FREE Facebook LIVE Event Trans-Allegheny Lunatic Asylum 2021 hosted by World Natural Attractions
We thought as a fan of The Psychic Coffee Shop, you would be especially interested in knowing about this event.
Located in Weston, WV Trans-Allegheny is a gothic era 250-bed mental hospital that operated from 1864 until its closure in 1994.
In 2007 was purchased and has subsequently been a local tourist attraction for those both fascinated with the building itself, and the patients that were treated there.
Some of whom are claimed to still walk the halls.
Originally opened as the height of modern mental healthcare in its time, by the 1950s the number of patients housed there far exceeded its original plan by an order of magnitude, eventually peaking at 2,400 patients in the 1950s.
From hope for those suffering acute and severe mental illness, it eventually became a horror in its own right and a showcase of everything that was wrong with the mental healthcare system in the United States.
From SyFy’s Ghost Hunters to Travel Chanel’s Destination fear, the rich history of this building, and the experiences people have had there, keep this a popular destination for those who like to explore all things paranormal.
“The Shot Heard Round the World” when the American
Revolution began on this date 245 years ago in Lexington, MA on April 19th,
1775. This event caused 6,800 Americans to be killed in action, 6,100 were
wounded, with tens of thousands more killed due to disease. A fight for our
nation’s independence, that brought for the bill of rights, the constitution,
that hinged on the very belief that we had inalienable rights, the right to
life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.
And in 2020, there are fighting to kill an estimated 465,695
Americans, to save the economy. The economy that has made them jobless time and
time again. The economy that has left them unable to provide healthcare for
their families. The economy that lets them gamble on whether they may ever
retire. The economy that left them homeless in the foreclosure crisis.
At the whim of a feckless president that demands the power
and authority of a king.
Farmers around our country are dumping the food they have produced. Not for lack of need, but for lack of packaging. A nation is struggling to remain functional in a crisis, to get food to store, to keep people fed, and importantly at home as much as possible. Farms that typically produce for business-level consumers are unwilling to work within those same chains that they have supplied, to get creative, to keep Americans fed. Too hard. Can’t be done.
To follow in the step of the framer before them and load the
trucks and start driving down the road.
Where is our Uber or Lyft style app for farmers? Where is the online farmer’s market? Where is the ability to go back into our history and move our food from farm to table?
From seniors to single moms, and everyone in between. What a
life changer that would be, to move back into our past to move food from farm
to table, with the added benefit of technology to aid the process. No going
door to door, no leaving cash for the milkman, the butcher, the baker, or a
local farmer. Paid, electronically. Delivered to your door.
Big businesses have conditioned farmers to sell in bulk, far
removed from the consumers whose health and nutrition comes from their labor.
And given a taste of what food, without being flown halfway around the world,
stored in refrigerated warehouses and moved in trucks while being handled by
countless people tastes like. How loyal these customers would be, to put a face
and a name to the food that you provide.
Loyalty, gratitude. Fragile but valuable, far beyond prices,
far beyond a post-virus future. These relationships would be a return to the
very core of human values. The simplest and truest form of economy. That basic
level of building block business relationships.
Our government, fighting in this not over how much to help,
but over how much they can help the richest among us first, the most, and save
the economy. Not the people who make that economy, the workers across our
country, but those who rely on the rest to earn their money.
But we are supposed to see ourselves as sacrificial
lambs–465,695 of us, should the 0.14% “Did we just talk the economy” numbers
are correct—ready to die for business as usual. Not for universal healthcare,
not for a universal basic income, not for employee protections, not for
anything of consequence, but for the right for the uber rich to keep from
seeing their stock portfolios go up in flames while we—not the uber rich, you
won’t see them at work for a while—get back to work.
I understand the fear. I understand the fear of a world that
has so quickly spun off its axis. Of a world where the future is uncertain,
where the pain is incredible. Where we are do not know what to do except to try
to go back to what it was. There was fear in 1775 too, and again on April 12,
1861, and spring of 1918 as well. Throughout history we have struggled, faced
fear, endured pain, and through that we have reached astonishing heights. And
at every turn it was we the people, not they the super-rich, who made the
sacrifices, who bore the brunt of fear, who endured the pain.
We, we the people, we did that.
This is not a time to hide in fear in positions of
powerlessness, to run to the security blanket of authoritarian regime. It is
time to fight for our lives. Not just to protect our health here and now in a
pandemic, but to also look past the current health crisis and take stock of
what we have for so long-lost sight of. All men, and women, created equal, the
right to life, liberty, and pursuit of happiness.
Do you really feel running back to business as usual honors
all the sacrifice that came before you?
This is an
article that I write daily for you; So, that you can use this to empower your
daily life. As we move throw this life, we all need to work with in our own
power to not only change our self but also change the world around us. To empower our self so that we embrace the
power within our self to bring change to our life. I hope these words bring you
encouragement in your day.

