Creating Our Reality

Because all experience is perfect and pure, no choice can ever be “better” than another, and judgment does not exist. All perception of lack, imbalance, and dis-ease is illusion. The TRUTH is that we are eternally supported. We hold the power of all infinite potential within, and we never compromise our security in order to…

“The” World vs. “Our” World

There’s a difference. We often allow ourSelves to become confined, defined, and shaped by the world that appears so constant and inflexible in our lives. But, that impersonal world of infinite potential can only affect our lives when we give it power and validation. It’s true. Until we choose to make that world our own,…

Multi-Faceted Selves

Imagine yourSelf as a brilliant multi-faceted prism. Imagine that each unique point upon this prism, grants You a varying viewpoint of BEing and expressing yourSelf authentically. No single facet, within the whole, represents greater value, purpose, or truth. Each facet serves as a unique lens to honor particular points of your true essence. They all…

A Christmas Morning Prayer

Let the veils lift, that this may become Heaven on Earth. Let there be a FREE-ing of our minds, that we focus not upon the discord and disharmony, but upon the awe-inspiring wonder and divine grace that eternally is. It can be found everywhere. In the hope that we embrace, in the love that we share,…

Giving Voice to Anger

What a complicated emotion Anger is. It’s at the core of every passive-aggressive communication, and so many limiting traits, patterns, and beliefs. If we don’t find a way to give it voice and express itself in a healthy way, it will always find a way to control our thoughts and behaviors. Until we face it…

Hand in Hand with Osiris

It’s one of those days. One of those days that feels heavy, overwhelming and daunting before it ever begins. It’s still dark as can be outside and I’ve already washed yesterday’s dishes (that I just couldn’t face last night), done laundry, sent off a few emails, and cooked my family a healthy breakfast (although I…

Designing the Soul Challenges

My heart was pure and filled with integrity, as I sought to help a challenged soul free themselves from the fires of conflict and confusion. In spirit, I set a sacred circle of Light to support the clearing that would take place. I held clear intentions to reach the SOUL behind the mask of trauma,…

Awakening our Natural Desires

My mind was whirling round and round, I noticed. Not to the point of being uncomfortable or stressful, this time. But clearly, distracting my focus from being clear and receptive, open and carefree. At some level, I was trying to control the experience of living organically. In fact, now that I notice, I wonder how…

The Feelings Are Real

We’ve been taught to make all of our raw and authentic feelings appears as gentle, kind, and pretty upon the surface. Even when no one is around to see them, we often deny them, push them to the side, or even blame them on another. As a society, we are not comfortable with feelings. But feelings…

“Save Me” Not

In fair warning, I’m a bit fired-up this evening. Before heading to sleep, I prayed for clarity and truth, to move me through this moment of insecurity and pain. I am now awake, after one hour of deep sleep, with an intense wave of ANGER filling my soul. I am a gentle soul. Anger is…

I Have A Brother!!

It’s not easy to step away emotionally. But eventually, when only dense pain and chaos accompany a particular soul, it becomes vital to DETACH from the one that you’ve always loved. We first do so, as an effort to survive the insanity and protect the beauty that is left in our life. But slowly, we…

Transition and Transformation

Every breath guides us forward into a “new” moment and experience. Every step leads the way forward into “new” understanding, awareness, and possibility. It’s the natural order of all things. To spiral forward into evolutionary expansion…effortlessly. It’s how we move through all of the seasons and stages of our life. Subtly shifting free from all…
