Dear media person or event coordinator,

Hi, I’m LavendarRose, also known as Yvonne Perry. Thank you for inquiring about
having me as the keynote speaker for your event.
I enjoy speaking on spiritual and mainstream topics that interest healthcare workers,
hospice volunteers, caregivers, new-age churches, and groups of empathic people who
feel overwhelmed by the energy of others. I would love to share information about any of
the following topics:
• Body-mind-spirit connection
• Empathy and intuition
• Grieving loss of a loved one
• How to talk about impending death with patient and family
• Spirit communication before and after death
• Psychic children
• Walk-ins and soul exchanges
For more details on any of these topics that I might present in a workshop, please see
my page of speaking topics in this media kit.
For non-ticketed events, an honorarium plus travel and lodging expenses is much
appreciated.
I look forward to hearing from you and sharing with your group.
Enjoying oneness,

LavendarRose/Yvonne Perry

LavendarRose is available to speak to large or small groups that include 
medical symposiums, nursing schools, churches, clubs, organizations, parenting 
groups, and hospice volunteers, staff, and care givers.  One‐hour lectures or 
one‐day workshops can be presented on the following topics: 

Death and Grieving 
There are some aspects of dying and death common to everyone regardless of background.  These 
mainstream topics include hospice and palliative care, giving a dying patient permission to let go, the mind‐
body‐spirit connection, helping a patient and family accept impending death, unplugging a dying patient from 
life support, signs that the end of life is near, and comforting the grieving family. Those who are open to non‐
traditional thoughts will enjoy a presentation of the spiritual aspects surrounding death and dying, which 
include reincarnation, souls in the afterlife, assisting a soul in its release from the body, spirit communication 
during days/weeks after loved one dies, signs that a “deceased” loved one is trying to connect with a family 
member(s), protocol for interacting with spirits.  

Empathy 

Because we are all spiritually and mentally connected, many people—especially those who work in service‐
oriented professions—pick up on the suffering of others. Carrying this surrogate emotional burden puts 
undue stress on intuitive individuals who care for others in a time of illness, loss, or other disturbing 
situation. Learn how to use this empathic ability to send healing vibes and prayer without encountering an 
energetic backlash; set compassionate boundaries with those who tend to drain your energy; clear and 
protect the electromagnetic field that surrounds your body.  

Divine Oneness 

There are many spiritual paths that lead us “home” to our Creator. Regardless of what term you use to refer 
to this higher power or creative force, we share many similar beliefs and ideas. However, our choice of 
terminology may divide us and cause us to segregate into exclusive groups or denominations. Once we see 
how connected we really are and how we are all hoping to reach the same destination, we can accept our 
oneness with God/Goddess/Source and learn to coexist peacefully while respecting our different ways of 
expressing our spiritual nature.  

Psychic Children 

As the consciousness on Earth evolves to align with the Divine cosmic purpose, people are becoming more 
spiritually aware and attuned to what was once considered paranormal or supernatural.  Part of this shift 
includes souls incarnating as children who have instinctive supernatural abilities and rely on their intuition 
to guide them. Our parenting model must change to accommodate these crystal kids, indigos, and “old souls” 
who are enlightened beyond their parents.  

Soul Exchange/Walk­in 

Perhaps the result of a near‐death experience, surgery, or severe depression, people are reporting immediate 
and dramatic life transformations that can’t be explained. Someone you know may be a walk‐in! While some 
old souls incarnate as babies, many are walking into adult bodies through a swap in identity known as a soul 
exchange or walk‐in experience. The two souls literally swap places in order to continue soul development 
on different planes. The occurrence of walk‐ins/outs is not new, but soul exchanges are becoming more and 
more common as the Earth evolves spiritually. While soul exchanges are a significant part of spiritual growth, 
most walk‐ins do not know what has happened to them. They may feel confused, disoriented, and that close 
friends and family members seem like strangers. Onlookers may decide that the walk‐in is having a nervous 
or emotional breakdown  due to the surge this energetic shift causes.

