SPIRIT FAMILIES

Recently, I have been receiving numerous inquiries about Spirit Families. I am heartened that so many have shown an interest because a Spirit Family can truly be one of the many ways to help you on your spiritual path.

I have begun writing a book about Spirit Familes and the different types of Spirit Families.

I'll keep you posted as to how these writings are coming along.

I have my own Spirit Family that meets once a week and I asked them if they could write something for me to share with others that would help them to know what a Spirit Family means to them. Here is what one person has shared about her experience:

"Being part of the spirit group with Lory is something I almost can't put words too. What does it mean to interact with people in this way?...well, it's liberating.

This is a safe zone where discussion about what some might consider implausible happenings and experiences is uncensored and embraced. No one doubts the validity of what happens in these individuals lives aand the sharing of these experiences enriches all who participate. Intriguingly, though no discussions are necessarily planned, "the spirit' moves through and in us in such a way, that often times much of what each individual comes to discuss ends up connecting directly with what another has said or will say. Without subcribing to a particular faith, we bless each other by participating. In a quietly profound way, you come to realize that your perspective on life is changing by being a part of this kind of group.

To say more, might limit the individual impact and experience. So I will leave it at that."
