Bankruptcy - a word that for many causes chills down the spine, a churning deep in the belly and the desire to run and hide! It’s a word that is laden with judgements and labels, running the gamut of questionable intelligence to suspect morals; leaving this a topic that is often shunned and left to languish to the very last moment possible. Not only do ... Continue Reading >>
Agitations
Breaking: Bone and Bondage
"When I am ‘in’ my mind, it cannot be hacked. When I am ‘out’ of my mind, some other can easily mimic the sound of my own voice and leave me thinking that I occupy that territory." It has been an interesting time. On December 12th, I broke a bone in my right shoulder. In that instant, movement became excruciatingly painful, resulting in my ... Continue Reading >>
Memory Lane: Women Shaping Culture
I believe that the future of the world is in the hands of women. It’s in how we choose to move through our lives, and our connections and interactions with others. It’s in our ability to trust in the inherent genius of living, organic systems and how they unfold and evolve. It lies in our willingness and ability to trust in our fear and do it anyway! I ...

Wake Up Call….
January 13, 2018 will long be remembered as the day the State of Hawaii held its breath. Things are changing. The intensity and speed of that change presses us to reconsider how we make choices in our lives: Before acting, pause and connect to your inner cues. The intelligence of new thought and insight will be found in that pause. Let go of ... Continue Reading >>
Memory Lane: Choosing to Emerge
The start of a new year and the opportunity to pause... and make it count! It can be a daunting prospect: carving out space and time to focus 100% of your attention on yourself; choosing to leave no stone unturned in acknowledging, out loud, what you know already moves within. Not in the usual bits-and-pieces approach but in a concerted and wholistic ... Continue Reading >>
The More Things Change…
I originally wrote the article on which this post is based in 2011. I could have written it this morning. (The original article can be found here.) I find myself neither hopeful nor hopeless, but pensive... even relaxed... as I continue to trust that I am, always have been and will continue to be the creator of my own experience and its corresponding ... Continue Reading >>
Memory Lane: Money, Self and Stuff
It’s that time of year, again. In a debt-driven economy dependent on perpetual consumption, December brings with it the biggest retail event of the year! Purported to open our hearts, for many this is more likely the press to open our wallets in some effort to meet or exceed expectations too often shaped by advertising and marketing hype. Who amongst us ... Continue Reading >>
Yuval Harari on Humanity, Social media, AI and our future
https://youtu.be/HMU08VI3jPM On teaching our children: "I would invest in emotional intelligence because they would need a lot of mental balance in order to cope with a very hectic and constantly changing world. Nobody knows how to teach EI on a massive scale. " I agree with the essential need to teach our children EI and I disagree with the notion ... Continue Reading >>
The Sharp Edge of Potential: CRISPR/Cas9
If you have ever doubted that the human body is a device, the following conversation may well press a few buttons for you. The following is taken from the work of Sam Harris (PhD in neuroscience): In this episode of the Waking Up podcast, Sam Harris speaks with Jennifer Doudna about the gene-editing technology CRISPR/Cas9. They talk about the biology of ... Continue Reading >>
Memory Lane: The Edge of Potential
Strong (think: power), intense (think: passion) and definite (think: purpose) - when directed at creating what we want in our lives rather than fending off or pressing away what we do not want in our lives - take on a flow that supports the creation of Life rather than its destruction; awakens others to that potential in themselves; and leaves behind a trail ... Continue Reading >>
Memory Lane: Designing Your Life
I remember well, those days when I believed that I had to plan my life; to carefully map out the trajectory of my evolution rather than simply trust the process of my own evolving. I remember well the degree of detachment that was required in order for me to be able to do what was required; to stay the course of my own intention; and to make the sacrifices ... Continue Reading >>
Memory Lane: Violence and Silence
In my world of engaging with women who are seeking to regain their footing in their own lives, I have become mindful of two critical components that contribute immensely to keeping women in check: the first is silence and the second is isolation. One side of these is the need that women have to become silent, in an attempt to avoid reaction and diminish ... Continue Reading >>
The Guy McPherson Factor: The Fluidity of Truth
Woke up about an hour ago with the notion of ’truth’ flapping in the breezes of my mind. One thing I have come to trust: truth is flexible and depends on our intention and point of reference. I’ve always found ‘truth’ to be such an interesting concept. Before I can come to truth, I have to experience a perception. And before that perception can be ... Continue Reading >>
Memory Lane: Women and Leadership
