Manifesting 101 – Part 1

Manifestation in its simplest form is a conversation between an individual and the Universe in all its aspects.  One side speaks and then the other in an ongoing communication that allows each to express itself.  This being the case, the clearer the person is on what they are trying to communicate the better chance for…

Start Where You Are – Or Not…

The concept of “Start Where You Are” is predicated on somewhat of an either/or proposition.  Basically the wisdom is to not wait until you have a perfect situation to start doing what you want or what is best because then you never will.  So start where you are and go from there.  But what if…

Sacred Space – Here and There

Like many things in our lives we have a very us/them relationship with Sacred Space.  For the most part we see it as other than us, residing in buildings specifically designed to create and contain it such as churches, existing in nature such as awe inspiring mountains, water falls, rivers, or canyons, and forming temporarily…

Right Brain Opposite Land

Our left brain seeks to make meaning out of the world around us including our personal experiences of it.  Many times it weighs these experiences the same as physical laws such as gravity, so if something has always happened to you in the past, just like objects always having to fall to earth, this something…

Awkward Teenage Moments

There are a few things that most everyone agrees on.  Taxes are no fun and no one likes paying them.  The Dentist may be a fun person, but going to the dentist office is never going to be a fun event.  And our teenage years are something that we never want to revisit.  In fact,…

Self Care

As adults a great part of our life is about the limited amount of time and energy we have in each day and how we choose or don’t choose to use it.  Many years ago I took a management class which was mainly fluff and incredibly basic, but there was one gem that I have…

Seeing Blindly

There is definitely a line between focusing on a goal, and focusing so tightly on what we want that we are unable to see what is right in front of you.  It’s good to work towards something and to focus on that enough to be able to accomplish it.  But if that is all you…
