I agree with you Lisa, we all have to love ourselves, Its so hard to look in the mirror at ourselves and say I love you though. But we should all do it. Your blog is so inspirational to read thank you for that:)

Everything I have read today blog wise, has been around loving yourself and being able to forgive yourself. I take it as a sign to what I need to realize because I have been struggling with this exact thing lately. Your blog speaks the truth. I love the positivity you show all the time. It really helps those who need it! Thank you! :->

I also agree with Lisa, we need to Love ourselfs , I will admit it is a hard thing for me to do, due to past issues, but I do try it each day
Thank you so much
Have a Blessed Day

I love the idea behind this... but at the moment I am having problems with the husband and the internet... When I see someone I don't know tell my husband of 20 years, I love you...while on line. I am not at all happy.
They pass out the words with out thinking... they have only just met him while playing a game. We should mean what we say, and use I Love You, in the right context.

I think it's wonderful that you and your family are involved in the Childhelp charity. Thank you for the advice and encouragement that you share on your blog. Have a great day!

(((Lisa)))
More beautiful words of wisdom!!
I also had to break off with a family member and as you say that doesn't mean that I don't love them, it just means that they were harmful to our lives, meaning I had to chose to not continue a cycle and do what I could for my kids and grandkids to never have to deal with such things...
It is so hard to break off with a loved one, much harder than people realize but is also sometimes the best thing you can do for yourself, your immediate family and even the person that you broke off with..
I hope that made sense..
I don't really have many family members left but I have a great group of friends that are like family and that I love like family..
I wasn't raised in England but I didn't have much love from family from a very young age so it was hard for me to tear down my emotional wall of protection until I got away from the influences that caused me to build that wall..
The good news is that now there is so much love in our immediate family including our surrogate family of friends that life is wonderful and I feel so fortunate..
Thanks for such an inspirational post today and showing us some of you from the inside..
What a powerful thing you are doing here and I want you to know that even though we have never met, you are such a beautiful person...
Thanks so much...
Cindy

Reading this made me realize I need to love myself, My mother would always tell me to feel better about myself. but these past 5 months have been the hardest ever in my life. After losing my mother in July I've felt like I have no worth, I cant love myself because I'm so sad and lonley; But reading your blog post has helped me a little to understand how important it is to love MYSELF, My mom always told me "if you dont love yourself, than who will love you" and in a way she was right. -James

I look forward to your blog postings. Please, don't stop. So much tragedy has happened in my life over the last few years I find comfort in what you share and how you have helped so many people find peace. Thanks.

Hi Lisa,
I love your blogs. It really IS important to tell others you love them. And as a previous poster said, it's best in the right context also. I also realize, and more so as I get older, that it's extremely important to let your loved ones know. It will make your heart and theirs smile!

Lisa, i admire you :) you are using every opportunity you get to spread light to people who need it! bless you!

Hi Lisa,
I'd like to commend you on everything you do for people. I love you show but heard it is cancelled?? OMG I can't believe it! You'll be doing another show though, similar to John Edward's show, right? :) I'd like to share my transformation story here if it's ok....

Christmas of 1997 holds quite a painful memory for me. My youngest brother Brian was killed that day along with four of his friends in a car accident in Missouri. April of that year my husband and our family were stationed to Germany. We didn’t get to see Brian before he passed away. I will never forget the day Brian passed. Christmas afternoon I became very depressed. I didn’t know what was wrong with me and had a hard time snapping myself out of it. A couple hours later my mom called to wish us a Merry Christmas. During the conversation she said she was worried about Brian, that he hadn’t come home the night before. Brian was only 21 years old; very young, so I told mom he probably spent the night at a friend’s home. She said that is just not like Brian. Mom had made phone calls to Brian’s friends and they all said nothing except for one. The lady my mom spoke to said that her son had been killed last night. During our conversation mom didn’t tell me these things. We hung up. Twenty minutes later she called back. Brian is dead. Oh my God! That’s not possible! I was in shock and didn’t know what to do. My husband Dave got on the phone and told my mom that he would get me on the next plane to Missouri. The next morning I was putting on my make up getting ready to leave and had the radio on a German station. A song came on that I had never heard before. I knew it was a message from Brian because I never heard it again. The song said, “Don’t worry little sister, I’m ok. Even though I’m dead and gone, I’m ok. Don’t cry little sister, don’t cry shortie.” I couldn’t move! All I could do is sit there and cry. I am twelve years older than Brian, but he did call me those names teasingly because I am only 5’3” and he was at least 6 feet tall. I always had motherly feelings for Brian since I helped so much to take care of him when he was little.

