The ego-self is an amalgamation of beliefs, some positive and others negative. These beliefs can be added to the ego by you or those around you. Ego thoughts are typically founded on polarities such as ideas of being better or worse than others. These thoughts can also be self-serving. For instance, believing you are smart is rooted in the foundational belief that you are smarter than another or others. What's more, the ego is hungry, "I want, I need, I am entitled to..." The hungry ego makes us vulnerable to things such as disappointment, hurt and resentment of yourself and others. Who would we be without the fallacious ego? One would be a being without judgment of one self and others, without selfish motives like besting others, preserving ego beliefs or egocentric desires based on entitlement. Detaching from our ego-self connects us to our higher-self. It is the best part of who we are when the ego has fallen away. The counterfeit concept of self is no longer needed, and we are free from resentment and disappointment from this life and the last. The higher self is both a spiritual entity and a conduit. Once we connect and communicate with our higher self, we are deeply in touch with our truth. A sign of connection to our higher self is a strong sense of integrity and a profound alignment with our life path and life purpose. Our higher self also provides guidance and understanding, through intuition and spiritual knowing. When we are connected to our higher self we will have keen instincts and trust our senses. The greatest gift our higher self has to offer is the spiritual wisdom from guides, angels and ascended masters...all of whom are a part of us. This sacred wisdom can help us break karmic cycles that we carry from lifetime to lifetime, and helps us see the delusions of the material world. This knowledge is the essence of transcendence. As such, our higher self is the catalyst for enlightenment and enlightenment itself. The enlightened individual inhabits this world and yet resonates with a frequency much beyond it. Connecting to the higher self is not complicated. However, for some, the challenge is to quiet the mind. To connect to the higher self, one must quiet the nervous chatter of the ego. This can be achieved through the practice of mindfulness and presence. Being fully present in the now, observing ones experiences, emotions and thoughts, without judgment is a means to connect with the higher self. When we do that reflexively, across different circumstances, and around different energies, it is a sign we are connected to the higher self. Meditation is another practice that fosters a deep connection to the higher self. Calming the busy mind and quieting the chatter of the ego is a valuable practice when connecting to the higher self. Being able to maintain a deep mental stillness throughout the day and maintaining a distance between our inner peace and the external busyness of our surroundings is another indication one is connected to the higher self. To receive communication from the higher self, some people use divination tools such as scrying mirrors, pendulums, oracle cards. Automatic writing is an easy divination tool that requires nothing more than a pen and paper. The practice involves setting the intention to connect with the higher self, ideally after meditation, and writing on the paper. One may start by doodling, scribbling or writing nothing at all. With time, and without expectations or prejudgment, one will start to write words, perhaps even full sentences from the higher self. No matter what tool is used, even if one opts to use nothing at all, the best means of connecting with the higher self is receptivity and openness to the spiritual messages we are guided to. Openness and receptivity are strong signs of connection to the higher self. When the delusions of the material world begin to fall away, one will be more perceptive to spiritual truths and energies, helping us transcend our current experiential existence and begin to authentically merge with the higher self across the ages. Although the higher self is a part of who we are, it may seem like a far climb and a lengthy process to connect with ones divine essence. The advice I give to clients is to not overwhelm oneself. Having intention to begin the journey is a sign you have already begun to connect to that part of you that is divine and spiritually connected to Source. In love and truth, Lori Lines

Am I dying or am I experiencing something else? Oh my God! This thought raced through my head in a swirling circle. I felt myself attempting to scream for help but my entire body would not cooperate. I was unable to move. I thought of jumping out of bed but I felt disoriented and there was a heavy weight pinning my legs, chest, arms to the mattress. My eyes were open and I caught a fleeting glimpse of a dark shadow hovering over me. Were those gnashing teeth and piercing eyes I just saw? Paralyzed in fear, this incident only lasted for a few minutes until the thought dropped into my head, "Pray NOW!" OKAY! "Our Father who art in heaven...." I prayed in my mind until my mouth could cooperate and function again. The heaviness on top of me dissipated like ashes scattering to the wind. "Thank you Heavenly Father..." I heard myself say. All the while the clock was ticking but my reality had halted time. It was 2 a.m. There was no way I was going back to sleep. Nope. Nada. Ain't gonna happen. I thought, "was this fantasy?" It wasn't and I knew it. I decided to meditate and pray while staying