Are you daydreaming?

I urge you to take a little time to daydream. Some of my best daydreams come to me when I'm cooking, cleaning, sitting in front of a window on a rainy day.  I spend the first few moments of my morning outside on my porch with my coffee or tea watching the trees sway in the breeze while tuned into Mark Watson's beautiful angelic melodies. When the mind is able to daydream, the body relaxes and your guidance, imagination and ideas will drop into your awareness.  With time and practice, this can be an incredibly powerful way for you to free up the physical, mental, and emotional bodies and allow spirit, imagination, creativity and new ideas into your awareness. 

Practice daydreaming when you're alone and feel it's safe to let go and relax. Begin by sitting comfortably with feet flat on the floor (or lay down) whatever you feel you need to do in the moment and take a few gentle deep breaths to release tension in the body and allow your mind to relax. Acknowledge the random thoughts that will come up and allow them to pass as will adjustments in the body, like coughing, itching, or whatever comes up.  This is a way for your body to release energy and tension. If you have to move or adjust, it's okay, go ahead and do it.  Look around the room and  notice where you are in present time.  Close your eyes and sit in this quiet space of  awarenes with no expectation, just be.  If you feel the desire to listen to music or a guided meditation during this time than do it.  

You will find that when you make a habit of daydreaming, your life will be back in the flow of your divine spirit, and any difficulties that you have will be overcome much more quickly.  New solutions will come, you will feel more peaceful, and joy will make it's way back into your life.

Dream well, live well...

Consider clearing a space for your own personal dream altar.  

How is your dream space? Do you sleep well and remember your dreams?  Do you journal them?  How do you feel when you awaken from  sleep?

Here are a few tips to help you sleep well, dream well, and discover the wonderful benefits of dreams. Dream time is a chance to  receive information  from our guides, departed loved ones, (and one of my favorites) find solutions to problems.  We can also discover and recover our freedom when we travel in our dreams. 

1. Ask for a dream guide.  You already have one available to you,so why not ask them to come forward and help you?  Mine is William, and he gently helps and protects me while I dream. William has been with me for as long as I can remember, and probably longer. Ask for your dream guide's name and try to visualize this guide in your prayers, meditations or dreams.  A guide will probably come forward for you right away since you're already six sensory, if not, be patient. I urge you to keep your mind and senses open to your guide.  It will happen.

2. Set the stage. Clear your clutter! Cover or remove any mirrors, utilize soft lighting, crystals, and herb sachets.  Remove computers, phones, and any electronic devices, including the television. Place the pets in their own beds, crates, etc before turning in for sleep. Listen to soft music before sleeping but not during sleep. Turn off the television,(if you can't move it out of the bedroom), and relax at least 30 minutes before sleep. If you have a partner, you may have to negotiate some of these changes but you will also create a more romantic environment, as well, so I would say it could be a win/win for couples. It's also helpful to keep paper or a journal with a pen close by to write down your dream upon awakening. Do what you can to make your bedroom a safe environment to sleep.

3. Set the intention. Many of us already understand the importance of intention. We often do this practice of setting an intention in our daily six sensory lives.  You could say for instance, "My intention tonight is to dream and remember my dreams clearly and vividly" or "Tonight, I will dream and discover how to solve my problem" and state the problem you are seeking help for.  Keep it simple and be comfortable with your request.

4. If you find the suggestions of herbs or crystals aren't for you or aren't part of your belief system, please do what you feel comfortable with. Your prayers and intentions alone will work miracles.

Below is a list of herbs for sachets and crystals that I've found helpful to prepare for a good night's sleep. Place the herbs in a sachet bag and keep them on your beside our underneath your pillow. You can also place them in a small bowl. I encourage you to use whatever works for you.

Herbs
Hawthorn 
Chamomile
Lavender
Mugwort

Crystals
Amethyst
Rose Quartz (so gentle it can be used for your children's dream time)
Clear Quartz
Selenite

I suggest you spend a little time with the herbs and crystals before using them to see what works for you. Remove any item that feels too strong or makes you irritable. Use one or more and if you don't have them on hand or the budget doesn't allow for them, place a picture near your bed or visualize them before sleep. Charging the crystals with your intention, Reiki blessing, sunlight, moonlight, or water will also create a more safe and healing environment during dream time.

I invite you to begin to create your safe, peaceful environment today.  It will be a special place where dreams are not only possible but also remembered and utilized to enrich your life.

Wishing you sweet dreams now and forever more.

Here is your key...

Are you in need of insight into a problem or 

situation in your life?  We all struggle with

choices. What and how do we keep grace in our 

lives and what do we need to release in a 

loving manner?  When we are living our true 

six sensory life, we rely on all of our 

senses to navigate through our struggles

and keep us on our spiritual path. We can also 

call upon,through prayer, the loving

assistance from the angelic realm. The 

key is to ask with an open heart. Please don't

confuse this with the idea of angel worship or 

cult, but simply receiving the loving guidance

and energy that is available to all of us.

Archangel Uriel from Archangel Oracle Cards by Doreen Virtue, Ph.D.

Archangel Uriel(The Light of God) will  

supply you with the information needed when

you ask. His energy enlightens our minds with 

Divine energy and inspiration. You will notice 

repetitive ideas and inspiration that will pop

into your mind. I encourage you to pay 

attention to these suggestions and write them 

down so that you don't forget them. Your help 

is from the highest source and revealed to you

with love. There is no need to be afraid.


I invite you to receive your guidance with an 

open heart and there will be no need to doubt 

your knowing or other senses. Consider calling 

in your angelic support system and continue

your six sensory life with the peace

and assurance that you are loved.
