The Heart Wants What The Heart Wants

You may have heard me say “we take ourselves with us”, over and over again. I mean that on so many levels. We take our unresolved issues, unexpressed thoughts, and even our broken hearts with us when we die. As far as I am concerned this is wonderful!

Why? Because it proves we are still accessible, vulnerable and available for conversation when in spirit. I have the pleasure of bearing witness to this phenomenon each and every day. Because as long as those in spirit, our dearly departed, ancestors and friends, are accessible and available – connection, communication, and conciliation is possible. And therein lies the blessing.

Intend to Connect

A new year typically inspires new resolutions. As you turn the calendar page you find yourself resolute once again. Your mind races with the thought of achieving unlimited possibilities. For many, the beginning of a new year goes hand-in-hand with clearing the slate as boundless opportunities stretch out in front of you.

You resolve to begin anew; to pay more attention to how you fuel and care for your fabulous body, or maybe you will find a new job this year, or perhaps give up an old (less than desirable) habit. Whatever you decide, you absolutely decide to pay more attention and focus on achieving your goals.

The beauty in it is that you possess the power to put your resolutions into action. How fabulous is that? You are in complete control. To quote Henry Ford: “Whether you think you can, or you think you can’t – you’re right.” Read More

Fear Is a Choice

Divisiveness, disagreements, name calling, finger pointing all have something in common.

Toxic and unhealthy behaviors are ramping up day by day and have become epidemic in our society, igniting and fueling the spread of fear. The greater the degree of such unhealthy behavior, the greater the yearning for commonality – connection.

As a people, we have become terribly divided. We are suffering so dearly from this division that we have resorted to creating a connection any way we can, whether we are aware of it or not.

You see, humans are a social species and we thrive on connection. Some of our best ideas, products, services, brainstorms are birthed through our connections. Read More

Receive Your Riches

Riches Abound! They arrive in many different shapes, sizes, colors and forms.

They arrive when you least expect them.

They arrive when you could really use a lift.

They arrive as bonuses when your cup already runneth over.

Make a note of these riches, for they are miracles descending from the heavens. They are God’s way, our way, of reminding you that you have everything you need at your fingertips. Read More

April Showers

Along with the flowers the showers of April bring, the month of April also brings the taxman. For many, thoughts of “the taxman cometh” also brings upon a great deal of stress. Lately, the collective stress level is rising, be it due to the tax man or our current state of affairs. And while many of us welcome good stress, eustress, that which has a positive impact on us, challenges the brain and body and helps us to do our very best; we simply become unraveled when we find ourselves overwhelmed with a case of bad stress, distress, that negative stress, which, over time can lead to ill health. We all know what that feels like, we have all experienced it at one time or another, can’t find your car keys and you’re already late, not prepared for a meeting and the boss is waiting, can’t stand your job, but you must go to work, dealing with a divorce, or illness in the family … what’s a person to do?

Your Love Story

Everyone loves a good love story, but does your love story include you?

Over the years I have learned that a majority of women do love truly, madly, deeply when it comes to others, but not so much when it comes to themselves. They find the idea to be quite novel.

Many women have a difficult time with the thought of loving themselves, It’s as if they are either unable to understand the concept or accept their own love. While others capitalize on the self-love, embrace their strengths and soar. I find the disparity fascinating and encouraging.

I am encouraged by the number of women, who, when they dip their toes into the waters of self-care and self-love, are amused, tickled pink and grateful. Their self-esteem blossoms and their confidence increases. Read More

Regret or Release?

I just walked into my office and the Boyz II Men/Mariah Carey song One Sweet Day came on. That song has deeply touched me since its release which was shortly after the death of my mother.

However, today, the opening and closing lyrics: Sorry I never told you all I wanted to say…prompted me to stop and think about those of you who may be living those lyrics.

I think about those of you who are sorry because you were never given the opportunity to say all – or any – of what you may have wanted to say to a loved one who left this earth plane before you had the chance. That, for me, is a halting thought. I cannot fathom what it must feel like to never have been able to say all you wanted to say. Read More

(If Only) In My Dreams

“There’s no place like home for the holidays and no matter how far away you roam, if you want to be happy in a million ways, for the holidays you can’t beat home sweet home.”

I love that sentiment. Come to think of it – who will you be hosting this holiday season? Will your table include a place setting for your dearly departed loved ones? If that thought has not yet crossed your mind please allow me to share with you…

Our ancestors and loved ones in spirit enjoy the festivities and the warm and loving feelings which are amplified during this season of peace, love and joy. They take great pleasure in sitting by the fireside, keeping company with their loved ones and rejoicing in the simple pleasures of family, togetherness and happiness.

The Timeliness of the Turkey

I am grateful to the turkey for its courage, wisdom and strength. It is precisely the energy and wisdom we need to help us navigate through these trying times.

The turkey has always been a powerful spiritual symbol for many North American tribes.
In addition to symbolizing abundance and generosity, turkeys are seen as messengers from the spiritual world, offering guidance in various aspects of life.

Female turkeys are known for their protective nature and are considered symbols of fertility, protection, abundance and connection to Mother Earth. Read More
