About Lloyd Matthew Thompson
FROM GROWING UP IN a Protestant Christian household to exploring and experiencing many Ways including Buddhism, Shamanism, Paganism, New Age, Catholicism, and good old Life, LLOYD MATTHEW THOMPSON has clearly been shaped by each path in many ways. As the oldest of nine home-educated children, he became accustomed to a self-motivation and independence that drives him to this day, even when surrounded by opposing influences. Whether writing, painting, drawing, or teaching, Lloyd has committed to and strives to embody and exemplify the mantra he has found at the heart of all things: And the bottom line is Love.
Lloyd Matthew Thompson has written for various metaphysical and holistic blogs and magazines, both locally and globally. He is the author of the nonfiction books THE ENERGY OF GOD, LIGHTWORKER: A CALL TO AUTHENTICITY and ENERGYWORKER: A CALL TO EMPOWERMENT, as well as the fiction works THE HEALER: A NOVEL, ROOT, and AURA: A SHORT STORY.
Lloyd lives in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, with his wife, his seventeen-year-old triplets, his ten-year-old daughter, and his two cats named Akasha (the vampire queen) and Buffy (the vampire slayer). One can simply imagine how those two four-leggeds get along.

Blog postTrevor Hall
The Fruitful Darkness
For the second time in my life, Trevor Hall has given my heart and mind a voice in times of difficulty, times of processing, and times of major metamorphosing and shape-shifting. As I wrote in 2014 about his Chapter of the Forest album, his most recent album, The Fruitful Darkness, has now seeped into every crack of my soul and let enough Light in for my Eyes to see (again) I am not alone. Though it was released in 2017 and it’s n8 months ago Read more -
Blog postTODAY IS MY ninth Father’s Day on this go-around. If any of you try to ask me where those 108 (which also happens to be the exact number of beads on a mala prayer bead rosary, holy holy holy!) months have gone, I will not be able to offer an answer sufficient enough to cover all the bases. Time keeps on slippin’, slippin’, slippin’ into the future.

The Energy of God is a call to end the discrimination, end the hatred, end the separation; a call to be the mediators, be the healers, be the love.

Blog postCatch the Bird of Heaven,
Lock Him in a cage of gold.
Look again tomorrow
And He will be gone
Lock Him in religion,
Gold and frankincense and myrrh
Carry to His prison,
But He will be gone
All the things that man has made
Cannot hold Him anymore.
Still the Bird is flying as before.
Temple made of marble,
Beak and feather made of gold,
Bell and book and candle
Cannot hold Him anymore.

Blog postI THINK I AM figuring out that one of the root longings I feel ever-present deep inside is indeed for community…
I’ve always been—or thought of myself as—solitary, not needing others in order to be me or do what I do. This most likely came from the way I grew up, homeschooled and alone, even as the oldest of nine children. I would often be by myself in my bedroom reading or transcribing sections of what I’d read and loved into notebooks and journals.

Wise One: The Song of Manjushri
Sep 8, 2019
$0.99
This booklet is a new understanding of a sadhana for the wisdom buddha Manjushri, who is also known as Manjughosa in some regions. Manjushri is the Bodhisattva of wisdom, gentleness, mindfulness, and meditation, as well as being an inspiration to writing, music, and singing. The Sanskrit name Manjushri means “gentle friend.”
You will find first a more traditional rendering of the text, followed by the updated rendering, and finally an expanded commentary on the updated rendering.
A sadhana is a mantra or prayer focusing on certain qualities you wish to inhabit. You may also recite a sadhana as an opening of a channel or a portal, to simply usher the energy of the specific qualities listed into this world. Meditation on and reflection on a sadhana helps to add those qualities to your own character. Setting the intension for the sadhana to beam out into the world will dedicate it to benefit all things. Many people find great benefits in memorizing sadhanas they connect to, so they are able to recite and be encouraged by these qualities at any time and any place.

