• A New Lease on Life

  

  I didn’t even know how much I needed it until it arrived. (Well, that’s not exactly true.) I was crossing my fingers and toes that I would get good news, but I was preparing myself for the worst just in case. “Just in case” may feel like a denial of hope in a given situation.…

• Sticks and Stones May Break My Bones, But the Past Will Never Hurt Me

  I finished reading Many Lives, Many Masters by Brian Weiss M.D. last night. The book has been in print for twenty years already, but the past is always relevant, so it’s longevity isn’t a surprise. While this is the first time I read his book, I did have the pleasure of attending a workshop with…

• Visualize the Impossible

  If you’ve ever been to a psychologist’s office or read a self-help book, you’ve probably come across the concept of visualization as a technique for creating change in your life.

• What’s With All this Mother Bear Business?

  I have a thing for bears. It started years ago when I lived in Boise, Idaho. I was working for a book store with a woman quite a few years older. I saw her as a mentor. She was going through a separation from her husband and had moved from a big house in the…

• What I Found in the Middle of the Night

  I woke up in the middle of the night to find my hand moving of its own accord into my shirt to feel the side of my left breast near my armpit. There was a small formation underneath the surface, the size of a small stone. I fell back asleep with thoughts of breast cancer…

• Nature Vs. Nurture: How Do You Take Care of Yourself?

  As I sit down to write this evening, I hear sirens from a fire truck rolling down the street. Whenever I hear sirens, I say a little prayer. I visualize a light and love for the best possible outcome going over the vehicle, protecting the people on board speeding to their destination and the waiting person…
