Pondering the Body
Have you ever thought about how much time, energy and money you spend on your body?
If you look at our human existence, it’s amazing to see how much of life revolves around taking care of the body in various ways. Look at the list below and add up how much it actually costs to have a body. You thought owning a BMW was expensive!
The body is our personal vehicle and sensory organism, which allows us to experience life here on Earth.
- We have to feed it
- Give it 8 hours or more of rest each day (like recharging your cell phone batteries)
- Keep it in a comfortable temperature zone (not too hot, not too cold)
- Wash it regularly (hopefully that’s important to you)
- Clothe it (and have a sufficient wardrobe)
- Transport it using other bigger vehicles (cars, planes, buses, etc.)
- Give it regular exercise (like walking your dog)
- When it gets sick, take it to the mechanic (doctor) to find out what’s wrong with it
- Put sunscreen and lotions on it to protect it from the sun, bugs, aging, etc.
- Find a sexual partner to satisfy it’s drive to procreate and make more bodies
- Have a job or some way of earning money to pay for all of this stuff!
- What else? Please post comments of things I’ve missed on this list
It’s pretty interesting to look at. Of course, having a body is the ticket into this world, this 3D physical reality experience. If we didn’t have a body, we’d be in spiritual form. That’s what we return to when the body dies. Life goes on, you just no longer have a body. That’s why ghosts don’t have wallets.
I’m thrilled to have a body, no matter what the cost. It is the most extraordinary piece of equipment any of us will probably ever get to experience (never say ever). I’m sure there are spirits lined up, just waiting for their chance to get another body and experience all the physical sensations of this ride.
Remember that the next time you are feeling down because something about your body isn’t quite the way you want it. Think about how lucky you are to have that body right now! Puts a whole different spin on things when you look at it that way.
Video Clips of Gary Renard
I came across this person today on an internet radio broadcast at Spiritual Rockstar Radio.
That led me to Amazon to check out his books, and then to Youtube to hear him speak on the topics he often discusses. Pretty interesting, definitely in sync with the path I’m on in my own life. I look forward to exploring some other videos of his. He is a teacher/student of A Course in Miracles, which is something I’ve heard a lot about but never actually studied firsthand.

5 Reasons Desired Results Don’t Always Show Up Right Away
I recently had a session with my intuitive guide, Alice Brewer. And we were discussing a couple case studies where it’s been more challenging than usual to get the outcome we are looking for with clients.
Alice was shown (by spirit) the 5 biggest causes for outcomes to not appear they way we’d like them to, even after doing very effective work on the issue.
1. The client “wants” the outcome too much. – This can make it very difficult to get it to show up. The solution is to “Let go and let God.” Or, realize what feeling state you are wanting to experience as a result of having this outcome, and learn how to easily “dial” that in now. Then you won’t feel like you need or want the outcome so much since you already have the feeling state, which is what you most want anyway. The less you need or want something to show up, the easier it is to get it to appear. That is practicing the “law of detachment.”
2. There are layers involved. – I’ve hit this on many occasions and we just work through the layers until the outcome shows up. Sometimes there can be almost no movement on the issue after a few sessions as we work deeper and deeper into it, then all of a sudden, it just shifts.
3. The client backslides. – Growth is not a linear progression. Backsliding will sometimes occur, and that’s ok. It’s part of the learning curve. If you fall off the horse, just get back on the horse and start riding again. Eventually, you will stop falling off.
4. It’s part of the Human Condition. – Especially as relates to physical issues, sometimes the physical manifestation of the issue is just part of the normal process of the body. The picture Alice got on this one was of a monk who was ill. Despite the monk’s advanced state of consciousness and connection to divine energy, his body still was going through some process of decay or deterioration. I tend to still believe a lot can be shifted around this area, I’m very reluctant to accept that the body HAS to age and decay, at least not at the rate that people tend to believe. But, to some degree, we are all subject to the laws of this physical plane “where moth and rust consume.”
