The Elizabeth Severino Newsletter A Voice for All Beings
July-August-September 2006

Dear Elizabeth,

The past few months have been filled with sacred, delightful, and educational events. June 3, I officiated at the wedding service of my younger brother and his new wife, Pam (see related story). An extraordinary aura of love embraced all present! In mid-June, I did a mini-workshop and animal communication readings at Wild Birds Unlimited in Turnersville, NJ. So many people appeared wanting readings that we went well into the evening, long after the store had officially closed! Later in June and early July, I travelled to Arizona for a weekend spiritual healing workshop with Ron Roth. Ron is a great spiritual healer (see Featured Story). I was further blessed that weekend by being the guest of a dear friend, Fitzie ... we definitely talked into the wee hours while also very much enjoying a litter of pups whose eyes were just starting to open! Thank you, Fitzie! Also in July, I travelled to Toronto to take the intense Intermediate and Advanced Training Class for the energy frequency balancing device I use. I am now a Quantum Biofeedback Specialist, the highest practitioner's rating for use of the device in the U.S. and Canada! Delightfully, I was also able to visit with my niece, Jeneve, and her boyfriend, Remi.

I anticipate a busy September filled with appearances and charity events within the NJ area and an exciting October as I prepare for a much-anticipated workshop I'll be facilitating at the 2006 Annual Conference of the American Holistic Veterinary Medical Assocation in Louisville. I've been invited to address "Increasing Practical Intuition in Busy Practice Environments." My goal for the 3-hour workshop is to open attendees as much as possible and to teach them how to keep themselves open after they leave.

Upcoming Events:
Tuesday, September 5th, 2006: "VIP Interview with Dr. Elizabeth Severino" on the Jonathan Casey Show, WSNJ, 9:05 am. The show broadcast is available internationally via Internet.

  • A Vermont Wedding!

    On June 3, 2006, Dr. Liz (center) officiated the wedding ceremony of her brother John (right) and his new wife, Pam (left). In the picture above, the couple exchange rings. The very unique service unfolded with many exquisitely energetically choregraphed events and was filled with extraordinary love.

    "It was perfect," John and Pam both happily exclaimed afterwards.

    One of the attendees, Bob, a healer in the Valley and a Barbara Brennan Hands of Light Graduate, said he saw a large aura of love create itself and embrace Dr. Liz, then John and Pam and expand to enfold the entire gathering. Dr. Liz of course feels that this is what she brings to such a service, that this is the difference possible when one is an Ordained Spiritual Healer and is the officiant (see related Ron Roth feature story). "I love flowing Sacred Energy into everything, particularly writing and officiating wedding services," Dr. Liz explained. "One thing I particularly love to do is make sure that the energy of the archetype of marriage comes through on the light side, with the couple's professions to each other reflecting conscious choice and awareness of their commitments to each other.

    "Of course, this wedding service was a particular joy for me to write and to officiate, since my brother and I have always been close and I've been a part of his love-filled relationship with Pam as it has unfolded. They're a beautiful couple. I felt inspired from the very beginning for them."


    The wedding vows were particularly beautiful and "just came through when I connected with the Divine and with the couple's incredible energy," Dr. Liz said. John and Pam glowed as they exchanged vows. Other features of the service included the exchange of red and white roses and an acknowledgment of each other's two children, bringing the family now to six, through an exchange of sunflowers, very meaningful to all involved.

    The wedding site was The Farm on Mad River, 42 acres of magnificent Vermont beauty owned and operated by Bryant Fitzsimmons and Billy Johnson. In Waitsfield, VT, The Farm is available for rental for events. The venue is exquisitely back-dropped by the rush of the Mad River itself and the ever-so- green Green Mountains. Meadows, trees, and waterfalls from every vantage point, offer spectacular views. The hosts are delightful, helpful, and very conscious.

    Dr. Liz's brother John owns Sunflower Natural Foods in Waterbury Junction, Vermont. Stop by and say, "Dr. Liz sent me!" if you're ever in that area! Pam, Dr. Liz's new sister-in-law, works at The Store in Waitsfield, Vermont. The Store is a delightful presentation of many items for the home and heart. Again, stop by and say, "Dr. Liz sent me!"


    Talk with the Animals ...

    Introducing Madison, shown in the picture with Dr. Liz!

    "Madison comes to me to help her body address certain subtle blockages creating difficulties in her mobility, especially in her hindquarters," Dr. Liz explained to us as along with her care-humans, Jack and Carol, Madison enjoyed an in-person, Natural Path Energy Therapy session. NPET is a modality originated by Dr. Liz. NPET combines spiritual healing, intuitive sensing and reading including animal communication of course, and an extremely comprehensive range of energy therapy and balancing services in one session.

