mannabliss Medicine for the Soul November 2016 | Page 19

One thing that my mother’s higher self said “all of these fucking people asking me how I feel, how do you think I feel, I’m dying” Which was powerful to hear. I felt tears streaming down my cheeks, I wasn’t sobbing but it was an extreme consistent release for me. Another message from my mom that night was “distract me, don’t talk to me about my deteriorating body, don’t talk about my illness or how I feel. Read to me, watch movies with me, talk to me about anything that doesn’t remind me of my physical body.”

This was very powerful for me, because that was all I did. She was my patient, I was taking her to her doctor’s appointments, checking in with her in the morning, fixing her food (which she never liked and barely ate) Those words shifted our relationship in those last months of her life. I stopped trying to fix her and found joy in just being with her. It was profoundly healing for me and our soul’s connection to each other. It was the catalyst to help heal the karmas that we needed to in this lifetime together.

Once Jennifer was done with the reading, she took time to process the message with each person. In the moment, there is a lot to hear and lot of emotions to take in.

She wants to make sure that the person who is asking for clarity gets what they are looking for and to see if message(s) resonated with them. Exhale.

For the rest of the night, my eyes were closed and I held space for the other 20 people there. I heard about relationships, estranged, passed on, spirit guides, higerr selves, siblings, parents, children. And as I listened to different people’s experiences, I realized they were similar to mine. Although I wasn’t the one asking for the guidance in that moment, I heard messages of relationship to that rang true to my own experiences, not just with my mom but other people in my life and over my lifetime. It highlighted for me the universal truth that we are all one.

That we are all on this planet facing some type of suffering. No one is escaping it. All of the suffering is here to help us learn lessons for our soul’s evolution. I also got a glimpse of what the afterlife could be. It was an extremely exhilarating experience. I remember going home that night and lying in bed and feeling every cell in my body vibrating.

Since this Soul Connection at the Red Tent, I have sat with Jennifer about 10 more times (give or take) and each time the message helps to fill my soul up and give me what I need to continue on my journey and complete my dharma in this life. I honor what she does. I honor the skill she has developed and her willingness to help others with this gift.

"All of the suffering is here to help us learn lessons for our soul’s evolution. I also got a glimpse of what the afterlife could be."
