    Grief – Surviving the Holidays

    Many struggle through the holidays carrying a burden of grief.  It may be grief caused by the death of a loved one, or it may be the loss of a way of life (divorce, break-up, job loss, career change), it could be the diagnosis of a terminal illness, or any life-altering event. There are 7 stages of grief and we need to work through each of them to move forward: shock and denial, pain and guilt, anger and bargaining, depression, the upward turn, reconstruction and working through, acceptance and hope. Grief is very personal.  Some people work through them faster than others and the order is not the same for…

    Darkness to Light

    My house is quiet as it’s early and everyone else is still asleep.  It’s not all that cold this morning, but I decided to use the fireplace as a focal point for meditation.  The fire just started talking with its sizzling, crackling, and popping.  The little white lights on our holiday tree add to the peaceful feeling. During this Season of Lights, we reflect on the growing darkness as we approach the time of Winter Solstice, the longest night of the year.  In about a week, the days will begin to lengthen once again.  This ongoing cycle reminds us that darkness is but “for a time.” When the days grow…

    Happiness and Health: The Two Most Important Things in Life

    The world appears to be obsessed with money and material things.   Keeping up appearances … the size of your house, the type of car you drive, and even where you travel on your holidays … has many folks trying to do one better do their friends and family.  I find this sad and disheartening. I have a friend who is like those mentioned above.  His thoughts are consumed with money.  He is always talking about money … how to earn it, how to spend it, how much he doesn’t have, how much “so and so” makes, all the things he’ll change when he wins the lottery, etc. He spends more on…

    Relationship Woes

    Every once in awhile, I receive a call from someone wanting to talk to a psychic. I’m intuitive, but don’t claim to be psychic and don’t feel we should ever rely on someone else to “tell us what to do” which is often the way those conversations start. I offered to do a coaching session. The young man wanted to know the difference between a psychic reading and a coaching session.  I explained that coaching would help him make a decision for himself and asked what he was concerned about. A relationship. Should he choose Woman A or Woman B? And he immediately started telling me a little about both.…

    How I Do Sessions by Email

    Sessions by email?!?!  Really???? Absolutely!  The energy matrix of the universe connects all of us and allows me to work with anyone, anywhere even when I’ve never met or talked to them.  Online or email sessions are the foundation of my business and I’ve been blessed to work with people all over the world. I love that I can sit for as long as needed with my focus and intention only on you and your concern.  It also allows great flexibility for me as I work sessions in around my family schedule. How does this work? You select the kind of session you want (energy clearing, house healing, past life,…

    Despair Anchors

    Mental health plays a huge role in the way we view ourselves and our world. It is vitally important to take note of how you think about yourself and your life. Holding too many negative beliefs reinforces unhealthy Despair Anchors.  Despair Anchors are negative thought patterns that have become ingrained (or programmed) in your subconscious. Let’s take a closer look at how they can affect your life as well as some effective ways to release them. When you frequently repeat negative self-talk and ideas, they enter your subconscious. The more often you repeat the idea or concept, the more powerful it becomes. When repeated often enough, it begins change the…

    Cord Cutting

    Cord Cutting First, a bit about entanglement or cords: Our energy field can look something like this mass of electrical wires in the photo. Quantum Entanglement is the concept that two people, no matter how physically far apart they may be, can still be connected by an invisible cord of energy. The space between you and any other person/object may appear empty, but it is full of energy. You have living energy, your spouse or partner has energy, the lamp has electrical energy, and even the sofa has potential energy. The energy in the spaces between generally just passes through the other energy. It slides on by without causing more…

    I Promise …

    For many people, taking a vow or an oath sticks with them … even after it no longer serves its purpose.  This can be especially true when you have been married and are now divorced.  Several clients recently had “vows” come up to be cleared during sessions as they were creating imbalances due to limiting beliefs. I often work with women and these women had been married and divorced.  Yet the commitment they made during their wedding vows continued to impact them in a big way.  During traditional marriage vows, we promise to stay with the other person in sickness and health, rich or poor.  We additionally promise to love,…

    In Need of Quiet Distraction

    You know how every once in a while (or maybe more like all the time) you have song lyrics continually running through your head? No matter what you do, they just don’t seem to stop … even at night when you’re trying to sleep. Do you ever have troublesome thoughts that do the same thing? Me too! Last night and this morning I found myself in that boat. I knew it was time to let someone move on from being part of my life but just couldn’t seem to let go. I kept going back over why we needed to stay in touch and how I needed to be there…

    Celebrate Sleep Awareness Week

    Sometimes getting a full night’s sleep seems impossible to achieve. No matter what the cause – stress, pain, your work schedule or another reason – if you are not receiving regular, quality sleep it can interfere with your health. The Centers for Disease Control (CDC) says, “Insufficient sleep is associated with a number of chronic diseases and conditions – such as diabetes, cardiovascular disease, obesity, and depression – all of which threaten our nation’s health.” Sleep Awareness Week (March 10-16) gives us an opportunity to leave insufficient sleep behind and get back to the quality sleep that is so vital to our health and well-being. Here are a few ways…
