May 3, 2016 Through my meditation practice, I’ve unexpectedly become acquainted with my clairvoyant side. It’s freaky and fancy! It is something we are all capable of doing.

April 26, 2016 Last week at this time, I was selling my house, getting ready to move into a new one and all was good. Then in an instant, it all changed. The buyers backed out and I was riding a roller coaster of emotions for days. I had so much fear, sadness, anger […]

January 5, 2016 Happy New Year!! I hope the year has started out just the way you wanted! In the past, my New Years resolutions have been very black and white. For example, I’m going to lose 10 pounds, I’m going to stop eating sweets, I’m going to work out 5 days a week, I’m […]
December 30, 2015 Tomorrow is New Year’s Eve and I still haven’t settled in after all the holiday fun and commotion. But, I’ve been spending some time thinking about how I want my life to look in 2016. Each time I think about it, I feel excited, but scattered, overwhelmed, and a little […]
