Caidin was always very gentle during the pregnancy. I don't remember him ever kicking. Instead he would lightly stroke. I envisioned him moving his hands to explore his surroundings. He uses his hands a lot today. He likes to touch our face with a similar gentleness.

Any way - late in the pregnancy I got this intense pain on my right side and I realized he must be laying on something. So I asked him to move, he did and the pain went away.

I spent my entire pregnancy connected to him, communicating with him and doing things for him, me and the two of us that provided a peaceful experience.

Blessings,
Christine

Wealth At Hand: August 08 Newsletter

Wealth At Hand

By Christine Agro

Manifestation, specifically the manifestation of money can be a full time preoccupation. But that preoccupation can stop our manifestations from happening. I was recently listening to Mantra Meditation for Creating Abundance by Thomas Ashley-Farrand and a phrase that he used resonated so deeply with me. To paraphrase he said when we want to manifest money what we are really asking for is to have Wealth At Hand. Abundance can be many things; abundance of love, abundance of debt, abundance of chaos. So how do we create an abundance of wealth? How do we manifest all that we want?

Although philosophies such as The Secret suggest that focused attention on your goal is the key to success, what we fail to realize is that the place from which we attempt to manifest can actually stop our manifestations from coming in. If you are trying to create through your Ego or your Mental Body, if you are creating out of fear or lack, chances are you will not be able to fully create what it is you desire.

The Ego is that part of us that thinks it knows everything, that part that knows better. That part that wants to create something because someone else has it, or we feel we are owed or entitled to something, the part the holds our victim energy. The Mental Body is that part of us that needs to figure everything out. The part that analyzes, or even over analyzes how we get from A to B. Or even worse, the part of us that feels the need to control how we will get from A to B.

Manifestation attempts that come from fear and lack start with a pure focus on money and we will never manifest money through fear. Money is simply energy. In the reality we live in, money has been given an inordinate amount of weight. We either have it or we dont. We chase it, it controls us. However, if you look at money as an exchange of energy - for example I have this and I need or want that; I exchange what I have for what I need or want. The weight on money goes away.

The key to manifesting what we want is living as Spirit. If we are living as Spirit, when we seek to manifest we manifest through our Spirit with our ego and our mental body available to receive guidance from our Spirit.

3 steps to manifesting through Spirit

Stating Our Passion and Purpose

Stating our passion and purpose is the first step to living as Spirit. A statement does not have the how or when or in what way that something is going to happen. When we add these elements we are speaking from the Mental Body and/or the Ego which strive to control how something manifests. That control can stop our manifestations from happening.

Heres an example of a passion and purpose statement: To be a voice and an advocate for children. When presented this way we allow Spirit to guide and direct us in how our passion and purpose manifests in our life. You may become a pediatrician, a social worker or maybe a teacher, but Spirit will guide you to the path that is right for you.

Now heres an example of a passion and purpose statement controlled through the Mental Body and the Ego. I want to be a voice for children by having my book on the New York Times Best Sellers list. That didnt even feel good to write. Can you see/hear the Ego dynamic in the statement?

The Ego seeks for us to be validated, to be seen, but external validation requires that we give power away in order to receive that validation. When our validation comes from within we create our own power.

Handing Everything Over To Spirit

Once we understand that Spirit will guide us for our highest good, it is simple to release to Spirit all of the worries and concerns generated by our Mental Body and our Ego. And by simple, it truly is simple. Sit in meditation, or if you dont meditate, close your eyes and ask your Spirit to handle whatever it is that you are worried or concerned about. This request comes through the heart space not through the mind. As soon as you do this you may notice an immediate sense of release, even relief. If you find yourself focused on the same concern, trying to figure out how youre going to make something work, release it to Spirit again. The more you do this, the more you recognize when it is your Mental Body or your Ego that is trying to make something happen.

Stepping into Certainty and Knowingness

As we evolve, our Spiritual journey takes us from a place of unconsciousness, to a state of Trust and Faith and eventually to a place of Certainty and Knowingness. In our unconscious state we live in fear. Fear of the unknown. Fear that we cannot survive. When we move into a state of Trust and Faith we live in the knowingness that something greater than us; the Universe or God or we even see our higher self as something outside of ourselves but we acknowledge that this something will provide for us. When we move into Certainty and Knowingness we acknowledge that the something greater is us. It is our Spirit that provides all that we need, that holds the plan for our life and that guides us if we just release and listen.

