Out of the Fog Minute

Motion Detected: 8/6/19

In this Out of the Fog Minute, I share my musings on finding balance between receiving everything all the time ... or being so shut down we don't receive any intuitive or empathic information. 

When we're in balance, we don't have to choose between being all-on or all-off. We can choose to change our "settings" from a place of grounded, protected centeredness. 

You'll hear the coupon code for 20% off your private phone session with me, get a little teaser about the fall class schedule (check the classes page here), and have a chance to claim your seat in the August online gallery reading (Sat. 8/10) and/or the online Astro-Intuitive Gallery Reading with Dr. Michael Lennox (Sat. 9/21).

My prayer for you this week is that when you receive a little "ping" from Spirit, you take a moment to adjust your sensitivity so that you are connecting in balance. May you find yourself balanced, protected, and peaceful. 

With love,
Karen

Traveling Home: 6/25/19

I'm back home in Michigan! As I was leaving California, someone asked me if I was sad to be traveling home. But I think it's the best kind of travel, because I'm going between two places that I love. 

In this audio, you'll hear about the passing of my mom's longtime partner Lou. That made me think about the ways we create "home" in our own lives, and how our incarnational travel (birth and death) is also about going between two places where we give and receive love. 

You'll also find out about the next online gallery reading (Saturday 7/13), the latest session of the online psychic development intensive (starting 7/8), and the coupon code for 20% off a phone session. 

My prayer for you this week is that all your travel brings you home. May your heart hold safety, blessing, and the knowledge that you are loved. 

With love,
Karen

Heart of Abundance: 5/2/19

What if abundance wasn't really about what you have or aspire to ... but about what you are willing to give and what you can open yourself to receive?

In this audio musing, I'm thinking about how things change when we are open to giving from exactly where we are. Not from fear or from scarcity. Not to show off or to "get stuff". But giving from love, from the knowledge that there is always more. More to receive, and more to give. 

You'll also get the coupon code for 20% off your private intuitive session with me, hear the date for the May online gallery reading and ... (drum roll) hear a bit more about the new Heart of Abundance class. There are freebies waiting for you on the class page at http://karenhager.com/abundance. 

My prayer for you this week is that every connection, everything you give or receive, opens you more abundantly to Divine Love. 

With love,
Karen

Stuck! 4/3/19

Wow, did I get stuck. My desk is littered with file folders, post-it notes, to-do lists, great ideas (and some probably not-so-great ideas) to be explored … and I didn’t know what to do first, so I didn’t do anything.

 

A quote from spiritual teacher Mark Nepo helped snap me out of it.

 

“Do one thing at a time and do it entirely, and it will lead you to the next moment of love.”

 

When you’re feeling stuck, when it all feels like a gigantic chore, practice feeling into any place where you can be absolutely present. I suggest starting with being present in the breath. And that will lead you to the next moment of love, and slowly … breath by breath … lead you through the place of being stuck.

 

In this audio, you’ll get the discount code for 20% off your private session and hear about new freebies on the Heart of Abundance class page. I’d love your input about what you’d like to have covered in that class! Head over to http://karenhager.com/abundance and check it out.

 

My prayer for you this week is that you catch yourself being present … riding the breath … finding ease and grace … even if you are overwhelmed. Spirit is present with you in this moment, and in the next moment of love.

 

With love,
Karen

On Guard: 2/21/19

When both my sons came home early from work because they were feeling sick, I started to work myself into a tizzy. What if I was getting sick, too? In fact … oh, no … maybe I have a headache … and is that body ache?!?!?!?

 

As highly sensitive people, we can think and feel ourselves into all sorts of outcomes. You’ll hear more in this audio about allowing compassionate barriers to give yourself some distance from anxiety and stop those whirling thoughts.

 

You’ll also hear about the upcoming gallery readings (including the nearly-sold-out Tarot-Intuitive online gallery with Raven Mardirosian), and get your coupon code for 20% off a private session with me.

 

A free audio is waiting for you at http://karenhager.com/abundance. It’s a prayer to help open your heart and allow you to receive greater abundance in all areas of your life.

 

My prayer is that you allow yourself some space to breathe when you feel anxious or when you catch yourself projecting. Everything is clearer when you do.