up until it was time for me to get up and get my child ready for school. To this day, when I shut my eyes, I can remember each snapshot of it. I have read about benevolent beings and nefarious energies for as long as I can remember. Holy messengers have always been acceptable who brought feelings of love, bliss and light. Malevolent beings brought difficulty, fear, darkness, obliteration. Was that what it was? Evil? I did forget to meditate and pray that night prior to going to sleep. In looking back, experiencing things like this was pretty common when I was a child. It rarely happened as an adult. But, one thing I know for sure, when one experiences something so..."other worldly" like that, it is very real and can be a very frightening thing. Many people, in the millions actually, experience sleep paralysis at least once in their lives. Sleep paralysis happens when we are either waking up or falling asleep and can last for seconds up to minutes. It involves not being able to move or speak and includes not being able to open or shut your eyes. During a sleep paralysis episode many people report "hallucinations" and scary events such as a feeling that someone is holding them down and that they are not able to take a breath. Just like me, most people come out of the event with a sudden and quick jerk, perhaps grabbing at their throat as they gasp for air. If you happen to have your eyes open, you may not be able to see the physical world or you may not be able to recognize it. Many have reported seeing spirits and feeling as if they were falling or flying without any control, something that is commonly experienced in the spirit realm. Is there a spiritual take on sleep paralysis? Many people feel there is. I sure do. When experiencing this type of paralysis many people report that they seem to be partially in their bodies and partially out and when they come out of the paralysis, they seem to "fall" back into their physical body as if they were astral-projecting and landing back into their body too quickly. So, does sleep paralysis have a connection to astral-projecting? Are we partially out of our body and partially still connected and something goes very wrong resulting in sleep paralysis? Many spiritualists say this. Astral projecting takes place by those who do not have control over it when they are falling asleep, have hit REM sleep or who are coming out of a deep REM sleep. But, what if there is a problem somewhere between REM sleep and astral projection that results in sleep paralysis? Some sleep professionals that are geared toward the spiritual purview will agree with this theory. From experience, sleep paralysis may be the beginning stage of astral projection and without advanced knowledge, wisdom and experience in controlled astral projection, there can be quite the issue. So, what can we do about this potentially frightening experience? Well, to begin with it is well known that the closer to your spiritual self you become, the better experiences like sleep paralysis can be understood. Those who actually learn about projecting, while sleeping, and practice it have said that they experience much less sleep paralysis when they are used to practicing astral projection. Alternatively, those that say they have a daily life long meditation routine have reported much less episodes as well. There have been sleep studies that suggest that sleep paralysis takes place, with those people that seem to be overly tired than when trying to go to sleep more so than when they go to bed at a routine time. Taking that into account, there are some things both physically and spiritually that one can do to find a bit of control over sleep paralysis. However, if you are searching for metaphysical takes on this, there are some that have been suggested and are believed. One such belief is that the reason you are having episodes of this is because you are psychic. Clairvoyance tends to focus on visions, however, psychic mediums have been known to travel into the spirit realm, controlled, throughout their lives many times. In fact, those that follow a Shamanic path are often in the spirit realm and say that, to them, sleep paralysis seems like the soul is trying to connect and enter the spirit realm but the body is fighting back. Another belief is that you are psychic and probably a medium, natural born. Sleep paralysis happens when a soul or element is attempting to speak with you or overwhelm you. Vitality creatures in different realms and domains are, in some cases, progressively more mindful of your psychic medium-dispatch capacities than you are. If you are a medium, you sparkle a specific light and transmit a particular vibration that draws them in to you. In the event that you are unconscious, this is going on or still can't seem to recognize or grasp these blessings, at that point you will completely encounter the downturn, tension and stress that analysts will attempt to fault as the purpose behind the sleep paralysis. Be that as it may, the downturn, tension and stress are simply one more arrangement of the side-effects...and not the reason. So, if this is true, then it would be of great assistance for you to learn al you can about being a psychic medium and get as close to your spiritual side as possible. Then, naturally, as you progress your practice, you will find that sleep paralysis may actually become a full-blown spiritual world trip for you. In love and truth, Lori Lines  By Lori Lines
