We are in the wake of the magnificent worldwide Women's Marches. How amazing it was witnessing people all around the globe coming together as One. What a powerful example of Unity! Spiritual Healing promotes Unity in the microcosmic sense, one person at a time. A personal, inner experience, since...
The White Bird I was receiving a traditional spiritual reading from a shaman visiting from the jungles of Peru. We sat on the floor with an altar of bones, feathers, stones, and foreign objects between us. As he stared at the placement of each item I wondered, “What is he seeing?” All of a sudden...
A successful healer experiences and lives infinite teachings of Love. Love of self, love of one’s god - whatever that might be - and love of others. And our task, above all else, is to expand our client’s capabilities for love. To help them open their hearts to themselves so they can experience...
We recently completed the Spiritual Healing and the Human Soul Class, and I wish to honor my students. These women are exceptional people who are willing to go beyond self perceived limitations and boundaries and walk what I call a “two footed walk.” I believe much of the power of a spiritual...
Before I became re-infatuated with Peru, my dear friend, Emily and I co-led spiritual travel groups to the powerful ruins of Teotihuacan, Mexico. One trip was called "The Journey of the Four Petaled Flower.” I wrote a blog about it in 2012. It's timely and important for us to revisit the four...
A woman asked me to do a distant healing for her son, a young man I’m going to call Bob. She said he’s not the type of person who believes in my work and asked if I could do a healing anyway. I checked in with Bob’s higher self and got the ok. At every Healing Ceremony, I spend a good amount of...
When a woman becomes pregnant, transformational energy from the Source of Life creates a path for a spirit to enter her body and grow into a human being. This spirit is alive, conscious, and incarnates with purpose and intention. From the moment of conception and even before, it is able and...
I traveled in Peru for 10 weeks this summer with my dear friend, Salita. We were based in the Sacred Valley and spent time in many places including Machu Picchu, Cusco, Puno, Lake Titicaca, and the Q’ero village of Charkapata. If you read my last blog, Big Love and Health, you already know a...
I'm off to Peru for ten weeks on July 1. How lucky can I get? This trip was conceived in January by myself and my friend, Salita. Over the course of the months between then and now, I've had various thoughts about going and have actually re-chosen it a few times. I've even been to Peru and back...
We open a ceremony in front of the Pachamama stone, and I give them blessings for their journeys. They're ready to leave. I stand at the gateway of the caves and Huaynu Picchu (the tallest mountain at Machu Picchu) and watch them hike away on the old, Inka path. The rain is gently coming down, and...
I’ve been in Gold Beach, Oregon for the past ten days. My friends have a condo and offered it to me for a writing retreat. I love it here. The kitchen table sits opposite a long, rectangular expanse of window. At the center is a sliding glass door that opens on to a deck. And beyond the deck,...
"Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover." Mark Twain Dear Friends, I wish you a wondrous New Year,...
