General FAQ's
1. There are many religious, spiritual, psychic, and personal growth disciplines available nowadays ... how do I choose?
One of the best indicators is a feeling of joy and lightness. Trust yourself. Originally and historically, all meditation and prayer forms - all techniques and rituals - were created to stimulate the desire for the Soul & a personal feeling of Divinity. It's your own desire that does the work ... not the technique or ritual. Believe it or not.
And as your desire grows, the need for rituals and techniques becomes less.
2. What do you mean by the words "entering your own Divinity"?
Maybe the best way to explain this is with a short exercise. Subvocalize the question, how do I enter my Soul? Allow your lips to move as you form the words silently or with a slight whisper. Repeat 3 or 4 times, closing your eyes as you ask and softening the boundaries of your personality as you listen. Divinity is inside.
3. You may see the term 'guru' on this website ... why?
Because we're idiots? Gee, I sure hope not. As it happens, both of us have a Christian background that led inexorably to seeking a living spiritual master or guru. Sometimes, we will use Sanskrit words (with definitions) because there are no good words in the English language for the same thing. In this case, guru means 'liberator from darkness' (gu: to liberate; ru: darkness).
In a very real sense; a mentor, a good teacher, or a parent can be your guru. And in the newest waves of consciousness on our Earth your own Soul - or your music and your art - can be your guru too. It really is that simple ... best not to get too hung-up on philosophy.
4. Is there a difference between psychic and spiritual experiences?
Kind of ... you could say the difference is rooted in each individual. Some people and practitioners like to dabble with The Infinite - and to never go too far beyond what excites or titillates their egos and personalities. And so, their experiences will generally be confined to the psychic realms of the Universe.
But, when you feel the pull of deeper experiences - a thirst for limitlessness, then you begin to migrate into the Great Unknown. In a nutshell, spiritual experiences are like entering a good mystery ... you have to let go.
5. This all sounds so, you know, New Age.
Really? If you look back, historically there have always been individuals who could hear God and the many voices of Divinity. Christian Mystics for example. What may be different at this time in our history is that anyone can now, more easily, access spiritual experiences. That can be a little scary for some people. It's not about what you believe, or any dogma ... God is about direct personal relationship & experience. Remember that your Greater Self and Soul is achieved through inner depth, emotional maturity, and strength of personal experience.
6. Is any of this fun?
Ha! Good question. Well, sure ... sometimes. Like anything in Life that takes effort, there are good times and crummy times. Immensely good times ... and immensely crummy times.
A spiritual master once made the blunt suggestion to learn spiritual (or inner) discipline at the earliest possible moment in Life. Then, all education, recreation, art, career development, and Life exploration proceeds more smoothly and fully.
And that can be fun.
7. You keep mentioning emotional maturity - why?
The history of spirituality and religion is littered with the dead bodies of spiritually-inclined individuals who did not pursue their psychological, emotional, and relational growth. Not a good thing from a cultural point of view.
We, as a species, have this hidden fear of failure in the face of God; so we build belief systems, and rituals, and techniques, and training systems to touch the face of Spirit. On the psych-emotional level it's pretty complex, and often mixed-up with control issues, as well as the fear of growing beyond family, friends, and tribal structures/strictures.
But, on a personal level it's pretty simple ... all-round, balanced growth and deepening maturity is the best approach to happiness.
8. What's the biggest stumbling block in this inner work?
Two things come to mind. First, a sense of powerlessness, a belief in your own smallness. Second, that Spirit can be pre-defined ... Living Spirit is either live in the moment, or it's not really alive. Actually, a third block to stumble over just came to mind: ego & personality - when ego & personality are dominant ... the Soul takes a nap.

Even though God, your Soul, or Divinity can answer all your questions, it's fun to read questions and answers that other people have asked. Then you get answers really quickly.

Session FAQ's
1. What can I expect to experience in a Personal Session?
Lots ... but to be more specific, feelings from your own greater Self. Beyond any Life questions you may have, these sessions are meant to trigger the doorway(s) of your Soul. There is no deeper experience of God until you enter your own doorway to Divinity.
2. Yes, but will I hear words and get advice?
You bet, most likely more than you bargained for. Nancy can transmit the words and energies from any entity or person. This can be overwhelming, and it's also why we request each individual to think carefully about how ready they are for deeper Life changes ... because who you are, will change.
3. How does Nancy 'hear and feel' these voices or entities?
Very clearly. Nancy is deeply empathic (and telepathic) - her native skills have been honed through more than thirty years of emotional growth, rigorous personal discipline and deep spiritual practice.
4. Whoa ... isn't Nancy just a Channeler?
Hmm. In one sense, every human is a Channel: all 6 billion of us on the Earth are always receiving our greater Selves and deeper Divinities to the limit of our personal capacities. Now, some people have taken this capacity to a level where they can hear and transmit other entities ... and in our modern era, we call them Channels or Channelers (or Artists). If you are a Christian, you may want to think of it as allowing in the Holy Spirit. Nancy has gone a bit further. She is able to sit with God and pass along direct advice and intimate contact from Divinity, or any entity or energy that is helpful for anyone's next step in Life.
5. Is this like a session with a Psychic where I ask questions and the Psychic (or some entity) answers them?
Nope. Nancy is not a Psychic. This is very participatory ... you will need to be able to go inward and deeper. Nancy creates a 'field of Divinity' within which any entity or energy (including God) can come through. But, who and what comes through is dependent on you, and how much you are ready to receive. Nancy, Hib and the many energies of Divinity can ...
- Aid people in crossing over (dying) at the end of Life.- Help you find your own divine guidance for answers- Provide specific advice for health and healing.- Help parents contact and bring in a soul/child.- Give direct guidance to individuals, corporations, & projects.The one caveat: Are you ready for your Soul to predominate?
6. What about privacy ... and when, where, how should I pay?
All session work is confidential. And as far as payment or gifting of money, please go to our Payment Page for information.
We had offered consults free-of-charge since 1992. Not so long ago, Nancy decided to ask Divinity to suggest a reasonable fee for these sessions. Here is what God said. "What you charge for these sessions is the desire for individuals to be in-charge of their own Divine purpose. Money is only a small expression of that exchange, and as such, it becomes relatively unimportant. The deeper energy exchange comes from those Souls that come together at that time to interact and share. Do you understand?"
7. Do you work with small groups, families, or corporations?
As a matter of fact, we do. A central theme applies: clients must have the capacity to move inward. This is not as easy as it sounds, as it always requires a deepening psychological and emotional maturity. This is also why Nancy (and Divinity) screens all clients beforehand.
8. How about children - does Nancy work with kids?
Yes, if they are willing. Children vary widely in their desire to listen inward. There is a Chinese medical axiom that has meaning here, "Treat the parent if you want to heal the child." As a general rule of thumb, if you seek a session for yourself you will also end up with direct guidance for your child or children.
9. If I want to speak directly with a (friend, family member, child) who passed away ... could I?
The simple answer is, yes. But you can also do this without Nancy - if you open your heart and speak with them, they're right there immediately. Odds are you will feel their presence as soon as you open your heart. It's good to remember, the only thing that dies is the physical body ... the soul is eternal & remains alive, active, & available.
