We are just past All Hallows Eve, aka Halloween, now the second biggest holiday of the year in the US. It’s a sacred season in earth-based European spirituality. A time when the veils between worlds are thinnest. (Our All Saints and Souls Days are an outgrowth of that.)
Auspiciously, this All Saints/Souls Day is also the one year anniversary of my making a powerful, direct connection to my Source, getting life purpose information in a way that I never had before. Learning to teach the True Purpose process (created by Tim Kelley). has been a big, joyous ride.
Perhaps it is because of this, I notice our spirit helpers (saints, dead relatives, spirit) and connection to Source, seem closer. The messages are coming in stronger and. Things ARE flowing and moving faster.
Intentions (conscious and unconscious) are manifesting. We start to see what is/isn’t working. Life feels so full, overloaded, and we must take care, or be totally consumed. When we do, life feels more effortless, as actions are inspired and unfold more quickly. The article Change Your Thoughts, Change Your Life (below) is to guide you into that second realm as often as possible. It is time to step up and claim ourselves and our magnificent lives. Aren’t you feeling more yearning to live a dream that has simmered long enough?
Below are some events I want to be sure you know about: I am thrilled to offer an on-going, bi-monthly meditation group. Drop in anytime. There is a mini-workshop about finding and living Divine Purpose, and a full day retreat where we get to really dive in and get some juicy results. If you don’t live locally, I would be MORE than happy to come to you and offer these to you and your community. Let me know, and we can cook up something amazing. And there are tele-classes coming, too!
Are you living your Big Dream yet? What’s in your way? Perhaps it’s finally time to lose the confusion, frustration and yearning? Hopefully, this inspires you on the path to your Radiant Clarity.
Change Your Thoughts, Change Your Life
Last month we addressed how Outcome Follows Energy: The Power of Intention
Rev. Michael Beckwith calls it Intention Deficit Disorder. Upleveling our intentionality up can change things powerfully and profoundly in no time. Hopefully you noticed the changes that result with that intention shift.
Then we notice that some areas do not seem to improve. Pesky problems that don’t seem to change, despite all the focus and practices. This points to our underlying thoughts and assumptions about how the world works and treats us.
Our attitudes alone can take a difficult situation better and a bad mood can make a great situation sour fast. Our thoughts and feelings drive our experience. We create our reality.
Paying attention to thoughts help, but like a fish in water we are surrounded by thought, and can’t control them all. Reaching for a higher thought helps, and that one attitude can shift a situation from bad to better to best, by taking that simple leap.
And some things just don’t change by our wanting them to. We get the same grumpy boss, abusive boyfriend, financial troubles or weight that won’t come off. These patterns (positive or negative) get created by programs from when we are quite young. We develop ways of seeing the world, creating a certain expectation of our life experience. Good ones we like and keep, the others we call limiting beliefs.
When we are aware of them we can start to clear them, when they are conscious. Affirmations, prayer, ritual, Life Vision Collage, journaling and meditation can all reprogram beliefs.
Despite all the hard work we do, sometimes the outer reality in key areas does not change. The unconscious program or belief is running your experience. Look at your life and see your beliefs in physical form.
Several great processes shift limiting beliefs by bringing the unconscious into consciousness. Then they can be worked with, creating results in tangible, real-world form.
I use everything I teach, and have been having great success with Expressive Art, the Belief Closet Process (link to Lion’s website), Jungian Active Imagination, and Meridian Therapies (such as EFT). Contact me or try these on your own (see sidebar) and tell me how your life improves. I’ll be shocked if it doesn’t, because these tools work.
Find more joy, clarity, hope and possibilities. Change you life from the inside out. Expand your vision for yourself. You are so worth it and your life is waiting for you.

NEW IDEA: Invite me to visit, YOU come free. Gather 9 friends at a location of your choice to a day-long, signature Radiant Clarity Soul Spa event and you attend for no charge. (Travel and accommodations not included.) This would include a series of experiences customized to your group. Some themes include: Living Your Divine Life NOW, Awakening Your Divine Connection, Accessing Your Soul Purpose, Soul Spa Day (spiritual rejuvenation for the weary modern life). Activities could include a Soul Art project (easy, fun and gorgeous), guided & silent meditation, nature connection and Body Wisdom Movement Therapy. The sky’s the limit, but I have some great ideas to start us off.
Better YET: Radiant Clarity VIP Days: Hunger for your purpose and don’t want to wait? Don’t want to mess with groups or classes? Here’s a better idea: just you and me, all day, finding your connection to Source and your Divine Purpose. It is like a day at the spa, for your soul. Just you, me, and your custom-designed retreat. Spa services, energy treatments, creative arts, spiritual practices and skilled guidance equal rejuvenation for mind/body and spirit. How cool is that? I have 3 slots available for November.

Could this be as good as it sounds? Here’s what participants have said:
My life changes for the better when I have participated in an event led by Claire. She is a very talented Art Therapist with gifts leading guided imagery and collage. Martha S., Grants Pass OR
I admire Claire’s creative process. She integrates her own life’s path into her art work and brings the wisdom of her experience and intuition to her clients and workshop participants. She is sensitive to the process of others. She is a skilled listener and facilitator who is attuned to the spoken and unspoken needs of others and does not impose any belief system. She asks key questions and brings her observations tempered with compassion. I wholeheartedly recommend Claire Sierra as a person with integrity, wisdom and finely tuned counseling skills. Marcy T., Cave Junction, OR
Just a belated thank you for the presentation that you did last week. I liked everything about it… seriously, you really hit the mark; hope you have heard as much positive feedback as I have. K. Miller, Executive Director, Grants Pass, OR
I hung the collage we did at our retreat in the entryway, so that each time I opened the door it was the first thing I looked at. The size, and design appealed to me, and the messages I chose were important to be reminded of regularly…. I realized the collage had real value in my life and served as a tangible reminder not only of daily personal aspirations, but also of a very special weekend with my dearest friends. It catches my eye and reminds me of the values to strive towards. A very belated thanks again for making our “bachelorette” weekend retreat so memorable. Tamara G., Arcata, Calif
Thank you again for coming to Sage College and presenting a really special program. I hearing that many of the women who attended are still talking about it, and even spreading the “good news”. For me it was beautiful, touching and profound. T. St George, Troy NY
We are all very grateful for your direction and expertise with our daughters and appreciate your skill and patience with the mothers as well. Hope you are doing lots of the same type of ceremonies for other women as well. Marietta Y., Chester Springs, PA
