The Spirited Life with Ashley Strong

Who's in your energy field? What are the signs someone is hanging out in your energy field, and how do you identify who is pulling at your energy? A few signs are a specific person constantly popping in your head, dreaming of them, their name randomly coming up in conversation, and a heaviness that you just can't shake! You see, we are all energy, and energy knows no space or time. If you're thinking of someone often, they will feel it and vice versa! In this episode, pulled from my Youtube channel, I will teach you how to identify if someone is in your energy field and see who is tugging at your energy! We will go over who you have not released from your energy and how withholding forgiveness will keep them stuck there! I will describe a practice on how to find out who is still in your energy; how to release and heal; and how to ground, clear, connect and protect your energy.

What is it like to be a medium? Interesting, to say the least, and it comes with a lot of responsibility too!  Not only do I have to make sure my personal feelings and advice don't get in the way of spirit's messages, but I am also not allowed to filter! I have to say things the way they say them, or they won't give me any messages until I do. Trust me; I've tried!  When I am channeling, sometimes I see or feel something that doesn't make sense to me.  I used to try skipping past these weird or uncomfortable messages until I realized I am just the translator, and my job is to deliver the messages whether they make sense to me or not.  So, I started delivering those messages exactly as they came through. My clients resonate with the messages almost every single time, or they write me later to tell me it clicked in!  Being a medium kind of rocks!  I get to help people heal, we go deep into their inner child and spirit, and the feeling of the transformation and healing that comes through is just inexplainable.  Sometimes, however, being a medium is heavy!  Sometimes I feel differently or have conflicting advice for my client than spirit delivers. Sometimes I agree my clients should be mad, angry, or resentful, and I, as a human, find it hard not to see the way they do.  I've been asked a few times, "what do you do if you disagree with the messages spirit gives you? What do you do if you are uncomfortable or think it's not a good fit?" Interesting to think about, right? Find out in this episode how I handle it and my advice for other practicing intuitive!  _________________________________________________________ Want to deepen your journey?

Self-Love Is NOT The Same As Self-Acceptance.  Self-Love and self-acceptance, what is the difference? Are they the same? Which is easier to do? Self-love is, for many, much easier than self-acceptance. It's easier to treat yourself well, be kind to yourself, and say loving things than it is to let yourself be vulnerable and truly seen. We often hold ourselves back by wondering if we are enough, pretty enough, productive enough, smart enough...but when you accept yourself, you KNOW you as you are is simply enough. Even when we love ourselves, we are often trying to present to others as we want them to see us or think they want to see us.  We can love ourselves and not accept and appreciate all levels of our being. We can love ourselves and still not uphold or even set personal boundaries.  When we accept and appreciate ourselves, we can finally bust through the blocks we thought self-love would dissolve.  Deep dive into the difference between self-love and self-acceptance in today's episode!  ____________________________________________________________ Still not sure which is your strongest intuitive gift after listening to the podcast?

Letting Go Of Control To Get What You Want. You should know something about me; I am NOT a patient person. In fact, when I decided it was time to get happy, I wanted it to happen right away. I tried to control my journey. When I started to meditate, I immediately wanted amazing messages with exceptional clarity. I tried to control my skillset. And even now, when I decide something gets to happen for me, I don’t love the wait time between the decision and the manifestation. Do you see a pattern? While it looks like what I need is patience, what I am actually searching for is control. I’ll go ahead and say it I am a recovering control freak, and hopefully, after this episode, you will be too! The truth is we are all trying to control someone or something. We try to control how people see us or if they will like us by the way we present ourselves to others. We often hide from who we are when we do this. Often we try to control other people by demanding or being upset when they respond or react a certain way. We try to control our manifestations by focusing on them so much and declaring it has to come in a specific way and time. We lack patience when it comes to developing our intuition and get frustrated when it doesn’t happen when and how we want. We try to control how other people think by forcing our opinions on them. We try to control our thoughts and get upset at ourselves when we can’t. My question to you is, is your need for control controlling you? When we surrender our need for control, we allow space for our manifestations and intuitive messages to come in. Take a look at mindset work and all of the coaches who tell you to “just control your thoughts.” How well does that work for you? We can not control our thoughts, other drivers, or life situations, but we can control how we respond to them. When you learn to surrender your need for control and instead decide to become the conscious observer of your thoughts and reactions, you can control how long you let those negative thoughts stick around. This is how people get happy, manifest, and create those “magical” lives. In today’s episode, I will teach you the sneaky way your ego-mind tries to control your daily life and how to start to break the habit! Surrender your control, and life becomes much more beautiful and magical! As you let go of control, life starts to respond to your new energy instead of you responding to it! Looking to heal patterns, shift relationships, surrender control, and develop a deeper relationship with yourself? Join me in Sacred Self-Healing!

