Quotes from Sonia Choquette

By taking the time and making the effort to look his best, he feeds both his spirit and the spirits of those who see him. It's thoughtful. Make yourself a work of art. Express your creativity and dress with style. Style your hair and makeup with care and pizazz. Present yourself to the world as beautifully as you can to feed your spirit and the spirit of others.

Feeding our spirit is not difficult. It's just doing what we love to do and doing it with love. This comes naturally to us. Our egos convince us to do what we truly loathe at times because we need "to survive," which is always the ego's primary focus. When we feed the spirit within, we move far beyond surviving and into thriving. The things that feed our spirit are those that bring the best out in us and turn up our inner light.

Your Turn Whenever you're in doubt or in need of guidance, say aloud: "Let me ask my guides," and then do exactly that. Next, let them answer by saying, "They say [fill in the blank]." Don't worry that you're making things up—just listen to the content and vibration of the words that emerge as you let your inner being speak freely. Practice this for 10 to 15 minutes a day.

Trusting your vibes is an awakening process in which your spirit partners with your body, your ego steps aside and learns, and together they move you directly and swiftly out of harm's way and straight into your very best life. As in any partnership, trust and confidence develop naturally over time, as you get to know one another and make successful decisions together. In other words, the more you allow your spirit to lead your body to success, the more trust will evolve on its own.

The key is to look for ways to silence it without a fight. Start by noticing the times in which your ego naturally quiets down. When working in the garden, for instance. Or cooking dinner. Or on a drive. These are great times to tune in and receive guidance.

As you know, the ego's primary stance is "me against you," so life is reduced to battling to be right and proving that everyone who disagrees with you is a threat that must be eliminated. This is how you know you are stuck in the ego and disconnected from the spirit. As I've said earlier, the ego is consumed with survival, so anyone who doesn't share your point of view becomes an enemy.

Spiritual law says that you receive what you give times 10, so choose to put out bright, loving energy to the world. Despite appearances to the contrary, it will return. The more openhearted you are, the quicker the telepathic reception will be.

Telepathy is the most accessible of our six-sensory skills: Everyone is mentally talking to everyone else all the time, and everyone is tuning in. You're in telepathic chat rooms every second, whether you know it or not. If you pay attention to what crosses your mind, you'll see what I mean.

Note the difference in the quality of thoughts that drift into your awareness as you mentally elevate your airwaves. Also, see if what floats into your awareness adds to the quality of your life. It's pretty simple: If you want inspiration, think inspiring thoughts. If you want to heal, broadcast healing thoughts. If you want to be creative, broadcast creative thoughts. If you want love, broadcast loving thoughts. And if you want to live in a higher way, think higher thoughts.

A key to whether friendship is good is: Who am I being in this connection? Do I like me? (Never mind do I like you!) Am I liking how I'm showing up? Does this feel good to me?

Also, always pray for support and then be open to receiving it. Happily, evolution is prevailing, and six-sensory people are emerging in droves. These days it's becoming less and less difficult to connect with such kindred spirits if you really want to.

We needed to get rid of the belief that we couldn't rest until our work was done. Work is never done.

TV and media create in many people a sense of entitlement to happiness, love and care from others. [...] The problem with this [...] is that we are stuck looking for lovability, worth and our true place in life from other mere mortals. If everyone is looking for it, who has a surplus of love and care to give to fill our need? [...] We must accept that our lovability and worth don't come from others. They come from ourselves!

A storyteller's form of healing [is] being a counselor, and healing people with ideas, with stories and kind, loving guidance.

I offer my dreams as a source of love to the world. In their fulfillment I will bring a message of light to all that I touch.

To live an intuitive life, it helps to clear away everything that prevents you from tuning in to higher vibrations—that is, everything that takes up space or energy but doesn't contribute to your life. This includes unwanted possessions, unfinished business, excess commitments, negative thinking, judgments, mental projections, resentments from the past, and conflicts in the present.

The Camino does pull you into an alternative Universe filled with grace and magic if you are open to it. I'm sure that once he committed to his pilgrimage, he left planet Earth and was in another realm entirely.

Do You Know How to Change the Channel? Try This … One of my favorite tools is "changing the channel." To do so, simply say: "My brain says [fill in the blank] on the subject." Then pause, and follow with: "My heart and inner guide say [fill in the blank] on the subject." This exercise will help you change the channel of your awareness from your mind chatter to the higher frequencies of spirit.

Long before technology started holding our attention hostage for so many hours of the day, people had more time to let their minds wander, rest, daydream, imagine, and tune inward. But unfortunately, electronic gadgets—especially cell phones—steal away this precious inner time and keep us from connecting to our spirit and inner Self more than any other obstacle.

To avoid this "psychic contamination," stay focused and committed to your own priorities and goals. The more defined your aims are, the more likely you will avoid the riffraff and not wander into energy that doesn't belong to you, serve you, or possibly derail you. The stronger your intentions and priorities, the better your intuitive GPS, as well as your energetic boundaries, will become, and the more insulated you'll be from any unwanted influences.

Those among us who have wide-open intuitive channels but no filters to decide what gets in and what gets out can become highly saturated with energy we don't want to experience.

My teacher Dr. Tully said the most powerful thing you can do is nothing. When you relax and step back, you make room for your spirit to step up, step in, and work its magic on your behalf. He taught me that when guidance isn't forthcoming, if you sit still and do nothing but relax for a while, it will show up.
