A Deeper Freedom 
Rising Above Circumstance to Live Your Vision        
   

A definition of Freedom it goes something like this:
 
1. the state of being free or at liberty rather than in confinement or under physical restraint.
 
2. exemption from external control, interference, regulation, etc.
 
3. the power to determine action without restraint.
 
 
We are incredibly fortunate to have our freedom politically-to be able to express ourselves and make all kinds of choices about how to live our lives...

Creating Space for Success and Vitality
Cause and Effect
   
 
There's nothing quite so decadent to me as the rich, robust flavor of an uber dark chocolate-I'm talking 72-90% + cacao.  That dark slightly bitter combined with the creamy texture as it melts, followed by the deep version of other sweetness.
 
I know...
 
It may be wrong to love an inanimate object, but I simply can't help myself.  I adore dark chocolate.
 
As many of you know, I recently uncovered some pretty major food allergies.  In ...

I used to write "my version" of poetry all the time but I've been out of practice.  The past couple days I've gotten inspired again so I thought I'd share...

Snow Dust Morning

White snow dusting the chocolate brown branches backed by a silver blue sky
So quiet whispering a gentle good morning
The stillness of snow eases into my heart
Making me want to pull up the covers for one more turn
It is a necessary yield to the frenetic pace of recent warm days
An essential pause in a too fast world
Though the...

When Perfection is a Mistake
Redefine it. Reclaim energy.

If you have been a subscriber for a while (or even 2 weeks) you know without a doubt that I’m human.  I’m absolutely not error-free.  Though I wish at times I didn’t have public “Oops” moments, it is just part of putting myself and passions out there...I’m bound to flub up now and then.

As I write this I realize the problem is not necessarily the idea of perfection, rather how we define it.

One definition of perfection is...

Here's this month's v-zine-- (Video e-zine)

**What I neglected to mention in the video is that when we are gathering information, a key piece is testing that information whenever possible.  As my hubby Todd would say, "Data is your friend." (I laugh and at the same time acknowledge it is true...though I've never been a data girl...ironic.)

Thanks to Todd I went the whole nine yards to gain new understanding of what's up in my body which completely helped deliver a long unanswered "Why" to so ...

Be the Expression of Hope
Lighting the way
 
It's no secret that our country has been going through something major for a while.  More and more people are getting drawn into the black hole of despair.  I urge you, choose hope.
 
Two people can navigate identical life circumstances and have completely different experiences and outcomes.  In truth, it is a choice.  One person may go through a dramatic change that feels like life is over as she knows it-- going through the drudgery of the day, feel...

Independence vs. Isolation
American culture today emphasizes privacy, independence, busy lives, and technology, with less focus on community. Rare are the block parties, bringing together an entire neighborhood. Many of us have potentially isolating daily routines.

Get up, go to work, (likely commute alone), work in your cubicle or office, eat lunch (sometimes at your desk or in the car), go home. Maybe you live with a spouse, significant other, family, pets; ...

Recently I watched the movie, Man On Wire - a fascinating story about a man, Phillippe Petit, who is wild about pushing boundaries, as well as exploring the remarkable blend of risk and art.  In August 1974 he tightrope walked (danced really) between the twin towers of the World Trade Center, some 1,300 ft off the ground.

Amazing? Outrageous? Or slightly insane?  I suspect it's somewhere in between, as often is the case when one taps into their passion.  Historically we may not realize someo...

If You Knew It Was the Last Time...
What Would You Do Differently?

The Cherishing
For whatever reason, one of my all time favorite things is to hear the crickets at night.  There's something about it that makes my heart sing.  I'm not sure if it's because it reminds me of camp, how I love summer, or that I just feel close to nature.  Whatever the case, I delight when I hear the first chirp of the season.  I'm not sure why, but this year I paid close attention, determined to mark the final day ...

Do You Know Who You Are? 
From Discontent to Delight- Making Time for YOU.