Over my 25+ years of working with others, I’ve come to conclude that expressions of, interpretations of and experiences of ‘leadership’ are deeply intimate and personal. For those with whom I engage in a more protracted exploration, they inevitably come to this simple observation: what is common to their definition of leadership is not the words they use or ... Continue Reading >>
Memory Lane: The Line in the Sand
Consider how many times in your life you have stopped yourself from saying out loud what moves inside you; how many times you have said 'yes' to something when you wanted to say ‘no’; how frequently you have pulled back from the edge of your own thinking to, yet again, comply with the thoughts of those around you. Stop for a moment and allow yourself to ... Continue Reading >>
Acceleration: The Forces of Change
I do not know your story I do not know your dreams or visions I do not know your limitations or constraints I do not know your hidden super power I do not know your desire to become What I do know is your Soul. I do know the Self that is you because I too, am that Self. Although we appear separate at the expression through body into this world, at ... Continue Reading >>
Memory Lane: Out of the Shadows
Are we ever really too busy to consider the quality of our own lives? As much as we can find ourselves caught up in the daily routines that form part of living our lives, our willingness and ability to stop... take a breath... and ask ourselves: “Am I living the life I desire? Or am I living the life I think I’m stuck with?” - is no more difficult than ... Continue Reading >>
Memory Lane: Penetrating Cultural Coma
As much as I am committed to engaging in the creation of a meaningfully sustainable life for mySelf, I am mindful that my life unfolds within a larger collective of others. My life is touched by and affected by the perspectives and choices of others, that include my family and friends; my colleagues and clients; and the cumulative impact of those whose faces ... Continue Reading >>
Memory Lane: Inviting Insights and Discoveries
How else might I choose to live my life, today? Such a simple question and yet - as one choice becomes the platform for the next - one that holds the power to profoundly transform our lives, our world and how we choose to engage that world! In many places around the world, the end of one year brings with it traditions that invite us to ponder the new ... Continue Reading >>
Memory Lane: Penetrating Cultural Coma
Life unfolds within a larger collective of others. Our unique and individual lives are touched by and often shaped by the perspectives and choices of others that include family and friends; colleagues and clients; and the cumulative impact of those whose faces we may never see and yet, their choices can shape the context within which we find our lives ... Continue Reading >>
Memory Lane: Chaos and Order
You’d have to be living in a cave on a mountain top not to notice the pace at which things in our world are shifting. Whether on the social, economic or environmental front, news reports - and our personal experience - are telling us that the world is changing in ways and at a pace that make it impossible for us not to pay attention! What is that larger ... Continue Reading >>
Climate Change: 4th Level Collapse
From a CODE Model™ perspective, I look at the world I share with more than 7,000,000,000 other humans (not to mention all of the other expressions of Life, in its many, varied and mesmerizing forms) and I know that we, as a species, are at the precipice of 'evolve or die'. What I also see is that we are in the throes of a 4th level collapse, with 2nd ... Continue Reading >>
Memory Lane: Finding Your Voice
In my close-to 30 years of working with women, far fewer women actually don’t know what they want than there are women who know… and just won’t tell. That’s a tough one: when you think that others don’t want you to have what you want or that others would turn away from you if they really knew the truth of who you are. And yet, in all those years of working ... Continue Reading >>
Memory Lane: Cherishing After Divorce
We get divorced for a reason. If we were not able to work out our differences together, not likely that we’ll be able to work them out through our children! And yet, how many of us turn away from owning our own internal states; turn away from taking responsibility for our inner world and corresponding outer turmoil, allowing our children to be lost to the ... Continue Reading >>
Easy Listening: Women Awakening – Part 6/6
To recap (short version) from the first post: To assist you along the way, you can find visual aids for each of the wall charts referenced in the audio material on the WEL-Systems Institute website. Scroll down to about the middle of the page to access links to a PDF of each wall chart. This final week's conversation is intended to offer an experience ... Continue Reading >>
Memory Lane: Money and Mind
Over time, money has come to be generally accepted as the currency of choice; as the preferred medium of exchange that allows us to bring into our lives that which, without currency, we believe we could not experience. Truth is, rare is the person or the moment when we stop... take a breath... and ask ourselves: Is money the only currency? How else ... Continue Reading >>
Easy Listening: Women Awakening – Part 5/6

