Preparing for a Session with Michele

It is vitally important to come to a session in the right frame of mind and without too many expectations about what will occur. Through hundreds of communications with souls on the other side Michele has learned that neither she, nor the client is in control over what information (or even who) comes through. Since the information is distinctly in the control of the souls who choose to communicate, it is important that clients approach a session with an open mind. Souls have several reasons to communicate with those of us still in the physical world. Some merely want to let a loved one know that they are well and very much alive. Others want to heal a conflict or something that is incomplete for them. Some want to assist us in working through life issues—though in Michele’s experience Souls never interfere with our life lessons. Still others just want to say “hi”.

It is also important to remember that all Souls have the same ability to communicate. Regardless the soul has been in the hereafter one day or 10 years they communicate in the same way. There is much joy in the non-physical realms when communication is opened and something can come through. Michele literally sees souls jumping for joy at being able to make even the simplest communications. 

Every session can produce amazing messages, insights, healings and other communications. However, when a client has a deep expectation or desire for a particular answer to a question, or for some specific communication to be made, it can often interfere because the client is waiting for that one thing as opposed to receiving the messages that do come through. Imagine if you bought a bouquet of flowers for someone you loved and they responded by saying “oh, thanks, that’s nice but I really wanted chocolate.” You would miss out of the beauty of the flowers because you didn’t get chocolate. They bring the gifts and the issues they can and want to express and their deepest hope is that those who are there to receive it will do so with joy and excitement.

Michele has learned that souls who have passed into the non-physical realms have a broad perspective about life and the meanings and issues of their own and other’s lives. However, they are not all-knowing or suddenly omniscient just because they have passed. If a person wasn’t particularly soft and gushy in the physical world, they may not be that way in the non-physical. They retain quite a bit of their “old” personality, though with a new and broader perspective. Most also retain their sense of humor and often prefer to communicate in a light-hearted way. That doesn’t mean that souls will not deal with issues of conflict or disappointment. They want to heal and want those of us still here to heal. However, it is important to realize they may want to get to the heart of deep issues as soon as a connection is made because healing and resolving issues is the number one most important thing to the souls who communicate.  

Again, the key to an amazing session is to come with as few expectations as possible. You may not even immediately receive communication from the particular loved one with whom you want to speak. They usually will come through, but at times others come through first. Again, the souls know who you need to hear from first. Before a session Michele recommends the following preparation:

1. Take some quiet time to get a mental image of the person or persons with whom you hope to connect and send them your intention to communicate but trust me they already know. In fact it was probably them who gave you the idea.

    Even if you are skeptical, please at least try this for a moment or two.

2. Think of the person or persons and remember images, places, smells and other things that remind you of that person. You can try to just empty your mind and receive whatever images come through, or you can mentally focus on some.

3. Do your best to release any expectation about a specific thing you want to hear from someone who has passed. Imagine or enjoy having that communication then release it to Spirit or the Universe and let yourself relax into a space of

    “not-knowing” what will come through.

4. Know (or if you can “believe”) that your loved one has heard your intention and knows your desire. 

5. Remember that your loved one may have other things to tell or show you and create a space of acceptance and excitement to receive what they choose to share. A good metaphor to use is to think of your loved one’s communication

    as a Christmas present. While it is wrapped you have a hope over what may be inside, but when you open it there is always something special picked out just for you.

If you can take the preceding actions before your session you will find that your mind and spirit are in a space of gratefulness and anticipation, but not overly attached to a specific result. Then, let whatever comes through amaze and fulfill you in the knowledge that someone you love is still very much alive and as close as can be.
