Michele Doucette holds a Master’s Degree in Literacy Education from Mount Saint Vincent University (Halifax, Nova Scotia). A native of Truro, Nova Scotia (referred to as Cobequid during the time of the Acadian people), she has been living on the west coast of Newfoundland since 1985. Employed as a Special Education teacher, she feels blessed to work with such Mighty Spirits.

An avid reader and researcher, Michele has always been fascinated with history. Just as passionate about genealogy, she has spent the last fifteen years validating, sourcing and accruing pertinent documents related to her family history. A successful mtDNA recipient, she continues to encourage others to do the same, especially in light of the fact that current DNA testing is serving to both prove and rewrite history.

She credits Nick Bunick, subject of The Messengers: A True Story of Angelic Presence and the Return to the Age of Miracles, for leading her into the adventurous realms of the metaphysical unknown. As a result, she has been managing the website, Portals of Spirit, since the dawn of the millennium. She holds firm in her belief that the quality of our world depends upon the quality of our thoughts as individuals.

A member of WANL (Writer’s Association of Newfoundland and Labrador) as well as a dedicated author of spiritual, metaphysical and philosophical material, she is most excited about the release of A Travel in Time to Grand Pré, her first novel. As is typically the case with writers, she is currently working on the sequel, Back Home With Evangeline.

My article, entitled Getting Out Of Our Own Way, is now featured in the current issue of Metaphysical Mind Ezine located at http://www.whatismetaphysics.com/getting-out-of-our-own-way.html. I am so pleased that Jason wanted to share it with his subscribers. A conscientious young man, he, too, wants to assist in positioning the information out there. Thank you, so much, Jason. Clearly, understanding the power of beliefs and the power of the mind, both individually and en masse, is the most pressing and crucial issue for humankind to grasp (so noted by Barbara Marciniak, author of Path to Empowerment: Pleiadian Wisdom for a World in Chaos).

Turn off the TV: Turn on Your Mind

Turn off the TV: Turn on Your Mind
We are conditioned to believe that what we are looking for exists outside of ourselves. This is the belief that has served to help enslave us. Truth be told, all that is needed to unlock the power of the human mind exists within, for the mind is incredibly dynamic and needs to be both recognized and acknowledged as such. Learn deeply of the mind and its mystery for therein lies the true secret of immortality is the message put forth in The Secret in the Bible by Tony Busby. This sixteen-worded sentence, extracted from the ancient Book of God, a mysterious old document written on fabric of an unknown nature, and highly regarded by the Ancients thousands of years ago, is what now serves to highlight the individual journey of many, this author included. It is in defining both the ego as well as the authentic self that one is able to embrace the now. Spiritual enlightenment and conscious awareness is what comes of regaining the power of one’s own thought processes from pre-programmed thoughts/ideas/belief systems as long dictated by society.

SEPTEMBER 11, 2010

Every day of our lives we are bombarded with negativity from our televisions. The news fills our days with murder, terrorism, H1N1 virus scares, bombings and more. Our favorite TV drama is typically the police, chasing criminals that murder, steal, rape and kidnap innocent children. All of this 24/7, each and every day: is it any wonder, then, that we are all filled with negativity in our minds, our hearts and even our souls?

Author Michele Doucette offers a simply solution... turn off the TV! Now I know that most of you are so obsessed with the "box" that this will be impossible, but why not change your TV experience to one that is enjoyable, one that will bring you positive energy? Don’t watch the news, watch the sitcom that makes you laugh. Find alternatives to the negative media that fills our lives.

When one person changes his/her thought energy from negative to positive, the earth and all its inhabitants are on the way to a better, more positive life. Just one person!

Once you are convinced that your life will be much better in the positive, Turn Off The TV: Turn On Your Mind will guide you to reconnect with "Source, the nondual existance." The book is filled with affirmations, visualizations and other positive actions that you can take. Written in simple language, with many references to books, websites and newsletters, this book will be your guide to turning off the negativity and turning on the "Light".

Readers will learn to grasp the distinct difference between body/ego, soul and spirit. You will be guided gently towards becoming more in tune with your intuition, your true self. An excellent read!

A Travel in Time to Grand Pré

NEW IMPROVED Second Edition available.

A Travel in Time to Grand Pré A Travel in Time to Grand Pré is a historically informative adventure, tying the history of the descendants of Yeshua to modern day Nova Scotia, Canada. Madeleine Sinclair feels disconnected with the era of her birth. Transported back to 1754, she comes to learn, live and experience firsthand the lives of the French Acadian people, meeting Michel (dit Sophie) LeBlanc.

Through the warm, loving and helpful guidance of fellow time traveler, Madame Pré, she comes to understand the predetermined course of her Sinclair bloodline, beginning with Rollo the Viking, father of William Longsword, a line that is shown to be linked to the Merovingians, the Cathars and the Knights Templar (protectors of the Holy Grail).

