Feel Your Anger

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…

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…

Coronavirus and Trust – What Can I Do to Feel Better?

What's Going On? Many of us wonder what this Coronavirus is all about, and how we can trust the universe, in the face of this pandemic.

Service Is An Act of Love

Service. What is it and why bother? I seriously never hear this word from people any more. It’s as if it doesn’t even exist. There’s lots of talk about doing what you love, living in the present moment, and enjoying the now and the gifts we have. There’s talk of manifesting stuff we want. And there’s some discussion around sharing what’s…

Loving Your Inner Critic

Do you know your inner critic? The inner critic is that voice in your mind that tells you the irrational, fear-provoking thoughts that you’ve been rehearsing much of your life. This inner critic can shake your foundation with statements such as: “You can’t do that!” “That’s too scary. Better not go!” “You’re not lovable!” “Shut up! You don’t know what…

Silence is golden

The Portuguese Man O'War has no propulsion system of its own. Its top looks like a Portuguese war helmet. It moves with the flow of the ocean. It eats what comes into its path. It's the perfect zen master of the sea, powerful and silent, floating freely. I saw a few of these last week while kayaking among the mangroves…

Feeling Feelings? The Plight of Empaths

Because many Reiki practitioners are empaths, a common discussion among practitioners revolves around the suffering that is felt when a friend or client has an illness or is going through a situation that seems sad. Events Can't Be Judged As an empath, I always try to remember that what others are experiencing is not random and cruel. I have found,…

Meditation is not a way of making your mind quiet. It's a way of entering in two the quiet that's already there.

What Holds You Back Isn’t Real

We tend to see yogis, lamas, and other spiritual leaders as being in a class all their own. “That level of spirituality is unattainable for me!,” we may think. We may feel “less than” and unworthy. We lament, “For God’s sake, the sheer amount of work involved to get there must be an insurmountable amount of sweat and sacrifice!” We…

Incapable

Hello Anxiety, My Old Partner I awoke this morning with a pain in my upper belly. I am on vacation with a friend, about to discover the joys of Sedona. I have no apparent worries, nothing I have to do, nowhere I have to go! Yet, I awoke with this pain. Diving into the pain, I realized it was linked…
