Lesley from Dorset wrote in with this intriguing
story.
I lived in Salisbury and one day had to visit
London for work. I had to catch a late tube from central London to get me to
the train station in time to catch the last train back to Salisbury. The tube
was quite empty, except for a couple of individual business men engrossed in
newspapers. The tube stopped at a station and a young man got on. He came and
sat right next to me which was totally unnecessary and unnerving. I noticed
that he had blisters around his mouth, his speech was slurred and his manner
was very aggressive. He restrained me when I attempted to get up and move away
and started to threaten me. He whispered that he hated me and that he would
like to kill me . I was extremely frightened and intimidated by this person who
I realised was possibly a glue-sniffer or high on something. I tried to be
pleasant, even humorous but he was beyond reasonability.
I was petrified so I decided that my only hope
was to escape from him by making a bolt out of the tube at the next available
stop despite it meaning that I would probably be stranded in London that night.
I threw up the most desperate prayer to anyone who would listen begging for
protection and help. I literally was afraid for my life.
The tube stopped at the next station and I waited
till the last possible moment before wrestling away from him and throwing
myself out on the platform but the worst thing happened, he got out too and
pinned me up against the wall. Within seconds, quite unexpectedly, both of the
business men came flying out of the tube and grabbed the boy holding him away
from me. One told me to get back on the tube while they had hold of him. I got
safely back onto the tube and away to the last train home.
Contrary to the stories one hears about people
doing nothing to help anyone, these 2 men probably, prompted by the Angels,
acted altruistically and saved me from heaven knows what. Of course I never got
the chance to thank them but I do get the chance to thank the Angels!
Lesley (Poole, Dorset)
Here’s another story from Melanie in London
My miracle happened earlier this year. I had had a difficult pregnancy, lots of
unexpected pains and problems, yet the doctors assured me that everything was
OK. I read some books about angels, and
was interested, although I had no proof of them. Then one morning I woke and something felt wrong with the baby. I had this overwhelming compulsion to go to
the hospital, and this voice in my head kept saying “Go to the hospital now.”
It was very calm, yet strong and insistent.
I went straight to the hospital and got the doctors to examine me. They rushed me in for an emergency cesarean
birth. The umbilical chord had got wrapped around the baby’s neck and was
choking him. The doctors told me that if I had come in just one hour later, the
baby would have been dead. I’m so
grateful to the angels for saving my son’s life. Liam was born healthy and is now three months old and a bouncing
beautiful baby.
Melanie, London
Melanie was convinced that it was the angels who
had inspired her to go to hospital, and is now very interested to learn more
about them.
If you have a story you would like to share,
please send it in for a future edition. . (Send to angels@lifeworksinternational.com
)
Many people have dramatic examples of something
saving them. These incidents often serve as a spur to find out more.
As well as congratulating Melanie, congratulations
are also in order for Richard Haywood, and his wife Gill. Richard is the unseen editor of AngelSpeak
and the technical expert behind LifeWorks internet and web-site work. Richard
and Gill announced the birth of their third child, a baby girl, a couple of
weeks ago. Mother and child are both well.
We wish them all well.
3. Questions and Answers
Stephanie from North Wales asked “What are the
different ways that the angels can communicate with us, and how do we know if
its them?”
Here’s what the angels say :
We speak to you in a myriad of ways – through
your dreams, via your intuition, by signs (through other people, books,
magazines, leaving feathers, and so on) as well as, occasionally, directly. We also influence small events (e.g. finding
things at the right time) and what you may call ‘co-incidences’. You will be ‘struck’ by a feeling of awe
(best description) when you recognize these. That’s how you know.
You play a role in influencing these events too
(it is a little more complex than you understand). Basically, your soul will
continue to play out its agenda, guiding you.
Your conscious mind and your ego may support you, if they are tuned into
the right track, or hinder you, if they are chasing or obsessed with other
goals and old issues. In this case, if
your thoughts are ‘lower’, it will interrupt the flow of your life, creating
problems, uphill struggle’, two steps forward and one step back, and recurring
patterns, until you learn the lessons and move on. These serve as an incentive
to move on higher.
