Whole Heart or Half Ass

There is truth in the reality that taking that first step towards achieving something you’ve always wanted is better than not taking that step.  Exercise mavens chant this mantra all the time.  ‘Just move’, ‘get off the couch’, ‘any effort is a good start’…. …Details

Strip It All Down

We build our identities through our experiences and the meaning we make from them.  And we assume…we decide….that the meaning we have made out of those experiences are like gravity.  They are the absolute truth and can be depended on in every case. …Details

What’s Best to Do

I’m commonly asked what a client’s life plan is or what they should do next.  They want to know what the next step is, what their spiritual goals are, to see everything laid out ahead of them.  And that would be comforting, in a way, because it takes the weight of responsibility off of us and takes away the uncomfortableness of the unknown. …Details

Contracts are Fluid

In physical life contracts are structured, formal ties between people or entities.  They are that way because we humans are full of free will, limited in our ability to see far into the cause and effect future that will come from our decisions now, and fluid in our decision making process so our minds change constantly. …Details

Body & Spirit

When talking about living a spiritual life and walking a medicine path, I’m reminded that it’s not necessarily a gradual thing.  Some people can transition their lives gently over time and look back wondering how they got from point A to point Z, but others get confronted with aspects of it as if someone had taken a spoon and stirred up their entire life and everything is now whirling around them uncontrollably.  …Details

Akashic Focus

I see a dichotomy in how people who work with the Akashics perceive that experience.  Some see it as a means to get answers to questions they have about themselves in this life.  Which, ironically, includes learning about their past lives. …Details

Absolute Thinking Isn’t

For some reason, all evidence to the contrary, we seem to think that the way our minds make meaning out of the world at any particular moment is truth and that our mind is somehow unaffected by inputs, external or internal. …Details

I want answers/I’m not listening

Some people go to readers (tarot/astrology/mediums/Akashic/numerologists….) with an open mind just wondering what they will hear.  Or they go seeking to know what is most important to know at that particular moment rather than selecting a subject to focus on.  Then there are others that have a question, but are interested to hear what might come as the answer. …Details
