TRANSCRIPT
[00:00:00] Welcome back to the podcast, Nicole. I looked, I was like, when was it that she was here last? And so I looked it up. And it was basically two years ago was July of 2022. And it's so cool, because in that time, we've become friends. , I didn't know you that well, when you were first on the podcast.
[00:00:21] And I was like, wow, so much has changed. And, We're part of a healer group together, which is really cool. And I love that episode. , I often will recommend it to people because they are going through their awakening journey and people who are maybe opening to their gifts and are scared by them or confused by some other experiences.
[00:00:41] You just had so many good stories and relatable stories on that episode. So I'll put a link for people if they haven't listened to that, because it's one of my favorite episodes. Oh, thank you so much. And yes, it's true. It feels like a lifetime ago. And yet I also didn't realize it was two years ago, because it also feels somewhat recently.
[00:01:01] And in that time period, you and I become such good friends, and I've attended some of your events, you've attended some of mine, and a circle was created of six of us, us sisters, And, so it's been really, really wonderful. And I'm so excited to be invited here to talk about the topic today. Yeah. So now that I, , hang out with you regularly.
[00:01:25] So I know some of the things, , that you're up to. And one of the things that surprised me when you first told me, because you said it with like such glee and excitement. And it's not something that people usually kind of come with that energy towards. I'll just let you say, cause I don't know how you want to language what it is that you've been doing lately that you're excited about.
[00:01:47] Yes. So as a psychic, many psychics have specialties and I have several specialties, which are, I do medical intuition. Also my main specialty is I talk directly with spirit guides and they will give me information for someone guidance for someone. And then, one of my specialty is.
[00:02:05] helping entities or attachments move on. I work with, I say, clearing entities. That can be from clearing someone's body or from their home. So let's start by your definition. I know different people will have different. Definitions. What do you mean by an entity? Yes. So it's a great question.
[00:02:25] I heard someone the other day kept talking about entities and like, wow, how they're talking about is not making sense to me. And I realized their definition of entity. They were just talking about spirits in general. This could be grandma. This can be a guardian angel. This can be anything. And that is a common definition of entity.
[00:02:43] And it's a correct definition for me. When I say entity, I mean low vibrational being. And that has several categories in it. And we can go into that in a bit. And so when I say low vibrational being, it is some being, or for me, sometimes it looks like an energetic blob. Like sometimes they have consciousness.
[00:03:05] Sometimes they don't have consciousness. Sometimes it's more like an amoeba. But we can go into those details just little bit. Okay. And so these beings can attach to us and we can feel depleted, depressed, sad, , be influenced by them. We may be aware of them. We may not be aware of them.
[00:03:25] Entities are very common thing. I don't get scared of them in general. I have had very, very scary experiences with them, certainly, and that has informed me and helped me grow and learn how to work with them. But in general, I don't get scared of them. I think about, Oh, we go outside, we garden, we get dirt on us.
[00:03:45] We get sweaty, our clothes get dirty. This is part of our human experience. We come in, we take a shower, we wash our clothes, we clean off. I think about. Similar to entities, we go out into the world, we're doing our human experience, we're living our life, and sometimes we can get things on us. We go into the grocery store, we get different things, and we can get things on it, and I help people clear them.
[00:04:12] Yeah, there's so much there. , okay. So first of all, when I was thinking about you coming on and we're talking to kind of talk about this, I was thinking about how actually in my hypnosis training,
[00:04:22] and I think it's got overlap. I'm not sure exactly your process. But it is one where we would. Connect with the entity. And we also would call in, loving higher beings often like the archangels and some other ones that work on healing to come and to help it to move on and so forth.
[00:04:40] And for me, when I was in my training, and I did this internship, I had a few of those sessions. But then I never felt called to really focus that way. And so I haven't. But , there were several books that I had read at that time. , one of them I was trying to find before, cause I wanted to look at it, but I can't find it.
[00:04:57] I know it's somewhere in my closet, which is a black hole, which one day it'll pop back up. But, it's kind of a classic one, by this man named William Baldwin. Is that right? Yeah , not one of the Baldwin brothers, Billy Baldwin. Anyway, Millennium Baldwin. It's called, I think spirit releasement and it was a manual for how to do that.
[00:05:16] Anyway, I remember that when I was reading these books at that time, I don't know if it was his book or a different one, but some people believe that like, I don't know, 80, 90 percent of people will have, , attachment at some point in their life. And so when you said it's kind of common, I remember being really weirded out by that when I read that that time and kind of skeptical, but I'm curious as far as how common do you think it is or whether that's like, Oh, everybody's had one at one point in time or , every season, like people get the flu or something, there might be some, I don't know, , what are your thoughts about how prevalent that is?
[00:05:51] Yeah. Well, first of all, I want to say I'm so delighted to hear that in hypnosis training, you had some. Knowledge passed on to you about this. And I also love that you trusted yourself. You're like, actually, I don't feel called to do that. But you had that available to you. And then if you saw, maybe someone needed it, you can send that person on to another practitioner.
[00:06:11] So love that. I think it's incredibly common, especially by how I define it. If someone defines entity as demonic possession, not so common. If someone defines entities as part of the definition is an energetic blob. That you might pick up at Walmart and that you feel depleted by everyone. Everyone gets that sometimes.
[00:06:34] From my perspective. Now, a lot of entities that I work with aren't just energetic blobs. It's not that you're just at work and someone has immense grief or sadness , and it's this bubble of energy and the bubble gets on you somehow we're not going to go into technicalities about it mostly because I don't know technically how it works.
[00:06:57] I just can see it on people, but most of the entities I work with are beings and there's conscious entities and non conscious entities. And I go in with my team of spirit helpers go in. Find the entities. This is done 100 percent on the light and love. Vibration is very, very important to me from how my belief system is.