Scroll down to about the middle of the page to access links to a PDF of each wall chart. This week's conversation is an invitation for you to re-awaken and ... Continue Reading >>
Memory Lane: The Great Daring
In truth, incremental change is much easier for us to manage. With those tiny steps - inching ourselves forward from one day to the next - those around us are able to watch and listen, tracking for our movement and potentially, adjusting accordingly as we go. Through this process, even though we may be changing, we continue to be experienced by others as ... Continue Reading >>
Memory Lane: PTSD
There are moments in our lives that change us. Not just our thoughts or our philosophies but our body - the very tissue of our being - is deeply, profoundly and instantly transformed into something that we had no previous knowledge of and no desire for. The subsequent and seemingly permanent effect of this tissue transformation is that our lives are no ... Continue Reading >>
Easy Listening: Women Awakening – Part 3/6
To recap (short version) from the first post: I’ve decided to share the full experience of that ‘Women Awakening’ event (Volume 3). The related sound files will unfold over the coming six weeks, each part approximately 20-30 minutes in length. These are intended to offer you food for thought; and if you’re willing, a gateway to a renewed trust in the truth ... Continue Reading >>
Do No Harm
5:00 am and the message from the birds is clear: my day has begun. I stand and breathe in my morning; expansive view of the Gatineau Hills from my 8th floor window; observing the rising sun just out of my line of sight, yet evidence of its movement fills the morning sky with those soft pink and grey hues that mark the start of another day. The unusual ... Continue Reading >>
Memory Lane: Children and Potential
One thing I’ve learned over more than 25 years of working with others - and from being a Mom,myself - is that we can be very touchy about our kids! Not so much because it’s really about any particular child but much more because as parents, we so strongly identify ourselves by who our children have become. Are my kids well-behaved, doing well in school, ... Continue Reading >>
Truths, Perceptions and Choices
Everything is true somewhere, at some time, for someone - not because the content is ‘real’ or ‘accurate’ but because perception makes it so. Now prone to being awake and ready to start my day anytime after 4:00 am, I am also prone to thinking in sound bytes rather than complete sentences. Even within myself, I am noticing that I explore my own thoughts ... Continue Reading >>
Memory Lane Mondays!
Because the WEL-Systems® body of knowledge is intended to open a gateway to a paradigm change, the information that has developed over the years is at a level of thinking that bypasses strategies and behaviours. What that means is that who I ‘am’ at the first reading or listening, may not be who I have become at the opportunity of the next. ... Continue Reading >>
The Future: Growing into Grace
Recently, I had the great joy and privilege of attending the wedding of my first-born son. They were engaged in the summer of 2015. Little did I know that I would spend the following months in the grip of frequent episodes of tears… welling up from somewhere so deep within me, I could not recognize the source. It was a puzzle for me, since I felt such joy ... Continue Reading >>
Starship: The Power of the Body
Over the last 30 years of working with others, some conversations have proven to be more significant in effecting rapid, profound and generative change; have stood out as more significant in terms of the essentials of accelerated evolution of consciousness. Now, as the lives of so many of my amazing colleagues are filled with the joy of co-creating ... Continue Reading >>
Embracing Futility
Recently, I made the decision to make the 20-CD 'Decloaking and Living Authentically' audio material (recorded live from a 5-day intensive) available to a general audience. I did that, after much consideration, because I believe we need to do much more than change what we do or how we think. We need to redefine WHAT we believe ourselves to be. The ... Continue Reading >>
The Pause….and the Redirect
When I sold my house in the summer of 2015, little did I know that I was letting go of ‘ownership’ of so much of the familiar in my life. I gave myself to the end of 2016 to explore, discover and consider what ‘retirement’ might mean for me. That concept (for me, from the French ’se retirer’ - meaning, to remove myself; to pull myself away from or out of) ... Continue Reading >>
Whispers from Within: Day 10
Good morning! Here I am on Day 10: The first day of the rest of my life. I think of the completion of this cycle of enquiry as the end of a long, steady and deep inhalation… of my Self. Now, I pause… and in this continuing cycle… I enter into the long, slow and deep exhalation as I choose to live my life as an expression of the integration that now ... Continue Reading >>
Whispers from Within: Day 9
Good morning! Day 9: the penultimate, in this journey of inner exploration. We are almost complete, ever mindful that we can begin anew anytime we choose. There is never an end - only pauses along the way to live out discoveries and re-awaken the desire for yet another deep dive into the unclaimed possibilities. How does it go? The purported Chinese ... Continue Reading >>
