Frequently Asked Questions

Please find an expansive quality in yourself in response to the words here, rather than seizing on them in a narrow way. When words are telepathic keys, communication is easy. When communication is difficult, these pathways aren't well established yet. The same words can mean different things to different people, probably because of emotional associations and imprints. As time goes on, these answers could expand or change. The key is to find how the answer resonates in you.

Q: Are you writing any more books?

A: I'm working on a version of Right Use of Will that can be read by anyone, because it will not emphasize the spiritual/reincarnation aspect.  It will take a psychological, social, common sense approach.  It will also contain information not in Right Use of Will. It is titled Feelings Matter. I also may make some spoken word CD's.  

Q I have read all your books. What else can I read?

A: There are so many books I could recommend, but really, you can see this information in anything and anywhere.   Right now I'll recommend  The Field, The Betrayal Bond, Soul Recovery and Extraction, A General Theory of Love, Controlling People, Crucial Conversations, The Dance of Anger, Living Water and Messages From Water. With almost everything I read, I add in the piece of the picture Right Use of Will has to offer.

Q: I am afraid that if I let my emotions come up, they'll take over, and I will be destroyed or I'll destroy others.

A: This is a common fear and an old judgment on the emotional body. I suggest letting your emotions come up and be expressed first with yourself in a safe place.  If fear of this is strong, start with letting yourself feel the fear, give the fear what expression you can and see what it has to teach you. Emotions can teach us much.  They are not something to just "manage."  Release whatever judgments against expressing your emotions that you feel ready to release and proceed at the pace you can handle.

 Suppressing emotions can cause body blockage, illness and even DNA damage. Forcing emotions to express can cause depletion. Holding them down can cause explosive behavior. Let them up in a private, safe place until you feel comfortable letting them express without having to build up to the point where they burst past your controls or make you feel sick. Don't overdo it. Please don't use emotions as an excuse to verbally attack, dump on or overrun another in the name of emotional movement. Don't use honesty as a weapon, because the words are not the direct expression of the emotion. Go for the sounds. Movement may cause your words to shift.

Keep a balance with the other aspects of your life. If feeling or expressing your emotions is really too overwhelming, you could have buried trauma.  You might also need to suspect an underlying physiological cause for this. Seek help from friends, family, counselors, doctors, health practitioners or other information sources. You can do this without giving yourself away to them.

Q: If I have any emotions, my counselor thinks it's depression.

A: Many people do not understand the emotional body very well.  However, depression can result from not expressing your emotions. Not expressing could make a person feel powerless and hopeless plus unacceptable.  Even counselors may not understand emotions sufficiently. Try finding another counselor and interview them first.  Also again, don't overlook the possibility that there may be physiological causes for, not only depression, but intense, repetitive or imbalanced emotions.  Problems can be caused by many things such as an accumulation of environmental toxins and nutritional lacks.  Chronic physical pain can also cause depression over time because it depletes serotonin.  Drugs are not the only avenue available. I suggest exploring your body Ph and nutrition, especially essential fatty acids, B-vitamins and minerals.  There is a book called Natural Highs that has much to say on this subject. Also a holistic MD could be very helpful, especially if you need some tests to check for physiological causes.

Q: I was on the RUOW mailing list. What happened to it?

A. The list became too cumbersome and some used it for purposes of solicitations etc. and so, it was disbanded.

Q: How do I get my emotions in motion?

A. One way is to try to pick up the thread where it was severed or knotted from infancy to adulthood. Try risking making some sounds to see if your emotions are repressed from conditioning about how you are allowed to express yourself. Even if you think you sound terrible, frightening or like a dork, risk it. There’s not a down side I can think of to allowing yourself more spontaneity if you do it in a private place. If it increases your self-hatred give that expression until it turns into compassion and love.

If you suspect your emotional blockage could be from trauma, try parenting yourself to let the trauma express a little at a time. If it is too much, get the help you need.

Q: How do I meet other people who read these books?

A: Make emotions a part of your expression and a part of your life and you will find out where people around you are with that. I think that as you vibrate your own emotional body with more love and acceptance for it, you will increase your magnetic energy and more easily find kindred spirits. If expressing emotions is bringing you negative reflections from those around you, spend more time expressing them in private so that you have less backed up old charge when you relate to others. Some may need some time to adjust to a changing you. You might be surprised at how things could shift but, if necessary, make new friends who like your increasing spontaneity.

You can still send an SASE to Four Winds and we will save the letters and mail them back out with a few names in them from time to time. The way that works is that whatever names you get, they will have other names.  You can also e-mail Four Winds Books and give permission for your name to be given to others.

Q I release and release judgments and I don't seem to get any shift:

A: There may be other judgments underneath that you need to get to. There may be overlooked emotions holding onto judgments. It may be a deep judgment that needs repeated releases. Also, is there an emotional engagement when you release the judgment? In addition to the mental process of saying the words, express the sounds that connect you to the place in your emotional body that holds these judgments.  If the judgments surface on a wave of emotion and are released then, I think it is a more powerful release so don't forget the introspection and insight part of this.  You may have some personal responsibility you are overlooking in your point of view and perhaps, then, some unrealistic expectations of what things you think should change.

The books are a general story. Your own personal experience is where your process needs to be centered. What is stirred in you by reading these books?

Q. Can I meet you?

A. I prefer to live a quiet life and work on my own healing processes, of which I have plenty. You can write me at Four Winds Publications, 55l Cordova Rd. , #112, Santa Fe , New Mexico , 87505 . I cannot promise to respond, though an SASE increases your chances.

Q. I've written to you, how come you didn’t respond?

A. There could be numerous reasons. Volume of mail is one reason. My own life circumstances is another. I respond when I can. Sending an SASE helps.

Q. How did you come to channel the books? 

A. After taking an herbalist class, I was trying to make sense of things, especially in the area of physical challenges. I wondered why one person had a stomach problem, another person had a foot problem, and another a back problem. I had been meditating for many years and my mind could become silent at times. I began to hear what seemed like possible answers to questions during some of those silent times. Sometimes the answers were outside the parameters we normally consider to be this life. I tried out the information and found it was usually helpful. If not, I would seek further and try to find out what I might have overlooked or misunderstood.

One question led to another. Unraveling questions often involved going backwards. I followed the threads, fascinated, backwards through past lives to Atlantis, Lemuria and Pan. I then came upon Original Cause and discovered Imprinting. It probably could have happened another way since the imprinting is right here in our subconscious, but that is the way it happened for me. The impressions that appeared in my mind were often complex, sort of like spheres with tangencies to other spheres. Often, they just appeared all at once. The information seemed beyond the scope of linear words. I was then guided by word impressions that I could write down.  Through quite a process with my fear and doubt, I came to trust that this was God.  Always the feeling of love was strongly present. I began opening to the unfolding of layers hidden in my emotional body. The progression has had a wisdom to it. This path has been a fascinating path of self discovery, albeit, not free of what is involved in embracing long denied parts of self. Do remember that a lot of what is said is to surface judgment/belief patterns and is not necessarily what you will come to in time as you evolve.

Writing these books has not been easy and smooth... like whatever's told to me, I just accept it. When I started to write down what I was hearing, I didn't know it would turn into all these books. It hasn't been just a smooth glide. It involved a lot of fearing, doubting, personal processing, questioning and dialoguing with what I was hearing. That's part of Free will, isn't it, not to just swallow whatever we're told?

Q. What about translating these books into foreign languages?

A. There are translations in Italian, German, Hebrew, Spanish and French. I haven't found them to sell well. I think the reason is that I was able to speak directly to the pulse of my own country and the translations don't speak directly to the pulse of those people.

Q. What if I am too messed up--what do I do?

A. I suggest releasing the judgments involved in that view of yourself, along with doing what you can do. You can be messed up and still try. You can feel emotionally paralyzed and carry that part along with the part of yourself that can function. The more functional parts of your self can parent the less functional parts of your self. Parent lovingly, with compassion and understanding. Be receptive. Question the voice that is berating, even scathing, critical and punitive. Ask it what wisdom, advice and guidance it has to offer. See what happens when you do that.

Also remember that you don't have to have help, but you can get help without losing yourself. Seek until you find the help that is right for you. Believe you deserve help and healing. Emotional movement can do a lot, but we also have physical bodies that have physical needs. No one part of us can do it all. While my books focus on a neglected part of the self, the Will still must balance with Spirit, Heart and Body.  Seek help from Spirit and Heart.  Will trying to do this alone is no more balanced than Spirit trying to do it without Will. 

Q. I am noticing I have a lot of splits in my personality. How do I heal this?

A. Some of the other questions might have helped you. You can also read up on brain chemistry and alternative healing with nutrition, trace minerals etc. Don't challenge yourself to do it all emotionally.  Use an integrated approach.  Work on being interactive with the various parts of yourself. They probably don't split off unless there is lack of acceptance and/or trauma. You may want help with trauma. There is a lot of help available in many forms in the world today. If you can't seek it for yourself see if there is someone who will help you seek.  
 
Q.  I'm trying to reclaim lost Will and I'm not sure I know how.
 A. Reclaiming lost Will is similar to the concept of what you dislike in others you dislike in yourself, but in addition to the mental recognition of these things there is also attention given to the emotional aspects of it.  Your recognition of it may come first as an emotional response to something.  Instead of talking yourself out of those feelings, give them expression as sound, breath and maybe also body movement. Remember that what you experience of others is a picture of your judgments about it. Also remember that the reflections triggering you can involve projections on your part. For example, if you banished your anger with, among other judgments, the judgment that anger is destructive, you will be triggered by any anger that appears to you to be destructive.  This is not necessarily the essence of the anger.

    Your television can provide you with lots of triggers in the safety of your own home. Giving expression to your emotions with sound creates a vibration that makes a space, a magnetic receptor site, for whatever essence involvement is yours.  As you move along and understand it, it is going to be drawn back to you if that is its right place. 

    For the purposes of lost Will recovery, you can allow yourself to go into any emotions that are triggered, remembering that this is not the same as acting them out.  You will gain understandings if you express the emotions and remember you are responding to your picture of whatever this is.  If you pay close attention to your inner-self during this process you will gain understandings.  There is a book that might help entitled Soul Recovery and Extraction.
  
Q. How can I ground myself?
A. I suggest surrounding and protecting yourself with loving light by asking for it, and also grounding yourself in nature. Actually put your bare feet on the earth in as non-toxic a place as possible. It was recently shown in a study that emotional vibration that has love in it can overcome many problems including electromagnetic problems. Insomnia has even been helped by standing barefoot on the earth before bed.

Q  How do I deal with my gaps? Also, gaps with others?

A: This is a complex question, covered in detail in the books. Gaps are a spectrum from mild to so severe that what you say and do is not remembered later. Your gap will make itself known as you become ready by getting more vibration of loving light into your emotions that are surfacing.  Don't rush to go there before you are ready because intense things may happen that way that you will regret. Get to know your gap and the parts of it being reflected to you by others by paying attention to what you don't want to hear from parts of yourself or someone else; especially what you have deemed threatening, unacceptable and unlovable.  Check your imprinting. You may have domination, control, competition and survival hooked up together in a way that events in your life are being read as survival threats. Your gap will make itself known when you have accumulated enough personal power by getting more loving light into the emotions

Q: One of the biggest pains in my life is in my personal relationship. How do I deal with the gap with my mate?

A. Again, the books may help. Work on yourself.  Change the way you are relating and the other person will probably have to shift also when you don't participate anymore in the old fights.  If the discord outweighs the love for so long that exasperation, resentment and judgment are the prominent parts of your consciousness, if movement of emotions is not making a shift in the rifts sufficient to give hope, if your partner does not seem growth oriented, if you cannot feel at ease with your situation and want to pressure for more personal growth in your partner and these feelings are continual, it may need to be resolved with a partner switch. I think it's a matter of personal choice where to draw the line between continuing to try to work things out and changing the people to whom you are relating.

Q. I'd like to try the path of emotional movement but I've heard and read so much about "negative" emotions and how damaging they are that I'm not sure if I want to get into this. It might drag me down, damage me, or I could get permanently stuck in these so called "negative" emotions.

A. There is much information out there that says "negative" emotions are bad, don't allow them, they're harmful etc. I used to react with anger to these kinds of statements. When I let my anger express I realized I felt like emotions were being blamed. I was in a real dilemma of confusion with myself. I judged myself for having "negative" emotions. This compounded the problem.

It didn't occur to me until I received this channeling that there was a path of evolution for emotions. Acceptance for these emotions could play quite a role in how their energy affects things. Expectations of those conducting experiments and studies are known to affect outcome. What is your intent really?

Direct expression of emotions through the sounds they want to make can help them evolve quite a bit. When something is suppressed, imprisoned or banished, what does it do then?

Remember that the purpose of this is to evolve ourselves as spiritual beings. Bringing these emotions within love can increase the energy field of good and loving vibes. I believe that is what all the discussion about emotions is really seeking, and so I don't feel so angry anymore. I continue to give this a try as what I call a social experiment similar to the ways I have tried other things to see how they work out. While you may very well go down, it is a very worthy place to go.  Even if you need to "wallow" you can find your intent.  Is it to bring those parts of yourself up into more love and light?  The key is to bring these “negative” emotions up rather than have them take you down permanently. Parent these emotions. What kind of parent are you going to be to yourself?

Q. I have questions that weren't covered here. What then?