[00:07:23] I bind the entities. I might talk with the entities because they also might have information to give me that's helpful. How were they able to attach to the person? Do they need anything to help them go more towards the light? Is there something information they can give me about the person that is helpful where I can support the person somehow?
[00:07:44] Now there's some entities I'm not talking to them at all. They need to leave as quickly as possible. Those are the more Disconcerting ones, but everything I do, I send them on to wherever's for the highest and best of all concerned, which also includes the entities themselves for my belief system.
[00:08:02] Ideally, we're all have the energy capabilities or possibilities to move towards the light. That does not mean that if I'm in. a cave and there's a lion there. I'm going to be like, Oh, the lions moving towards the light. So I'm going to be all light and love. Like I'm still going to protect myself. And so I do that.
[00:08:23] I still protect myself. I still protect my client while also moving this entity on. And yes, I agree that many, many people get them. And I think the more informed people are, the less scared they are. Yeah. Which is why I really wanted to have you on to talk about this right now, because I think that the times that we're in,, it's hard to know.
[00:08:45] Cause I'm in a bubble and so , is it becoming more known and prevalent or is that the bubble that I'm in? But I do think that there's a worldwide phenomenon that we're here during spiritual awakening And one of those things is that as we awaken more spiritually, then we become aware of the light and the shadow of both polarities.
[00:09:06] And we're needing to face and embrace things , to step into our spiritual maturity. Right. And , so it's part of us becoming empowered, , versus , if I use like a correlation between , our human maturity from being an infant to an adult, right? At first we have these protective parents that keep us out of harm's way and don't give us scissors to run around with or let us play with fire.
[00:09:31] And then when we get to a certain level where we can learn how to work with fire being very respectful or work with sharp objects and being very respectful. And in the same way, I think that as we are awakening our consciousness, we are needing to, we're getting ready to step into that kind of level of.
[00:09:49] Maturity spiritually, that we can look at these things. Like you're saying, not from a place of fear, but how we can be aware mindful and respectful of how to work with these different energies. I agree with that. And as you're talking about how the world is shifting, how humanity is shifting and changing where we are in this year of 2024 and what's happening.
[00:10:14] And what I noticed is many, many years ago, people didn't talk about entities or if they did. It wasn't just fear based. It was terror based. It was like, so scary. If people talked about them, there was this idea of, is this person crazy? Is this person delusional fast forward many decades?
[00:10:32] Cause I have been doing this work for 24 years. Many decades later, , I get people weekly calling me, referring other people to me to do some form of entity removal. They don't have that wording for it. They might say, I have an attachment. I'm scared of something that feels like it's around me a lot.
[00:10:52] I feel like I'm being watched. My life is going so well, but I don't know why I feel so depleted. And this depletion doesn't feel like it's me. I don't know what's going on. And a little side note, when people say certain things, I want to first look at the physical level of their hormone levels. Are they iron deficient?
[00:11:09] Is there, the lights are going on and off in the house. Is there an electrical situation going on. So like, look at that stuff first. And when that is like, nope, it's none of that. Let's look at the potential spirit activity going on. And so I'm having a lot of people reach out. And I was on the phone last night with the doctor, did a consult because she referred one of her patients to me.
[00:11:30] Her patient is severely ill and she, Is doing what she can from the doctor perspective. And she felt like this patient had what the doctor said, some form of an attachment. And so reached out to me to see if I could work with the patient I'm having, psychiatrists, psychologists, therapists, refer their clients to me, from around the world.
[00:11:52] And it's really, really exciting. And one of the things that I love about it is being able to share my knowledge From a place of not fear. From a place of calm and peace share my knowledge, and then they get to add to that knowledge. Like , I know quite a bit about entity removal, but in the big scheme of things, I know like 1%.
[00:12:14] Like I'm very clear. I am just at the beginning of my journey, but in this area. I happen to know more than the average person. I love sharing what I know, whatever speaks to them, they can pick it up. If it doesn't resonate with them, great to know and go down the stream. We can collaborate together in growing our knowledge and experience.
[00:12:34] That's exciting that these more traditional, , practitioners like a allopathic doctor or maybe a psychotherapist that they're referring people to you. , so when I was looking for this book for the William Baldwin, Spirit Releasement book. I found this other book that I have, which is classic of me to have books that I haven't read and forgot about.
[00:12:56] And I found this one book it's called Unseen Worlds and Practical Aspects of Spiritual Discernment by Anastasia J. Nutt. And I hadn't read this book, but part of it I could tell I read because I underlined things in there. But I just wanted to read this one part because I think it has to do with why this is so important right now.
[00:13:16] And again, it's always been important, but why it's becoming, , increasingly important. She wrote that the increased interest in alternative spiritual paths present, as much of a challenge as it does an opportunity. Earnest persons seeking less righteously dogmatic but equally effective spiritual practices are buying spiritual how to books and immediately engaging in exercises that open them to unseen worlds for which they're unprepared.
[00:13:41] Spiritual seekers are going to classes and workshops taught by persons who themselves are not grounded in a healthy lifestyle or sacred art form and yet are guiding others as spiritual teachers. And I think , again, the beauty of this time is a lot of people are awakening and it's like she said, not in dogmatic systems, but then also because it's kind of like a do it yourself and, somebody sees something on Tik TOK or whatever, and that maybe people might, not realize what they're opening to, and not have their toolkit yet.
[00:14:13] And so yeah, I think it's super important. Yes, so I have quite a number of thoughts on that. One, she said, more and more people are becoming aware of it, so they're seeking out assistance, or to learn, or educate themselves, , or to go to classes, and yes, some of these classes are led by people who, who know just enough to say that they can lead a class, but Not enough to keep people out of harm's way, actually.
