Summertime Slow: The Power of Doing Less in Order to Revitalize Your Mind, Body, and Soul

Summertime Slow: The Power of Doing Less in Order to Revitalize Your Mind, Body, and Soul

Hi Reader,
One of my goals this year was to do less. I wanted to weave in more white space(basically unscheduled free time- blank spots in my day planner) so I could follow creativity and curiosity and discover myself more fully. It feels easier in the summer months with the longer days.
It’s been interesting and challenging. I am happier with more white space. I’m getting better at allowing for the white space and will keep working on it.
The hustle mentality that seems to drive our society…

From Scarcity to Abundance: Changing the Narrative of ‘Not Enough

From Scarcity to Abundance: Changing the Narrative of ‘Not Enough

Hi Reader, It’s been a busy week, and with that some time pressure. The feeling of “not enough” whether it be time, money, space, or connection often comes with a mental spiral that leads you deeper into the “not enough.” As we craft a story around our problem and continue to tell it, it wraps itself around how we experience what’s happening. The story matters. Words matter. The following are all descriptions of the same short video clip. Three very different perspectives. Jane saw a mean,…

Awakening the Inner Navigator: Discovering the Power of Inner Wisdom

Awakening the Inner Navigator: Discovering the Power of Inner Wisdom

Hi Reader,
I had some unexpected free time this weekend. While I was hoping to enjoy some sunshine and write for a bit, the June Gloom chased me inside. Which led me into the garage and some painting. It’s been a couple of months since I played with paint, and it felt great. It was a great reminder to slow down and listen. It brought to mind a time when I did not listen to my inner wisdom.
It was ten pm on a Thursday. I got a call from my boss, Ruth telling me I had to go to Boston and cover…

Tapping into the Energetic Web: Exploring the Language of Intuition

Hi Reader,
I’m doing some yardwork today, hoping to get the raised bed in my front yard planted. The fresh air and sunshine always help clear my head. ​​
So many of you had questions about how intuition was received it sparked this week’s newsletter. Intuition comes in a variety of ways. I refer to them as the “clairs”. It’s meaning originates from the French word for clear, paired with the way the information is received.
Here are the most common types.
Clear seeing – Clairvoyance – seeing…

Embracing Our Uniqueness: Breaking Free from Either/Or Mentality

Embracing Our Uniqueness: Breaking Free from Either/Or Mentality

Hi Reader,
I was talking with a friend and fellow healer this past week as I walked the beach. We got to talking about how many of the alternative health and New Age communities have an either/or mentality. As if there were one right way to do things…I don’t subscribe to that. We are all connected AND we are all unique which means there are many ways to arrive at the destination you desire.
I’ve been flirting with the New Age community for 30 years. I say flirting because I never fully…

Morning Magic: How a Simple Routine Can Transform Your Day

With the sun just peeking over the horizon, I poured my coffee and headed back upstairs to shower and start the day. Glancing at my meditation chair, I started the shower to warm up the water. Running a mental checklist through my head of what needed to get done,...

Whispers of the Soul: Nurturing Inner Wisdom and Intuition

Hi Reader,
My shoulders are sore today, I spent the day working outside yesterday. After all the rain we’ve been getting, my little yard was overgrown and in desperate need of weeding. I also added a table to my patio so I can work outside more comfortably as the weather gets warmer. Happy Mother’s day to all the mom’s out there. My daughter is taking me to see Riverdance tonight. As a dance lover, it’s right up my alley.
I often talk to clients about listening to their inner wisdom and…

Exploring the Intersection of Mind, Body, and Spirit: The Role of Energy Healing in Holistic Health.

Hello Reader,
I’ve been working on the live workshop I’ll be co-hosting with my friend and colleague Tawnya in the fall. It’s been exciting to create together and explore what we want to create. It’s also had me looking at what I teach and the integration of that into everyday life.
Woven throughout my work both individually and in groups are various mind-body or energy-healing tools. Energy healing is a broadly defined field within the complementary and alternative healthcare umbrella.It’s a…

Discovering the Surprising Role of Hope in the Healing Process

Discovering the Surprising Role of Hope in the Healing Process

Hi Reader,
I’m a little bewildered that it’s the end of April, I don’t know how that happened, time does seem to speed up each year. I presented my thesis and defended it last week, I am officially done with the Mind Body Masters program. My area of study was the placebo effect as a centralized healing response. There are some very interesting findings coming out of the research.
One that I have been very curious about is every study has had a spontaneous response, i.e. not something the…

Morning Magic: How a Simple Routine Can Transform Your Day

Hi Reader, With the sun just peeking over the horizon, I poured my coffee and headed back upstairs to shower and start the day. Glancing at my meditation chair, I started the shower to warm up the water. Running a mental checklist through my head of what needed to get done, adding in a few extra items I really wanted to get done, while I brushed my teeth, I stole another glance at my meditation chair in the next room. Shaking my head, too much to do, I thought as I got into the shower. It had…

The Hidden Impact of “But”: Transform Your Life by Rewriting Your Inner Dialogue

Hi Reader,
We had a delightful visitor to a tree adjacent to our AirBnb this week, I’m still in Costa Rica. A three toed sloth hung out in the tree for a few days it was such a treat to see him so close.
There is so much to see and do here making a choice can be challenging! I start a writing retreat tomorrow , which limits the choices and creates a whole new environment. I was reminded of the power of language and how it can have a big impact on how we experience life.​
It seems like an…

Living the Dash: Lessons from a Costa Rican Jungle Sojourn

Living the Dash: Lessons from a Costa Rican Jungle Sojourn

Hi Reader,
I’m writing this from the jungle in Costa Rica. I went for a short hike this morning, we came upon this deep pool below the waterfall.
We were hot, shared a look and a nod, and proceeded to climb in to cool off. We stayed in for an hour or so, talking and appreciating the beauty of the jungle.
I have a couple of projects brewing, a series of realignment bundles designed to reset your energy around a specific topic, a new customized realignment offering, and a live workshop for…