    "Such sessions are especially wonderful for me because I get to do everything I love to do. I particularly love being able to physically see and play with Madison a little first. Then of course we talk! I continue to talk with her throughout her energy therapy session to determine exactly how she's feeling, ask questions, listen to her responses, and benefit from her clarifications about any issues that come up. As always, I get to be sensitive and reactive to exactly how she's responding in the moment. This makes for a very powerful and effective session."

    Madison did very well. Her humans felt that Madison evidenced that she was completely relaxed by almost falling asleep at one point during the session!

    When not sleeping, Madison was quite open and talkative. She shared that her one sibling, Bailey, was very easy going; and that her other sibling, Shannon, was stand-offish. Madison's humans felt this was right on the mark relative to Bailey and Shannon!

    One point of note, Madison kept calling her sister, Doodle, her "brother." Through questioning, Dr. Liz discovered that a male Pointer, Shane, formerly in the family and who had dropped his body, was using Doodle's body to come back to visit and say, "Hi!"

    Madison was very clear about when Shane was back and told Dr. Liz exactly what behaviors Doodle's body did, when Shane was "visiting."

    When Dr. Liz shared Madison's explanations of Shane's behaviors in Doodle's body with her persons, they immediately confirmed that these were indeed Shane's behaviors! They also knew immediately what Madison was talking about! Madison's persons excitedly cried out, almost in unison, "I knew it!" They were SO happy when they received confirmation that it was indeed their beloved Shane who was contacting them to say, "Hi!"

    Madison now says she's moving much more comfortably and more easily. A very sweet blend of spiritual healing, energy therapy, and animal communication created a very good time for all concerned!

    If you are interested in arranging an NPET combination spiritual healing, animal communication and energy balancing therapy session, contact Dr. Liz! First sessions take either 90 minutes or 120 minutes and cost either $225.00 or $300.00 Subsequent sessions are usually one hour and cost $150.00, but what's indicated depends on the situation. Sessions can be done in person or long distance.


    What does an off-duty animal communicator do ...
    LizandElvis

    Well, what DOES an off-duty animal communicator do? A few months ago, this off-duty animal communicator donned a Red Hat and danced with Elvis!

    Dr. Liz joined the Red Hat Society to bring some fun and relaxation into her life ... and if you'll pardon the expression, to "kick up her heels" a little bit! In the photo, she is dancing and singing in front of the stage of performing Elivs Presley Tribute Artist, Scott Ringersen. Scott, who lives in Florida, looks like, moves like and sings like The King. After the performance, Dr. Liz discovered that he also when off stage has the same profoundly simple modesty and extreme politeness that so marked The King's personality.

    Scott Ringersen has been thrilling audiences with his electrifying tribute show "The Elvis Experience" for 10 years. He has an outstanding vocal range, energy and charisma, and seems to have amassed an extensive and extremely loyal following. He is definitely a showman. He has great stage presence (even though he had technical difficulties with his audio equipment the night we enjoyed him) and dons authentic costumes. His show captures the look, sound, moves, style and excitement of perhaps the most brilliantly eclectic artist of our time.

    Scott has a deep, assured grasp of all the classic pop, blues, rock and roll, country and gospel from the 50's through the Elvis' concert years. He sings both the common and rare works of Elvis, and is able to perform songs that many other tribute artists cannot do, such as, American Trilogy, Impossible Dream and Hurt. For the past 3 years in a row, Scott has been awarded the prestigious "Best Florida Entertainer" awarded by Florida Monthly Magazine.

    It was a tradition of course that The King give out scarves at his events and many tribute artists (a.k.a. "impersonators") continue this tradition ... Dr. Liz received one from 'The King' himself! He was actually singing and moving through the crowd heading for another person, when he turned and gave the scarf in his hand to Dr. Liz. Dr. Liz feels the fact that she was down on her knees begging may have influenced him but only just a little. She is sure he would have given her a scarf anyway!

    Many thanks to Maria and the Red Hatters who organized this delightful event where a VERY good time was had by all!

    Be happy on the journey, wherever it takes you, from Dr. Liz!


    A Love Story about a Budgie and his Human ...
    pipsqueak cover

    Are you ready to be totally delighted? Read on ...

    In the fall of 2004, Cheri McAleese started emailing me about her parakeet, Pipsqueak. She wasn't contacting me in my capacity as an animal communicator to help her understand him, she said. She was contacting me because she had an extraordinary bird who could speak audible, comprehensible words and sentences in context in English. She thought I might enjoy meeting him and witnessing his amazing intelligence. She was, she said in her emails, immensely proud of him.

    Seated at her kitchen table, I met and spoke with Pipsqueak. He proved to be an elegant, eloquent, capable and loving bird with a large telepathic vocabulary and a speaking vocabulary of approximately 800 or so words. He proved that he can put English words together on his own in sentences he creates appropriately in context in English.

