Taking Time to Connect

centering, meditation, sacred practices

Every morning when I wake up, I usually (if I'm awake before my family) have a choice - spend a few minutes meditating and connecting to God/Source, or get out of bed and drink a bunch of coffee. On my best days, I manage to squeeze in both of these things, with meditating coming first (!). I have seen in my own life how much of a difference it makes for the rest of my day. When I forget to meditate, or I get too busy to meditate, my days feel off-kilter, as they often did before I ever learned about a spiritual side of life. Then I never fully connect to myself or something higher, and I am scrambling about for the rest of the...

Seeing the Love

heart, Love

A question that has come up time and again is - Where is God when tragedy strikes? It's easy to feel confused when watching the news or when experiencing difficulties in your own life. I'm not a sage or a wisdom-keeper, but I can tell you what I've learned since my Spiritually-Transformative Experience (STE). I hope it will be helpful. As I write about often, in my STE I felt God's love very intensely, for me and for everyone. I saw light in all things and people. This experience, or really, series of experiences, was so profound that it shifted my life completely. But as many people ask and as I wondered in the past, if that light is there all the time, why doesn't it seem...

The seed of joy

joy

There is a kernel of joy at the center of your being. It was with you when you were born, and it will be with you throughout your life and beyond. It is your essence, your soul spark, your true nature, and the seat of God within you. We each have this seed of joy, no matter who we are or how we seem to others. And yet, sometimes it can be hard to connect to that joy. Between kids, jobs, bills, and the news (and anything else you may have on your plate), that joy can so easily get buried beneath all the needs of the day. I have definitely been aware of how much I've let the worries of life take over and cloud...

Finding Love Wherever You Are

Love

When the world seems to be falling apart, it can help to remember that this is not all there is. I don't mean to ignore problems and issues in our world, but to see them from a higher perspective. At our core, we are all Love and we are all created from Love. When we get out of alignment with the Love that created us (and how many ways there are to do that!), we may lose touch with that Love, but the Love never goes away. It is always there at your center. It is always there beneath everything in our world. We just need to connect with it. I believe this in large part because of my Spiritually Transformative Experience (STE) - something I've only...

Enjoying Life & Having Fun

fun

Having fun may seem selfish. It may seem fruitless. However, I believe part of why we're here is to have fun, grow, and enjoy life. I would not have been able to write that a few years ago, before I began healing. I know it can seem hard to enjoy life when the world seems unfair and harsh. But there is still joy in the moment, because joy is who you are. I remember being asked many years ago in therapy what made me happy. I couldn't even answer! I didn't know what happiness felt like and I did not know anything that could help me feel that way. So, I started small. I enjoyed nature. I liked flowers. I pulled a thread that eventually brought...

Loving Yourself

Love

Self-love is a form of self-care. Loving yourself can mean any number of things. To me, it means letting ourselves open up to the love that created us, to the love that always lives within us. In my journey and spiritual studies I've come to understand that we are all love at the core of our beings. It's a world-view that can seem impossible when watching the news, but probable when you see the love that exists quietly around you in friends, family, and loved ones. So few of us were raised to love ourselves. We feel far from the love that created us. If it seems far away or unlikely, it's only because our human world has been living far away from the love that...

Using Your Will in Alignment with Divine Guidance

honoring your truth, inner knowing, Will

As we enter 2021, I felt called to write about finding the balance between using your will and following your inner guidance. Your will is the power you use to create things in the world. Your inner guidance is the promptings you receive from your higher self, spirit guides, and God as to the best path for your soul. Ideally, your will be in balance with your higher guidance. Finding the balance between the two is the sweet spot that will help you create beauty in your life and in the lives of those around you. Before my experience and before learning to heal, I used my will to create that which I wanted in my life. I did not have a sense of something higher...

Letting Go of the Past

Releasing the Past

As 2020 comes to an end, I’m thinking about letting go of the past. Are there things and people in your past that are clinging to you and not letting go? I can relate! Before my experience with the light, I spent a long time trying to make peace with the past. I did many exercises and went to a lot of therapy. Sometimes it helped, but most of the time, I felt weighed down by the pain of the past. Thankfully, my experience taught me that pure love can heal in an instant. Loving myself with total acceptance has helped me come to peace with myself and what’s come before. While letting go of the past can seem like a very hard thing to do, it...

Staying with the Breath

breath

Today, amidst Coronavirus and the memories of 9/11, I'm thinking about the breath and about how important it is to breathe. Last summer I ended up in the hospital with spreading limb numbness that was eventually diagnosed as a mild form of Guillain-Barré. Guillain-Barré syndrome is a rare autoimmune response that at its most intense can result in total, but usually temporary, paralysis and require use of a ventilator. It was a terrifying but important time. I learned how precious our health can be. I also learned how vital breathing is. I watched my oxygen sats on the monitor and breathed deeply. Sometimes they dropped and it felt scary. When I was able to stay calm and centered, I could breathe in fully and my numbers would...

Dream of the Heart

dreams, heart

I have just awakened from a beautiful and insightful dream. In it, I was remembering how to ignite my heart, and how to make it feel love. My thoughts in the dream were loud. I was speaking them and living within them. "It can be harder as an adult to feel love," I said in the dream. "Life can take over! But once I remember to connect to my heart and feel love, it is so much stronger than it was when I was a child." The love in my heart was so strong at the end of this dream. It was burning. Then I awoke. I hope that dream is helpful for you to hear! Especially since becoming a mom I've found that I can get swayed into...
