Many of us continue to hold onto old anger somewhere in our psyches, and try not to feel it. Year after year, we remember our anger towards someone, and it seems that the hurt happens anew, ripping open the wound, over and over again. The results may play out as physical symptoms and/or emotional distress. This remembering and rehashing frequently…
Imagine if you seriously believed that the universe was constantly conspiring in your favor. What would life be like for you, if this was your core belief in each moment, no matter what was happening? This actually is the greatest "conspiracy theory" of them all, that the universe has your back at all times. This is the operating principle of…
Instead of constantly checking the news about the Coronavirus outbreak, or speculating about why it’s here, this is a great time for all of us to clean house. I’m not talking about cleaning your physical domicile, but about diving deeper than the Coronavirus headlines by looking within ourselves, to see exactly what about this pandemic is upsetting us most today.…

Hmmm. Yes, you’ve heard that before. I’m talking about your intuition here, as I borrow from Nike. 😜 When we receive exciting guidance for our lives, it seems to me it is always in the now moment.

Seeing that in others can spur us on to become our own best selves, but the truth about awakening is that it is available to all…
I once had a friend who allowed her son to ride his bicycle without a helmet. I asked her why she didn’t demand that he wear one. This was 30 years ago, and I remember her response to this day. She said “I trust God to protect him.” I remember this because I didn’t have a reply for her. I…
What Is It That We Want? I have the answer: Satisfaction. Consider the fact that when each and every desire we have is fulfilled, we all get a great “Ahhh” feeling. Whether you call it satisfaction, peacefulness, happiness, or bliss, for all of us, it is the same. No matter what we want, positive or negative though it may…
What is Love? We expect that with our loved ones, we’d have deep, warm and fuzzy feelings coming from mutual unconditional acceptance and preference for each other.

Surrender and grow What would life feel like if you knew, deep down in your bones, that everything that happens to you is orchestrated specifically for your growth?
