January Newsletter 2018
This year is starting off for me in an unfamiliar, sort of scattered way. I’d like to be really honest with all of you, I want to be as authentic as I can be this year. We are all moving through this life trying to discover who we really are, what is true, how to […]
My Little Holiday Message
I wish this holiday that you find ways to make it easier on yourself. Remember, your time is the most precious gift of all. Most presents will eventually be tomorrow’s trash, but not your presence.
When There is a Bad Feeling….
To transcend a bad feeling don’t hold it back, push it down, wish it away, or deny it. Open yourself to fully feel it with all of its pointed daggers and crushing weight. As this emotion is acknowledged by you, wholly felt, accepted, embraced, only then may it begin finding its way through you […]
It’s a Women’s World to be Had
Another report out today, this time from the World Economic Forum’s findings and projections revealing the gender gap is worsening.

Most of us want the same thing. We want a world where everyone is fulfilled, healthy, successful, and at peace. Sometimes we think to […]
Where are our Leaders?
There is a leading edge of evolution functioning within humanity. This leading edge is a minority of the population, yet large enough to have an impact by showing the way, being an example of where we can go, how we can be, and what we can accomplish. According to Ken Wilbur, author and integral […]
What is Ayurveda?
Ayurveda is a very deep topic, a vast, ancient, body of knowledge divined long before any other known health system. But it’s more than a health system. I’ve been studying this subject a bit here and there for several years, and lately I’ve gotten more serious about it. Perhaps because I’m aging and my health […]
TWO TREES
Two trees, strong and firmly planted, could only travel through the experience of their roots and leaves For a few short moments the leaves of the two trees, anchored far apart, lifted in the wind and were carried side by side till falling to the earth As seasons passed the leaves of the two trees […]
