Beautiful Baltimore and Intro to Energetic Self Healing

This was the view from our beautiful 15th floor room in downtown Baltimore for the Intro to Energetic Self Healing Workshop, an introduction to Reiki. I was so super honored and excited to share this workshop this past Saturday. Every workshop is special and unique, and this one had the very beautiful theme of sisters! [...]

Finding Stillness in Winter

Enjoying the seasons feels like such a blessing... walked for several miles in the lightly falling rain with my sis and her boyfriend this afternoon. There's so much quiet here, not what a lot of people (myself included) imagine about Philly I think. Taking some time for quiet reflection is such a natural and important [...]

Embracing Experiences — and Hearts — in Sedona

Throwing back to my recent trip to Sedona. I had so many beautiful, synchronistic experiences there and one was as I was walking back down from the Boynton Canyon vortex. A man who was walking up stopped me and said "can I give you something?" I said, "of course!" and he pulled this red rock [...]

The “Okotoks Erratic” – Megaliths in Calgary

I found megaliths, just outside of Calgary! These beautiful, enormous and ancient stones stand in the middle of the flat plains, and have been sacred to the Blackfoot people. The "Okotoks Erratic" (from the Blackfoot word for rock) were deposited here by a glacier some 30,000 years ago, and the quartzite they're composed of is [...]

Reiki Teaching Reflections – Calgary Reiki 1

I'm enjoying a little green tea matcha by the fire this morning in Calgary, taking a quiet moment to reflect on such a beautiful Reiki 1 class yesterday. Each class is so special and unique, and yet sometimes it still amazes me what happens when a group of present, authentic and caring people come together [...]

On Traveling and Protection: My Mantra

I've been blessed to do so much traveling this year, and most of it on my own. I've actually done way more solo traveling than with people throughout my life, my first international trip by myself at 23 years old to the outer Hebrides of Scotland to visit Callanish. I don't often think about the [...]

Sunrise and Stepping Out on the Ledge

Up with the sun and getting ready for a pretty big day for me: my first writers conference. Many of you know I've written a novel... It was finished by the time I started caring for Kenny and so went on hold for about a year. This summer I revisited the novel, spending these last [...]

Love, Healing and a Heart-Shaped Burn

I burnt my finger after Reiki 1 in Phoenix, not paying attention to where I placed my fingers while picking up a glass candle. The blister was heart-shaped too but went away quickly as I tended to it, just leaving a little skin cover. When I returned to San Diego last week, the skin started [...]

Sedona Airport Vortex and Timing Perfection

Arrived in Sedona yesterday and just, wow- this is from the top of the airport energy vortex- the first one I went to. So breathtakingly beautiful and majestic...and powerful! Took me a day to get my bearings and now I'm feeling wonderful this morning. Also so very grateful for the many lovely synchronisties that keep [...]

Learning to Let Others Simply “Be”

I know I learned somewhere along the line, that a person can become a band aid for past hurts and wounds. Unintentionally, it's the place from which I used to seek out relationships - gravitating toward people that made me feel better about myself, or made me feel protected; but perhaps not seeing those people [...]