When all of you is aligned with your spirit and
life path, you can then release old patterns that no longer serve you, and
begin creating more rapidly and easily. The soul knows that joy and ease are
possible and your rightful path. Getting to that inner knowing requires
releasing the past and tuning into your spiritual path. You can call on the
angels to help you at any stage.
To finish answering the question, if you pray
or ask us, you will usually see the response clearly. You will know that we
have answered your request. Otherwise,
all of the above occurrences may be guided by your lower OR higher self. If you look closely, you will usually see the difference. Signs from your lower and higher self (or
soul) are equally worth paying attention to, for they show you ‘where you are
at’ and what you need to deal with next.
Become more aware of what is happening with you, and you will move more
speedily from the lower to higher path.
One of your writers once said that “A life led
unexamined is a life not worth living”.
A little extreme, but certainly a life examined more closely and
regularly will quickly become enhanced.
You will know whether or not you are capable of doing this alone, or
require help from someone (not necessarily Darren). Enjoy conscious learning –
it enhances and enriches life enormously, and helps you make more sense of the
world.
Wow.
That’s what I like about answering questions – channelling answers from
the angels to your questions produces interesting new perspectives to share
with people. Keep sending in your questions. (Send to angels@lifeworksinternational.com

4.
Angel of the Month – Archangel Gabriel
Gabriel
is the archangel of revelation and hope. He (or she) can come to you in either male
or the female form, Gabrielle. With
enlightenment comes hope – a powerful force to move us forward along a new
direction. You can call upon Gabriel for enlightenment, in any area of your
life.
Simply sit quietly and call upon Gabriel to bring
you enlightenment. You might like to
visualize a light shining down on you from above, bringing hope and new ideas
to you. Wait for the light to
finish. Then open your eyes and notice
what new ideas you have. They may come
instantly, or they may arrive over the next few days. Thank the angels in advance for the new ideas that will come to
you. Then notice any new ideas you
have, or any inspiration that is sent to you, over the next few days.
You can call on Gabriel for inspiration with any
area of life – work, relationships, family, spiritual growth, or other.
Gabriel is another of the Archangels which watch
over us and seeks to guide mankind’s development. Gabriel’s work follows on
nicely from that of the Archangel Michael, (see AngelSpeak
issue 2) who helps to cut the ties and free us up from the past. Gabriel’s
revelations and enlightenment then help us move forwards towards our higher
future. Call on Gabriel when you are seeking inspiration for a new phase of
your life.
5. The
Value of Wisdom
Someone once said that wisdom is a funny thing –
you only gain it when it’s too late (after the event).
This newsletter seems to have a theme about the
value of reviewing life – a life examined. It is easy to get caught up in the
hurley burley busy pace of everyday life, getting more and more stressed and
run down, and not take the time to stand back and consider what is happening.
There is value in taking a little ‘time out’ to review our lives – to reflect
what’s going on, what we can learn, and what we WANT to happen next.
Why is it us humans are always keen to push on
and start something else new, rather than review what’s happening? I have always found that taking a couple of
hours out for a three month (or monthly) review to be enormously helpful. Although I find myself often reluctant to make
the time for myself, when I do it (usually with the help of a friend) I am
always amazed at what a big difference it makes. I gain new insights and perspectives, greater clarity, and
renewed enthusiasm for the path ahead.
Yet I’ve never heard any say “Oh Yippee! Its time for a review”!! We
spend time working hard towards things, but don’t stop to review our progress.
I recently conducted a 6 month follow up workshop
for the delegates of one of my earlier courses. We had a great day, and as often happens, I gained much too. Personally, I was reminded again of the
importance of maintaining balance and good health. I love this work, and there
is always more for me to do (there always will be), but I want to enjoy life
too, and I won’t last the distance and smell the roses unless I look after
myself. Generally, for most of us too,
there is more we can do to maintain our well-being and balance in life.
