It started innocently enough. The sign at Petco for adoption day...telling my husband, "I just want to look." I meant it when I said it. I love animals. I love going to places where there are animals and spending time with them. Then I saw her. She seemed to be calling to me. This beautiful 9-month old Siamese Cross with eyes of blue. I couldn't get to her fast enough. I picked her up and she hugged me. She rubbed against my face and I knew she was coming home with me. My husband took a … [Read more...]
The Teacher
Shortly after 9/11, I had returned home to Minneapolis from Arizona. I had worked with a Tibetan lama who instructed me to work with the animals - particularly the horses. As a healer, I understood the message and set out to offer my healing services to local horse rescue farms. Since I was a child, I had always wanted to own a horse - however, life intervened, finding my house full of members of the canine world. The world of horses is full of fun and exciting stories and adventure. I found … [Read more...]
Hormone Healing for Women Class
A woman's entire life is dictated by the nature of her hormones. While science is zeroing in on some of the physical factors involved in feminine hormone production and regulation, it has done little to address the energetic situations that can create hormonal heaven or hell. Co-founders of Be Real Index, Cyndi Dale and Carolyn Vinup, are helping women of every age transform the energetic issues that create hormone havoc. They are presenting the class "Hormone Healing for Women" on July 17 at … [Read more...]
Cat in the Buggy
By 2 Comments
Did you see that? That woman has a cat in the baby buggy! Yes, that would be me. After almost fifty years, once again I am pushing a baby buggy with a cat. It all started on a cold winter day late February 1956, and my Mom was pregnant with her first child: me. Being almost eight months pregnant and needing a nap, Mom lay down in her bed where she was immediately joined by Limit, a black-and-white short-hair cat, also pregnant and in need of a nap. As Limit fluffed the bed making herself … [Read more...]
Emerging Role of Faith-Based Nurses Aids in Prevention, Management of Chronic Diseases
Faith community nurses (FCNs) are playing an increasingly significant role in providing better access to basic health services for underserved populations, according to the University at Albany’s Center for Health Workforce Studies. The study, "Findings From a Study of Parish Nurses/Faith Community Nurses in the United States," suggests that FCNs are also a mechanism of retaining valuable expertise of public health nurses after they retire. Faith community nurses provide members of their … [Read more...]

Life’s GPS System
Not long ago I purchased a new car that came complete with a GPS unit. I thought it was a great feature, because I am notorious for getting lost. But, I must admit that I don't use it much. I think it is because I find it annoying to have someone tell me what to do in such detail. It seems to bother her greatly when I decide to stray from the route she has set up for me. Then, I get irritated at her insistence that I make a "legal U-turn" as soon as possible and get back on the road she has … [Read more...]
For the Love of Teddy
I have always shared my life with cats, yet nothing could have prepared me for the stray cat who found his way into my life, heart and soul. He showed up from nowhere, sitting squarely on my front steps, like a Romanesque statue. Upon closer examination, he was a disheveled orange tabby cat with a severe case of ear mites, frost bite on his feet bottoms and a left eye cataract, which appeared to emit laser beams. Although he looked rough on the outside, he had an inner radiance and we had an … [Read more...]
My Cheesepuff was no Cream Puff
I could feel the cat gently walking around my head on the pillow, pulling my hair ever-so-slightly. Deep in that last morning dream before waking, I realized I was lucid. I looked around and could see she was an orange and white, long-haired tabby. I just knew it was a she. I could hear her insistent meows. I blinked awake, smiled and thought, "Hmmm...this will be an interesting day!" I stopped by the Corner Store on the Universal Studios lot where I worked to check on my cousin who had … [Read more...]
God Loves Pets, Too
Nowhere is God's love closer to us than in the company of our pets. That is a bold statement. Since there is no record on file anywhere with such a quote from God, a lot of people have the mistaken idea that only they have the honor and privilege of being Souls. But pet lovers know better. It is a spiritual principle that Soul comes to earth in many different states of consciousness - and even in many different body forms. And God loves us all. Soul exists because God loves It. While no … [Read more...]