[00:14:37] And thankfully there are people who know what they're doing, but it is really difficult to find other people to do entity removal. Off the top of my head, me personally knowing someone, I only know one person and it's the same person you and I know. And. I can't think of another person who I have been in physical space with, who does this.
[00:14:58] And, it is kind of a rare thing at the moment, hopefully getting more and more popular. , one of the reasons why I think it's so important is also with the evolution of people right now, as people are opening up so much more, their shift, to spiritual realms. So whether it be through sacred medicine, mm-hmm, or simply,, acid or mushrooms, and it's not in a sacred space, they're simply taking it.
[00:15:25] And maybe they have this amazing experience where they're connecting with source or God, or connecting with Earth and in these processes, sometimes people open up themselves and in that opening, entities will come in or energies will come in.
[00:15:42] So if people want to do this, one of the things that I encourage, because those can be amazing experiences to have. One of the things I encourage. Is to clear yourself energetically. And I gladly walk people through how to do this or ask other people how to energetically clear themselves and then strengthen their energetic field around them, build up those energetic walls around them, and then have this amazing experience so that if there are some.
[00:16:11] Low vibrational beings around they just go right past you ideally and then after doing the sacred medicine do another clearing as well. when most of the teaching that I receive is from my spirit guides, most of my life. My. hands on work and education has been from spirit guides telling me what to do.
[00:16:34] Like my medical intuition, I have a medical spirit who comes in and she's been training me for years how to do this. So at some point I was like, Hmm, I wonder what people are saying out there about entities. I'm so curious. I would love to learn more. And so I YouTubed I do not recommend or recommend this, whatever y'all want.
[00:16:53] I YouTubed how to clear entities, how to clear ghosts, how to whatever it is. It was so much fear based. Like, I just felt so sad for the people who are going to see these videos and go into fear. , I can feel that sadness right now. Of this can be done with so much beauty and compassion and strength and knowledge and to see some of these videos were just the opposite of that.
[00:17:23] And it was almost like some of these videos were like, Stirring up the energy that might actually attract entities and get them stronger. So, ideally the more people we have out there who have some understanding of this and, can spread some helpful information, the better. Yeah, so in that book is called spiritual discernment.
[00:17:45] I think that that's important. I think energy hygiene and spiritual discernment, we all need to study these things and practice these things in the times that we're in now because of, The big, shifts vibrationally, then we need to be able to work with all the, , different energies that are being stirred up as you said, because in the same way, I've seen a lot of that about the false light where, , and people can't see that I'm doing air quotes, but a lot of people are putting things that stir up where people don't trust the Light.
[00:18:20] Also saying Reiki's a false light or different spiritual practices. And it's like one of those things where ultimately I wouldn't trust anything just by the name alone. If somebody says, Oh, I do Reiki or somebody says, Oh, I do. It's like, we have to each develop spiritual discernment.
[00:18:37] So that case by case situation by situation, we can sense and feel into. Whether or not this is something that's aligned with me, whether or not this is for my highest good versus just trusting information, especially in the times that we're in now with so much information available, that we can't just use logic Logic is one piece of what we want to use.
[00:19:02] And I like that you said, , the first thing that you look at is the logical stuff, right? Like, how's their physical health? And, , these kinds of things, the first kind of logical stuff you look at. And then when you rule that out, then you, so anyway, I just think that basic things like grounding and like you said, we have to, build up a strong, healthy energy field.
[00:19:26] , I remember when I was Studying the spirit releasement, they'd said that, and I'd like to hear more about what your thoughts are on this, but some of the ways that we become more susceptible to these attachments or to these entities, of course, would be things where our own energy, our physical body is, compromised, right?
[00:19:45] So like when somebody has illness or trauma Or maybe is going and getting surgery or these types of things or going through major grief? , what are maybe some of the key places or times when, people are more susceptible to this? Yes. Well, you actually just named a huge amount of the possibilities, an accident, some shock, some trauma.
[00:20:09] I remember a, , psychotherapist came to me, , and he lived in Germany and his therapist recommended him to come see me. And his therapist was saying, I think you have some kind of attachment. This is, beyond not what I focus on. How about you go see Nicole? So this psychoanalyst lovely man came to see me.
[00:20:29] And I checked his energetic field and right away I could see, I said, Oh, before you're born, , was your mom in a severe car accident that almost took her life? She was in the car with her father and that car accident changed her life. She almost died and it changed her life. And he said, yes, it did.
[00:20:48] Yes, she was. And I could see that a very dark, very dark energy came in and attached to her during that car accident. So the interesting thing about this story is that it stayed with her. And then when she gave birth, I don't say it attached to her son, but I don't think my spirit guides are saying no, it did not attach when she gave birth to him, but it connected with him sometime in his young childhood.
[00:21:17] He'd had this for a very, very long time. And so he came to me and I said, when someone has an attachment, that's pretty intense and they have it for a long time. It might take the person several sessions to be ready to let it go because they've created some bond with it, and they might actually be benefiting from it somehow.
[00:21:39] Let's figure out how are you benefiting from it? What bond is it? How can we support you? How can we support your system so that when you're ready to let it go? You can let it go. We went through that whole process and it took him three sessions. It was a third session. He says, I'm ready now.
[00:21:54] And it was so beautiful. And he got to say goodbye to this thing that in one way was very harmful to him. And another way, I say it is like an abusive relationship. Where when you say goodbye, there's also potentially some grief involved in it. So in that particular case, the original entity came in when there was a car accident, a shock, a life or death situation.
