Throughout my life I have been taught to fear loss. Losing things that are costly to replace, losing the ability to do something, losing my innocence, losing God’s love, you name it, it can be lost in a heartbeat and never be regained. And some of that is true. Life can’t be given back if…
So many people have difficulty with asking for help for one reason or another. Which, to my mind, is somewhat sad. It’s one thing to not get help when you need it and are asking for it, but it’s another to not ask for it or accept it when it is offered, which are two…
For several months I have been working on creating a class for DailyOm that teaches the uninitiated how to reach the Akashic realm and how to read the record of their soul there. I have finally finished the eighth and final lesson. Yay!! I hope to be putting the class into their system this coming…
What holds you back from doing the things you really want to do? Everyone longs to do something, even if its parents who just need to get out for a few hours to see a movie. What is it that you want to do? What is holding you back from doing it? I often hear,…

I believe that a great majority of the debate, the argument, the discussion, around women’s rights is being framed incorrectly.

Why would women need all this controlling…
I’ve been wondering, why can’t life be a bit more like Perry Mason? Every walk of life is living their wild and craziness in unfettered abandon, bumping into each other, messing with each other, scrabbling over each other to get the gold ring, basically normal everyday stuff, until someone crosses that line. Whammo! Badness happens…
Carol Christ is one of the founding mothers of Women’s Spirituality and someone I highly respect and admire. Since the 60’s she has taken her education in theology as well as her own experience of spirituality and her understanding of the world and the Universe as a woman and woven a new way to experience…
I have always struggled, or been frustrated, with the ascetic life. Being a spiritual person, having studied many different cultures and spiritualities, studied with elders and teachers, I come back to the same question I had when I was a little girl. Why come here to this place if you don’t want to be here? …
Over the past couple of weeks I have noticed something interesting. Kind of like having a friend that is pregnant and then noticing pregnant women everywhere. You know they were there before, you just weren’t tuned in. What I’ve been noticing lately is people limiting their success. It’s not about abilities, it’s not about talent…
