Welcome to In the Flow with Lori Albert,
A brief,
Positivity-inspiring chat and meditation designed to uplift and motivate us to live our best lives.
Let's get in the flow.
My message today.
.
.
So much fun.
I love this.
I could talk about this for hours.
My message today is everything I'm going to talk about is that spirits.
.
.
This is the whole thing.
Spirits do not have to be scary.
Ghosts,
Spirits,
Whatever you want to call them,
It doesn't have to be a scary thing.
And so I love talking about this periodically.
Like,
You'll see me talk about this periodically because sometimes it gets to a point where a lot of people are just like,
Oh my God,
What was that?
Oh my God,
What was that?
You know?
And it's like,
It doesn't exactly have to be a scary thing.
Okay?
So the reason why I'm talking about all of this today is that because so many of you are opening up,
You're starting to have this spiritual awakening.
Right?
And because of that,
Your clairs are starting to open.
Now,
What are clairs?
Clairs are like,
There's a whole bunch of them,
Right?
There's clairvoyance.
Most of you have probably heard of that.
Right?
Clairvoyance is when you see stuff.
Like if you see.
.
.
Now,
I thought before I opened up all my spiritual gifts,
I thought clairvoyance was when you see an actual apparition of a spirit in front of you.
And you're just like,
Whoa.
Right?
It doesn't have to be just that.
It can be that.
Right?
But it can also be seeing shadows,
Which by the way,
There are so many in my house.
You guys should see it.
It's hysterical.
Anyway,
I digress.
So there's that.
There's clairvoyance.
Okay?
Being able to see weird things out of the corner of your eye,
That sort of thing.
Right?
There's all sorts of other clairs,
But I was just giving you that as an example.
There's also,
I'll just tell you about this real fast,
Clairaudience,
Which is clear hearing.
Like if you're in the middle of a closed room and you hear really loud.
.
.
This is an example.
A bird.
And you're just like,
Where am I hearing that bird?
That's called clairaudience.
Or a lot of people hear somebody,
Sometimes when they're sleeping or whatever,
They hear somebody call their name.
Right?
Have you had that happen?
You know,
A lot of people have.
Right?
So there's that.
That would be clairaudience.
Right?
So those are two of the clairs.
I don't want to get into that.
That would be for another show.
Right?
And what I want to say about all this is sort of a Laurie type disclaimer here.
There are many different schools of thought about ghosts and spirits and all of this work that I do.
Right?
But this is the most important point that I want to say about this before I get into some of my stories.
Right?
When we work at a high vibrational level.
Right?
So when we work at a place of love or I shouldn't even say work,
But live right at a place of high vibration,
Love and gratitude and joy.
When we work in those higher vibrational ways of being,
We don't have to worry so much about the lower vibrational ghost spirits and that sort of thing.
OK?
And to me,
That is one of the most important things that anybody that's starting out should know.
OK?
I don't really have issues with lower vibrational beings,
Entities,
That sort of thing,
Because I work in the higher vibration.
Now,
I've had stuff happen,
Don't get me wrong,
As we all do.
But.
But when you.
When we talk about what I'm going to talk about in a second,
You kind of take in and it's like you don't have to worry about it.
OK?
Because you're protected.
OK?
So when I was a kid,
I would see things,
Weird things,
And it would freak me out.
Right?
I was told that it wasn't real or,
You know,
Laurie,
That's just your imagination.
Oh,
I got that one a lot because I'm like kind of loud and outspoken and stuff.
So,
You know,
People would be like,
Oh,
Come on,
You're just you're it's your imagination.
Right.
You know?
And so what happened was I blocked it.
I blocked it all.
Nobody's fault there,
By the way.
Nobody's at fault for that.
Right.
But anyway,
In the 1990s.
Oh,
My God,
That's so long ago.
And just realized,
Oh,
My God,
Is my college boyfriend.
Yes,
I'm I'm mid 50s.
Let's just say I'm in my mid 50s now.
But back in the 90s,
My college boyfriend passed away.
He transitioned.
OK.
And he began visiting me.
Now,
If you know me,
You know that I I'm like an A type personality.
Well,
The guys that I would date and my husband,
You know,
They're kind of a personalities,
Too.
Right.
So you can only imagine when when my when my high school or my high school,
When my college boyfriend passed away,
I started to be like I started to hear from him in a big way.
Right.
And it became OK.
And this is like my favorite spirit story.
And I don't know if you guys have if I've ever told this before,
But this is my my one of my favorite stories.
OK,
So his name is Kirk.
OK.
And in the 90s.
He passed away.
And what happened was is that he started like I started feeling stuff like,
Oh,
Like I started thinking about him,
Like for no apparent reason.
You know,
I was married to somebody else and whatever,
You know,
But I started thinking about him and I thought that was weird.
And then and then I found out that he passed away.
He was in the military.