Abraham-Hicks Quote for Today: Dollars
aren’t the root of happiness but they are not the root of evil either. They are
the result of how somebody lines up Energy. If you don’t want dollars, don’t
attract dollars. But we say to you, your criticism of others who have dollars,
holds you in a place where things you do want, like wellness and clarity and
Well-being, can’t come to you either.

Their message: “You have been hungering for more romance and passion, and your
prayer is answered. I am a Romance Angel, and I am here to help you. New love
is on its way to you, and you can open the door to this romance by opening your
heart. The more that you welcome new love with open arms, the more romance will
come your way. This also means that you must express yourself romantically
toward your partner. Be candid about your feelings and intentions. Be playful
(like we angels are!). And most of all, be openly loving with your partner as a
way of encouraging the flow of romance to return to you.”
“I will give you guidance along the way, and it
may involve actions that seem unrelated to romantic love. Yet, you will know it
is me who encourages you to join a gym, enroll in an evening class, or meet a
new friend, for example. My trademark characteristic is that I create a very
strong feeling in your heart, and then I surround it with warmth, like I’m
giving you a big hug. The more that you follow my guidance, the faster the
romance will be delivered to you.”

Abraham-Hicks Quote for Today: Being
happy is the cornerstone of all that you are! Nothing is more important than
that you feel good! And you have absolute and utter control about that because
you can choose the thought that makes you worry or the thought that makes you
happy; the things that thrill you, or the things that worry you. You have the
choice in every moment.

This Week angel is: Astara
Their message: “In the past, you have settled for less than you wanted. But no more.
I am here to raise your standards. I am also here to show you that you need not
suffer in any way. It isn’t selfish to desire a better life. The more that you
receive, the more you are able to give to others. When you allow us to give to
you, you’re also supplied with all of the necessary tools for your life’s
purpose. You also inspire others when you show that the spiritual path gives
you all of the support you could ever need.”
“God and the angels want you to enjoy your life.
Happiness is a holy part of your Divine mission. Whatever we can do to bring
joy and peace into your life, please ask. We have noticed a reluctance on your
part to ask for help. Perhaps you have felt that you didn’t deserve good, or
that you would be taking away from someone else if you received our help. Yet
God only knows abundance, and humans are the only ones who believe in scarcity.
This card is a reminder that God and the angels can only intervene if you
request our help.”

