Gratitudes

Life is filled with synchronicity and divine guidance. It was one of those spontaneous late-night conversations with a dear friend of mine that finally brought it all together. Anne Raymer, who has always been a woman I have admired for her determination and insight, strongly encouraged me to send an e-mail to her literary agent. Working with Lisa Hagan has been a transformative experience. For years I had been giving my clients information on how to deal with that inner knowingness called intuition. With her guidance and advice, I gathered up everything that I had written and taught over the years and created it here. The Intuitive Dance: Building, Protecting, and Clearing Your Energy is the result of her belief in me and my work. For this I will always be grateful.

I also wish to extend my gratitude to my husband, Bert, for his ongoing support, encouragement, and endless hours of initial editing. I have also been very blessed to have children and a sister who support what I do. Their stories were an important part of this book. The many experiences we have shared have been an integral part in my personal growth and acceptance of what to do with my intuitive abilities.

The stories that are related here are a gift from many of my clients who eagerly agreed to share their stories. Their personal information has been changed to protect their privacy. Their bravery to face what lies beneathto find their own inner truthnever ceases to inspire me.

The research study called Three Simple Things was developed, administered, and complied in cooperation with two of my colleagues, Roxana Roshon, PhD, and Dr. Michelle Cali, ND. Their wisdom and flexibility to make this happen despite hectic schedules, weddings, funerals, babies, and managing our practices through a major renovation made it all come together like clockwork. It is amazing what teamwork will pull together.

I also wish to thank all the volunteers who participated in our research study, Three Simple Things. Everyone involved in the study found it to be enlightening and fun. Many of the volunteers reported at the end of the study that learning the techniques was a transformative experience for them. To everyone involved in this study, I extend my deepest gratitude.

One day a new client came into my office, and before we could get started, she told me it was time to write my next book. I laughed out loud. I didnt tell her that I had been waiting for a sign to begin writing another book. Rose Philips, you are too precious for words. I have loved our conversations and appreciated all of your editorial support for the manuscript. You are truly a wise woman of the world. I am privileged to know you.

Along the way I have had the honor of working with some amazing young women who are our hope for the future. Annyse Balkwill and Kathy Bartram-Flood, it is a joy to watch you both grow in your abilities and share your wise woman ways. In particular, I would like to thank Annyse for her time, clarity, and insights that were so enthusiastically offered when I was completing the manuscript for this book.