Taking time out (which I have also done since)
has given me new inspiration for developing this angel and life path practice
further. I have received lots of
guidance from the angels about how to develop things further, and help even
more people with this work. You’ll see
the new initiatives coming out over the next few months.
6. Well-being
Practices
One of the things my angels suggested was to
create regular Well-being Practices
– things that will ensure my continued well-being. In case this helps to inspire some of you – here are some of my
well-being practices:
Daily – continue all my regular good habits –
daily meditation, time spent daily talking with my angels, healthy eating,
drinking lots of water, little/no alcohol or caffeine, reading inspirational
books, regular breaks, etc.
New practices:
·
Go for a short walk each lunchtime– breaks up the
day, keeps me healthier, and allows space for reflection and inspiration for
the afternoon.
·
Monthly day off – (and space for new inspiration)
– I often work weekends, so its good to schedule a day off for a walk in the
country, a swim, meet old friends, or do something different to usual. A refreshing
day.
·
Monthly treatment – have a monthly alternative
therapy treatment – keeps me balanced and healthy, and enables me to learn,
explore other therapies and meet new people
·
Six weekly break / weekend away with my partner
Angie, to recharge our batteries and spend quality time together.
·
Conduct Quarterly business review with a
friend/colleague.
·
Quarterly review of how I’m doing with my
well-being practices.
It’s a start.
As I develop regular well-being practices that keep me balanced, centred
and well, I’ll know that I can handle whatever comes along next, and enjoy the
journey too.
Making my health and well-being a priority
enables me to continue to contribute my highest and fullest to the world.
Do you feel it would be good to create some additional
well-being practices for you? What else
do YOU need?
7. Book
a Review or Follow-Up Session
Since the theme of this newsletter seems to have
been the value of conscious living, reviewing progress, and gaining insights
for the way ahead, it would seem appropriate to remind people that I am always
available for further review or follow-up sessions.
It can be highly valuable to review your
progress, explore what is keeping you stuck or frustrated, and free you up to
make further progress. It can also be helpful to renew your connection with
your life path, inner wisdom and angels. Thirdly, it can help you to consider
the necessary next steps in progressing to the next level of your life.
Sometimes, others can see ‘blind spots’ which we can miss ourselves.
I still have some spaces left in my diary for the
first two weeks of July and in August.
Would you like to spend a couple of hours receiving angel guidance about
your progress, blocks, and next steps for you? Like to learn how you can take
things forward to the next level? Does this feel right for you?
If you
have already had a session with me before, and feel it’s a good time for
another, please call me on the usual 01245 460057 or email me at mail@lifeworksinternatinal.com
. I’ll be delighted to hear from you and speak to you again. (For a two hour
session (plus my preparation and angel guidance beforehand) – three hours work,
the fee is £95 for these 3 hours of my time, just over £30 per hour.)
I always like hearing from old clients again, and
hearing of their progress, as I’m always passionately interested in the
progress and success of the people I meet.
8. Life
Review Session
For anyone who hasn’t seen me yet, I am still
available for your initial, Life Review Session. This explores your life path,
developing your angel connection, what may be blocking you, and how to develop
your future. A powerful session. Two
hour session, plus special questionnaire beforehand to help us both prepare.
Prices as above. Will help you develop clarify your direction in life, and how
to move forward with the help of your guides and angels.
This month, I’m also offering a free book on Handling Stress or one of
a number of books on Positive Thinking and Spiritual Growth for the next 3
people who book a session (and come and see me in person). A little extra for you. Just quote this to
claim your free book.
I hope that we will soon get some regular
sunshine and we can start enjoying the summer even more. Sunshine usually lifts
all of our spirits. I wish you a good
few weeks, and look forward to hearing from some of you with your angel
stories, questions, or to book a session.
Let me know if you like this shorter version or prefer the previous
longer versions of AngelSpeak.
PS I'm away on my summer holiday from 11th-26th
July, so please reply before (or after) then, if you would like to book a
session for the first 2 weeks of July or early August.
Best wishes
With Love & light
