Developing a relationship with your baby’s guides and protectors

I’ll never forget the first time I met one of my spirit guides.

I was in my first apartment, I had just moved into, with my now husband, and I was in the early phases of exploring my spiritual gifts, I call it the ‘honeymoon’ phase – there is so much that’s new and exciting,and it all just feels so sweet.

I have felt loving and supportive presences around me all my life, and I had many profound experiences with what I now know to be my spirit guides many times in my life. Like the time they sent one of my guides in to be with me physically during a tough day at a court hearing, or the time they saved my life after my car broke down in a really dangerous spot on the highway. But I had never actually met one of my spirit guides and communicated back and forth with them directly.

So I started a meditation by someone I loved to learn from at the time, Sonia Choquette. The meditation was to connect with and meet your spirit guide. Guided meditation supported me so much in the early days, it’s why I’m now so passionate about offering guided meditations so people can explore their spirit babies that way, and so many people are able to achieve connections they had trouble with on their own. I don’t believe guided meditation is the only way to connect to our spirit babies and guides, but they can be SO helpful at the right moment.

Anyways, back to the spirit guide meditation.

In this meditation, we were guided to drop into something called the temple of our heart. We entered through a sacred door, walked down a passageway, and at the other end of the passageway was another door. When we opened this door, we would be entering our heart temple, and there we would meet our primary spirit guide. As I descended into my heart temple, I became overwhelmed with this feeling of anticipation, and ultimately of love. I felt my spirit guide’s love for me emanating from my heart temple even before I had reached it.

As I passed through the doorway into my heart temple, I saw this beautiful space that looked like a library – cozy fireplaces, stained glass windows, and big cushy chairs. Waiting for me in one of those chairs was a man: medium height, slim, dark hair, the kindest almond-shaped eyes I had ever seen, and a big, beautiful, welcoming smile.

All at once, I knew him. I remembered him. Even though my logical mind would try to convince me that I had never seen this man before in my life, I had. My spirit remembered this guide from before I was born. He had helped me come into this life as Emily. He guided me through conception, pregnancy, birth, childhood, and where I was then as a young adult. He helped me remember what I was here to do at a very difficult time in my life, where I was very much at a crossroads.

I won’t go into what we talked about in those cushy chairs by the fireplace that day, but what I am here to talk to you about is how YOU as a parent can develop a deeply loving and supportive relationship with your child’s spirit guides and protectors, whose main role is to support your child and their spirit as they journey through this wild and beautiful experience on Earth.

No soul is born without support.