[00:22:19] And then also sometimes, like you said, when people are sick, when I worked with someone who had demonic possession. He had been in war and I saw, I was like, Oh, I see that. It looks like you've been in war , and you got it in the middle East. And he goes, yes, I was in the middle East in war. And I could see that this demonic possession came in during that time period.
[00:22:42] And so now these are more extreme situations. A lot of entities aren't demonic or people don't have massive car accidents or massive hospital stays or something like that. We just have like a regular sickness. So one of the overall things is checking someone's energetic field. Which as children, we're not raised, what is this?
[00:23:04] We know how to read, we know how to write, but we're not taught in general that our energetic field goes three to six feet beyond our body. And it's this eggshell shape around us. And so the walls of our energetic field to teach our young people to show them, Or to just show ourselves how to clear our energetic field and how to strengthen that shell,
[00:23:29] it's like when we go out in the sun, we put on the sunscreen to protect our skin when we go out in life, we protect our energetic field by strengthening that up. So then if we are sick, if we are in a car accident, ideally things go as smoothly as possible in those situations.
[00:23:47] But also we have that strength where we don't have an attachment, but also just every now and then you talked about discernment, like discerning, do I have an energetic attachment? Do I have something that I'm feeling depleted by? Even as a psychic, and I'm pretty aware of things psychically, sometimes I'm like, I don't have the discernment right now if I have something or not.
[00:24:10] Okay. I'll just go in and do a clearing anyway. All right. It's kind of like, eh, am I that dirty? Do I need a shower? I'll go in and do the shower anyway. Yeah, I remember in the spirit releasement training, and I had this experience too, when I was doing them in my internship, where the person themselves might be like, yes, I feel I have an attachment and I want to release this.
[00:24:33] And then when it comes to the appointment time, they don't show up we were told Oh, this is very common. , they might suddenly make an excuse or back out of it because the entity feels and knows Oh, you're going to try to send me away.
[00:24:47] And what do you do? , what are you taught by your spirit guide to do in those situations where somebody is trying to back out last minute? Yes, absolutely. So I find that that's when it's with a strong entity that is not the entities that you go into. The grocery store and you might get an entity like run of the mill entities. Those are stronger entities. And when I can sense on a client that there's a stronger entity, I tell the client up front, Hey, I've noticed a pattern with some people that they can form an emotional And a chemical attachment to it, it makes sense why it happens and that as we go along, your entity itself might start to get stirred up and might Either deplete your energy where you're like, Oh, I can't do this appointment or get you stirred up emotionally.
[00:25:40] And the person might get angry with me. My clients do not get angry with me. My clients are lovely and wonderful and whatnot. But if a client does get angry with me. It's almost always because there is an intense entity attachment and that entity has stirred up my client's emotions.
[00:25:57] So I tell them beforehand, hey, this is maybe something that happens. If it's a run of the mill entity, yeah, we could do that in like 20 minutes, but if it's this more intense one or demonic, it can be multiple, multiple sessions. A house clearing will need to be done with it. And so I give them information upfront.
[00:26:16] So we might be basically talking for two sessions before we even get to the actual hearing, kind of preparing them to, yes, it's preparing. Again, I relate it to if they're leaving an abusive partner, if someone comes along and says, Oh, I see you're an abusive relationship, leave right now. Well, that's not going to happen.
[00:26:36] And that could be Shocking to the person that can maybe not be in their best interest because they have not prepared. When you said some people have an emotional attachment. could imagine people being like, what, how could that be? But I wanted to give a couple examples that I know of where people have because
[00:26:53] let's say if we had childhood trauma, we were a victim, and something horrible happens to us. And this other stronger being comes in and so instead of feeling powerless as the victim, this entity comes in, it makes you feel strong, so somebody might have just A lot of rage from their experience, but it feels very powerful.
[00:27:14] And so you could kind of understand how they feel like, Oh, I need this because it keeps me safe because it's strong. It's protective. That's one example. Another example. Great example. May I use that example in the future? That was a great example. Yeah. That was so spot on. I know. Yeah. I mean, I have.
[00:27:32] Experiences with people that have had these things. Another one this was when I was, in the Yoga Cult , there was this. Mother and son that were coming to the center. I mean, the son's like 30, right?
[00:27:44] So they're not a child and a grown adult. And the father passed away and , the mother confided in me, the father was an alcoholic and basically really negative in his life. And , just kind of. Was in a dark place or whatever. And when the father passed away, the son started to drink alcohol and he stopped coming to the center and he started to go into this negative spiral.
[00:28:11] And I didn't at that point in my life have much experience with this, she was like, I just wonder if his father's soul is, having an influence on him because , he's drinking the same thing his dad drank, you know?
[00:28:21] And so , I could see that as well like loved ones crossing over and then we have an emotional bond, but they might not be in the highest and best, and they might be kind of sticking around trying to live through us , yeah, in I still remember your first, And I was thinking, like, that makes sense that they try to get their addict, they still even though they're on the other side of, they don't have the physical.
[00:28:52] I think most addictions anyway, aren't really about the physical thing. They're more of an emotional need that's getting met. But what are your thoughts on those examples? So in that case, I would think that the spirit would actually be considered what we would say is ghost. So an earthbound spirit still living out some of his addictions.
[00:29:11] If the father was connected with the son and then influencing the son , to live out. His addictions. If the spirit had moved over, crossed the rainbow, so to speak from my experience and understanding, once spirits have left the earthbound realms, and moved on, they're not living out their addictions anymore.
[00:29:34] And they might still have healing to do in that area and gaining understanding in that area, But I wouldn't think that that spirit has moved on. His father moved on and then still had some influence over the son. But if it was a ghost and still connected with the earth, he might. Now it could be that then you have this family trauma and the frequency of the addiction that's going from the father to the son and passed down through the generations.