 

With love,
Karen

Resistance: 1/20/19

A couple of weeks ago in physical therapy, I "graduated" from the red resistance bands to the green ones. I felt very proud of myself until I realized that this new level meant the exercises I'd been doing wonderfully well with the red bands were now much more difficult. What was once easy and a bit humdrum was more challenging because of the increased resistance.

I've found the same to be true on my spiritual journey. When there is awakening, when we grow, when intuition sparks, when we "graduate" to the next level ... we can expect to meet increased resistance. 

But with that added difficulty can come a deeper awareness of Divine presence and protection as we shift our focus to this new way of being.

In this audio, you'll also hear about the upcoming Meet Your Guides class on 1/30, and get the coupon code for 20% off your next private session with me. 

My prayer for you is that as you grow and change in the new year, and as you feel the resistance that will naturally occur, that you will also know the presence and protection and safety of Divine Love.

With love,
Karen

Blessing for the Longest Night: 12/20/18

Every year at this time, I share Jan Richardson's poem "Blessing for the Longest Night". It is a beautiful reminder that we are never far from Divine Love, never without connection to Spirit, no matter how dark or bright the path we're traveling might feel in this moment. 

You can read this poem online here: http://adventdoor.com/2011/12/19/winter-solstice-blessing-for-the-longest-night/. Find out more about Jan Richardson and her work at http://janrichardson.com.

I'm recovering beautifully from the not-scary knee surgery and will be back in the office after Christmas. The coupon code TOUCHSTONE always brings you 20% off the regular session fee. 

My prayer for you is that when blessings find you (and they are always finding you), that you open your heart to receive them. In this darkest time of the year, stop to consider and embrace the Light. 

With love,
Karen 

Gratitude, surgery, Light: 11/24/18

The idea behind Thanksgiving is easy. Be grateful ... and of course, eat pie. 

I've been thinking about how finding the Light ... the place where Spirit peeks through, where we realize our abundance and connect with gratitude ... is essential to our path even when things aren't going well (and/or when the pie is gone). 

In this audio, you'll hear me talk about my upcoming non-scary knee surgery on 12/6 (please send good vibes!), and hear about a special price on the downloadable Practical Protection for Empaths class that's good through the end of December. 

I'll be out of the office 12/6-12/17. And although I don't like having surgery or being away, I'm grateful for it just the same. 

My prayer for you is that you pause to look for the Light in every situation, no matter how welcome or unwelcome it may be. And in that looking, and finding, may you know that you are blessed. 

With love,

Karen

Not Perfect: 10/23/18

Spoiler alert: You are not perfect. Neither am I. 

In this audio, I share my thoughts on how Spirit works through us from exactly where we are on the path. Healing, intuition, growth, and life is happening whether we are perfect or not. And that's a good thing, because we are not here to be perfect. We are here to be fully alive. To learn and love, to lose and grow, to experience all we can of what it means to be Spirit in a physical body. 

The Tarot-Intuitive online gallery reading with Raven Mardirosian is on Saturday 11/3. And I made my first-ever downloadable class! Practical Protection for Empaths is now available on demand. 

My prayer for you this week is that you be fully present in this messy, imperfect, miraculous world we live in. Please don't wait to be perfect before you open up to your gifts. Let love and Light shine through you right now. 

Overwhelmed: 9/28/18

I'm an empath. Are you? 

An empath is especially sensitive to the thoughts, feelings, and energy of other people. Some empaths are also sensitive to the energy of places. 

Just turning on the TV or scrolling through Facebook (or even going to the grocery store) can be overwhelming for empaths who go through life with no filters or protection. 

And because we live in especially turbulent times, with so much division and bad behavior on display ... recognizing overwhelm and learning to set and re-set boundaries is of vital importance. 

In this audio, you'll get a quick tool for combatting overwhelm. You'll also hear about the new Practical Protection for Empaths class, get the code for your 20% session discount, and learn the date for the October online gallery reading. 

My prayer for you this week is that you return to the present moment every time you feel overwhelmed. Feel your feelings ... not anyone else's. And set compassionate energetic boundaries so that you can use your empathy as a gift to yourself and to the world. 

With love,
Karen
