What does it mean to truly embody a virtue, rather than simply aspire to it? In this illuminating conversation, Magical Michelle welcomes Theta Healing instructor and author Felicia Crawford to discuss her transformative new book, "The Virtues of Divinity: Awaken the SuperSoul."

Felicia reveals how ten years after her first book "Uncommon Faith," she's distilled a decade of healing wisdom into 44 essential virtues that form the backbone of personal transformation. She explains her powerful four-step process—awareness, examination, transformation, and embodiment—that takes us from recognizing virtues to actually becoming them. As she eloquently puts it, "You don't try to be happy, you are happiness."

The conversation delves into how virtues operate as a "light language" carrying spiritual power, enabling healers to manifest faster and work more effectively with universal laws. Felicia's unique "Super Soul" concept draws a compelling parallel to superhero mythology, suggesting that embracing our virtues is like Superman removing his glasses—revealing our true, powerful nature that was always there.

Most remarkably, Felicia shares how anyone can begin working consciously with virtues through her accompanying card deck, offering daily inspiration and practice opportunities. Her practical wisdom about confidence, patience, and acceptance provides immediate value whether you're a seasoned healer or simply seeking personal growth. This discussion isn't just about spiritual concepts—it's a roadmap for embodying your highest potential and discovering the superhero within.

Magical Michelle Orwick:

Welcome to Living Magically. I'm your host, Magical Michelle. Living Magically I'm your host, Magical Michelle, and today I have with me one of my favorite Theta Healing instructor friends. We've known each other eight years or more. She does Theta Healing, Reiki, works with angels. She's this powerhouse of a woman, and just recently I found out that she had a book that was on its 10th anniversary and it's called Uncommon Faith Transform the Past and Be Free, and I just finished reading it and I can't say enough wonderful things about it. But, more importantly, the day this video is coming out, we are premiering a brand new book. So I'd like to introduce you to Felicia and have her tell you about the new book.

Felicia Crawford:

Hi guys. So I'm really happy to be here. Michelle and I we've worked together a long time. When I met Michelle, I was deepening my studies in Theta Healing and she's always been a great inspiration. I feel like where she is at now is where I want to go, so I love being in a place to work with you and be able to touch your audience as well. So yeah, uncommon Faith was 10 years ago. That was a culmination of that time, of where I was working with yoga and Reiki and Buddhism on my own path of healing, and that book explores the role of what I came to know as uncommon faith, and in that book it talks about how there is faith, which sometimes we get messages and we sort of know what we need to do, but uncommon faith is when you actually do the thing.

Magical Michelle Orwick:

And that's the thing, right, we all are are downloaded with these, these inspirations, but what do you do with them and how do you act on them?

Felicia Crawford:

and and I love that every chapter has an apply, the lesson section, which I thought was really cool- yeah, I love that because I was meditating and that's where the angels have always been very helpful and I work with them because I was like, how do I tie this all together? And that was what they had shown me was. You know, bringing in some in each chapter is like testimonials from people I was working with and then the lessons. So even on Spotify, you can go on Spotify and those meditations are on live there. So the ones at the end of each chapter, you could go and listen to me guide you through them too.

Magical Michelle Orwick:

So my favorite is getting in touch with the heart, and she asks you to breathe in faith, breathe in peace, breathe out faith, breathe in hope, breathe out faith, breathe in understanding, breathe out faith, breathe in courage, breathe in faith. And and it's just so potent right now because I've been working on creating a compassion circle and and so it's just so time appropriate right now, but I'd love to hear what I'm, what I'm getting into when I get my new book on yes, Is it the 11th? Yes, on the 11th. So is it the 11th?

Felicia Crawford:

Yes, on the 11th. So it's funny, as you were reading that, I realized how interconnected things are, because so much of this book and this book is called the Virtues of Divinity awakened the super soul. So this book is kind of 10 years later Now. My main work is in Theta Healing, and in Theta Healing what I always love about it is this and I teach this is if you're going to do a healing, do a complete healing, get to something, know where you start and complete that. That doesn't mean you completed everything about it, but make that time really valuable.

Felicia Crawford:

And so with Theta Healing, it's so much about lessons learned, virtues obtained, and so virtues in the last 10 years because that's been my main focus is working toward my master's in Theta Healing. So that's where I work with people, my students, and I see people just like moving through things so quickly, and that's the understanding of virtues. So the virtues go all the way back to Stoicism, and I've always loved Aristotle and he's one of the main quotes in this book is like we are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, therefore, is not an act but a habit, and that has always been one of my favorite quotes. So the virtues of divinity are where I was guided to write about 44 different virtues. So anything from I've got and I actually created a beautiful little card deck that goes with the book.

