A Return to Innocence
I’ve made a career out of being hard on myself. I’ve been my own worst enemy and abuser, experiencing cycles that delve into darkness, shutting down and withdrawing – closing off to the world and becoming unavailable. However, I do have the ability to carry on as if nothing’s wrong and fit in – when…

A Divine Demonstration
I recently spent a week on Iona island in Scotland where I found myself living and witnessing a very powerful Divine demonstration. The island’s guardian is Columba, a very special being. On the first evening of my arrival, a friend of mine who I travelled with and had been to the island many times before,…

Duck and Cover
Who are you relying on to inform you of the truth? Is it your neighbor? The news media? Work colleagues? Social media? The government? Your friends and family? Experts? These groups of people may know or report on a small percentage of the actual truth – and who knows where they obtained their information from…

An Opportunity to Heal
Not sure how anyone can escape being effected by the events happening on the world stage at this time in history. I wouldn’t blame any one for feeling anger, frustration, fear or even trauma. The world can feel like a very unsafe place to be right now. Propaganda or not, it’s a very challenging time…

Life is Like That
Life is just like that – we take steps without really understanding who is the one walking and sometimes we need to look back to see truly how we arrived where we are standing. But for how much longer can we get away with living this way? I dare say time is running out on…

Turn a Blog into a Book
That’s exactly what I did. I’ve been writing blog posts for 3 years fairly consistently up until almost a year ago. I felt like I wrote all I could at the time so I took a break. My posts consist mainly of my own personal growth experiences. I love to share what I’ve learned with…

Florence Scovel Shinn Affirmations will Help You Release Burdens
If you haven’t heard of Florence Scovel Shinn, or her affirmations, well there’s no time like the present. She’s an avatar who was born in 1871 and her affirmations are timely and ‘work a treat’ when felt to ‘click in’ with the person stating them. The ‘click’ is an actual physical feeling as worry and…

Surrendering – it Works
I have a lot of experience with surrendering. Actually, to be more truthful, I have more experience not surrendering and using my willpower to bully on through, beyond where stopping, or at least slowing down would’ve been a better option. Using my willpower to push past where I’m meant to go is very tiring and…

Sacrificing for the Bottom Line
I’ve held many positions within organizations – manager, customer service front-line, running an owner’s million dollar business, project manager, contractor, and employee left to my own devices. Every once in a while this quote from Werner Erhard comes into my consciousness:

You are You, end of Story
It’s taken me forever to write another blog post simply because I really get that no two people are the same!! I knew this but it felt nebulous, or casual in a way. How can I write posts about growing spiritually if we are all different? The guidance I give is based on my personal…

Human Design: Utilizing Your Authority to Make Correct Decisions
Do you ever fret over making big decisions? Do your emotions get in the way trying to make everyone happy? Does your mind cloud things up with reasons, justifications and pros and cons? Or maybe you just blurt out an answer to end the torture! Decisions made this way usually are not in your best…

Getting Awake and Wise to Keep Your Individuality
I’ve been noticing a shift in the narrative that’s being aimed at individuality, it’s out there and it’s happening right under our noses. Individuality is becoming extinct. Watch and listen – people are being categorized all the time. The individual is a dying species.

Self Love: An Important Discovery
Every single judgment we have about ourselves – conscious or unconscious – diminishes any hope we have for achieving self-love. Every single slight or negative thought detracts from reaching our goal. We’re programmed and conditioned into believing we are never enough. Look around. So much pressure, stress and strain to be perfect – how can…

Lifting High Enough to Get the Big Picture
I’ve come to realize that the beliefs, deep emotions and feelings that I’ve experienced at certain times in my life, seem like they are very old – maybe even before this lifetime. I continue to experience emotional events in my life that mirror the pain and suffering from my past – until I break the…

20 Essentials That Will Make Your Busy Life Easier
Getting back to the essentials and basics is important. I find I need to stop all “input” occasionally because it only adds to any frustration I may be experiencing especially when things build up for too long. When I can’t get quiet to hear my own thoughts or feel my heart – it’s time to…

Are We Really In Touch? How to Enhance Communications
Listening is a skill most people believe they have – but in all probability – they don’t. I would even go so far as to say the “art of listening” is rare. Look back for a minute – how many times have you felt genuinely heard? Most likely it’s a very low number – unless…

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!
