Amazing Story of Healing and Near Death Experience

In all my years of working as an intuitive, I have learned one thing for sure: everything has an energetic cause and an energetic solution. Last week I received an email from my friend Fred Burks, sharing a story that confirms this about a woman who was instantly healed of terminal cancer during a near-death experience. It is beautiful, amazing and inspiring, and I wanted to share it. Blessings, Dana

*

The highly inspiring near-death experience below was written by a woman named Anita who went through a most extraordinary experience in her near-death sojourn. Anita's descriptions of what happened on the other side of the veil and the miracle healing which confounded her doctors show that life may be much more than most people think. Read on and drink in the rich wisdom and inspiration of this powerful near-death experience which has touched many thousands around the world.

Anita's Miraculous Near-Death Experience

I had cancer (Hodgkin's Lymphoma), and on this fateful morning, I could not move. My husband rushed me to hospital. After doing scans, they diagnosed me with grade 4B lymphoma (the highest grade). The senior oncologist looked at my report and told my husband that it was too late, that my organs were now shutting down. I only had 36 hours to live.

The oncologist said he would do whatever he could, but prepared my husband that I would most likely not make it, as my organs were no longer functioning. They started me on a chemotherapy drip as well as oxygen.Then they started to take tests to determine what drugs to use.

I was drifting in and out of consciousness during this time. I could feel my spirit actually leaving my body. I saw and heard the conversations between my husband and the doctors taking place outside my room, about 40 feet away down a hallway. I was later able to verify this conversation with my shocked husband.

Then I actually "crossed over" to another dimension. I was engulfed in a total feeling of love. I also experienced extreme clarity of why I had the cancer, why I had come into this life in the first place, what role everyone in my family played in my life in the grand scheme of things, and how life works in general.

The clarity and understanding I obtained in this state is almost indescribable. Words cannot describe the experience. I was at a place where I understood how much more there is than what we are able to conceive in our three-dimensional world. I realized what a gift life is, and that I was surrounded by loving spiritual beings, who were always around me even when I did not know it.

The amount of love I felt was overwhelming. From this perspective, I knew how powerful I am and saw the amazing possibilities we as humans are capable of achieving during a physical life. I found out that if I survived, my purpose now would be to live “heaven on earth” using this new understanding, and also to share this knowledge with other people. However I had the choice of whether to come back into life, or go towards death.

I was made to understand that it was not my time, but I always had the choice. And if I chose death, I would not be experiencing a lot of the gifts that the rest of my life still held in store.

One of the things I wanted to know was that if I chose life, would I have to come back to this sick body, because my body was very, very sick and the organs had stopped functioning. I was then made to understand that if I chose life, my body would heal very quickly. I would see a difference in not months or weeks, but days!

I was shown how illnesses start on an energetic level before they become physical. If I chose to go into life, the cancer would be gone from my energy, and my physical body would catch up very quickly. I then understood that when people have medical treatments for illnesses, it rids the illness only from their body but not from their energy, so the illness often returns.

I realized if I went back, I would return with a very healthy energy. My physical body would catch up to the energetic conditions very quickly and permanently. I was given the understanding that this applies to anything, not only illnesses, but physical conditions, psychological conditions, etc.

I was "shown" that everything going on in our lives is dependant on this energy around us, created by us. Nothing is solid. We create our surroundings, our conditions, etc. depending on where this "energy" is at. The clarity I received around how we get what we do was phenomenal! It’s all about where we are energetically. I was made to feel that I was going to see "proof" of this first hand if I returned back to my body.

I was drifting in and out between the two worlds. Every time I drifted into the "other side", I was shown more and more scenes. There was one which showed how my life had touched all the people I had come in contact with. It was sort of like a tapestry and showed how I affected everyone's lives around me. There was another which showed my brother on a plane, having heard the news I was dying, coming to see me (this was later verified to me, as when I started to come round, my brother was there having just got off a plane).

I then saw a glimpse of my brother and me and somehow seemed to understand it was a previous life, where I was much older than him and was like a mother to him (in this life, he is older than me). I saw in that life I was very protective towards him. I suddenly became aware he was on the plane to come and see me, and felt "I can't do this to him. I can't let him come and see me dead". Then I also saw how my husband's purpose was linked to mine, and how we had decided to come and experience this life together. If I went, he would probably follow soon after.

I was made to understand – as tests had been taken for my organ functions and the results were not out yet – that if I chose life, the results would show that my organs were functioning normally. If I chose death, the results would show organ failure as the cause of death, due to cancer. I was able to change the outcome of the tests by my choice!

I made my choice to live. As I started to wake up (in a very confused state, as I could not at that time tell which side of the veil I was on), the doctors came rushing into the room with big smiles on their faces saying to my family, “Good news! we got the results and her organs are functioning. We can’t believe it!! Her body really did seem like it had shut down!”

After that, I began to recover rapidly. The doctors waited for me to become stable enough to do a lymph node biopsy to track the type of cancer cells. Once completed, they could not find a single lymph node big enough to suggest cancer. Yet upon entering the hospital my body had been filled with swollen lymph nodes. They then did a bone marrow biopsy to assess the cancer activity so that they could adjust the chemotherapy according to the disease. Yet there wasn’t any cancer in the bone marrow.

The doctors were very confused, but told me it must have been a rapid response to the chemo. Because they themselves were unable to understand what was going on, they made me undergo test after test, all of which I passed with flying colors. Clearing every test empowered me even more! I had a full body scan, and because they couldn't believe they didn't find anything, they made the radiologist repeat it again!!!!

Because of my experience, I am now sharing with everyone I know that miracles are possible in our lives every day. After what I have seen, I realize that absolutely anything is possible, and that we did not come here to suffer. Life is supposed to be great, and we are very, very loved. The way I look at life has changed dramatically. I am so glad to have been given a second chance to experience “heaven on earth”.

March 2010 Monthly Visions:

I had a very vivid, insightful dream the other night. I was hovering above the Earth, watching as light started pulsing onto and all over our planet, coming out from the centre of the Galaxy. Mother Earth was adjusting herself this way and that, turning and twisting to absorb as much as possible, ensuring every part of her got the light. In the process things were getting a bit shaken up down here, but she had to get the light. Not just for herself, but for all of us. Like any mother, she was doing what was best for her children, even though from the children's perspective it doesn't seem like a good thing at all!