How do you know if a psychic is real or not? What are the red flags, and what should you look out for? Are any psychics real? Are any mediums legit? What are psychic red flags? I am mortified to say that when I was 19, I was totally scammed by a "psychic" who told me I had a curse and would never find love. Today I share with you my story in hopes of helping you avoid similar situations. In the past, I've written a couple of articles about red flags you should look for when choosing to seek guidance in a psychic, medium, or intuitive. I get emails all the time from readers and people I've never even worked with asking me if certain psychics and messages from other "practitioners" are legitimate. People tell me stories of how psychics used fear to manipulate them into thinking they had curses that only that psychic could remove. These people cold read and take advantage of their client's vulnerabilities, and it makes my blood boil! Today I want to bring light to who these people are and how they work so you can avoid them! It's easy to spot a fake or uncaring intuitive, and I will teach you how! Episode 9 goes a lot into ethics of intuitive work, how I once got scammed myself (mortifying story by the way), and the red flags that you can look out for in the future when working with someone intuitive. _____________________________________________________________________________ ***** At this time, I am not doing individual full session mediumship readings because I am truly focused on coaching, helping others tap into their intuition, and giving them my full energy and attention. My coaching clients do get full session mediumship readings with me in their package. If this is something that you're interested in, please check out my private coaching packages below! 3 Month Intuitive Coaching Package  6 Month Intuitive Coaching Package  (Best for those who are ready to dive in!

Have you ever wondered how people get clear guidance from their intuition?  Do you think getting intuitive messages is only for "special" people, people who practice mediumship, or are "psychic"?  The truth is anyone can and should be tapping into their intuition on a daily basis! My intuition is the guidepost for my life and after working with many clients it's now their's too!   In this episode, I'm going to teach you how to tap into your intuition and notice the subtle hits and shifts that come through for you. I'm going to talk to you about how I noticed when my intuition was first speaking to me even when I didn't think it was making sense and how it all eventually came together in ways I could have never expected.  Join me as I explain how to get clear guidance from your intuition! We are going to go through a complete lesson on six different ways to tap into your intuition today, right after you listen to this podcast! I hope you love today's episode and utilize it as soon as you can!  Remember, if you want to tap into your intuition, the best way is to learn how your intuitive senses speak to you. I can give you the tools, but I can only take you so far as you're willing to go! So, if you are ready to really dive in and learn how your intuition subtly and abruptly speaks to you, then it's time for us to work together!  Join me in private coaching or the intuitive development course!

Today we talk all about the four primary psychic abilities; how they appear, how you can utilize them, and how to strengthen them. We all have intuition, and it's ALWAYS speaking to us, but that doesn't mean the way my intuition speaks to me is the way yours speaks to you! Frustration comes for many when they try to tap into their intuition and hardly get anywhere. In my years of developing my intuition and teaching others to tap into theirs, I have realized that we must strengthen and hone in on the right muscles (aka the right "Clair") to make significant progress. Join me in today's episode to talk about how to know which is your strongest Clair, work with it, and enhance it! Still not sure which is your strongest intuitive gift after listening to the podcast?

