I’m sitting in the back yard on my cabana. My husband left for a five-day men’s retreat in Vancouver and I was looking for some time alone. So, this is perfect and I get to do what I want when I want! I do miss our morning cuddles and pillow talk about how we slept and sharing our dreams. I also think about what it would be like to be single again. I’m sure I would like parts of…..
“We are never prepared for what we expect.” ~ James A. Michener My friend Mary and I embarked on a 2-day road trip adventure through Utah and Colorado before attending The Children of the Light Conference. I had skied in Utah and Colorado when I was in my 30’s and 40’s, but I never saw how beautifully green it is. I fell in love with the mountains all over again! Of course, we had to stop in at…..
I had so much fun at this retreat in wine country – Temecula. There was much laughter, hugs and love to go around. There is something very powerful about women coming together to share experience, strength and hope with one another through story telling. I was inspired by the courage and strength I witnessed throughout the weekend. The topic for our Saturday meetings was acceptance. One of my favorite sayings is “God grant me the serenity to accept the…..
Last weekend was very special. I had been on the wait list for a women’s retreat in Temecula for the past two years and finally there was an opening for me to attend. Because my husband and I are sharing our new 2016 Pruis 4, I needed a means to get to Temecula. I gave my husband two options – to have a romantic getaway Thursday night in Temecula and then drive me to the women’s retreat…..
As I look upon this Mother’s Day I reflect about being a mother and the joys and challenges that brings. I have been blessed with two wonderful sons who are now in their 40s. Sometimes it’s hard to believe I have boys that age since I don’t feel a day over 30, in my mind that is. My body is often another story. In spite of how unawaken I was in my earlier years, somehow I was able…..
Two weekends ago I had the great privilege of attending the Sat Nam Fest West that was held in Malibu Canyon. I loved the setting of being surrounded by abundant beautiful trees, which was a far cry from the dry, dusty desert of Joshua Tree where the Sat Nam Fest was held previously. I felt like I was being held in the womb of the Mother. This year my husband Gary was able to join me at…..
When I was 14-years-old I had a dream that my maternal grandmother died. I awoke and headed to our kitchen and found my mother in tears. She told me her mother died last night. I shared my dream and tried to comfort Mom. One year later I had another dream that my maternal grandfather was getting married. I told my mother about the dream and she scoffed at it until the next week when she found out her father was…..
I returned home yesterday around 9:30 pm from an amazing 10 day trip to Kono, Hawaii. There were 12 of us from different states all convening to share this special time at Banyan Tree Sanctuary with Shawn Gallaway as our trip facilitator and Jan Salerno guiding us to the dolphin pods. It feels like spiritual magic swimming with dolphins in the wild. They appear to love swimming along with us humans and love to show off their…..
My sister Andrea flew home 3 days ago after a weeklong visit and I miss her already. We got along so well and there was good energy throughout the entire week. She arrived late Thursday night so we just chilled in the living room until it was time to go to bed at 9pm. The next day my husband and I had a tax appointment the next morning, giving Andrea time to rest and have the house…..
Today I am so much better than I was 2 weeks ago. It’s been a long journey to healing and I’m glad I finally arrived with the help of 4 healing angels, my chiropractor, acupuncturist, massage therapist and cranio-sacral practitioner. My sister Andrea was scheduled to visit me for 5 days starting February 16. Two days before her visit I received a strong message from the universe that we needed to reschedule her visit. I woke up…..
