🌀 Collective Consciousness is Real—Here’s How It’s Impacting You

🌀 Collective Consciousness is Real—Here’s How It’s Impacting You

The Energy of You Volume XX Issue #12 Hi Reader, The month has been a whirlwind of activity, yet I don’t feel like I’ve gotten much done. A growing to-do list and seemingly fewer hours to do it in had me a little spinny. I could blame it on the recent eclipse, but there’s more to it than that. A few weeks ago, I shared thoughts on the energy of the collective consciousness (you can catch up here). If you’re not familiar with the term, think of it as the shared beliefs, emotions, energy, and…

The Future of Healing? Why Scientists Are Studying the Biofield

The Future of Healing? Why Scientists Are Studying the Biofield

I have been in the energy healing world for over four decades; a lot has changed(and a fair bit has not). I practice a distance healing called WebWork and have done a number of informal research studies with hundreds of participants, enough to know it’s effective. Yet, some still consider it woo-woo. I would venture that, in time, energy healing will become part of our health and…

Everyday Magic: Trusting What You Have

I looked around the living room, pry bar in hand. Piles of plaster, lathe, and paneling surrounded me, and I was covered in dust. We had just moved into our first home—a wreck of a place—but my husband had promised that renovations would start immediately. Three...

Abundance, Stability, and Self-Awareness: Root Chakra Basics

Abundance, Stability, and Self-Awareness: Root Chakra Basics

When life gets chaotic, leaning into your foundation helps. If it’s strong, it can help calm the chaos.

Chakra work is a core practice for me. Generally, it doesn’t take much time and can easily be woven into a daily routine.

The spotlight is on the root chakra this month. Checking in on and strengthening your energetic foundation is a worthwhile effort.

The Secret to Saying No (and Feeling Good About It): Healthy Boundaries

The Secret to Saying No (and Feeling Good About It): Healthy Boundaries

I started the year with a bug that had me on the couch for a few days and a lingering cough. Very unusual for me, I’m usually pretty healthy and get a bit cranky when I’m under the weather. I’m happy to say I’m feeling better and decidedly less cranky. At the start of a new year, many of us take a look at what we want to change or create. It’s a good time to check on boundaries and the ability to align with your values and desires. In my work with…

Mindset: The Blueprint Behind Your Actions and Experiences

Mindset: The Blueprint Behind Your Actions and Experiences

It’s been getting chilly here, prepping me for my trip to France/Germany/Austria/Hungary in a few weeks to visit the Christmas Markets. I had to buy a winter coat for the trip ❄️. With the days shorter and nights longer I find myself a little more reflective. I definitely lean more toward optimism- I usually believe the universe has my back (and it does mostly😎 ). I was working on some of my research and thought it was a good time to look at mindset. Your…

Stress Less: Practical Tools for a Calm Mind

Stress Less: Practical Tools for a Calm Mind

I’m someone who really values my peace. I work at it – meditation, breathwork, energy clearing, time in nature and I love me a good book. My peace has been shaky the last couple of weeks so much divisiveness and a steady stream of stress-inducing change making it challenging to stay centered and keep my peace.  When I started exploring holistic health, Jon Kabat Zinn was pioneering his…

Collective Consciousness: How Society’s Energy Shapes Our Fears

A couple of years ago, I went on a solo trip to the Cayman Islands. It was my first international trip post-pandemic, and I was looking forward to swimming, snorkeling, and walking the beach. As the trip approached, I found myself fretting over minor things, like...

Feeling a Little “Psychic” Lately? Here’s Why!

When the Veil is Thin: Tapping Into Your Inner Wisdom and Intuition While this time of year is mostly known for Halloween in the energy realms the end of October and beginning of November is the time of year when the veil between worlds is thinner. I feel like it’s a...

Feeling a Little “Psychic” Lately? Here’s Why!

Volume XIX Issue# 40 Hi Reader, Halloween is this week. My neighborhood is a fan favorite for trick-or-treating. We get hundreds of kids. It’s so much fun seeing all ages get dressed up and having fun. When we first moved here a neighbor warned me to have lots of candy. I expressed my delight (my previous neighborhood had zero trick-or-treaters) she chuckled and said “Oh you’ll get your fill here.” That first year I ran out of candy in an hour and had to shut off my porch light. Kids still…

The Power of 17 Minutes: Finding the Pockets of Peace for a Busy Mind

I’ve been meditating for more than three decades. I’m not a marathoner but rather a daily sprinter. Most days, I have butt in the chair for 17 minutes, an arbitrary number that evolved over time. As I recall, twenty minutes felt too long and fifteen too short 🤷. I...
