1. 10 Top Tips for a Paranormal New Year by Petrene Soames

If you are tired of having an "OK" year, and once again it promises to be usual, normal or even a boring one, here's how to wake up, get tuned in, and experience all of those things that you only dreamed of. Remember, wealth, health and happiness are waiting to happen.

1. Understand time. Stop wearing your watch.

Give yourself the gift of time and get in touch with your own natural balance and flow. Stop wearing a watch for at least two weeks, and take ten minutes each day to sit and be still with yourself. Get comfortable. Close your eyes. Breathe deeply from the bottom of your stomach. Let your thoughts come and go. Soon you will become in touch with you and your own speed. You need to do this if you want to start consciously creating your own reality. Use time to notice things and develop your awareness.

2. Accept the powerful being that you are, and know that you never make mistakes.

Start liking and believing in yourself. Every day repeat: "I am a free and powerful being". When others don't give you what you want, give it to yourself. Stop trying to be perfect. You already are. You have inside of you everything that you need to have a wonderful life. So start letting it out.

3. Make space for the new, unexpected and amazing.

Give away, throw away or sell everything that you no longer need, or that's broken. Clean out clutter. Be tough! By doing this you will make room not only in your house, but also in your life for the new and amazing to happen. Clear out clutter regularly. This is the start of something big.

4. Decide to see auras and view life clairvoyantly.

Stop trying to see auras and colors and start thinking in color. Ask yourself often what colors are people around you being. Really look. As you start to think in color, it's only a matter of time before you start seeing in color. Make a point of looking at people and objects as if for the very first time. Clairvoyance (clear seeing) will follow.

5. Get to know yourself, your body and use your abilities to self-heal.

What is your body trying to tell you? Listen to your body and believe in your own answers. Use simple exercises like the ones in The Essence of Self-Healing and repeat every day: "My body heals, clears and balances itself". Stay fit and active. Always treat your body in the best possible ways. Self-healing means know how and self-belief. Start believing in yourself.

6. Create your reality; make things happen. Who needs predictions?

To make things happen, see yourself having all that you want and need. Know without any doubt that you do deserve these things, and that life is not meant to be a struggle. Repeat each day: "I draw easily to myself all that I need." Firmly decide that there is no room for pain in your life. Allow yourself to dream and daydream, and know that you can and do make things happen. If your zodiac sign horoscope predicts a bad day, go for the best predictions and be another zodiac sign for the day.

7. Realize that nothing is ever only as it seems.

There is no such thing as good or bad luck. These are only expressions for a reality and series of events that you have not studied yet and understood why things happened as they did. Start to examine without becoming paranoid even the smallest events in your life and notice how one connects with another. You will be amazed at the perfectness of everything. Even traumatic or negative situations contain real positives for everyone. Decide to look at all situations from many different angles.

8. Meet the alien in yourself and others.

Move away from a limited and fixed reality viewpoint and start to see the alien in yourself and others. Sit facing a mirror with soft lighting. Relax. Breathe deeply. Simply look into the reflection of your eyes. See how your own face will begin to shape-shift or even disappear. At some point, you will see the part of you that is alien. As you get used to viewing in this way, you'll be able to do this automatically with others just by looking, without a mirror. You can perceive all that they ever have been and have yet to become as well as the alien. Use this exercise twice a week for 10 to 30 minutes.

9. Start contacting loved ones who have passed on. Time travel is simple.

You have the abilities to contact those who have passed on. Death is not an end, or a barrier to communication. Stop letting your fear and doubts veil the process. Sit opposite an empty chair while holding a picture or articles belonging to the person you want to contact. Imagine that your mind is wide open. Talk to the departed as if they were here and be open to receiving thoughts or pictures from them in your mind. Practice, practice…

10. Find simple ways not to get stuck, caught up, and bogged down

Learn how to let go. Remember that you are a dynamic, constantly moving, changing, unique and multi-dimensional being. Each day can be amazing. You need to let go on a regular basis. Repeat each day: "I am letting go of everything I no longer need". And mean it. Lay on the floor on your stomach. Imagine that stress, tension, and unwanted thoughts and feelings are washing away from you like a flowing river. Use this exercise at the end of each day. It takes 10 minutes and will positively change your life.

If you follow these tips, you'll be amazed of what the Paranormal New Year will bring you.

Note from the editor:

My personal 11th tip is: Develop your psychic (and healing) abilities.

"Developing your own psychic abilities, healing skills and awareness is a lot simpler than you may have realized. There has been a lot of mystery surrounding ESP and the healer within. Unfortunately many psychics and mystics throughout time have allowed the layperson to believe that "ESP" is a gift and belong to only a few. This is not true. The "paranormal" is in fact very normal and is an everyday part of all of us". Petrene Soames, author of The Essence of Self-Healing.

