This week we wrap up our deep dive through the Elements with the element of Earth: The Grounding Wisdom. We will use the Sacred Sounds of the Elemental Globes and Divine Names to connect with the Sacred Mother Earth that provides us with stability and grounding. We tap into the sustenance and feel the deep wisdom of the innate knowledge our earthly bodies carry. We are not on the Earth, we are in the Earth and of the Earth. We carry an innate existential force that imbues us with her wisdom. You...

This week we continue our deep dive through the Elements with the element of Fire: The Flame of Purification. This is where you find the sweetness when you call on your Source in times of constriction. We use the Sacred Sounds of the Elemental Globes and Divine Names to invoke the purifying sounds and frequencies so that the imprints on your psyche that are incongruent with who you are can be released and the flame of your core light remains. This episode guides you to find strength in the embra...

This week we embark on a 5-week deep dive through the Elements. Contrary to my nature – we are not going to cover all of the elements in one session. We’ll dive into one each week. We begin this week with Part 1 - Ether: The Light of Truth. We tap into the inner light that is your core consciousness - the Higher Light within you. We use the Sacred Sounds of the Elemental Globes to feel the radiance and immerse into the light of truth that anchors you, that you are here to BE. As a microcosm of t...

This is a perfect Mother’s Day message – it’s about nurturing the nurturer. Receiving the Nurturing from the infinite, eternal, ever-present Source. You're probably in the habit of nurturing others. It's what we do. But when times get tough, we need our own nurturing. We need to be nurtured. We need space to be present, to allow it in, and to feel it. Just like unconditional love, nurturing is a divine force that we can call on and receive. It comforts and heals us. It restores our strength. It ...

As women, we are somatic creatures. We are meant to be connected with our bodies and with the earth. When we are not present in our bodies and connected to our senses, our programmed conditioned not-self behaviors take over. In other words, when we are not in our vehicles, in the driver's seat with hands on the steering wheel and eyes on the road, we cannot navigate the twists and turns of our path. The car will likely crash. So, what does it mean to be a somatic creature? When we are not in an ...

There is a lot happening right now for which anger is a natural response. Anger is a motivator; it can inspire us to take much-needed action. However, anger is not always the best place to act from. If you are uncomfortable with anger, you might find yourself stifling the emotion and abandoning the needed action altogether. You might feel that it's safer to do nothing than risk the danger that might come from anger. But what if there is a valid reason for the anger, a righteous cause that you wa...

As a young mathematician, I was told over and over again that women were not good at math. Yet my test scores proved otherwise. In my high-tech career, my achievements were diminished and uncompensated as I was told repeatedly that "women do not make it here." And yet I held my own and then some. Where do our gender expectations come from? More importantly, are they accurate for you? At some level, we are all imprinted with societal expectations of gender and pressured to conform to the "norms."...

Do you eat when you are not hungry? Could you be eating to cover shame? The nature of shame is to hide - it doesn't want to be seen. When we are still and things get quiet, that old hidden shame from the past starts to surface and we feel agitated. It could be from our past, it could be ancestral, or it could be that innate programming that so many of us are born with - listen for more about the innate programming. Most times, we don't even understand the source of our feelings - it just happens...

When something comes up 3 times in the same week, I take that as a sign to address it with the group. The issue is feeling undervalued at work and working so hard to prove yourself that you are near collapse, and you are still overlooked. You are not getting support you need because you feel like asking for help would be admitting you are not capable, even though you are often doing the work of three people. Or if you are in your own business, you might be giving too much away and not getting th...

There is a divine force of Power itself that runs through all of existence and manifests in many ways. And there is a place where that Divine Power penetrates you to live, express, and manifest through you. This Power meets and merges with your ego nature to become your inner power. This is where you have choice and responsibility for how you engage with Divine Power and use it hopefully for the greater good. In this Meditation & Healing Circle, we tap into the force of Divine Power that mov...

In this Meditation, our friend Ruha Cathy Delwiche guides us on a Holy Fire Reiki Journey to explore and integrate the healing power of Air. Air is the quality associated with the direction East, the rising sun, and the Spring Equinox. The Spring Equinox is the beginning of the agricultural year and the time when the Earth awakens. It is an excellent time for us to initiate and celebrate new beginnings. This year, the Spring Equinox was March 20, 2025, so we are a few days past the actual day li...

Fears, frustrations, anger, stress - they can build up inside us and act like the steam inside a pressure cooker. We need to regularly decompress - to let the steam out. These days it needs to be a daily self-care practice. In this Meditation & Healing Circle, I share 7 practices that you can use, and we’ll do four of them together. You're invited to join us LIVE for The Meditation & Healing Circle - every Sunday at 10am US ET / 7am US PT. When you join live, you can stay on after the re...

Difficult times present us with opportunities to discover who we are. We have a chance to push through our limitations and discover our strengths and values, but we have to dig deep. We have to find courage and hold tight to our convictions. We all have it within us, often more than we know. In today's Meditation and Healing Circle, we support each other to reach beyond our inner depths to discover, own, and embody the divine powers we hold inside. What is within you that you are called to be? J...