Whispers from Within: Day 8
Good morning! Inside myself, the ’tone’ of my own enquiry has shifted. As I move from what I know or have known, to what I know I don’t know, there is a sense of being set adrift in a weightless environment. Perhaps this is what a walk in space might feel like. I am more present to the moment; more in the ’now’ as I release myself from searching and ... Continue Reading >>
Whispers from Within: Day 7
Good morning! In my own life and with others, I became aware of patterns and how these patterns, themselves, become the very fabric of our existence; aware that they come to shape our very lives into what we come to call ‘reality’. These patterns come to be relied upon as not only the right thing and the appropriate thing, but the essential thing for our ... Continue Reading >>
Whispers from Within: Day 6
Good morning! It has been the longest 5 days of my life! :) Great surges of insight! Deep undulations, reminiscent of those from so long ago. Churning and swirling and twisting….. constant movement of the Soul, as is to be expected when a Great Journey is undertaken. And in this moment, calm. This is what it must be to enter into the eye of a ... Continue Reading >>
Whispers from Within: Day 5
Good morning, All! Today, I feel the wrenching. And the truth is: sometimes, when something has been fixed for so long, the wrenching is required for it to be dislodged. A very, very old wave activates as I notice an inner voice speaking to me, in the timbre and cadence of a much younger me, chastising that I have gone too far. That I have asked too ... Continue Reading >>
Whispers from Within: Day 4
Good morning! As I settle comfortably at the keyboard… first coffee of the day gratefully within easy reach… I am mindful of the sounds of a new day beginning, as they stream through the open window behind me. The light of dawn and dusk hold a special promise. Light softened yet still allowing for all to be seen, there is a peace as the harsh light of day ... Continue Reading >>
Whispers from Within: Day 3
Good morning, All! The dawning of Day 3 and already, it feels as if we have been here for weeks! Clearly, I am in the right place, at the right time and with the right people. With every thought you share, my own expand. The awakening of internal cues is palpable. As I read, I am aware of the great courage that it takes to dive so quickly into the ... Continue Reading >>
Whispers from Within: Day 2
Good morning! An earlier start to my day, today, as I am off to Carleton U for a lecture series on astronomy. Yup, not much to do with anything I usually do, and I’m loving it! What great joy to read your insights about yourself, revealed and shared! I have long known - for myself and in my life - that in the choice between willing and able, willing is ... Continue Reading >>
One of My (Many!) Moments of Truth…
The Women Gathering retreat - at the recent Fairmont Chateau Montebello in November - has left me increasingly curious about my/your/our future. (Stay tuned: Blog post to come re the discovery of a 'Free Fall' exploration and its impact.) Much has stayed with me from that experience, not the least of which is the thought, below: We are rapidly ... Continue Reading >>
When Our Illusions Collapse: Do they make a sound? (Part 1/3)
I grew up in the post-war, baby-booming ‘golden days’ of cookie-cutter housing projects, rayon blouses, muscle cars and the infinite miracle of plastic. That war-to-end-all-wars was over and it was time to build; to create and invent; to design high-consumption, mass-expression lives. The feeding frenzy went on for decades… imbedding in two generations ... Continue Reading >>
Change or Die!
I am having one of those moments when I am either seeing polar opposites or am seeing in polar opposites. I am so mindful of the deep, urgent and massive desire that exists for an acceleration in the evolution of consciousness of the masses. The outcomes we are co-creating as a global collective are moving rapidly down a track that will kill us all. Gaia ... Continue Reading >>
Women, Breast Cancer, Food and Men
The entangled threads of my own thoughts tug at notions of women and leadership; women and breast cancer; the need women seem to have to apologize when not agreeing or when finding something lacking; food and its stranglehold on women and their bodies; and last, but most definitely not least, women and men. Were these neatly laid out in some pattern or ... Continue Reading >>
Urgency vs Panic
A few days ago, I had the opportunity to spend time with some women who are new to me, in my life. I have become accustomed to spending time with people who know me well through abundant personal contact. I sometimes forget that what I intend to say and what others hear, don’t always match. Such was my discovery during this recent conversation. As we ... Continue Reading >>
Losing Faith in Organized Religion
Once again, allegations of institutionalized child abuse perpetrated by the clergy of the Catholic Church fill the news. This time, Europe is awakening to what we for all too long have not wanted to see or hear or know as a truth in our own experiences: we are a species that cannibalizes our young. I've written about this in many other times and spaces. ... Continue Reading >>
Half measures = Whole Life ?
