I recently had an email exchange with a delightful young woman I have come to cherish. As I read her words, it occurred to me that the past continued to be the context within which the ability to choose had become 'frozen' in the face of imagined consequences. So, with that awareness in mind, I offered her a different perspective from which to consider ... Continue Reading >>

Reboot: What’s important to you about being alive?
I originally posted this line of enquiry in January 2020 - and some things just don't go stale. The pursuit of a meaningful life demands an intentional, focused and regular exploration of that which lives within. The invitation for a more authentic and expansive expression of our Being to unveil itself to us cannot be overestimated in its impact and ... Continue Reading >>
Voices Rising
I'm really getting the twists and turns of this 'retirement' thing! Have to admit: I am settling in nicely. Now a first-time Gramma (with the most adorable Little Human in the world within easy smooching distance!), I greatly appreciate the pace of my life as well as the proximity to all that is meaningful for me, within it. And right at the top of that ... Continue Reading >>
Taking Ownership of a New Year
Growth in consciousness doesn’t depend on the will of the intellect or its possibilities but on the intensity of the inner urge. (Egyptian proverb) ======================== January 1, 2019. Today is likely a more meaningful day than most to declare: "Today, is the first day of the rest of my life!" I could give you the long version of the long story ... Continue Reading >>
Discovery: Free Access to CD 1
“True teaching is not an accumulation of knowledge; it is an awakening of consciousness which goes through successive stages.“ (Egyptian Proverbs - Luxor Temple) =================================== Soon, I will be launching a new website for the WEL-Systems Institute that will reflect what I have long known to be true: No one can want something for you ...

Incomplete (yet meaningful) thoughts!
Sometimes, it just lands a bullseye. It. The proverbial point of no return. The moment of acquisition of clarity. The great and memorable flash of insight that - in a breath! - changes a world… and a life. The more untethered I become to matter, the less matter holds together as a ‘fact’ or ‘truth’. As I gain distance and it fades into the background, ... Continue Reading >>
Death: Vibration of the Unspeakable
This exploration is a fuzzy one. It is disjointed, lurching from one thought to the next. As I begin, I have no idea where it will end. I only know that now that is not the time to distrust a process of Life that has been there for me for the last 40 years. As I begin, I know it will take me where I need to go. For many, many years, I have focused my ... Continue Reading >>
Deep Dive: Day 10 – The Next Inhalation
Here’s what I have discovered about myself in this 10-day writing process. It is clear to me that I am here: To agitate. I have no memory of ever being other than that as an expression of Being. Even in the innocence of no intention, simply being my Self was agitating to those around me. So be it. To leave no conversation unengaged. Whether it is ... Continue Reading >>
Deep Dive: Day 9 – Living with Amnesia
Today is Day 9 of 10. A sense of relief. Like the horse heading back to the barn at the end of a long day. A sense of peace, as this leg of the journey comes to an end; and a sense of the unearthed provocation that I know awaits. In my experience, it is impossible to ask questions without knowing intuitively that in doing so, new (and often, bigger) ... Continue Reading >>