The trip home was extremely long; I cried the whole way there. Family flew in from all over. I stayed for two weeks, but wish it had only been one. I felt like I needed to be strong while my mother grieved. So far I had only had the flight back to Missouri to grieve. All I wanted to do was go home and put my arms around my own two sons and let them know how much I loved them.

That day finally came. So did the grief. I cried and cried, yelled at God, felt guilt; if only I had gone home for Christmas, Brian wouldn’t have gone out with his friends. He would have wanted to stay home and visit with me. There were many “if only’s”. I couldn’t believe our Brian was gone. My poor husband and children didn’t know what to do with me. My husband likes to “fix” things that upset me and I’m sure it was a horrible feeling for him to not be able to help my pain.

Little did I know the day Brian passed away my life was transformed forever. My path would never be the same. I began reading book after book about mediums, what happens after we die, how to communicate with spirits, what is reincarnation, etc. At that time James Van Praagh had just written his first book. Sylvia Browne had only two books out. I read them all and couldn’t wait for more! I read books by Brian Weiss. I found that Brian Weiss had a meditation CD. I immediately ordered it. While listening to the CD I met my guide for the first time. I laid in bed with tears running down my face. I felt so much love for this man; my guide; it was like I had known him forever but had forgotten him.

I had known most of my life I had some psychic abilities but didn’t know who to talk to about them or how to develop them. Not long after Brian passed strange things began happening. I would think of an aquaintence I had met only one time then see them in the store that day. Similar things began happening. I would walk from our living room into the kitchen and see someone out of the corner of my eye. Startled, I would turn and see nothing. I began saying hello to my brother Brian. I knew it was him.

After reading hundreds of books and visiting psychic medium chat rooms, I did my first reading! My whole belief system that I had been taught as a child went right down the drain. I was transformed into a new person. I became more spiritual, less judgemental and finally realized we are all one – all one with God, not separate! I realized God’s love for us is unconditional, that he’s not a man sitting in heaven ready to judge us. There is no wrong in God’s eyes. He loves us all no matter what.

I had always had jobs that I didn’t love, or even like. I worked for the paycheck. In the year 2002 I made the decision that my path is to help others. Making that decision was not easy, but I knew I wouldn’t be truly happy with a career until I followed the path I was meant to be on. I am now a psychic medium and healer. I help people connect with their passed loved ones on the other side. The feeling I receive by helping other people through the same grief I had and connecting them with their passed loved ones is phenomenal. This is my true path; what I came to this earth for. I will never be the same person I was before Brian passed. I know he is ok and even helps me. Everything happens for a reason, even the passing of our nearest and dearest loved ones. It’s hard to comprehend why such a young life is taken, but there is a reason. Brian is still by my side and always will be.

Beth,
What an amazing story!
Thank you for sharing that!

OK here's our words of wisdom on love. (and showing your love)

On July 4th 2007 My wife Yvonne and I were packing to drive from Florida to visit relatives in Michigan.

The evening before, our 22 year old son Paul sat with us and we had a wonderful talk. He was happy and upbeat and when we told him we would see him in several weeks, he insisted we wake him in the morning to get a hug goodbye. I initially said no because it was too early but he insisted and we're eternally grateful for that. Paul died several hours later. So the last time we saw our Paul, we got a hug from him and exchanged "love you" and goodbyes.

It is a special gift we got that morning. I'm glad that our family has been in a habit of doing this since the kids were little.

So the moral of this story .... "Tell someone close that you love them and don't be afraid to give them a hug just for the heck of it"

In Memory of Paul

Lisa,

As always I love reading your blog.
I have alot of questions and would love to sit down with you for a few hours just to ask spiritual questions.
I love your energy and I respect your knowledge and wisdom. With that being said I have been on a spiritual search, I am trying to connect to God and having that inner connection to receive answers. I have been looking in a lot of places but one thing that is driving me nuts is scriptures in the bible that states " the dead is concious of nothing" ecl: 9:5 - there are many scriptures that indicate that there is no life after death, that after armegedon people will be resurrected and have the possiblity of living forever here on earth and that is God's plan and was in the beginning for people to live on earth and angels in the heavens.
Please help me clarify this - I am totally confused. I think what you do is a beautiful loving thing - please give me your thoughts and opinions. Why does all this spiritual stuff have to be so complex?
I have had many experiences myself as I have said before in previous messages, some have been evil and some I do not feel as a threat at all -
Why is there such a contridiction in what the bible says and what comes naturally to some????