[00:30:03] There's lineage. stuff going on. There could be that the father picked up an entity that's then transferred to the son. There's multiple ways of it happening, whichever way, whatever is happening. I just hope this son gets what he needs or he actually got what he needed a long time ago and just so much love, support, care, And help shifting that situation.
[00:30:26] You had mentioned that in the other episode that I did with you, I talked about my young childhood experience, and that was a pivotal experience for me. I was, I think, three or four years old. And , I wasn't at a bar. I was at Alcoholics Anonymous actually. Alcoholics Anonymous. That's what it was.
[00:30:44] Yeah. It's funny. Like bar, Alcoholics Anonymous, one of those. It's similar, but also opposite, right? There are lots of people. Yeah. Lots of people who are , in the midst of addiction, whether they have a whiskey in their hand or a beer in their hand or not. And, , my parents had divorced.
[00:31:04] My dad couldn't afford childcare and he got sober when I was very young. I've actually never seen my dad drunk by the time he crossed over, he was sober 36 years, but he was very much in the frequency of addiction, alcohol, and drug addiction, even though I never saw him use. And so he took me to AA, which I'm sure no one would let a three or four year old in the door at AA nowadays, but they did, At that time, I think he had me off to the side and not in the circle of men, right?
[00:31:34] I was over near the doughnuts or something, maybe a coloring book or something like that, but I saw on the wall what looked to me like an enormous lizard, like probably three fourths the size of a human, like enormous lizard, and I was terrified, and to me it felt, quote, bad, and it felt oily, And I knew intuitively it had to do with alcohol, even though I may not have even had the word for alcohol, even though I was hearing it in the group.
[00:32:05] So I didn't have all the knowledge of it, but I just knew I was scared of it. And in my young childhood and then teenagehood, part of my process was I got a lot of information. I saw a lot of things, felt a lot of things. Some of them were beautiful, amazing, life changing, and some of them were terrifying for me.
[00:32:27] And overall, I felt overwhelmed with information. It was like too much sun, too much rain, too much wind. They can all be lovely things or challenging things. And it was too much. So part of my process that then led me to entity work is learning how to Again, strengthen up my energetic field to clear myself.
[00:32:50] And then once I did that, I was able to discern much easier. What is intuitive information? What's my imagination? What's my mind thinking? what is an entity? What is not a good thing or a bad thing? Or, Which one is which when I wasn't inundated with information and quote, feels, , then I was able to discern what was what, and then move accordingly through it.
[00:33:16] Yeah, one of my big questions that I'm curious to hear your perspective on this has to do with free will. So it makes sense, , I really believe, actually, I don't know what I really believe. I evolve what I believe over time. So I like to just hear goodness. Oh, yeah, right, whatever I'm going to answer in like two years from now, five years from now, I might listen back to this and go, Oh, I've changed that answer.
[00:33:42] Yeah. And, we get to have that thankfully. but yeah, so this idea of free will in the situations that we're talking about where there's an emotional bond the entity sort of serves some purpose, even if it's. Not the best way, but then
[00:33:59] , is it always that the person who has the attachment on some level, right, not their conscious mind most of the time, on some level though, there's an agreement to this attachment or can there be attachments because if there's no agreement, then how is that within our free will?
[00:34:18] I'm trying to understand Yeah, it's such a great question, and I'm going to start off by saying the discernment. I don't know the answer, but I'm going to give you what I think might be the answer, which is in a lot of situations, it's not actually some agreement on some level with that entity itself. It is the learning process or it's the experience of , having openings in our field.
[00:34:43] And so part of this is, Oh, if I go outside. in the rain without a raincoat, I'm going to learn that I'm going to get rain on me. And so did I have an agreement with the rain that the rain was meant to be on me? Maybe. And maybe it was, that's part of my learning process. So in people's experiences that we're starting to talk more and more about not just The physical realm, but the etheric realm, the spirit realm, that we're learning how these things work or how we think that they work.
[00:35:19] And so as far as free will, I think we have free will to have all kinds of experiences and then we get to learn and grow from them or not. And some of those experiences involve entities. That being said, I do think that some entities. demonic. So I'm not sure about demonic. I'm going to take that off.
[00:35:41] Entities, curses, hexes. I'll stick with those kind of things. I do think that sometimes people come into their lives knowing that that's going to happen, especially if we look at family curses, which can involve entities, family curses, and hexes that go on through multiple generations. When that spirit is coming into that family, from my understanding, the spirit knows what family they're going to go into.
[00:36:13] The family on some level knows what What baby they're going to let in and that baby knows , if I come into this family, I will be influenced by that family curse. So is that something that you work with? And also you said curses and hexes, which I don't know, I thought were kind of the same thing.
[00:36:32] What's the difference between a curse and a hex? Actually, they're so similar that I put them as the same thing. Like I would have to really think right now about what is the difference between curses and hexes? But it feels almost like , it's from different parts of the world, like the language of it.
[00:36:48] Yeah. And certain , spells that control people. I just recently worked with releasing a spell from someone and I had no idea they had it on them. And I was helping them release attachments and then got to this one part and I went, well, this doesn't feel like an attachment. This feels like you're being controlled , from outside yourself.
[00:37:09] This feels like a spell. And then the person was like, Oh, the person actually, they told me when I met them that they did a love spell on me and they had this doll and they made this thing. And so I realized it's a very specific kind of spell that this person used. That is to manipulate someone to do something.
[00:37:27] That is not a free will spell at all. And so I helped her release that. So still the free will thing. I'm still like, that's not a free will spell. Yeah. I'm just thinking then, but if we have free will, , can we just , have an intention that all spells or curses do not get absorbed into my field or do not work, , or like, how does if that's my free will?
