Time plods on without a care, and you get caught in it, for better or worse, but time does not matter, for it has no heart, no mind, no sense of self, it simply is. But you, you have a heart, a mind, and a sense of self that exists outside of time, is always present, and is always seeking something beyond the mundane world of time. While you are busy seeking, your spirit is seeking you. You don’t have to go anywhere special, buy anything special, hook into anything special, or eat anything special. You don’t even have to leave your home. You just have to sit quietly with yourself, as we have been teaching, and before you know it you will experience no-time, nothing but the present moment. And in that moment, you will find what you have been seeking.

All our love,
The Soul Sisters, Jan & Jeanne

In times of trouble in the world, keep your heart center alive and well. Practice centering on your heart center as we have been teaching over the past few days. The more you do this the more familiar and automatic it will become, and you will find that it’s easier to do at a moment’s notice. Sitting calmly and quietly, with attention focused on your heart center can become an anchor for you in any storm. Try it right now, and notice how instantly something changes within your very physiology, how something within you feels different, and how automatically you tune down your body so that nothing seems to matter as much as it did a moment ago. This is a good use of your heart center.

All our love,
The Soul Sisters, Jan & Jeanne

A quiet heart is the best medicine for most of what ails you, and the world around you, as well. A quiet heart is a link to the Divine, a connector to the best medicine in the world, and that medicine is love. Love is what flows to you and through you when you sit quietly and turn your attention to your heart center, a wonderful receptive area within the human body. The heart center in every being speaks a different language that you only have to hear once for it to become known to you. Acquiesce to its guidance more often by simply sitting with your quiet mind focused on your heart center, and let the quiet heart within you teach you its wisdom.

All our love,
The Soul Sisters, Jan & Jeanne

Chuck’s Place: Opening To The Door Of More

Opening the door to more…
-Artwork © 2026 Jan Ketchel

When Jeanne, my first wife, left her human form, she came to me in a song and asked me to pray for her. What that meant was for me to keep the dream of us, as we had been in this life, fresh and alive in my consciousness, as a touchstone for her, as she opened to her unfolding, ethereal Odyssey in infinity, solely in spirit form.

She advanced rapidly as she learned of her vaster journey through infinity, of which our dream had been but a moment. She then came to me again, and this time asked me to not stay attached to old ideas of us, as our thoughts of others are suggestions that weigh upon their consciousnesses, binding them to old ideas of themselves, whether in human or spirit form.

Withdrawing my attachment to old ideas of us freed her energy, as well as my own, to experience a far greater connection to who she more fully was, and is continually becoming, beyond the prior specialness of us.

Opening to this new relationship also allowed me to be pointed in directions of discovery that have broadened my knowing of self and the collective dream of our time. Most everything that Jan and I put out on this website reflects Jeanne’s lessons for our world, as they have come to us, in spirit, in this time of great change.

The occasion of physical death is a unique opportunity to open the door to more, as we leave the physical body behind and fully embody a far more subtle energy body.

Although we retain our pure love for all whom we leave behind at death, we also release each other from old roles and expectations. This allows us full freedom to employ our attention in the adventure and exploration of expanded reality.

The issue of discovering and settling into an expanded identity is paramount to continued growth beyond human form. We have that same opportunity of expansion while in human form, if we are willing to stalk it.

Stalking is a shamanic practice, where, like in acting, one fully embodies a role or identity to the point of almost forgetting the familiar habitual self of everyday life.

The wisdom for manifesting, as discovered by prominent New Thought teachers, is to fully live as if that which one desires is indeed already fully present in one’s life. This involves the faith that it is so, as well as the joy and gratitude for it being so.

This stalking behavior is a powerful suggestion, from the conscious mind to the subconscious mind, that this is the reality to be manifested. The imagination becomes the architect of physical experience. We become what we believe ourselves to be.

The practice of stalking is a powerful suggestion to the subconscious mind that has the power to actualize anything.

The magic of the manifestation is in the hands of the subconscious mind, not in the acting quality of the actor. What matters most is the sincerity of the imagination, as it truly opens to the door to more.

The message I have most powerfully received, and live by, is that everything is indeed possible, if you can fully stalk it in your imagination.

Believing is seeing,
Chuck