About Yvonne Perry a.k.a. LavendarRose

After recovering from years of religious addiction and a subservient relationship with organized 
religion, Yvonne Perry is finally free to be recognized as one who operates in both worlds—that of 
spirit and physical reality. Living life to the fullest in Nashville, Tennessee, Yvonne is an author, 
podcast host, blogger, and outstanding keynote speaker who enjoys helping people discover a 
spiritual path of love and joy that comes from the knowledge that we are all one with our Creator. 

For the first 40 years of her southern life Yvonne was enmeshed with the fundamental dogma of 
religion and lived according to the interpretation of the Bible that her family, society, and church 
leaders passed down to her. Before she had a label to put on her empathetic ability, the Georgia 
native called herself an intercessor carrying the burdens of others to the throne of grace. It was not 
uncommon for her to be locked away in her prayer room for half the day, singing, playing 
keyboards, writing worship songs, interceding, and laying in trance. While praying for others she 
empathically took on their suffering until it severely challenged her emotional and physical health.  

Four decades of operating as an untrained empath while trying to fit the mold of a male‐dominant, 
legalistic religion, which caused her to repress her true feelings, was met with an eye‐opening mid‐
life crisis. The changes she began making took a toll on her co‐dependent marriage, and after 22 
years, divorce—a “non‐Christian” act she had vowed never to participate in—became a harsh 
reality. Losing everything familiar and comfortable, she found herself homeless. By then, she had 
serious doubts that God even existed and she questioned everything her religion had taught her. 
This was a good thing. She needed to heal not only from divorce, but also from religious addiction 
and this event—while it seemed horrible—was the catalyst for spiritual transformation.  

Realizing how much of her time and energy had been given to religious activities, she became 
extremely angry at the church for not accepting her prophetic gifts and refusing to help her through 
the worse time of her life. Things suddenly and totally changed when Yvonne's original soul left her 
body and a new soul walked in during a pre‐incarnation agreement known as a soul exchange. The 
new soul (LavendarRose) began releasing the karma and healing  the emotional issues of the first 
soul. Embracing a totally different path and belief system, she now openly uses the psychic gifts the 
first soul brought in and fulfill her soul’s purpose to teach oneness with the Divine.  

A graduate of American Institute of Holistic Theology, Yvonne holds a Bachelor of Science in 
Metaphysics. Her style of writing lovingly nudges people’s beliefs in order to help them move past 
what she calls “Sunday School mentality.” She is the host of We Are One in Spirit Podcast, a show 
that offers people a chance to share spiritual insight and join cross‐cultural hands.  

During her five‐year involvement with Toastmasters International, Yvonne earned the recognition 
of Distinguished Toastmaster Award for her exemplary speaking skills. LavendarRose is a polished, 
motivational speaker available to share her knowledge on a wide variety of spiritual topics such as 
walk‐in/soul exchange, psychic gifts, empathy, ascension rituals, ghosts, afterlife, and near‐death or 
other spiritually‐transforming experiences.

