Big Changes Happening This week’s video inspiration is a Buddha saying, “Everything changes; nothing remains without change.” I highlight how we are going through significant disruptions in social justice, voting rights, women’s rights, gay rights, black rights, gun rights. Everything is up in the air with change. I have faith that we will come out of this period with more inclusion, more stable and expanded rights, and frankly more love, compassion, and acceptance. We Can Participate In Change “Everything changes; nothing remains…..
Stop talking and instead practice This week’s inspiration is forgiveness. We all are taught about forgiveness, but so few of us actually practice it. Unfortunately, we now live in a “cancel culture” where you need to be canceled if you did something wrong 10 minutes ago or ten years ago. However, I do see the difference between 10 minutes ago and ten years ago. Hopefully, you have grown and changed in the last ten years, and so has the person……
This weeks inspiration is Turn On A Dime In this video, I share how I was fretting about what may happen when a friend reminded me that I always say that things can turn on a dime. Why not this? That made me think about this saying and what it has meant to me over the years. It means your life can change directions on the smallest of coins – a dime. How my life suddenly changed I share m…..
Change Your Negative Beliefs In this video, I stress why you need to change your negative beliefs instead of making resolutions you rarely keep. Elephant Story In changing your negative beliefs, I share a story about elephants and how a small rope kept them from running away. This begins on babies, and as they grow up the same rope is used. Knowing they can not break free as babies, they assume they cannot as adults. They end up having a…..
Becoming your authentic self More and more people say the phrase – I want to become my authentic self. But what does it mean to BE your authentic self, and what must you Do? I answer the 2nd part of that question first. What you must do to become your authentic self means you learn to love yourself – unconditionally. Lacking in self-love to having self-love However, You will not go from having little to overflowing with self-love in a…..
Lacking in Self-Love When I helped three people face the end of their lives, they all had the same regret. They were of different generations and lived different lives, but they all had the same regret: They wished they loved themselves more. I, too, lacked self-love, and after years of reading and doing spiritual, metaphysical, and personal growth work, I finally decided to get to the root of the problem. – My lack of self-love. I was learning that self-love…..
Add Affirmations To Your ToolBox. Once you have begun to change your negative beliefs, you should add affirmations to your toolbox. Affirmations help keep your mind focused on what you want to happen and also help to lock it more into your heart. There is no quicker way to lock it into your heart than to say something every day. Too many people do affirmaito0jns before they are ready. Unfortunately, too many people like to do affirmations without doing any…..
Focus on The Positive. When working on returning to self-love you will have to add to your spiritual toolbox. One of the things you will need to add is the power to always find the positive, especially during the tough times. This can be a hard tool to get used to during difficult times. It is so easy to wallow in what is going wrong in your life. However, the reason we try to do this is, is because where…..

Do You Respect You? Many people complain that other people do not respect them. I ask do you have self-respect, or are you looking for it from others? Unfortunately, many are looking for it from others. Everything starts with the self -self-love, including self-compassion, self-gratitude, and, yes, self-respect. Do you honor your feelings? What about your boundaries? Do you listen to what your mind is saying to you or your heart? I had a friend who proved my point……
