Does your lifestyle influence the music you listen to, or does the music you listen to influence your lifestyle? The answer to both questions is - Yes! Music is a VERY powerful tool. It has the ability change our emotions in a matter of minutes and power to invoke us to ACT in accordance to its words. Have you ever found yourself looking for a sad song when you’re in a sad mood? Doesn’t it only bring you deeper into your emotions? We may feel better after that good cry, but you must understand during that time of RELEASE, we have RELEASED vibrations into the atmosphere. Please understand that when you’re already in a state of such a STRONG emotion, you put out such a powerful vibration that only brings back to you what you’re focusing on at THAT moment. Music accompanying that only makes that vibration more powerful because songs are VERY powerful mantric affirmations. This power becomes very easy for us to ignore - which makes it even more powerful. We will say “I just like the words, it resonates SO well with where I am RIGHT NOW”, or say “I just like what the song is about, I don’t really know all the lyrics”, or think “I don’t even listen to the words, I just like how it sounds.” My fellow siblings, have we forgotten that WORDS have POWER? And have we already forgotten that the thoughts and FEELINGS behind those WORDS hold even MORE power? And did we forget that the words that we pick up SUBLIMINALLY have even MORE POWER than the ones we consciously hear? The last thing you want to do when you’re in a state of sadness, or anger is to reinforce it by listening to music that resonates with that current emotion. Instead, CHANNEL those emotions into music that will UPLIFT your spirit and SPEAK to you about where you DESIRE to be. I’m not speaking to you today to tell you what kind of music to listen to, please use your DISCERNMENT to that regard. But be AWARE of what you feed your spirit because even if YOU’RE not listening, your SPIRIT is. Inspect the songs you listen to. Does it resonate with where you WANT to be or is it only reinforcing your current situation? Try making yourself a playlist of EMPOWERMENT today. - heidiewoods

I am so excited about this year and the theme which has been chosen.

What a genius idea – to have us all, wherever we are, working on carefully considered challenges as we reach higher and live higher.

I really am convinced that our participation together will have an incredible impact on us – beyond what we can now imagine.

When I learned about the theme for TOFW for this year, I started thinking of what I wanted to focus on.

I realized that I was pondering about it – thinking deeply.

So that’s what I ended up choosing as my challenge to myself and others: THINK ON PURPOSE! THINK MORE DEEPLY AND MORE OFTEN!

We don’t seem to ponder and meditate much in our busy lives. We may want to, and we may even yearn to . . . but it’s hard to make time and space in our full and overflowing days.

It’s my feeling that without these times of being STILL and LISTENING and FEELING, we’re missing something which has more potential to lift and bless us than we realize.

So how do we do it?

First, we have to want to do it – that’s been true for me as I’ve tried to practice what I plan to share. It is already making a difference in my life.

So think about your circumstances, and choose one of two ways to accept and apply this challenge.

If you can, make space in your life for 10-15 minutes a day to think deeply – to let your thoughts focus and expand on any topic you might choose.

If that’s too much for you in your current circumstances, choose one day each week where you spend 20-30 minutes in pondering, in meditating.

Can you find a place and a time where you can be alone in quiet contemplation?

Some might find they can focus and think higher while walking, while driving, in a closet (that’s scriptural!), while exercising, while holding a baby, and even while doing things like folding clothes or washing dishes.

Do some experimenting and find what works for YOU. Pray for help to find the right time and place.

So what do you think about? Whatever is on your mind.

You might have an experience similar to that which Enos had when his soul hungered. Has your soul ever hungered?

Do you ever feel HUNGRY for a more meaningful relationship with your Heavenly Father, the Savior, the Holy Ghost – and for a deeper connection to those closest to you – your family, friends, neighbors?

Maybe you’ll find a need to carefully consider your to-do list (and your to-be list!), receiving inspiration about which are the most important things in your life right now. Can you shorten your list?

One of the blessings of thinking deeply is that we tend to have more time for listening than we do in our personal prayers. There are increased opportunities to ASK, to SEEK, to KNOCK.

You may ask Heavenly Father something like “Is there anything I’m doing that isn’t right for me?” And then let Him respond.

Or you may ask something like “Is there anything I need to be doing that I’m not doing yet?” And, again, let Him respond.

One thing I highly recommend is that you write down some of your impressions. This can help you when you have your next chance for pondering – if you want, you can pick up where you left off last time.

Writing things down helps us REMEMBER. Our notes can remind us of Heavenly Father’s goodness and generosity towards us.

Maybe you’ll be prompted to think about the Sacrament. What a sweet specific opportunity each week for introspection and worship!

Can you imagine the ideas which may come to your mind if you were to ponder what it means to love the Lord thy God with ALL THY HEART, with ALL THY MIND, and with ALL THY SOUL?

Wow!

Pondering and meditating probably won’t remove all your burdens and challenges, but I’m thinking it will shed light on aspects of your life in a new way, a different way – perhaps with more discernment, a different perspective, a deeper understanding.

I’m asking that you change your mind and thus change your heart (because what’s on your mind is in your heart). Enjoy thinking!! I’ll be watching for your comments, your ideas, and for what you’d like to share about your experiences.

Thanks for joining us!!

