Last week's report and all previous reports
COMMENTARY: THE GIFT OF GRATITUDE Psychologists and practitioners of mindfulness tell us that cultivating the habit of gratitude is one of the fastest ways of improving our mood, our relationships, our health, and our ability to cope with stress and adversity. It strengthens family and social bonds, fosters a positive work environment, improves job satisfaction, increases employee engagement, and reduces stress. Employees who receive gratitude from their supervisors are more likely to feel valued and satisfied in their roles.
But the benefits don't stop there. Gratitude is a gift that gives twice - it blesses the giver and the receiver. A thankful heart is one of the few things we can take with us when we transition.
We are told by out-of-body explorers, spiritual teachers, and by people reporting from the afterlife through mediums that the conditions we find ourselves in when we die are exponentially better for those who make an effort to cultivate an attitude of generosity and positivity - and gratitude is fundamental to that.

HOW GRATEFULNESS WORKS: HANS WILHELM
A simple but powerful explanation of how this tool for happiness works. For more videos from Hans Wilhelm go to www.LIFEexplained.com
REMEMBERING DEPARTED LOVED ONES DURING THE HOLIDAYS
We know from thousands of communications with spirit that our loved ones and spirit friends draw especially close to us at times of family celebrations. Sheri Perl, creator of 'The Prayer Registry' has this advice for those whose loved ones have recently transitioned. "On holidays and special occasions, set a place at the table or remember to make a toast to this person. Acknowledge the elephant in the room by bringing it right out into the open. If you're not afraid to talk about your loved one, friends and family won't be either. And if they are, at least you are setting the right example by putting your loved one front and centre."
NAVY DIVER DROWNS: LEARNS ABOUT GRATITUDE AND LIFE PURPOSE
David Bennett shares the story of his Near-Death Experience. He drowned during a severe storm off the California coast in 1983 while acting as chief engineer aboard the navy research vessel "Aloha." Later he was diagnosed with stage 4 lung cancer and by applying the lesson of gratitude that he had learned in his life review he survived. As he says in his book, "If you’re going to be grateful, you’ve gotta be grateful for All of Life”
"THE REALITIES OF HEAVEN: FIFTY SPIRITS DESCRIBE YOUR FUTURE HOME" This highly-recommended book is a collection of statements about life hereafter as made between 1852 and 2001 by spirits who speak from experience. Miles Edward Allen has examined and reviewed 50 excellent sources and selected, collated, and critiqued nearly a thousand descriptions that provide a fascinating and enlightening multifaceted picture of the heavenly and hellish realms that face us all when we leave the physical world. We love the dedication of the book: "to the mediums, editors, and publishers who had the compassion, wisdom and resolve to publish the original works, and to the spirits who cared enough to return in service to humanity".

THREE PHYSICIANS SHARE THEIR NEAR-DEATH EXPERIENCES
Three medical doctors: Dr. Jean Hausheer M.D., Dr. Anoop Kumar M.D., and Dr. Peter Cummings M.D., join together on a panel to discuss their Near-Death experiences.
INSTRUMENTAL TRANSCOMMUNICATION Hans F. Kennis from the Netherlands experimented with EVP (Electronic Voice Phenomena) from 1973 with good results. From 2008 onwards he experimented with photographing ITC images in water, combined with simultaneous EVP. On his excellent website ITC EXPERIMENTS, he gives details of 33 scientists who studied ITC and were convinced of its reality. He also outlines 3 cases where he was able to get evidential pictures of people, two from centuries past and one known to him, combined with EVP verification of their identity: 1. Robert de Bar 2. John Dee and 3. Jos Spijkstra
You can read his considered conclusion about EVP and ITC after 47 years of systematic research on this page and the next.
GEORGE CHAPMAN AND WILLIAM LANG George Chapman (1921-2006) was a British medium who would go into trance and temporarily "become" Dr. William Lang (pictured), an ophthalmic surgeon who had died in 1937. For 60 years they worked as a team to heal patients of all kinds of diseases. Author J Bernard Hutton, a satisfied patient, interviewed 153 other former patients and gathered verifications outlined in his 1966 book, Healing Hands: The Amazing True Story of a Spirit Doctor. Parapsychologist Roy Stemman, collaborated with Chapman to write more about their partnership in Surgeon From Another World (1978) which was updated and expanded in 2017.
When asked about his mediumistic mission, Chapman once said: "The real purpose of Dr. Lang’s spirit return, I am convinced, is not solely to cure sick people. It is to touch the soul and to give us a new convincing insight and understanding of the spiritual reality which surrounds us".
In this 14 minute documentary, Dr. Keith Parsons provides a narrative of their unique healing partnership.
A SHORT HANDBOOK TO RETRIEVALS Gordon Phinn is a practicing psychic and spiritual counselor, offering many services from his home in Oakville, Ontario, near Toronto, Canada. He has spent many years exploring consciousness through out-of-body travel and the reams of occult and esoteric teachings that have come down to us from earlier civilizations. He has written a series of books on the afterlife, reincarnation, and the Ascended Masters.
Gordon has also had many years of experience helping lost and confused spirits to let go of their ignorance, doubts, and fears, and allow themselves to be guided to the light of whatever astral plane suits their cultural and religious assumptions and beliefs. He has now compiled a selection of his own experiences as well as those of other practitioners who have committed their methods to print. The modalities of lucid dreaming, shamanistic trance, projection both during the sleep and awake states, and passive reception of wandering spirits to rescue circles have all been included.

