I had the wonderful opportunity about three years ago to run in the Los Angeles marathon. When training began it seemed overwhelming, but after talking to the coaches I was reassured that it would be okay. We started off with little runs, and then moved on the weekends to bigger runs. Before I trained for the marathon I started running about year out. I started with simply running one lap around the track, then two, then a mile. As I... Read more
Each of us has heard it at some point in our life, “love yourself, you are to hard on yourself.” So you are thinking, how do I do that? Being gentle with yourself, will bring forth gentleness in the world. But most of us are not gentle with ourselves, in fact when I meet clients for the first time, you can tell where they are by their impatience. Most people just want a quick fix, band aid, mantra, healing, guru,... Read more
As we have been experiencing in the past blogs, there is one power. I have shared ways in which you can connect to the one power which I call unconditional presence (God). As you connect to the source of all life, and listen for inspiration and guidance, you will be resting in co-creation. That means your dependence on things outside of you ends. As that happens, you will realize that your relationships shift, money shifts, health shifts, your spiritual practice... Read more

One of the biggest lessons each of us will learn is this motto, “Everyone has a right to their opinion and I have right not to listen to it.” I love this motto which I got from Joel Osteen. When you live fully in your life and follow that inner voice you will be happy, provided for, alive, and enlivened. You are a great light and your light has to reach its potential. In order for your light to reach... Read more
Sometimes in my work with clients, after listening, a question comes forward that helps in adjusting the current perspective. Today, after you read the question, sit with it, live with it, and notice when you first read the question, how you react to it, allow the reaction to come, allow the reaction to go. But be aware of the reaction (resistance) to the question. The question at first will seem ordinary, maybe even interesting, but whatever the case is, sit... Read more
Most people feel lost in some way, whether that is in their career, relationships, money, health, somewhere or some part of their life they feel a sense of disconnection from the whole. That is expressed with, “I feel lost”, “I don’t know who I am”, or subtle forms, “Its my partners fault”, “My boss has it in for me,” or “Every relationship that I have been in turns out this way.” This sense of feeling lost can only found in...

The nectar of life is the discovery of the unconditional as your life. You are an expression of the unconditional life.

As the rocket launches into space, the men and women on the rocket are leaving what they know to enter a vast unknown. The astronauts have done practice runs, trained, and yet they are still entering an unknown. There is excitement, adventure, and aliveness. This is true when we leave on vacation,we go to explore new territory, people, places, and things.... Read more
