My Personal Creed

I believe that we are in the process of a profound shift into a new level of being human. We are moving from a condition of acting unconsciously from a stance of protection and separation into a condition of conscious connection that is changing everything about who we are and how we move through and …

Don’t Be Afraid to Love Too Much

I had an epiphany this morning, after several interesting conversations spanning the last week or two. I know that the times in my life that I struggle are the times when I am afraid to connect – and I just realized that I am actually saying that I have often been afraid to love too …

Why do we Resist Offering Appreciation?

Last week I wrote you a note about appreciation, and I got a tremendous amount of grateful feedback. Thank you to everyone who wrote to me. I promised to follow up with some thoughts about why we don’t offer more appreciation. Why do we resist giving pure appreciation without some sort of suggestion for correction …

Being Generous with Appreciation.

We’re about to enter the time of year when people start going a little crazy, going into debt in order to appear more generous with friends and loved ones at the holidays. Yes, it’s craziness.

Even if the thing you are creating is an exact replica of what you created yesterday, you are creating it again today. Your life today is the dream you dreamed of yesterday. The seed for …

Conscious choice, conscious change

  Do you wish you could feel more vibrantly alive? You are not alone! We are entering a proactive cycle the likes of which the world has never seen. We are no longer victims of our environment, requiring the force of a bad situation to move to a higher level. We can make the conscious …

What is going on here?

I spent much of my early life feeling deeply engaged and alive. As I grew older I became more and more closed down. I felt frustrated, depressed and unable to figure out what was wrong. There was nothing in outside circumstances that would point to anything other than a great life. But I kept swirling …

Courage and Love

  We are at a beautiful, epic and challenging time in human evolution. I feel sure we are crossing the threshold to a level of conscious connection that is going to change everything in our world profoundly and beautifully. And, as we can all see, it’s far from a smooth transition.   Part of each …
