Moving From Fear into Action and Engagement
At one point a few years ago, people who fear public speaking were coming into my awareness. I can remember back when I had that same fear but was cured of it when the meeting-script binder was grabbed from my hands and literally tossed into the group by my trainer. The group loved it and…

Stay Healthy Longer by Listening to Your Body’s Wisdom
Our bodies want to help us stay healthy. They have a lot to say and are a wealth of information. We get busy, life is loud, and we miss the subtle tones of our body trying to get our attention. No matter, our bodies will eventually find a way to stop us and make us…

Thinking You Know Something may Prevent a Miracle
An interesting notion. I was reading a friend’s blog post and had the realization: Miracles don’t come from anything we “know.” Just the opposite in fact. You can’t plan a miracle, nor can you know how they will happen. Miracles come from the unknown, many times literally from nothing – that’s why they’re miracles!

A Fledgling’s Message
One of life’s Golden Rule’s I appreciate is: Don’t interfere with nature. It’s always served me and is completely common sense. Well, I found myself violating this rule when I came face to face with a fledgling, one I’d been watching for days, trying to hide under a small fern.

What is Your Soul Desiring to Express? A Message From Two Great Inspectors!
I love synchronicity. I watched an episode of Agatha Christie’s Poirot and an Inspector Morse within a couple of days of each other. Just so happens, the two episodes were similar – I unknowingly chose to watch the episodes where each inspector dies. I saw the last episode of Poirot and the last episode of…

Florence Scovel Shinn Affirmations: Turn Fear into Faith
In her book, The Power of the Spoken Word, Florence Scovel Shinn states: “Be Strong! Fear not: Fear is man’s only adversary.” She believes our word is our wand, filled with magic and power, and our word is the only weapon we can use to defeat our lions. “You face defeat whenever you are fearful!”…

Fragmentation – Finding and Healing Your Lost Pieces
I was listening to a friend of mine as she was sharing her story about being in a very traumatic car accident many years ago. She said it took a lot of physical therapy and hard work to fully recover her body. However, she recalled, the panic she felt being trapped in the car while…

Manifesting Growth Opportunities
I had a dream last night that I showed up to work without my uniform. It got me thinking. I believe we manifest situations and people in our lives for ultimate growth and learning, especially if these situations and people really get under our skin. When this happens in my life, I take it as…

Finding Your Humanity in Times of Stressful and Uncertain World Politics
When it comes to the topic of transformation, Werner Erhard is my go-to person. I recently watched a video on compassion with Werner and Dr. Jim Doty, one of the world’s leading neurosurgeons. I found it extremely beneficial in that I learned we, as humans, are hard-wired to care, it’s our default state and it’s…

Creating a Future of Possibility
Imagine what life would be like without judgment. As far as I can tell, judgment is pervasive and automatic: we do it without realizing. We judge ourselves and we judge others. We have opinions and we make comparisons. Our brain does this in split seconds and before we know it, our opinion or judgment is…

A Long-Awaited Change is Coming: Your Life may Start Shifting in a Powerful Way!
I am feeling an exciting, welcomed consciousness change in our midst that is having an apparent effect on people. I’ve been reading articles and blogs discussing significant changes taking place in people’s lives, starting with making big changes to their environment. Many people are moving and/or clearing out their possessions they’d held onto for years. …

Rekindling Creativity: Healing Stuck Feelings That Block Inspiration
I’ve heard people say they’ve received creative inspiration from various kinds of places. At the time, I couldn’t really speak to that because I believed I had limited personal experience with creativity. I’ve always believed and said, for better or worse, “I’m not a creative person.” I couldn’t conceive of what being creative meant so…

Facing Our Fear of the Dark
Darkness would have us believe it’s engaged in an all-out war with the light. Is it true? Is there actually a war going on between darkness and light? Darkness (our own fear) would have us believe it will prevail, that it’s stronger than our light. It uses our love against us and others by shutting…

Start Healing Life-Long Vicious Cycles and Triggers – Put an End to the Blame Game
Being triggered into a reaction causes you to behave in ways you wouldn’t dream of under normal circumstances, and once the dust settles, you most likely regret your actions and wonder why you couldn’t stop yourself – again. This occurs probably more often than you like. So, what can you do about it?

How to Increase Your Life Force and Vitality by Paying Attention to Your Words
Our words contribute to healthy living and are just as important to us as good nutrition and exercise. Our words are powerful and carry weight. If we’re not careful, continually being casual with our word and promises may lead to unconscious feelings of guilt, unworthiness, self-blame and depression. Sound severe? Over time, this negatively effects…

The Inner Child – Lessons in Control
I’m reminded of a time when my inner child was desperate to control me, and everything and everyone in my life in order to feel safe. Here’s the story as it unfolded:

The Journey to Self Love
Wouldn’t it be nice to live without self-judgment? It’s a bad habit. We automatically judge ourselves without realizing it. Have we been sold a line that we’re defective? Why isn’t self-acceptance the norm? How did we get to be so hard on ourselves?

Asking For What You Want
Do you ever notice, we always get what we ask for? More times than not though, things appear out of the blue and we scratch our heads wondering – Why did this happen? I didn’t ask for this nor do I need this now! It just proves to me that we don’t always realize or…

Speaking up for Yourself – Easier Said Than Done!
This can be a very stressful decision – Do I speak up or say nothing? I have struggled with finding my voice for many years. I have also been healing that which stops me from speaking up for myself. My tendency would be to “stuff it” down and say nothing out of fear of reprisal.…

The Body Temple – Leaving is no Longer an Option
I just returned from a 21 day trip through Peru and Bolivia. When I was deciding whether or not to book the trip, I kept thinking: I don’t want to go to Peru or Bolivia, but I kept coming back to the idea that it might be worth it since a good friend and spiritual leader…
