Looking Outside for the In

This first step to solving any issue is to recognize that there is an issue.  The second step is being willing to take action to resolve it.  Many times the hitch comes in figuring out what actions or series of actions are going to actually help resolve the problem. A few things that can mess…

The Financial Crisis

We are all products of our current culture that has taught us to think certain ways about money.  The worst part is that it has taught us that money is some island separate from life and has nothing to do with how we live or interact with each other.  And what we need to realize…

Family Healing

Families have a tendency to hand things down from parents to children.  There’s the admixture of DNA, personality traits, sometimes skills and habits, and then there are the traditions around holidays and special events, the perspectives on how the world works, finances and social status, as well as things.  Of course there is also the…

Continuing Education

The Akashics provides unique means of continuing in depth spiritual studies.  If you are interested in or currently studying Tarot, I-Ching, Runes, Kabbalah, Theosophy, the Medicine Wheel, or any other spiritual path or practice, you can find personal instruction in the Akashics.  There are three main ways to do so: read about it in the…

Something Different

Today I am visiting my Mom.  She’s in her mid-80’s, still living in the house I grew up in, and we’re going to visit and enjoy the glorious weather.  While I’m here I’m going to clean and tidy graves for the various family members, including my Dad, since I wasn’t able to do it over…

Body Memory

I remind my clients that our body is not a meat care we’re driving around in.  It’s an integral part of this embodied life (hence the word em-bodi-ed) and therefore is involved in the spiritual side of our lives.  In the reverse, our soul is interconnected with the body and thereby experiencing the physicalness of…

Life Management 101

There is always one thing you don’t get to.  The problem comes in when that thing is really, really important such as your health, your dreams, or your quality of life.  And there are all kinds of reasons for why that can be the case and almost all of them are completely reasonable, common sensical,…
