“My ears won’t stop ringing, it’s so annoying!” My client started out our last session this way. Her ears had been ringing loudly for days, and it was disrupting her life. She had made a doctor’s appointment to check it out and was just trying to cope with it day to day.
I could tell from our first session together that although she was somewhat protected and guarded in her personality, she was also a very old, wise, sensitive, compassionate and spiritual soul. It’s taken some time for her to believe these things about herself as well, but she is becoming kinder and more loving towards herself every day.
Lately, she’s been feeling very hurt. She’s been coming to the realization that no one in her family truly accepts her. She grew up in a conservative state, in a conservative town, in a conservative family, and she is gay. She came out to her family years ago, and never felt loved or accepted by them because they don’t believe homosexuality is ok.
While she was able to maintain some of her family relationships, recently with all of the political differences happening, rifts in the family are becoming deeper as well. It has been painful to realize the vast differences between her level of consciousness and the rest of her 
family.
She was able to come out to her mom before she passed. Her mom told her that she didn’t agree with that lifestyle. She wasn’t able to give her the unconditional love and support that she truly needed to feel love for herself.
Lately, she’s been angry at her mom for this rejection, and blaming her for how the rest of the family is treating her as well. She knew her mom loved her, even though she wasn’t able to show it or say it.
As I’m hearing her describe all of this in session, I am connecting to her mom who is letting me know that the ringing in her ears is related to this feeling of not being accepted.
She is telling me that she wants my client to know how loved and accepted she is. She wants her to know how sorry she was that she wasn’t able to show her that when she was in a body. She wants her to feel loved.
I’m connecting to my client, to her mom, and to my own energy system to stay grounded. I am aware that while I am honored to be able to share messages that I receive intuitively with my clients, the best way to help others is to empower them to connect to their own divinity, intuition and spiritual abilities.
I communicate to her the fact that our body is always communicating with us. That while of course we should get checkups and take care of ourselves, we also would benefit by looking at the emotional and energetic causes for discomfort in the body.
We talked about her relationship with her mom, and how she wished it were different. We talked about how at the end of life, we all go through a life review and are able to feel the pain that we unconsciously inflicted on others in our life.
That while we are not completely transformed as we transition to the other side, there is often more awareness and understanding than there was in the human body.
I communicated my hunch that potentially the ringing in her ears was her mom trying to communicate that she is loved unconditionally and supported beyond measure. That she is sorry that she wasn’t able to show up for her the way she needed, and she wants her to always know and feel how loved she is.
My client nodded and took in what I was saying. I could tell that she was allowing some of the information into her energy system. But again, I believe that I can help facilitate, but it is always more empowering and healing for people to have their own felt experience of connection.
I encouraged her to spend some time in mediation before our next session to communicate with her mom. Her soul knew what I meant immediately, but I broke it down a bit anyway:
1. Calm the Body:
Do some deep breathing, and/or progressive muscle relaxation.
We have to be in a relaxed state and out of our head to be able to connect.
2. Go to a Happy Peaceful Place:
She likes imagining a beautiful forest next to a peaceful stream.
This continues the feeling of relaxation and increase your vibration. We have to be in a positive vibrational frequency in order to connect to the other side.
3. Be Open:
Release expectations of who or how the person will show up.
We had our next session two weeks later. She was so excited to tell me about the experience she had with her mom.
She was dedicated and persistent. The first time she tried to connect, she wasn’t able to, but she tried again. This time, to her surprise she was able to see and feel her mom.
She described her mom walking towards her with her arms open to give her a hug. She was warm and inviting now, much different from the guard she had up on earth.
My client described being able to share her feelings with her mom for the first time, and she felt heard and understood. She described a feeling of total love and acceptance from her mom. Her mom told her she was sorry for not showing her this earlier, and told her she is always her for her. She came out of the meditation covered in tears, of healing and release.
She described a feeling of being loved and supported for the first time ever after that connection. It was truly life changing for her.
She no longer has debilitating ringing in her ears. She heard the message, so her body could stop yelling at her so loudly about it!
Because she is a human, my client was able to carry this feeling of love and support for days, until she had another negative phone call with her family, and she was upset because she “lost” her feeling of connection with her mom.
This time, we talked about how to keep her vibration high so she can stay in connection with the loving support of her mom consistently.
She didn’t lose anything, her mom is always right there to carry her. With practice, this feeling will integrate more and more into her body over time.
We all have this ability to connect in order to receive messages of encouragement and support. I invite you to have fun in your communication with the other side!