March 2010 Monthly Visions: Mother Earth in Labour

March Monthly Visions: Mother Earth in Labour




I had a very vivid, insightful dream the other night. I was hovering above the Earth, watching as light started pulsing onto and all over our planet, coming out from the centre of the Galaxy. Mother Earth was adjusting herself this way and that, turning and twisting to absorb as much as possible, ensuring every part of her got the light. In the process things were getting a bit shaken up down here, but she had to get the light. Not just for herself, but for all of us. Like any mother, she was doing what was best for her children, even though from the children’s perspective it doesn’t seem like a good thing at all!

The dream continued. People were getting angry at Earth. They felt she was punishing us or that we were somehow being punished along with her. They were yelling about the impact all this adjusting, turning and movement was having on the people. They felt like it was a battle between the people and the Earth (and the Earth changes). Mother Earth was hurting that no-one understood what was happening. She wanted everyone to know “I am doing this for you. I am doing this to help you. This light is here to help you. It is here to awaken you.” She knows that in adjusting and turning to get the maximum light there are going to be side effects. But to not receive this light as it flows to us is not possible, nor preferable. As intense and shaky as it is to have this amount of light flooding us – and having Earth move herself about to absorb it to the fullest potential – the alternative would be to press pause on cosmic movement and stay stuck where we are. There is no way around this shift, there is only a way through.

It takes Earth 26 000 years to go through this particular cycle we are now in. Consider it a 26 000 year pregnancy. Every 26 000 years our Sun aligns with the Equator of our Galaxy, and from a visual perspective it looks like we are aligning with the centre of the Galaxy. The Mayans called this point the ‘spiritual rebirth’ point, so it makes sense that the closer we get to this point the more intensely we feel what is essentially Mother Earth in labour. According to ancient cultures this point heralds a challenging time for humanity, yet also offers an unprecedented opportunity for a mass shift in consciousness and ultimately positive change. From emergency comes emergence. Our breakdowns will lead to breakthroughs.

Whether you are a scientist measuring the current and coming amount of electro-magnetic energy pouring down onto us, or a spiritually minded person calling it light, it’s really the same thing. The good news is it doesn’t mark the end of the world. The Mayans refer to their cycles as a ‘world’ eg we are now witnessing the end of the 5th world and the beginning of the 6th world. On Dec 21 2012, the 26 000 year Long Count Calendar resets to Zero Point, and a new cycle/world begins. As you can imagine with such a long cycle, the transitional stage as we shift from one cycle to another isn’t a one day event. We have been in the window of ‘era-2012’ since 1980 and it will continue through to 2016. I came across a wonderful cartoon last week in Aluna Joy’s newsletter (www.kachina.net) that showed a Mayan standing there with the calendar saying ‘I only had enough room to go up to 2012’ with his mate laughing say “That’s really going to freak someone out one day.”

Humanity are freaked out now, but I strongly believe it is not the shift itself that is creating the panic. It is the ‘not knowing’ that triggers fear. The majority of people associate 2012 with the end of the world, and the Chilean earthquake on the weekend, so close to the Haiti quake, triggered that fear even more. People are starting to wonder if the prophecies are true, without realising that the mainstream and Hollywood versions of the prophecies are born of fear and lack of accurate information.

We have to remember that this is the end of a cycle, not the end of the world, and the shifts we are experiencing within us and around us are part of the process. As much as we would love to go from pregnancy to birth with one quick easy and graceful movement, the fact is that most labours are intense and challenging. I’ve heard more than one mother say that at some point she was saying “I want to go home now, I can’t do this!” Yet all the mothers did do it, their bodies ultimately knew what to do even if their conscious mind was freaking out. Likewise, the body of our Mother Earth knows what she’s doing. Our bodies too know what to do in these times. While we can’t all get a manual and itinerary telling us what’s going to happen when, we can learn to trust our bodies, trust our instincts, and trust that we will be exactly where we need to be in each moment and we will know what to do. It’s not until you are in the middle of a crisis that abilities and qualities you never knew you had surge to the surface. This doesn’t mean we all have to experience a crisis, it just means that we are all better equipped to handle crises than we give ourselves credit for.

There is a lot of fear and panic energy flying around now, with people feeling like they have no control over what is going on. This puts us in victim mode, where the shift is happening ‘to’ us. If we can look at it like the shift is happening ‘for’ us, we can experience it in a more empowered way. We can ask, if it is happening ‘for’ us, why is it happening? If it is truly happening to usher in a new era, a new consciousness, a new reality, then what do we want that new reality to look like? Sitting in fear we ask “what’s going to happen?” thinking the worst. Standing in empowerment we can start asking “What do we want to have happen?” and start visioning a new world. It is true that when you have been “shaken like a giant for a minute and a half” as those in Chile experienced over the weekend, and are now surrounded by chaos and destruction, the fact is most people’s thoughts will be on immediate survival mode. It is during these events that those of us who are able to be as conscious as possible, whether we are in the affected area or halfway across the world, continue to be so, in order to help in as clear and constructive a way as possible.

Why is the knowledge that we are the creators of our reality suddenly in the mainstream consciousness?? Surely not because the world is about to end, that would make no sense! “Hey everyone, here’s the Law of Attraction knowledge! It’s time to remember you get to create the reality you want. You can use this for your own life and to change the world! Oh, p.s, you’ve only got 3 years to play with this Law and then it’s game over. Enjoy!” I don’t think so!! Doesn’t it make more sense that perhaps we are remembering and being given this knowledge now because it is the very tool we need to help make our way through the shift? Doesn’t it make sense that it is the very tool we need to start creating the world we want to live in?

