  • Will I Remember?

    The days have been so crazy busy lately that this morning, when there was quiet, I almost didn’t know what to do with myself. I stood and listened. No lawn mowers. No air conditioners. No rushing. Peace – beautiful, delicious peace. I momentarily struggled to match the quiet around me. Then I remembered, took a […]

  • Words of Healing

    Some words simply make us happy when we see them, say them and hear them. Our response is immediate and automatic, even when we’re not happy or paying attention. Names can be the same. For some of us, Red Skelton evokes smiles, which lead to memories, which can lead to outright laughter. The same is […]

  • And Yet More Opportunities for Growth

    Summer is settling in here in South Carolina – at last. Not that I’m thrilled. I’m not a person who loves the heat. However, with the delicious long Spring, it does feel like Mother Nature is back on track and all is right with the world. It was lovely to sit on the screened in […]

Because nothing will manifest in your experience without the imagination process happening […]

You know, that feeling you get when you feel like you’ve done something wrong and you […]

  • Negative chatter in the brain?

    We all seem to have some – a little or a lot. A long time ago, I realized that the noise we hear is not from us. We are responsible for what is in our space. In this case, responsible for releasing and transmuting all the negative messages we hear. The explanation: We pick up […]

  • Happy Lammas & Imbolc!

    Good morning/evening ~ North of the equator, we are celebrating Lammas, the feast of the harvest and the birth of Gaia, Mother Earth. In the South, you are celebrating Imbolc, the festival of lights and the coming of spring. Together, we are celebrating the cycle of life, the planting and the harvesting. This day is […]