These natural extensions are claimed to be clairvoyance (vision), clairsentience (feeling), claircognisance (factual knowing) and clairaudience (hearing) and the resulting statements made during such an attempt. The term is commonly associated with paranormal-based consultation given. for a fee in such settings as over the phone, in a home, or at psychic fairsThough psychic readings are controversial and a focus of skeptical inquiry a popular interest in them persists. Extensive experimentation to replicate psychic results in laboratory conditions have failed to find any precognitive phenomena in humans. A cold reading technique allows psychics to produce seemingly specific information about an individual from social cues and broad statements

Types Of Psychic reading

There are many types of psychic readings practiced. Although psychic readings might not incorporate the use of any tools, a professional psychic may have one or more specialized areas of expertise. Some of the more common readings include Tarot reading, email psychic reading, palm reading, psychometry, aura readings, or astrological readings.

Astrology

Astrology is the study of the movements and relative positions of celestial objects as a means for divining information about human affairs and terrestrial events. The position of the stars, planets, sun and moon when one is born are believed to affect one's personality, shape how relationships work in one's life and predict future events such as one's economic success.

Aura reading

Aura readings involve the observation and interpretation of auras. The aura is purported to be a field of subtle, luminous radiation surrounding a person. Psychics have offered aura readings for many years. They claim to have a unique ability to see or sense individual's auras, however no evidence has ever been provided to substantiate this claim.

Cartomancy or playing card reading

Cartomancy is fortune-telling or divination using a deck of cards. See also Tarot reading below.

Cleromancy

Cleromantic readings usually involve casting small objects and reading them by their position, orientation, and mutual proximity. There are numerous variants used throughout the world.

Distant readings

A distant reading, "traveling clairvoyance", or "remote perception" can be conducted without the reader ever meeting the client. This includes letters, telephone, text messaging, email, chat, and webcam readings.

Correspondence readings are usually done via letters, later emails and filling in special forms on psychic websites

Telephone readings are live readings where both psychic and client hear each other by connecting via premium rate telephone line. In the last years, with restrictions on premium rate numbers, more common are pre-paid callbacks, in which case client leaves his/her credit card details over the phone to an operator, after which gets a call on a specified phone number. Telephone readings became most popular with the growth of live advice TV shows as main means of advertising, and is commonly used by companies rather than individual psychics, due to high setup costs.

SMS and chat readings is a quick question-and-answer format of reading allowing exchange of basic information between psychic and client.

Webcams and online video communication may also be used for this type of reading.

Lithomancy and crystallomancy

Lithomancy readings usually involve especially suitable gems or stones that are immersed in water, or tossed as a set and read by mutual proximity. Its origins are unknown, and there are numerous different methodologies used by various cultures throughout the world. A recently more common variant is crystallomancy also known as crystal gazing. Using quartz as a crystal ball it is stereotypically depicted as Romani fortune telling.

Numerology

Numerology is defined as the study of the occult meanings of numbers and their influence on human life. It is essentially a reading of an individual based specifically upon numerical values such as their date of birth, letters in their names, etc. Numerology can be used in psychic readings.

Palm reading

Palmistry is another popular method of psychic readings, involving characterization and foretelling of one's future through the study of the lines, shapes, wrinkles and curves on the palm. Palmistry does not require psychic ability, as it generally uses cold reading abilities and previous knowledge of the subject.

Psychometry

Psychometry is a form of psychic reading in which the reader claims to obtain details about another through physical contact with their possessions Psychometry readers often ask the subject for their favorite and most meaningful objects, such as wedding rings, glasses, car keys, etc., for the reading. The belief is that objects which are in close proximity to a person for extended periods of time hold some of that person's 'energy'. This method has been used in attempts to locate missing persons

Rune reading

Runes are the letters of a set of related alphabets used to write various Germanic languages before the adoption of the Latin alphabet. There is evidence to suggest that they also had magical or divinatory uses. In modern settings, stones or tablets with runes inscribed on them are cast on a mat or cloth to discern future events or path a problem or issue will takeRunes are also used by some witches and other practitioners of divination

Tarot reading

Tarot cards have been greatly popularized, but can be often regarded solely as entertainment. Traditional decks are available in chain bookstores. New decks also frequently appear in New Age bookstores. Though not requiring psychic abilities, Tarot cards can be used as a psychic or cold reading tool and Tarot readings are common at psychic fairs

Skeptics have challenged the veracity of the claims of psychic readings, largely through disclosure of the methods. Psychologist Richard Wiseman's 2011 book Paranormality: Why We See What Isn't There noted the tricks of the trade, and Wiseman noted in a podcast appearance that the disclosure generated negative feedback from the psychic community

Why do you spend money for what is not bread, and your wages for what does not satisfy? In His invitation, God asks His people to ask themselves - “Why do I spend money for what can’t satisfy?” This is a remarkably relevant question, in light of all the things we can pour our time and money and effort into - things which will never satisfy they way the LORD can satisfy.

Listen diligently to Me, and eat what is good, and let your soul delight itself in abundance: The invitation is clear. The offer is made, the provision is made, and everything is available - but we must still do some things.

First, we must listen diligently. The satisfaction God promises doesn’t come to those who don’t listen, and listen diligently. It takes time, attention, and effort to listen diligently, and some aren’t willing do this.

Second, we must eat what is good. This requires some discernment. We must choose what is good, and then eat that. Many just simply eat whatever spiritual meal is set before them, without taking care to see that it is good.

Third, we must let your soul delight itself in abundance. Even when we listen, even when we eat what is good, we still must let our soul delight itself in abundance. You can sit down at a great spiritual meal, but by your stubborn or bad attitude, simply not let your soul delight itself in abundance.