We are waiting to find out what will happen beyond 2012. Meanwhile the creative energies of evolution and consciousness that exist beyond 2012, that have already arrived here now, are awaiting us. They are awaiting instruction. They are awaiting our imaginings. The buildings are awaiting the builder. The creations are awaiting the creators. We don’t have time to waste on fearing the worst. The Earth is going to go through whatever she needs to go through. When things happen we can pray and assist however we can, but going into panic or resistance is not going to help anybody. We can go into despair and overwhelm (and with so many people suffering or dying it is human nature to want to do so), or we can do something productive. The best use of our energy now is to ask: What can I do? From there trust that whatever you do is good be it sending prayers, helping bandage someone right in front of you, visualising everyone in new, self-sustainable homes, being kind to people, loving yourself, contributing to a humanitarian project, growing your own garden, hugging a friend, it all counts. People have mocked energetic support as having no use, but at the same time ‘spiritual’ people have not wanted to participate in physical support thinking ‘it must be their karma to be going through that’. We have to let all those old ideas go.

Spiritual/energetic support is just as powerful as physical support. Physical support is just as important as spiritual/energetic support. There is no set ‘right thing to do’. The only ‘right thing to do’ is to follow your own feelings and instincts from one moment to the next. Don’t assume that the right thing for you to be doing is right for everyone, and let’s not judge each other’s ‘right thing to do’. Also, don’t assume that your ‘right thing’ isn’t effective enough or that one person doesn’t count. Have you ever seen a jigsaw puzzle with one piece missing? Every piece counts. We all have a piece of the puzzle, so really there are 7 billion ‘right things to do’. It’s time to go do yours. Earth and humanity need you.

February 2010 Monthly Visions: Helping Haiti…and why did it happen?

For anyone who is a regular to my Monthly Visions, you’ll have read something I say a lot: we are moving into a new vibration where anything not in alignment with that vibration is now in the process of collapsing or transforming. You cannot take your analogue system with you once the national switchover is made to digital television, so too with our old vibrational reality. So, aside from an increase in natural disasters as a natural result of the Earth's shift, we are particularly seeing the effects in poorer areas first, because all that is vibrating at a low level can no longer be sustained. Out of context, this sounds like a totally heartless Universal mantra so I will elaborate, and stress the following point....Read more here:

Feb 2010 Monthly Visions: Helping Haiti...and why did it happen?

February 2010: Helping Haiti...and why did it happen?


“What I have been saying for these 20 years is that "water retains information". And the information which affects water the most is people's mind. It functions as if water were the mirror of our heart. I don't think that water deep underground is not an exception, and believe that the state of energy of such water becomes as if it is reflecting the mind of people who live on the ground. What I think is that an earthquake may occur due to the disparity in energy level of water in faults. The greater the disparity is, the stronger the quake may become. There were earthquakes in the Indian Ocean off Sumatra and in the Philippines, and this time in Haiti. If my assumption stated above is correct, I would think that they occurred because the energy level of people who live in those areas, on those grounds, may be low, and that the energy level of economy in such areas may be very low. The way to alleviate the present disastrous situation in Haiti would be monetary donation, because money is the energy that has the same property as water.”Dr Masaru Emoto, Hado.Net Newsletter*



For anyone who is a regular to my Monthly Visions, you’ll have read something I say a lot: we are moving into a new vibration where anything not in alignment with that vibration is now in the process of collapsing or transforming. You cannot take your analogue system with you once the national switchover is made to digital television, so too with our old vibrational reality. So, aside from an increase in natural disasters as a natural result of the Earth's shift, we are particularly seeing the effects in poorer areas first, because all that is vibrating at a low level can no longer be sustained. Out of context, this sounds like a totally heartless Universal mantra so I will elaborate, and stress the following point: I am not suggesting we take on a simplistic, new agey head in the sand attitude like “People in poor areas just need to lift their vibration’. That is certainly part of it, but there is a bigger picture here. ALL that is vibrating at a low level can no longer be sustained. If you keep reading you’ll see that there is a very heart-full higher purpose to these words, simultaneously acting as a warning and a calling, beseeching us all into a higher level of being which includes a higher standard of truth, accountability, responsibility, use of power and care for Earth and humanity. The obvious situation is that Port-au-Prince, the capital of Haiti has collapsed, however something even bigger is being called to collapse and transform: the international conditions that allowed a country to collapse in such a tragic way and allowed it to live in such an inhumane way for so long. The vibration of everything has to increase from individuals to international relations and everything in between. All of it.

Neither consciousness without action eg ‘lift your vibration people!’ or action without consciousness ‘here have some money people’ on their own are going to work as sustainable solutions. The two have to work hand in hand. While ultimately we are all responsible for our own level of consciousness and vibration, and thus responsible for the contribution we make to the consciousness and vibration of our family, home, country and world, it works the other way around as well. The collective consciousness of our world, country, home and family, influences our personal level of consciousness and thus the ease in which we can rise up...or not.

Many on the spiritual path have a detached attitude of non-interference when it comes to political and global issues, using old karmic perspectives like: “They must be in that situation for a reason”. While individual consciousness is certainly a factor, ie every one is being called to lift their vibration right now, poverty consciousness cannot exist where we are going, we also have to take into account the responsibility of our collective consciousness. That is, what are we doing to help people rise above poverty consciousness and conditions, and more importantly what are we doing that is actually keeping them down on that low level? Can someone rise above a certain level of consciousness and conditions if there are governments or organisations at work deliberately repressing them just like a lid being pushed down on a pot of water? The water WILL rise eventually, but at what cost???

Okay, everything happens for a ‘reason’, but consider that the reason may be to trigger we the people into a vibrant, active consciousness so that we might start asking: “Why in such a wealthy world do we allow people to live like that?” so that we might start demanding and placing pressure on international governments to change the way they treat their neighbours. We have been numbed by media to such an extent that we think it is ‘just the way it is’ that most of the world live in unacceptable conditions, but it doesn’t make sense that they do in light of the available resources.

‘Globally, the annual military expenditure stands at 780 billion dollars. The total amount required to provide global health care, eliminate starvation and malnutrition, provide clean water and shelter for all, remove land mines, eliminate nuclear weapons, stop deforestation, prevent global warming, ozone depletion and acid rain, retire the paralysing debt of developing nations, prevent soil erosion, produce safe, clean energy, stop overpopulation and eliminate illiteracy is only one third that amount – 237.5 billion dollars.” – Dr Helen Caldicott, The New Nuclear Danger (2001)



As the media shines its microscopic lens into Port-au-Prince we are not just seeing the victims of an earthquake. We are seeing the victims of a world that doesn’t share its wealth, that doesn’t look after it’s brothers and sisters, that doesn’t provide access to (or even awareness of) many available resources and technologies. We have not seen that this world has had every opportunity and ability to do so, but has chosen not to. This is not limited to the world’s treatment of Haiti, but extends to its treatment of all those in need, both within developing and developed countries. When I refer above to the ‘world’, really I am talking about the world’s power elite, an old paradigm group mentality that has got to be voted off the island already.

