Rumi’s Reflections: Alison Wem’s Journal – Day 7

My soul is from elsewhere, I’m sure of that,

and I intend to end up there.

Jalal al-Din Rumi

I talked with my soul for many years before I realised who it was.

Throughout a life threatening childhood illness, he was always there comforting and encouraging me. He held my hand through the dark of the night when I was in pain.

In adulthood I was grateful to realise who he is, my best friend and my soul. He is the spark of divinity within me and brings me calmness, harmony and wisdom. We will always be together and I will go wherever he does. White Cloud, my light in the darkness shinning the way. read more

Relaxation: the importance of taking a break

You may be experiencing the relentless pace of business or the rigours of running a family life or perhaps both!

Stress resides not in the mind but in the nervous system. Our ‘fight or flight’ response raises our cortisol level causing the sympathetic nervous system to activate. Our bodies are designed for a raised cortisol level but only in short bursts to aid our survival. However in our modern ‘always on the go’ life style, many people live with chronic raised cortisol levels leading to slow digestion, sleep disruption and other side effects. read more

Spiritual development: Dark Night of the Soul

Spiritual development is often a solitary journey. As a psychic medium, I just followed my intuition and let it guide me where I needed to go. However I didn’t always understand what was happening to me.

The Dark Night of the Soul can be particularly dramatic and it can help to understand what is happening to you. I cross referenced literature to try and gain an understanding including;

  • the teachings of the Tibetan channelled by Alice Bailey
  • William Meader’s Shine Forth plus his video lectures giving a simplified version of the Alice Bailey teachings,
  • Michael Newton’s Destiny of Souls
  • Various texts about Kundalini.

People seldom talk about their spiritual development. It is a personal journey with your soul and Spirit. I did wonder what other people were experiencing. I found a lovely writer Patricia Williams who speaks of her experiences and gives words of wisdom on managing your own Dark Night of the Soul. read more

Meet Alison Wem: Global Woman Club, Paris (zoom)

What an inspiring group of women are in the Global Woman Club. I went to meet them in London and found women who are passionate about their lives and what they do.

From all walks of life and nations, this group of women resonated with one another in being pro-active about their lives to make them what they want, rather than the circumstances they found themselves in. All have businesses which they are either their main career or they run alongside another career or family responsibilities.

Global Woman events are held each month across the globe to share wisdom and to support one another. read more