5. It is not in the client’s highest and best good to have this outcome at this time (or perhaps ever). – Often there is a lesson involved and until the lesson has been learned, the issue will not change. If we are primarily here to grow and learn (which is my belief based on quite a lot of evidence to suggest that is true), then our “thorny” circumstances and bodily issues are the teachers. The quicker we “get it” and move through whatever we need to learn and integrate, the quicker we can be done with the issue. And, sometimes, the thing we need to learn is how to transcend the issue, to be happy and fulfilled even if it doesn’t change.

The Speed Demon
I’ve been thinking lately it would be useful to share some of the shifts that occur with clients, with their permission of course. So, here is a very recent one. Many more to come… I’ve got tons of these but just need to write them up.
I worked with a gentleman recently who mentioned he had a strong urge to drive fast, even when he wasn’t in a hurry. He said he’d had this most of his life and it had caused him to get several speeding tickets and warnings over the years. He also said he often felt impatient at red lights or anytime he was delayed while driving.
We focused on clearing “stuck energy patterns” and cleared about three of these. There was an entity type attachment (very common to find these) that made me think of the term “speed demon,” which was causing most of this urge within him. It had a very impatient angry frequency to it.
He reported the following week that he had noticed a definite shift in his driving. No longer felt the need to be passing everyone (unlike before), felt comfortable driving in the right lane of highway (unlike before), and generally felt more relaxed and patient overall while driving.
Here is his experience in his own words:
“One of the things I battled on a day to day basis was my driving. You see, I enjoy driving fast. Not just 60 in a 55 but 80 or above. I hated to be passed. I was always in the left lane doing the passing. I was also always very aware of traffic, and actually considered myself a safe driver, but at 80 or 90 on the interstate how safe can you be?
Well, after just one session with Paul I can now drive the legal limit. I don’t grind my teeth when someone passes me. The need to be in the left hand lane and ‘in the lead’ is gone. Not only on the interstate, but in city or highway driving as well. It doesn’t make me crazy anymore to be behind the proverbial “little old lady” or farmer who is driving at or below the speed limit.
My driving skills are as good as ever, but now much safer because I drive the limit. I am no longer always in a hurry just for the sake of getting there two minutes sooner. Everyone around me on the road and in my car is safer. I have Paul to thank for this because, try as I may, I have never been able to accomplish this in the 40 years that I have been driving.
Thank you Paul for the lives you may have saved by breaking me of this decades-old habit.” — Robert A. Dickinson
Something that I find very interesting as I read this is, at no point did I actually work directly with Bob on breaking his habit of speeding. All I did was remove a few stuck energy patterns that were somehow related to the compulsion or desire to go fast. I used self-muscle testing to locate these patterns. I wouldn’t have had a clue where to find them without the muscle testing tool. Bob had a deeper desire to drive safe, but the patterns within him wanted nothing to do with that! Once that patterns were removed, he was “back in the driver’s seat” and able to drive at the speed that he most wanted to be at. It’s a great illustration of how these patterns can affect a person… And how easily a habit or behavior can change once the patterns have been removed.
Changing the Blueprint
A friend who I met through The Consciousness Playground recently shared some experiences and results she’s had using TAT which stands for “Tapas Acupressure Technique.”
I watched a couple of the videos on the site and it looks like something I’d like to explore and potentially work with. I like to add new tools to my coaching toolbelt as I come across them — provided they are effective and can get great results.
What strikes me about a lot of the tools I use is how light and easy the process of change can be when you are working in the 5th dimension (spiritual) or higher dimensions. We live in this physical 3rd dimension which is so dense we have the appearance of solid objects and a physical reality. But higher dimensions are much lighter, less dense and easier to work with.
The 4th dimension is where thought and emotion appear. Notice how much easier it is to “think” new realities as compared to experiencing them in your 3rd dimensional reality. As one of my teachers, Andrea Hess likes to say, “Just notice how much easier it is to think about and plan making a 3 course dinner as compared to actually making it.” The time, energy and effort is much less when just thinking and planning (4th dimension) as compared to doing the actual work which occurs in the 3rd dimension.
