Everyone’s a guru.

The other day I attended a seminar given by a woman I have known for a long time. She is a visionary, medical intuitive, spiritual mentor and mystic—the real thing. In addition to owning a number of impressive patents, she has also developed a powerful system of energetic healing that she teaches to lay persons …

Are you awake yet?

I remember many decades ago when I first heard about the now ubiquitous “onion theory”— how much sense it made to me. For those who are not familiar with it, it is as obvious as this: the self is like an onion—the truest part lies deep in the center wrapped in layer upon layer of …

Take a walk with your Higher Self

Most of us are familiar with the ancient mystical concept of the Higher and the Lower Selves and the grand, nearly impossible divide that lies between.

This may sound crazy at first, but I keep a Worry Journal. I do not keep such a journal so I can shop around for things to worry about, believe me! Like most people, I don’t need the help. I keep a Worry Journal so I can expose the worries that are subtly (or not …

How to rescue a friend

An acquaintance of mine, “Janine”, was diagnosed with breast cancer a few months ago, and is currently undergoing chemotherapy.  With great concern, our mutual friend, “Laura”, said to me, “Janine is handling the situation much too well.  As a result, her children are placing the same demands on her that they always have.  They are …

The Winner of the 2016 Presidential Election is…

I was at a gathering of friends this weekend, and the conversation circled energetically from family, to politics, to weather, to religion, finance, retirement, world events, and back again.  We discussed upcoming weddings, elections, heat waves, house sales, gas drilling in the Catskills, oil spills in the Gulf, and more.  We discussed family histories in …

What is freedom?

On this July 4th weekend, amidst the barbecues and fireworks, I found myself pondering the idea of freedom.  I thought about what it means to truly experience freedom, and how some people, even in this free country, have no freedom at all.  So what does the word really mean?  Well, like most things, freedom has three …

Is God in charge? Or are we?

I have a friend (I’ll call Margaret) who is always unhappy.  Never smiles, jumps to bad conclusions about people often, and reacts negatively to any position she doesn’t immediately understand or agree with.  I have only known Margaret for one year, but others tell me that she is very difficult to deal with in almost …
