I like to tell my students that there is no push or pull in Reiki. It is divine, infinite and intelligent. You don't need to push it it go faster, you only need to get out of the way of it. Just like you don't need to push a waterfall, Reiki is always there, flowing [...]
only when all distractions have been lost, will you find what you are looking for. maybe learning to lose is the only way to win. maybe all that is needed is pinky promises, dinosaurs, and aquariums.
My son made a jarring statement in his usual matter of fact, six-going-on-seven tone, "Smart people don't ask for help. They don't NEED help. They can do it by themselves." Yikes! How did this thought sneak through? Of course, I know that he is in his big-boy-I-can-do-it-myself stage. And that he is likely parroting a [...]

Our hearts contain unlimited compassion, wisdom, and Divine connection. In our western philosophy, the mind has normally been equated with the brain. I have nothing against brains. [...]
March has been a turbo, jetpack of a month for me. The creative ideas have been coming fast and furious and I have willingly surrendered to the amazingness. YogaReiki (now a thing), meditation courses based on my book material, a new practitioner space, book writing, blogging, essential oil meditation, teaching Reiki. It is a really [...]
This morning, as I was enjoying my coffee, the fire alarm started blaring in the hallway in my condo.
