When Ghosts Speak - Mary Ann Winkowski [91]
Obviously she was very relieved to discover where all her bills had been going. As an accountant, she hated to miss payments or be late paying a bill. While she was trying to figure out how her mail had been hijacked, she mentioned the mystery of the mail to one of her tax clients who knew me. One thing led to another, and I received the call. Sure enough, when I went to her house there was a ghost living there as well. I released him into the Light. Since then, no more headaches and no more stress from missing mail!
Intestinal Problems
Lingering symptoms of discomfort, cramps, or vaguely queasy stomachs are common. Okay, I’ll admit that these can be serious problems, but there was one instance that really gave me the giggles. The guy who called me was a real “gym Casanova” —you might recognize the type if you go to a health club. A muscle-bound fellow with a healthy ego, he loved to strut around the gym and hit on whatever attractive woman caught his attention. This guy was such a stereotype. When I went to his apartment, I almost laughed out loud. He lived in a total bachelor pad, complete with a circular bed made up with satin sheets.
A woman ghost who hung around at the gym had been attracted to him and had followed him home. Every time lover boy would bring home one of his conquests from the gym, he was suddenly struck with a case of nerves. He’d feel as if someone was watching him make his moves. Suddenly his great pickup didn’t seem like such a good idea. Unfortunately for this Don Juan, his nerves manifested themselves as a terrible case of gas, followed by an incurable case of stomach upset. Word got around, and it became quite the joke at the gym. Although I did send the ghost into the Light, I’ll admit that for one teeny-tiny second, I actually thought I’d be doing the women at the gym a big favor if I just let her stay with him.
Trouble Sleeping
Frequent waking in the night, difficulty falling asleep, and insomnia can all be signs of an earthbound spirit in your home.
Fatigue, Even When You Should Feel Rested
If your muscles constantly ache or feel heavy, if you have trouble waking up even after a good night’s sleep, or if you feel you just aren’t functioning at your best, your doctor may suggest that you are suffering from a chronic condition such as a thyroid disorder, anemia, or fibromyalgia. You might also consider this: The more energy a ghost absorbs, the less you have.
Unexplained Anxiety
Worrying over small matters, stressing out when you misplace things, or constantly assuming the worst in a harmless situation can all be signs of an earthbound spirit’s influence.
Inappropriate Anger or Irritation
I have worked with plenty of couples on the brink of divorce and discovered that a ghost was the catalyst for their screaming fights—which trigger, at least for the ghost, a satisfying amount of emotional energy. Again, for an earthbound spirit it is easiest to manipulate the environment in ways that provoke stress responses. Leaving doors open, tossing underwear on the floor instead of in the hamper, accusing someone of misplacing the checkbook or of taking the car keys—all these common quarrels, when repeated again and again, can erode a relationship and damage the peace of a household.
Frequent Respiratory Infections; Colds; Ear or Throat Problems; Asthma
These symptoms are particularly common in children under the age of ten. Adults may also experience frequent sinus infections in addition to any of the other symptoms.
Vision Problems
You may have trouble focusing on certain objects in your home. For instance,
