Shelley Kaehr, Beyond Reality, Evidence of Parallel Universes. What if?


“Yes, I am white now,' said Gandalf. 'Indeed I am Saruman, one might almost say, Saruman as he should have been.” - J.R.R. Tolkien, The Two Towers, Goodreads.

Wendy's Coffeehouse Interview with Shelly Kaehr, Do we exist in Parallel Universes? 

Beyond Reality, Evidence of Parallel Universes. Preview the book on Amazon.

When I read Shelley Kaehr's book, I had no idea about her Past Life specialty. Doing the research prior to setting up an interview, I discovered she had an extensive background and - obviously - the timing was no coincidence. Talking with her, it is clear, we share some similar interests. I also have several upcoming interviews touching on the theme of past lives.

Shelley Kaehr, The Past Life Lady. Site. This introduction is from an event in Granbury, Texas.



One of the stories we covered - In a dream, Shelley identified a location she felt she had been before and, in sharing the dream information with a friend, was surprised to learn the friend had the very same dream experience and remembered the two of them being together in the dream.

She has given me that story to share in an upcoming guest blog.

An incredible story we don't cover is in Chapter 13. Shelley was giving a talk and relating the story of a friend who died in a hiking accident.

One of the attendees happened to have been with that friend at the time of the accident.

Shelley described seeing an apparition of the deceased friend. The attendee told her the  clothes she described the apparition wearing were accurate, something she had never known.

I added a personal story. To this day, my Mom still can't figure out how she avoided an accident (in the past year) that could have been tragic.

One minute she was heading into an unavoidable collision, frantically thinking which of the worst options would be the best course - and the next minute - she was beyond it.

No collision, no close call, no accident. 

I have yet to get her to draw the diagram of the situation and describe the experience in writing, as it happened. She is still trying to wrap her brain around it and - it might be - writing it down clarifies an impossible - as possible. A reality that could have happened but didn't (Thankfully.) and still boggles the mind.

I have past life memories and dreams that suggest parallel life encounters and other experiences that challenge what is considered 'normal' reality. For that matter, each and every day - my 'normal' is 'beyond reality'. By now, it's clear there are others who experience this stuff too.

We explore and discover. Shelley and I will talk more.


Thank you for listening!

Author, Medium, Intuitive, Artist, Reiki Master and Blogger, Shirl Knobloch's book
caught my eye. Or maybe I should say it was the face on the front of her book that got my attention, Yes, I knit blankets for Squirrels/Amazon.

Shirl lives in a haunted house in Gettysburg and shares some of that local flavor, along with photos and art on her blog.




Who is the squirrel on the front of the book? Shirl mentions several names but I still have no idea whom to give top billing on this. Definitely, a cool character.

When it comes to living in a haunted space, Shirl and I have a similar view that ghosts are not always a negative influence nor as easily evicted as some might imply.

The presence (overlapping dimensions) can be so subtle that some people are unaware until an animal or guest who is sensitive detects it.

If the disruption is minor, it can be easier to accept the presence, allow a truce and enjoy the occasional interaction. It might even help one expand his own awareness - as has happened for me in several instances.

The most unnerving was in a house where the previous occupant had committed suicide. Didn't find out about that until after the poltergeist activity began.

Do make an exception if and when the interaction is negative and or menacing. Something else going on and relocating is a better option. Oh, remember, not everyone will believe your story. Never mind and consider your safety/sanity as the priority.

Ghosts are notoriously rotten at performing for cameras and crowds. Nothing in it for them after all. Encounters are most likely when the lights are low and the crowds have infused their energy and then departed. (Weston ghosts are good at that. Terry McKenzie has a VERY haunted house.)

Review my interview with Keith Linder (Demons in Seattle/Recap: The Travel Channel) about his ongoing poltergeist experience. And an update/YouTube.

Booked for January, 2018 - Paul Davids is back. This time he's sharing some of the wild stuff he experienced as a guinea pig in a CIA mind-control experiment.

John Selby and Paul Jeffrey Davids, the authors of Blowing America’s Mind: A True Story of Princeton, CIA Mind Control, LSD and Zen, were among Princeton University students in the late 1960’s who got tangled up in these secret experiments at the nearby New Jersey Neuro‐Psychiatric Institute’s Bureau of Research.

To paraphrase the language on their site, if it took the authors '50 years to de-condition their own minds and remember what was done to them at the Institute and Princeton in 1967, it might indicate the subversive power of memory-blocking research.' - Website
