Why would you call the Superpower Saints?!. You want Divine help.2. You want to boost the work you do with Archangels or any other practice.3. You want to create a more fulfilling life.For many, the idea of working with the Saints is foreign. Saints have helped many throughout history. Calling Saints is simply another knowing that, when practiced with a little faith, will yield significant benefits. I learned about the power of Saints once I was already into the practice of calling Archangels. Combining the Saints and Archangels is where the Alchemy, fun, and magic happens. So get ready to rock your world as we make some new friends. You will be meeting and playing with the following. 1.) Saint Jude and Archangel Gabriel - Road Opener- Allow your Superpower Saints and Archangels to knock down any barriers or closed doors for you. Feel excited and renewed as stubborn blocks are cleared with the help of your Archangels, Saints, Tapping, and Breathwork. Expect to release fears of moving forward in life with grace and ease. 2. Saint Valentine and Archangel Haniel- Heart-Centered Creating.- Get ready to feel more self-confident as the Archangels and Saint of Love team up to infuse you with Divine Light Codes of Love. 3. Saint Lawrence and Archangel Jophiel- Bliss- These two super-beings take you on a journey to more bliss and help clear any triggers getting in the way. 4. Saint Martha and Archangel Michael - Boundaries- St. Marth is a super protective saint who helps you create energetic boundaries with the help of the Divine Archangel Michael. 5. Saint Lazarus and Archangel Metatron- Vitality- Get an energetic tune-up as the Archangels and Saints guide you in tapping and breathing your way to feeling refreshed.The Saints have a unique energy that works so Divinely with the Archangels, and with time, you will start to really feel and know your Saints. Another fun aspect is that you may combine the forces of any of the Superpower Saints with Any of the Amazing Archangels and create your own Dynamic Alchemy. This book is just a start to wet your whistle, so to speak and introduce you. You may take this knowing anywhere you please that is for the highest good of all involved.This book also brings in the power of Mother Earth. The knowing that our Mother Earth infuses us with Multiple Healing Frequencies when we connect barefoot with her is ancient. We are living in a time where rubber shoes and building materials block these healing frequencies unless we take conscious steps to connect with our Earth. Clinton Ober has spent decades studying the Earth's healing abilities, and his book Earthing is a great start to find more information. The Saints and Archangels suggested we include an Outdoor Practice with each section. Obviously, only practice outdoors when temperature and good conditions permit. During the times when you are not able to do that practice outdoors, go there in your imagination and visualize an outdoor paradise. As you set intentions to spend more time connected barefoot to the Earth, the opportunities will start to present themselves. Of course, do what feels best for you. We also combine the power of Ho'oponopono and Breath-Tap in this process for exponential results. One of the main benefits of Ho'oponopono is that there are so many variables in challenges that, as humans, we do not understand or see. Again your Archangels and Saints can be called and included in this process. Ho'oponopono has the miraculous ability to clean things Up over time. It becomes even more effective as we do our Ho'oponopono with our Breath-Tap. Get ready for an exciting journey of exploration and joy with your Superpower Saints, Archangels, and more.