The New Earth

Eckhart Tolle made The New Earth a household phrase. Living as Spirit is how we will create The New Earth which is an earth with infinite possibilities, one where we choose to live in consciousness and knowing. Where we manifest with grace and ease, through Spirit and one where our Mental Body and our Ego accept guidance from our Spirit.

Stem Cell Therapy For Animals

christineagro — Sun, 27 Jul 2008 09:09:47 GMT

Stem Cell Therapy for Animals

Vet-Stem is a company that has perfected the use of stem cells extracted from an animals own abdominal fat. No ethical dilemma, no red tape. Interestingly, but not surprise, both humans and animals have stem cells in their own body fat.

These are less powerful than embryonic stem cells, but there are no side-effects and no problems with rejection since the donor is also the patient. And there is no controversy, since there is no need for an embryo.

Vet-Stem, a laboratory in San Diego has developed the technology to separate the stem cells from the fat, then places the stem cells in injection syringes and ships the stem cells back to your vet for injection.

Statistics show that 80% of animals treated in this manner show improvement. The cost: approx. $2500.

Visit http://www.vet-stem.com for more information and a list of vets trained in this procedure.

Animals Hold A Natural Ability To Self-Heal, and So Do We

christineagro — Sun, 27 Jul 2008 08:35:47 GMT

Animals Hold A Natural Ability To Self-Heal And So Do We!

By Christine Agro

Over the years, animals have shared with me many amazing insights into how we as humans impact our own health and wellness.

The very first lesson was powerful and awe-inspiring. Two different animals showed me that the body has a natural ability to heal. Both humans and animals can tap into this innate ability, but by far animals tap into more readily and more often.

Dis-ease starts as energy. Dis-ease manifests into something physical or tangible so that we can see the energy and clear it. When we are supported through natural measures, the body, energetic or physical, can then realign itself and healing happens.

The first two animals I worked with, one was a cat and the other a dog, demonstrated their amazing connection to their body and this natural ability to self-heal.

Simon Perry was my very first animal reading. Prior to Simon, I had been working solely with people. At the end of a reading I was doing for his person, she said to me I know we are at the end of our time, but do you think you could look at Simon Perry? And honestly, I had not idea. But I went back to my training, cleared all the negative and anxious thoughts and prepared my reading space as I would for a person. Up came Simon Perry with all sorts of information to share. Simon had a terrible food allergy and he could only eat cooked chicken and rice. If he ate anything else, his face would erupt with open sores.

The first thing I noticed was that Simon Perry had all the same elements that I would see with a person he had Spiritual agreements, he had chakras or energy centers, he had different energy bodies. Like many humans, he was holding energy for others, and that energy was influencing his physical body.

I did a complete reading of him, talking about what energy he was holding and why and then had one of my healing guides go through his body and do whatever was necessary to help Simon Perry. I remember seeing large gelatin like balls being pulled from Simons lymphatic system. Once my healing guide finished, I closed the reading space. I had no attachment to this process, which is one of the necessary components in supporting the natural healing ability. I offer a means to see the energy and move it, but it is the individual who does the work.

Simon Perry greatly improved overnight. But there was still a residual of the allergy energy. So we did one more session, moved more energy and today he is allergy free and able to eat whatever he chooses.

The second animal I worked with was a dog named Sysco. He had a tumor in his chest and his outlook was not good. I had been doing work with his person, well call her Jan. She called me and said Do you think a reading with you would help? In truth I didnt know, but having just experienced, a week earlier, the amazing grace and ease with which Simon Perry released energy and information; I knew Sysco would benefit form the reading one way or another.

So I met with Sysco. Set up my reading space and again the information flowed. Sysco was carrying energy for his people. They had experience a loss and Sysco, as many animals will do, was supporting their healing by holding their grief and sorrow energy. This grief and sorrow manifested into the physical as the tumor in his chest.