Our chakra system directly corresponds to the physical body! When one energy center (aka chakra) is out of alignment, more often than not we will have a physical response as well. In today's episode I explain a bit about how the chakras correspond to the physical body and how they get unbalanced.  You can also find today's clip on my Youtube channel!  Still not sure which is your strongest intuitive gift after listening to the podcast?

Who Are Mediums and Psychics Actually Talking To? How Does Mediumship Work?Who Are Mediums and Psychics Actually Talking To? How Does Mediumship Work? Are mediums and psychics crazy, like who are they actually talking to? Where does their information come from? Are they actually talking to dead people? How does mediumship work? Today's episode of The Spirited Life is an extraaaa special one because it was live recorded, which means you can watch it on my Facebook and YouTube, right below, or listen to it on the podcast as usual!  I repeatedly get one specific question from readers, clients, AND naysayers that is the exact same... In this episode, I deep-dive into the specifics of who I am actually connecting to during our sessions, whether it's mediumship or coaching and how it works; and how YOU CAN TOO!  I truly hope you enjoy this episode and that it helps you understand a bit better how intuition, mediumship, the law of attraction, and similar concepts all work together and how we make the connections and deliver the messages! If this sounds like something you're interested in learning more about, I would LOVE to work with you in private coaching (best experience), through self-paced courses (do it in your own time & budget friendly), and mediumship readings (depending on availability!)

How To Find Yourself Again  How well do you know yourself? You might think you know yourself better than anyone or that, of course, you know you….you ARE YOU. I want to challenge this belief and tell you that with every season of life, a new you is born while integrated patterns and versions of the past still play a significant role.  In my 20s, I realized I never knew who I was and that I was always living life as a version of myself that I thought would make other people more comfortable.  I chose to get to know myself through inner work, meditation, healing my inner child, and forgiveness of myself and others. I was and still am so proud of that work because, at the time, I didn’t have a mentor and had no clue what I was doing or where it would take me.  The day I realized that I couldn’t even say “I love you” to myself in the mirror broke my heart, but opened it up at the same time. I realized at that moment that I had a significant amount of work to do, so I went all in.  Since then, I have become a mother and a business owner and have had many life successes, challenges, and failures. It is said that every seven years, we become a new version of ourselves and reawaken (hopefully at a higher level). Fun fact: Did you know that you are, in fact, an entirely new body every seven years? It’s nerdy but pretty cool if you’re interested!  All of this to say I’ve been awakening, shedding layers, healing, and rediscovering myself over the past year. It’s been just as hard, if not harder than it was the first time, but still, the goal remains the same. Do the work and find my best version again so I can help others do the same.  A common theme with myself and clients lately has been deep inner child work, specifically with the teenage/adolescent versions of ourselves. As we all know….teenagers aren’t for the weak…, and neither is this phase of healing.  It’s about lasting growth, discipline, rebellion, and fully becoming the you that you were meant to be UNAPOLOGETICALLY so that those who are meant to connect with you can find and be with your most authentic version.  When you show up authentically and know and love who you are, there is a big mental weight that is lifted when you aren’t playing a character in your own life anymore!  Enjoy this podcast episode on Finding Yourself again and what true healing looks and feels like!  And don’t forget to join us in my 6 week group coaching program Elevate Your Fate starting on March 26th at 2:00 PM EST.  Register Here! We will cover: Realigning with your inner self and understanding how to check in with your own energy!  Understanding, aligning, opening, and balancing the chakras Subconscious connection class Automatic writing to connect with the higherself, inner child, and spirit team!  All about manifesting, the power of intention, and more!  Full question and answer class! 

How do we begin to feel energy? What does it mean when our ears are ringing, or we get a sudden gut feeling that pulls us in a different direction? These are the types of questions that clients bring to me all the time! Today's episode was a live recorded question-and-answer session with my clients, fans, and readers!

The questions in this episode come from your peers and those seeking to understand their intuition and all about spirituality and psychic awareness!

