Do we choose a name or does the soul find a way to deliver it to us?

My personal account of connecting with the spirit of a loved one.

Where does our sense of awe, wonder and enchantment go as we age? How can we bring it back?

Receive is the word I chose for my January calendar photo and here's the story behind it...

I am dedicating this Thanksgiving post to the love of my life, Douglas Whynot.

Mother's Day can be easier for some than for others because being a mother is both rewarding and challenging.

Deer is giving us a nudge to reach deep inside ourselves to the power of gentleness.

How this simple breathing meditation provided insight that changed the course of my relationship with my mom.

Be the change you want to see in 2022, then hold onto your hat! Don't take my word for it. Here's how...

Are you grateful for how you are different or for how you are similar?

It's been 9 years since I became a grandmother. I had forgotten that I wrote about the experience of holding my grandson for the first time until a friend recently asked for a copy of my writing to share with her friend who will be a grandmother soon. I couldn't believe she remembered that post. Do you remember it? When I dug it out and reread it, I was reinspired. What I wrote can be applied to so many things. I don't know anyone who couldn't use to breathe a little more deeply right now so here it is with a few minor tweaks.

How to rise? A powerful nugget of wisdom for thriving in these tumultuous times and how it unfolded for me. My hope is for you to find value as well. Happy Easter, Passover and Innitiation!

Applying lessons learned on the slopes for coming out of this pandemic more openhearted than guarded.

Happy Valentine's Day!