The more I delved into the energy, I realized that Sysco was mirroring Jan. Jan was running the grief of her husband in an effort to help him heal. I explained this to her and most importantly, that running her husbands energy did not take his pain away; he still needed to process it and deal with it on his own, only now they both were carrying it. She understood what I was explaining and vowed to be conscious of this dynamic.

We then turned back to Sysco. I explained to him that his job was done. He had brought this to Jans attention so he could let go of the energy if he chose. I then did some energy healing work, helping him to release. After the reading, Jan also spent time talking to Sysco about her own Spiritual work and growth, letting him know that she had heard his message.

A week later at a follow-up vet visit, the tumor was gone. The vet was perplexed. I on the other hand was in awe of Syscos ability to heal himself. Once the energy was addressed and the information shared, he easily let it go. It was amazing to me that animals, unlike humans, dont associate with their dis-ease states. They dont label them, or buy into them as life altering conditions. What they know is that something is out of balance. Point out where that imbalance is, share the information that supports the growth of their human, provide the means to support the natural healing ability and they are happy to heal.

The only time healing doesnt occur is when the dis-ease state is part of an animals way of leaving this world, and they are quick to let me know that. We all need a way to transition from this body, so if that is the purpose of the dis-ease state, readings and energy work can still be a great support, but we cant, nor should we try to, change Spirits process.

We can all learn a great lesson from our animal friends about our attachment to dis-ease. Dis-ease begins as energy. Left unaddressed it manifests into something tangible that we have to look at. But if you remember that at its root the dis-ease state is comprised of energy, you seek to understand that energy and you release your control and fear of that energy, you too can tap into your natural ability to heal.

Blessings to you and your animal friends!

Living As Spirit: July 08 Newsleter

christineagro — Wed, 25 Jun 2008 20:18:11 GMT

Living As Spirit

We have a wonderful gift in this lifetime to create Heaven on Earth and in the process we come to live as Spirit fully and completely, moving away from doing and into being.

In the Conscious Living class, we learn many tools that enable us to be. Among these, include purity of heart, mind and body; living consciously; and one of my favorite, wearing Spirit on the outside.

Let me tell you how I received this piece of information and the importance that wearing Spirit on the outside holds.

During a meditation one day, I was sitting and looking at the shift humans have been involved in. I was looking at our growth and noticing that we are stepping away from all those ways and places that we hide our light and our Truth. As I looked at this I was shown a picture of myself with Spirit deep in my heart and I realized that I was hiding my Spirit. Although it radiates out from and through my heart space, by wearing it on the inside, I was hiding it and using my body to shield and protect it.

If we are Spirit with a body, and not body with a Spirit, then shouldnt our outer layer BE Spirit? So I set my intention to turn myself inside out and wear Spirit on the outside. What a difference this made. With Spirit on the outside, my mind and ego quieted even more, my need to remind myself to align with Spirit disappeared and the beautiful, graceful sense of life as Spirit was no longer challenged. When we wear Spirit on the outside we are Spirit. We are walking, living, breathing Spirit, available for all to see.

So try this: set your intention to wear Spirit on the outside and let me know what happens.

Blessings,

The physical body

christineagro — Tue, 24 Jun 2008 18:58:16 GMT

I've noticed that mine, and many of my clients are going through interesting physical body experiences as the energy on the planet shifts and as we step more and more into living as Spirit.

A few weeks ago I started getting pain in my upper jaw on the left side. It appeared out of no where, would last for a while and then go away. Then it moved down to my lower jaw, still coming and going.

I went to the dentist and he thought I would need a root canal. He took an x-ray and there was nothing evident. He gave me an antibiotic which I never take, in fact I take no medication, with the exception of my thyroid medicine because I have yet to find a way to balance it naturally. I took the antibiotic and the pain went away. All the while I felt that the energy wasn't mine. I called numerous people who 'popped' into my thoughts to see if they were having any problems with their teeth - no one was.

We had scheduled a trip to visit my parent. My dad is a dentist and he too thought I would need a root canal. So I trotted off to another dentist and everyone was both surprised and confused to find the nerve in my tooth to be vital.