When it comes to making changes to your life circumstances or to yourself, this becomes a very useful concept to work with. What are we really? We are energy and information disguised as physical form. The physical form is the reflection of the energy and information. The energy and information is the blueprint for the physical form.
The really cool part of this is that it’s extremely easy to change the energy and information. We’ve seen how that can be done using these various energy modalities. I’m often amazed at how easy it is to shift things on that level simply by identifying them and requesting or commanding them to change. Totally quantum physics in action!
When we try to change ourselves on the 3rd dimension level, it is difficult. But, that’s because we are trying to change the reflection instead of changing the blueprint of the reflection.
I love this analogy — if you were looking in the mirror and you saw you had a smudge of dirt on your face, would you wipe off the smudge by rubbing it off the mirror or would you wipe it off your face? So often we try to change the reflection (our physical aspect) yet the source of the reflection (root cause) has not changed and so nothing really changes.
But when you can get to the source (root cause) at the energy/information level and make changes there, then the reflection shifts because it has to. How can a reflection be out of alignment with what it is reflecting? It can’t, at least not for very long.
This TAT process looks very easy, and that seems to be the direction we are evolving, finding easier and easier ways to change the energy and information, which allows us to change just about any aspect we want to in our physical reality.
We live in very exciting times!
Accessing Wisdom Versus Just Information
I had a chance to listen to Andrea Hess talk about her upcoming 5 week teleclass titled “Channeling Your Truth” and she covered some really great insights in the call.
Below is about 10 minutes of the call so you can get a taste of it. If you’d like to hear the whole recording, please go to this page to get free access to the full recording. For more details on the teleclass go to Channel Your Truth – Info
A special price offer for enrollment in the teleclass expires on Friday, so if this resonates you might want to act quickly. I’m considering taking this class myself. It seems to be in alignment with where things are headed for me lately.
On Gratitude and Walking Your Path
I’ve been meeting with Alice (my spiritual conduit and interpreter) on a weekly basis for the past month, getting some wonderful guidance and interaction from my own spiritual guides and loved ones who’ve crossed over and who are working on my behalf to help me manifest things here on the physical plane. It’s so exciting to learn about what is happening “on the other side of the curtain,” I love these conversations!
Here is an excerpt from our session last week. You’ll hear my wife speaking as well (she attends these sessions too). Some of the questions and subjects covered include:
- Do I need to keep focusing on my desires even after they have begun showing up?
- The role of gratitude in the manifestation process.
- Do we need a strong desire in order to have things show up?
- What can I do to be more fully on my path in this lifetime?
- What does it mean to be on my path?
- The importance of taking time to play.
- The importance of focusing on the feeling of whatever you desire.

Recent Radio Interview
Back in early May, I was interviewed by Dan Hanneman with Spiritual Rockstar Radio and the topic was “Breaking Free from the Emotional Prison.” This conversation covered a lot of territory including the planetary shift in consciousness, the scale of emotions and some description of how I work with clients.
Removing Energetic Attachments – Examples
I’ve been thinking for awhile now that I wanted to post some recordings of examples showing what it’s like to remove an energetic attachment. So, yesterday, Alice and I were working with a client and we had the opportunity to remove three separate energies and I realized those examples would be good to use.
Here is Example 1, in which you’ll hear Alice describing what the attachment looks like (this one was an object) and the process of it being removed by guides and angels on the spiritual level.
In Example 2, we have an object and an entity present with some very interesting details involved. Both of these examples are pretty typical of what this process is like. The details are always a little different and there are varying degrees of negativity around the energies, but overall the process tends to go like this most of the time.
Here are the steps of the removal process. You’ll hear most of these as you listen to the recordings. FYI – The recordings were edited a bit to cut out unnecessary dialogue and the client gave me permission to post these on my blog.
1. Identify that there is an energetic attachment present. Often we are looking around a very specific context or issue that the client is dealing with.
