Enjoy reading some inspirational articles and stories from readers of Hiring the Heavens.
Be re-inspired! Listen now to this motivating interview.
I first heard of AmondaRose Igoe when she called me a few years ago to express her gratitude for Hiring the Heavens. She explained how the concept had been the missing link for manifesting the life of her dreams. We have been friends ever since.

I admit that I’m a personal growth junkie. I even became a
professional life coach so that I could help others with transformation. This
was also a convenient way to justify all the time I spend going to workshops and
sort of explains the tower of self-help and spiritual books that I have on my
bedside table. My teenage daughter told me the other day, “Mom, read a novel
for a change.”
Some of us are just like this—we crave the inner world. We want to understand the beliefs and patterns that shape our lives so we can make more conscious choices. We want access to our inner guidance system in a way that is tangible and trustworthy. We know enough to be wary of the many guises of ego even as we fall prey to be judgmental, blaming, and attacking of ourselves and others.
So it’s such a blessing when practical tools and practices
come along that can pull us off the self-reflective mental merry-go-round and
help us get our feet solidly on new ground. Jean Slater’s Creative Mystic
program has been just such a gift to me. Starting with learning how to dowse, I
began to feel that I had access to knowledge, wisdom, and consciousness that I
couldn’t reliably get to before. Yes, I’d have glimpses of it at times but
dowsing was an efficient and effective way to get it. Almost like finding a
room at the top floor of your castle that you didn’t know was there and opening
the door to find volumes of books with answers to the questions you’ve always
pondered. How silly of me that I never explored the top story before.
But dowsing is just the beginning, really just a tool on the
journey inside. In her Creative Mystic program, Jean has compiled a hugely
valuable assortment of processes and resources that are literally like maps
that lead to various treasures. With the Creative Self Illumination process, I
can dowse where the issue resides in my life, what would be the best way to
gather the information I need to better understand it, and the best way to
transform it. It’s the difference between wandering around in the dark by
yourself and having a trusted guide with you who also happens to have packed a
flashlight, water, compass, map, and snacks to boot!
Life especially these days, does seem to be more intense
than usual and I think that’s because we’re in a period of rapid evolution. I
also think we’re all up to the task and we wouldn’t have missed this
transformation for the world. And although pain is part of life, I think we
also need to acknowledge and move through the suffering quickly because we’re
all here to make a big difference on the planet. The tools in the Creative
Mystic program have enabled me to get in, deal with the issue, and move on much
more efficiently and with a lot less drama.
We’ve never before had to deal with evolution that is
demanding this much change from us, this rapidly. It only makes sense to use the tools and
expertise from someone who’s scoped the territory and can help on the journey.
Jean Slater is an invaluable guide and her Creative Mystic program is a must
for anyone committed to their own journey in growth and consciousness.

All I wanted was the truth.
What I got however, was a massive dose of deception. And so did you for that matter. We’ve all been duped into believing that we
are separate from God, which has got to be one of the all-time greatest
spiritual challenges that we have ever faced.
(God being just one of many words used to describe the source of
unlimited creative potential of which we are a part of and couldn’t be separated
from even if we wanted to be.) Truth is
we are multi-dimensional beings with an unquenchable thirst for adventure. (Spiritual amnesia…who’s idea was that?)
Now, as much as I believe that we all have what it takes to
become a fully enlightened master like Jesus or Buddha, the odds of that
happening for me in the lifetime are pretty slim. What IS possible however, is to communicate
with our Higher Self and learn how to interpret and utilize the information and
guidance we receive in order to enhance our earthly experience. In this way we become our very own personal
psychic, yet there is way much more to it than that. Asking, “What does my future hold?” can only
be answered by you. After all, who knows
you better than you?
When I want to know the truth about something, I always go
directly to the source – the part of me that’s holding all the cards, so to
speak. At times the guidance comes in
bits and dribbles in the form of insights, intuition, and synchronicities,
while at other times the guidance seems more like a command that I am given to
follow. Once when I was confused about
which direction my career should take, I had a dream that specifically told me
the name of a man that I needed to ask for a job. Although I wasn’t sure what kind of job I was
supposed t ask him for and I was scared to put myself out there like that, I
did it anyway and was hired on the spot.
Establishing a connection to my higher guidance has
certainly been a labor of love. Here are
a few disciplines that have worked for me:
Relying on higher guidance has become a way of life for me;
it’s about me learning to trust me and knowing what is for my highest and best
good. And, when I feel concerned about
my future in this ever-increasing chaotic world, I affirm that I will be guided
to exactly where I need to be. And so
will you.

I am a Natural Health Practitioner and many of my clients come to me frustrated with the results they have received from conventional medicine. Fortunately the type of client I attract is one who feels their health and well-being is their responsibility and are searching for answers to help their body do the healing, which by the way, is the ONLY one way healing takes place. Healing can be facilitated by others but ultimately your body has to do the healing.
But then there are some clients that lament about the side effects they are experiencing from the medications that have been prescribed by their doctor and feel they “have to” follow the doctor’s advice as if his word is law. Rather than following the doctor’s advice blindly remember that no one knows you better than you and you are in charge of your body and what goes into it. Doctors are there to give advice – just like a financial adviser or any other such counsellor – but you are the boss. The doctor works for you!