Another instance occurred when my vision was blurring. At night I was seeing halos and having difficulty seeing in general. I went to the eye doctor and she went through a number of tests. In the end, she concluded that I still have 20/20 vision in both eyes.

Clients have experienced symptoms of gall bladder attacks, ulcers, heart problems and all after extensive testing have found nothing to be wrong.

I've looked at it and what I am seeing is that as we shift into this new way of living as Spirit, we have choice. In our old existence, these conditions would have manifested and required medical attention. In our new existence, it is enough to acknowledge the energy and our desire to heal, and we do.

My son dropped a large rock on his foot - immediately it began to swell and turn black - a sure sign that it was broken. I took him to the doctor and it was fine. The swelling and the bruise disappeared almost over night.

When we live as Spirit, the physical conditions that are rooted in a 3rd dimensional reality, can no longer plague us.

It is a fascinating experience, and quite confusing to the doctors who are certain of a diagnosis, only to find there is nothing wrong once they perform their tests.

Blessings,
Christine

Wonderful Alignments

Cappy — Sun, 01 Jun 2008 00:30:52 GMT

This class has been such a wonderful adventure! From the first night, so many things clicked into place Spiritually and otherwise! Throughout the past 5 weeks, I've met more and more people in alignment with my path. So much wisdom and knowledge has surfaced. Things I've asked for or listed to do "some day" magically materialized. Healings happened. The tools Christine taught through this course have proven invaluable in bringing me into alignment and helping me to achieve more than I thought possible in such a short time. I have become unstuck in many areas and expanded Spiritually. And I am so happy and grateful for the time Christine and the other students have put into this experience. I believe the coming together of our collective Spirit made this class such a fun, unpredictable adventure.

I whole heartedlly recommend this experience to anyone interested in Spiritual growth and expansion into Conscious Living!!!

Using Psychic Pictures With Your Animals

christineagro — Fri, 30 May 2008 20:23:01 GMT

Animals see our psychic pictures - the pictures we project when we think about things.

For a few years now I've been experimenting with this tool, applying it to everything from training to communicating.

With Christopher The Cat, the senior cat who joined our home two years ago, I've showed him a couple of pictures. One is yowling in the bathroom at night rather than in front of our bedroom door. So now he goes into the bathroom and yowls. The other is laying at the bottom of the bed rather than on my head - and he does.

Pick a few things you want your animal to do and start playing with projecting the psychic picture. Let me know how it's going. It's really fun and such a great way to communicate with our animal friends.

Not sure how to get started?

Close your eyes and call up a picture of your animal.
Viola...there's your psychic space! How simple was that!!!
Now, using that picture you called up, say hello to your animal and then see him or her doing what is that you'd like them to do.
Show them this psychic picture whenever you want them to do this action.

That's it - it's simple, it's easy and it's fun for both you and your animal friend!

Blessings,
Christine Agro

Animals See The Truth Of Who We Are

christineagro — Fri, 30 May 2008 19:59:27 GMT

What is it about animals that make us better human beings? Its simple, in their presence we are forced to strip away all of our false pretenses and stand in the Truth of who we are. If we dont they react to us in a way that indicates our in-congruent state of being.

Im often asked by dog lovers, Why does my dog lung and bark at some people and not others? Or by cat lovers, Why does my cat automatically go to the person who hates cats? Those people that trigger your cat or dog are presenting something different on the outside from what they are experiencing on the inside. Maybe its fear, maybe its insecurity, maybe its invalidation, but whatever the energy, the animal is detecting an in-congruent state of being.

If you have children or work with children you know, the younger they are the more difficult it is for them to tell a lie and get away with it. They are pure truth and the in-congruent nature of telling a lie is actually uncomfortable for them in their physical body.

As we age, we learn to mask and hide our Truth. The reasons are many; to fit in, to protect ourselves, to feel better about ourselves (or so we think); and to fill the emptiness we may feel inside. And as we learn to mask and hide our Truth, we move further away from living in a state of Being.

As adults we become so used to making excuses and hiding our Truth that we lose touch with that uncomfortable feeling in our physical body, or we mask the feeling so we dont have to deal with it.

