Dear
Friends,
What
a beautiful Autumn we are enjoying here in Portland. The leaves
are turning brilliant colors, but our temperature here is still
in the high 60's; very pleasant! As the year winds down, I
am taking a sabbatical from my practice to rejuvinate.
When
I return after the new year, my practice will under go a change.
I will no longer have on-going one-on-one clients, although I will
offer intuitive readings on a limited basis. Instead, I am
moving my practice more towards group work via teleconference and
in person in small groups. While I've enjoyed working with
my on-going clients, it is time to reach a wider audience.
Next year my essays will be available in ebook form, and I will
spend more time on my blog.
May
you have a wonderful Autumn and Holiday Season!
much
love to all of you,
Elaine

The
Empath in Relationship to the Dissociated Hero
If
you subscribe to my blog you may have followed the journey of one
of my readers as he discovers his payoff in being in relationship
to a Dissociated Hero. Relationships between Empaths and Heroes
can bring balance to the individuals. When both people are
healthy, the relationship is one that draws the Empath out and expands
her gifts while the Empath helps the Hero be real and learn that
he is more than his actions and achievements. However, when
the Empath and the Hero are unhealthy, the relationship can be frustrating
and painful for both. The journey to wholeness usually starts
with the Empath. Here are links to two bloggers who had questions
about their relationship with Dissociated Heroes.

Dealing
with the Fearful Group Think
It's
hard these days not to succumb to the mass consciousness of fear,
anger, and general anxiety. How do we shield ourselves from
group think? The basic thing we must remember is that we are
responsible for our thoughts, emotions, and actions. If we
don't take charge, the local group think (or consensual reality)
will take over and we will begin creating our reality out of consciousness
that's not our own. This is the state of most people today.
We may need to shield ourselves from group think by not watching
the news or reading the paper. We may even need to avoid fearful
people when we're feeling especially vulnerable. This is especially
important for Empaths, who tend to soak up the local emotional atmosphere.
Get yourself outdoors into nature, be silent and watch the birds
forage, or watch your children play. There's nothing more
lightening than children's antics.
We
must remember that we are always creating. Now is a perfect
time to make sure our consciousness is leading the way and we are
not creating out of fear or lack. When we focus on our dreams,
envision those, take those baby steps toward manifesting what we
really want, we free ourselves from the group consciousness.
At least, until we slip up. It's a daily practice!
