surrender

This week a friend of mine sent me a power point presentation about a professor holding a cup. The story goes like this: A professor walked into class one day and held up a cup of water for all to see. The professor asked, “How much do you think this cup weighs?” The students answered, [...]

Ego

This week I finally understood the law of attraction. I’ve been writing about it for a while, but on Tuesday something finally clicked. I used to think of myself as a passive participant in life. I used to think the Universe acted upon me and there was nothing I could do about it. I guess [...]

Stress

Today I’m feeling stressed about the Non-Violent Communication Workshop I’m organizing (if you’re in the Bay Area I’d love to see you there!). I took on this task on top of all the other things I’m doing and I’m obsessing because I still don’t have a venue. On Wednesday I overheard a great quote. The [...]

I like change in small doses but this has been massive. Each day I wake up, look in the mirror and say, “Who are [...]

I know I’ve written about this before but I’m human so sometimes it takes me a while to learn my lessons. Some may even say it’s a lifelong process. . . Anyway, this year I made the New Year’s Resolution to be more present and stay in the moment. I feel like the Universe is [...]

For the past few weeks especially I’ve been going through some serious mental anguish. The reason for my strife is I’ve been at war with myself. I’ve been divided between my head and my heart. My mind and my intuition have been at odds and in that state I experience the worst kind of hell. [...]
