Sometimes in life, things come to you when you least expect it... and it happens all the time.  I talk about asking for a sign to show me that I am making the right decision in life.  Holly and I talk things over and I trust what I hear and what I am feeling, but there is nothing like getting a sign from the universe too.  This week on my Radio show I interviewed Gregg Braden who totally bridges the gap between science and spirituality and it's something that I have been interested in for years as my father is the skeptic and need science to prove many things. 

Anyway, while I was reading his book Fractal Time, he was talking about the cycles that we have in life and that even though it's the end of the Mayan Calendar, it's just the end of a cycle in life.  So while I was in the shower I was thinking about my life and the cycle that I am in now.  I have always worked in 7's and that every 7 years there is a new cycle, and I didn't think it was true this time round.  However I realize it is true.  Things don't have to suddenly stop or change on one day or within a year... it can be that you have to close things down over a period of time... being the cycle.  And my cycle has been 3 years.

I had a reading with a great Australian Psychic last year and she said that there would be an end of a era... a wiping the slate clean... and I kinda knew what she meant by it, but I didn't want to deal with it.  Burying my head in the sand is something that I have been known to do but then I get a sign and it's all change for me.  I had wiped the slate clean in so many ways, stripping away the things that I had taken on in my last life (so to speak) but I didn't do it totally... 

I knew I had to complete the task... and finally I have had to take my head out of the sand, thanks to Holly and Charlie and having Gregg on my show was universe's way of reenforcing what I have felt for a while.   Finally I have to finish and complete what I started.  So when it comes to an end of an era, you don't have to complete everything in one day or year... its a cycle and that cycle can last a period of time.  However there has to be an end.  When the end comes new beginnings can happen and if you don't have the end, the new beginnings can't come. 

You can't grow when you don't have room... almost like decluttering your room... or Charlie's room as the case was for me.  So just know that time has to change sometimes and that you have to face things.  Complete change doesn't have to come in one day but it can happen over a period of time... Seasons and reasons is how we often refer to it.  

So, I know that I have to finish things up and make room for new growth... yes it's scary, yes it's exciting... but facing it has been the hardest thing and often in life... thats all you need to do is face it and then you can get your ducks in a row and start to plan.  Here's to new beginnings!!

Sending love your way.

Sometimes in life we get overwhelmed with things to do.  We often forget the most important things because we are so overwhelmed.  It happens to us all and I have to write lists to remember and as I have said before I have lists for lists... it makes people laugh! 

But for me I need it, but it's also about ensuring that the chaos in life is also cleared.  Sometimes we create so much drama that we can't think straight.  I have had enough drama to last me a lifetime and now my drama comes from the likes of Desperate Housewives on TV... haha

But my point being is that sometimes we need to clear things out to let go of chaos and drama.  It also makes us think straight too.  So this weekend and thank heavens it's a long one (I'll need it)... is going to be spent clearing out the junk in Charlie's room. 

It works for kids too, if we overwhelm or over stimulate them then they don't create, be kids... I'm no expert but it's just what I have learnt from my dealings with spiritual children, they need clarity and not clutter. 

We can also learn from this, we need to reduce the clutter so that we can think straight.  So think about what you have around you. Does your desk need clearing, does your closet need cleaning out... there are so many things that we can do to help us clear the chaos and drama without even realizing it.  When you make space in your life though simple things like this, it allows you to be more proactive. 

If you are going to do something like that, remember to have fun though... and keep smiling!

Hugs and love

Well I haven't blogged for a while, because I had been away and taken some time off and it's amazing how when you take the time off you come back with a refreshed mind.  With that in mind, I am now raring to go!  I know I was supposed to be relaxing but I actually wrote a course... tut tut tut. 

But now Im back. and it's great to get back on track with things.  Sometimes we all need a routine to follow and I know I do. I am better with a routine, and even while we were away we had a routine.  I think people work better with it.  It's always good to change things up a little but for me it helps. 

Even though we make changes in our life, the routine that we do is always there... almost like how we like to do things when we get up.  It's a way of feeling safe for some people or its a way of life. 

so if you find that you are struggling with things and getting overwhelmed then write a list... Oh how I love my lists. I have lists for lists sometimes haha but seriously. Write a list, get organized and then find a routine and plough in to it. 

I've had to do it with exercise... oh how I 'love' to exercise.... NOT but if I don't have a routine I won't do it.  But I have to otherwise everyone who is coming to Machu Picchu with Holly and I will be leaving me behind on that hike! haha so I have to set a routine and stick to it! We have to break old habits and start new ones.

So if you are looking to start a new project or something and you need to get it in your head, set the intention, write a list and stick to it, it will soon become a routine for you! 

