in how we treat ourselves—rather than from external validation. When we have no way to heal the beliefs that limit us and cut us off from our Divine guidance, the peace and joy of life elude us. It’s these false beliefs that then fuel our self-rejecting and self-abandoning behaviors, which are the underlying causes of our suffering. I know from personal experience what it’s like to live disconnected from myself and my spiritual guidance, as well as what it’s like to live with it. For me, this has been the difference between suffering and joy. There is no one “right” form of Divine guidance. We have many names for our spiritual source of love and wisdom: God, Goddess, Spirit, higher power, the Lord, beloved, Jehovah, Yahweh, Holy Spirit, nature, the light, the source, universal intelligence, universal life force, the all, the creator, Jesus, Buddha, Allah, guardian angel, and inner or outer wise-self or higher- self. So use the words that work for you and connect through a form that resonates. A High “Frequency” Is Essential for At-Will Divine Connection Divine connection has to do with “frequency,” and it was with Erika’s help that I discovered how to attain the frequency I needed for at-will Divine connection. I had discovered through reading, taking courses, and meeting some people who were key to my spiritual search that I needed to develop a high frequency—a high level of vibrancy— to connect to Spirit. However, until I met Erika, I had no idea what it meant to have a high frequency or how to achieve this in an ongoing way. 51
