Frequently Asked Questions

Tubes of Light Meditation

I suggest starting with the Tubes of Light meditation. Sometimes, before we can be open to something new, we need to first open our minds and shift our awareness beyond our current paradigm. The Tubes of Light meditation will help you do that.
Whenever I teach, I always start each day with this meditation. It helps people access what we call the ‘higher mind’ as opposed to the ‘lower mind’. When we try to learn new ideas or expand our experience from the lower mind, we become blocked or limited in our thinking. The job of the lower mind is to keep us stuck believing the world operates in a certain way. It fills us with doubts and fears that stop us from exploring the world around us and seeing it in a new way.
When I teach the Tubes of Light meditation, I sometimes use the example of climbing to the top of a hill or tall building and gaining a new perspective. You will actually start ‘seeing’ and responding to things differently. More importantly, you will have raised yourself beyond the fears, doubts, and limitations of your lower mind. There is a reason the lower mind is referred to as the ‘concrete’ mind!
I suggest trying it for a week and seeing how it changes your life. When you are ready for something more I suggest the Inner Diamond Essentials and Basic programs. The Inner Diamond program is a wonderful way to learn about your own energy field and the quantum energies that are available to us in the universe.
Although it is helpful to set a time to do the meditation at the same time every day, it is not necessary for it to work.
It is helpful, however, to do the meditation once in a 24-hour time period. The color frequencies that you call into your energy field during the meditation continue to work for 24 hours. After 24 hours, it is necessary to bring them in again for them to continue to do what they are meant to do.
It is also important to do the meditation while sitting up as the spine needs to be straight. You can do the meditation for a second time right before sleep but only if you have already done it while sitting up earlier in the day.
Many people who have trouble falling asleep at night have told us that doing the meditation when going to bed helps them go to sleep faster. In fact, most never finish the meditation.
When a child reaches the age of 14, their personality is fully connected to their soul and it becomes necessary to ask the personality for permission before entering their energy field.
The Tubes of Light meditation will change their personality and because of this, it is important to ask their permission before doing it for them.
I was doing the Tubes of Light daily for my granddaughter and when she turned 14, I told her I had been energetically protecting her and asked her permission to continue. She said yes and I have continued doing the meditation for her daily.
I highly recommend doing the Tubes of Light for your grandchildren, nieces and nephews, and all children in your family under the age of 14.
There are other ways you can support your adult children energetically and you can learn about this in the Conscious Guide for Mothers Advanced Audio Program by Annette Rugolo or the Inner Diamond Meditation program by Marie Diamond.
This is a very common question and one I like to begin answering by letting people know that I had one of the busiest minds on the planet before I started the Tubes of Light Meditation. I would lie in bed at night for hours sometimes trying to quiet my mind enough for me to go to sleep. I understand busy minds!
So in short, yes ... the meditation works with or without a quiet mind. During the meditation, you will be calling into your energy field quantum frequencies that will protect your energy field, connect you with support and clear limitations. Once you call in these light frequencies around you, they continue to work in your energy field for the next 24 hours.
They will be there simply with your intention and the thought to have them there (thoughts move energy) and it works even if your mind continues to be active. Listening to the audio program helps because your intention to have the meditation work for you begins the moment you decide to listen to the meditation. The more you listen to the meditation, the quieter your mind becomes.

Dowsing

Yes. Since learning how to dowse and with Marie Diamond’s tools, I have developed the ability to connect with the energy of homes and properties anywhere in the world. I live in the United States but have dowsed homes and properties in Scotland, England, Hawaii, Canada, France, and Australia with great results.
Working with a diagram of your home and/or property, I am able to tune into and discern what kinds of energies exist in your home. I also work with people over skype or phone to help them understand the energy that is occurring in their environment.
Your home has a certain vibration and something in you attracted it. This is what is known as the Environmental Law of Attraction. We tend to continue attracting the same vibrational field as we move to different places unless we do something to change that vibration.
One very simple way to change your Environmental Law of Attraction is to have your current home dowsed. Through the process of dowsing, you will raise the vibration in your current home, which means you will be attracted to a higher vibrational home when you move. When you walk into your new home, the energy will match your new vibration and you will feel like you have come home.
Many of my clients, after feeling the difference dowsing made in their first home, will call me to dowse a new home. What I notice is that the 2nd house they move into always has a higher vibration than their first home. Their law of attraction has changed and they are now attracted to places with more light and clearer energy.
Whenever you move, it is so important to be aware of the changes that happen to your family after you settle in. We tend to blame things on the stress of the move or other factors when in most cases it is the energy of the new home that is affecting the family.
The quickest way to find out if the home IS causing the problems is to schedule an energy check-in. During this 15-minute check-in, I can quickly ascertain the energy level of your home and see if there are negative vortexes or other energies that are creating your experiences in the home. You will then be given some options of what you can do to transform the situation.
Depending on the age of your daughter, I would say it is very unlikely that it is a figment of her imagination. Most children who see spirits are really seeing them.
Just as there are people who can see auras and colors around people, there are those who can see spirits. Their spiritual sight is opened and they can see what most people cannot. I call this a gift ... although, for some, it might not feel like one.
I have met many people over the years of teaching the dowsing classes that have told me that they used to see spirits as a child but they either became frightened or no one around them believed them so they closed off their ability. These same people are now trying to regain their gift to see.
The first thing to do when your child starts talking about seeing spirits is to let them know that you believe them. This will help them stay connected with their gift.
The second thing to do is to overcome your own fears and engage them in conversation. Questions like ... ‘Where did you see the spirit?’ ‘What did the spirit look like?’ ‘Was there more than one?’ Do not go into fear or panic as this will be conveyed to the child. If you cannot engage them without fear, find someone who can.
The next thing to do is find someone who can help release the spirit or spirits from your home or at least help you understand why they are there.
There is a lot of information regarding spirits and many reasons why spirits are around us.

