Characteristics of Love: Love is Not Self-Seeking

Not being self seeking can be confusing at first. On one hand we can not give of anything until we have it within ourselves. Being self assured, self giving, and providing self care are all good things. We do need to seek our healing, our inner light, and to seek out what is best inContinue reading “Characteristics of Love: Love is Not Self-Seeking”

Have You Discovered the Power of Taking Holy Moments?

This morning I sat with my tea just waking up and taking in the new day. I closed my eyes for a moment and the first thing I noticed was all of the noise that usually goes unnoticed. The heater came on, a car went by outside, birds were chirping in the trees, and thenContinue reading “Have You Discovered the Power of Taking Holy Moments?”

Hard to Press: What Feels Right?

It’s so frustrating to attempt ironing a garment that refuses to unwrinkle. Usually items that are 100% cotton or even linen are the most difficult. They can be taken to someone to be professionally laundered and still they wrinkle so easy when worn. Usually we try to spray starch the heck out of them justContinue reading “Hard to Press: What Feels Right?”

It’s Alright to Be a “Runner”

For the longest time I have felt very honest with myself, and others, when classifying myself as “a runner”. It means I take off when things are not working for me, hurtful, harmful, or when I am completely “done” with a situation. This does not mean running from responsibility or what I know is right.Continue reading “It’s Alright to Be a “Runner””

Does Hypnosis Really Work?

Did you know you are always “on”? What I mean by that is, your mind is always working. Not just your brain, but your mind. This includes what we call the “unconscious” mind. You have both consciousness and a part of you that is always running in the background. The unconscious mind is kind ofContinue reading “Does Hypnosis Really Work?”

When “Things” Are Not Meant to Be

I believe that life has a natural flow and when we are willing to look deep enough we can see where things are shifting. This flow is not as easily seen as the seasons when they change in weather but they can be seen, felt, and discerned. It’s always hard to shift to a newContinue reading “When “Things” Are Not Meant to Be”

The Shoe is on the Other Foot

It will happen. “The shoe will eventually end up on the other foot.” The statement, “The shoe is on the other foot,” means someone who had the disadvantage in a situation now has the advantage in some area. I don’t know why, but having a shoe on the other foot always makes me think IContinue reading “The Shoe is on the Other Foot”

Returning to Your Authentic Self

Some time ago I sat quietly and listened to a heart broken client express, “I don’t know who I am anymore, and I have no idea where I am going.” Tearfully she explained how her life had been slowly going through a change. One day she woke up and nothing felt right for her anyContinue reading “Returning to Your Authentic Self”

Weekly Wisdom: Are You Nice or Kind?

Not long ago a friend and I had a discussion about how different it is to be nice vs being kind. The conclusion was a nice action is just that; doing something nice for someone. Being kind on the other hand is an act of deep caring. Being nice takes some effort but being kindContinue reading “Weekly Wisdom: Are You Nice or Kind?”

Is it a Mess, Message, or More?

The last week I met with the challenge of cleaning out my storage unit. My things had been packed and stored away for the last five years. I know, an incredible amount of time to have things in storage. I opened the door and stared inside. The contents were more daunting then I had remembered.Continue reading “Is it a Mess, Message, or More?”