Lisa,

I so much wish that I would have let my father know how much I loved him before he passed. I caught your show for the very first time a couple of days ago, and I was in tears before it was over. My father was so afraid to die, and I often wonder if he is still scared. I so much hope that he is free from pain.

Your show gave me hope that he is, indeed, still with me. Thank you for sharing your gift.

Amy

Hi Lisa
I'm from Belgium, and have been seeing your show on tv.
I love to read your daily blog.

Good Morning Lisa, I wanted to write you this morning to ask you to reach out to Beth Holloway - Natalee Holloway's Mom. She was on Oprah yesterday speaking about her daughter and while I was watching the show, your name kept popping into my head. I've seen every single show that you've done on Lifetime and the information that you provide to grieving families is so very helpful to their healing process. Beth was incredibly composed and strong, and told Oprah that the hardest part of this whole thing is the 'not knowing'. I just know that if anyone can help her and give her the answers that she is looking for, you can!

I prayed last night that she would be open to getting a reading from you (or other gifted mediums). I also prayed that if there is anyway for you two to connect, that it would happen.

Lots of Love!
Amy from Ohio

Dear Lisa:

So strange to read "Amy from Ohio"'s comment about the possibility of maybe you giving a reading to Beth Holloway. I was thinking the same thing...have you ever considered the possibility of working with the Police on a local level or the FBI on a more wide-scale level to help people find loved-ones? Or solve crimes? I think the magnitude of your assistance in crime-solving would be astounding.

Another question...have you ever tried to connect with/speak to an unborn fetus, while still in utero? I have a friend who used to be able to talk with her own unborn child...the fetus would tell her what it wanted to eat, would tell her when to "slow down", or when to 'take a nice walk outdoors". It was uncanny.

Thanks,
Donna

Dearest Lisa,
I didn't see the Oprah show as some of these folks did, but it occurred to me that Oprah could give you a show! This is what she does!
Books and shows. Oprah is a very spiritual person and look what she has done for Rachael Ray! I don't care for Rachael Ray's show, but I KNOW we'd all watch YOU!!!
Get your people in touch with Oprah's....make us all happy!
Much love to you, Kev and Charlie

Holy Cow! You all have the right ideas! Ok, so Oprah just announced that she's starting the Oprah Winfey Network (OWN). Lisa Show would be perfect for this network!

I'm writing Oprah asap.

We will find a way to get Lisa back on the air if it kills us :)

- Amy from Ohio

Hi Lisa,
WOW Cynthia and Amy hit it on the nose. I remember when I found out that your show was cancelled, my first thought was that there was another, much bigger gig for you on the horizon, I felt it and this could be it. You know what I feel from you Lisa, I feel "real" unconditional love. It is an energy that is so healing and you have that energy coming from you which is exactly why you need a show...not a little show, but a BIG show. This is how I feel and now that I"ve read cynthia and Amy's blog, they get it too. I think this is a great time of awakening on the planet and that is why there is so much interest in spiritiual things like the work you do, John Edwards, shirley McClain, James Van Praugh (Loved Larry King with you guys on it), etc...its about love now, and its love that will solve the issues and problems in the country and the world. I will support you in any way I can, so like Amy, I'm writing Oprah as soon as I finish this. Hope you and your family are having a great 2008 & take good care, and thank you for opening your heart so much.

I want to thank you for this, I really feel that it was directed at me. For various reasons I have broken away from most of my family and have been having a hard time with it lately. Wondering if my decisions were right. I still care for and love most of them but don't need the added stress in my life that they bring.

I wanted to ask a question and see if Lisa or any one else had any ideas on a solution to my problem. I think I have spirits in my house that have not moved on. I knew when I first moved in here that something about one of the rooms did not feel right, but I also did not begin feeling threatened or frightened by it up until recently. A while back, one of my doors opened all on its own. This is a door that I have to use my whole body to open, there is no way a draft or anything else can cause it to accidentally open. After that, my baby started acting weird in the room, and then one of the spirits called out my name in a voice very similar to my friend's daughter's. Recently things are getting worse. When one of my friends was over a few weeks ago, the door opened again on its own. There has been an increasing amount of odd things happening in the house, specifically centered around that room, such as the doors opening and now CLOSING themselves as well (it will click open, and then close and click shut again) and lights turning themselves off (not just burning out, but turning off from the actual light switch being turned off). There is no way an animal or another person could be causing any of this. I have burned sage, and have asked the spirits to go away, yet they are becoming more active and upset than ever. It seems the more I try to ignore them, the worse things get. Does anyone have any suggestions? I really feel like there are several trapped in that room, that are trying to communicate something.