Understanding Empathy 
The word “empath” may be a new term for some, but an ever-increasing number of
people are reporting that they are sensitive to all types of energy, including that
produced by other humans, the environment, electromagnetic frequencies, geophysical
stress, and even non-physical beings. Being empathic simply means you are able to pick
up on the energy of others—we can all do that to some degree—but some people are so
sensitive to the emotional energy of others that it causes disturbances in their health
and life. The confusion for empaths comes from not knowing when they are carrying or
attached to someone else’s energy field.
Those who do volunteer or victim protection work, police or detective work, or have
compassionate service-oriented careers at hospitals, clinics, or hospice centers tend to
deal with an overload of emotional energy from patients they tend to. There are some
who rarely go into public because they feel overwhelmed by the energy they pick up.
Many of them don’t know they are empaths, but they would love to learn how to stop the
emotional and mental turmoil they encounter in a highly stimulating environment.
Although it has not yet been studied and proven, some people seem to have unique
variations in their central nervous system that cause them to be intensely affected by
stimuli in their environment. They have an unusual sensitivity to light, smell, sound,
taste, and touch, as well as extra-sensory perception (ESP) or what we might consider
psychic abilities. Many of these highly-intuitive individuals know that something is not
quite “normal” about their abilities since not everyone is adversely affected by going into
public and not everyone picks up on the thoughts, feelings, or pain of those around
them.
In her national bestseller, The Highly Sensitive Person: How to Thrive When the World
Overwhelms You, author Elaine Aron states that as many as one out of every five people
are highly-sensitive. And, no wonder! We live in an age when electronic information in
the airwaves bombards us just about anywhere we go. We carry our cell phones, laptops,
and other electronic devices with us on a daily basis. Our energetic field is infiltrated
with background noise. While most people are able to tune it out or turn it down, some
people have a difficult time processing this vast amount of energy. As a result they may
have anxiety attacks, feel overwhelmed, tired, depressed, angry, or drained much of the
time.
It is especially important for empaths to recognize their own energy and vibration, but
many are not able to discern what their own energy feels like enough to know when it
has roamed into someone’s territory or when it is being violated. If an empath does not
understand what is happening he may think he is suffering from a physical illness or
some form of mental distress or disorder. Psychology and psychiatry currently do not
recognize empaths or know how to treat them. While I am not a psychologist, I am an
empath and this “gift” has both blessed and cursed my life.
There are plenty of well-adjusted and fully-developed empaths including Dr. Caron B.
Goode with whom I am writing a book, Whose Stuff Is This? Finding Freedom From the
Thoughts, Feelings, and Energy of Those Around You.
Developing intuition and empathic abilities is a journey of self-discovery that can
awaken you to an entirely new understanding about life and what you currently believe
about yourself. The more we embrace the fact that we are spiritually, mentally, and
emotionally connected, the more responsible we must become in managing our personal
energy. Everything we think, say, or do affects all of humanity and ultimately our planet.
Let’s join together in a better understanding of this connection through developing the
gift of empathy and intuition.

Endorsements of More Than Meets the Eye

My fear of death led me in search of reassurance, answers, and peace. This book gave it
to me. The stories were told by every day people and by the author. I felt a great sense of
relief and peace upon finishing the book. ~ Dale Morrison Pulaski, TN

Simply an amazing book! Informative, easily understood, and absolutely real. It dispels
the fear of death and soothingly shows that our souls never die; they just continue to
evolve. Communications from loved ones who have passed on are beautifully illustrated.
I couldn't put this book down. If you have questions, they will be answered. If you have
doubts, keep an open mind and take the messages given in this marvelous compendium
of channeled wisdom. Whatever you do, don't let this book get away.
~ Carl David Philadelphia, PA

Vast knowledge about a range of topics including religious viewpoints, personal


accounts, and extremely helpful tips for anyone who is dealing with a dying relative,
hospice care, suicide, and euthanasia. I felt lighter just reading the book as if a healing
was taking place. Yvonne Perry’s research is apparent as she weaves the information
together with first-hand stories from others who have had experiences, and referencing
other authors and experts. Honesty, truth, and comfort. This book can help many people
during a difficult and transitional time. ~ Harriette Knight

This gentle book offers comfort and insight about what happens when we die and what
waits on the other side. Though well documented and researched, Yvonne's work is not a
detached, scholarly report. She writes with passion and love, sharing her personal
stories of near-death experience. Through intimate stories, she shares her own journey
to understanding and offers comforting reassurance that our loved ones can and often
do communicate with us. Yvonne is especially sensitive to those whose religious beliefs
do not adequately answer all their questions, or whose experiences don't match what
they've been taught. No matter what your current beliefs, everyone can benefit from this
wonderful book of insight, comfort, and loving reassurance.
~ Linda Davenport Harrison, TN

