The Energy of You Volume XX Issue #14 Hi Reader, I recently returned from a quick getaway to the Cayman Islands (my favorite place to unwind) to do some planning and writing, only to feel like a hamster on a wheel. Lately, I’ve been racing the clock—and losing. My to-do list seems to multiply overnight, and focus? That’s been off wandering somewhere. I’m finding myself feeling time-starved. There are more "to-dos" than hours in the day. Things are just taking longer to get done. But the...

The Energy of You Volume XX Issue #12 Hi Reader, The month has been a whirlwind of activity, yet I don't feel like I've gotten much done. A growing to-do list and seemingly fewer hours to do it in had me a little spinny. I could blame it on the recent eclipse, but there's more to it than that. A few weeks ago, I shared thoughts on the energy of the collective consciousness (you can catch up here). If you’re not familiar with the term, think of it as the shared beliefs, emotions, energy, and...

Volume XX Issue# 8 Hi Reader, The time change last week really knocked my sleep cycle off. How about you? I have been in the energy healing world for over four decades; a lot has changed(and a fair bit has not). I practice a distance healing called WebWork and have done a number of informal research studies with hundreds of participants, enough to know it's effective. Yet, some still consider it woo-woo. I would venture that, in time, energy healing will become part of our health and...

Volume XX Issue# 5 Hi Reader, We have been having a fair bit of rain this week, perfect for curling up with a book and a cup of tea, currently Babylonia by Costanza Casati, or rewatching Ted Lasso for the feel-good vibe. With Valentine's Day this week, looking into the heart chakra would be timely. Leaning into love is a needed balm at the moment. Energetically speaking, the heart chakra connects the lower three chakras with the upper three chakras. It's where emotional attachment and love in...

Volume XX Issue# 2 Hi Reader, The first full week of 2025 was a busy one. It had me thinking about foundations and strength. When life gets chaotic, leaning into your foundation helps. If it's strong, it can help calm the chaos. Chakra work is a core practice for me. Generally, it doesn't take much time and can easily be woven into a daily routine. The spotlight is on the root chakra this month. Checking in on and strengthening your energetic foundation is a worthwhile effort. The Root of It...

Volume XX Issue# 1 Hi Reader, Happy 2025! I started the year with a bug that had me on the couch for a few days and a lingering cough. Very unusual for me, I'm usually pretty healthy and get a bit cranky when I'm under the weather. I'm happy to say I'm feeling better and decidedly less cranky. At the start of a new year, many of us take a look at what we want to change or create. It's a good time to check on boundaries and the ability to align with your values and desires. In my work with...

Volume XIX Issue# 42 Hi Reader, It's been getting chilly here, prepping me for my trip to France/Germany/Austria/Hungary in a few weeks to visit the Christmas Markets. I had to buy a winter coat for the trip ❄️. With the days shorter and nights longer I find myself a little more reflective. I definitely lean more toward optimism- I usually believe the universe has my back (and it does mostly😎 ). I was working on some of my research and thought it was a good time to look at mindset. Your...

Volume XIX Issue# 41 Hi Reader, I’m someone who really values my peace. I work at it - meditation, breathwork, energy clearing, time in nature and I love me a good book. My peace has been shaky the last couple of weeks so much divisiveness and a stress-filled election have been challenging. We’re also entering the holiday season, and with the turkey, family gatherings, and gift-giving, there is inevitably some stress. When I started exploring holistic health, Jon Kabat Zinn was pioneering his...

Volume XIX Issue# 40 Hi Reader, Halloween is this week. My neighborhood is a fan favorite for trick-or-treating. We get hundreds of kids. It’s so much fun seeing all ages get dressed up and having fun. When we first moved here a neighbor warned me to have lots of candy. I expressed my delight (my previous neighborhood had zero trick-or-treaters) she chuckled and said “Oh you’ll get your fill here.” That first year I ran out of candy in an hour and had to shut off my porch light. Kids still...
