Volume XXI Issue #29 Hi Reader, A few months ago I had a commute ahead of me that I was not particularly looking forward to. Over the hill, as we call it here, a route that can go beautifully or turn into stop and go traffic with very little warning. Before I left the house I had set my morning intention to appreciate the beauty around me. Then, as I got into the car, I added a segment intention specifically for the drive: I intend this commute to be stress free. I intend to arrive calm and...

Volume XXI Issue #28 Hi Reader, For much of my life, I was the yes person. I was the busy, competent one who somehow always managed to get it all done. If someone needed help with something, I said yes. If there was a committee that needed another person, I said yes. If someone asked me to take on one more thing at work, help with something at school, or squeeze something into an already full week, chances were pretty good that "Sure" would come out of my mouth before I'd given it much...

Volume XXI Issue #23 Hi Reader, I've been stirring the pot in my business lately, and I mean that in the best possible way. Two new projects are taking shape that blend creativity, energy medicine, and self-discovery in ways I've been wanting to explore for a long time. One is the Dual Energy Assessment, a tool for understanding your unique energetic makeup, and the other is a membership community, Everyday Consciousness, I've been building toward for months. Both feel alive in the way that...

The Energy of You Volume XX Issue #33 Hi Reader, Last year, a client came to me feeling completely stuck. She was approaching retirement but found herself in freeze mode when it came to making decisions, and it was delaying her retirement. She came to me to work on her fears around finances and getting herself unstuck. Together, through Webwork and coaching, we untangled the old stories that kept her paralyzed. That got her making the decisions she needed to make and she entered into her...

The Energy of You Volume XX Issue #32 Hi Reader, September has sped by, full calendar, full mind, full days. It had me thinking about something I return to again and again when life gets busy: foundation. When everything feels a little chaotic, it is your inner stability, your energetic roots, that help ground and steady you. Have you ever noticed how a walk on the beach or sitting under a tree makes you feel calmer and steadier? That's your root chakra in action, quietly anchoring you to...

The Energy of You Volume XX Issue #31 Hi Reader, The level of collective stress in the world is overwhelming right now. The divisiveness. The fire hose of information and misinformation that floods us daily. The uncertainty that makes our world feel like a volcano about to erupt, and our nervous systems are showing it. This creates static in our energy systems. Functioning in this state is exhausting. It's hard to focus and even harder to truly relax. As women navigating midlife in turbulent...

The Energy of You Volume XX Issue #30 Hi Reader, Last year I learned La donna scrive il libro (the woman writes the book) in Italian. I also discovered that clay can magically transform into silver jewelry,it felt a little like Rumplestiltskin was inside the kiln working his magic.The material feels and looks like clay. You shape and decorate it, then fire it in a kiln. Once it comes out, it's silver. At my age, I'm more curious than ever, and science shows this might be the secret to aging...

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...