Readers who have found answers, but are still open to hearing about others' experiences
will find much of interest in Yvonne Perry's collection of firsthand accounts. She writes
movingly about her own near-death experiences and the spiritual journey that
compelled her to study these subjects. No one religious ideology overlays the book.
Rather, she shares views and experiences of many people, well-documented in her
bibliography.
A fascinating look at the rituals of death from a historical perspective—from early
Egyptian practices to modern embalming in the U.S. after the Civil War. Particularly
interesting and comforting were the true stories of near-death experiences, out-of-body
experiences, and spiritual visitation. Perry's honest, straight-forward style is not bogged
down by a lot of jargon or diversions that wander from the subject at hand. Seekers will
appreciate this book and be glad for the time they've invested in hearing others'
experiences with the greatest mystery on Earth. ~ Sheri Sinykin, Wisconsin

This book offers something for everyone. Whether you are new to learning about near
death experience (NDE) or have studied the phenomenon for years, this title holds a
number of insights. Filled with multiple personal stories told from several points of view
(including friends and relatives of the departed as well as those who've experienced an
NDE), the stories are enlightening and comforting. Perry's book offers reassurance and
comfort to those who've recently lost a loved one or are questioning their own existence.
~ M. Hinds

This book spoke directly to some of the issues I was struggling with as well as areas of
related interest. It is written in a manner that is easy to read without being
condescending. I appreciated the stories but even more the information about burial
options, living wills, and the commentary about how we handle death and the dead in
our culture. I found the near-death experiences and stories about contacting loved ones
on the other side particularly comforting because they come from the experiences of
average people, not folks preaching an ideology or trying to make a buck.
~ Vonnie Faroqui Nashville, TN

A thought-provoking book that provides comfort and enlightenment for those who are
dying, grieving, or watching a loved one die. An excellent book for reaching beyond
religious doctrine and embracing the great mystery of life and death. In addition to
providing support for the idea that life continues after death, the book provides practical
advice about death-related topics such as what is really involved in the embalming
process and the importance of creating an Advanced Health Care Directive or Living
Will. ~Laura Ramirez, author of Keepers of the Children: Native American Wisdom
and Parenting, Reno, NV

In More Than Meets the Eye, Yvonne Perry explains why death is not to be feared, why
many of us do fear death, and ways to overcome our fears. Anyone who has lost a loved
one or who has questions or uncertainties about death and dying will find the book
helpful and informative. This book made me think about life and death in ways I never
have before. ~ Kelli Glesige for Reader Views

Hope and guidance for those who are preparing for a transition to the afterlife, and the
caregivers and/or family members who know them. The book provides insights into the
life/death cycle that motivates us to take advantage of the opportunities we have to

Spirit Communication in the Elderly 

Those who interact with the non-physical realm are sometimes considered insane or in
need of psychiatric help. Unfortunately, many are shunned and ridiculed. Some are
drugged. I've heard of children who were punished for talking about seeing deceased
family members, angels, and ghosts.
If you are one who provides care for those who are near the end of life, you may have
noticed that elderly patients interact with deceased relatives and loved ones. Seeing,
hearing, and communicating with the unseen realm is sometimes an indication that the
transition toward the afterlife is beginning to occur. It gives a vague time line for
determining how long a person may have before the soul departs from the body.
But, what do you do when someone like my grandmother enters palliative care or
hospice? Although she didn't talk much about it until she had her second near-death
experience in 2008, Nanny has heard and seen in the spirit realm ever since her near-
death experience in 1952. Her third and fourth NDEs in 2009 really opened the
airwaves! At age 94, it is a common occurrence for her to communicate with deceased
loved ones and have spirit visitors that no one else can discern.
Why do some people have this psychic ability while others don't? P. M. H. Atwater says
that this intuitive ability is due to the development of the temporal lobes in the brain.
From approximately age two through six, the temporal lobes take in and sort different
forms, shapes, colors, and sounds so children can build neural libraries that let them
know what is expected of them on earth. As this part of brain development nears
completion, the child tends to interact less with the spirit realm and adheres to society
norms.
The elderly and those who have experienced near-death states, surgery requiring
anesthesia, or some type of severe emotional trauma may find that this part of their
brain has been reawakened. They may experience a transformation of consciousness
that allows them to again see, hear, smell, and interact in other worlds. That is what
happened to me after two NDEs and several surgeries.

the Eye True Stories about Death, Dying, and Afterlife.