[00:37:56] So this is such a great question. I would say a lot of it's above my pay grade that , I just only have. my experiences and theories from my human experience, which is wonderful and beautiful and it's limited. And then whatever I'm thinking, if once I cross over, I look back on this and they go, Whoa, I missed the mark.
[00:38:18] I'm like, okay, I missed the mark on that. I do think though, part of one of my ideas is that the more consciousness and awareness we bring into our daily the more we have access to our free will. That was actually, while you were talking, that was what was coming into my mind. , slightly different words, but like, The higher our frequency is, , but it's the same thing that you're saying.
[00:38:42] The more consciousness then we start to get to the level of having , our free will. And so that's funny. We were both kind of at the same time. Yeah, I got that. You're just let's say synced up and , so imagine I often say that our energetic field. is like our house.
[00:39:02] So we get to say who comes into our house and when we want them to leave. And if there are holes in the house, if there are leaks in the roof, if there are cracks in the walls, things can come in. And it's like, okay. Oh, I noticed there's some cracks. I noticed there are some holes. Rain came in. Sun came in.
[00:39:22] The neighbor's cat came in. A raccoon came in. Oh, I didn't actually want that. Okay. So let's move these things out. Let's clean up the floor. Let's seal up the walls and seal up the roof so that I have more consciousness in this experience, more control, more understanding of what's going on here. And so that's.
[00:39:45] Potentially added to the conversation of how free will works and , I really feel very strongly that I know so little when it comes to free will, like I confidently say that I am excited to learn more throughout this life and beyond. And, , yeah, on the illusion. That's right. Beyond the illusion.
[00:40:07] Have someone, a free will specialist come in. That is not me. I have not seen anyone call themselves, but I've not looked, they're out there somewhere. Free will coach or something or mentor. Yeah. But my next line of questioning is about, where do these entities come from? , we just had someone on, we had a portal keeper episode and in our healer group, , we've been kind of talking about portals as well.
[00:40:36] And so, I'd love for you to talk about , where and how do these entities get to our earth? Yes, excellent question. So first, I'll say, basically, I don't know. And one of the reasons I don't know, I have a dear friend, a mutual friend that we have, Barbara, and Barbara often asks me really great questions, intriguing questions, just like you're asking me questions.
[00:41:01] And I go, I haven't thought about that before. Oh, I don't know. And then I immediately go into psychic space and I ask my spirit guides and they give me their answer. And so I hear from one perspective of my spirit guides. So what I realize is in my life, especially my growing up, I was constantly receiving information constantly.
[00:41:22] I was inundated with it. I was overwhelmed with it. , and so much of my life was Stop. I don't want like pushing it out. I don't want to keep receiving sounds, sites information about people dying. , like information about someone's about to get a new puppy, whatever it might be. I was pushing out stuff , and wanting it to stop.
[00:41:44] So it can just be more peaceful within me. Well, what created was a pattern of, I'm not going to ask questions about it. Because I already have so much information coming towards me. And so I do love asking questions, but some things that seem obvious, like where entities coming from? Part of me is like, ah, I never asked that.
[00:42:04] So I don't know. So anyway, there's some backstory to that, that it's hilarious that I work with entities and I have not asked where did they come from? However, that being said, I do have some experience that some Entities, such as non conscious entities, more like amoebas, are created.
[00:42:23] So it could be unknowingly created by humans. in ritual in intense situations where a lot of energy comes together. It's low vibrational energy. It binds together and then you have this entity. Now I don't actually know if that's how it works, but that's what I can see happening now. Entities that have consciousness.
[00:42:46] Sometimes these entities are, , humans that have crossed over. Sometimes these entities are, Are from other realms, other dimensions, and sometimes these entities are created from other beings, non human beings and sent here. So those are several ways. Or where they come from and demonic beings is a whole other thing and I do work with them as well.
[00:43:13] We haven't really dug into demonic beings, so, yeah, what can you tell us about demonic beings? What you know, and you've worked with them. Yes.
[00:43:25] So, , there was a long time I didn't even want to say the word demon or demonic, , and if I did, I would whisper it because there was so much energy around it that, , I was concerned that even me saying it, there'd be some demons somewhere that would then, like, go, what? Someone just said, Demon. Who is that?
[00:43:43] Oh, that's Nicole. And like I felt more, vulnerable and exposed if I talked about it. I still don't talk about demonic very much and yet here I am on a podcast talking about it. Usually I talk just about entities. And I have worked with demonic beings for a couple of decades, I guess, and it's been more and more frequent of late.
[00:44:09] And they can come in all sorts of shapes and sizes, so to say, and all sorts of different strengths. When I do work with demonic or when I'm not working with demonic, I can have a very joyful personality. I can bring humor in it. Like, oh, there's this attachment. Okay, let's get rid of it. And yet I'm professional.
[00:44:29] I'm doing my job when I work with demonic. That is serious. That's serious work. So I might intentionally bring humor in it, but that is to help counterbalance. That is to help me keep my vibration very, very high. If I'm going into a building to clear, , last year, , I cleared a 5, 000 square foot building.
[00:44:48] That's over a hundred years old. I was called in, I think it was the fourth psychic to be called in for it. The first three said, yes. And then. physical things happened, which scared them to warn them off from doing it. And I didn't happen to not feel afraid of this one. , but I didn't know I needed help.
[00:45:09] And that was the first time I ever called someone in for assistance. And I called her friend, Barbara Rowling in because I wanted her to lay a crystal grid. And she is a geologist and a also has the spiritual knowledge of crystals. And, so she has the scientific and the spiritual knowledge. And so she was wonderful.
[00:45:28] She came and laid a crystal grid outside the building while I was inside working with my spirit team to move the crystal. to close the portal that was open in that building and to bind the demon and send it on.