Good luck with it!

Hugs and love from a refresh and raring to go

PS. I'm back on the radio!!!! Whoohoo Wednesdays 9am PST on www.blogtalkradio.com/lisawilliams

We have this thing that we do as a family and actually my best friend, Janey got Charlie and I on to this.  We poke each other (gently I have to add) when ever we see a Yellow Car!  I love it.  Although Janey and Isaac (her son) poke each other continuously when they see a Yellow Bug until it goes out of site, but I had to nip that one in the bud when we were next to a Yellow Bug on the 405 for about 20 minutes... it was getting a little painful to say the least. haha

Anyway, so we are always aware of when there is a yellow car. But what it made me aware of is that there is not enough color in the world.  I look around and see grey buildings and silver and black cars, and then you see everything around you that is just so ... blah.

What is nice when you see all these cars on the freeway that are all similar colors and then you see the bright yellow car in there... its fantastic.  So then it got me looking at my clothes.  Now because at one time I had pink hair it was hard to have different color in my clothes as it clashed with my hair... not a good thing really, but I noticed that all my clothes were the same shade and that there was little color... so that had to change.  Holly and I went shopping and the first thing that she bought were, orange, bright blue, and yellow pants... I love it!!

Now I'm not saying that we should all go out and change our cars or hair color but lets inject a little bit of color. Color makes us feel happy and vibrant and positive.  Its easy to do something with color, and it could be changing pictures in the house, drawing with colored pencils, painting  a wall a bright color, injecting some color in your clothes or accessories.  There is so much that we can do with color and it can help stay positive in life. 

So take a look at what you can do and start the game... yellow cars, shout out a funny word, poke each other (gently) or do something fun... but lets start injecting some life and color in our world!

With love

I was sitting at home recently thinking about something and I had this feeling of guilt, and it's an emotion that many of us have.  We are guilty over a loved one that has passed away and we never got chance to say goodbye, or we didn't say something that we wanted to say, or it could be that something has happened and there is an issue with a friend. 

But guilt is often part of our lives, but I used to think that it was an emotion that wasn't necessary.  However now as I think about it, I realize that like any emotion its there for a reason.  We all have guilt over something in life, but it's how we deal with it.  It's how we play it and over come it.

As I sit and write I realize that the guilt is there for a reason but it's what we choose to do with it, we can either sit in the feeling and let it eat away at us, or we can do something about it and face the issue that is at hand.  Facing things will help us move forward in life.  The more we bury our head in the sand, the deeper the feelings run and when it does want to come out it can explode and be actually really negative.

So think about the guilt and deal with it. Speak to the person, deal with the situation and face things. If you feel guilty about not saying goodbye to a loved one or for a situation that you can not deal with, because of the person has left the earth plane or there is no way of contacting them, then you have to do something about it.

Here's my suggestion, face the issue within yourself.  Write a letter to that person and explain why you have this emotion.  Then you need to realize that this really is only an emotion that is there and as soon as you deal with it, it will leave.  Find within yourself what would make you happy to resolve this situation and if it's worth you feeling like this.

Let me tell you that if the person who you feel guilty over is someone who has passed, they certainly will be watching over you and not wanting you to feel like this.  They want you to be happy and also they want you to be moving on in a positive way.

But what you also have to think about, if the shoe was on the other foot would they be feeling guilty, or is this just the person that you are.  So stop and think about whether this guilt is really worth all the time and upset.

So something about it, face facts and then move forward and don't give it another thought, we can all do it.  But don't forget to face things when they come up and deal with them.

Hope everyone had a great weekend!

Lots of love

How many times do you ask for a sign and then when you lease expect it... BAM there it is... slapping you in the face! It's actually laughable how many times it happens to me, and also when I least expect it but when I KNOW I need it. 

Thats when I look up (don't ask me why I look up as I know the spirit world isn't exactly 'up') and say Thank You! Sometimes the signs are not what we expect but they are there all the same. 

I bet there are so many of you sitting there reading this saying, well yes but how do I  know it's a sign... and that is easy.  we get signs every day that our loved ones are around us or that we are being shown things for a reason. 

The signs can be anything, from looking at the time and it being 11:11 or someone sends you a letter and their return address is a number that resonates with you. It could be a bird flying past your window or a song on the radio when you least expect it.  There are so many signs around us all. 

But then there are times when we sit and think... no that wasn't a sign, but you want to believe. Well all I am going to say is believe that it was a sign and know that you are being loved and guided and helped along in life every step of the way.  You are not alone, there is always someone looking out for you on the other side. 

