Do you tend to reach for cake, cookies, and candy when you’re nervous, anxious, or sad? Is a large bowl of pasta your saving grace after a tough day at work? Have you been watching what you eat, but seem to keep gaining weight? Do you have an uncontrollable urge to stuff yourself and pig out every night?
If any of these questions resonated with you, the issue might not be about food or willpower at all!
In my many years as an intuitive counselor, I’ve noticed that one of the major …

When is the last time you took time to really be still, perhaps through meditation or conscious breathing?
With so much going on in our lives, it’s beyond tough to find time to be still and connect to the All That Is. Between hectic work schedules and endless to-do lists, many of us barely have a chance to come up for air. Sure, you want to make time to be still and meditate, but it just gets lost in the shuffle and before you know it, it’s bedtime and you’re too …

Where are you spending most of your time—the past, present, or the future?
If you primarily focus on your past or your future, you become a ghost in your present. Living in the NOW is where your real power is. In fact, your brightest future and most peaceful past both hinge on your ability to stay in the present, where you’re connected to your intuition and the Divine.
We live in an age of distraction, future planning, and ruminating about the past. So many of us get caught in a cycle of …

A few weeks ago I wrote about synchronicities—those meaningful coincidences that your soul attracts into your life to help you grow and evolve. Thank you for all your amazing comments and stories about the Tap Into the Power of Synchronicity blog. I loved reading them! Many of you wrote that you were confused about how to interpret synchronicities. So, I thought I’d share my insight into a few of your examples so we can all further understand and take advantage of synchronistic events.
Let’s start with what happens when synchronicities …

Take a moment to look around you.
Do your surroundings nourish and uplift you, or do they leave you feeling stressed and weighted down?

One of my great realizations about intuition—and an important point that is under-emphasized by many—is that your outer environment has a dramatic impact on your inner-knowing. Yes, I’m talking about all that stuff that may be scattered around your home, office, and car… the little knick knacks that have piled up, the gadgets you’re keeping in case you need them “someday,” the old clothes that don’t fit quite …

Who or what do you need to forgive?
I know forgiveness may seem like one of those intangible ideals that’s just out of reach or a waste of time. But, it’s not. You can make the choice to forgive. And by making that decision, you not only move forward on your path, but you also open the door to Spirit’s messages.
Resentment, anger, shame, and regret all keep you focused on the past and block you from accessing the realm of connection. In addition to robbing you of the present, lack of …

Are you getting tired of the same old routine? Is your each day just like the one before? Do you feel like the walls are closing in?
A certain amount of routine can be comforting and good. But, if we stay in the familiar too long, we stagnate and stop growing. While our Goblin egos might love the idea of keeping everything the same, our soul and higher self long for us to grow. When you’re stuck in a rut, you might start to feel bored, stuck, lonely, sad, depressed, or …

It’s been almost a week since I finished up my most recent Sedona Intensive weekend, and I’m still in awe of all the transformative work we did. I feel so blessed to be able to dig deep with such truly amazing participants. Even though I’m technically the leader, I’ve found that I learn something new from each new participant and group. We had breakthrough after breakthrough! And one of those breakthroughs was about our Goblins, those clever little creatures who LOVE to distract us from living an authentic and purposeful …

Last week I was catching up with an old friend over coffee when the subject of finger oracles came up.  She’d been frustrated with the uncertainty in her life and wasn’t sure of her next steps. She’d been using oracle cards, but lately she felt her senses were overwhelmed and the cards she picked weren’t speaking to her. I suggested she start to focus more on her sense of psychic touch when doing readings and told her about two great divination tools to do just that. She agreed to try …

Myths are jam-packed with symbolic levels that once acknowledged, can have a tremendous impact on human consciousness.  Myths are also designed to have a multi-layered effect upon the observer.
One myth is like a miniature world.  A world in which there are seemingly infinite avenues of wisdom imparted.  Each avenue within a story points in a philosophical direction.  Moving within a myth, we are offered symbolic cues – signposts, roadmaps, landmarks – all of these are waiting for our awareness to discover.
And once uncovered, these symbolic breadcrumbs can catalyze our understanding.  …