2. Milk… A few comments from PETA newsletter

For those unfamiliar with PETA [People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals], let's just say that PETA is THE organization that does more worldwide for animal rights than any other anywhere. As members of their organization, we receive their Animal Times newsletter. This month, I'd like to pass on to you a few quotes from there:

"After studying the diets of 78,000 women over a 12-year period, researchers at Harvard University concluded that milk does not protect against bone fractures, because milk's high-protein content leaches calcium from the bones. Women who drank three glasses of milk per day had more fractures than those who rarely drank milk!"

"In children, drinking milk is linked to ear infections, asthma, autism, intestinal bleeding and juvenile diabetes, a disease that can cause blindness. In the seventh edition of his world-famous 'Baby and Child Care', America's most respected pediatrician, the late Dr. Benjamin Spock, recommends that parents raise their children on a Vegan diet."

"Not long ago, it took four months for a dairy cow to produce her own weight in milk… Now some cows who have been injected with bovine growth hormone produce their own weight in milk every eight days." John Robbins, who renounced his Baskin-Robbins inheritance.

PETA opened a web side with more information on milk at MilkSucks.com.

Extract from The Essence of Self-Healing:

"We give power away to the degree that we believe that there are other people who know better than we do about what is right for us. You may argue that the professionals we consult are educated in specific areas, and we accept their advice because we believe they know better than we do. These people are supposed to have knowledge and experience that we do not possess. Yes, there is a degree of truth in this. But we have now reached the point where we take vitamins, herbs, medication, and even accept surgery that we do not totally understand or necessarily need, because we are told that it is right for us to do so. We go along with this despite the fact that many mistakes are made by those who are in charge.

Millions of patients are taking cocktails of medications which they know little, if anything, about. One of my case studies includes an elderly couple who carried a bag of different pills and medications that they had been taking for so long they had both forgotten what they were prescribed for in the first place. They had no idea what was working and what was not. This was blind faith, to say the least. " Petrene Soames, The Essence of Self-Healing (page 15).

3. Vegan recipe: Spaghetti with Meatless Ball tomato sauce…

All the ingredients listed below should be easy to find. Take the recipe as a base, and use your imagination to make it even better! This recipe is so GoooOOOOD!

You need...

• Spaghetti cooked "al dente", meaning slightly firm.
• 1 pound of fresh tomatoes (diced with juice) or 1 can (28oz) of Diced tomatoes
• 1 pack of 2 Lightlife Light burgers. (lightlife.com)
• Garlic (quite a lot)
• 1 large onion
• 1 or 2 yellow squash (cut in small pieces)
• 1 cup of carrots (finely chopped) (I use baby carrots).
• Olive oil
• Salt and pepper
• Herbs (I use a special blend from France but you can make your own using your favorite "green" herbs such as oregano, thyme, sage, rosemary… Be creative!)
• 2 or 3 tablespoon of vinegar (I like red wine vinegar)
• 2 or 3 tablespoons of India Relish (some kind of pickles - Optional) or a handful of "cornichons" (gherkins) or both.
• 1 tablespoon of corn starch (or more if sauce get very "watery")

Putting everything together...

But first a few words on the meatless burgers. Petrene and I rarely eat tofu products, mainly because we don't like tofu. But these burgers are just fantastic. They have a grill flavor and a great texture for this kind of recipe. We buy those in packs of two, not frozen. I also found them in packs of six frozen but I don't like their texture. So I recommend the other ones. You might also want to use your favorite veggie burgers as long as they have a texture that lets you make small balls with them. Cut the Lightlife burgers in 8 pieces each and make small balls. You'll get a total of 16 meatless balls.

• Fry garlic and onion, low heat for about 5 minutes.
• Add carrots and keep frying them with the garlic and onions for 3 or 4 minutes.
• Add the "meatless balls". Keep it low heat and stir occasionally for another 3 or 4 minutes.
• Now add the diced tomatoes, bring to a boil and then cover and simmer for 5 minutes.
• Add the yellow squash, cover and keep simmering for another 2 or 3 minutes. If mixture is too thick, add some water (not too much!) and let simmer for another few minutes.
• Add the India Relish, the cornichons and the vinegar and let simmer (covered) for 3 or 4 minutes.
• Add your salt, pepper and herbs, stir for a minute then add the cornstarch (previously mixed with 3 or 4 tablespoon of cold water). Let simmer uncovered for another 2 or 3 minutes.

You are ready! The idea is to have the carrots and squash slightly crunchy. Serve with garlic bread… Yummy!

Note from Etal: I say double the quantities and invite the neighbors… A great way to get them into vegetarianism!