There are multiple reasons why you’re afraid of your intuition! Some obvious some not so obvious! Listen to this episode to hear how to take control of your intuition and allow it to help you FLOURISH! I was afraid of being a medium. I was fearful of my intuition, the things I felt, and the fact that I was possibly a crazy person. When you're a strong and unmanaged intuitive, your gifts can feel more like a curse than a blessing! Throughout my life, my dreams were petrifying. No really, I had sleep paralysis from "energetic vampires!" In my waking hours, I constantly felt watched, listened to, stood over, and more. Even when home alone, I would hear noises, music, and voices. Talk about overwhelming! The older I got, the better I got at ignoring it (or so I thought). My intuition scared me because I didn't know what it was. I didn't know if ghosts were real or if I was crazy. I didn't understand why I had such vivid dreams, and others didn't. I didn't understand why I was obsessed with scary movies, psychics, and creepy stories. It wasn't for the entertainment, but something drew me to them! Combine all this and the constant feeling of anxiety that comes with unmanaged intuitive gifts, and you've got yourself a pretty good recipe for depression! You're not alone; mediumship, giving readings, intuitive hits - all of it can be scary when you don't know what you're doing or dealing with! Here's what I can promise you when you get a grip on it - when you learn to manage it - when you control it, and it doesn't control you - it is THE MOST MAGICAL EXPERIENCE THIS LIFE HAS TO OFFER! Synchronicities happen, life flows, you love deeper, you trust more, you're simply guided, and you know you're not alone. So, listen to this episode and find out why you're afraid of stepping into all that you are! Listen Here! Don't forget, I have a course that will help even seasoned psychic mediums overcome fear and adopt practices that will preserve their energy and keep them connected only to who they WANT to connect to during readings! Enroll Now! The Intuitive Development Course is for beginners to seasoned practitioners! The MEdiumship Diving Deeper Course teaches you to give safe and accurate readings and should be taken AFTER the Intuitive Development Course!

How do we truly begin to heal and let go of the past? Over the years, I have learned that to truly heal; we must release. Releasing in order to heal means forgiving, setting ourselves free, calling our energy back, and letting go of trauma bonds. One main way to access this level of healing is through the Inner Child and the Higher Self! What is the inner child, and why is it important?“Essentially, our inner child is the forgiving, free-spirited part of us that still feels and experiences life as a child. But, just as it carries the positive aspects of being a child (like innocence, joy and creativity), it also carries the wounding of our past.” - Vas Touranis Therapists will often guide you to look at and work with your inner child however, Spirit guides us to truly heal and release. Our higher self will guide the inner child to visit the moments the subconscious still clings to and then call those pieces back to our physical body and Spirit. This process is also known in shamanic practices as a soul retrieval! When you work with your inner child from a spiritual perspective, you actually collect and call back missing pieces of you. As humans, we don’t realize that we leave energy everywhere we go. When we have traumatic or painful experiences, we often leave pieces of our energy/spirit in those moments. We are still (spiritually speaking) in those moments, which is why they become so hard to let go of and affect us subtly throughout life. When we journey back to them through our inner child healing, we can Show up as who we needed in that moment Say what we needed to say to those who hurt us Hold our inner child, heal with him/her, and collect the energy left behind to make ourselves whole again. All about the inner child How to connect with the inner child How to call back your missing energy How to let go/forgive/rise above the patterns and pains that pop up and hold you back How to love and nurture your inner child How to start showing up as the person you needed when you were younger Self-forgiveness And so much more! The process is heavy, but the release is impeccable. It’s life-changing - I would say it will give you your life back! There is so much that comes up when working with the inner child that we don’t consciously even realize we are holding on to! Listen to today’s episode and learn to connect with your inner child!

