God, racism, spirituality

Healing in the context of the racism inherent in our society has been on my mind this week and, truly, for many years. What is my place in this part of the journey? Where can I best serve? Many years ago, I found myself in a circle of Black healers, thanks to my primary Reiki Teacher, herself a woman of color. She took me into her world and showed me a side of reality I hadn't been as aware of before that. For that I am grateful. I spent weeks and years learning from her and from an amazing group of healers who were healing more than I had ever imagined. Yes, my rape and trauma were awful, but they were not compounded by generations of...

Believing in an Unseen World

When I first had my experience of God, I truly believed I was going crazy. I was not raised to believe that another side of life existed and was ready to check myself into the hospital. But several things gave me pause. One, my experience was beautiful, and it made me feel very joyful and very peaceful. Two, I met and talked with people who were conversant in the spiritual world and found it completely ordinary that something like that would happen to a person.

The bigger work was learning that the spiritual world was not more important than the physical world, but equally so....

Just like we get dirty from living our lives and have to bathe, our spiritual connection needs to be maintained if we are to live lives that are whole.  There have been times in my life when I thought God had left me, especially after my beautiful experience. When I had to learn to life in the world again, it felt like God and my angels took a step back to help me learn to stand on my own two feet. I used to cry and feel completely abandoned....

Can One be Spiritual and Intellectual?

spirituality, Uncategorized

Having been raised in a hyper-intellectual environment, I was taught explicitly and implicitly that a spiritual approach to life was a less intelligent approach to life. My family was firmly rooted in rationality and judged anything that seemed irrational to be “crazy,” a term I recall hearing quite a bit in my house growing up. When I’m around my more intellectual friends and family, there is a continued judgment towards a “non-rational” approach to life, including one that embraces God and holistic approaches to healing. I understand that mindset because I was raised in it, and yet, to heal, I had to move past it. The mind is a vital part of our lives, but so is the spirit. As I’ve written before, I believe we...
