Death is not the end. It’s a transition back to our true energetic selves. My book, “A Reluctant Spirit: A True Tale of God, Ghosts and a Skeptical Christian,” chronicles the amazing supernatural events that occurred during and after spending the night in the long-shuttered Goldfield Hotel in 2007. In just 12 hours, my views on the afterlife and spirituality upended, making me a believer in the paranormal and expanding my views of God. Visit kathleenberry.com for more details.

Revelations of Sacred Light and Holy Dark

Everything and everyone have a purpose in this earthly existence. We all play a part in the larger whole of Creation. And paying attention to sacred light and the holy dark is a way to nurture your ability to receive Divine Guidance. Sacred light, at its simplest, was God’s first act of Creation. It illuminates our souls, giving us purpose. Sacred light manifests itself differently in each of us.

Shift from a limiting self-view to an eternal, limitless one

We all experience times when we feel we have little control over our lives. Personal struggles, natural disasters, world events and more fuel our sense of doom. What helps best in these situations is to change our perspective from an earthly one to a spiritual one. By tapping into our heavenly home, we realize that our existence on earth is limited, yet precious.

If the spirit realm is so wonderful, why are we here?

Our earthly existence offers profound insight and growth The harshness of the material world contrasts our heavenly home's atmosphere of unconditional love. So why would we want to leave such a blissful existence? Because it’s in the physical where our actions and thoughts in the face of adversity (as well as the repercussions of those actions and thoughts) can exponentially:

Our sixth sense expands our spiritual and emotional well-being

“If psychics truly existed, why aren’t they rolling in money from the stock market?” I said this years ago, before I came to embrace the notion that we all possess a sixth sense. Obviously, I didn’t have a clue about how Divine Guidance works in our lives. Our intuitive gifts exist to feed our spiritual and emotional potentials, not to create lives of monetary ease.

Lose your limiting views to find who you are

Discover new personal depth when you discard others’ beliefs about you and release the false narratives you carry about yourself. Like most people, you probably built your thought world at an early age around others’ theologies and society’s pressure to fit in. When you adopt others’ beliefs and judgments and then internalize them, you prevent yourself from reaching your full potential.

Six steps to shift from a material to a spiritual mindset

From a young age, we find that life in the physical world is not always fun. We’d forgotten why we came here: growth, soul expansion and learning to love in an imperfect environment. This amnesia leads us to adopt material priorities such as competition, judging others and “looking out for number one.” The problem is this mindset starves our spiritual selves, leaving us empty and unfulfilled.

The surprising ways prayer works

At its most basic level, prayer is energy work. It’s a loving act with the intent to uplift others. In return, it elevates us as well. Praying creates a sacred energy that the Most Loving amplifies, giving it more power to support and love everyone on their journeys. When we welcome and internalize prayer’s energy, it shapes us forever. This loving energy never dissipates.

Old souls are no better than younger ones

I cringe when spiritual gurus proclaim they’re an old soul in a way that elevates themselves above everyone else. Old souls—those who’ve existed longer than most—have learned more, but it doesn’t make them better and doesn’t mean they know everything. If anything, their status requires them to give more of themselves to elevate others, humanity in general and all of Creation.