[00:45:46] When I work with everyday kind of entities, I have a specific team for that. When I work with demonic, I have a different team for that. And the demonic, , I know, like if I go into psychic session with someone and Archangel Michael comes into the session, I know there's a demon present. It's the only time he shows up for me.
[00:46:08] So just his presence. I know that he doesn't come in during prayers for me. He doesn't come into personal stuff for me. It's just when I have a client and , he will show up. the first time I had an experience with a demonic being, my son was probably seven years old. I have a son and a daughter and they're both.
[00:46:29] Psychic. And they're both young adults. Now, my son was probably seven or nine years old. And I was in the living room. He was in the opposite end of the house. He had no idea what I was doing. And I was doing a clearing for someone what's called by proxy. So I wasn't talking with them. I wasn't at their house.
[00:46:49] I wasn't physically with them. I was just connecting with their energy and doing the clearing in that clearing. A demonic being entered our house and moved lightning fast down my hall, through the living room, down the hallway, into my son's bedroom and attacked my son. And all of a sudden my son started screaming, it's hurting me.
[00:47:13] It's hurting me. And again, he had no idea that I was doing anything. So from that experience, I learned that when I do these entity removals or demonic work, I always ask my spirit team to bind the beings. Cause if I don't bind them, they can jump onto some specific with the demonic versus just an attachment.
[00:47:37] , I do it with attachments as well. Always, always, always, always. I've seen way too many entities or attachments jump onto other people in the homes. Yeah, there was just a short period of time that I saw this. , and then my spirit guide said, bind them, bind them first. What I imagine is a cord of white light that binds them.
[00:47:57] So it's not like I'm putting them in a cage. It's not like I'm sending them to the depths of hell. I'm doing this in this white light, fierce, strong white light, not like flowers in a field, white light, but like. Badass white light.
[00:48:14] So, cause you said the depths of hell. , and then I wanted to ask you . So , do you believe in hell, and what is your perspective on that? And where did the demonic energy come from?
[00:48:25] Okay, great. I do believe in places that are full of dark energy. I don't know the names of, maybe hell, maybe not. However, I don't believe that God sends us to hell as punishment. Like, there is no cell in my body that believes that. I do believe that there's some archetypal place like hell, an archetypal place like heaven, and many, many, many, many other places.
[00:48:50] So many that I can't even imagine. So yes, I do believe that there are some demons who come from a very, very, very, low energy, vibrational place and a quite a powerful place as well. And then , I don't know what my answer is for this.
[00:49:06] So I'm asking what your answer is. Do you believe at the core of every being there is light that all beings at the core come from source come from light and that the darkest ones either have forgotten their light or are choosing not to claim their light? Or do you think that some beings.
[00:49:26] are only darkness and have no light potential yeah. So I just want to acknowledge that I am someone who has always worn rose colored glasses. I'm always has a have a Pollyanna flare. I know that as part of my personality. So in my belief system, even demons have. Some amount of light in them because they come from prime creator or some greater source now, if I cross over and some version of God , or really high spiritual being comes to me and say, actually, there are some beings that are pure darkness.
[00:50:04] I go. Okay. All right but for me, Not only do I believe that, I think it's just important for me personally, Nicole, to believe that because that helps me move forward in life. That helps me feel safer and feel like there's a whole huge evolution going on. Of the human race , of spiritual beings in this universe and other universes that we're all having our individual experiences, our collective experiences, and that we're all moving towards the light with more knowledge, fulfillment, understanding.
[00:50:39] Yeah, that's basically, that's how I feel too, but I also similar to you could be called more of a Pollyanna. I have that perspective because I'm similar in that way. But that's also what we were taught in the spirit releasement too, , it's interesting because a lot of the things , you were trained inwardly.
[00:50:56] And I was trained outwardly and yet it's so totally aligned everything that you're saying the same thing even about binding being in light in a very powerful light, and that also at the core of every being that there is light. , so, yeah, I find that really interesting how it aligns, actually, may I comment on that?
[00:51:17] Yeah. For many, many, many, many years, even decades, I would talk with my friends or family and just lament going, I don't have a teacher. I don't have a teacher. I don't know what the heck I'm doing. I, and I would like want to seek out some psychic teacher, some intuitive teacher, some spiritual teacher. And one either I couldn't find them because also half my life there was no internet.
[00:51:40] Right. So it was not, the click of your fingers. And then when there was internet, I still couldn't find either anyone who's available that I could learn under, or I wasn't resonating with what people said. And then one of my dear friends said to me a couple of years ago, he's like, what do you mean you have teachers?
[00:51:59] I'm like, I don't have teachers. I mean, I was crying. I was having a big emotional experience, just feeling like I've never had teachers. And he says, you're constantly telling me how your guides taught you this medical thing, or taught you , how to help find a missing child or whatever it might be.
[00:52:15] And I go, Oh my gosh, I've had teachers since day one. I've had teachers from such a young age and one of the things that my teachers have often told me is don't read books, don't listen to podcasts, don't listen to other people channel. And I started channeling a couple of years ago, don't do these things.
[00:52:34] And I was so confused because I love reading. I love this stuff. But my body's been such a no, like I would pull up a podcast and my body's no. I, , get a book , from the bookstore and my body's a no. Now I can do that , but for many decades, I couldn't, it was a very, very few books. I've read like, let's say five books on , spiritual topics, 53 years old.
[00:52:58] And that is so, so little, I could name the books that I've read And that is because I know now my spirit guides wanted to teach me. And so I've learned directly from them. And now just in the last year, I've started listening to some podcasts. I picked up a book, but you know, I got like five pages in a spiritual book.
