Love and compassion do not drain us, they deepens us. Are you okay with going deeper… and expanding your heart? For close to 3 years, I volunteered in Palliative Care at my (then) local hospital. We were instructed to serve the patients – help them with what they might need/want. The medical staff took...
When I was a young girl, I was fascinated with King Tut and ancient Egypt. It’s interesting how the areas we are attracted to in life often have a lot of relevance later on. In ancient Egypt, Osiris was the biggest god of the underworld. When people died, their hearts (which were believed to be the...
Recently, I heard a woman expressing her heartbreak around her mother’s passing. It was difficult enough to lose her mother, but a lot of pain was coming from the fact that she was not present when her mother passed. She had stepped away to get something to eat and her mom passed while she...
Well, we are beginning a new year and I have to say that 2010 was filled with a lot of ……… experiential learning, so while it was NOT a particularly easy year (some of it really sucked), it was tasted, lived and learned. I am thinking of calling 2010 my year of NO (…and,...

In the process that Ti does, “FutureVisioning,” we were asked to imagine ourselves into...
A comment from Neale Donald Walsch’s daily insight has highlighted an important phrase to remember and also reminded me of the growth I have experienced in the last few years. What phrase is that? Well, it is… You are not your story. A long time ago, I had a great loss in my life...
While I was driving the other day, I happened to catch an Tapestry interview on CBC (Canadian Broadcasting Corporation) with Jill Bolte-Taylor and, even though I knew of her experience from a previous TED talk, it became clear to me that what happened to her could fall into that etheric, secret law of attraction...
I believe, in this life, we are meant to build bridges in this world, bridges to each other, through our hearts. We go through our lives and most of us end up with a few protective walls or with losses, wounds or scars that run deep. It’s no wonder there is so much conflict...
At some point in our lives, most of us have stopped to wonder…”Who am I?” I don’t mean what you do, if you have a six pack or knew Tupac, who you’re married to or who you slept with, if you had a zillion-dollar mansion, tons of toys, and 24Kt gold faucets… I mean...
