"I am not going to interfere with your life. I am not going to make you change. I am not going to change the paradigms that you are structuring, all I am doing is giving you an opportunity to be who you really are."

Ann Christi understands the cutting edge principles of a new world order that is about to shift the makeup of the planet as we know it today--it is a ‘shape-shifting of consciousness’--"The planet is ready, and there are many that are not only open to, but willing to take their lives to the next level of becoming a conscious co-creator."
Ann is a radio host, healer, speaker, writer, guide and mystic. She has the ability to receive, read and activate energy and create pathway's for bringing awareness and solutions where there were none before. She assists all those that are willing to break old patterns for new paradigms.
When we asked her about her book 'Cravings of the Soul' published in 2002, as well as the target dates for bringing out her new books, "The Ascension Principles' , 'Life Reflecting Back' and 'A New World Orderr', integrating the principles she understand quite clearly today, she replied, "Although the book Cravings of the Soul was written with a consciousness that I have surpassed, believe me, I have continued to work with its message and principles everyday. This information is very important because if people don't know how to get from point A to point Z, they stay stuck where there are. We all need a coach for the basic principles as well as those principles that will take them to a space of understanding the consciousness of union. Cravings of the Soul is about a very real human existence, as well as the integration of new processes that can be applied to a persons daily life that allow them to become the co-creator of the human experience that they have always desired. My new works will come out when the time is right. What is important is that we each listen to our own inner truth and not take anything anyone else says at face value, it is time people begin to go inside and feel what the vibration is,and go from the space of what resonates to their own being and not because someone else told them. Vibration creates movement, and is telling them what they need to do and where they need to be. Vibration is linked to the heart, and it is not of the ego mind. "

Ann's passion is speaking to individuals or groups that are not only looking for ways to change their lives, but also willing to do whatever it takes to assist in the creation of their ideal life. She has clients from teens to 80's.

Ann holds a ministerial license, although Christianity was her upbringing, she favors Spirituality, "To me Churches have there purpose, but for me many segregate instead of integrate as Spirituality does. I prefer to marvel at our similarities and learn from our diversity, and to remember that it is our diversity that not only makes this experience interesting but it shows us what we want and what we don't--that has tremendous value. I do not believe one way is more right or better than another."  Ann enjoys preforming weddings as well as funerals saying, "Both are joyous occasions although it often doesn't feel that way, they are about new beginnings, reconnecting with the greater divine part of self and when you understand that there is no death, only the evolution of potential and the greatness of the Creator, it becomes moments of grief for our own personal loss, that then can turn into joy for our beloved knowing that they are evolving to their next level of connection to the divine."
Ann 'lost' her beloved sister Lisa when she was just 24, and understands the pain of separation, yet because of her ability to tune in to energy she immediately began conversing with her. Lisa spoke to her right after her passing and said, "Go to the beach right now, I am going to be painting the skies with some of the great masters--I am so excited that they invited me, I can't wait!" Still filled with a pain Ann had never experienced before, she went to the beach near her home in Hawaii. "I had never seen anything like the sky that night or since, it was like huge brushes were used to stroke paint across the sky in the most amazing colors--even photographer were rushing about--it was truly unique." Lisa's joy and stories of 'reconnecting to the divine awareness ceased Ann questions about 'death' forever, and 20 years later still finds great joy in the adventures of her sister whenever she tunes into her.

Ann still keeps her hand in her interior, exterior, landscape design business, although she limits herself to only 2 jobs she feels inspired to do per year, "I love creation, taking a concept, a vision, a dream, and turning it into reality. I love texture, symmetry, continuity, color, water, light, sacred objects, and the careful integration of all these elements. A house must become a home, a sanctuary, a retreat from the world yet also a space where those you most cherish feel welcome, open and comfortable. Although I still love "old world" I am finding real joy in designing modern, light spaces, with water features and ancient objects. The furniture must be really comfortable--I do not care for furniture that looks like, either you can't sit in it, or your don't want to."