I have a book that is set to launch in the next month, pre-launch opens this week. It is called Fear, Food, and Feminine Power. I started writing it 8 years ago which feels like a long time, but it turns out the timing is perfect. Women have long held a generalized vibration of fear, feeling unsafe in their bodies. Many of us use food as a crutch to self-soothe, and we wrestle with a body that portrays the struggle inside and out. The book offers step-by-step guidance to heal old wounds and acce...

Have you ever been a victim of an attack or abuse and then been blamed for your own attack? Or unjustly scrutinized? Victim blaming is something many of us, especially women, have been conditioned to hold. Now we are seeing this in the firing of government employees given a justification of performance or lack when this is not the reason for their termination. We're seeing it in the way DEI hires are blamed for government waste and overspending. We are seeing this in the blaming of wars. And we ...

With all of the turmoil we are in right now, it’s important to remember what we do have, what we can do, and to focus on elevating our frequencies so we can stay aligned with our truth. We have been talking for a while now about ascension into a world of peace. Meanwhile, we’re in the storm. So how can we weather the storm while staying focused on evolution and elevation? This is the focus of this Meditation & Healing Circle. We call on Divine Powers of Contraction and Release to help us rel...

How much of your persona and habitual behaviors are influenced by cultural conditioning? How much of this conditioning is counter to your true essence? Society imprints so many expectations on us – what we believe, how we speak, how we dress and wear our hair, who we hang out with, what we eat, and the social and political ideologies we identify with. The influences can be so subtle that we don’t even realize we are losing ourselves. But suddenly, we find we have lost our connection with our hea...

This meditation targets the underlying generalized sense of fear. It focuses on releasing unexplained fear so we can be more present with current life events and make clearer judgments and decisions. There is a lot of fear in the air waves right now, and much of it can be explained and justified. However, there is an underlying fear that resides in the nervous system that gets amped up when the present dangers arise. These fears come from our own past or from our ancestors or from the general vi...

Dr. Bessel van der Kolk wrote the brilliant book The Body Keeps the Score . Your body holds the story of your life journey and gives you keys to healing. But your body is not limited to the effects of your past. It is still evolving with you as you write the next pages and chapters of your life. If you have ever looked in a mirror and not like what you've seen, or if you disconnect from your body in order to push through day-to-day, or you disregard your physical self-care, it's time to reconnec...

Our culture pushes us to identify with labels that tell us how we’re supposed to believe, look, and act: What does it mean to be a woman? A man? Nonbinary? A teenager? An adult? A parent? A liberal? A conservative? Independent? A professional [fill in the blank]? What’s your stereotype? What pictures do you fit in? The messages are full of double standards that are impossible to meet. You’re damned if you do and damned if you don't fit the pictures. This is society’s double bind. It can be chall...

In the Q&A after last Sunday's Meditation & Healing Circle, I had a request to do a Virtual Burning Bowl ritual. So that is what we are going to do today. Get a pen, paper, and a bowl, then press play. You do not need to use real fire - I personally like ripping up the papers by hand. A burning bowl ritual is where you write onto scraps of paper the things you want to release – unhealthy habits, beliefs, emotional patterns, relationships, jobs, financial situations – and then you ceremon...

Did you have intentions for 2024 that were not manifested? Maybe obstacles kept getting in your way, or maybe you just didn't get to it yet, or maybe you changed your mind. But the question inevitably comes up: should I hold onto this intention and keep trying or should I let it go and move on? It's not always easy to know if it's meant to be, but we have two Divine Names, divine powers that can help us determine when something needs a bit more time for gestation and when it is ready to move for...

Yesterday was our Winter Solstice, and today, our friend Ruha Cathy Delwiche will be leading us on a Holy Fire Karuna Reiki journey called "Whole Body Listening." This is the time of darkness – we will experience the shortest period of daylight and the longest period of darkness. This is a time of release and transformation – we use the available energies to release old habits, negative thought forms, and limiting beliefs. And just as the darkness must give way and change into the Light, we too ...

This one turned out to be a deep healing, more than I had originally expected. Sometimes in order to fully receive and integrate the gifts, we need to forgive ourselves for our perceived mistakes or shortcomings. That happened. Then we can receive the knowledge, intellect, and wisdom from our experiences, elevating our frequencies and expanding consciousness. That happened too. As we lift our vibrations, we stand on the new elevation as we look toward the new year. Enjoy this healing meditation,...

Can you believe it is already December? Again? It's a good time to reflect on this past year to take into account what you have accomplished and what you have received. We are all in a time of immense personal growth whether we realize it or not. What growth has developed within you? What has changed for you over the past year? The Great Sufi Shaykh, Muhyiddin Ibn Al-'Arabi said: "Intention gives meaning to your actions." "Interpretation gives meaning to your life." What interpretation can you g...