As I watched the Haiti tragedy unfolding on television, I caught myself thinking: “Why is it that the worst natural disasters seem to hit the countries (or cities in the case of New Orleans) that are already suffering the most? Does an earthquake or tsunami have a ‘poverty magnet’ and decide “Now, who shall I target next? I know! How about the poorest country in the Western Hemisphere? Haiti!” Yet strong quakes occur in wealthy cities and countries too. Just a couple of weeks before the 7.0 Haiti quake, a 6.5 magnitude quake happened off the coast of California. No major damage or injuries were reported aside from the popping out of a few windows and smashed bottles that fell off shelves in liquor stores and supermarkets. In July 2008 a 5.4 quake had its epicentre only 30 miles east of Los Angeles. “No serious injuries or major structural damage” there aside from “rocking tall buildings and rattling nerves” (Whitcomb, Reuters). In the words of Arnold Schwarzenegger, Los Angeles was “very lucky”. Lucky is one way to look at it. Structurally sound, at least in comparison to Haiti, thanks to an abundance of financial support is another.

'We will be judged by how we treat the least among us' – attributed to Jesus

Compare this with Haiti where, according to the mayor of Port-au-Prince, 60% of buildings were shoddily built and unsafe in normal circumstances. 80% of Haitians live under the poverty line on less than $2 a day. (Associated Press). We can safely say that while natural disasters certainly aren’t limited to poorer countries, they definitely have more catastrophic consequences.

International governments are now sending aid but the question has to be asked: Where have you been???? Was it their job to help out countries like Haiti while they were busy with their own countries? Yes actually it was! In 1970 the United Nations set as a target that the world’s ‘rich nations’ contribute 0.70% of their Gross National Income (GNI) to Official Development Assistance. With the exception of Sweden, Norway, Luxembourg, Denmark and The Netherlands, the ‘rich nations’ are not meeting this target. When I included this fact in my book A New Chapter I noted that the US’s contribution in 2005 was only .22% of their GNI ($27.5 billion) yet they managed to find $420 billion that year for military spending. Out of interest today I went to www.globalissues.org to see if the US has improved since then. Sadly they’ve got worse. Their Development Assistance figure as at April 2009 had gone below the .2% mark, although that would have reflected the last year of the outgoing administration. I only hope that the Obama administration is rectifying that situation asap, among the other hundred things on their to do list.

The United Nations’ Millennium Development Goals were agreed on in 2000, to be reached by 2015. They included 8 urgent issues including the eradication of extreme poverty. Kofi Annan at the time said that the ‘rich nations’ had to double their efforts with global development assistance if they had any hope of reaching these goals. They haven’t done that, perhaps thinking there isn’t anyone to hold them accountable. Who can force the most powerful countries in the world to uphold their promises? They clearly don’t have the New Reality manual, otherwise they’d know someone is holding them accountable. Universal Law, Energy and Vibration are holding them accountable. Earth is holding them accountable. She is moving into a higher vibration and poverty cannot exist in a higher vibration. Corruption, greed and abuse of power cannot exist in a higher vibration. We are experiencing a ‘revealing’ of those energies that have had the majority of this world living on shaky ground. The people of Haiti are suffering, but they are suffering more than they had to.

Geologists presented a paper in 2008 concluding that Port-au-Prince, which hadn’t had a major seismic event since 1751, could face a 7.2 earthquake that would be catastrophic given the overall shoddy construction of the city. (Reuters). One can’t help but wonder, if the ‘rich nations’ actually fulfilled their promises, could we have prevented the 100, 000 deaths in Haiti plus the 2 million + people there right now urgently in need of water, food, power and medical aid? Millions around the world are in that same urgent need, and they didn’t even have an earthquake. They just live like that all the time. Do they have to attract an earthquake or tsunami too before we give them any attention??

Natural disasters force governments to help, and trigger all kinds of celebrity driven Hope for Humanity telethons and concerts, and an upswell of individual giving which is wonderful, but it’s sad it takes a natural disaster to do that and at the same time we can’t be lulled into thinking this is a one-off unavoidable tragedy, donate $10 and go back to our normal lives. Haiti was in trouble for a long time before this quake, and many other countries are in trouble right now whether it’s lack of clean water or rising sea levels threatening the survival of their people.

We are led to believe that our rich countries are stretched to the limit, and absolutely are doing all they can. In actual fact, international governments have promised to do a whole lot more, and have been breaking these promises in a big way for at least forty years.

This isn’t about picking up the financial slack where our governments have failed. Of course help however you can, but what we really need is a mass awakening from apathy to anger, and from anger will come the passion and demand for governments to change the way they are running our world. The media has to start giving more productive, fact-based (not fear based) information, and stop repressing and ignoring information that we have a right to know. If there’s only one new thing you do this week, it is to become conscious of the degree to which you personally demand greater justice and balance for this world and to lift it up a notch. Consciousness is not immediately physically visible, but consciousness counts. It is our growing collective consciousness around the kind of Earth and Humanity we want to have, and the guidances you will naturally receive around what you personally can do, that will ultimately create it. Wherever a higher consciousness exists, a lower consciousness cannot, and that is how we can literally squeeze out the lies, corruption and abuse of power too many people have been suffocated by for too long.

The international governments can’t keep pressing their eyes shut, hoping much like children playing hide and seek that if they don’t actually look at the world, the world won’t be able to see them and thus they won’t have to do anything about its condition. The Earth is moving into a higher vibration, but too many of the power elite are still desperately trying to hold on to their old ways thinking no-one will notice. Events like the Haiti earthquake are making people aware of previously ignored human brothers and sisters. We are noticing perhaps for the first time the conditions in which they were living, before the quake. Yet it is not enough to look at Haiti and think ‘poor people, they didn’t have a chance.’ I wish that international leaders would be more honest about their broken promises and say “Those people did have a chance. We were supposed to give them a chance. We just chose not to.”