You are a hard worker, a giving person who does whatever it takes to get ‘er done—be it providing square meals, keeping up with laundry, drawing up brilliant proposals or traveling the globe for company growth.  That is fantastic and so giving of you—I’m sure that you are making a lot of people’s lives great.

I want to know about your life.

Do you love it?  Do you tolerate it?  Is your mind dark with silen...

Today I'm sharing Five Reasons We Procrastinate Fulfillment.

Was there a time in your life (like maybe now) that you yearned for something, or had something in mind that you really wanted to have, be or create?

In fact maybe you've had it for a long time OR perhaps you don't actually know what "it" is yet, but you know there's something calling to you f...

We all have a little seed inside, a seed of inspiration.  Perhaps we were born with it or maybe it showed up later in life.  It's that thing that lights a fire in your belly when you think about the possibility of it.  When you imagine that it might happen in your life, you can't help but smile and feel a flutter of excitement. 

What are you waiting for?

Though everything is about choices and timing, if not now, when?  (However, it is possible that dreaming ...

The Fine Art of Alignment
September 2003

Consequences of Mis-Alignment
Being out of alignment in our lives can create strong “symptoms.” When this happens we may feel unhappy, frustrated, impatient, worried, confused, angry, discouraged, apathetic, or bored. Resultantly, we don’t always take the best care of ourselves, which ironically seems to compound the feelings.
Doing the Work
The learning path to alignment is filled with opportunities to grow, and takes as long as it takes. Good news! ...

Claim Your Gifts
A Key to Finding Meaning

I've noticed a fascinating, wide-spread phenomenon...we disregard our gifts and innate talents as "normal," mistakenly assuming that everyone can do what we naturally can do.  As a result of considering our gifts normal, we shrug them off, thinking them no big deal, and carry on with our ever-determined search to create meaningful work.  We have no idea that our holy grail is laying right within us.

Many years ago I worked as a staff recruiter, hirin...

Creating Security from Within
March 2003
*Note- though this article was written 7 years ago, it is still so relevant to our lives today...amazing how uncertainty is always with us!

The State of the World
We likely agree that the state of the world is a bit confusing at the moment. There is a sense of uncertainty, of life on “hold”, of “waiting to see” what will happen, if things will escalate or subside. With uncertainty comes fear, peeking in the windows of our experience, raising doub...

Belief vs. Believe
December 2002- part 3

We all have different driving forces and motivators in our lives.

Many of our driving forces, whether recognition, accomplishment, service, abundance, can be traced back to our belief systems and what we learned to be important.

What are your beliefs?
Often we aren't even aware of a majority of our “life shaping” beliefs? For example what do you believe about wealth, stability, travel, adventure, tradition, parenting, hard work, poverty, politics?  ...

A Special Birthday Gift to You: In Celebration of Living the Life You Love

It’s amazing what a “benchmark birthday” will do for a person.  You can’t help but look back and think about the future. I’m right on the fringe of 40 and it’s the perfect time for me to regroup on life goals, values, and intentions for the upcoming decade.

If you’ve been reading my newsletter for a while, you’ve followed along with all of the stretching, bending and expanding I’ve had to do in o...

Your Ideal Career — Doing Your Best Work
February 2002

Loving Your Work
An essential part of living a “whole” life and being “healthy” is your career. Being that once you begin a career you spend anywhere from 24 to 60+ hours a week (we’ll talk about number of hours later!), your career is a vital piece in the Big Picture of your life.

Imagine sleeping comfortably in your bed and waking to the alarm thinking, “Time to go to work”. Are you motivated, depressed, excited? (Of cours...

A Return to Balance: Cultivate Support

It is so easy to get in the routine of life's daily "To-Do's" and constant sense of being short on time.  As a result, innumerable things fall to the wayside-the things that seem non-essential or like indulgences.  One of those misplaced elements is often cultivating support.

Cultivating support means a myriad of things and is similar to prepping a garden so that it can flourish.  One component of support is relationships.  Though independence and...
