I don’t listen to music much, but luckily my intuition knows how to get my attention when I need it most. I usually wake up with a song in my head that won’t leave my mind until I listen to it. Just a couple days ago, I woke up with the lyrics “When it Rains”…

First Impressions Mean Nothing
Have you ever put a tremendous amount of pressure on yourself to look a certain way when you first meet someone? Or, to act in a way that’s aimed to please, rather than be who you really are? Well, we all have. And that’s because of the saying that’s been drilled into our heads from…
Changing the Perspective of Our Wounds
If we carry around our wounds, rigid in our belief systems of how they came and why, we are closing the door on further answers about them to come through. We all think we know why, but what if there’s more to the story than we know? And what if just by changing our perspective…
Love & Joy
The love and the joy in my life are what heal me. Emotions are powerful healing forces in our lives if we know how to use them right. It’s not just about our nutrition and our exercise programs, but how well we think about ourselves everyday. Can you accept the days you fall short? The…
Passion Is of the Ego
The reason for the title of this blog is because: If all you do is set out to follow your desires, and satisfy yourself, you will be left feeling alone and never whole – because there will always be something else; there will always be “more.” As human beings, we’ll never stop wanting, and we’ll…

Often times we get these urges to do something, or a thought about the past arises which causes us to think we need to take action. But how about we stop before we act and consult our higher mind first? Our higher mind is the one that’s detached from our ego. And it usually has another opinion…
Knowing What’s Best for Us
We think we know what’s best for us, but do we really? When you look back and reflect on your life, I’ll bet there’s a lot of times you thought you or someone else needed something, only to find out later on, that not receiving it was actually a blessing. Or that in time, there…
Make the Mistakes
Make the mistakes, because making them is better than never starting at all. We have all feared the mistakes we might make, and it paralyzes us from taking action. But if we just accept right off the bat, that we are going to make mistakes and that nothing is going to be perfect, we can at least stop making…
Just Focus on the Silence
That’s all you have to do. Sometimes I think we can even overthink meditation. We can count our breaths, slow our breath, or use guided visualization. And while all these methods have their place, what about just listening to the silence? What about just literally doing nothing? Yes, it’s true that your thoughts will come and go,…