    Pipsqueak! has many anecdotes from his life. I listened delightedly with rapt attention as one after another story unfolded.

    I served a Fortune 500 company as a Vice President at one point in my past, so one episode, I particularly loved. It involved a day when Cheri took Pipsqueak! to work. An employee came into Cheri's office and spoke on and on in a round-about manner for about 20 minutes. Pipsqueak! lost his patience and blurted out, "Get to the point!". Fortunately for her given her job at that time, Cheri says, the employee laughed!

    I found the entire day so engaging that I suggested that Cheri and Pipsqueak write a book about their life together. Cheri thought about it and then said, "Others have said this, too."

    "Do it!"
    I encouraged her.

    She and Pipsqueak did it! The book, My Name is Pipsqueak! What's Your Name?" (two full sentences Pipsqueak! says) is now available, as is a limited edition CD of Pipsqueak! speaking!

    Chapters in the book include how they met, the other beings in their lives including Murph the Senegal Parrot and Ditto another (heavens!) budgie, and how Pipsqueak! went from mimicry to full learning and usage of English words and phrases. Also included are pointers from both Pipsqueak! and Cheri on choosing (or being chosen by), living with and helping to encourage speaking with Budgies.

    The book is truly enchanting. It demonstrates the breadth and depth of communication possible when two souls lovingly align. Pipsqueak's intelligence will amaze you, his personality will charm you, and his sense of humor will delight you! The book is really a love story! Read and enjoy this wonderful book and even consider getting more as gifts.

    A Great Spiritual Healer offers Humor, Knowledge, and an Exceptional Connection allowing the Flow of Sacred Healing Energy ...
    Ron_and_Liz

    Pictured is Ron Roth, a modern-day mystic, author, and extremely impactful spiritual healer, as he delightedly recognizes Dr. Liz and offers offers her darshan (spiritual blessing) in Scottsdale, AZ (U.S.A.) a few years ago.

    Ron Roth is the author of many dozens of books, audiotapes, videotapes, and more recently, DVD's and an E- Newsletter on Spiritual Healing and Prayer. He is distinguished in that he holds strong belief in the Holy Spirit and the power of prayer while honoring all religions. He believes in the importance of a daily spiritual practice and of being led through your own journey and path, whatever that may be. With humor and with an open recounting of his many life's adventures, he shows what awareness of self and service to the Divine can be. He also models openly his many struggles along the path of surrendering the ego into merger with God.

    I first met Ron in May of 1996 at a Caroline Myss event in Bala Cynwyd, PA. Caroline had invited the audience to stay after her day-long presentation for a "healing" session with someone she described as "a true healer archetype, a recovering Catholic, in fact a former Roman Catholic Priest." About 20 of us stayed. As the room emptied, a large man who appeared to be in his late 50's or early 60's came to join our group.

    "Hello, I'm Ron Roth," he said in a tenor vocal range that emanated compassion. "Stand in one row in a half circle here, I'm going to offer the healing of the boundless energy of the Holy Spirit to each one of you. It won't matter whether I touch you or not, it won't matter what your belief system is, you're here and you'll receive it either way."

    He proceeded to either wave his hand above the heads of or actually lightly touch the persons present. I felt his energy strongly and as he waved his hand above my head and touched my right ear. I felt a powerful in-filling of Grace.

    "Who is this man?" I wondered. "And what technique is he using, to accomplish this?"

    By then I had studied and become certified in a wide variety of healing modalities including Reiki, Prana, Qi Gong healing, Magnified Healing, Quantum Healing, Energy Breathwork, Transformational Breathwork, and many others. But this was something new. What was this new technique he was using, I wanted to know?

    Ron's next words suggested he had read my mind.

    "Some of you may be wondering what technique I'm using. It's not WHAT I know, it's WHO I know. I have a very strong prayer practice and have had a very strong connection to the Holy Spirit since I was a child. I repeat, it's not WHAT I know, it's WHO I know. I don't have a technique, I don't know what I'm going to do or where I'm going to put my hands, I don't even know what I'm going to say, it all comes to me in the moment, from the Holy Spirit. And you can do it, too, if you're willing to pay the price. I meditate and pray for a minimum of two hours a day and I've done this almost my entire life."

    A short time after this event, I brought a group of my students to a day-long event attended by about 60 people. At this event, I saw with my own eyes, a healing that happened about 10 feet in front of me. Ron and his amazing colleague and life partner, Paul Funfsinn, also a very powerful healer, together with the Holy Spirit, did a "healing" on a woman whose one leg was 4" shorter than the other. It took them about 20 minutes, after which time, the two legs were the same length! She walked out of the room in her stocking feet, holding her shoes, one still with a 4" lift in it! She could no longer walk with the shoes she had worn in!