Before long, the reader is led to the very apex of this time travel adventure. Madeleine has been decreed the one who is to introduce the words of Yeshua, spoken in Aramaic at the height of his ministry, to the modern world.

A TRAVEL IN TIME TO GRAND PRÉ

February 2011 Review

In 2005, Madeline St. Clair celebrates her 26th birthday by attending Acadian Day at Grand Pré Historic Park in Canada. Inexplicably, Madeline finds herself traveling back to 1754, where, through the guidance of a fellow time traveler, Madam Pêche, she comes to comprehend her family’s history and their historical importance. As Madeline learns about her ancestors, she falls in love with local Michel LeBlanc, and together they discover their unique destiny.
This novel reads like a travel journal, and Doucette’s historical research is evident on each page. She includes genealogy charts, inspirational quotes, and poems to connect readers to the history of the French Acadians. Readers will gain great perspective on the Knights Templar and Merovingians, and the spiritual undertones will appeal to fans of mystical fiction. Recommended for anyone interested in the history of the French Acadians.

AUGUST 10, 2010 ATTENTION HISTORIANS. A Travel in Time to Grand Pré may be YOUR must-read! A Travel in Time to Grand Pré by Michele Doucette was not in the least what I was expecting. Instead, it is a unique, fascinating plunge into history! It also explores genealogy, Biblical archaeology, metaphysics, and, most importantly, the French Acadians. I can guarantee that, for millions of people who may read this book, there will be information never heard before! Perhaps disturbing information; readers may automatically discount it or may willingly explore the extensively researched documentation. For this book is not just a novel, it is an exploration of the past sometimes dating back as early as 400 AD.

There is also mention of current DNA testing as it is used to prove and rewrite history. Do we dare to explore the possibilities of changing well-known beliefs? If you are willing, then this book should be considered a must-read.

It is rare for a reviewer to be able to say, "now where does the story really begin?" But that must be said! Can you go directly to the story without having been "set" into the historical significance of the story as has been done? Could I start on page 48 where there is a Special Message from Madeline Sinclair. Yes, after reading the earlier pages, perhaps I should begin there, for it is when Madeline Sinclair pays a visit to the statue of Longfellow’s Evangeline, on August 15, 2005, after she had eaten traditional Acadian dishes in keeping with the Acadian Day celebration. It was also the day before Madeline would celebrate her 26th birthday, and began crying, not knowing why.

Was it the Dandelion wine? Whatever it was, she became afraid, there at the base of the statue, as she fought her dizziness and nausea...

Madeline opened her eyes on her birthday on August 16, 1754. The statue of Evangeline was gone as was everything else that had surrounded her at the Acadian celebration. It was in an ancient church that she met Madame Pêche, another time traveler...

And so it began, Madeline had not left Grand Pré, except in time. It was her destiny; she had been brought to that place at that time for a specific reason. Madeline was astonished as Madame Pêche told her all about herself, even to the point of knowing that she had a birthmark. It looked like a Templar cross. Madame Pêche explained " that, in and of itself, makes you the one."

And so it was that Madeline began the life of those living during the year 1754. They hid her backpack which had come across time with her and Madeline began to learn about everything that was happening.

She also soon met Michel. Fortunately she found him to her liking, because he was to become her husband, and there was much to learn and do... before they both returned...

Dare you learn what it is they brought back to the 21st century?

Michele Doucette has weaved an amazing tale. Perhaps you have read or heard of similar stories where two individuals meet from different times and fall in love. It is indeed somewhat of a simple love story...except...

You will also learn about the tragedy of the Acadian people when they refused to change their allegiance... and of so much more! I think one of the key issues of the book is that there is so much historical documentation provided in support of the story. Is it an alternative historical tale, perhaps fantasy based upon history, or the work of a research historian who has merged all of her research to arrive at a potential "new truth"?

Now matter your final conclusion, A Travel in Time to Grande Pré by Michele Doucette is unlike anything I’ve ever read. And, in that, she has forced me to remember and to dwell upon her words often. Very unique; I've said before...I like unique...I hope my review helps you decide to read the book and decide for yourself!

AUGUST 3, 2010

Madeline Sinclair was drawn to Grand Pré Historical Park on Acadian Day, August 15, 2005, one day shy of her twenty-sixth birthday. In a search for her Acadian roots, she was eagerly looking forward to joining in the festivities. At the end of the day, however, she finds herself with a complete stranger in Grand Pré, the year being 1754. Shocked and unsure, she is relieved to learn that Madame Pêche is not only a kindly, loving woman, but a time traveler as well.

Madeline will learn much from Madame and her young friend, Michel. Many of the questions that Madeleine has about the Knights Templar, in the 21st century, are answered here in this Grand Pré of old. What she learns is not only shocking, but very enlightening.

