Life Unfolding Beautifully

Joe Vitale reminds us to love all the work that we do, especially those projects that don’t seem to be very successful. By loving them (and clearing out the “stuff” we project onto them), they tend to thrive. Try it for yourself — you might be very surprised at the results!read more | [...]

A couple of years ago, I made a huge mistake.

It never ceases to amaze me that recurring themes happen in readings that I do for people who find my work over the web.
Healers (of whatever variety) are always working with clients whose issues parallel their own. The wounded healer is unable to incorporate the lessons that their clients bring them. I hope [...]

But it doesn’t feel like one.
I’m at Cafe Buli on Cedar Springs. I’m sitting on the banquette with a big pillow supporting my back. I can see out the window and watch the foot traffic (as well as the motorized version). It’s almost the same as being in Provincetown… almost.

We all have them. Those days that never seem to end. And that are just miserable.
Yesterday was probably the darkest day I’ve had in a while. In the midst of laundry and web design, I was feeling rather low. In fact, I got as down as I ever care to go. [...]
