I recently said a prayer asking for ways I could help others. I think we all have a desire to be of service. It makes us feel good; it makes us feel useful. Yet, the answer that came was that we don’t need to go looking for ways to help. Rather, we need to actually…
Self-preservation
Do you spend a lot of time preserving a body you’re not even enjoying living in? Do you find yourself obsessing over your health or taking good care of your body when all the while you don’t even really like your life? And deep down you know it would actually be a blessing if it…
This is Dreaming
It comes after announcing to the universe that you don’t even know how to dream anymore… Dreaming is pulling an animal spirit card and indulging yourself in its definition all afternoon. Dreaming is studying all the colors of the rainbow and then decorating your house accordingly. Dreaming is picking up the phone and calling someone…
Victimhood
This is a topic I’ve gotten to know a little too well lately… but thankfully, I am conscious of my own self sabotaging behaviors, and ready to make a change. Victimhood is a dangerous place to be, because it can become quite comfortable after a while. The longer you stay, the harder it is to…
God Outside of Us
I think it will always be human nature to seek God outside of ourselves. But if, when we do, it brings us back to our own center, then I don’t see anything wrong with that. Especially when, intellectually, we already know we carry God on the inside, and we never have to go seeking God…
The Simplest Philosophy of Life
When you put your focus on God, God fills in your life with everything you need. This is how life can be effortless. But it takes an intentional dedication to give yourself over to the Divine. It’s not hard, just time consuming. And once you commit to it regularly, the rewards are unimaginable. When you…
Being Led
Sometimes we are being led to places for reasons other than what we think. If you feel a strong impulse to go somewhere or do something, follow it. What you may find along the way may be just the thing you’ve been searching for. Our angels, guides, Spirit, or whatever it is you believe is…
The Stuff That Gets in the Way
I have to admit, I really wanted to call this blog, “The Stupid Shit That Gets in the Way.” But, 90% of the time, I hate profanity. I really do… however, sometimes, you just have to make a point! And for some reason, using profanity just seems to emphasize it more, am I right? That…
Sometimes Planning is Our Form of Resistance
A friend recently told this to me and I can’t stop contemplating the depth of its meaning. For I am a planner… perhaps a planner to a fault. I research and prepare and collect all the data. I recite what I will say, draw the outline and even purchase the website, but when it comes…
Healing
The fastest way to heal is to stop being something you’re not. Are you searching for the perfect pill? Are you trying all the latest therapies? Well the answer may be out of your hands. It can only come in fact, when you get our of your own way. When you STOP doing everything you…