Soul Sessions

When I do a session, I connect in with the soul, or higher self, of the person I’m working with. During the session, the higher self gives me information and insights about what is needed to help them continue to transform whatever situation they are working with.
It is very important to do what comes through in a session as this information is specific to this child. When the parent follows through with the tools that are given, the transformation happens.
Sometimes, the child may need more than one session and if that is the case, the parent is informed of this at the end of the session.
Another important step to take is doing what is necessary for your own transformation. Most of the children I work with are helping their parents become more conscious. What steps do you need to take to help yourself, your child, and your family? When the parents start opening up and learning new tools, the transformation for the child happens even faster.
I generally do not work with children in person simply because I do not need to. When I work with a child, I connect with them no matter where they live in the world. I connect with them at a soul level, outside of their personalities, which gives me clear information and insights into what they need help with.
When I first started doing energy work with children, I did have a physical office space and the sessions were done in person. The children who came in for these sessions taught me a lot which helped me realize just how connected and aware our children are.
In order to expand my reach and connect with more children around the world, I have let go of my physical office space and work 100% in the ethers.
The changes that can occur after a transformation session are as varied as the people I work with but there is always something that changes for the good. There is usually a greater sense of calmness, perhaps better sleep, and a brighter outlook on life. There are times when the personality actually changes to the point that people around see the change more than the person who received the session.
One child I worked with was a dolphin child who did not act like a dolphin child. Dolphin children are generally playful and love being in the water. This child was more ornery than playful and hated the water. Within a few days after the session where she cleared a traumatic lifetime, she started swimming at the local pool and continued swimming every day for the entire summer. Her personality changed and she was more playful and less ornery to the point that everyone noticed.
The change that happens is totally dependent on the energy that clears during a session whether it is a karmic piece that a soul is ready to clear, emotional and mental patterns that are addressed, or the release of energy forms from their energy field.
Information from the sessions is shared after each session and tools are given to continue to support the person in their transformation process.

Classes

The three programs or methods that Marie Diamond has created are designed to create both inner and outer transformation.
Diamond Feng Shui and Diamond Dowsing help people transform their environments. Diamond Dowsing uplifts the energy of the home by clearing negative vibrations and Diamond Feng Shui creates a flow of energy within the environment. The Inner Diamond will help you uplift your own vibration through meditation and the activations of quantum frequencies which help you to transform and create a direct connection with your higher self.
I personally recommend starting with the Inner Diamond Program as you will create a strong connection with the universe through this program. With a strong connection come a heightened intuition and a greater awareness of your environment. If you have already done a lot of work in personal growth, self-development, and spiritual growth, then I would recommend starting with the dowsing. I have seen many people stuck in their personal and spiritual growth because of their homes. Once their homes are dowsed and negative vibrations cleared, the expansion of awareness can continue to happen.
For those who would like a taste of all 3, I recommend the Inner Diamond, Dowsing, and Feng Shui Essentials program. This package will give you some great introductory information and you will be able to decide for yourself which program would be best for you.
Yes, I teach both in-person seminars and phone teleseminars. For a listing of my in-person seminar schedule visit the Events page.
If you would be interested in bringing an in-person seminar to your city, please contact me at annette@annetterugolo.com. If you live in the United States or Canada, I require 15 or more attendees in the class. If you live outside of the United States, the number of attendees is dependent on where you live.
The program that I feel would help large groups of children is the dowsing program. There are people taking this technique into their classrooms and schools with great results.
A substitute teacher in Colorado dowsed every classroom in which she taught. One year, she was a substitute teacher for 3 months while the regular teacher was out on maternity leave. In the 3 months, the change in the children’s behavior and their grades was so impressive that other teachers and school faculty started asking what she was doing to create such significant results. When she shared how she dowsed the room, some teachers invited her in to dowse theirs and some couldn’t accept that dowsing could have that kind of impact. A few people have taken all 3 of the Marie Diamond Methods and have applied them in their classrooms with amazing results.
If you are a teacher, daycare provider, or parent who can introduce these methods into schools or daycare centers and need more information on how to do it please contact me. I am passionate about providing healthy environments for our teachers and students!

