    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 […]

    Relax and Let Go

    Don’t you love the words, “let go”? They bring to mind that old commercial in the 80’s of the Nestle Tea plunge, where the guy falls backward into a pool of water with eyes closed and a big grin on his face. Totally trusting, totally carefree. And isn’t it interesting that we could all live […]

    When I first had the inspiration to start a tutoring business, and later, a spiritual coaching business, I had no idea where to begin. The more I learned, the more overwhelmed I became by all the hoops I needed to jump through in order to make this thing happen. After which, I’d run for the […]

      It was one of the most difficult times in my life, relocating to South Carolina, feeling estranged from my husband, and working 14-hour days in a new school.  Every day was a practice in faith. Small gifts of unexpected joy came from a cup of coffee, laughter with my students, and having a Unity […]

    Birthing the Idea of Benevolence;Trusting the Universe

    The difficult times we’ve lived through are not there to represent how hard life can be, but to show us the truth of our strength and our ability to know, “I’ll be okay.” Memories still surface of my own two by four experience on this path 14 years ago. My marriage was falling apart and […]

    When we acknowledge there is ONLY one Power in the Universe – God, the Good, the Omnipotent. Nothing and no one can take away our good or our inheritance of grace. There is only one way that anything could have power over the Higher Consciousness of Love, and that is if we give it power […]

      I know, I know. In a world that values action, inaction can seem like self-sabotage. At the very least, it feels incredibly wrong and indicative of losing out in some way. Inaction is uncomfortable. It makes us squirm and worry over what we’re not doing or should be doing or are doing wrong. Oh, […]

      Back in 2005, I was teaching my first year at low income school in South Carolina. Every day felt like one more step into my own prison. I had loved teaching in Pennsylvania for the last 12 years, but here, there was too much stress, too much demand, and too little time. I was […]

    Two of my clients this week experienced the same struggle. That dreadful feeling when you feel depleted or longing to do something for yourself and someone you care about calls or texts with, “Do you have time to talk?” What you really want to say is, “No. I just don’t.” But what you say instead […]

    Her mind had been ruminating over some big questions lately, regarding a new home and career. The future loomed large, but instead of researching answers, she found herself spending a few hours googling beach retreats. Guilt ridden, she said, “Maybe I’m just trying to run away from my problems and my family. Everyone is getting […]