Reviews for The Sid Series ~ A Collection of Holistic Stories for Children
The Sid Series is a collection of twelve short stories for children written by Yvonne Perry. Von-
Von helps Sid by answering his questions. Each of the stories was written to help parents and
children deal with issues children encounter in their lives. ~ Penny Lockwood Ehrenkranz,
author Ghost for Rent
I was quite impressed with The Sid Series. This is more than a series of cute little stories; it is a
series of life lessons that every parent or grandparent can relate to on some level. A read-to-me
series that your child or grandchild will ask for again and again. I highly recommend it.
~Dennis S. Martin, Baltimore, MD
As parents we all know what it's like to see our children's imaginations run wild with creativity
and curiosity. Sometimes they can amaze us and catch us off guard with their innocent, yet
insightful questions. In The Sid Series we see how Sid used his imagination to make a potion
for his dog's wounded leg, and it worked! He knew it would, more importantly he believed it
would. He learns great thing about being himself and how to overcome being afraid. These are
great lessons for all children and parents! A fantastic book to include in any library at home or
school. ~ Amanda McCurley, Kingston Springs, TN
These stories are great for young kids! They are fun and teach wonderful life lessons. Many
show what a big adventure life can be and others teach what even young children can do to
influence the world for good. One story, my personal favorite, shows how a young boy copes
with the death of a beloved pet. Yvonne has a way of communicating deep concepts in ways
young children can understand. ~ Jonathan John, California
Author, Yvonne Perry, uses her experiences with her grandson Sid to write simple, easy-to-read
stories with profound meaning for a child and parent who read together. Perry made a parent's
job easy by addressing some hot issues that all parents face with their children at some point:
seeing a ghost in the closet, why a best friend has a different skin color, how to choose a healthy
food, how to welcome a new brother, why Mother Nature thunders, why we recycle, and how to
find and play with fairies. I love the pages of different colors, and the bright illustrations are
delightful eye candy. Perry's authentic storytelling emphasizes the use of imagination,
reasoning, problem-solving, acceptance, hugs, and connection. ~Caron B. Goode, Inspired
Parenting Coach
The Sid Series deals with hard issues in a soft manner. Spiritual and sensitive Sidney learns to
understand and value those things that make him and others special, to understand death
without fear, to accept those who are different, to respect nature, earth, and human kind. The
stories guide without preaching and educate without boring. Children, parents and teachers
will enjoy reading this cuddle-up-together book! ~Rachelle Burk, author of Tree House in a
Storm
As someone who has spent over twenty years researching and advocating for the holistic care of
children, I highly recommend this book! The Sid Series is an incredible tool for parents and
those who work with and influence children. There is something magical about a story that
stimulates a conversation that you may not have been able to have with your child. Yvonne
writes from the heart with these lessons of love for both children and parents, assisting adults
with their most important influence on a child, the nurturance of their spirit. Each story is an
opportunity to provide insight and comfort to your child. There is no better way to bring
wisdom to a parent than from real life experience, and Yvonne draws from a rich well full of
luminous foresight. ~ Cathi Curen, Host of Holistic Children Radio
Yvonne's book really opened a pathway for my daughter and me. As a spiritually minded adult,
I try to educate the children in my life with material I feel will foster their holistic growth and
development. Yvonne's book is perfect for that! ~Alice Landry, Holistic Wellness Examiner
The Sid Series is a delightful compilation of stories based on real life situations about the fears,
emotions, feelings, and beliefs that children have in early childhood. This book teaches and
encourages children by validating their experiences. ~ Gordon Randall (Nashville)
Little Stories with Big Concepts. How do you help a young child explore the concept of inner
guidance? How do you talk to your children about diversity, facing their fears, listening to their
body's wisdom? Yvonne Perry has written a delightful series of children's stories that explore
these topics and more. ~ Linda Davenport, Harrison, TN
Inspired by her grandson, Sidney, Yvonne has woven her weekend visits with Sidney into
charming tales. Those of us who enjoy talking with children can take a hint from the
straightforward, simple, loving language "Von-Von" uses when talking with Sidney about
concepts as difficult as the death of a loved pet or as potentially frightening as a monster in the
closet. Sidney is an exceptional child with spiritual gifts, and Yvonne gently helps him embrace
his gifts by using daily experiences to help him understand the power of his imagination, a
gentle, age-appropriate introduction to magical concepts that sets the stage for more learning
as he grows older.
Those who are looking for stories to share with very young children, or parents, who would like
ideas for how to talk with little ones about spiritual concepts without getting over their heads,
will find The Sid Series to be just the ticket. The illustrations are charming and fun, the stories
short, simple, and sweet. Don't let that fool you; these stories carry big concepts. There is a
definite shortage of material for children that touches on these concepts. The Sid Series is a
welcome breath of fresh air.
Friendly, entertaining, and educational! Told in a comforting and spiritual manner, the stories
reach out to young and old alike. Yvonne Perry’s interaction with the spirit world began as a
child and has developed into a gift that blesses those seeking a better understanding of
spiritual gifts. The art work engages children visually as they listen to the short stories and
learn about life in terms they can understand. ~Lisa Haselton, Nashua, NH
My son and I really enjoyed these stories. They cover a variety of real life topics that children
deal with, and they validate what a child may be feeling or thinking in similar situations. I
recommend this book to parents and kids! ~Wendy Lachmuth (PA)
A book to help children through challenging issues in a gentle, kind, and spiritual way! From
dealing with the death of a pet, learning inner guidance and understanding destiny and making
choices (to name just a few) these stories are tender, beautiful lessons a parent or grandparent
can share with the children in their lives. This book is truly a treasure to help every child see
themselves as a gift, and help them grow into the person they were meant to be. ~Barbara
Techel, Author of Frankie, the Walk 'N Roll Dog Book Series
The stories connect with the holiness inside the child to grow it into greater wholeness. The
acceptance and affection embraced in these stories and illustrations are a joy to see. ~ Janet
Riehl, St. Louis, MO
In The Sid Series, Ms. Perry brings her book to life to give children a chance to express their
own feelings and visions. An excellent addition to the library system, to be shared by parents
and educators. ~Irene Brodsky, Faculty Member of Brooklyn College City University of New
York