Many clients mention the yearning for connection with like-minded people because, in this age of social media, political divisiveness, and information overload, we are disconnected more than ever. But that doesn't have to be the case, if one is open and willing to put down the smartphones, close down their laptops, and take responsibility for making a few changes. Several years ago I moved back to my hometown after being gone for several years. Though there were still a few people I knew from my old school days, I had grown in a different direction and I didn't have much in common with most of them anymore. After settling in, I decided it was time to find my soul tribe of like-minded individuals. I attended a few meet-up groups before I settled in on one. From that point on, I met a few wonderful, like-minded folks that have become a core soul-group...these people have been there through thick and thin and I feel so blessed to have them in my life. Attracting our soul group is an important part of the journey to accessing inner peace and a more productive and joy-filled life. Finding that group of individuals who truly "get" us can completely enrich our lives. What I've learned is by understanding who you are and sharing similar values and beliefs helps ensure that you will be able to speak for hours and enjoy your connections. While finding them can be challenging, here are some tips to help you attract your soul group and enjoy a more satisfying life:
By the way, if you are interested in going deeper into understanding your relationships, you might want to schedule an intuitive guidance appointment with me so we can delve into specifics. In love and truth, Lori Lines  By Lori Lines
This question comes up with clients all the time, especially after a session when the experience was so helpful or when the Higher-self explains that the person is not ready to address everything on their agenda but a few items. When approaching QHHT for the first time, one may be hesitant about what they may expect from the session. Some arrive curious and reticent about possible issues which can derive from this modality. Also, some need time to adjust to the energy of a QHHT session through the interview as well as to experience something that's, more than likely, foreign to them. People who approach QHHT often have problems which can concern both health and personal life, or they would simply like to know more about their past or where they fit into the cosmic scheme of the Universe. Whatever reason one brings to the interest in this technique, a QHHT session can bring more benefits than one can imagine. However, questions can arise as well as doubts. The Higher-self (or Subconscious) is unpredictable and we never know how many new scenarios will be brought to light; always for further transcendence and healing, for the highest good of the client. What is very interesting, is that all information from the Higher-self doesn't necessarily come at once but gradually through each session. I suspect this is because the Higher-self, since it knows the truth as well as everything about us, knows how much information to bring forth based on the readiness of an individual's ability to receive the profundity of the information. Many times a client will experience the HS telling them they are not yet ready for certain information and letting go of an old wound or problem needs to occur first. Past personalities, unexplained fears and phobias, unconscious blessings and more...all these aspects are deeply investigated during the course of a QHHT session, yet sometimes need time to emerge as the client evolves in their own time. Many often want to try a QHHT session just for curiosity, hoping to solve anxiety, phobias or lack of self-worth with only one session. However, some change their minds, especially once these issues are resolved, and ask for follow-up sessions as their journey in their lives continue and new questions and concerns emerge as they move forward in their lives. Sometimes, the HS will recommend a follow-up session for a later time, especially when there's a big issue of focus in the first session that needs to be addressed and other issues fade into the background for a later date. As a QHHT Practitioner, I always intend the HS to lead. Therefore, the HS makes the decision whether another follow-up session is appropriate for the client. The choice is always in the client's hands. In love and truth, Lori Lines #qhht #qhhtofficial  By Lori Lines
Most people talk about stepping outside their comfort zone like it is stepping into the Twilight Zone, a furtive place no one wants to explore not on their own. The issue with this kind of thinking is that it keeps us safe, and that's not always a good thing. Feeling comfortable is fine, feeling comfortable is needed, but feeling complacency is a big no-no. Although being comfortable brings us a sense of calmness and familiarity, it can also prevent us from being curious. Curiosity is something we naturally have, and it means wondering about what was, what is, and what will be. You might not realize it, but you miss so much of life by not raising your hand, your voice, or chasing your dreams. It shouldn't be this way. Here are seven positive benefits of stepping out of your comfort zone.
If you feel stuck in life, have fear of stepping out of your comfort zone, a QHHT session can help us identify the underpinnings of the fear associated with moving forward. Once the root cause of the fear is identified, many clients have found they are able to clear away the debris causing obstacles so they can move forward in their lives.

