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…..
I did a stupid thing February 6, Tuesday. I went to Costco and lifted a 35-pound cat litter container into my cart. I felt ok until the next morning when I bent down to grab a saucepot for our oatmeal. I felt an immediate pain across my back and knew I was in trouble. I got down on the floor and did a yoga posture called child’s pose taking long, slow deep breaths for about 5 minutes. That didn’t help much…..
With the help of Balboa Press marketing team I created a Facebook page for my book “Messages from the Afterlife – Memoirs of a Hospice Nurse.” I learned how to blog and post these blogs on my Facebook page, Facebook news feed and my Twitter account. The holidays were very busy for me and I did not keep up with checking my page for notifications from people visiting my page. The other day I took the time to…..
I am glad the holidays are over but I still enjoy them every year. I have a love/hate relationship with them. The part I love is watching my three grandchildren’s excitement about Christmas, complete with it’s twinkling lights, Santa and beautifully wrapped gifts under the Christmas tree. I also had the pleasure of being with two of my grandkids in Dallas at the end of November as they sat on Santa’s lap relaying their Christmas gift list. I…..
Last weekend I assisted Wendy Treynor, PHD for the I Can Heal retreat at 1440 Multiversity in Scotts Valley, CA, which is in Santa Cruz County. The workshop was about going within to find your own truth. We witnessed amazing spiritual breakthroughs. It was an honor and privilege to witness their revelations and growth. Wendy and I left @5:30 am on Thursday arriving at the campus around 2:30 pm after a few stops for food, gas and…..