So when the signs come allow them to come, sometimes you want to force things along and make things happen but the sign will always be there when it's the right time!

Stay looking for them, and believe... who knows what may come your way!

With love

Well the day has come... yes it's here... OMG...

The book is officially launched!!! WHOOHOO, I can't tell you how excited I am, not to mention stressed!!! I've been working my butt off to make this happen and to make sure everyone knows about it. 

There have been a few melt downs along the way, but after all, I'm only human... haha. 

But it was a massive learning curve and a period of growth also.  After my first book, I never really thought I was an author. I mean, yes I had 'written' a book with a (pardon the pun) ghost writer... and yes I edited that book and injected my personality it to it. But I didn't sit down and type the words completely. 

When I went to events and people were calling me an author I didn't feel it.  However I was... I know so many people write using a ghost writer but to me, I wanted to put the hard work, pain and sweat into it... oh boy, do you get what you ask for!

I have to believe that I could do it. I have to start to believe that I was an author... I have to really believe in myself.  That wasn't easy. I know I love to blog and I write from the heart and I call it brain dumping, but it was more than this... I had to challenge my slightly dyslexic brain and tap away at the keys. And I did it... I believed in the fact that I could do it.  

It started off with brain dumping, and that was it... I was on a roll. With help from my friends who kept me off FaceBook and questioned every part of the book, and others who persevered with me through my mood swings, unsocial behavior, the book started to take shape... and before I knew it I was 70, 000 words in... and not even complete. 

Whoohoo I was writing a book...but the the side of me that doubted myself kicked in when I was told I needed an editor... Ugh... I felt a failure. But again that belief system kicked in and that was it... I started to research and discovered that even some of the most famous authors have them... 

So that was it... I was back... I met with my fabulous editor Nancy and the ball was rolling. She corrected grammar and so many other things and I couldn't believe it when it was done... It was almost painless!! haha

But what it showed me is that you can do anything you want, when you put your mind to it, and you start to believe in yourself. But most importantly you start to see yourself as the person that everyone else sees.  For me, I had to see myself as an author! Just as before, when I had to see myself as a medium.

So now I am proud to say that I am an author... and it feels great! 

So with this book I've tried to keep it simple, and lighthearted. But how can you do that when you are talking about, what happens when we die... well quite simple... its love. 

Love is around us everywhere, the book is written with love, its about love and life, and what is apparent in the book is that even in the afterlife, its all about love. 

So love who you are, be proud of who you are and start to believe in yourself and know that you can do anything that you put your mind too!

Happy reading to those who have bought it already, and to those who haven't... what are you waiting for?? 

You could win a reading with me... Just click on this link and you will find out more!

Sending love to you all and thank you for believing in me and supporting my journey, I couldn't do it with out you!!!!

Hugs and much love

It seems that in this busy world that we live everyone is rushing to get somewhere.  I noticed it this morning as we were heading for an appointment.  Just because we didn't cross the traffic lights when they turned, it frustrated the guy behind and he started to beep beep his horn.

Then when they turned again the beep beep started… Okay dude chill out! 

I know those people who live in busy cities such as New York, it's a common noise that you hear and in fact, it's alien if you don't hear it… but sometimes it's all rush rush rush. 

Thats how accidents happen.  Rush from one place to another, with a cell phone at hand, and emails and texting, the world has gone crazy.  Sometimes we need to stop.

i've had a weekend with no emails, or telephone, in fact my phone was switched on airplane mode all weekend and those who wanted to communicate with me could only do it through my home phone it was wonderful and something that was very much needed and its allowed me to be present.  Many times we are not and we continue to rush rush rush rush and don't stop to take in what is around us. I remember a friend saying to me, have you ever really looked outside and watched the birds and nature around us?  And I have and so did she and it was so cool just to be in that moment and present in our lives.  

I also remember someone racing past me on the canyon roads and then racing past other people and endangering himself and others, only to find that a mile down the road I was right behind him again... I had to have a quiet laugh to myself as he didn't get very far.  My nan used to say to me. less haste more speed, and I never really 'got it' until I slowed down and did something that used to frustrate me and then I took more time and I found I got things done quicker. 

So instead of rushing around lets stay a little more present and available in our lives to everyone around us and also stop rushing from one place to another, lets allow a little more time for our journey, hold a conversation with someone, open the door... just really be aware of what is around us, and look listen and learn, as we may surprise ourselves as to how much time we are focused on other things and not on what is important in our life. 

Have a special day!

Finally we are home... and I can't tell you what it feels like to have spent 2 nights in my own bed! Pure heaven.  No aching back from the different beds, Charlie happy to see us, mom and dad relieved to see us so that they could get their life back, the dogs tails wagging as we walked through the door. It was great. 