Spending copious amounts of time alone in reflection and meditation provides the space to feel and hear the language of the soul. It is when we acknowledge how we feel that we access the highest truth within. One cannot access truth when in a state of overthinking, overanalyzing and frantic daily actions that society has indoctrinated us. The key to all truth is to discover how you FEEL. It is digging through the layers of societal conditioning and mind-control. It is the set-point to accessing your power. It is your springboard to action that is in alignment with your soul, your true self, your essence, your purpose, and, ultimately, true happiness. In love and truth, Lori Lines  By Lori Lines
The Higher-Self (aka, the Subconscious or SC) always knows what it's doing and how to help. In QHHT, Higher-Self is the director of the entire session from its inception, when a client is drawn to working with a certain practitioner and decides to schedule an appointment, all the way to the end of the after-talk and beyond. With that said, as a practitioner, it is interesting to find out the real reason a client has entered into the sphere. When paying close attention, we can see there's always a reason and it may not necessarily turn out to be for the reason the client thinks. Since practicing QHHT full-time for a few years now, I've learned the QHHT modality isn't just for finding our cosmic origins and time-travel to other-worldly dimensions. Not everyone is ready for this kind of experience until they have let go of what's weighing them down. Lately, there has been a client trend that bears mention. This trend of individuals have been finding personal transcendence through old timelines in their current lives. Case in point: The client is induced into a hypnotic state and lands in a "scene." When describing the scene, the client realizes this is a memory of a trauma or a disappointment from their past that was experienced in the current lifetime. This usually happens when one has not yet healed the wounds of the attachment to the story. The client has brought this trauma into the present and, like most of us, reacts through a self-conditioned response that originates from past wounding. I question the client in order for them to experience, deeply and emotionally, the entire story, in as much detail as possible. After the client has completed describing the story and has felt the emotions fully connected to that story, Once the HS is accessed, it will then ask the client to relay the story again and imagine it by seeing and fully experiencing it while changing all the events in the story, to their liking, leading up to and including the way they want the new outcome to occur. This re-patterns the feelings associated with the story and the client always begins to see things from a different perspective. The client imprints the timeline with a much better emotion, and the outcome is exactly as they want it. The intention of this re-patterning is very healing on many dimensions of ones experience. This has helped clients refrain from being unconsciously reactive to present situations that may trigger the old experience. Further, I ask the higher-self if this would be a good time to do a body scan. If it is, I ask the HS where this wounding is located in the body. Once this is identified, I will then ask the HS if it is in the highest good of the client to transcend this stuck energy while doing the body scan. In my experience, the HS has always scanned and cleared this energetic wound that resides in the body. I have found in discussing the incident with the HS and in the after-talk, the client begins to realize how their own behavior has kept them in the original story with a continuous loop of victimization. With that new understanding, they are empowered to place the past in its proper perspective and move forward in their lives. This technique is beneficial for anyone who has a habit of hanging onto grievances or for someone who has difficulty recovering from a major loss that one has buried deep within themselves which may be causing harm in one way or another. In most cases, the harm shows up in dysfunctional relationships of all kinds as well as manifestations of addictions, obsessions, and even disease. It empowers the client to release negative emotions and helps them move forward in a way that they are no longer tethered to the wounds from the past. The following are negative conditions that can be helped by this process during QHHT: Anxiety Depression PTSD (Post Traumatic Stress Disorder)/Trauma Grief Sadness Apathy and indifference Fears and phobias Insomnia Procrastination Lack of authentic self-worth General stuck in life By using this technique, clients have reported feeling like a "weight has been lifted." Results have been feeling more joy and happiness, feeling distance from the past, living in the present moment more, complete forgiveness of self and others, clearer thinking and more harmonious relationships.

