Gratitude
After a bad accident that left the right side of my face completely shattered (along with a dislocated collarbone) I suddenly found myself incredibly grateful to be alive.
This is where my journey with gratitude took a sharp turn in my life. During my healing, my day began before my feet even hit the floor. As my eyes fluttered open, I remember being so thankful for the fact that I could see out of both of them. (This was not a given for me at the time). I literally and figuratively was being given the gift of seeing another day EVERY SINGLE MORNING. Over the past 17 years I have nurtured my relationship with gratitude and embody it daily through practices and moments that I would love to share with you.
Gratitude has become a cornerstone in my life, and I firmly believe expressing it daily has raised my vibration and frequency more than any other single thing I have done.
I would love to support you on your own journey with grace. Simply fill out the boxes to the right and in the message type GRATITUDE. I will email you a FREE printable document of ways to incorporate or enhance any gratitude practices you may already have. 17 years of tips, prayers, and affirmations boiled down to 1 simple document. I have no doubt you will enjoy it.
Yours in grace,
Shelley

WHAT MAKES ME…… WELL ME
I grew up in a tiny village in Pennsylvania that to this day still does not have a stop light
The closest “big town” to us was Punxsutawney (population 5747) yep, home of the famous weather forecasting groundhog, Punxsy Phil!
I moved to Ohio in 1997
So this morning I saw a fella dragging a clam on a leash behind him,,,,,I thought it must be hard to walk with a pulled mussel!! I LOVE PUNS!!!
My first tattoo (the moon card from a witches tarot deck) was at a party w/10 other people. Big Tony didn’t bat an eye when I had him stop about 10 seconds in so I could go puke in the bathroom!
I was 49 when Michelle and I got married under the stars in an intimate ceremony in 2018 (#latebloomer)
I am going to write a book about Fairies and my nieces and nephews are going to be the main characters (shhhhhhh, they don’t know this yet)
Pugs are my jam
Every time I go to a store that sells Betta Fish; I stop to give them all Reiki. EVERY. SINGLE. TIME. I hate that they are stuck in those tiny bowls. FYI, they do not like it one bit either.
I eat left-handed, but throw right-handed; use a hammer and scissors with my left hand, yet kick a ball with my right foot. Actually i can switch back and forth pretty easily.
I LOVE LOVE LOVE to giggle.
Michelle and I have lovingly updated and restored our Aframe cabin in the woods ourselves (sans some electrical work). It is amazing when you get to clear away old energy and instill yours into the bones of your home. It quite literally is filled with magic and I hope to someday (soon) host intimate retreats there.

(This as an Animal Communication Session with a kitty living in France):
“Thank you for following up Shelley, I’ve been meaning to send you a message because we have seen SUCH improvements! Firstly, right after our first session and your reiki treatment he started venturing out again. We smudged the house and his body like you guided me. He is so much happier, more snuggly and accepting love again. To be honest, my husband was not a believer in it at all beforehand, but then he saw the difference it’s made and he has changed his mind! I’m so grateful for your guidance, its so nice to see our kitty happy again!
~Hold Ceremony Owner, Candace
“After Shelley’s visit I noticed some profound shifts of the energy in my home, it was like the air had become less thick. I think that this feeling will be personal, unique, and special for everyone that Shelley encounters. I just felt a peace and calm from Cheech and Ireland (my Frenchie’s) as if they were holding on to all this information they so badly wanted to share, but needed that channel to reach me fully. Shelley was that channel. I will forever be grateful to her for teaching me their love languages, purposes and gifts. Thank you Shelley for changing the flow of our home, opening that space in my soul that makes me more aware, and for giving Cheech and Ireland a voice. We are forever grateful for your gifts” Animal Communication Session