Energy Rings

All of the energy rings produce a quantum field of light. The only difference is the amount of area each ring will affect. Along with the light produced by the ring itself, each ring also creates an aura field around it. If you place a large ring under your chair, for instance, you will feel the energy created by the ring up to 18-24 inches beyond the ring.
Each ring produces its own aura field and the larger the ring, the larger the aura field it creates.
Think about what you will be using the ring for and decide from the list above which size ring would most suit your needs. If you are uncertain about the effect an energy ring might have on you, start with a small or medium ring and get used to the energy of that size first before moving onto the large ring.
Yes, the energy rings can be covered and will still be effective. You can decorate them and hang them on a wall or a door. You can also cover them with plants, tables or rugs.
Yes. Although each person might have a different response or experience with a ring, the ring simply brings in light no matter who uses it and what it gets used for.
The small brass sleeves are there to help stabilize the energy of the ring.
Yes, especially with people with negative or heavy energies. The energy ring will help them but will not pick up any of their energy as the energy ring will help transform anything that is ready to be transformed.
No, as the ring does all of the clearing without picking up any of the negative energy it is clearing. However, if you feel you would like to clear your ring, you can place it in the sun for a few hours.

In each of Marie Diamond’s systems, she teaches how to connect with the Quantum Point, located an arms-length above the head. At that point, we can create an initial connection with the Quantum Field.
The Inner Diamond program helps people connect more fully with this field and they are activated with the 24 Frequencies of Light which are available to us in the Quantum Field.
Both the size of the ring (based on cubits) and the copper material help hold the activations of the 24 Light Frequencies. Marie and only a few of her more advanced students have the ability to activate the rings with these light frequencies.
As someone uses the ring, they are surrounded by the 24 Light Frequencies and are easily able to connect with the Quantum Field of light.
To access the Quantum Field, you can also listen to this guided meditation by Annette: https://we.tl/t-6zpXIDR1B3
Yes, it is ok if the rings become misshapen. It does not change the impact of the ring. They are very easy to reshape, however.
The positive energy never decreases but anyone using the rings on a regular basis may begin to feel like it’s decreasing. This is because the user’s vibration will begin to match the vibration of the ring and it will not feel the same as it did in the beginning. We have created the Ascension Ring and Cosmic Ring to help people continue to elevate their vibration to higher and higher levels.
The Energy Rings have been treated with a protective coating that does slow down the process but over time, the copper will oxidize simply because it is 100% copper and copper does oxidize. It does not, however, lose its effectiveness.
When we use the Energy Ring for ‘sweeping’ the energy from corners, do we need to sweep rooms like bathrooms, kitchens, laundry and garage? In Feng Shui we don’t activate/cure those areas.
When we clear the energy of a home, it works on a different level than curing or activating a space. The energy can and will collect anywhere in the home so it is important to include these rooms when ‘sweeping’ any density that has built up in the home.
When we place food and supplements inside the ring, can we place oils like cod liver oil, olive oil and raw nuts. Can these oils spoil from being inside of the ring?
Nothing can spoil from being inside of the ring. The ring raises the vibration of everything placed inside of it and will actually transform any dense energy attached to it.
We suggest muscle testing whatever you place inside before you place it in the ring and then again afterward. I think you will find the energy is more positive each time.
If something needs to remain refrigerated while it’s being energized, place the food in the refrigerator during this process.
Because each energy ring creates an aura field around it, you will only need or two energy rings, depending on the size of the bed.
Yes, the energy rings are very safe and very beneficial for both her and the baby. The baby will already be connecting with a high vibrational field while he/she is growing.
No, the rings cannot be opened. The twisting of the wire and the circumference of each ring is what creates the positive energy field and holds the activations.

