When I was a child, I was afraid of 21 things; ghosts, being alone, dentists, dogs, cats, and rats, etc. that were running wild throughout my neighborhood. My mother was a fearful woman and I took after her.

It wasn’t until I became a teenager and the school pianist that I began to shed some of my fears. The music soothed my soul and I was good at it. Unknowingly I was building my mental mind base.

But it wasn’t until I began studying meditation with a group of people who took me under their wings and taught me how to use my fears to help others and myself.

The main lesson I learned was how to sense whose fears I was taking on, a common problem among sensitive people.

Recently while having a tooth pulled, I got a sudden pain over my right eye. I assumed it was sinus and tried to rid myself of the pain. Instead the pain became more intense. Once the tooth was extracted I opened my eyes and saw the dental assistant and knew instantly that I’d attracted her headache. She confirmed my thoughts and said, “I had a bad headache and now it’s gone.”

The down side of being a psychic was that I had taken on her problem. Yuk!

If only I’d known to ask these three basic questions:

1. Was this my headache or had I attracted it from someone?

2. Once I knew the answer, all I had to do was visualize the person’s headache dissolving itself.

3. Lastly why did I need to have this lesson?

Answer: The more I learned; the more I could help others and myself.

My physical brain is now in harmony with my spiritual brain.

If you found this story helpful, or have one of your own to share, I’d appreciate hearing from you.

May 2010 bring you endless opportunities for success, good health, and love.