Animals dont buy into our masks. They see to the core of our being and when what they see on the outside doesnt match whats on the inside they react. If the animals in your life are reacting to you in a way that doesnt make sense, look for where you show something different on the outside from what you are feeling on the inside. They react this way to a stranger because the person is in-congruent or they may react this way to protect you, so again look at what you are really holding inside when you are in these situations. Maybe theres a child inside you thats afraid of strangers, or of men, or of being seen as you truly are.

Theres two easy ways to shift this dynamic. First be conscious of the tales you weave and strive to be truthful with yourself and with others. I used to be one of those people who would make excuses, justify or tell white lies when I had to break a date or even call in sick to work when I wasnt on my death bed. As I delved into my Spiritual work I began to understand that the excuses, justifications and white lies were diminishing to my own light. Eventually I came to realize that I did this to make people feel better or to validate my choices. I can now break a date by simply saying I cant make it. How liberating.

And second use this simple tool: When you identify something youve buried deep inside or are trying to hide, picture a bubble out in front of you and let it go into the bubble. When you do this, you release the energy and enable yourself to move forward with your growth.

If your animals are responding to in-congruent information whether in you or in strangers, I highly recommend working with Flower Essences as they support an animals natural ability to heal and they gently support the shifting of energy dynamics. If you want to learn more about Flower Essences and identify ones that can support your animal friends, I have a special offer everyone reading this: visit this link to download your copy of my Flower Power For Animals: using Flower Essences to Support, Heal and Transform for $2.95!

conscious living - my experience

goldenlight — Thur, 29 May 2008 19:18:39 GMT

As always when I go through guidance with Christine, I am put on an intense spiritual growth period. This class was no exception. But this time I was able to a greater extent be an observer, as opposed to be in the middle of the 'drama' LOL. I learned to let go of the old, come out of my 'hiding place' (LOL) and stand more steady in my own light. This is no small task for someone who has been hiding for all her life (maybe more). By focusing on our hearts desire we can learn to simply flow and let things come to us. WOW! I had a great time! Thank you Christine!!

Mercury Retrograde May 28 - June 18

christineagro — Tue, 20 May 2008 18:54:54 GMT

We are in the shadow days of a Mercury retrograde. When Mercury goes retrograde things connected to communication, travel, exchanges of any kind, computers, and technology can get crazy. Two retrogrades ago my Palm Treo broke.

Many people, me included, begin to feel the affects of a retrograde during the shadow days. This retrograde is in Gemini - an air sign. Air signs rule the mental body.

I've already begun to see and feel the affects of this retrograde. My mental body is in overtime revisiting, reviewing, reassessing- my brain is spinning. At times I'm finding it even hard to focus or collect my thoughts. Even writing this post, I find my mind unable to focus.

Where I'm finding help is when I ask Spirit for help. Making this connection helps my mental body to take a break. The other thing that's helping is using Purple Monkey Flower Essence (FESflowers.com) Purple Monkey Flower helps to balance psychic energies or in this case planetary energies.

The good news is if you move into retrograde during the shadow, you will also move out before it's fully complete.

So as my brain clears, I'll be back with a more collected follow-up. But until then, I hope this information helps.

Blessings,
Christine

mid way through week 2 (week of May 4)

christineagro — Thur, 08 May 2008 02:12:03 GMT

Each time I teach this class it is a powerful experience but this class, we have certainly kicked it up a notch.

The participants are all powerful, and are all working on releasing the need to hide that power.

This week, it became apparent that everyone is working on a similar core picture and each student is dedicated to making a life altering change.

In our private Conscious Living forum the conversation is on going with each of us sharing our experiences and supporting each other in the growth process. This in itself increases our personal power.

Each course becomes it's own unique program. Although the basic tools are the same, the program shifts to address what the group is working on.

What is emerging is a need to look at the difference between validation and acknowledgment. I've found in my own life that understanding these two energies can alone change your life.

I am very honored to be guiding this group of dynamic Spirits.

If you are thinking about taking this course, the next one starts Sunday, July 6 at 7pm and it runs for six weeks. Please link back to my site by clicking the 'christine agro' above and then clicking on Conscious Living Tele-course for more information.