[00:53:20] And so it is interesting that I love that. I've been learning from my spirit guides. You learn from your classes, , your sounds like very wise and experienced teachers, and we've come. with some similar information, which is exciting. Yeah, absolutely. What do you really want people to know about this topic?
[00:53:40] Great question. One of the things That I emphasize in the classes I teach or, , when I'm working with my clients is some basic things. And I've said it a lot. on, this podcast today is energetic hygiene. You actually use that phrase. It's one of my favorite phrase, but clearing and cleansing your field.
[00:53:59] So energetic hygiene, and they teach people different steps. People can go online, looking up how to clear your aura, clear your field. So that strengthening your auric field And finding that place within you where you feel safe, no matter what's happening, you feel safe and knowing ways that you can raise your vibration.
[00:54:21] So say someone's in bed at nighttime, they feel something in their bedroom, they feel afraid. And doing what needs to be done to feel safer, call on your spirit guides. Hey, spirit guides. I don't know if something's in here that is not for my highest and best, but if it is, will you please move it on?
[00:54:39] And I'm going to sing. Thank you., a song from my childhood to keep my frequency and my vibration up. And so those are some of the things clearing the field, strengthening the field, and then learning ways to, remove entities. So when I say clearing the field, I mean of energy, I don't mean entities. I mean, just clearing from your work day.
[00:55:01] , and then learning how to do an entity clearing, whether, yeah, for me looking it up online, actually, like I said before, when I looked it up online, it was very scary stuff. And, people are welcome to reach out if they have questions about it, , or come to one of my events where I teach people or.
[00:55:21] Get a session where I teach people how to do it. I also work with children. I love working with children and helping them work through this process from a very, very empowered place, not a scary place. Some children are having some very scary experiences. Their parents are reaching out to me because they're like, I trust my child, but I don't know what the heck's going on here.
[00:55:42] Can you please support them? So coming in and supporting the Children and teaching them some very simple exercises of imagine a white cloud and then bringing that white cloud down or white balloon, bringing it down and you feel safe and warm or cool. Cool. Or you feel light , or heavy, whatever feels best to you.
[00:56:04] And that it's just protecting you or imagine putting on your protective space suit at nighttime or before you, go off to school or some children who have some visitors in the middle of the night, some spirit visitors, and they're scared of it. Mom, dad make go away spray. Like get a spray bottle, put some essential oils in it, say with the child, a prayer or an intention over this, this spray bottle, this go away spray, we spray this and only lovely high vibrational beings are allowed in this room.
[00:56:40] So only good beings are allowed in this room. , have a stuffed animal. Or call upon a spirit animal to be a protector, whether it be a dog, a fierce lion, a bird, whatever it is, children are very connected with animals in general, and have an animal come into play. to protect them while they sleep. Okay.
[00:57:05] Suggestion Adults can dothat too. Adults can do it too. There's so many clearing tools out there that are beyond entities. It's clearing for entities, but also freshening up our house, doing the spring cleaning. I go into a lot of different homes and buildings and I show people the tools and obviously some kind of Smudge, but I also use resins.
[00:57:30] I use mer resin, frankincense resin, copal resin. These are things that clear out low vibrational energies. I charge up stones, black opals, selenite, those pull in black, not opal, I'm saying it wrong, like onyx. Nope. Obsidian, obsidian. Thank you. My spirit guide was like obsidian. It's very convenient to have a spirit guide.
[00:57:53] Thank you. A black obsidian can pull in the negative energies into black obsidian. So I will put it at every entrance of the house, whether larger piece or small piece of black obsidian in a bowl. And after three days, Pick up that black obsidian, take it outside because it needs to be cleared. It can be washed in the sink, cleared in the moon or the sunlight.
[00:58:18] , selenite is a high frequency crystal that people can use to bring in the light. Consciously with an intention, putting up a bubble of protection over people's homes, apartment complexes, individual apartments, their car. If someone has other people in the home, partners, children, friends, and you're doing an entity clearing, high suggestion is A.
[00:58:44] Asking for protection to be put around every person in the home, just in case, even though we're asking for that entity to be bound, just in case that entity might try to influence the other people in the house. Pets too? Yes, pets as well. I used to also put it around plants, but now I realize I don't think that's necessary, but pets as well.
[00:59:07] Yes. Yes. Yeah, great. Yeah. Okay. So I think we've gone a little long. I could talk to you forever and ever about interesting. So if people want to reach out to you for your services, whether it's for the entity or attachment work, or whether for you're an excellent psychic. I have a reading with you tomorrow.
[00:59:31] I'm super excited about and also for your classes. Can you tell everyone your website or how to reach you? Yes. Thank you. So my website is Nicole parish. com. So N I C O L E P A R I S H. com. I am the world's worst at , updating my website. So that website is from several years ago, old pictures, and I don't update my classes on there.
[00:59:56] Maybe we'll someday in the future, but that is how people get ahold of me. And you can always ask for a list of my updated classes. I do have a Facebook group, Nicole parish. Psychic medium. And that is where every time I have a class, I posted on there, Nicole Parrish psychic medium. So feel free to reach out there as well.
[01:00:18] And I give classes such as empowered Empath and, , supporting the empath , in what kind of impasse there are and different ways to support them. I also do energetic badass, which is a lot of what we're talking about of clearing the energetic field and strengthening our boundaries and protection.
[01:00:40] And I have a monthly intuitive development circle. It is free. for having me. There's something within me that I always want to offer something free to the community. During COVID, I offered free online group readings. And since COVID, I've been doing it for quite a while, offering these , free intuitive classes.
[01:01:00] And those are in person in Austin. , so that's how to get ahold of me and some of my activities. Awesome. Thank you so much. It was such a pleasure. I really enjoyed our conversation. Thank you so much.