I tell my clients and friends all the time about this ritual for abundance. However, it is important to explain how important it is to learn oneself so well, through the practice of mindfulness, that this ritual will work quickly and flawlessly. You see, when we are in a state of presence within ourselves, we can bear witness to the thoughts and feelings that obstruct the treasures that are already there for us to uncover and enjoy. Also, it needs to be said, mindfulness is simple yet no human is able to become an expert. Mindfulness is a practice that helps us gain insight into the thoughts and emotions that shape our reality...it helps us get to know ourselves so well that we are able to eventually remove obstacles, that we create, to having or being what we desire. Mindfulness is usually that step that most "gurus" forget to tell us about when talking about ritual and affirmation regarding what we want in our lives. That being said, here's a ritual that I have used for years and, over time, using my mindfulness techniques, I've been able to remove some, but not all, of my self-induced obstacles to getting what I want. I, like you, am a work in progress. :) Here's what you will need:
Holding intention for abundance, use your sharp object to scratch your name into the candle seven times. Anoint the candle with the oil. Place the candle in a secure holder on a fireproof surface. Keep away from children. To do an effective ritual, be of clear mind when you light the candle. Staring into the flame for a few moments to allow the candle to absorb your intentions. Allow the flame to serve as a symbol of your prayer. Now, with imagination and emotion project what it would feel like to have all the money you want, say this affirmation at least 10 times: "Money comes to me easily. I prosper at everything I do. I have money in the bank, money in my pockets (or purse), money to spend and money to share. I am one with infinite supply. I am wealthy. I am generous. I am comfortable and secure because I always have plenty of money. I am fortunate, blessed with abundance. There is no limit to my wealth and for this, I am grateful." When finished, thank the Divine for granting your request, ask that harm come to none. If you would like, you can leave the candle burning as long as you are in attendance. Never leave your candle unattended. Instead of blowing your candle out, use a candle snuffer. Blowing a candle out blows your intentions away. Continue to light the candle daily, repeating the affirmation until the candle is consumed. I wish you abundance and peace, Lori Lines  By Channeled by Lori Lines
The recent energies have been an intense cycle of humans being energy carriers in order to create the Great Shift and changes in the U.S. We are gaining wisdom as the energy continues to turn into the next year. Next year we will begin to realize our rebirth, having lost a part of ourselves and wanting to gain back and to grow and regain the strength of what once was, yet, in another way. Those on the path will be consulting, in a meditative prayerful way, our inner counsel. We will be feeling ourselves in this way through a deep dive. For those in relationships with those they are meant to be with, will be feeling each other's energy - a deep journey into spirituality while shifts and changes come for you. Partners know they are in for a deep journey. 2020 will be a deeply auspicious time that will ultimately bring us into harmony. Secrets continue to be revealed and it is encouraged to take things slow and even if you feel like being solitary, more transformation is highly probable. Many of you have been here many times. You're coming into abundance and wish-fulfillment through the shifts and changes when following your heart. This occurs after the soupy darkness lifts that the world has lived in. A lot of transformation and telepathic communications in relationships, bringing soul connections closer together. More activation will be apparent through the moon cycles, charging us up to move into our destiny. Whatever that has not been able to be released, on a spiritual level, such as fear and anxiety - this will eventually be released now, coming up. Intend it and it shall be. Your energy, as you perfect it and reclaim it for yourself, in our current world, is needed to build new structures bringing forward prophecy and being able to manifest it through the Universal Consciousness. There is great change coming into the world. That part of you that has not been recognized or utilized, from deep in the heart, will be rising to the highest point of possibility with opportunity to be expressed in the world. Clarity, balance and truth coming out into the sun. Ultimately balancing and making decisions to take the next steps. Know that your energy will be utilized in the world. You may feel like there's no progress being made but you are asked to stand still and allow the energies to integrate and align with you as you stand in suspended animation. Progress will begin in movement soon. Let go and take notice as you rise after shedding what's no longer needed. So, submit and be still as things rise within you, allowing you to manifest your destiny. In love and truth, Lori Lines  By Lori Lines
I would like to share with you a short version of a QHHT session with a client recently: Without going into details, to protect her privacy, this lovely and very articulate woman had suffered numerous physical abuses during childhood. She was born with very natural intuitive, artistic and musical gifts. Her father was a very prominent figure in the 60's and 70's who, when she expressed her light, her creativity and sought his approval, would do everything he could to diminish her expression to the point of physical abuse. Because of this, she stopped expressing her talents and became a woman who gave too much to prove her worth to others. Over time she had very clear patterns of specific physical symptoms as well as boundary issues in all relationships. During her QHHT session she literally experienced and made a very profound connection between her father's abuse, her physical symptoms and her boundary issues. Somehow, the abuse from her father was "way back there" somewhere in the rearview mirror, mired in a small amount of denial. She loved her father very much. Her physical symptoms were an emotional manifestation to keep the abuse from happening (which would give her temporary reprieve from his abuse) but the symptoms continued into adulthood until she made this connection as to the origins of the symptoms in her QHHT session. Through the loving direction and unfoldment of visions, provided by her higher-self, from her past in this lifetime, as well as past lives, she was able to realize the truth of the severity of the abuse from her father, how it was affecting her life now, and to truly forgive and let him go. This empowered her to take more control of her life. When she left, she said she felt so much lighter. Her aura appeared very bright and shiny after her session and she knew this QHHT session was Divinely guided because she was ready to face reality, at this juncture in her life, and to take the steps to make necessary changes so that she could bring back her art, her voice, and her music. She could not stop smiling! Another happy client. I feel so blessed to be a part of waking people up, one client at a time. In love and truth, Lori Lines |
