The soul’s journey is one of a peaceful existence. We listen to and allow the many ways in which the soul speaks quietly, purposefully to us and we are gently moved in the ways of spirit. What does your heart say that honours your spirit best? This is how you best guide your next actions [...]
This month’s inner reflection is on abundance. Curiously interesting to the notion of abundance is the idea of gratitude. Manifesting abundance includes daily practices of expressing thanks and feeling gratitude for all that is good in life, and for all that you already have. The beauty of abundance is everywhere. Begin to see the abundance that exists all around you; some obvious examples include water, food, sunlight, and oxygen. [...]
Earth Hour is a worldwide event that is organized by the World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF)* and is held on the last Saturday of March annually, encouraging households and businesses to turn off their non-essential lights for one hour to raise awareness about the need to take action on climate change. BUT IT’S [...]
Sometimes I catch myself off balance. I may, for some reason be standing on one foot in a moment as I do something …and I feel my balance going. I may reach for something and notice a gentle wobble in my footing and realize that my balance in that moment is indeed missing. We can [...]
Each month I encourage a different ‘inner’ focus for contemplation and study. During October, I encourage you to examine your current state of ‘self-acceptance’. The degree to which you are self-accepting is driven by your inner work. Self-acceptance is something you can wholly experience in your adult life – with conscious attention and effort to your inner thoughts and beliefs, and by [...]
Perhaps still one of the oldest questions that we debate on is the notion of what is GOD? I continue to hear people refer to god as a person (“he”), or an omnipotent powerful being in which they call and rely on for help. In doing so, they can leave too much of their life’s plan [...]
Perhaps one of the most undervalued privileges of the human experience is self-knowledge. Beyond describing what it is that we do for a living, our preference of music genre, or our favorite ice-cream flavor, how well do we really know our self? Much of our adolescence is spent contemplating who we would like to be (or [...]
At the beginning of each new month, I offer an idea: an intention to consider….to provide a focus or directive for that particular month. Below are a few thoughts to contemplate for March – a month that inspires and reminds us of what is ahead…of what our focus may be; hope of new and different, and the gentle embrace of change [...]
Just about now, you might be desperately wishing Spring would arrive…or hoping that there is more ‘good’ winter to enjoy the outdoor activities that you have embraced this season. Which of these is your focus ? While much of the excitement and anticipation of January’s resolve and intentions may be fading, this is precisely the right [...]
How would you assess your first week of a brand new year in your life? Have you experienced everything exactly as you have imagined…or have there been challenges? Any time you set an intention you can be sure that you will receive Universal Guidance, help, and the occasional challenge to test how well you are doing (and to give [...]
It’s a novel way of embracing the ‘new’ in your life – letting go of what no longer serves you… Being willing to surrender and release is a powerful way to consider how you will celebrate this new year and (if you choose it) how you will live the entire month of January. Surrender and release [...]
What does the magic of Christmas feel like? Think about it for a moment and re-experience those feelings within you. Christmas inspires your heart in ways you don’t always experience. We associate Christmas with ideals of love, kindness, giving, joy, hope, and special moments that come from our ideas and ideals of what it means to share, love, and [...]
During December, as the people of the world celebrate their culture’s holidays, I am reminded of the beauty that we strive to create: candles lit on menorahs, wreaths to decorate our front doors, lights that create amazing brightness, ornaments and objects shimmering, sparkling, bright colors that are seen everywhere, and delicious foods that we indulge in and enjoy. What are you celebrating? [...]
If you remember back to a recent post this month… I talk about the idea of B A L A N C E. Here is an element of how to create true balance in your life…now and always: Do you wonder if it is when you reach out toward others that you somehow feel supported, [...]
December is a beautiful month for many reasons. One of which is to embrace the notion of BALANCE. You see, while the focus for some may be on shopping, overindulging, lack of self-care….the real beauty of December is in the balance. This year, why not embrace the magic and beauty of this month…and of [...]