Back to normal... or so they say! 

Although I am not sure that waking up at 3am is normal in my world, nor ignoring emails and work until now, but even so, I'm happy!

The tour was incredible, it's had it's highlights but it was also extremely grueling and hard work, hence why emails have been ignored and life put on hold.  I suppose people see the fact that I am traveling from place to place and meeting different people is glamourous, but I often comment on the amount of back alleys, and kitchens and very unglamorous stair cases that I have to walk up and down... it's hardly what you would consider glam. But I love it. 

But the tour for me had a very big lesson for me, and that was trust and also speaking the truth.  It wasn't an easy lesson but it was something that I had to see.  I also had to work out who had my back and who didn't and that is always a big lesson. 

I am one of those people who immediately has faith in everyone who is placed in my pathway thinking that they will provide what I need... and all of the time they do... even if it's negative, what they provide me with is a lesson. 

This was it.  Yes I had Holly who was there for me emotionally and trust me, when I say I needed it, as I don't think I have ever cried so much, but this was time for me to stand up and speak. 

Yes it's been a lesson that I have been learning for a while and I have blogged about it, but this really hit home. I had to be blunt, honest, direct, and not worry about how it was taken. 

But what I also realized was that even though I was the one who had to say their side of things, I knew there was a lesson in the it for others.  I was showing them a pathway, a truth that maybe they hadn't seen before.  However you can show someone the door but you can't make them walk through it.  And this was the case. I had to point out some things but is is up to others to see it and allow them to recognize it within them and it's only then that they can do something about it. 

I'm not sure if they will... as I don't think that they have seen it... yet... but when they do, they will understand it and see the light and maybe do something about it. 

You can't change how people want to see things at all, but all you can do is help them and this I feel was my lesson, I had to stand up and help others see what they need to see.  Who knows if it will help, but thats not my journey that is there's but I only hope it will. 

So don't force someone to see something, just show them the way and then let them find their pathway. Some will go in circles, others will directly make the changes and take responsibility but know that we all have lessons to learn through everything even the negative parts of life. 

Right, I can't put it off, it's time to open the emails and down load however many there are and face life head on... 

Thanks to everyone who came to see me on tour, I had an amazing time even though it was hard, the easiest part is doing the work I love and meeting everyone who comes to the shows! Thank you to all of you. 

With love

The traveling around australia has been incredible and we have been able to see some amazing sights and one of them being the Great Barrie Reef… it was incredible.  However I do feel that we could have seen more.  I have a massive fear of the ocean and when we booked the trip I wasn't thinking about it but when the time can, I could feel the fear within me.  But it was not going to stop me.  I had taken my diving certificate when I was a swimming instructor but that was only in a pool so I decided I was just going to snorkel… and so off we went!

Holly jumped in two feet and there I was sitting on the edge and I could feel my heart racing but I didn't want my fear to take hold so I just pushed myself off and in I went! OMG OMG OMG… the panic set in when I started to put my head under the water… I couldn't stand it.  For the first few minutes, well 10 actually I had to control my breathing etc etc. 

I'm actually a great swimmer and have always had a passion for swimming but realized that this was due to a past life that I had when I died in the ocean, so I forced myself to swim.  But being in the ocean surrounded by water and nothing else for as far as the eye could see was hard for me to deal with.  I felt better that everyone was around me and that Holly was not far away but I was so worried… but finally, I stopped and centered myself and calmed down.  And I am so glad I did. 

I put my head under and started to breathe and that was it… I started to see the world that was living under the water. The incredible vast array of coral and living creatures and fish. It was amazing.  The colors were incredible, just knowing that there is another life under the ocean is one thing but being able to experience it was something else.  There was no stopping me from that point on, I calmed down and swam, watching how our instructor went down to touch a clam and it closed up right in front of us.  I saw a shark on the bottom of the ocean… it was a whole world and 'Nemo' captured a lot of it in the movie! 

It made me realize that we all have fears, and sometimes we have to over come those fears to experience a great things in life.  Fear is something that only we can overcome, but by remaining calm and putting our selves in a safe environment to overcome them, is important.  When we do this we can face it.  There is nothing to lose, and actually everything to gain. So put your fear aside next time you want to experience something amazing, I did… and I am so glad I did as I would never have experienced such a magical moment like this.  

However I know what you are all thinking… Peas… urmmmm Nope, I think I can live with not eating them and I don't think they will add to any experience that I am going to have, so for now I will live with that one, and know I can overcome all the others that I have… :) 

Have a wonderful day everyone and remember face your fears with a smile!

Lots of love