“I am a firm believer in the power of small steps – a lot of people doing a little and having this add up. This is the essence of “piti piti na rive,” my favorite Haitian saying – little by little we will arrive.” Margaret Trost, What If? Foundation Founder

Things you can do:

• Visit: http://www.whatiffoundation.org/  to help with food and water, and read on the ground news

• Visit: http://www.earthship.net/haiti-disaster-relief.html to help with shelter and sustainable housing planning

• Spend 10 min a day in meditation, focusing on your breath, connecting with your heart, feeling yourself as part of All that Is. When you do this regularly, this state of being becomes more and more familiar to you, making it easier to sustain during the day. This connected state is a higher state of consciousness. You can do a lot of good from this state, and will more easily be guided to the best ways in which you can help others.

• Gravitate to positive, empowering sources of information and media.

• Find a way every day to do something good, kind or giving. Call a friend you haven’t talked to in a while, cook a meal for someone who is super busy or super stressed, smile more, tell your partner you love and appreciate them, hug your kids.

• Visualise what you would like your world to look like – your home, your work, your community, your country, your Earth.

• Tell yourself every day: I can make a difference, conscious action counts!

Visioning the Dream Awake: January 2010

January 2010



What's New this Month!



- Create a Life you Love E-Course (formerly Your New Chapter): Pay what you Want


- January 2010 Monthly Visions: Breaking Free!


- Message Boards: Shifting into your New Reality


- A New Chapter Clearance Sale


- Soul Sessions



Happy New Year everyone! In these times the evolution and awakening of humanity, and every one of us within it, is paramount. In a nutshell, our Earth is shifting into a new dimension and all beings, all systems, all structures, have to shift up with her - or shift out. It is literally like the phase the US just went through of making all television sets digital, where everyone was asked to change over, because the day came when the old analogue just didn't work anymore. This shift applies to everything from personal emotional patterns and mental beliefs, to economic systems and the environment. We are being called to align with the higher energies raining down upon us. People are saying "I hope 2010 will be better than 2009, 2009 was so hard!". How you experience this year will totally depend on the degree to which you align with the higher energies and your own higher self. If you allow yourself to go with the flow your own good instincts are directing you toward (I talk about this in this month's Monthly Visions) then this year will be the most fabulous year you have experienced yet. If you resist your own flow and choose to follow old thoughts and beliefs, it will be hard for as long as you stay in resistance. Don't take my word for it - you will feel it in your own body and life. Watch your thoughts - manifestation is happening very fast now to the point where something you think is going to show up in your life faster and faster for better or worse. If you ask for a certain amount of money that you absolutely need to pay a bill; bang, it will arrive. Likewise, if you fall into an old pattern of say criticizing yourself or judging others or doubting the Universe's ability to provide for you; ouch, you might feel it instantly in your body with a sore neck or tight knot in the stomach. Your body is helping you - it wants you to align with the higher energies and it will show you very clearly when you are not.



My work is to help people remember who they are, understand this profound shift that we are going through, and have the journey through it be as empowering as possible. My deep knowing is that we are all amazing, divine beings with limitless untapped potential. My passion for this work is fuelled by this knowing - and by the anger I feel knowing that much of humanity has intentionally been repressed on all levels (spiritual, technological, energetic, economic, mental, emotional, physical, environmental, the list goes on) by certain elements. We are living in a world where we can have free energy for all, healthy bodies, well-fed people and happy lives doing what we love, knowing our true history and place in the Universe. This is not a new-age fantasy, it is fact. A very small percentage of humanity knows this and it is time everyone knew it. It is time for truth to be revealed. This is an exciting time to be alive.



Apocalypse: from the Latin Apocalypsis and Greek Apokalupsis meaning Revelation



2010 - I make a toast to our freedom and empowerment as more and more of our higher and greater truth is unveiled and revealed!

January 2010 Monthly Visions: Breaking Free!

January 2010: Breaking Free!




Welcome to 2010! This is the year of owning your Power and Being who you really are. I would like to invite you now to take a moment to commit to doing that. Set your intention clearly for the coming year. See yourself as owning your power and being who you really are. You may not know what that looks like, or how you will get there. Doesn’t matter. Your intention is everything. A heartfelt prayer, along with a deep willingness to let it in, will show you the way.

In fact, the less of an idea we have of what ‘owning our power’ and ‘being who we really are’ looks like the better. We have so many false ideas and beliefs around what this is supposed to look like for us, that may be totally off track as far as our true self and highest potential is concerned. Oprah has this saying that I love “God has a bigger dream for you than you could ever possibly dream for yourself”. Our conceptions of what is possible for us are like glass ceilings bumping up against our heads, causing us to feel frustrated even whilst we are convinced we are striving to reach our greatest heights. We are so much greater than we allow ourselves to believe. Likewise, our ambitions of what is desirable may be based on old and outdated versions of who we once were, or thought we were, or were told we were, leading us on a golden-plated brick road: looks good on the surface but is fake underneath.

When we have a strong intention to own our power and be who we really are, surrendering the how to God/the Universe, following the moment by moment cookie crumbs, we will find our bliss. We will find our bliss every day along the journey, and we will find it within our various destinations. Our destinations may match our goals and dreams exactly or far surpass them or look nothing like them, only better. Let life surprise you!

People often ask how to ‘follow the moment by moment cookie crumbs’, feeling they have trouble tuning in to their intuition. Firstly, let’s get clear on what intuition is. It is how your true/higher/authentic self communicates with you. It is with you ALL the time, voicing itself via your daily feelings and inspirations. What do you feel now? What do you want to do now? If you want to know what your intuition is saying at any given moment, answer those two questions honestly and you’ll know. If your answers feel complex and multi-layered it helps to write it out. What started out as “I feel totally bored and frustrated!’ is your intuition saying something like “I want a different kind of work” or “I love my work but I want more business” or “I want to work less and play more”. Give it a chance to speak and it will definitely come out on the page!

