It’s not your fault if you are afraid.
Everything you have experienced in your life up to this point has was designed to make you feel this way. Powerless. Scared. Maybe even despairing. Hiding in your home. Afraid to go out. Afraid to go to work.
Or, maybe you are one of the people who has decided to rat out your fellow citizens. To spy on them and tell on them. Your friends and neighbors. People you used to like, maybe. You are doing this in the name of “the greater good”, feeling virtuous because you think you are keeping everyone “safe”. You’ll show them. Keep reading

“I saw it on Facebook. It must be true.”
NOT.
We all know that there is a lot of information on the internet, and not all of it is trustworthy. How do you decide what you can and cannot trust? I used to take it for granted that any information put forth by, say, government agencies must be reliable.
What I know now is that it is not. You have to go to the source and educate yourself to empower yourself so that you can advocate for yourself and your loved ones. What I also know is that if I post something that is true on Facebook, Facebook can slap a “False Information” claim on it and remove it. That’s what they did when I posted about a court case concerning vaccines and the CDC. (see below) Keep reading

I talk a lot about about making time for self care.
Here is something you can do in 5 minutes or so to give yourself some tools that will be ready when you are to take 5 minutes for yourself:
—a small basket (but you can use a tray or even a gift bag—whatever you have) with crayons 🖍 , crystals, a card deck, journal and pen … you get the idea. Whatever YOU want.
BONUS: It can become a portable altar.
If you want some privacy and/or are not interested in feedback about your creation from various other people in your household, Tuck it under the bed (or in a closet, or in a drawer) when not in use, pull it out for a few minutes first thing in the morning or before you go to sleep. Pull a card, or write a few lines in your journal, or simply sit with your crystal of choice for a few moments and breathe. Keep reading

You may have heard of Deepak Chopra’s 21 Day Meditation Series.
I have participated in it many times. This year, I decided not to.
And then a friend invited me to a group practice of this meditation series. 🙂
The synchronicity of this was amazing to me. I wanted to do a free 21 Day Challenge in my Facebook Groups but, for various reasons, talked myself out of it.
And then this invitation showed up from my friend Deb to join her 21 Day event!
I decided it aligned with my goals and values to do this. I want to meditate every day so this would help me meet that goal. It provides a nice structure–structure is my friend– so I didn’t have to think about what to do. It involves journaling and I am a strong believer in the power of writing as a therapeutic and spiritual tool. I also value the power of a community of like-minded people all focusing their energies on the same goal. Keep reading

I am not sure when it happened, but at some point I realized that owls have special meaning to me. I love it when I notice them, and even more when they notice me.
Artemis, a saw-whet owl.
My husband and I took advantage of the Owl Prowl Series offered by The Center for Wildlife in York, Maine. About 35 people of all ages showed up for this talk even though it was only in the 30’s outside.
Lesson: Love of owls trumps cold weather.
It was held in a covered area, but we were still outside. I wished I had put on long underwear and that I had double-socked. Some people brought towels or blankets to sit on (those wood benches were cold!) but most of us just sucked it up and then forgot about the cold once the talk began and the ‘Owl Ambassadors’ came out to meet us. (Okay, full disclosure–my husband gave up his gloves for me to sit on … my bum was cold!!! 🙂 ) Keep reading

Last night I was working on a Vision Board in preparation for a class I am teaching next month. For this particuIar project, I was trying to avoid looking at the words and focus just on the images, so it took me a while to notice how many of the ads in the magazine were drug company ads.
I decided to go back to the beginning and tear out all of the pharmaceutical ads.
I could not believe it!
So many ads telling us that we are broken, faulty, but don’t worry–we can sell you a medication for that! A toxic, potentially deadly, medication.
The most egregious of these is the Gardasil ad. I recently heard this vaccine referred to as “Garda-kill” by Brandy Vaughn (a former drug company rep for Merck). Think about that. Keep reading
