Allow and Embrace Life
Allow, embrace, embellish the bright side of life. Who brings positivity and do you nurture it? We don’t need a brief break from the negativity, we need to grow what is good for us.

Best Possible We
The truth is, I am here for you and you are here for me and as long as we understand that we can achieve great things together.

The Practice of Moving from FML to Peaceful Calm
We must find a practice that brings us from anger, humiliation, frustration, blame and attack to praise for what we are able to do with our body, heart and love. As we find a way for our love to grow and our stability to process we find a way to hold our innermost core in a place of peaceful calm. Where is the gratitude in your life and how are you able to source it when there is nothing to be grateful for and everything to be angry about? When the hurt surmounts the peace? When the pain is too ...

Anger is Right and Lonely
These difficult times are a breeding ground for anger. What is served when anger is the master? You may be right, but you will be lonely. You may have the last word but it falls on deaf ears. The only way to survive is to love, listen and find commonality. What if my next lesson was compassion? To see something I had not yet seen? In my anger, I drove all my teachers away. https://timeouttransformation.com/

We Deserve Love Not Trauma or Suffering
We are cared for when we learn to care for ourselves. Trauma never really disappears. Suffering is when we bring the pain from the past into today and then we project it into the future. When a crack in the pain opens a tiny bit The Observer (our True Self) shines through with love. The pain of yesterday need not ever be the suffering of today or the unworthiness of tomorrow. https://timeouttransformation.com/

Source Inspiration Not Complication
Is a change of direction tapping you on the shoulder? What are your sources of information, inspiration, definition and most importantly personal observation? Understanding sources and how to put them into practice: 1. The Observer Within. We must learn how to still the internal chatter so we can source our true wisdom and direction. Define your guiding influence. 2. A Trusted Group in times of uncertainty to help reassess your path. As we choose to align with our Inner Observer our our path bec...

Post-Pandemic Plan Pregnant with Possibility
When we feel like giving up, what new beginning rises within us in these times of uncertainty? Pain moves hand-in-hand with joy; don’t move in fear from it, move through it, prepare beyond it creating Future. Make a list of the gifts you have been given, the battles you have waged and won and create hope.

Change and the Beauty of Sharing
Reality is changing us in every breath of every day. We may feel stuck in a perpetual Ground Hog Day but every minute is the opportunity and reality of change. How do we move through change? When it’s my turn to experience something difficult, if I weave myself into my cocoon of metamorphosis and share nothing what benefit is there for my friends and family? Sometimes a template shared by someone we trust is more valuable than one shared by an expert. That is where we see truth. What do you shar...

Balance with Love
Balance is the most difficult thing to achieve. Struggle within us is magnified in our children and the struggle of my parents is magnified in me. We tell ourselves we do not deserve love and we have not learned how to create it for ourselves, within ourselves. In this episode: We discover simple self-love in a balanced, peaceful way. We experience nature while we’re stuck indoors. We find a way to create worthiness and love within us and that magnifies. Love can’t always come from someone else....

Trust that Soul’s Growth is the Plan
Trust in knowing that not-knowing is the best way to be. How do we know what challenges will await and awaken us? We have choices to make, how do we look at those choices? Am I filled with anxiety? Am I filled with joy in the knowledge and trust that I have what it takes to make this experiential learning what it needs to be for my soul’s growth? Unless and until we realize that the soul’s growth is the plan, we will always be struggling over the decisions and tragedies that befall us. How small...

Your Big Dream Meditation
Join me in this meditation. If you were to look at your Big Dream what is it’s embodiment for you? We have a window of opportunity – quiet time— “My Big Dream … I remember it now … it goes like this …” Explore, spend time in the quiet of your mind, allow the light of your attention to shine upon it, allow love to encompass and embrace it and with that love your Dream will grow. “What if this is the exact moment, the opportunity for my Big Dream to help others?” Doubt does not serve you well. You...

Create Your Storyboard
The global anxiety is a hum, static that flows in, through and around us. The individual challenges we suffer become magnified on the global scale. We all may be reacting to and through it. How can we turn down the static? “What is unique for me to do and have I put my hand to it? Can I use this as impetus to say what am I here to do and begin to do it? If Love exists in me in a unique form what have I done with it?” The quarantine is a birthplace for understanding who you are on Planet Earth. U...