Does Your Child Have an Imaginary Friend? 
If your child interacts with an invisible playmate, he or she is not alone or crazy. By the
age of seven more than 60 percent of children have had at least one imaginary friend.
Although not seen by grownups, the friend may be personified in a doll or stuffed
animal. Some of these friends may reside constantly with your child while others simply
drop by once in a while for a visit.
Sometimes an imaginary friend gets blamed for things that the child did. For example,
my son's imaginary friend named Peter got blamed for not picking up his wet towel and
swimsuit after a visit to my mom's pool one summer. It was actually my son who didn't
pick up his towel and swimsuit. Peter somehow missed getting in our car when we left
Mom's that day. I must have said something to discourage my son because when I
refused to go back and pick up Peter, my son never mentioned his friend again. If I had
it to do over, I would have turned around and drove back to Mom's to get my son's
friend. When he was about five years old, my son's son, Sidney, had sword battles with a
group of playmates he called the Onks.
Is the invisible playmate contrived in the child's mind or is having an imaginary friend a
trait of a child who is interacting with the spirit realm? I'm inclined to believe that it is a
sign that the child is in touch with his or her inner guidance.
When I was a child I had a little yellow duck. My duck sat next to me at the table, took
rides on my bike, listened to all my secrets, and went everywhere I went. I left the duck
in my grandmother's lap when I was about five or six years old. I forgot about him until I
was 40 years old. When I was going through a very difficult time in 1999, I dreamed of
my little yellow duck. In the dream, my duck asked me if he could come back and I said
yes. The next time I saw my grandmother I asked her if she still had my duck. I expected
that she might have completely forgotten about him, but to my surprise she said, "Yes, I
still have him. I've been waiting for you to come back to get him." I thought she was just
playing along with me as she pretended to transfer him to me, but things in my life
changed after that incident. I found that the voice of my internal guidance was turned
up a notch. I began hearing wise and logical advice in my head that led me to make
decisions that were remarkably healing for me. Looking back on my imaginary friend, I
now realize that my yellow duck was one of my spirit guides.
Some children speak in an unknown language with their imaginary friends. My step-
granddaughter had an Asian-sounding language that she used before she learned to
speak English. She called me Ho-Ho, and while I wasn't sure whether she was equating
me with Santa, I sensed that she and I had been together in a past life in which we
shared this language.
It's fun to observe a child interacting with an imaginary friend. Listen to their
conversations. They may be telling you something about themselves or working out a
problem or stressful situation. Always encourage your child's developing imagination
and never discount the possibility that your child may be receiving inner guidance that
will serve him well all his life.
If your child has an imaginary friend, there is no reason to be upset. Whether or not
your child's playmate is a spirit guide, it is a natural and positive experience for your
child to enjoy these invisible friendships. They give a child confidence when in a
frightening or unfamiliar situation, such as the first day of kindergarten. Children try
out different roles of authority with their imaginary friend and may become the teacher,
mother, father, doctor, or zoo keeper!
Yvonne Perry is the author of The Sid Series ~ A Collection of Holistic Stories for
Children. These 12 body-mind-spirit stories highlight unique lessons about love,
acceptance, self-worth, caring for the body, diversity, facing fears, dealing with change,
experiencing the death of a pet, using spiritual gifts, and psychic experiences today's

