Kia Abilay was born a Rainbow Child—a child who comes after the loss of another child. Join Kia Abilay on her spiritual journey, through a Catholic upbringing, to a career as a manager of hotels, to a convent, to 13 years of Healing Touch practice at Omega Institute in Rhinebeck, New York. It’s a journey that spans from Hawaii to Healdsburg, California, to Kingston, New York. Along the way, countless clients have been touched by her gifts and found healing in messages relayed by Kia.
A high school football star dies on the practice field. Kia sits with the family and channels the lost son, bringing solace to the mother too grief-stricken to face the funeral. “Walk the lands,” the message comes—how mother and son had always spent time together.
“There’s a piece of lumber on your derriere” is a funny message to receive. But when shared with a client, the man on the table, in his forties, breaks into tears. His father used to strike him with pieces of wood.
To enjoy the Gift of Listening is to recognize the spiritual intuition that we all possess. This book was written in hope that its readers may feel empowered to listen intensely to their inner selves, to recognize the daily presence of Source, and to trust their incredible body.
Ponder Questions woven into each chapter help you consider your own story, so that you can tell it, whether privately viewing or orally, journaled, or shared in a book. Deep listening helps us receive the guidance and knowledge we need to move ahead, and story’s from Kia’s life illustrate the solace and peace that can be found in listening.
Each chapter concludes with a Rainbow Heart Tip: activities you can do, with insights on how to incorporate them to grow your listening practice. These are activities to find your centeredness, to let go of anxiety, and to hear the voice of the Divine, however it reaches you, however it speaks. They include: playing chimes, morning reading, somatic body scanning, and prayer.
Abilay’s tales are told with the open-mindedness and generous perspective that has been with her, throughout her career as a One Spirit minister, Akashic Records teacher, and now film actress.
How do we release trauma from the body? How do we identify places we’re stuck? How can we find guidance and support in our life—from within, and from the universe? This book will awaken your connection with the divine, with the beautiful synchronicities in your life, with gratitude, with the natural world. And most of all it will help you discover the gift we’ve all been given at birth: the gift of listening.