I think that most of us have no problem tuning in to our intuition, only we don’t realise that’s what it is. Our problem is not that we can’t hear it, our problem is that we chronically ignore it, fight it, over-ride it and talk ourselves out of it. Then we wonder why we aren’t getting to where we want to go.

Our intuition (frustration) says: “It is time to leave this marriage, it is emotionally and physically unhealthy for you. You will be so much happier when you set yourself free.” Our fear says: “You can’t live alone, you’ll never make it. How will you survive?”

Our intuition (passion) says: “I would love to change career and study something new.” Our doubt says: “You’re too old. You’ll never find another job. You have a mortgage to pay. Stay here.”

Our intuition (inner guidance) says: “Give me ten minutes to tell you something in a meditation or in your journal and you’ll have so much more clarity about this.” Our stressed mind says: “I’m too busy. I don’t have time.”

We all have intuition, but too often we don’t follow it. We like how it feels – it definitely feels better than the critical, negative alternate thoughts – but we have this strange problem trusting good thoughts and feelings. Maybe we think we don’t deserve good things? Maybe we feel life can’t be that easy? Bottom line is, most people believe in their doubts and fears, more than they believe in their intuition. Yet when we follow our own inner promptings, they will never let us down. We have to learn to trust our intuition, more than we trust our doubts and fears. We don’t trust it because it often asks us to do something that is beyond our comfort zone. Whether it’s a huge thing like leaving a job or marriage, or stopping our busy-ness for 10 minutes to have some meditation or journaling time, we are wired to look at the risks of doing so. We have developed this really unhealthy human mantra “I can’t, because ...”

Following our intuition often requires making a leap into the unknown, which can be scary, but it is also feels exhilarating, exciting and expansive to our soul.

We are all being called now to make a great leap in consciousness, and thus great leaps in our daily lives, great leaps into the unknown, and are being challenged on every level. With any leap to a higher vibration, it is the way of energy that anything not in alignment with the new vibration is brought to our attention. When you commit to a new level of success, health, love or abundance, you can be sure that all your old beliefs, habits and patterns will rear their heads! In setting our intention to own our power and be who we really are, all we engage in that contradicts our intention, within ourselves and externally, will be made known.

On the one hand this is great. The louder and more obvious a belief or pattern is, the easier to clear it right? However, sometimes this can feel downright disheartening. Depending on factors like our history, level of consciousness and emotional state we can feel like a force beyond our control is trying to keep us down when every bone in our body is trying to rise up and shift forward. Making a quantum leap isn’t easy – if it were, we’d be doing it every day in every way – and sometimes it can feel easier to stay in the old, familiar mould you’re used to. However when we are designed to reach our highest potential, as I believe we all are, we have to find a way to break free of our old moulds or risk living a life that feels lacking in life. Breaking free has two components: 1) Don’t under-estimate how strong your old mould is. There is power in acknowledging it and it’s affect on everything from who you believe yourself to be, to what you create/attract in your life. 2) Don’t under-estimate your ability to break free of the mould, nor your strength to do so. You are stronger than the mould. The mould is not you. The mould is that which has been covering you.

I got to thinking about this when I was looking at the way the new sunflowers are growing, that I recently helped my sister Jelena and her partner Danny plant outside the house. They all started as identical seeds with identical potential, however external conditions have definitely moulded them differently. Those sunflowers that receive the most light due to their optimum position are the tallest and look the strongest. Those by the wall that receive a few hours less of direct sunlight a day are much shorter, and seem more delicate. I mentioned this to Jel, wondering if the smaller sunflowers would catch up to the bigger ones. She told me about their corn.

Jel and Danny planted their corn seeds into individual pots. As the first shoots began to show, they re-planted about half into the ground. They re-planted the other half a couple of weeks later. The corn that had gone into the ground first shot up, and ended up about 5 feet tall. The second lot of corn, that had spent more time in the individual pots before having the freedom to grow in the ground without limitations, was less than half the size. It didn’t catch up to its larger brothers and sisters.

I thought about how we humans are like that too. If we receive all we need to grow, it is much easier to be the successful, healthy, prosperous ‘sunflower’. When we don’t receive all we need, especially in childhood, we tend to emerge into adulthood with issues like low self-worth, self-doubt and lack of self-love. Strive as we might to become the tall sunflower, we repeat the story of our childhood over and over again sabotaging our movement forward. Even while we desire to change, it is like we are somehow programmed to live within certain restricted conditions bouncing back into our box each time our head gets too close to the ceiling. Whilst some people have been raised to think “I can do whatever I want” others were taught the exact opposite. Thus the mould begins.

Two-thirds of prisoners re-offend and end up living more of their lives in prison than outside it. When restriction becomes our comfort zone, we don’t even know how to be in freedom. Whether it is literal freedom, or the freedom of a new level of income, success, health, love, power or authenticity, that which we most desire can also be that which we most fear. It is new and unknown, and if we’ve never truly had it then it can feel like the scariest thing in the world to move into it. Our doubts and fears have a field-day letting us know why we can’t, while our intuition is in each moment showing us how we can.

Whether we are conscious of it or not, growth and evolution is our natural state of being. In a state of non-conscious evolution, when we aren’t aware of things like our intuition or how to use it, we spend our lives bouncing around between banging our head on the ceiling, and slumped on the floor with exhaustion and frustration wondering what we’re doing wrong. Worse, we may not even realise there is a higher level above us to which we can aspire. In a state of conscious evolution we are aware of that higher level and are equipped with more tools to guide our way there, like the acknowledgement of our intuition, yet still it has been my professional observation, and personal experience, that consciousness alone will not get us there.

We need a fuel, a rocket-launcher, to literally propel us from one level to another, to help us make our quantum leaps. There may be many, but one rocket-launcher is definitely Focused Intention and an unwavering Commitment to follow it’s trajectory no matter what. Too often we don’t get lift-off because we set our intention, the doubts and old beliefs invariably come up, yet instead of dismissing them with a simple ‘Yes I thought you might show up, well goodbye, I’m off to higher ground’ we let ourselves get pulled down by them. We analyse them, we explore them, we try to understand them, we try to heal and release them. We give them attention and focus, and we all know: you end up where your focus is. So back in the box we remain.

