  Guides of the Three Great Ways The next week was filled with thoughts and questions about the Three Great Ways. I was astonished to discover that I could easily identify people based on their Soul path. I gazed at my co workers at the non-profit organization where I worked and grouped them according to the River’s explanation. I understood more clearly how conflicts at work and at home develop because of different soul paths. My ex-husband was Earth Way, although he had some Water Way tendencies, still his basic insistence on production, survival and appearance in the hierarchy where he worked was troublesome to me. The development of chaotic, inexplicable world events suddenly became more comprehensible to me. With the preponderance of Earth and Aire Way people in the world presently, big picture issues like managing climate change, developing sustainable energy sources, protecting the biosphere and social justice, are obviously too difficult for them to understand because of ...

 River Books-Book Two  Session Three-Life Goals, Symbolisms of Water, Aire, and Earth Ways River: In great love and harmony, we welcome you! Julia: Welcome! River: Have you performed your homework duties this week? Julia: Yes. River: please give us the first part of the lessons of this journey you are on. Julia: You asked for three statements and I divided my life into what I saw as three parts. What I learned from the first part which I called childhood. I felt I was accommodating myself to others. River: A form of receptiveness and openness. Julia: Right- and what I felt I had learned was that I could be receptive without losing myself. River: That is the lesson of the first part which is, number one, to open, to be aware. One cannot learn to accommodate without awareness of others, and though this way may be viewed as negative, it may also be viewed in a positive way. Continue. Julia: The second part of my life, I called my youth and I felt this was marked...

 Presence is greater than words Excerpted from " The Enlightened Heart-Chronicles of a psychedelic psychotherapist "  released in August 2025 on Kindle Direct Publishing. Copies can be bought from my website and on Amazon website. https://www.amazon.ca/Enlightened-Heart-Chronicles-psychedelic-psychotherapist/dp/B0FLYH15KM After years of working with people facing poverty, addictions and trauma, I concluded that Jung was right,   there cannot be any lasting personal changes without a concomitant deep spiritual experience. I wondered if psychedelics could have potential for the intense emotional releases and insights that are needed for Soul healing and opening. I didn’t lose lost faith completely in conventional psychology and pharmacology, but I knew I needed to look for a deeper understanding. When I started working in a pain clinic, my drive to find better therapies intensified. That yearning to work with better tools lead to me towards going back to using psychedelic...

 Session Two-Life themes The channel, Catherine and I settle into her small city apartment. We have committed to meeting once a week for The River until they are finished channeling their books. Catherine takes a moment to shift and wrap a shawl around herself. It is her habit to always hold two large amythyst crystals in her hands, which she turns over and over once in trance. I set up the tape recorder and wait for the River to come through. They always begin with- “Greetings!”. On the coffee table in front of me are my notes on my last weeks assignment-summarize in about five sentences, the learnings of my life so far. As usual, when I’m face to face with the River, I’m filled with trepidation. They have often told me there is nothing to fear-all that can be revealed is more of who I am. That still scares me. River: Greetings! Tell us the truth you have seen during the passing of this time of life tell us! Julia: Right-first all choices will lead to a growth of some kind but a g...
