Lessons from the Universe are always present, and finding the stillness within us can allow those lessons to be comprehended. As we all have found, the lessons come quietly, but at times the lessons are as loud as a rushing waterfall. My first lesson from the Universe came to me at the age of 6. My Shetland pony, Trixie was enjoying her oats. I decided to get on her back and enjoy that moment with her. I had no bridle or halter, but I easily stepped on the fence and sat on her back as I had … [Read more...]

An Easter Message: Passionately against ‘The Passion’

garin

The Passion, a gruesome, violent account of Jesus' death, is about to become the focal point of most Christian churches. Although traditional Christianity is solely focused on the belief that Jesus died for our sins, the graphic portrayal of his death is not always in the forefront. Easter ignites the fervor within all "good" Christians to remember we are sinners. Easter is the time we must remember he suffered and died in order to save our souls from eternal damnation.

Living in the Sweetness of Your Space

guyette

Those of you who are sensitive know that many things can affect the feeling of the space in which you live and work. Each item you own has an energy connection to you and is either supporting your progress or holding you back. Energetic clutter (too much stuff and a messy place) draws you out of clarity, keeping you from being present here and now. As you expend energy to ignore the clutter, you become more unconscious. Other underlying energetic conditions also have an impact. Homes may … [Read more...]