    I was hooked, something amazing and wonderful was happening! I wanted more modeling of it!

    I next attended what was then called a 4-Day Intensive. At this Intensive, many healings were performed in a way that I later was told was Pentecostal-like. I had never seen anything quite like it and I was totally amazed, feeling VERY drawn to this! Ron said over and over, "Christ who is my Master, my Teacher, my Model, not that he's the only model, He's just the one I know and love best, says 'This and even greater things that this, shall ye do.'"

    Ron is very powerful and very convincing. When he said that, I believed him. I "caught" the energy of the connection to the Holy Spirit right then and there, in the workshop room, and "copied" what I saw Ron doing energetically. I found myself standing up. Someone I didn't know spontaneously came to me and asked me to touch her. She told me what her concerns were. I could see some of her issues physically. I could sense the others. I touched this person, calling in the Holy Spirit. I felt VERY "in-filled", and she went "down" (safely) in the Spirit onto the floor and was "out" for 45 minutes. When she woke up, she said she felt completely healed; and she looked healed! I didn't know the lady and she didn't know me, so in that moment, I "knew" this type of healing, the Holy Spirit flowing through someone, was "for real." I also knew that the Holy Spirit was willing to use me to flow Divine Power and Grace!

    As time unfolded, I attended a very large percentage of Ron's events. I personally have witnessed and participated in many hundreds of healings. I have experienced the in-filling of the Holy Spirit flowing through Ron, Paul, and other Spiritual Healers including myself in such a way that persons in the room are healed physically, emotionally, and mentally and of course, spiritually. I found I absolutely LOVE "getting myself out of the way" and inviting the Holy Spirit in to flow healings to others.

    I felt I had already been ordained by God, but I also felt to receive the blessing of Ordination through Ron, my Teacher, who introduced me to this work. I entered his 4-year Spiritual Ordination Program and received my Ordination through him in 2002. My Ordination was an extremely beautiful and high-energy Sacred event, with several hundred present in-form and many more hundreds (including my beloved animal friends of course!!!) present out-of-form. I feel this event was gifted to me by the Holy Spirit, Ron, his close colleague and Celebrating Life co-founder Paul Funfsinn, the amazing CL staff and all those present. It is an event I will remember forever.

    Ron believes life is meant to be an exhilarating experience and from all counts, he has been living this! His vision is to put strong wings on weary hearts. His method is to demonstrate universal principles that allow people to transcend their programmed limitations and to connect with a conscious awareness of oneness with the Divine and all creation. His ultimate intent is to establish a consciousness of a more peaceful world. For me, Ron and Paul have been powerful teachers who have empowered me to realize a God of Love and to flow my innate healing gifts. Ron has modeled the mix of high spirtual connection and power with the struggle of ego and release of ego to Divine merger, and Paul has modeled a life of pure love, service, and devotion.

    Isaac Bookstore, run by Paul, offers one of the best available collections of products for those on a spiritual path. A subset of the products can be ordered from their web-site. I tend to feel my favorite of Ron's works is whatever one I'm listening to or watching at the time. That said, I offer that the audio set, "The Holy Spirit, the Boundless Energy of God" and the audio set, "The Unlimited Power of a Congruent Life Style" are my two favorites. I've listened to them multiple times. I also love, "Meditations for Developing a God Consciousness."

    I found out about Neal Douglas Klotz' "Original Prayer", one of the best renditions and explanations of the Aramaic of the Lord's Prayer, from the bookstore. The message of this Prayer as delivered by Klotz transcends specific religious belief and brings us into mysticism just by listening to it. Other excellent works are: "Forgiveness: The Art of Restoring Inner Peace"; "Prayer and Spirit as Energy Medicine"; "The Dark Night of the Soul"; "The Healing Path of Prayer"; "Prayer and the Five Stages of Healing"; and "Spiritual Healing: Merging Mysticism and Meditation with Medicine". These last are all through Ron.

    Ron feels there is a secret that has been hidden from people for thousands of years. It is that everyone has the potential to tap into the Stream of Light energy. He has learned how to do that, and he models for others, how to make that connection so that their lives are transformed from fear, worry and sickness to peace, love, abundance, wisdom, health and power.

    I have found through Ron's work and from Ron's events, that I love flowing the Holy Spirit for healing. I look forward to a time when other venues present for me to be of service in this way.

    An aspect of Ron's work that is particularly noteworthy is the amazing people who are drawn to his events. I have met some very special people whom I hold as very dear friends, at his Healing programs. A Special "Hello" to all my Celebrating Life Friends!

    Very recently, Ron experienced a stroke and as of this writing is hospitalized. He deeply appreciates prayers and is quite responsive to them. He also loves to receive cards and letters. If you feel to render a prayer for him unto the God of your Understanding, please join me and do so. If you feel to send a card, please send it to:
