Spiritual guides, our guides in life, do remind us always of ourselves. They support us at different times and areas in life and remind us the way we have to choose to our highest benefits. Expressions such as “I followed an inner voice”, I don’t know how but it was like I was being directed”, “as if someone said this is the right way” are signs of communication with our guides.

Mostly spiritual guides have had human experiences and as our teachers they support us at spiritual level. Occasionally they may appear in human bodies.

Sometimes we may receive messages from our guides through a friend, an acquaintance, even a stranger or an unexpected person.
Their aim is to guide us on our way of development and remind us the way should we get lost. It is easy to recognize them because they only convey messages with love and support. They remind us without judging the way mostly by holding a mirror in front of us and showing us our “the best” sides.

Everyone has got spiritual guides, but most people are not aware of them, especially those who are not interested in spiritual issues. Even people with interest in spirituality might not be in touch with their spiritual guides. They might think “I know myself, I am sufficient with myself, I don’t need anyone else.”
 
While having human experiences we may have difficult times in life and struggle to choose the right way by questioning ourselves like “What is my part of that? Where did I make a mistake? Did I leave out something? Is there anything I might not see?” Finding the answers to all these questions might be impossible when we are intricate and lost within a problem.

We perceive the messages from our guides better with an increased awareness in that moment and day. The best way to communicate with our guides is through meditation. And accumulated thoughts from the past do separate us from the presence of now.

Mostly we use our mind within life. And accumulated thoughts from yesterday do separate us from the “Now”. Meditation makes us receivable to the messages of our guides. We purify our mind and focus on our body through right breathing.

At turning points in lifetime and by making important decisions we might need their help. Sometimes they calm us down, but in the majority of cases they remind us of their existence by conveying love.
We need the help of our guides particularly at hard times while we try to find a way out. We are very complex and authentic beings. Our guides see us from a wider perspective and know all our past lives and as a result they perceive us from a deeper level. Therefore we might not be able to comprehend always the core of the situation we are involved.

We perceive the human existence from the perspective we condition ourselves. And sometimes we might dislike the fact when our guide holds a mirror in front of us.  However, only the truth can transform us.

If we could be more aware of our guides, we might comprehend the use of their fabulous support and directory. We owe our guides gratitude.

The messages coming from the guides in a regression session are important to all of us:

“It is not enough to be happy within, it is important not to hurt others.”
“We cannot get strong, if we don’t know our weak sides”
“Be strong, get emotional stronger”
“Instead of grieving about the incidents, learn to live, because your most important mission in life is to learn how to live. You have to go beyond the word “living”. As you pass away and go to spiritual realm this experience is going to give you what you need over there”.

Love and gratitude,
