		<description>Hi Andrea,
This is all very very new to me.  I happened on this blog through reading an article on Finer Minds.  Communicating with Spirit Guides seems like something far away.  I was brought up in a Christian home and learned to pray for myself.  I have added something to my prayers that have not been taught to me, that is, I will always ask God to send guardian angels around to guide and protect me daily even to guide me through my dreams and sleep.

Is this activating and connecting to my Spirit Guides?  I would love to hear more about this.  Where do I go to get more information on how to connect with them?  How many guides does one normally have working with them?

Thanks
Pat</description>

		<description>Hi Susan,

I have to tell you - if you feel like you keep banging your head against an invisible wall, it might be a good idea to have a look at clearing work.  I know you&#039;re a healer ... but we can&#039;t always do our own work.  If you&#039;re truly having trouble shifting your situation and are thoroughly stuck, it&#039;s often for good energetic reasons that CAN be resolved fairly easily.

Let me know if I can help within a session!

Blessings,
Andrea</description>

		<description>Hi Andrea,

Thank you for your swift response, I&#039;m very much appreciative. What&#039;s showing up is that I seem to be &quot;stuck&quot; not truly able to go forward not just with my career path, but my partner path also. I think &quot;fear&quot; is holding me back, my negative brain always &quot;fears&quot; too much of what might not happen, instead of what might happen.

My confidence is also at an all time low, which has been affecting my sleep patterns, eating patterns, health in general, have also been feeling rather tearful? The last two years has been trying to move my spiritual side (I&#039;m a healer) and my relationship forwards, but it&#039;s as though I just can&#039;t get past first base. Maybe, I need to make a firm decision that I may well be ignoring, and spirit has been trying to point this out to me.

Kindest Regards,

Susan.</description>

		<description>Hi Susan,

You might need a meditation practice to settle your mind down - sometimes our own busy thoughts and strong opinions get into the way of receiving guidance.

Also, you might want to look at what is manifesting itself in your life right now - often, Spirit speaks to us through our life circumstances.  What&#039;s showing up?  

Blessings,
Andrea</description>

		<description>Having read your article with great interest, I actually have a question, rather than a reply to other comments, and would be most grateful for any response.  For many years now, on and off I have been aware of &quot;spirit&quot; and at times have felt a deep connection to them, and have been very privileged to have witnessed some extraordinary events, however, at this particular time in my life, I feel as though I&#039;m in a fog, I can&#039;t get &quot;clarity&quot; and have felt very restless, can you give any tips on what I could do, how I could re-connect with some clarity, I know that spirit are trying to communicate, but I&#039;m just not receiving what I need.

Thanking You Kindly.

		<description>This is a most strange day.. My guides have been busy trying to get me to both yours and slades page..very strange experience that I will one day share with all but for the moment I will say thank you.Andrea if you can sense energy from a distance ..please take this light as a gift of my gratitude ..both from myself and all of my guides. Especially Eleena!

  Ancestors and gaurdians of the great dance of light
The incredible flow given many names .Force ,Chi, Neturu,the stuff that dreams are made of and yet, always you choose
The All of all . The whisper of truth found in the grandest waltz or the smallest grain of sand. Within the words we have used in all kingdoms of love and magic 
beyond the veil .be beyond the veil and enter the greatest kingdom of dreams. How? as a child does ..simply believe.</description>

		<description>Hi Michelle,

That&#039;s a great story!  We do from time to time have attaching spirits that inhabit our physical body ... interesting that this one felt he had a job to do, even if it meant causing you discomfort.

Thank you for sharing that experience!

Blessings,

		<description>Andrea,
I love that our guides work for us and we can be specific in what we need - and a timetable! .. and I agree not all spirits are &#039;helping&#039;  but I just had one think he was helping - and probably was, but I no longer wanted his help........
I recently had a &#039;spirit&#039; leave my shoulder during a meditation.  My shoulder had been in pain and I went inside to find out why.  When I asked why the spirit being was there, he said that he was protecting my heart.  I said thanks and asked him to leave - I no longer needed heart protection.   ...</description>

		<description>ImANicePerson - Glad you stopped by!  Sounds like you have a fast-paced team!  Yes, absolutely don&#039;t be afraid to set some limits if they are going too fast.  Nothing is ever lost.  Sometimes we worry that we might shut down our creative flow - we won&#039;t.  That&#039;s the benefit of &quot;time&quot; not existing on the spiritual plane - our Guides are always available to inspire us, and they can do it on our time if they have to.

Blessings,
Andrea</description>

		<description>Patricia - thank you so much for including the link to your article here.  I remember it was a really wonderful summary!  I look forward to having you on the call.

Louise - great question.  Yes, communicating with your Spirit Guides and using your intuition is pretty much the same thing.  My definition of intuition is &quot;communication with our resources on the spiritual plane,&quot; which includes our Higher Self as well as our Spirit Guides.  Sounds like you are already receiving a lot of great information!

Suzanne - I&#039;m thrilled you realized that OF COURSE you can do that! :-)  I would go off on my &quot;everyone is intuitive and psychic&quot; song and dance, but I&#039;ll restrain myself here ...

You are completely right - you can let your Guides know if they&#039;re going too fast, being not obvious enough, etc. .... and they absolutely love it when we say &quot;thank you.&quot;

Pat - The link to the Spirit Guide class with Slade is on my Classes page on my website - it&#039;s the third one down, I think!  I&#039;m so glad you enjoyed the class!

Blessings,
Andrea</description>

		<description>This is a great article.  I guess my spirit guides sent me here today :)

My spirit guides stay on the autobahn.  This is wonderful thing because &quot;they&quot; continue to lead me to creativity.   Learning to define limits as to action  is definitely the key. 

Thanks for sharing!</description>

		<description>Andrea - did you and Slade do a teleconference on &quot;Managing Your Spirit Guides&quot; and was it taped?  I looked for it in your site and signed up for your free report but did not see an audio for it.  If there&#039;s one and I&#039;m missing it, would you mind sending me the link?  I would love to listen to it.  Enjoyed your last teleclass on &quot;What You Don&#039;t Know Can Serve You&quot;.  You helped me a lot.  After you answered my question, I went to mute and got cut off and couldn&#039;t get back on.  Sorry, for the disturbance - guess it was still that negative energy.

Thank you for your support and sharing your wisdom.</description>