Choose to Use Your Divine Creativity
Each can be lifted by the other. We are not helpless, we are full of help and so be helpful! Reach into our divine creativity and create something today. If we are simply spending our time in difficulty, always struggling, what do we do when the struggle comes to an end except … end? What stands for us? What shows the planet what we have carried within us? “What have I created that carries forward as the delight that is me on planet Earth? Have I learned what is within me or do I simply have a b...

Square One - Create Love in Your Life Today
Where is truth and love in your life? What is your destiny, your legacy? “Even if I can’t change the planet I can begin with myself. I can change a little square of my life.” Do you see scarcity or joy and how do you share it? You are the creator of truth and beauty in the spirit of love in your life. If you can do it in no other way than through the words that you tell yourself in the quiet of your own mind then let that be your workshop. “This is my canvas, what beauty will I create today?”...

It's Not Lonely at the Top
How much of our lives are influenced by others? Everything! If we only ever look after ourselves it’s a lonely place to be. People say “It’s lonely at the top” but it needn’t be. How do we measure top from bottom? If you had to pick your place, where are you? Where do you want to be?

Creation Feels Like Crap
Sometimes creation is hard. It grows in darkness and pain, comes out screaming at its birth. Will you live to see it grow into something great in the tiny little window of life on planet Earth? All we can do is create and hold it in our outstretched hand.

Fly in Joy, Sureness and On Purpose
“Have I defined what I am here to create? If I choose not to define it, what is defining me in its absence?” Once we are grown we no longer make mistakes, we make choices. We must set aside blame and determining factors outside ourselves as well as those within that we choose not to focus on but we allow to move us … Blind spots. “What is my purpose? Have I given it full expression? Do I allow myself to be trapped and to grow small?” When we choose to spread our wings we fly in joy, sureness and...

Clean Up Your Family Mess
Anger, mental health issues play heavily on children. It’s my divine right and my spiritual obligation to clean up as much mess within and around myself today and everyday going forward. What about what you are seeing, feeling and doing needs to be recreated? If through your choices you are creating a conduit to the future do you make that travel easy for them? Do you make their life more willing, more creative? Or do you make them shrink smaller still than you are today in your difficulty? Unle...

Time Out for Quiet Metamorphosis. Through Restoration Comes Transformation
What happens when you throw a caterpillar in the air and say “Fly!”? It seems like I’ve grown strong but there are parts of me that are just as weak as I’ve ever been. How do we move through change? How do we receive joy? Overjoyed? Past joy and straight into anxiety? During this move my hair has been falling out by the handful, I’m arguing with my husband. How am I moving through change? Badly. Can I take a time-out and say “I’m not ready for this.” How do we restore equilibrium, peace and insp...

How Do You Move Through Change? Alive and Thriving?
We have the power to recreate ourselves. Even joy and love can be expressed in a new way if we allow ourselves to grow. We need to learn to evolve in a quick way so that we can move into each moment alive and thriving. When we arrive at wonderful ‘enough’ we keep it that way. We think it’s the best it’s going to get. How do we know? We make love in a certain way, we drive to work, we fall into the same routines. Even though we bitch, we like the old way. We are capable of learning but we have to...

This Planet is Here for Our Use!
When we look at other places we imagine they are living a more difficult life, according to our own perspective. We think we have more. Other countries may have less stuff and yet when they are questioned about how they feel in relation to their work, where they live, their families, they grade themselves as being happier than we do when we look at ourselves. Over and over again we grade ourselves as not having a good sense of well-being. I must look around my life and decide what I’m doing that...

Love Wins
Love wins. It occurred to me yesterday that my last break up was my last break up. Break ups are devastating. As wonderful as someone might be, they might not be right for us. How do we live in a healthy fashion so that our spirit and emotions are healthy? We need to stop making the terrible mistakes. Take a good hard look at where you are and where you are not. Where do you imagine yourself being? What gives your soul and spirit joy? What makes you younger while you are doing it? What are we do...

Need a Life-Changing Answer? Ask for It
Two years ago now I was sitting beside my dying dog and I was questioning whether I could put her down. I saw her suffer more and more as each moment passed. I asked for answers. I have peace in my soul with regard to that life-changing question. I had no idea that I had been practicing devotional meditation. When you have questions, and we all do, ask your question, find the meditation practice that works for you and practice it. Renew the conversation. The answers are all around us in the way ...
