“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.

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 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…..
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…..
I just returned home from a week long healing women’s retreat in Tuscany, Italy. We had a fabulous group of 8 women on this retreat and stayed in an amazing villa in the country, which was breathtakingly beautiful. There were 4 private bedrooms upstairs with a private baths and 3 bedrooms on the main floor. I needed to move beyond my fears about spending money on myself even though I had received a small inheritance from my…..