How to create more mental space? Mental fatigue can be physically paralyzing. It feels like you're tired, but you know you slept. It's like you can faceplant on a tiled floor and sleep for days like you are thinking of everything, yet nothing all at once. Mental fatigue can have you feeling like you're stuck yet spinning out of control. So much of our mental fatigue is created by the massive amounts of "invisible labor" that we do all day, every day. What is invisible labor, you ask? It's ruminating on all the things you have to do and carrying that mental load with you daily. Invisible labor is thinking of everything you must do, like "I need to go grocery shopping; what did my son say he needs for school? What about that birthday party, did I get a gift? I should reach out to the mom and see what he likes. Ok, kid 1 has this karate, and kid 2 has dance class at the same time; how do I be in two places at once? The husband said he would make dinner tonight, but what will everyone want to eat? I have to go to the store and get XYZ. If I go here at this time, I can make it back to finish work at this time. Oh, I need to make the doctor's appointments, and I still need to send those emails."The consistent replaying of thoughts such as these is invisible labor and takes a MASSIVE amount of cognitive energy every. single. day. It always leads to mental fatigue, which can look like: Brain fog Unexplained exhaustion Feeling burnt out Feeling overwhelmed Feeling paralyzed Zoning out/disassociating Beating yourself up for not completing tasks even though you're doing all the things Many of my clients come to me feeling this way, wanting to connect more deeply with themselves and their intuition or spirit team but feel that they can't find a second in the day for it! They feel overwhelmed by the already neverending list of to-do's and can't see how they could possibly add one more thing, much less something that is "not productive."Let me tell you a secret I learned a long time ago; meditation is productive because it clears and creates mental space to focus on what needs to come next and allows for creative solutions to FIND YOU! I help my clients identify where their burnout is coming from, and how to do a "brain dump" to get things off of their mental plate and create more mental space. After this, we work through their schedule together to find space for self-care and spiritual development. It can be done, but first we need to learn how to create the mental space to allow us to receive! In today's Spirited Life Podcast Episode, I talk about how to create a "results list" instead of a to-do list and how to create an effective "brain dump" to create more mental space and eliminate mental fatigue and spiritual burnout!

5 Ways To Make Your Spiritual Connections MUCH Easier! I remember when I was starting to develop my mediumship gifts; it was equal parts scary, frustrating, and exciting! Frightening for so many reasons. Would people think I'm crazy? Was I crazy? What if something dangerous came through? It was exciting because, duh! Frustrating because there were no clear-cut steps laid out for me. I didn't know about spirit guides, grounding, and protection at the time. I certainly didn't realize there was a process to connecting with your spirit team. I wish I had known what I know now; it would have made the whole thing much more straightforward and effective. Before I keep going, please know that patience is part of the practice.  Often, Spirit will give you a ton of breadcrumbs and then go silent. This happens when we have been given a lesson and still need to implement it. Once we do, we will be given so much more and at a higher level! It's so magical; this stuff lights me up, friend! Learning to be guided instead of trying to steer a ship with no wheel will change your life forever! My job is to help you learn how to do it! 5 Ways To Make Your Spiritual Connections MUCH Easier! Raise Your Vibration Meditation (yes, it's essential) Intention Automatic Writing Be very intentional Today on The Spirited Life Podcast, I am going into the 5 ways to make your intuitive journey much smoother, more effective, and hopefully, a lot less turbulent than mine was! Listen Here! And remember to really get cha going; The Intuitive Development Course has everything you need even as a seasoned intuitive!