Michele Doucette has spun a fascinating tale of the eighteenth century Acadians, interwoven with spiritual beliefs and customs still practiced today. Not only will readers be entertained, but they will also be educated as they travel with Madeline on this most interesting journey of self discovery.

This is the author’s first novel, and although it appears amateurish at times, her characters are realistic and her descriptions of historical places are vivid and in depth. She can only grow as an author and this reviewer hopes to see more in the near future. I was very impressed with the Message for the 21st Century chapter at the end of the book. A wonderful conclusion to a thought provoking novel.

The Ultimate Enlightenment For 2012: All We Need Is Ourselves

Book Synopsis: Caught up in the web of competition, greed, jealousy, envy and hate, we have been lost to ourselves for a very long time. We have completely forgotten who we are. We have forgotten how to celebrate the expanse and greatness of all life. As we awaken and become more aware, our life is filled with the vibrations of love, peace, joy, wisdom and harmony. As one both experiences and emanates these vibrations, thereby discovering who they really are, the spark of Divine Love begins to flame within each individual soul, growing in intensity until completely embracing that which is life. It becomes one’s birthright, henceforth, to be happy, and, in so doing, to provide an atmosphere of peace, joy and devotion (service) towards all life, including the animal kingdom, plant kingdom and mineral kingdom. It is in performing even the most humblest of tasks, that we begin to experience supreme satisfaction. In having done so, the whole of Creation triumphs.

Michele Doucette initially released The Ultimate Enlightenment For 2012 as an ebook on July 13, 2007, she is most excited about the release of this paperback edition, holding firm in her belief that the quality of our world depends upon the quality of our thoughts as individuals.

AUGUST 30, 2010

As the spark of Divine Love begins to flame within each individual soul, it grows in both intensity and magnitude until it completely embraces that which is life (page 1).

A guide, a teacher, a spiritualist or someone who is trying to "wake us up," this is how one would describe author, Michele Doucette. With an unimaginable insight, she takes readers on a journey to Self. Her easy conversational style make this an easy read, with a message that is loud and clear. The information found within is well thought out and presented in an entertaining manner.

Many quotes and insights from various spiritualists are included in the book, adding authenticity and confirmation to the thoughts found within. Experts include Jean-Claude Koven, Nick Bunick, Jon Peniel, Ethan Walker III, and many more. No one will be able to read this book and not come away with a sense of wanting to know more. Knowing this, Michele Doucette has included an abundant reference list of books, websites and other sources that rival most libraries.

The book has been referred to as a roadmap; I would have to agree that it is indeed a roadmap ... to God. Anyone searching for God’s Truth, whether a "newbie" or a seasoned seeker, should read this book.

Michele Doucette is the author of several books including Turn Off The TV:Turn On Your Mind, A Travel in Time to Grand Pré, among others. She is the webmistress of Portals of Spirit, located at http://www.portalsofspirit.com/. She also holds a Crystal Healing Practitioner’s diploma and is a Level 2 Reiki Practitioner.

Veracity At Its Best

Book Synopsis:

Veracity comes from the Latin word veritas, meaning verifiable truth. The only constant in life is that of change. All is constantly unfolding, evolving, growing and expanding. The next most important constant in life is that of truth. Many are so sure that the way to gnosis, nirvana and enlightenment is through a multitude of books and CD programs, metaphysical tools and spiritual teachers. It feels so much more liberating to know that, whilst all of these may come into our lives, they serve merely to help us develop, strengthen and acknowledge our own inner teacher. Clearly, what we are seeking exists within. Now is the time for the new spirituality to emerge.

The Collective: Essays on Reality

Book Synopsis: This volume is a collection of two essays. The personal experience of this author has dictated that one must first acknowledge what appears to be happening before reconfiguring the responses of their past; hence, Essay One presents material that may elicit uncertainty and confusion for some readers. It has been the intent of this author to better inform the reader, so that all can work on actively disengaging from the Matrix. Thinking leads to questions and questions lead to knowledge. In order to begin to awaken from the deep slumber (spell) that has enslaved humanity for thousands of years, it is necessary to read, to reflect, to meditate and to learn, all in an attempt to get to know one’s true self. Was it not Yeshua ben Yosef (Jesus, son of Joseph) who encouraged us to seek so that we would find? Essay Two focuses on different ways in which one can more effectively work towards changing themselves. It is knowledge exists at the very core of all existence. The more knowledge and insight that one is able to attain, the more evolved they are able to become. It must be shared, however, that knowledge does not always equate to awareness. It is possible, unfortunately, to have one without the other. It becomes in accepting the moment, appreciating the moment, having faith in the universe with no expectations whilst celebrating diversity that one can begin to change their reality. It is positive energy that nourishes the soul and truth that liberates.
