Children have a natural exuberance. Everything they do is filled with such joy and anticipation that they usually run to get places. We see them energetically wiggle when forced to sit still, and it’s not unusual for them to squeal with delight when something good happens. Without much of an inner filter in place, their…
The first time I did a meditation to learn more about my soul, I was shocked. Yes, I understood there was a “trinity” within me. My human was my thinking brain, which included my ego and all the judgements and programming from this lifetime that went with it. I also knew that my higher self…
There are times in our lives that are so painful and life altering that we actually label them in our mind as, “before ____________ happened” and “after _____________ happened.” The loss and grief is so intense, we intrinsically understand we will never be the same. Whether the death of a loved one, a tragic world…

Although this class explained…
Some goodbyes are fast and unexpected; our hearts literally feel like they have been cracked open from the pain. We have little time to prepare ourselves, or even consider how life in the future might look, because we simply did not see the winds of change blowing in the direction they decided to go. Yet…
The holidays can be a time for reflection, when we take the time to slow ourselves down, even for just a minute, before the rush begins. Consider for a moment, where we were last year at this time. What our worries centered around. What relationships were most prominent in our lives. The challenges that we…
I recently had a client reach out to me asking, “Am I going to start feeling joy and contentment in my life? With all the bad things that have been happening, I don’t know how much more of this anxiety I can take.” My heart went out to him because this is something everyone of…
I recall sitting in church as a child listening to the congregation praying “Hail Mary full of grace, the Lord is with thee…” and in my youthful mind, it conjured the image of Mary floating around Jerusalem like a ballerina. It wasn’t until many years later that I realized that “grace” and “graceful” meant two…
