Class Time again!

I don't know which I like better....teaching or learning. They both really and truly excite me. I am the kid that liked going to school, and I still do. I took on the task of earning a masters and doctorate years after graduating Montclair State College (now Montclair State University). I have taken metaphysical classes from Astrology to Reiki. I became an ordained minister by actually going through a course, not by just submitting my name to a website. I have learned from many teachers and masters. I have had tons of personal experience living in two haunted houses, and working with people for years and years. I have taught reiki, tarot reading, Universal law, and psychic development. Now I am going to have a class on what I have the most personal experience in, those on the other side.

When looking at class notes for the psychic development class, I realized that much of it was good information for those who wanted to "ghost hunt" (I always thought that was a funny term, you don't hunt them, and many times they hunt YOU). People think that there are only dead spirits in hauntings (not true), that there are only one or two things on the other side like angels and demons (not true), and that things like black shadow people are total evil (not true again). It would help if people who were "ghost hunters" really understood what they are hunting! I know that Jason Hawes is a reiki master and has studied and read deep into the other side, so he gets it, but then there are popular groups out there with TV shows who really don't have a clue.

I recently added a new class to the lineup, "Things that go bump", and it will help people understand haunted places better and have a better handle on how to help people. It should be fun, entertaining, and informative.

When you see a new class out there, ask about what it is all about , and then if it resonates with you, or you think it sounds realistic, take it. Be wary of crazy classes out there that are offered, or even classes for things you DON'T need a class in. Make sure you have accredited (when applicable), and experienced teachers. Don't be a class junkie, stick with what really interests you. Don't pay a ton of money for a class, there really isn't anything worth more than $100 for a weekend (2 days of class time). Read up on it a bit before the class so you can ask intelligent questions, and get deep into the subject. It also helps to know if the class is a good one. I recently had a friend take a reiki class and she didn't learn the basic hand positions....that is like learning to read without knowing the alphabet.

There are MANY New Age charlatans out there. Make sure that you are never asked for more at the end of the class...more money, more things to donate to the teacher, nothing. Make sure they are authentic. Ask, then check them out. When you feel a little uncomfortable, don't do it. Trust your gut, it is the first lesson is Psychic Development!

Have fun and learn, it is a wonderful way to grow!
