Experiencing Turbulence While Rising to a Higher Frequency
In the field of quantum physics, they have a term they use when the energy is changing from one level of frequency to a higher level. It’s called turbulence. I love this term. It’s the exact same experience the birds have as they rise to the next airstream. They must experience some resistance as they […]

Do You Need to Learn to Be Selfish?
A month ago, I met a passionate woman putting together a seminar for healers. She asked if I would give a brief talk on self-compassion. A month ago, I would have said yes. But when I received the email with an update of the event’s information, my heart sank. My weekly workload had increased over […]

“Meditation is not a tool, but a function of your natural Self, a focus on access.”

A Course of Love

Living our lives from spiritual truth requires more than just knowing these truths intellectually. It requires a practice of quieting the mind long enough to make conscious contact with the Higher Self, so we may experience these truths for ourselves.

During meditation, we come face to face with the Loving Source inside each of us.

Does Surrender Require Sacrifice?
There have been several times in my life when I questioned God, how long until… I knew about the law of attraction. I knew about setting goals and visualization. I knew about affirmations. And I did those things. I went through the exercises and followed the rules, only to find the Universe cannot be manipulated […]

No Longer Waiting for Self-Approval
As I slumped in my meditation chair, I asked, “How long, God? How long?” I’ve thrown this question out to the Universe many a times when discouragement, weariness, or the desire to run away has overtaken me. The “how long” meant how long till this vision of mine comes to fruition? How long do […]
