Do not be alarmed when something goes awry. Yes, in the instant that something out of the ordinary happens, the body reacts instinctively. Chemicals flow and you leap into action, often experiencing fear. Being aware of this automatic response can be quite freeing. In that brief moment of awareness, you [...]
Sanaya ... if you were to look up this name we have asked to be called, you would find that one of its meanings is “One Worth Knowing.” In this case, it is a most fitting name for all of you. Whether you accept this truth in your heart or [...]
You become habituated to react in a certain way with certain people. Think about two acquaintances approaching you at separate times. You may open up your energy field to one and close it down to the other depending upon past interactions. Oh my, how the human side limits new experiences. [...]
Cherubs appear on an airport wall in three dimensions.* They look so real. How do you know they are not? Who created these holographic images of loving beings? A being with intelligence and a desire to create. And who created this intelligent being called a human? A being with intelligence [...]
Why do you at times feel a sudden burst of love for another, even for one you may have never met? It is because something within you desires to express its true nature, which is love. Something within you senses in that seemingly separate other a chance to reflect this [...]
You can read all you want, or you can allow Wisdom to arise in awareness. You can study all you want, or you can observe and ask, “What do I need to know?” We are not speaking of your text books for material matters. Yes, study well to live your [...]
There is quite a difference between doing and being. With being, you flow. Picture a leaf in a stream. There is no effort. It is moving effortlessly with the current. In doing there is effort. Oh, how much easier your life would be if you would learn to find that [...]
Rocks in a stream. They impede the flow, but what does the stream do? It does not stop. It flows over and around, caressing the rock. It does not complain, “Oh, you are in my way!” No, onward it flows, ever so slowly wearing away at this obstacle without any [...]
You spray perfume to clear the air of unwanted scents, but what do you do with unwanted thoughts? They do not disappear so easily, especially if you simply mask them. Why, you look them straight in the eye, so to speak. You acknowledge that they have arisen, for this is [...]
What is the first thing you think when you look at another? How do you judge that book by its cover? Do you notice the size, the shape, the gender, the race? Do you notice the smile, the frown, the lines on the face? This is pure training. You learned to see in this way. It [...]
Interpretations. You read words passed down through the ages. What do they mean? Will you trust the interpretation of someone other than yourself, who may have been told what to believe by others as well? Or will you move awareness to the heart, where dwells pure Awareness, your very Source, [...]
Swirling lights. Bouncing orbs. Flashes of insight. Visions of beings now passed. What to make of all of this? You are not alone. You are limited for a while in your sight and hearing and touch, but you are never out of touch with Divine Presence. At times there is [...]
Fairy tales have happy endings, and yet you look around you and you see some stories in your life that do not. An ending is not always an ending. Life goes in cycles. Death leads to rebirth. Life can be a page-turner. You don’t know what’s coming in the next [...]
What are miracles, but signs that reflect back to us in undeniable ways the power of our True Nature. This past Saturday I gave a charity workshop called "Shedding Your Skin" to help you move beyond your fears (shedding your human "skin"/the ego) to freedom (the soul's innate state). We [...]
You view the eyes as your blindfold to the non-physical world, and it is an apt analogy, but it is not only the eyes which keep you blinded to the eternal presence of Spirit within and without. The entire body is a mask of sorts. What you put into it [...]
Listen. What do you hear when you stop talking? What do you notice when you stop thinking? You cannot stop thoughts from arising, but when you pause to listen, the thoughts arise and are noticed in awareness. Now you can choose which ones to follow, instead of blindly responding to [...]
Connecting with Loved Ones Who Have Passed is Only Part of the Miracle We want so badly to connect with our loved ones who have passed. This is validated by the number of you who respond so positively to my online and in-person classes that teach how to communicate across [...]
“This is an interesting twist in the plot.” Imagine how much more peaceful your life would be if this were your habitual reply when things got ... well, interesting. Yes, you have chosen as a soul to live in the world of duality, and you do that through your story. [...]
Unfinished business … Interactions with those closest to us can be challenging when they’re out in the open, but unresolved issues can fester for years, if not lifetimes. These can cover the spectrum from hurt feelings or broken hearts to loving words or praise left unsaid when a loved one [...]
