The best way to stop a destructive habit or behavior is to simply stop doing it. Yes, that may be easier said than done, but it is a good place to start.
Whatever you are doing that is causing you pain and suffering, hurting others, keeping you stuck, affecting your job performance, ruining your relationships, or damaging your body. . . STOP IT!
Ask yourself: Who is in control of me? Who controls my mind,...
I once heard a story about a man who went to visit a friend. While chatting outside, the man noticed his friend’s dog laying on the porch. Every once in awhile, the dog would let out a painful whine.
After a few minutes, the man remarked, “I can’t help but notice that something seems to be wrong with your dog.”
“Oh,” replied the friend, “I think he’s laying on a nail.”

He prescribed a year’s supply and I took my daily dose, without question, for a year.
Little did I know that,...
In the early creation of this blog, I pondered and prayed for just the right logo to represent the intention of this website. I looked at hundreds of symbols and photos, but I just couldn’t quite commit to any of them. Then I saw the lotus flower and it totally appealed to me. I asked my daughter to look through dozens of possible logos that I had found. She responded just as I had....
Even after I had learned there was a “better way” of being, doing, and choosing for myself, there were still days when I felt beaten down, and a few where I questioned if maybe I was wrong about all this stuff.
One day, finding myself in the midst of circumstances that were not in my dreams, and certainly were not my passion, I wondered how I got there, and I began to feel my...
For the past seven years, I have had the privilege to meet with many individuals to facilitate healing energy work and personal empowerment coaching. It’s been joyful, amazing, enlightening, miraculous and a great privilege. At times, It has also been challenging, overwhelming, and, if I’m not careful, draining.
The techniques I’ve learned and use are powerful tools for releasing negative thoughts and energies as well as false and limiting beliefs.
The principles that have...
