It might have been M. Night Shayamalan who made that statement famous and Haley Joel Osments’s character that makes you remember how scared he was when he first acknowledged it, but it is where “Sixth Sense” ends where I feel I have ultimately ended up.
I have always felt like someone has been watching “over me,” I just thought to myself, “Maybe it is G-d…”, “Maybe it was in my head,” “Maybe people would think I was a freak,” Stephanie, just don’t question it. Suppress, Suppress, Suppress. I didn’t have proof and it seemed too daunting to try and find out how I would get proof, so I compartmentalized anything that felt “supernatural.” I would still have that nagging feeling, but it was easier to hide from it. That is until, I died.
As you will read in 37 Seconds, I did not question where those premonitions came from at first. I didn’t pray to G-d or meditate for an answer to reveal itself. I was in panic mode and I felt those visions were real. It felt like a tidal wave running through me and I had to do something, anything to save my life.
When recovering from my amniotic fluid embolism and in complete shock, I realized everyone who had made me feel like I was crazy for talking about those visions quieted down and were in their own state of shock. I also understood in that moment, no one would be able to give me any answers, how could they? They didn’t believe me in the first place. But now that they witnessed it, they were forming their own possible reasons. Now was the time I needed to ignore them and find my own answers.
I have a strong faith, but after everything I went through, I still couldn’t accept that something or someone outside of this dimension helped me with 100% blind faith. There had to be a reason I was feeling it throughout my body. That I was seeing things beyond this world. There HAD to be an explanation.
The therapy, as many of you saw a snippet of it on this website or on Facebook shows me in incredible pain. This next clip will show you the first time I was able to see within those 37 seconds in Heaven. There was a lot of download in those seconds. A lot. So when many people say “she didn’t die long enough to experience all that she says she did,” I say, time and space do not exist in this other dimension. As discussed in this DailyMail UK article, Professor Lanza shows how space and time don’t mean what we know it to mean in a linear fashion. And understanding and believing in that from many sources in my research, helped me open up to much more.
It is why I was able to see many loved ones who had passed and give back messages to their respective loved ones I knew. It is why I met others I did not know who had messages I couldn’t have possibly known to give back to their loved ones and why they kept asking me “how do you know this?” My answer had always been “I DON’T KNOW!” A lucky guess? But how could I know about a detailed coin, or a specific design on an apron a mother used to wear 30 years before her death for someone I just met. Or how is it the visions of a clear, beautiful Christmas experience with my friend and her late father came into my mind, with what he and she were wearing, doing, sitting and saying. HOW? As more and more of these experiences started happening and my premonitions kept coming, I felt like I had accidentally opened a portal and there was no turning back.
My husband at one point said, “Well close that portal! It is interfering with your every day life.” I said “I DON’T KNOW HOW?!” I spoke to my therapist, Linda, and she said “Stephanie, you might not want to think of yourself as a Medium, but it is what you are.” I thought about it and I told her “I am not a medium.” I felt, wrongly so, that a medium was a svengali, a side-show act, a circus freak– name all the labels you want and it was how I felt. I couldn’t grasp onto it and I didn’t want everyone asking me about what their relatives were doing on the other side.
A friend of mine produces the show “Tyler Henry, Hollywood Medium.” In the first episode he spoke of being 10 years old, the same way I describe myself at 10 years old in my book and how he and I related to our grandmother’s about knowing of their passing. He then talks about the physical symptoms and the way those visions come into his head and body when he is about to do a reading. I texted my friend.. “Steph, I experience everything this amazing young medium is discussing, almost identical. I want to learn more.” It was the first time I could relate to someone’s Tell. This was all new to me. I was having this all thrown at me at once and I just had all of this trauma and many years of life to deny its actual existence. Tyler is so blessed to be so young and so accepting. And his mother has been so embracing of it. I only wish that was my experience. So what Tyler knows to be fact has taken me 44 years to finally accept. I am jealous, in such a good way, to know that I am not alone and that by owning it, accepting it, more truths will reveal themselves and life will be more rewarding than ever before. I am nowhere near his talent, and it isn’t my destiny to follow in his footsteps. It’s taken me years to accept this as a gift and not a curse. I am grateful to be enlightened that there are others who experience similar feelings. THAT is empowering and validating. I also know things are happening more rapidly as I accept them to be truth. And that knowing, has helped me and many others to heal. All of this is no coincidence.
The more things that happen on a weekly basis, the more I have no choice but to let go of everything I thought before and appreciate and embrace the new life I am now living. I accept the new space. I accept what comes my way. I accept the criticism and the judgements as not a direct affect at me, but a perceived conditioning of others and their projections. Because my truth, as difficult as the journey has been, is now my truth. I am living it. And life as I have known it, is forever changed.
I finally have admitted to myself, “I’m an Accidental Medium.” I didn’t ask for this. But now that I’m in it, I am in it. Open to it and all that comes with it.
I definitely see dead people. Which means to me, they are not really dead. Their spirits, just like yours are forever thriving, growing and experiencing new things. Just as mine is today. And just like in the end of the movie, I am not scared of it, I am grateful for it and have accepted it as truth. And those around me, who have been witness to it, accept it too. Finally, everyone is being heard.
I AM JUST ME. Stephanie Arnold. Wife of Jonathan Arnold. Mother to three amazing children. Strong. Present. In both body and spirit. Full of light and love.