Felicia Crawford:

Oh wow, 44, 44 cards, so you can go right, there's a virtue on happiness and it says there's no way to happiness, happiness is the way. So then I was sat and I went into conscious writing and I channeled what they wanted me to write around happiness. I did some just like unhappiness. I really explored the science of a smile. So it talks a lot in there about how these sort of principles become not what you're trying to do but what you embody.

Felicia Crawford:

So in the beginning of the book it leads with four principles which are to awaken means first you got to like know that you want to look at happiness. You need to start exploring it, which leads you to naturally to the second, which is examination. So in that, start looking at and questioning things in your life and then goes into transformation, which means start doing something about it. And then the fourth principle is embodiment, which means now you don't try to be happy, you are happiness. And that would be in realm of healing, that you have healed to the point that you have the virtue of happiness. So when people have a virtue of happiness, they're just happy. I feel like you definitely have the virtue of happiness, michelle, right.

Magical Michelle Orwick:

I sure try. My mother and I used to have a saying and it wasn't until Theta Healing that I had to change this. But I used to say with my mom we both had this thing where we said patience is a virtue, it's just not our virtue. And when I recognize that in Theta Healing is that every time I said that I would reaffirm reasons to learn patience.

Felicia Crawford:

Right.

Magical Michelle Orwick:

You know. And so now I say you know, I call upon the power of the virtue of patience to embody it. So when I'm feeling impatient or something, I need to embody the virtue versus like push it away.

Felicia Crawford:

Yeah, and I love it, even when you're saying that you're pulling it into yourself. So I feel like for myself and what I've learned with all of the healing and this book really is the culmination of me as the, as the healer and the teacher what I've learned by working with people a lot of the virtues would come up naturally during the week when I had a client and they would end on this virtue with this great like awareness, and I'd be like, oh my God, that's one too, because patience in there and the tagline on that one is haste makes waste. So the faster you go right and you get hasty, you're actually wasting time. So the virtue really talks about the principles of like slowing down. How to do that, you know, and then how important that would be, and then how important that would be. And then the underlying current, which is the funny kind of like, came through. Is this how we are, all these like superheroes, right?

Felicia Crawford:

And I had the creator showed me that how to bring in. I said, what's a cute little undercurrent I could put in this? And I had a dream about like Superman and I jokingly call my husband Superman and it's a thing. So this whole premise of the super soul came through and the super soul is the best part of us, Like when we are in the embodiment of patience and the embodiment of happiness, and how it's just this natural way to be the best you, without even trying, without even trying. So there's this underlying component of really what does it mean when, like Superman, finally stops trying to hide behind his glasses and he goes? I am amazing, I am powerful, I am courageous.

Magical Michelle Orwick:

So it's accepting your defined gifts, right. And embodying your owning your virtue, and I love this. I'm'm gonna take off my glasses right now and embody that like and walk around like.

Felicia Crawford:

You know that if you had underneath here that your super soul, what would that look like, what would that feel like, and what virtues do you have that are your strongest? And you could consciously work on them too, if you didn't even know that courage was a virtue, and suddenly you go, that's a virtue that you can be, and then you start working with it. So even on the back of each of the cards it puts the four principles, so you can look at those and that's mirrored in the book, and then you could just play with it during the day. That way you could go back to the book and read a little bit, and so I really wrote it in this stream of consciousness so you could open it up almost in any place and read a line or two, and it would just really could. That could be enough.

Magical Michelle Orwick:

This is totally going in my bathroom. So anybody who knows me knows I have bathroom cards. We call it the toilet of epiphany and it started with a 65, 365 day meditation book from Diana Ross, which was meditations a book, and I would just open one up randomly before I got in the shower. And then I was like this is a little bulky for the bathroom, it'd be better to have cards. So I put Oracle cards in the bathroom and I was just recently thinking what new Oracle cards can I have before I get in the shower. So this is definitely going to be my new bathroom deck.

Felicia Crawford:

I'm excited for that because they are. It's meant to be like something that you could just take a morsel of, because I also realized we're all really busy and you know we have a lot going on and sometimes it's just really nice to have some sort of undercurrent of an intention, and that's the way I live my life and I feel like those are what the virtues are, that today Mine was about being confident, which means on the front of that is be yourself. Everybody else is taken and when you're really confident, it's like you just are you. You don't have to worry about it, because really nobody else could be Felicia sitting here talking to you. Self-authority.

Felicia Crawford:

Self-authority, self-actualization right, yeah, and as a healer, you know you guys that are theta healers. My students are taking these and then downloading themselves with the virtue. They've read something about it and now they're bringing it into their meditations. Because the virtues, when you study them deeply, they're a light language. They actually carry spiritual powers, which is why they would make you a super soul. It's why you can start working with the laws of the universe differently. It's why you can manifest quicker than anyone else. It's why you get grand ideas, right, michelle, the more virtues we have, the stronger healers and we're able to do things. That's really what I see Theta Healing about.

