We don’t usually judge our friends or acquaintances or peers because they need help with something or don’t know something or aren’t perfect at doing something. At least not the first hundred times. 🙂 After 100 we tend to get judgmental but I think it might be warranted in some cases. However, most people are…
DetailsI’ve been thinking about mirrors. Mirrors as metaphor, people as mirrors, mirrors as the enemy of all women, mirrors as an indicator that our vision is incredibly skewed, etc, etc. I use the concept of mirrors in working with my clients that are overly sensitive to the perspectives, opinions, and actions of others. I have…
DetailsI have always been frustrated by the hero’s journey as described by Joseph Campbell and by Greek mythology which seemed so out of touch with or misogynist about women and goddesses. I never understood or had any connection with the Persephone myth. It’s this really weird rape fantasy piece where she is the perfect and…
DetailsMany cultures see snake symbology as fire, the element that succinctly changes something from one form into another.

DetailsSo tonight a huge number of people around the globe will celebrate the ending of 2012 and the beginning of 2013. The date and time are arbitrary and do not sync with anything in nature or with our biorhythms, but what the heck. Time to release the old with all it’s worries and failures and…
DetailsOk, so looking back at 2012 can be a vision of woe seeing only what didn’t get done, what shouldn’t have been done, and all the failures that occurred or it can be a great way to check off the list of all the things you’ve achieved and a way to build the platform for…
DetailsIt’s something we all do and I’m not sure why, but there you are. We look back at the year that is ending, get out our favorite bludgeoning tool and start beating ourselves up for everything we didn’t get done, everything we should have done, everything we think we did wrong and everything we could…
DetailsThis year, let’s do something a little bit different. Instead of proclaiming New Year’s resolutions that are so lofty they can’t be reached and setting ourselves up for failure, let’s set up the New Year right. Let’s change the paradigm we’re using to think about 2013. Because most people when thinking about the New Year…