I woke up this morning to this thought: half measures will never get me a whole life. Half a marathon will never get me across the finish line. Half a recipe will never get me a pan of brownies. Half way will never get me to Hawaii! Half of my attention will never get me a whole understanding. How many times in my life have I longed for... strived ... Continue Reading >>
When does virtue become a vice?
I am so mindful of reactions to and language around those moments when women are perceived to be less than 'patient' and 'understanding' and 'caring'. What exactly does that mean? In a recent chat with a friend and colleague, the thought that kept coming into my awareness was about 'patience is a virtue'... leading me to wonder: when does a virtue become ... Continue Reading >>
Bullying
I read Tanya's posting and had to move away from it. As I 'heard' the small voice of her son, torrents of memories flooded back into my awareness of a time, not-so-long-ago, when her voice would have been my own. Although the difference would have been in my son being the one in the schoolyard being harassed/bullied/harmed, both would have been victims. I ... Continue Reading >>
My emerging future…
"Eleven different climate zones generate everything from lush rain forests to arid deserts, black sand beaches to snow-capped mountaintops. The Big Island is Hawaii’s biggest playground." I now better understand what so pulls me to the Big Island of Hawaii. In many ways, I 'feel' just like that! Over my lifetime, some have delighted in but most have been ... Continue Reading >>
Not knowing IS the way
There are moments (like this one) when I realize that I have not chosen an easy path. Even as I write those words, I know I have not chosen (as if it could have been anything else!) but have simply unfolded in the direction that has now become my life. Something inside presses me to make sense of this for the benefit of others and yet, I decline to follow ... Continue Reading >>
Pandemic
It's been lingering in the background for some time. In the last few days, its vibration has amped up significantly as Mexico and other countries 'brace for impact' of what many have long intended and been waiting for. It would be easy to tell a long story about this; to spend time and typing and 'pages' in proffering a perspective that would encompass ... Continue Reading >>
The desire to pounce
The 6-day ‘Manifesting a Meaningful Life’ experience is THE conversation that lights me up! Big! Bold! Boundless and formless! Edgy, provocative, compelling… not because it’s a pathway but because it’s the unsettled, feral essence of our potential being. It is not that we move through those conversations, it is more that we trek… and climb the rock ... Continue Reading >>
My Dilemma of the Terrible Embrace
I continue to be held in the terrible embrace of my two worlds : the one I have lived and the one I know is waiting for me, to be lived. I see it played out in the inner turmoil and tension I am experiencing around the notion of decloaking; around the notion of ‘being silenced' vs ‘being silent' - one imposed from the outside, in, making me a helpless, ... Continue Reading >>
Density, intensity and manifestation
It happened on Saturday and has been rumbling around inside me since then. A seemingly harmless Valentine's Day breakfast among friends - and my life is changed. I arrived with a sense of agitation, having spent about 20 hours editing the soon-to-be ready for production, multi-CD set on 'CODE Model Coaching™ - Part 2: The Awakened Self'. Having ... Continue Reading >>
The Audacity of Being Present
I've been reading the blogs and emails of some of the women I spend time with. I've been chatting and listening to the direction their lives have taken since our last time together. There is a theme emerging and I believe it is greatly important to pay attention to it. The theme is this: the audacity of daring to claim our own lives! The audacity of ... Continue Reading >>
So many forks…. so many roads!
I am all over the map! Not a day goes by that I am not mindful of the degree to which my life is unscripted... without rituals and routines... a constant invitation for me to stop and wonder: how does the godforce that I AM choose to live - in this day, in this moment, in this breath? Without exception, the moment always comes with a choice to be ... Continue Reading >>
Get off my holodeck!
Wow... two in one day! I really do have to stop listening to the radio..... I was driving to pick up my son and was listening to CBC's 'AphCanada' - which I found very disturbing today since this same son intends to enlist and join Canada's military. I find myself wondering... maybe I should have let them play with guns, all those years ago. But I ... Continue Reading >>
Invitations to greatness
There are always bumps in the road. Just how dull would it be if the road were always smooth, without any twists or turns to test our attention and our skill.... to test our willingness and ability... to own both the destination and the journey? I'm one of the lucky ones. In my life, I cross paths with more genius women than likely my fair share. ... Continue Reading >>
The forces that shape culture
I really must stop listening to the radio when I'm in the car. Will I ever not have something to say???? Today's topic was young offenders and the impact (or lack thereof) of longer sentences. An interview with a criminologist spoke to the degree to which more and longer incarceration periods were not achieving the outcome of reducing crime rates ... Continue Reading >>
For the love of dancing
I am a dancer. I have no memory of anything other than loving the movement of body, connected and engaging in flow, with or without music. I remember moments of walking down the street, being present to the vibration of every cell in my body, as it engaged in the flow of getting from here to there; vibrating to, responding to and dancing with the sounds of ... Continue Reading >>
Breathing is good….