Magical Michelle Orwick:

When I was taking the first classes of Theta Healing, I was really deep in a medieval reenactment group called the SCA. I still am, but I'm just saying at that time the medieval times, chivalry is about embodying the virtues. So for me, I just went through this whole list of medieval virtues and created it and stuck it on my wall at the virtues. So for me, I just went through this whole list of medieval virtues and created it and stuck it on my wall. At the time I was just like, okay, this is the. Temperance is a virtue, chastity is a virtue.

Felicia Crawford:

And I and sometimes that's the next one creativity right.

Magical Michelle Orwick:

And. I didn't understand them right, like when I understood the law of humility was not about being humble, as acceptance right, the virtue of acceptance right. If you don't first accept something you cannot change, it is the law of humility, and so it was the virtue of acceptance that I needed to like, truly embody and learn. So I am so excited about this. So tell me, felicia, how can I and your viewers and the people that are watching this get a hold of this?

Felicia Crawford:

Okay, so with the cards and the book, if you want in on Amazon, because I'm self published, there's just the book, so you could go to Amazon and you can find it that way. But if you want in on amazon, because I'm self-published, there's just the book, so you could go to amazon and you could find it that way. But if you want me to sign it and you want the card deck, go to therapy for the soulorg and there I have a banner where you can click on and take you to ordering that and then I can send it to you wherever and I'll take.

Magical Michelle Orwick:

I want the signed one, so that's where you'd order through the website, where you can get the sign which I say order through the website because you want the signed one.

Felicia Crawford:

That's where you'd order through the website, where you can get the sign, which I say order through the website because you want the card deck, and then I can write a little magical download that comes through. That's what I've been guided, so I'll just do a download for you and then you'll get your book. So those are, like I said, on therapyforthesoulorg and I'm putting up. There'll be a banner right on the homepage that you can just click to. That'll take you to the product page and it's an easy process.

Felicia Crawford:

The books will be in my hand a little bit later in the week, so it'll take about a week to get them, which is no big deal. And you know that's where we can stay connected and you can also check out the other things. You can see the Theta Healing work, because Michelle and I are working together more and more with that as well, and just there's all kinds of stuff that will carry you to fun things. I even have my YouTube videos and I do angel messages and things on there too. So I don't know, I'm just having fun with it all.

Magical Michelle Orwick:

Isn't that the point? Isn't fun a virtue? The point isn't that isn't fun a virtue, like one of the things I remember Vianna saying on the very first time I was in Idaho Falls. She said fun is what we're here to have, fun is what we are here to embody and do. It's supposed to be fun. And she even says and it's going to be funner. And so I think that this new phase of your experience is going to be funner. That's my prediction and I'm very excited for this opportunity. And so if you had one last imparting gift of wisdom to bring to us today, to the audience today, what is the one thing you want to share today?

Felicia Crawford:

So I'll share what was on the confidence card and the challenge on there was to do one thing towards something that you wanted to have in your life. So today, confidently, press yourself to step outside your comfort zone. Do it with confidence, like even just be put on your most confident self. Do your hair, do your whatever, wear your right shirt and go out and step outside that comfort zone and start to move towards what you really want. Because, you know, even this book came as an idea on a napkin and there was nobody to tell me to do it every day. But I committed to getting up and writing every morning, staying in a place of openness and kept challenging myself to get help and, you know, not try to do it all myself. So if you really want something, you're going to have to press yourself a little bit, but do it with confidence and, like Michelle said, have fun with it Right Like this is.

Magical Michelle Orwick:

We're here to have joy and fun and play, and that is definitely Vianna's style, for sure, and she's such a good inspiration for us, and I'm grateful she brought us together because I don't think without Theta Healing we would have ever met, and so I'm very grateful to you and to this work and the embodiment of this work, which is what I think these books are about, and so I can't wait to get my hands on the new one, and I will make sure that we link that, so if you didn't know how it was spelled or anything, don't worry, we'll put it in the comment section, um, and so you can pick up your own copy if you're watching so I can't wait to put little downloads of light in them for everybody.

Felicia Crawford:

So and helping so I've got a. I've got a goal. I'm releasing it march 11th. By April 11th, my goal is to sell 1,111 copies. Let's help.

Magical Michelle Orwick:

Absolutely, I'm already halfway there.

Felicia Crawford:

I'm halfway there with pre-orders, so you guys just keep helping and we'll get it out there, because that's the angel blessing number.

Magical Michelle Orwick:

Well, I can see you are blessed by angels. 1111 is my number. I'm an 11 life path number and so every time I see 1111, my mother, when the digital clocks first came out, like when I was a little girl, she would say make a wish. And so, every day, twice a day, with no fail, I make a wish, and so my wish for you is that you make your goal with grace and ease and love and joy.

Felicia Crawford:

I receive that, thank you.

Magical Michelle Orwick:
