Hi, I'm Dawn Lynn
As a child, I saw Spirit. My family embraced the Spiritualist faith, so this was normal. To my classmates, it wasn’t. I didn’t want to stand out or be different. So, I ignored my intuition. I didn’t listen.
Intuition doesn’t go away. It speaks quietly. Until it doesn’t.

The universe stopped whispering just after my 21st birthday. That’s when the universe gave me a wake up call. I was hit by three tractor trailers and crushed by a load of metal pipes. With a significant head injury, I had many obstacles to overcome.
Uncertain of my future, I was depressed. I felt alone. I hurt everyday. I didn’t know if I would ever get better. I was ready to give up.
Then, EVERYTHING ChangedI decided enough was enough. I would not feel sorry for myself. I should have died. I didn’t.
I LIVED!I believed there had to be a reason.
I was determined to find it. |
That’s When I Learned to Listen
When I listened, I heard my inner voice. I saw the blessings in my life. And a strange thing happened, I noticed the more I listened and the more grateful I was, more blessings came into my life.
The depression dissipated. I laughed again. I had hope. I completed college. I have loving husband. A beautiful daughter. A successful business. We travel and enjoy life. In those dark days, these accomplishments were unfathomable.

How did I do it? How Can You?
Embrace these simple philosophies.

1. Be PresentEnjoy every moment. Pay attention to your environment. Take time to linger in nature to notice the sights and sounds around you. Enjoy coffee and chocolate. Hug your loved ones. Snuggle your pets. Talk to your best friend. Put down the phone. Turn off the TV. |
2. You are Only Responsible for YOUEveryday strive to be kind. Stop judging others. Recognize that you can never walk in another’s shoes so you can never understand his or her decisions or motivations. It’s not your place to “fix” another’s problems. More importantly, stop allowing others to judge you. If you are unable to fully understand another, how could another possibly understand you? And, once you stop trying to “fix” others you’ll find you have energy to focus on changing yourself. |

3. Protect Your Energy
People will take as much as you are willing to give. Don’t let others drain you. Set boundaries. If someone brings you down, tell him or her. If he or she doesn’t change, you should. |
4. Let Go, Let God.Have faith. Let preconceived notions go. You won’t get what you want, you’ll receive what you need. If you are trying to force an outcome, it might not be what is meant to be and you may be keeping yourself from true greatness. |

These tasks are simple…
Commitment to them is not.