Since returning from the Emerging Futures: Entrepreneurial Women retreat, I'm noticing that I can hardly breathe! From one day to the next, I catch myself holding my breath - time and again - and wonder what that's all about! Typically, breathing comes easily and effortlessly, bringing with it a sense of the vast Space that I AM for my own evolution. But ... Continue Reading >>
Emerging Species, Women and Pollination
I spent last week with a small group of women, talking... about many things, all of which were indicative of but a sliver of their own potential... and mine. (Visit the Women Gathering blog for more about the week.) I was deeply moved by my time with them. I witnessed terror and courage; grief, sadness and loss sharing space with determination and hope. ... Continue Reading >>
Radical, you say???
That we change is not what separates us from the rest of the world. HOW we change, is. We are not the first (and likely will not be the last) who claim to have found a way to accelerate their personal evolution; to create profoundly meaningful lives for ourselves. Given that I've been in the ‘personal growth' world both as a participant and as a ... Continue Reading >>
Taking it back!
Another one of those moments... driving to work listening to the CBC. This time, I caught the tail end of a conversation about how difficult it is becoming (at least, in Ontario) for people to find a family physician. The conversation also explored the characteristics of the patients that doctors don't want (my words, not theirs....that would be much too ... Continue Reading >>
Lives Changing
I decided a long time ago that what lights me up - what makes my life worth living - is engaging with others for lives to change. This came profoundly into my awareness today as I listened to a CBC report on babies being abandoned at birth in some far-away country because these were 'incest babies' (babies conceived as a result of rape by a family member) ... Continue Reading >>
Sainthood and Martyrdom: It’s a girl thing
I spent time today with a woman I consider to be a good friend. We've known each other for about 6 years, and yet it feels like just the slightest brush of time. If you offered me money to pick one thing about her that I don't like, I'd be hard pressed to come up with something. When I think of her or engage with her, my experience is always one of ... Continue Reading >>
Gregg Braden, Bruce Lipton, Lynn Andrews and so many others
There are many people in the world who are devoting their lives to helping human beings find their way to more expansive and authentic expression of 'the divine' in their lives. My personal favourites include people like Lynn Andrews, Bruce Lipton, Candace Pert, Joseph Chilton Pearce and many, many others. Each of them, in his/her own way, is offering an ... Continue Reading >>
Waiting…
Sometimes, silence says it all. I think of those times as moments in the void; as small movements and ripplings in the womb of potential; as my world shapeing itself without striving or effort, without intention or design; gaining strength by being quiet, being still and letting go. I seem to be in my greatest time of l'lessons learned'. As strange as it ... Continue Reading >>
Growing pains
I've been living with chaos in my life, off and on, for a lot of years (and I know it is often no easy task). As powerful as a WEL-Systems® approach is, and as deeply meaningful as it is to me in the living of my own life, I had become restless about it and who I was becoming. I care deeply for the people I engage with; and as much as I delight in their ... Continue Reading >>
A new breed of woman?
I started my day with telephone and email conversations with three women, one of whom I’ve known for years and the other two much more recent entries onto the holodeck of my experience. Each conversation left me filled with deep love for who each of these women is: full of wonder and willingness to engage; unsure and moving forward with trepidation and ... Continue Reading >>
Illusion and reality
As much as it's always great to get away, it's equally great to be home! I just spent time at Disneyworld in Florida. Interesingly, I saw as many adults without children as I did those with! I also saw more metaphors for living than I had noticed on the last trip to Fantasyland. I was very aware of distinctions between 'illusion' and 'reality', never ... Continue Reading >>
The vibration of urgency!
I'm feeling more 'prickly' than usual, today. Not quite sure what that's all about AND my body is telling me to pay close attention to what is now in flow. My world has been stirred up by the recent gathering of women at the Women Awakening event; by recent blog entries from Anita, and Amy and Marie ; and by my subsequent posting to the Women Gathering ...
