There’s a on-physical law that guides us and moves us.

Spirit is continuously trying to communicate with you. And they have much to teach you, if you listen.

CHAPTER 1
Why People Struggle About Talking About Spirit
I've always been bewildered by the fact that we all find it easier to talk about spirit when we are going through trying times in our lives. After the death of a loved one or a difficult separation or whatever the situation is, I'll often hear some people say: "This just happened, do you think it's a sign?" Even in an organized church setting, there is much mention of spirit. At funerals we find comfort in saying: "They're now free" or "They're in a better place now". Well, where is this place? And why do we still find it so difficult to talk about it? In our day-to- day lives, the very mention of the word "Spirit" is still very taboo. In fact I was chastised by my own church during the writing of this book by the mere fact that it's about spirit. Something I didn't think was still happening in this day in age. Which is absurd to me, God himself is a spirit we pray to. If we tell other's their loved ones are with God when they pass from this world, does that not mean they're spirit too? If we talk to God and he hears us, do they not hear us too?" It makes me wonder, are we spiritual beings only half of the time? Why is it ok to just talk about in some settings but not others?
That being said, there seems to be a shift in the world towards spiritual awareness and consciousness. However, there's still a lot of work to be done in this area. There are a growing number of spiritual leaders merging the spiritual world into our everyday living. There's a collective awareness taking place. However, what's missing are more platforms for people to be able to discuss the topic of spirituality more freely and openly. I know for me It's always been natural, I have always seen myself and others as a spiritual beings first.
CHAPTER 2
What It Means to Recognize When Spirit Speaks to Us
Recognizing the signs from spirit is like a compass; it helps guide us through our lives. When we are going through struggles in our lives, these are often the times where we are more open to recognizing these cues. I've heard myself and other people say: "Wow, I wonder if that was a sign?" or "I wonder what that meant?" When we can learn to recognize these symbols, it helps us find the comfort we need. It reassures us that we are not alone in this classroom called life. There is confidence in that. Sometimes I'll just ask out there in the ether: "What should I do about this situation?" Especially if it's a situation that I'm struggling with or a decision I'm grappling with. At that exact same time there will be a very clear sign that will come to me, and I'll be like: "Thank you.
That's the push I needed to make the decision". Although you can't see them, your loved ones are always around you waiting to guide and help you, but they can't help you if you don't ask, I believe there are many people in the world feeling lost, without direction. I've seen so many feeling depressed, unsure about their futures, doubting themselves and questioning their next steps.
Even the people who claim to "have faith" have so little confidence in themselves and the Universe around them. If you are one of them, I want you to realize that there is something else out there than what is happening in front of your eyes. I want you to regain confidence in the things that you used to believe in. I want you to reclaim your own power, and regain confidence in your own judgement. If you believe that what you're seeing or hearing is a manifestation from spirit then it is, stop doubting it and start trusting in yourself. After all you are a spiritual being living a human existence and not the other way around. You have a "knowing" inside you that is more powerful than anything else in this physical world. This "internal knowing" was entrusted in you by your creator, whatever you may call him, and it is "all knowing". You have to learn to trust in it.
CHAPTER 3
How to Recognize the Signs and Symbols Spirit Uses to Help Us Heal
Over the years I've identified symbols or signs that spirit uses when trying to communicate with us. There are definitely more, but these are the ones that keep recurring in my life and many of the lives of my loved ones. See if any of these resonate with you.
CHAPTER 4
Synchronicity
"Synchronicity or Coincidence is really divine intelligence acting upon our thoughts".
~James Van Praagh
I call the first type of sign synchronicity. This can also be called serendipity, just like the 2001 movie with John Cusack and Kate Beckinsale. Another word for synchronicity is coincidence. But I don't believe in coincidences. I believe there are only synchronistic events. I believe every encounter in our lives is predestined and happens to teach us something. For example, a lot of times I'll be thinking of someone I haven't thought about in a while — and I know this happens to a lot of people — and that person ends up calling me or I'll run into them, even if it's been a long time since I've seen them or heard from them. I've also heard stories where for some reason a person is running late or they take a different route and they find out later that there's been an accident on the street they usually take. I suspect it wasn't a coincidence at all that they ended up taking a different route. I believe that a spiritual intervention took place and they were meant to avoid that accident
Often times when we notice a synchronicity, a lot of us will brush it off and say: "Oh, wow, that was a coincidence!" I think that where we get empowered is when we recognize and affirm that there is an actual force out there that we can't explain. That maybe it isn't a coincidence, maybe we are being spiritually guided. That's where we find our power. It's in the comfort of knowing that we're not alone. We are always being guided and we need to learn to recognize it.
My friend Sylvie shared this account with me: "In 2012, we found a lump on my breast. From there I had to go for a Mammogram then a biopsy. The toughest part for me was waiting for the results. It took about a month from the time we found the lump to my appointment for my results. You can imagine the emotions that goes threw your mind. So when the day finally came to find out, I was sitting in the waiting room with Ray my fiancé, when a man came and sat right in front of us. There were very few people in this large waiting room but this man chose to sit right in front of us. If I didn't know any better, I would have thought it was my Dad. My Dad died of emphysema, so for a long time he had...