There was an accident,
Blah,
Blah,
You know.
So I found out that he passed away.
And then all of a sudden I was like,
Oh,
Maybe he's here.
And all of a sudden,
Because around this time is when I started really get into meditation.
And so I started to kind of open up myself to what was happening.
Right.
And I remember one day sitting in the house going,
Oh,
My God,
Kirk.
And so I thought,
Just talk to him,
See what happens.
Right.
So I started talking to him and I was like,
Kirk,
If it's you.
OK,
This is and I don't do anything small.
Right.
So I said to him,
I said,
Oh,
My God.
OK,
So Kirk,
If this is you,
Then I have to go to the grocery store.
If this is you,
I'm going to see a lady walking a lab dog,
You know,
A Labrador.
Right.
And I was like,
No.
I said,
I'm going to keep that on there on this list.
But I'm going to like I'm going to I'm just going to I'm going to do other things,
Too,
Because,
You know,
It's very I mean,
I live suburbia.
So there's a good chance there's going to be a lady walking a dog.
Right.
So there's that.
Then I'm going to see an orange Corvette.
I don't know where.
Right.
So I was like,
OK.
And I thought,
OK,
I'm not going to be like too weird about this.
You know,
I'm just going to like go.
So I continue throughout my day and I go to the store,
I get in the car,
Go into the store.
All of a sudden,
I see a lady walking this a Labrador retriever.
And I'm like,
Well,
That's bizarre.
Right.
And somebody who hadn't had much experience at that point,
I was like,
Whoa.
And then drive a little further.
My grocery store was about a mile and a half for me.
Right.
So I didn't have far to go.
So I thought if he makes this work out,
Then I am a believer.
Full on believer.
Right.
So I drive a little further and you're not going to believe what I saw.
An orange Corvette craziness,
Right.
Craziness.
So at that point,
I was like,
Oh,
My God.
So I like literally I think this was a long time ago.
So I think I pulled over.
Right.
And I was like,
Oh,
My God,
Kirk,
Are you here?
Are you really here?
Are you here?
Are you really here?
That sort of thing.
And it became like this friendship,
Like this weird sort of friendship.
And then it sort of blossomed into other things.
Right.
You know,
That's just like one of my main stories.
Right.
Because I was supposed to start to feel and he is an integral part of my journey.
He's like the one that sort of orchestrates.
He's like I call him sort of my gatekeeper.
Like he's the one that he and Archangel Michael allow spirits to come in whenever I'm doing reading and all of that kind of stuff.
Yeah,
It's it's it's special.
It's my story.
You know,
I mean,
It's very special to me,
Obviously.
Right now.
The one thing I want to say about spirits and about ghosts,
Which are basically the same thing,
By the way.
But it's it's really about not allowing ourselves to be in fear of the spirits.
OK.
Fear is and I've talked about this just recently.
Fear is at the bottom of the emotional scale there.
Right.
Fear is lower than hate.
It really is because fear just drives negativity.
If you think about it,
I'm not going to get into it,
But if you think about,
You know,
Fear of going outside,
Fear of all sorts of strange fears,
We all have them.
You know,
Right.
Even I do.
And I live in the high vibration,
But,
You know,
That sort of thing.
Right.
So but then if you think about it,
If you can get rid of start to get out of the fear,
Start slowly moving up that sort of scale.
And you allow spirit.
To be part of your your.
Psyche,
Like your your area,
Your area,
You know what I mean,
If you allow that,
You can experience some amazing things.
And here's the thing.
You have control over this.
This is like the other main point that I really wanted to make today.
When you see a spirit or you think you have a spirit with you,
You have control over that.
That's why fear has no place in this.
And again,
This is my train of thought.
This is how I work.
OK,
Some people enjoy dealing with the scary entities.
You know,
There are TV shows,
Ghosts,
Whatever.
You know,
I like to watch those sometimes,
But I get really irritated because if any of you have ever had a reading with me,
I feel like I'm very respectful to the spirits on the other side.
Right.
I like to know their names,
Whether I get their names or not.
I'll ask,
You know,
I'll ask my sitter,
You know,
What's what's the name of this man or woman or whatever?
And I feel like I'm very respectful that way.
But a lot of these TV shows and these are the lower vibrational things.
They're just like they go into these like mental institutions and they're like screaming,
Come out right now.
And it's like,
Geez,
Really?
Whatever happened to you guys are going to laugh when you hear me say this,
But like you get more flies with honey than you do with vinegar.
That's just my sort of way of being,
You know.
So anyway,
I have so many stories of all of this.
When my dad passed away,
I was so fortunate to be in the room when my dad passed away,
You know,
And when he passed away,
I didn't actually see his spirit go up,
But I knew.
And again,
I'm my main Claire is called Claire Sentience.
And that's one I didn't mention before.
But Claire Sentience is like the feeling,
Right?
I knew he was in the corner of the room.
I knew it.
I didn't see anything,
But I knew he was up there.
And I was like,
Dad,
I've got this.
I'm going to take care of mom.
Don't worry.
And it was like I needed to have that little moment,
Those few seconds of I've got I've got this,
Dad.
I'm going to take care of it.
Right.
So,
You know,
Those are kind of big circumstances.
I'm just going to say it that way.
Those are kind of big stories.
But when you see a shadow,
I see shadows all the time in my house.
You know,
In fact,
One night I woke up and I was in the middle of night and I needed to go get water.
And I opened the door and I saw a shadow.
I looked up,
You know,
How like you're groggy or whatever.
I look up and I go,
Oh,
Excuse me to the shadow.
I'm just like,
God,
Here I am saying excuse me to a spirit,
You know,
Because I didn't want to get in the way kind of thing.
But but these are the main things.
Right.
These are the things we need to not allow fear to take over.
We have control over how we have control.
Let me just say it to you this way.
Oh,
My God.
This is like something that's kind of being downloaded to me right now.
We have control over our over our being.
We have control over that.
So when a spirit comes in and if it scares you,
You can say,
No,
No,
No,
No,
No,
No,
No,
No,
No,
No.
You cannot be here,
You know,
Right now or whatever.
Right.
When you're starting to open up,
If you're starting to understand the whole the the the clairs and you're starting to see things,
You know,
You can say,
You know what?
And this is extreme.
I get this.
But,
You know,
I am really busy today.
So from seven to eight p.
M.
Tonight,
You can come visit me.
You know,
Making that up.
But you know what I'm saying?
Like you can set the parameters.
You have control.
If you allow them in once,
You know that you have control.
Once you know that you have control over all of it.
Then it becomes second nature,
Kind of.
Isn't that amazing?
You know,
When we open ourselves up to the possibility that this is even real.
Doesn't that make you feel amazing?
That's what I love about this work.
It's about.
Spirits wanting us to feel compassion and comfort and loved.
That's what's so much fun,
So much fun.
And some people are so scared of that.
And that's what that's why I try to do all that I do to make it so that people don't be don't get afraid of it,
Because there's really no reason to be afraid of it.
There really isn't.
You know,
The other thing I want to say is about Archangel Michael.
Archangel Michael is the great protector if you do feel fearful.
And there have been times like because I like I said,
I work at a high vibration and stuff.
There have been times like I'll tell you the one story that like freaks me out,
But it's not really.
It happened in literally two seconds.
Two seconds.
Right.
I always,
Always have invited Archangel Michael to please come in and protect me before I do any spiritual work.
Always do that.
Right.
So.
I was playing around one day and I was like,
I wonder if because when you first start developing,
You want to get into like you start to think to yourself,
Well,
Maybe I could get into like,
You know,
Police work and help people find blah,
Blah,
Blah,
Whatever.
And that sort of thing.
Or maybe I could,
You know,
I mean,
You start thinking about where your gifts can go and you start trying different things.
And that's great.
Right.
So as I was doing,
I was like,
You know,
I wonder if I could figure out where this this girl had disappeared in,
I don't know,
Another state.
I don't remember.
It was a long time ago and she had disappeared.
And I was like,
You know what?
I'm going to open myself up and I'm going to see if I'm going to see if I can find out where she is or what happened to her.
Right.
So I,
I ask Archangel Michael to come in.
I open myself up and I'm trying to all of a sudden,
I swear this is the craziest thing to me.
It was anyway,
All of a sudden I feel this horrible feeling something come in.
This all happened in a split second.
But I'm going to go slow.
And it was like it went this way and it was coming down here.
And all of a sudden it was like.
It was like,
I know that sounds crazy,
But I had like this,
This,
This flash of something.
And it was Archangel Michael.
There was a negative entity coming in and Archangel Michael came in and switched it out.
Crazy.
That was one of the most amazing stories,
Because then I started like,
Thank you,
Archangel Michael.
He is the great protector.
And I have he,
I do not do any spirit work without him being right here.
You know,
Because as much as I know I have control over all of it,
Protection is,
Is very important.
So with his sword.
Awesome.
Right.
So we are not going to meditate today in case you didn't realize.
But I just want everyone to know that this work is.
Beautiful.
And if you are having a spiritual awakening of any sort.
Don't be scared of it.
It's it's all OK.
And there are people out there,
Whether it's me or anybody else,
That can help you.
Find that way.
So that is my that is my sort of sermon for the day.
Right.
You can also go into your heart chakra,
Go into your heart chakra.
If you're having things starting to happen and it's kind of freaking you out,
You're not sure where to go.
Meditate with your heart chakra.
OK,
And meditate and place your attention on your heart chakra.
So.
So I love you all so much.
Thank you for being here today.
Namaste.
