Thank you Angels for this beautiful, beautiful journey!!! Hi, my name is Maureen Bandas, thank you for taking the time out of your busy schedule to check out my page. I am so grateful to have been awaken, I am loving life!!! I am a Cree Metis and owner of Angel Spiritual Connections Inc. located near Fort Qu’Appelle, Saskatchewan, in Treaty 4 territory. The corporation is a wellness busin
ess offering healing services, empowerment certified classes, wellness expos, and healing women’s retreats since 2006. Like many of us, I grew up with not embracing my gifts and it took a huge awakening to finally surrender my life to Creator, Divine Source, Great Spirit, God, Universe or whatever you may call the higher power. I know when you come to a place of complete surrender, life starts to change for you. I have been experiencing so many shifts, it is unreal. I sometimes have to pinch myself to make sure I am still in the physical plane. My journey with the Angels and my Spiritual team has been such a joy that I cannot go back to who I use to be. It took me many years to finally come out of the spiritual closet. I am an accountant by trade and do have my undergraduate degree in business. My awakening all began one morning in March 2006 when I was involved in a roll over on a country road. I was going to Regina, Saskatchewan to visit my mother. It was a beautiful day in the valley. I set my cruise control on and drove up and down the valley hills. Once I got up top to this particular hill, the road was like a sheet of ice. I seen the glare, I started to slip slide on the road. I immediately took the cruise control off however somehow in the panic mode, I turned it back on. I started to skid all over the road, I almost had it under control, however I knew it was time to let the wheel go. I ended up going into the ditch and became airborne, flipping in the air. I let go of the steering wheel and had an overwhelming feeling of emotions where I became very angry at God, I did not want to die in a ditch, I truly believed that I was a goner. I still remember, the moment I totally surrended to God, I started to feel this amazing feeling come over me. I could feel a warm beam of light enter into my body, my whole entire being was being filled up with this amazing energy from God. I instantly felt at peace and wanted to go with the light, it felt so right to do so however, something stopped me in my tracks and I intuitively knew it was not my time to go HOME!!! I truly believe that my Guardian Angel saved me that day!! As I safely landed on all four wheels of my tires, I was in total shock as I looked around in disbelief that I was still alive. I got out of the mangled up vehicle and started walking down the country road. I was in shock!!! All I wanted to do was go home to my lake house. I was in shock for most of the day, still in disbelief that I was still alive. It suddenly occurred to me that this same feeling of a beautiful light entering my being happened in my 20’s. We were driving down a highway between Regina and Saskatoon when the rear end of the vehicle came out. I was driving. All I could see was sparks behind me in the rear view mirror. My husband looked over at me and said, “Stay calm dear”. The moment he said that, I felt an energy enter into my hands, I remember telling people that Jesus took over the steering wheel. I know now that in both instances my life was saved by Creator, as my Guardian Angel entered my physical body and saved me. I am so grateful for having another chance at life. I truly have surrendered my life to Creator. I know I am here to teach others on how to accept and understand their God given gifts. We are all here for a purpose, your purpose is to be YOU!!! I am so looking forward to helping others in remembering who they are, this journey is so amazing. I can honestly say, my near death experiences have actually saved my life. My life is full of abundance, love and joy, so blessed and grateful!!!! Most of us know that once we have been awaken, we are unable to go back to sleep. Prior to my awakening, I was invited several times to learn how to read Angel cards and attend spiritual events. I always declined gracefully. I was the biggest skeptic. I could always feel and sense energy however didn’t know what it all meant. My grandmothers were both intuitive and gifted ladies. I do recall getting reading where the lady said that I would finally open up my gifts. I had no idea what she was talking about. I was a huge skeptic and truly didn’t believe I had the ability to connect to Spirit. After the near death experience, I was invited again to join a group of ladies in Fort Qu’Appelle to learn how to connect to Spirit. It truly was a magical weekend, for the very first time in my life, I totally connected with others on a soul level, it was an incredible and uplifting experience. I started to watch spiritual videos, read books, attended training sessions and started to get the confidence to do Angel card readings. After a Spiritual retreat in Sedona, Arizona where I met many mentors and attended a variety of workshops on spiritual development, I surrendered my entire life to Creator and his beautiful Angels. To now start each day in a good way by saying, “thank you, thank you, thank you!!! How may I serve?” It truly helps in setting my intention to bring happiness, love and peace into my life. I have taken training to become a Certified hypnotherapist, Certified Advanced Thetahealer, Access Bars/Facelift/Body Processes Facilitator, Reiki Master. I have also written a children’s book “Izabella’s Angels” to help parents with gifted children to open up a discussion on how Guardian Angels are here on earth to love, protect and support us. The book’s illustrations were done by my niece, Alanda Durocher-John, a First Nation artist who is hearing impaired and soon to be a Social worker. I am so looking forward to meeting you!