Nashville Author and Speaker Shares the Life-altering Belief in Oneness As


a Way to End Conflict

Based on A Course in Miracles, a Nashville author has established a blog, Web site, and
podcast to broadcast her message about the oneness of all souls with the Creator.

NASHVILLE, TN June 1, 2010 — Yvonne (McCurley) Perry was an intercessor for the City
of Muncie from 1995 to 1997. While there, she used her connections at a Christian
bookstore where she worked to organize inter-denominational events that brought
together almost every church in the city. Since moving to Nashville, she has changed her
philosophy and embraced a tolerant and non-religious mindset to aid her in bringing
heaven to earth. Her new We Are One in Spirit Podcast hosts guests who have an
unbiased, unifying message to offer those interested in such topics as universal laws,
alternative healing modalities, intuition and Divine guidance, metaphysics, afterlife,
mystical experiences, Paganism, Christianity, and other belief systems. Not all shows
have guests. Some of the episodes are short teachings based on A Course in Miracles
and insight she receives during her daily meditation.

We Are One in Spirit Page 2

“People must stop believing that they are depraved sinners,” says Perry, who also goes
by the name of her higher self, LavendarRose. “As long as we see ourselves as separate
from the Divine and one another, we will continue to harm one another and our planet,
and we will engage in conflict whenever we perceive our values are being attacked. This
is because we see ourselves and others as condemned and deserving of punishment.