Karma

Many believe it’s like a boomerang. People think of karma as an action (or energy) that is returned to them after they do something similar to someone else in this lifetime or in a past lifetime. While this is partly true, there is so much more to it. Karma is anything that has created separation from others, the universe, and even from parts of ourselves. The karmic vibrations we carry within our energy fields can be like cumbersome baggage, creating a heaviness that keeps us from living the life our soul came here to live.
Each of us came into this lifetime with some karma. After we become aware of it, we soon realize how important it is to release it. As we release more and more of our karma, it becomes possible to move with greater ease through life. It becomes easier and easier to accomplish our soul purpose.
Karmic energy can include emotions such as grief, guilt and anger. This energy can be created in this lifetime or past lifetimes. If you have always felt a certain way in this lifetime, it could indicate that you brought some kind of karmic emotional energy with you. Some examples are: lingering sadness, feeling not good enough, persistent fears of any kind, or not feeling comfortable in your skin. You may also experience difficulties with some karmic relationships. Look for the patterns in your relationships and see what things never get resolved or see how difficult it can be to move beyond the blocks. Karmic relationships can exist in your family (parents, siblings, children, and extended family members). You can also have karmic relationships with romantic partners, friends and co-workers.
Karma is released by using compassionate practices that involve forgiving yourself and/or another person. Compassion helps us hold the vibration of love, and love powerfully heals us from karma. Releasing karma can be done on your own. However, there are times that you may need an outside source which can be someone who can help you see where the karma originated from and help you release it. Once the karma is released, you feel lighter and can move forward with greater ease.
There is a very simple way to begin releasing karma on your own: Do the “Tubes of Light” Meditation daily. The meditation uses color frequencies to help heal every level of your being. One of the color frequencies used is violet light. It is a powerful vibrational frequency that scrubs through all of your energy levels by releasing your karma.

Mothering

First of all, make sure she is sleeping in an energetically clear space. Even if you cannot have your entire home dowsed, you can create great energy for your child to sleep in by placing a large Quantum Energy Ring under their crib. You can also decorate it and hang it on the outside of their crib at the head or the feet.
Learn the Tubes of Light meditation and do this meditation for yourself and your baby every day. Your child will thrive knowing you are supporting it both on a physical level and a soul level.
Most moms give more than they receive. After months and years of doing this, they are depleted and spent.
The first thing that is helpful is to take a look and see where your energy is going. Are you chauffeuring children all night after work? Is it going toward your job? Where are you not setting boundaries for yourself? Who is running your life and why are you letting them?
Start asking the question: ‘What do I need to see about my situation and why have I attracted it?’ When we ask questions we open up to receiving the answer.
The next step is to find 15 minutes a day and start doing the Tubes of Light meditation. By doing the meditation, you are telling the universe and yourself that taking care of yourself is important ... that you are important.
The meditation begins connecting you to a more expansive field of possibilities and solutions for your life and will begin uplifting you out of the pattern of imbalance that has been created.
On a physical level, make sure to drink plenty of purified water throughout the day. I have talked to too many moms who run on caffeine and sugar to get through the exhaustion. This might be a short-term fix but it is a long-term train wreck. Purified water is more important than we think to keep our engines running smoothly.

Consciousness

When people refer to people as ‘asleep’, it means they are not yet in connection with the light of their soul or higher self. They are still living in a world totally controlled by their personality and their 5 physical senses. They are moving toward their awakened state but they are not yet awake. A good analogy of someone who is still ‘asleep’ would be someone living in a very small room and not yet realizing the room is within a mansion. There is a door in this small room that will lead him to other rooms in the mansion but they either are in too much fear to go through the door or they haven’t even noticed it yet.
‘Awakened’ means that a person is connected to the light of their soul or to an awakened state of consciousness. They have transcended something within themselves to reach a level of awareness that helps them see the world around them in a different way. Once a person steps on that path, they move to higher and higher states of awareness and they are guided more by their soul than by their personality or ego. They begin living their life purpose.
The example I use to explain this is the movie ‘Scrooge’. It is a great story that demonstrates someone in the process of waking up. Through the help of some nighttime visitors, Scrooge gains a different perspective on his life and the people around him. He becomes aware of how his actions are affecting him and others and he makes the decision to live life differently. He becomes an ‘awakened’ man.
Most people don’t have that kind of dramatic change but I have witnessed people ‘wake up’ due to an illness, the loss of a job or relationship, or some kind of trauma in their life. Something happens in their life that pushes them out of their comfort zone and forces them to start asking questions and searching for answers.
Some of the more common questions that come at this point in time are ‘Is there more to life than this?’, ‘What do I need to see’, and ‘Where do I go from here?’. Something is stirred deep within us as we demand answers for what is happening to us and we open the door that takes us on a journey into the rest of the mansion.