People often ask me about the role of action in our leaps of consciousness. Surely we have to DO something to get from here to there if we have a goal? Well yes, having set your intention, and committed to following your moment by moment cookie crumbs, follow the answers you get to your 2 important questions: What do I feel now? What do I want to do now?

Finally, another action that I’ve found to be very powerful, literally propelling the rocket up, up and away, is the action of saying no to all those doubts and beliefs that crop up once you’ve set your intention. Whether they come from within, or are mirrored to you by external circumstances or the opinions and behaviours of those around you, they will come, guaranteed. Your job is not to wonder “Now why have I attracted all this negative re-inforcement? I must not be ready.” Your job is to smile and say “Yes yes I was expecting as much. Well can’t stay and chat, I have greener pastures to head to” and keep your intention on your focus.

When we do this we are over-riding our old mould program, and allowing ourselves to break free into the Universal program that has no limits. In this program, whatever you think about tends to manifest quite rapidly so it’s a good thing we really don’t break free into it before we’re ready. However you are now ready. We have had our training, and we are ready for rocket-launch!

Start the New Year by setting your intention. If you know you need help with certain things ask the Universe/Creator to help you. You don’t have to do this alone, and we aren’t meant to do it alone. The Universal forces are all around you, just waiting to help you whether you want to embody more calm and patience, abundance, empowerment, self-worth or joy. Ask and you shall receive.

Visioning the Dream Awake: December 2009

December 2009



What's New this Month!

- December Monthly Visions: Farewell to 2009 and Wake up to 2012...


- Soul Sessions: Phone, Skype and Email Sessions also In-Person + Christmas Gift Certificates

New Message Boards: Shifting into your New Reality -Ask Dana and Share your Stories and Insights

I often receive emails from people who have general questions about the various aspects of conscious evolution and this new reality we are all shifting into personally and collectively: manifesting, how to tune in to your higher self and intuition, meditation, soulmates, feeling lost and confused etc. These questions are universally asked, and when shared they can help others who are feeling the same way. I thought it would be great to have all these questions in one space, and I've wanted to add a message boards function for a long time, so today I went ahead and did that! I'll be popping in regularly to respond to posts, yet more importantly I wanted to create a community Q&A space that anyone can visit anytime they need to seek support, receive inspiration, have a bit of a release or share an experience or some wisdom. As well as posting questions, I invite everyone to share your thoughts, stories and time, as we all have unique and insightful perspectives and contributions to make. What is easy or obvious to you, might be the lightbulb moment, healing balm or piece of inspiration someone else needs that day. Likewise, there is no such thing as a silly question, so don't feel your question is probably not worth asking. If you're having a hard time with something, you can be sure millions of other people in the world are too. Now is the time for us to step up and help each other, so go have a browse, ask a question, share some love and I hope you enjoy this new addition!

December Monthly Visions: Farewell to 2009 and Wake up to 2012...

As we edge toward the last days of 2009 the usual busy-ness of the festive season seems like a calm walk in the park compared to the last minute 'zappings' everyone seems to be getting right about now. Have you dealt with your power issues? Zzzzzzap! Have you really? Zzzzzzap again just to be sure. Have you dealt with your inner child stuff? Your lack mentality? You're 'I'm not good enough/I'm not worthy/Who am I to be great and successful and loved' beliefs? Zap! Zap! Zap! It's like some crazy angel has got a hold of a police taser and is running wild with it, giggling with glee at the fun of it.

"I was pretty much flabbergasted by not only the soul session information, but how beautifully and lovingly it was described and written. What I felt most was ocean depths of sheer relief because I finally found someone who really understood what was happening. Thank you for being so upfront! It takes courage and spirit to speak from the heart and be willing to share real truth. You are truly gifted and have obviously done much work to get here to this place." Linda, QLD, Australia

"The clarity and insight you have provided is astounding. You seem to have hit the nail on the head on so many things, that I forget we don't actually know each other!" Mandie, Mullumbimby, Australia

The Natural Soul: Near Death Experiences

Due to a slight change of plans The Natural Soul wasn't immediately available when I let you know about its upcoming launch in the Oct newsletter. Happily, all is now back on track! So if you were interested and couldn't wait to get a hold of this book you can now order it here: www.barbarawhitfield.com

Everyone is fascinated by the topic of Near Death Experiences. What happens when we pass? My friend Barbara Whitfield, an expert, therapist and near-death experiencer, has appeared on Oprah talking about this subject. Barbara's latest book The Natural Soul contains a wealth of research and real life experiences. The predominant message is that we are eternally alive: our Souls have life before, during and after this incarnation. While our physical bodies may have an expiration date, we, the WE that we really are, don't ever die. I was honoured to write an endorsement for the book, as follows:

The soul is limitless Life and Love Being, and the stories shared in The Natural Soul left me with a profound understanding of this truth. Barbara writes that our Soul is who we are right now - not some kind of Spiritual concept or higher part of us 'out there'. It is who we really are if we only take a moment to look at and feel our real self. It is who we are before life, during life, and after life. Indeed, our soul is life itself; eternal, unbreakable, and in every moment connected to all those we love regardless of distance or on which side of the veil we or they reside. - Dana Mrkich, Author of A New Chapter , Sydney, Australia.

Dec 09 Monthly Visions: Farewell to 2009 and Wake up to 2012....

December 2009 Monthly Visions: Farewell to 2009 and Wake up to 2012...


As we edge toward the last days of 2009 the usual busy-ness of the festive season seems like a calm walk in the park compared to the last minute ‘zappings’ everyone seems to be getting right about now.

Have you dealt with your power issues? Zzzzzzap! Have you really? Zzzzzzap again just to be sure. Have you dealt with your inner child stuff? Your lack mentality? You’re ‘I’m not good enough/I’m not worthy/Who am I to be great and successful and loved’ beliefs? Zap! Zap! Zap! It’s like some crazy angel has got a hold of a police taser and is running wild with it, giggling with glee at the fun of it.

In defence of the crazy angel, enough is enough don’t you agree? Enough of allowing yourself not to be treated as you deserve to be. Enough of putting up with relationships or jobs that don’t make you happy. Enough of convincing yourself that ‘real life’ over-rides your dreams. Enough of people thinking they are the boss of your life, or as I like to say the driver behind the wheel of your car. Enough of using old-worn out excuses about why you can’t do this or are still doing that. Even you don’t believe yourself anymore when you say these things. Enough of pretending you are less than you are.

And that’s what it really comes down to: enough of pretending you are less than you are.

You see, for many lifetimes we have all been walking around wearing masks, donning layers of stuff (which we came to call issues) and dimming our light, all for the sake of a big evolutionary experiment. We thought it would be fabulous fun to come to this Planet Earth, and totally forget who we really are. We would get to experience all kinds of emotions: frustration, excitement, anger, betrayal, trust, love, hate, resentment, judgement, passion; it was a literal cornucopia of feelings heaven.

How many times would we have to be taken advantage of before we remembered our natural power and learned to stand up for ourselves? How many times would we have to face the disappointment of parental or societal expectations, and feel bad about it, before we remembered we aren’t here to live up to their expectations? How many times would we have to act like we really weren’t all that smart or talented or qualified or young or old or beautiful enough before we remembered we are divine, eternal, creator beings and are equipped with all we need to do and be all we want?

Clearly, many times!

The Universe has been generous with us. We’ve had plenty of lifetimes to have fun playing this little game. Even within this lifetime, we’ve had years of journeying through issues and themes we’ve wanted to explore. It’s been great. Meanwhile, a looming realisation has been coming over many of us. This ‘game’ was not meant to last forever. This game had a set end date, by which time the aim was to be fully awakened from our self-imposed ‘forgetting’. By which time we would have experimented with and experienced a myriad of issues and themes, and emerged out the other side as the divine souls we always were, yet with new wisdom. That time is nearly here, and one could say it is here.

The Mayans saw, and see, life as a series of cycles. A Mayan cycle of time lasts 5125 years. Five cycles equals a Grand Cycle. The end of a Grand Cycle is coming up at the end of 2012, which is why Dec 21 2012 has always been associated with the end of time. The Mayans did not, and do not, see this as the end of time, merely the end of time as we know it. It is the end of one way of being, and the beginning of another way of being. They foresaw that as one great cycle ended, and a new one began, humanity would experience a giant leap in consciousness – or self-destruction - as the Earth moved from the third dimensional vibration to a higher fifth dimensional vibration. Essentially, the Earth is shifting into a higher level of consciousness – with or without us. We either shift our vibration with her, or we shift out, to put it bluntly.

The end of each cycle also signifies the alignment of our Sun with the Great Central Sun of our Galaxy. When this happens, in non-scientific terms, light spurts out from the Centre affecting our sun, producing intense solar flares, explosions of energy, which affect the Earth’s magnetic fields. Disturbance of the magnetic fields can influence everything from airplane navigational equipment and communications systems to weather patterns and migraine headaches. NASA are predicting a powerful Solar Storm for, yep, 2012, with a potential scenario being all electric power being cut for months. This is not meant to scare, rather when a scientific prediction meets ancient prophecy meets astronomical data, one might want to take notice of that. Personally I find it much easier to deal with things when I know why it is happening. On an energy level, this light is said to trigger mass shifts of consciousness, helping us out from our ‘forgetting’ state and pushing us into our ‘remembering’ state.

So, here we are at the end of 2009 with three years to go. What does now have to do with the end of 2012 you may be thinking? Well, if you look at a 5125 year cycle as being shown on a big galactic clock, we are at 2 seconds to midnight. If we had such a thing as a Grand Cycle Galactic clock, we’re less than half a second to midnight! Just like childbirth doesn’t suddenly happen when the baby’s head emerges, our ‘shift’ won’t suddenly happen on the day of Dec 21 2012 (which is a controversial estimate anyway). Certainly something may or may not happen around then that is a big cosmic surprise, who knows, but essentially we are currently in the intense last stages of labour as the light coming from the Galactic Centre has already started to do its work.

We have already entered the energies associated with 2012, and are thus experiencing the consequences: anything that is vibrating at less than the new vibratory rate to which we are ‘ascending’ is getting pushed out and demolished. Old patterns and ‘issues’ that are still within us, but simply cannot exist in the new vibration (because they are based in fear or lack which doesn’t exist in the higher dimensions), are being ‘tasered’ out of us...zap, zap, zap! That which we have avoided or not wanted to confront is becoming so loud, ugly or huge that it is impossible to ignore it anymore....be it in your personal life, work life, with partners, family or friends, or on the global, political stage. I have never known so many people finding themselves in court to finally resolve an ongoing issue, leaving long-term careers or relationships to pursue something completely different, making major geographical moves, and undergoing what seems like an entire personality change. What used to fit just doesn’t anymore. We have outgrown our costumes, and it’s time to take them off.

What happens to those things (or people) who haven’t shifted by the end of this cycle? What happens to those who have shifted? I don’t know. I’ve asked Mayan priests and Native American medicine men. They all say the same thing: nobody knows what is going to happen. Going back to the childbirth analogy, I guess no-one really knows how the birth is going to go, what the baby is going to look and be like, and who he or she will become as the future unfolds. All I know is I’ve had this loud message inside me as long as I can remember: help as many people as possible wake up. There has been a sense of urgency attached to this message, as if there was a deadline, that they had to wake up by a certain time. I didn’t know until I was in my 20’s what this certain time was, but when I heard about the Mayan and Hopi prophecies, and as the events of the last 8 years have heated up since 9/11, I now know they were referring to these times that we are in now leading up to the end of this cycle.

What does it mean to ‘shift’? To ‘wake up’? It is about remembering our true natures, who we really are. It is about remembering that this thing we call reality is just part of a much greater reality where true reality surpasses our wildest dreams. It is about liberating ourselves, unplugging from ‘the game’, and moving forward as our authentic selves, connected to our Source energy, knowing we are divine, eternal, creator beings.

So, it looks like this crazy angel going around zapping us is actually a helper from this central galactic light. She’s doing it with love, with each zap acting like an alarm clock that won’t shut up until you open your eyes: Wake up wake up wake up! She doesn’t want you to be late for your new job.