Energyworker: A Call to Empowerment
Apr 1, 2015
$2.99
WORKING WITH ENERGY IS NOT SOMETHING MAGICAL ANYONE HAS TO LEARN.
It is naturally ingrained in everyone already.
There is nothing that can be done without energy. Each and every one of us works with energy in a multitude of ways every minute of every day.
If everything and everyone is nothing but energy, the fact we can even detect where an object is located shows we can “read” energy. The fact we can then actually pick up the object and move it to another location shows we can work with energy.
Our physical bodies are giant antennas for energy. Each of our senses are picking up the feedback of energy and translating it to our brain and nervous system as scents, sights, tastes, sounds, textures, and feelings. In fact, without energy receptors, we would not be able to operate within this physical plane! We would never be able to find where someone has moved something or built a wall that may be in our way, until we smack into it.
Everyone and everything that has ever existed came from the same energy, yet never left this energy, and still has not left it. Energy may shift and change and move, but it can never be destroyed.
The simple fact that you exist in this form, in this moment, means you are already a natural-born Energyworker.
Covering all bases from being affected by energy to healing with energy, ENERGYWORKER: A CALL TO EMPOWERMENT is a guide the mindful and self-empowered will want to keep handy at all times.

YOU NEED NO FANCY MODALITIES, TITLES, OR CERTIFICATES TO BE AN ENERGY HEALER IN THIS PLACE AND TIME.
This place is hurting.
The winds of this planet are shifting and swirling, bringing Change with each passing moment. For so very many, this Change is extremely difficult to handle. Most people have a resistance to change, which causes tension that can easily spiral into energetic and physical dis-ease. From the global level down to the personal level, there is no one and no thing that is not affected by these changes taking place.
But there cannot not be these changes.
The changes must take place.
Without changing, there would be no... change! Growth and improvement would be eternally at a standstill, forever stagnant, forever wounded.
And what is healing, but changing?
As more and more of our friends and families enter this Change, healers help ease the adjustment as much as possible, and keep the energy flowing.
The intention of this guide is to simply share a possible springboard for you to find your own natural way of being a healer.
You need no fancy modalities, titles, or certificates to be an energy healer in this place and time.
You need only an open Heart, and an open mind.

The Energy of God
May 16, 2019
$4.99
There is a love that so desires others to be free from suffering that it’s willing to do whatever it takes for that freedom. This love is the mission of the Buddhist bodhisattvas, the actions of the Catholic saints, the selfless acts of countless heroes in myths, books, and movies who help or save the lives of others, often at the cost of their own life or comfort.
Our world around us pressures us to think and act in the same energy it does: discriminate, judge, hate, exclude, reject, fight for our own recognition no matter the cost, and fear anyone and anything different than ourselves.
But every demonstration of the energy of God we have shows that it is a love that loves no matter who, no matter what. It is a love that chooses to love the way the sun shines on both the good and bad without judgment, the way the rain falls on both the kind and unkind without condition.
It’s the sort of love that changes lives.
The energy of God is the free-flowing, unbound freedom to love with abandon. The energy of God is a living, moving, breathing awareness that we live, move, and breathe in. It cannot be fully captured by any set of religious rules or any other sort of regulations—it may find a partial voice and body in a religion or a concept, but it can never be completely embodied within a single box.
Love is a verb, as the old saying goes. Love requires action. Love requires a conduit, a channel.
Where are these channels to come from? How will these channels manifest in this place, in these days?
Are these channels not found in our own hands, in our own feet?
Revisiting the final week in the life of Yeshua—Jesus of Nazareth—THE ENERGY OF GOD is a fresh, modern look at what holy, enlightened love can look like here and now, and what that means for us in our own day and age.

Good Night, Nurse

The early emotions and poetry of a journey from one world to the next.

From GOOD NIGHT, NURSE:
This place is called Harmony
This place is called Rest
Regrounding, Rebalance
The cheat to the Test
Here Ashes are breathing
Here Ashes respect
The Fear and the Suff’ring
Here have no effect
Again All are one where
Again All are free
Behind or below or
Above, only Me.

LLOYD MATTHEW THOMPSON refers to the period of his life these
poems were born of as “The Flailing Years.” As he came out of what
he’d been raised with and all he’d ever known, he followed his Heart
through alleys and staircases, struggling to find his way and his Self.
From shifty religions and spiritual concepts to rocky relationships
and family drama, Lloyd sought his truth with every breath.
This collection of poems is neither complete, nor in chronological order.
Poetry that made the final cut were placed into a hat. The Universe
then picked the arrangement, and—as with all It touches—It not-so-
randomly ordered a perfect order.
