Hi, Everyone,
I think by now most of you know that I do retrievals standing, so I never go out of body.  I follow Bruce's instruction about intent and imagination to get me started. Once at 'my place', I call for helpers and fill with love.

I do know that to do an accurate retrieval I must clear my mind of all expectations, memories, or imaginings.  It is one of the hardest things about a retrieval for me...  Trying to keep my mind clear until I arrive where the soul is... to just be.  You are right, Vicky.  Love is all important.  I start every retrieval with gathering love from all my loved ones who have passed over including my pets because if there is unconditional love anywhere, it is from our pets.  If my mind starts to slip, love can become the focus and bring me back to that state of non-thought.  I also work with helpers from the other side and rely on their guidance.  We work as a team.  I need them and they need me. 

When we reach the area of the soul, I 'know', and start to look for the place where the soul is trapped.  It is at that time I can 'see' the circumstances the soul is in, but I have to start all of that with a blank mind...only love.  I then concentrate on the soul giving the love I have gathered and trying to stay calm no matter what the circumstances are.  Some souls can create horrific hells.  Some can create quite lovely places to rest, or in the places of children to play or hide.  But love is always the key.  I don't think I could do any of this without all that love.  But my intent is always to retrieve a soul or souls.  My helpers show me which ones.

I don't know if this helps or is even understandable, but it is what works for me.
Sending you love,
T'ressa

I also struggle with clearing my mind.  It’s one of the hardest things for me too.  Bruce always would tell me that I NEED to be meditating every single day to be in good practice of being able to clear my mind and focus my attention.  I definitely don’t do enough of that kind of practice!

I'll do it!  I'm in Mountain Time.  I'll have time Thursday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday.  I'd like to focus for about 10-15 minutes at a time.

Oh, my, you have been busy since last I was on this site.  My computer was wiped out by one of the big mid-west storms two weeks ago, and I just got back on line. 

I love the experiment you came up with.  Being filled with unconditional love feels wonderful whether it fills you or washes over you.  It is like being touched by the softest, most comfortable thing in the world and wraps your heart in joy...at least that is what it is for me.  I'm so glad it worked for you.

Soulmael, one of the ways I use to keep from falling for or believing the soul's hell is always to remember I can create as well.  I also remember I filled with love before I started the retrieval and can call upon it as a sort of 'bubble of protection'.  I usually use creation to 'see' things 'not there'.  I learned that from Bruce.  I also learned along the way somewhere that fear and love can't co-exist.  Those few things have been of great help when faced with some horrific sights on a retrieval.  I'm not a very brave person so am very grateful for what I've been taught. Continue the lovely experiment.  It can only bring you good things.

Soulmael, thanks so much for the invitation, but I'm very old-fashioned.  I'm not on Facebook.  I don't have a smart phone although I'm thinking over that prospect.  I'm not fond of electronic stuff, and try to stay away from it as much as possible.  The reason being is I love human contact not screen time.  That is me.  I'm well up in years and can be a bit set in my ways.  I don't recommend my ways to anyone else. 

I spend much spare time talking with my guides, and that is all about paying attention to them.

But you can ask me any question on here and I will do my best to answer.  I will tell you outright if I don't know.

Do you know you can send PUL to a single person, a whole family, a town, or the whole world in general?  You can gather it to your heart.  You can ask for it like you did with Vicky.  There are those on the other side who would love to work with you spreading PUL.  I prepare myself to spread it every time I go into a public building or for something to eat.  It gets easier the more you do it.  Add a smile and see what happens.

Oh, yes, I really like the laughter yoga or spreading laughter.  By the way, laughter is pink.  I met a helper on the otherside who brought me laughter and color because I was complaining I couldn't see it. He showed me I could see his. Wasn't that a nice gift?

Soulmael,

Have you tried setting intention to have a dream visit with your guides? 

PS-- I would like to try a PUL exchange again but will wait until I'm over this cough and congestion.  I'm just feeling drained from it and it's hard to focus.  Hopefully T'ressa will join in the meantime

I think that dream of your guide shouting and complaining at you is a manifestation of doubt.  Does some part of you doubt that you can have and experience meeting and having a helpful, loving guide?  From my experience, our guides are always there, always working with us even when we aren't aware of their help, and that they always receive our directed thoughts and requests even if we don't get some direct evidence that they do.  I think that the times when we do get some direct result is when we are truly in a state of emotional need, where our request is coming from the heart, with strong emotion.  Otherwise, I think they leave a lot of things alone because everything is a lesson for us, whether we learn fast or slow. 

Yes, I think there is an energy exchange automatically between sender and receiver, but I also think that either of you may not necessarily experience receiving it automatically or immediately.  For an example, let’s say that I was sending PUL to someone who didn’t know I was sending it.  They may not notice anything, but they still receive it, meaning that I believe it will still give them benefit even if they aren’t aware of it.  Or they may notice it at a later time when they are more primed for receiving, such as while sleeping or upon waking up in the morning.  Or they may just suddenly get a jolt of it during the day at some point.  I think the ways in which it can manifest are many.

You shouldn’t be feeling drained while sending it.  If you feel that way then you’re probably not fully putting your awareness in an area that’s from the heart.  Maybe you’re doing more thinking than feeling. 

What I do is increase the feeling of love (being in a loving mood) as strongly as I can, then hold that feeling for as long as I can, and then when it starts to decrease I allow it to and then I stop. 

What I also like to do is notice a time when I’m feeling naturally happy, in a great mood, loving, and carefree…that’s a great time to decide to send PUL or to use it in some way because I’m already in a higher state of being.  Feeling tired or not your best makes it harder to do but not impossible.  And sometimes just putting myself in a state of feeling PUL when I don’t feel good is a great way to make myself feel better!

Sometimes I direct my thoughts and intention to my higher self or to someone else's higher self.  For other things I will talk directly to my guides.  It just depends on what the situation is or what my intention and feeling is.