2. Locate precisely where the attachment is located in the client’s body or aura.
3. When Alice is present, we get some details about what the attachment looks like and it’s apparent purpose of emotional frequency. These energies are typically negative, and can be pulling the client into various negative emotional states like anger, frustration, sadness, bitterness, worry, guilt, unworthiness, etc.
4. Ask for the optimal guides and/or angels to step forward and remove the energy. The request has to be made. Nothing happens until we ask.
5. Verify when the process is complete. Often there is some healing work done on the spiritual level after the energy has been removed. The whole process takes anywhere from 5 to 20 minutes in my experience.

Energetic Attachments – A Basic Understanding
My good friend, Alice Brewer gave a talk this week at the Center for Spiritual Growth in South Bend, Indiana. The topic was “What’s Gotten Into You (An Expanded View of Reality)” and it was about the concept of energetic attachments.
This is something that Alice and I have worked with a lot over the past 16 months. Alice often sits in on my coaching sessions and shares her gifts with my clients. By gifts, I mean her ability to see, hear and interact with the non-physical (or spiritual) realm of reality. She has some extraordinary abilities, and together we’ve had some profound experiences with helping clients to shift very big issues in their lives.
I wanted to post something that was useful, brief and to the point around this energy attachment subject. This is how I see things based on my own personal experience in this field. The conclusions I’ve come to have been confirmed and echoed in a few books I’ve read on this subject (however, I read the books AFTER having most of the experiences that led me to the conclusions).

For those who are very new to this subject, some of this may sound pretty far out. However, I am 100% convinced that this phenomenon is real and something that each one of us deals with in life here on planet earth (whether we are aware of it or not). I feel an understanding of what is going on “behind the scenes” and what you can do about it is very helpful.
1. Energy attachments can be thought of as a range (or spectrum) of types of energetic patterns that can become attached to a person’s energetic field or aura. The spectrum includes earthbound spirit attachments on one end down to small fragments of energy that are barely detectable on the other end. Attachments are like energetic parasites. The effect on a person caused by an attachment can be hugely significant to totally insignificant. It is the situations where the effect is significant that I am most interested in removing attachments.
2. Basically, we are talking about energy that just doesn’t belong in you. It’s not energy that you created in your life experience. It’s energy that somehow got attached to you during your life. Usually there is some resonance point of attraction that draws it to you. For example: If you struggled with depression at some point in your life, you could attract attachments that resonate with low vibration depressed emotions. Energetically, “like attracts like” so a negative feeling state that you are stuck in can open the door for negative energetic attachments to be drawn to you. Once an attachment has “moved in,” it can pull you into specific feeling states or thought patterns when it is activated or triggered. So, a negative attachment associated with depression could cause you to drop into depression when you would normally be feeling good (if there were no attachment present). Attachments can influence your thinking and the way you feel.
3. Energy attachments are part of the human condition and they are extremely common. I believe everyone has energetic attachments, so you might as well get over the fear that you may have one (if that fear is present). The question is, “Are they affecting you in a negative way?” We live in a very polluted energetic environment here on planet earth. It’s pretty impossible to not pick up things here and there as you live your life. It’s like walking through a wild field. When you get to the other side you’re going to have some of those little prickly things stuck to your clothes.
4. The upside of this subject is that I’ve found that by removing energetic attachments that ARE causing some detrimental effect, a person can experience very immediate and positive shifts in their life. The most dramatic and immediate changes I’ve ever witnessed in all of my coaching years have been the result of removing energy attachments that were exerting a significant influence or “pull” on the client. Once the attachment is gone, the client often feels very differently and that is usually a permanent shift. An example: We worked with a young man who had panic attacks whenever he had to travel. This condition had been present for several years and it was getting worse as more time went by. It was interfering significantly with his work and personal life. Alice and I spent a couple hours with him during which we removed four attachments and worked through a past life issue that was related. After that one session, his panic attacks completely disappeared and they have never returned. He recently went on a trip to Mexico and reported that he felt no significant feelings of panic or concern before or during the trip.