This Week Positive Affirmation: I am grateful for everything I have.
I grew up with grandparents who were born before sliced
bread. They were babies or not yet born during WWI, part of what became known
as the greatest generation. They married, set up house, and had a baby in the
middle of the Great Depression. One of the places they lived with that baby was
a duplex in which the family upstairs was diagnosed with tuberculosis Though my
grandmother and my father didn’t get sick, they ended up having false positives
on skin tests for it for the rest of their lives.
I couldn’t help but think of my grandparents today,
especially of my grandmother’s general principles of “learn to do without,
have to be careful, and have to be saving,” at a time in which our country is
thrown into a panic of Coronavirus.
Not all of her stories from those times of struggle were
sad, some of them were about the ability to look back and find humor in what,
at the time, seemed like the worst possible thing that could have happened.
There was the time that my father, a small child doing as small children do, knocked over their cupboard of dishes. Every plate, bowl, and cup they owned was suddenly a pile of broken pieces spilled across the kitchen floor. They couldn’t afford to buy new ones. The rage, the fury that swelled up inside of her was overwhelming, at that moment she thought she could have killed her own child for being so careless. Thankfully my grandfather sent him outside and calmed her down. He was born with a club foot, a condition in which at birth his foot was bent to where his heel and toes were side-by-side. They struggled to get it straightened, my father having to wear casts for years and her having to massage and manipulate the foot to get it as it should be. The fear and worry they had about money to pay for him to see doctors, about whether he would ever walk normally, and there he was running carefree through the kitchen like any other child.
Funny years later when times aren’t as tight and with more dishes than you can use crammed everywhere you can put them, at the moment a horrible problem that you can’t solve on top of all the rest.
Or having a washing machine that broke down in a time in which “just buying a new one,” wasn’t an option. My grandfather tried to fix it and, after struggling with it for a considerable amount of time, realized that it was a problem with the motor. Like anyone else who has tried to fix something, there’s that sudden “I know what I need” rush out the door. He removed the motor and rushed out the door to go take it to see if it can be fixed. He got as far as the car before realizing he didn’t have his keys and laid the motor on the sidewalk beside the car to go get them. Two minutes inside the house later, he comes out to find the motor gone.
WWII saw children doing their part for the war effort,
roaming neighborhoods collecting scrap sat on sidewalks in front of houses. It
was a series of unfortunate, but honest, mistakes. They did without, my grandmother
handwashing all their clothes.
Again, funny years later when you don’t have to use a hand crank wringer washer or a scrub board to do your laundry, but at the time a moment in which you feel so bonehead stupid for doing such a thing.
They survived those events and so many more. They helped as they could whoever they could. From taking care of their parents, and anyone else in need.
Their lives, though no storybook, were a testament to resiliency. To being able to find a way to set aside the harsh realities, be creative, be willing to embrace struggle and hardship, and trying to keep a sense of humor and humility.
In many ways, I feel I have inherited some of those traits.
This weekend we ended up traveling miles from the house just
to realize that the reason for the trip, a small workshop, wasn’t that day, but
a week later.
Upon realizing this there were two very distinct reactions
in the car. Mine, and his. His was one of “I cannot believe what I just did, I’m
sorry, I’m so, so sorry.”
And mine, to find it hysterically funny.
The milk was already spilled, there was nothing I could do,
including yelling, screaming, and blaming that would fix it.
We were 150+ miles from home for, effectively, no good
reason. Why be angry? What does that solve? Sure, I would love to have slept in
and not gotten on the road bright and early to make the drive, but that was already
done. What’s the opportunity, what’s the creative solution, what do we do with
it.
For me, it was to realize that we keep saying, “one of these
days when we have a chance, when we don’t have to be in such a rush, when we can
take some time, it would be lovely to just be a visitor and explore these
places we go to.”
We’re here, let’s choose our own adventure!
We did. We did some light shopping, we stopped at places we normally only get to rush through, we tried a new restaurant, and along the way, we turned the day around. Was it the most awesome day ever? No. Could we have planned better? Yes. That, however, wasn’t what we had to work with. We had to take a moment and decide to get creative. To decide that no, this wasn’t the day we had planned, and it wasn’t going to be perfect, but we could salvage it.
Coronavirus panic has taken the world over, just as the panic of realizing you’ve made a massive mistake or shown up at the right place on the wrong day. The solution isn’t to sit in the panic and let it consume you. Panic is not a place to live, it’s a place to visit, it’s sobering. It lets us understand the magnitude and gravity of what has happened or is happening. You take your moment of realizing what has or is occurring, and you move forward and try.
Coronavirus is here, it’s happening, and it’s a serious
issue that needs everyone’s careful attention.
It is also an opportunity to do great things, to push through
the fear, the uncertainty, and the anxiety and find ways to deal with the
challenges that we encounter.
Resiliency, even when it hurts, even when it’s scary, even
when it’s hard is what we need to strive for. The ability to take those
challenges, accept that they are there, and then begin to find ways to overcome
them.
Only with resiliency can we get out of the panic and see that there will be other days ahead. Nothing, good nor bad, lasts forever. This will end at some point, and every day despite whatever else unfolds is one day closer to the end.
What we must accept that this period of unknowns, though difficult, is a call to dig deep and find greatness within ourselves. To find the spirit of our parents, grandparents, and beyond that survived similar or worse than we are facing right now. Somewhere within you exist the traits of that Greatest Generation, of those who survived what seemed impossible, made do, did without, got creative, remembered their friends and neighbors, and found a way.
Coupled with sound medical advice, like social distancing
and other precautions, we will make it through. And, having survived this, it
will bear the same kind of fruits of art, literature, music, social and political
change that have hallmarked generations before us and those that will come long
after us.

Abraham-Hicks Quote for Today: It’s
been a battle among humans, for a very long time, trying to get this picture of
God into a place that is pleasing for them. And the debate about “Is it
evolution? Is it creation? Is it God-inspired, or is it scientifically
inspired…?” And we say, why does it have to be one or the other? Why can’t
everything that is wrapped up in science and vibration be the true essence of
that which you call God? It is all one and the same.

children are genius creators who have just arrived from Nonphysical, who are feeling