Unpopular opinion, meditation can make us judge ourselves even more than we would have without it. Yep, I said it! Meditation is supposed to take us to a peaceful place, a higher vibration, and provide a sense of connection with the self. It's about gaining clarity and calm. However, sometimes, depending on how you're looking at it, meditation can have you judging yourself harder than before you started. We all do it! We judge our meditations, and we judge ourselves for not being able to meditate the "right" way. Listen, I teach people to connect with their spirit guides and higher selves. I also teach people to practice their mediumship and Psychic abilities. To do these things, yes, you need to learn to meditate, but this is not the sole reason for mediation. If that's the only thing you're using it for, then yea, you're meditating wrong. Meditation is for you to gain clarity, calm, deeper awareness, and connectedness with all of your human experience. Most of the time, when we label a meditation as good or bad, it's because we did not "achieve" the state of bliss or connectedness we set out to. Some days my meditations are deep and trance-like. Other times I'm looking at the black behind my eyes, wondering how much time I have left and thinking of everything I have to do. Both are equally as important! When you show up even if you have a monkey mind, you're training your mind, body, and subconscious that you're worthy of these few moments of silence. You're also simultaneously telling your spirit team you're available for them! When you meditate consistently and around the same time, big things happen! It becomes easier to drop into a "good meditation" because your subconscious is ready for it. Your spirit team will know it's time to meet you there, and you won't have to try so hard because you've created your own mini "vortex." Consistent meditation has so many juicy mental health effects. You begin to notice people, situations, and traffic don't trigger you as much as before. You get healthier all the way around. Your body will thank you as the tension melts away! You live in more of a flow state. You start realizing that no meditation is good or bad. They are all important. So if you could, just show up for yourself daily, ok? Whether you sit in your own energy (which I highly recommend), connect with your guides, clear your chakras, or mix em' all up, just show up for yourself and stop judging yourself so hard, babe! All meditations and all time spent to better yourself is absolutely perfect! Listen to my new podcast episode, Good Vs. Bad Meditations!  Love, Me

Awakening is a beautiful, wonderful, and confusing process. It's shedding the skin you've worn for the world to reveal who you are at your core. It guides you towards acceptance of the true self and reveals the beautiful, soft, loving soul that you are!  While incredibly beautiful, awakening can feel messy and isolating at times.  You see, most of us are conditioned into becoming who we THINK others need us to be. We take on beliefs, personalities and operate in manners that we believe will make other people happy and comfortable.  In a way, before our awakenings, we are simply playing a role, living out a character that we have created alongside society, our family, and friends.  Eventually, we start feeling the resistance to this character and, during awakening, are led deeper into the true self and further away from the role we've been playing.  During this process, we can feel as if it's hard to connect with those around us. We may feel like the people we love are falling away, and our "old life" isn't fitting in with our new.  Today's episode is about how to recognize changes in relationships and why they happen during awakening and transformation!  To find out if you're navigating an awakening, check out the articles below.  Awakening And Relationships -  What To Do When Your Partner Isn't Awakening But You Are? - Guest Post Amanda Meder! 34 Signs You're Awakening Now!  All Articles On Awakening By Ashley  To navigate and understand all aspects levels and what to expect when shifting through awakening, be sure to check out the Intuitive Development Course! Here you will learn about fear, doubt, self-reflection, and connection, how to work with and understand all aspects of your intuition, and more! 

Is the universe testing you? Do you ever feel like you can't catch a break no matter what you do and how hard you try?  I get it! I used to think life was out to get me, but then once I got more positive, I shifted to "the universe loves to test me."  I always tell people DONT ASK if anything else can go wrong because that is like asking for more challenges!  Challenges, you ask? Yes! Challenges!  A few years ago, I was talking to my spirit guides about the "tests" they had been bringing to me. I didn't understand how I could be doing everything they wanted me to do, such as advocating for mediums and psychics, giving readings, doing my inner work, etc., and still  being served with constant "tests."  Then, as clear as day, I heard, "not tests challenges - opportunities to see your growth."  "It feels like tests," I responded.  But no, what I was shown was much more profound than my ego trying to tell me I wasn't good enough to pass these universal tests. I was shown that if looked at as challenges, I could see that I was being shown just how far I had come! I was being guided to see how I handled situations better than before, how I didn't get so worked up, how I kept my cool, and how I saw the patterns and could choose differently.  Those challenges were lessons and opportunities to see how my hard work had paid off. I was gifted with those experiences to see my life from a different perspective.  Once noticed and integrated, spirit would level me right up! Meaning that I would get to coast for some time, then get new lessons and opportunities!  Little shifts in my mindset greatly impacted my life and how I moved through my spiritual journey and levels!  Give this episode a listen and let me know if it resonates with you!
