She has some very good cd's that I've read. Her workshops seem a bit expensive to me, however she does speak as a guest of hay house in vegas called the You can do it something or other. I have heard it is very good, with some very good speakers. Definately worth looking into.

She also has a radioshow on hayhouse radio that I've enjoyed listening to. Good luck on your path to healing with the angels, get ready for your life to change!

While I do not believe in the winged verson depicted in pictures, I know for a fact that there are supernatural forces which look over us and protect us. I have had several experiences in which I would have died without such intervention. The latest one involved a runaway driverless truck headed downhill directly toward me. It had a covered bed and I could not tell that it was driverless, so made no effort to get out of the way. At the last moment, it made an impossible 90 degree turn up a slope, and settled gently into a stream bed. The front of the truck stayed level until the back had cleared the shoulder of the road then settled gently into a stream bed. It was only at that point that I saw there was no driver. I have replayed that incident in my mind and there was no way the thing could have played out naturally. I do have a gaurdian Angel and she works overtime.

Maybe that truck did have a driver. An invisible one...

I too have had a close call, wherein I would have certainly died without intervention of angels. I too experienced an impossible instantaneous 90 degree turn (my snowmachine), preventing me from driving over a cliff/precipace to a rocky gorge some 300 feet below...

I always believed angels could be true (no matter what they're called). Messengers of a higher power could be real. In The Bible, I don't think they are said to have wings, so that part we hear about angels (wings) could be made-up. But angels are simply spirits; though high in rank.

I think angels do exist and other types of benovolent spirits, but what about all of the truly horrible things that happen to people, animals, countries etc. Where were their angels or guardians?? I think it gets very simplistic to say that we're always covered by an angel--too many things point otherwise.
It's better to believe in good things, protective, etc. but it doesn't reconcile with the multitudes of beyond difficult things that happen to people.

BudinAk, The way that truck gently settled down into that stream bed, it was like something picked it up and gently placed it there. Thanks for your post. Now I don't feel like such a nut for admitting what happened to me. Phoenix Lady, Perhaps our gaurdian Angels are only permitted to intervene in certain circumstances. It could be that some of the bad things MUST happen in order to fill in a larger plan which we can not understand. I don't know, but you had better beleive that I give my GA special thanks every night.

Wouldnt asking/praying to the angels for strength, wisdom, whatever be construed as angel worship--thus a sin by the 10 commandments?

I never "pray" to or ask my GA for anything. I simply thank her for helping me get through another day. I do not believe in your bible, so your sin and your 10 commandments mean nothing to me. To me my angel is a force which I cannot know or understand. I only call her an angel because I do not know what else to call her.
