The Energy of You Volume XX Issue #29 Hi Reader, I picked up a New York Times best seller this past week. The author was making the rounds on podcasts and the concept of looking at life in a holistic manner appealed to me. As I started to read there were a few ageist statements that ruffled my feathers. The last one segmented human growth into common stages: childhood, early career, raising a family, then after age fifty the “sunset years”… it had me grumbling. I stopped reading and looked to...

The Energy of You Volume XX Issue #28 Hi Reader, I've had my fair share of nights lying awake at 3 AM, mind racing with worries about not being able to get it all done, financial security, or that conversation I kept avoiding. Flipping over side to side, blankets in a tangle around my legs, thoughts won't settle, and I would give anything for just a moment of peace. Familiar? Or just me? For me EFT has helped. I've been using EFT or Tapping both personally and in my practice for decades. It’s...

The Energy of You Volume XX Issue #27 Hi Reader, A few years ago, I was working with a client who'd spent the better part of a decade trying to "find her purpose." She'd taken career assessments, worked with multiple coaches, and even left a stable job to pursue what she thought was her calling, only to find herself more confused than ever. Her voice carried that mix of longing and frustration I know so well, because I’ve heard it from countless women in my coaching and healing work, and I’ve...

The Energy of You Volume XX Issue #26 Hi Reader, Each month, I run a little life experiment, a simple, focused way to try something new and see what shifts. These experiments help me create change without pressure or overwhelm. Some of them last a week, others stretch into a full month depending on what I’m exploring. Last month’s experiment was all about boosting joy and movement. I started each day with dancing. I love to dance and don’t do it nearly enough, so I made it easy, a Spotify...

The Energy of You Volume XX Issue #25 Hi Reader, A few years ago, I sat in a doctor’s office explaining a mix of fatigue, swelling in my feet, unexpected weight gain, and a vague but persistent sense that something was “off.” . My vitals were fine, my overall health was good and I was approaching fifty. I remember the doctor sitting on her stool tilting her head and saying, “Well, eat better and get more exercise.” My mouth dropped open. I had just told her I walked three miles a day, did...

The Energy of You Volume XX Issue #24 Hi Reader, I woke up at 4:42 a.m. one day last week, flip flopped around a bit and squished my pillow into a multitude of shapes as if it would magically cradle me back to sleep. My mind is a busy place, and that day was no different. I began thinking about some changes I'm making in my business, the book I'm working on, and a new project; lo and behold, some self-doubt crept in. (Funny how those wee hours when thoughts ping-pong around your brain sprout...

The Energy of You Volume XX Issue #23 Hi Reader, Amidst all the cookouts, parades, and fireworks I entered Logan International airport with tears streaming down my face. I checked two pieces of luggage and boarded a plane to take me three thousand miles away from everything and everyone I knew. That was thirteen years ago. The buildup to that move was long and bumpy. There was a fair amount of second-guessing myself, last-minute decisions by others that shifted the course, and some healthy...

The Energy of You Volume XX Issue #22 Hi Reader, I've been working on a course on longevity for women to start in the fall (click here if you want to be on the early notification list). It's been exciting to research, create and explore. There's so much potential in our bonus years. It also had me looking at what I teach,along with the integration and benefit of weaving energy healing into everyday life. Woven throughout my work both individually and in groups are various mind-body or...

The Energy of You Volume XX Issue #21 Hi Reader, I was at a writing retreat a couple of years ago when the instructor asked us to set an intention for the session. Each person shared a goal - edit two chapters, write five thousand words, clarify the theme and plot. When it was my turn I said “My goal is to have a fully fleshed outline, but my intention is to be open and curious as I tune into my deep well of knowledge.” This led to a lively conversation about goals, intentions, and...
