Catherine Björksten - You Are Loved: Essential Spirit Guides and Guardians

Catherine Bjrksten was born in Finland and moved to Paris at the age of six months. Catherine always felt her connection to Spirit and people very deeply. That sensitivity did not blend well with her lifestyle and she suffered total burnout at the age of twenty-seven.

A reading with a medium at the College of Psychic Studies in London set her on a new path, and she enrolled to study Psychic Development. Thanks to her reconnection to the spirit world, Catherines life changed completely. She left her career to study Spiritual Counselling at the Holistic Healing College in London. During her studies, Catherine found herself drawn to Shamanism, which led her to embark on a vision quest in the Pyrenees (a Native American rite of passage). Upon her return, she met an Incan Wisdom Keeper, known as a Paqo. She travelled to Peru and over three years apprenticed with the Paqos to learn their ways.

Catherine has her own private practice in London, where she works as a Soul Plan reader and Awakening Guide, drawing upon her shamanic studies, psychotherapy background and spiritual counselling skills to offer a practical approach to spirituality in daily life. Along with her private practice, she also hold sessions at the College of Psychic Studies, London.

TO ALL MY RELATIONS.

As you start reading these words, I call forward your Spirit Guides who are here to support and guide you through life on the Earth plane.

I call forward those who love you unconditionally and are of the Light in your ancestry, in the animal and plant kingdoms, gods and goddesses, nature and star allies.

May you open your heart to receiving the love and support you will need to live your highest potential on Earth.

You are a blessed child of the Universe who has come here to be seen for your greatest gifts and deserve to be honoured by all the realms you exist in.

Have you ever felt a breeze when there were no open doors or windows next to you? Have you caught the shape of someone in the corner of your eye or had a deep knowing? What about a gut feeling for a situation or a person? Or have you ever experienced a spooky coincidence, such as seeing an advertisement on the side of a bus when you were asking yourself if you should go there on your next trip?

These are the nudges and the guidance that our Spirit Guides offer us on a daily basis. Our Spirit Guides are our spiritual crew who have our back while we are navigating life on Earth they have been assigned to support you and their interest is to see you win at life. Their purpose is to clue you in when you are lost, off-track or feel confused as to whats next; because Spirit Guides have mastered lessons that we are yet to go through in this lifetime on Earth and they want to support you in developing your highest potential so that you feel confident, uplifted, excited and find an overarching sense of fulfilment.

My aim in You Are Loved is to help you connect with the unseen world of spirit. The spirit world will provide you with many allies or Spirit Guides for when you are in need of support in any areas of your life. We can often feel alone in this thing called Life and we can always turn to our Spirit Guides for assistance in the way that we already call on friends and family; you should see your Spirit Guides as an additional source of guidance and surely that is something to be welcomed?

We will look into what and who Spirit Guides are, as well as how you can find and recognise them. You will learn how to spot the signs that your Guides are online; how they reach you and how you reach them; in other words, how you can build a steady relationship with them.

Spirit Guides can help you to connect more deeply with your inner compass, which will support you in feeling more at peace and empowered with the decisions you make and the direction you take in life.

Connecting with your Spirit Guides will also sharpen your intuition, so you will trust yourself more and know that you have a guidance system that will support you in making choices that will put you on a life path that is more joyful and less stressful. When you follow the signs and listen to your heart, you cannot go wrong. Life will flow with more ease as you learn to trust yourself.

The mission of your Spirit Guides is to remind you of your greatness. Your Spirit Guides will help you to get a better understanding of who you truly are. As you deepen your relationship with them, you will deepen your relationship with yourself, and you will uncover and remember aspects of yourself.

They are great allies to have when we are inquiring about our life path or purpose, answering questions such as: what have I come to do here on Earth? What job would fit best with my life purpose? What is the most supportive environment for me to live in the buzzing and creative city, mellow country, cleansing sea, higher perspective mountain, or deep forest?

Spirit Guides can help us see what we can sometimes not see for ourselves: a persons intention, a higher perspective of a situation (such as potential job opportunities or a romantic relationship), or the energy of a living space such as a flat. Think of your Spirit Guides as multidimensional sounding boards that you can use in everyday situations. This can take the form of questions relating to a person you are dating, a job offer you are considering or a new friend or housemate; from deciding what you are going to eat to whom you spend your time with; to living in which area will benefit you the most.

Ultimately, our Spirit Guides are training us to realise that we have an innate guidance system that will never fail us. They help us realise that we are like diamonds: multifaceted and talented. They help us remember what comes to us with ease and grace, and what brings us joy, by pointing us in the right direction as we start working with them. They remind us that it is all already within us; we just need to remember.

Part of the experience that we have with our Spirit Guides is feeling that we are loved beyond measure, unconditionally. No matter what we have done, we are held in deep love by our Guides. They know us better than anyone because they can see the purity of our soul and our capacity as humans. This is what they are here to remind us of. When you are feeling anxious or need a little push to step fully into your power and brilliance, they will be there, cheering, setting up signposts to guide you towards fulfilment, joy, love and success. What they ask of you is trust and faith.

This book will teach you how to become proficient in spirit speak, so that you can always get the support you need throughout lifes ebbs and flows. And that, my dear reader, will be priceless. Learning how to bring in your Guides will expand your relationship with life and provide you with resources and support that you didnt know you had. We are, after all, interconnected humans, animals, plants, trees, stars the entire cosmos. When they say that you are an expression of the Universe, you really are.

I will show you how to connect with your Guides and build a relationship that will enhance your intuition, your trust in yourself and in the Universe; you will understand that you are not alone and are always supported. As you feel this support from your Guides, you will develop a sense of safety within yourself that will give you the confidence to navigate pretty much any situation that presents itself. When you know that you can rely on your intuition, you know that you can rely on yourself. You will need less external validation and approval from others, because you will know what is right for you. And this trust will, ultimately, bring you a more peaceful and fulfilling life.
