was also seeing that home is an energy which can manifest, and that prosperity was already within me.
It was like a miracle. We bought the house and I had such joy in fixing it up. But even more important to me than the purchase of a house was my discovering how to practice prosperity. Since that time, I have found that, even during difficult financial times, the practice of prosperity has always proven to be powerful in relieving me from fear and stress of limitation, and also in the power of manifestation. This is the power of divine Love that heals.
Another way that Love brings prosperity is through our perception. While on a walk one day, my husband said “I’m feeling so poor!” For a moment, everything was quiet. Then I said “That’s interesting, because I was just thinking, ‘I feel rich!’” We laughed as we realized the vast difference in our perceptions. We then acknowledged what a blessing it was to be loved by each other and what wealth that was. “We are love trillionaires!” we decided. This re-framing allowed him to release the energy of poorness and to receive the higher perception of abundance. This practice of higher perception unclogs the channels and allows a steady flow of prosperity in all areas of our lives.
Right now, no matter what your circumstances are, you can hold a far higher version of yourself and your life, one that is immersed in the unlimited possibilities, available for you in every moment. In doing this practice, you are chasing out limited thought forms and making room to receive what is already within – abundance!

“You Are Worthy of Unlimited Praise!” by Shannon Peck
May 30, 2009 at 9:03 pm | In healing | 11 CommentsTags: acknowledgement, healing, love, praise, self-esteem, shannon peck
One of the top 60 love skills we were never taught is to praise people generously and that includes praise to yourself as well as outward praise to others.
How much praise do you need? Lots! Even more than you can imagine! We operate best when we are continually praised. Why?
1. Praise is encouraging! We live in a culture that tends to withhold praise and positive acknowledgment. We become aware of this once we receive generous praise. It’s almost shocking to realize how much praise we truly need and how much better our lives operate from praise. It’s a total necessity!
2. Praise is inspiring! Each of us rises into our highest Self when we feel worthy and deserving. It energizes us to feel we’re doing well, making some progress, and feeling as though – even though we’ve got a long way to go – we’re good enough just the way we are.
3. Praise is empowering! We know how disempowering it is to be criticized or even insulted. It’s deflating and it’s really hard to recover. “Where did love go?” we wonder. And, more importantly, “How quickly can we get the feeling of love back to us!”