“People are more likely to listen to those they know and trust when it comes to spiritual
guidance. Due to all the moral misconduct and power-hungry agendas of religious
leaders, many people have become disillusioned with traditional churches. In the past
few decades, people have been exposed to a variety of belief systems in our global
culture and they are using common sense when it comes to formulating their personal
belief system. As people continue to see truth in the message of inclusion taught by
Carlton Pearson and the Emergent Conversation, people are leaving religion behind
along with its dogma that was passed to them from their predecessors. Even those who
have been “saved” and jumped through all the hoops supposedly required to appease an
angry God are leaving the organization. They no longer believe in a God that has human
attributes and sadistic characteristics. Humans treat their offspring better than this
angry, God, which has been created in the image of man, treats his sons and daughters.

“The old hyped-up way of promoting a religious belief with an in-your-face approach,
has gone the way of the wind. No one wants another person force-feeding them the
doctrine of separation that says those who do not agree with the teachings of the church
are going to suffer and burn in hell. There’s no good news in that message and it is not
the message of Christ.”

A lot of people have been victims of this type of religious teaching. They’ve been
brainwashed by a misinterpretation of the Bible that promotes hatred and states that
God takes sides in battle and upholds the cause of Israel and the righteous. According to

~ MORE ~
We Are One in Spirit Page 3

most religious teachings, the modern-day righteous are those who believe the dogma of
Judeo Christianity. This philosophy, lived out in the form of judgment toward self and
others, is nothing like the peaceful and unifying message Jesus taught. Perry has
experienced this type of rejection in many churches where she has tried to use her
spiritual gifts of healing and prophecy.

According to the Bible and the law of attraction presented in the movie, The Secret,
whatever we think about comes about. If we believe we are worthless wretches in need
of a bloody savior to rescue us, we will never do greater works than Jesus Christ did,
which is one of the promises in the New Testament. There will be those who disagree
with this “oneness” idea. Perceiving that they are being attacked, fundamentalists lash
out against the teaching of oneness, much like they have against the gay community and
stem cell research.

The only solution to the age-old problem of ego, suffering, and fighting is to see
ourselves as one with the Divine. Perry teaches oneness and love for all on her blog
(http://WeAreOneInSpirit.com), Web site (http://WeAre1InSpirit.com), YouTube video
(http://youtube.com/weareoneinspirit), and podcast shows archived on her blog and
iTunes.

Seeking to Save the Lost: Who ARE the Lost? 

The lost, which Jesus came to seek and save, are those who have forgotten they are one
with God and have chosen to live as though they (and others) are separate from this
creative spirit essence in which we live, move, and have our being.
This limited and fear-based mindset is what Bishop Pearson refers to as "exclusivity" or
the "us and them" syndrome. We are in no way (other than through our faulty thinking)
separate from the life force that created us. We are all divine. We are like a pieces of a
hologram; individual parts of the whole, having the exact image or DNA of God/Source.
The concept of oneness reveals how no one on this planet is lost or going to a literal
place called heaven or hell. The only heaven or hell we will ever experience is that which
we create in our minds through our beliefs.
The religious, legalistic (neoconservatives, fundamentalists) folks who seek to either
condemn or convert the lifestyle of others are the Pharisees that Jesus rebuked many
times over in the Bible. These Pharisees—suicide bombers, right-wing evangelistic
lobbyists, those who picket abortion clinics in the name of their god—are against
anything and anyone that doesn't believe their doctrine or conform to their moral
expectations. These religious people are still following man-made laws, dogma, and
doctrine that preach doom and destruction rather than peace and acceptance—totally
against the teaching of Jesus. These are the lost souls. Like all of us, they need only to be
saved from their own ideology.
If God is love, then why all the violence, wars, and resistance? That's no way to
reconnect with God. It only reinforces the sad lie that humankind is somehow separate
from our creative source.
When the light (illumination, Christ consciousness) comes, darkness (cloudy, separatist
thinking) will fade away. Therefore, I send love and light to all "lost" souls who,
according to their own human image, have made god out to be a punishing deity and
have forgotten that they were made in the image of the great light.
We are spirit having a human experience. We are one in spirit.