WOMAN DISCOVERS A WORLD OF NATURE IN HER OWN BACKYARD
A lovely reminder that there is a lot of satisfaction to be had from observing the wonders of nature in our immediate environment.
IS THE WORLD GOING TO SURVIVE? “Your world will continue to exist because there is no
individual or combinations of individuals who have the power to destroy
the whole of it. There is a limitation placed upon the harm that can be
done and the means that you can use, or can be invented or discovered,
to wreak damage on such a vast scale that the world would cease to be
tenable. Have no fear, the will of the Great Spirit must always prevail.
Be positive, optimistic and constructive in your outlook, and play your
part. Banish fear, worry, apprehension, anything that stops the rich
power of the spirit from filling you and encouraging you to do the best
you can. That is all we ask of you". Light from Silver Birch 175- 6
GRATEFULNESS, A GOOD DAY
This video, featuring Brother David, a highly-respected Benedictine monk, author and spiritual leader, is a BLESSING to all those with "eyes to see and ears to hear." Look, listen and be inspired by this powerful message on grateful living.
HOLIDAY SUPPORT OFFER Many of you know our good friends trance mediums Syann and Paul Hamden who work with Spirit and the extraterrestrial Zeta race. They also run a professional counselling practice called Mindscape NQ which offers support in the spiritual dimensions of a person's life as well as the emotional and mental. Sadly, at the moment, their professional insurance limits their services to Australian residents.
To assist people facing the increased challenges in the current times they are offering up to three gifted counselling sessions per person, scheduled once a week and conducted via Zoom video call. These sessions will be available on a first-come, first-served basis. To book an appointment with Syann or Paul, please e-mail them at mindscapeNQET@gmail.com. Read more about Mindscape NQ here
FEEDBACK (3 only)
1) "Hi Victor, the saying by Silver Birch was relevant for me to read today. I appreciated the work you and Wendy bring to the community." Suzanne
2) "Thank you very much Victor and Wendy for all your dedication and hard work." Phillis
3)
"Britain's long-running soap Coronation Street, started in 1960, tonight featured the transited partner of a gay man visiting him and preventing him from commiting suicide in his grief. The partner, severely disabled when alive on Earth, was now able to walk and even dance. His mother at the same time had a dream about her transited son, and knew just where to go to rescue his partner before he died. This shows how real-life stories about this sort of thing are getting through to mainstream soaps, etc." Tony
HIGHLY INSPIRATIONAL MUSIC: BRILLIANT, HIGHLY INSPIRATIONAL MUSIC: This fabulous version of Somewhere Over the Rainbow by Israel Kamakawiwo' Ole is one of the most popular songs he ever recorded. It merges with WHAT A WONDERFUL WORLD made famous by Louis Armstrong, voted the greatest jazz musician who ever lived.
So, relax, put the full screen on to fully enjoy the beautiful memorable scenery, and sing along or let your memory take you back .... Enjoy!!!!!!!!!