5. So, if you have some issue in your life that isn’t resolving the way you want it to, this is a place to look to see if there is something pulling you in an unwanted direction. It has become the first thing I check when working with any client on any issue. If there is some energy attachment involved in the issue, we want to get that out of the way before we doing anything else. Then we can deal with whatever causes are present within the client’s own energy, or their own thought patterns. My overall coaching results have improved significantly since I started checking for and removing energy attachments. I find issues can shift much more easily and quickly. And, by the way, I always make sure it is optimal to remove the attachment before removing it (determined through muscle testing). Rarely do I find that it is not optimal for the client to have it be taken away.
6. Most of the time, it is very easy to remove attachments, but they have to be detected and their location identified in order for them to be removed. I use muscle testing to determine if an attachment is present and if it is, where exactly it is located in the client’s energy field. Once we have that information, I simply engage the spiritual level (guides and angels specifically) and ask them to remove the attachment. When Alice is present for the session, she can give a vivid detailed “play by play” of what is happening during this process. The details are fascinating and while there is a common pathway or protocol that occurs as these energies are removed, the specifics are always unique and quite interesting. Fortunately, we have digitally recorded almost all of our sessions in which we do this type of work. Alice and I are now talking about writing a book and sharing many of the stories around this subject.
7. The reason I got into this area is because I am always looking for “what is the root cause?” when trying to help someone shift an issue. If you don’t address the root cause, you probably won’t be successful in the long run. Attachments can be the root cause of many physical, mental and emotional well-being issues. Another meta-physical place that I look (usually the second thing I check for) is past life conflicts. If there is some unresolved issue from a past life, that alone can keep you stuck for your whole lifetime. Again, I had to keep digging to find the root of the problem, and I eventually realized the root of the problem sometimes is deeper than anything that has happened in this lifetime. Whether you believe in past lives or not, it can be an effective “theory” to use as a tool to access unresolved emotional energy that is keeping you stuck. Alice’s abilities are very helpful when dealing with past life issues as well. She typically sees the past life like a movie playing in her mind’s eye. She can easily go to the parts of the movie that hold the keys to resolving the conflict and then we typically use a couple emotion resolution techniques to resolve (or dissolve) the energy that has been stuck.
Once a person has a basic understanding of attachments, the two questions they usually ask are:
- How do I get rid of an attachment?
- How do I protect myself from getting attachments?
Both Alice and I can help you with removing attachments. There are others out there who provide this type of service, check them out thoroughly before proceeding. Once you gain some experience around this, it can be fairly easy in most cases to remove them yourself. But, you have to understand the basics and know what you’re doing in order to be effective. So, I recommend working with someone who is experienced and has a good track record with attachment removal. Being able to be aware of the attachment and locating it are the two biggest challenges.
As for the second question, one of the easiest ways to avoid attachments is to learn to live in high vibration (positive emotional state or positive mood). The more you are up in a high emotional state (feeling states of peace, joy, freedom, love, gratitude and excitement are good examples), the more protected you are. Attachments are low vibration, negative energy. Because “like attracts like” you would need to be in a low vibration state in order to pick up an attachment. There are some exceptions to this, like being under anesthesia, but generally, as long as you are feeling good and in a positive state, you’re impenetrable energetically. It’s very similar to how your immune system works. When your immune system is strong, you can fend off virtually any virus or bacteria that comes at you. Your immune system is like a protective force field. The same is true of high vibration. When you are in high vibration your aura acts like a protective force field and can repel negative energies.
As part of my coaching support, I help people shift into being able to live in very high states. I’ve found some shortcuts that make this much easier than you may expect. Refer to other articles in this blog in the Living the Ultimate Manifestation category.
There are other ways to protect yourself, and I plan to write a followup article that will cover that. In the meantime, for more information on this, please feel free to post comments below or contact me directly.
I hope this article has helped to explain the concept of energy attachments and set you at ease about the possibility of their presence in your life. I find that most people are unaware of this idea, or they have fearful ideas about it. I feel it is important to understand this aspect of reality and not be afraid of it. But, rather educate yourself a bit and gain some experience in how to effectively address it in your own life.
