A couple of posts ago, I promised to share the second option that lured me out of my seclusion to come out and play. Drum roll, please! My second book, “Empowered Voices: True Stories by Awakened Women” is here! Though the book is already available for Shop & Purchase purchase via my Amazon store using the button to the right, if you wait until Saturday September 15, 2012, all proceeds from that day will benefit the Heal My Voice nonprofit, which brings this healing process to women who’ve gone through domestic abuse, prison or court-mandated rehab. Or if you prefer to wait, you can purchase a copy from me at my October 7th book signing & reading...
Read MoreIt dawned on me that maybe you don’t know about this opportunity. You’ve heard me talk or write for a while now about Essence and how discovering mine has fueled my life. I’ve had so much to say and I seem to find even more, as evidenced by this recent video post where I talk about what it was like to have my Essence seen. How Essence Energy Work Changed My Life I want to share an opportunity for you to discover your Essence. In my last blog post, I wrote about a world-wide collaborative coaching community that I have helped to establish. Last week, Essence Coaches launched their website and in celebration of that milestone, we are offering private phone...
Read MoreIt’s that time of year again! Summer is nearly here which means the Social Justice Fund’s annual “On The Road To Change” Bus Tour! Last year, I made it a point to keep my calendar clear so that I could join the tour on one of the two Saturdays that the tour happens. And based on that experience, I’ve been keeping my calendar clear since March, because as a Steering Committee member, I was privileged to receive this year’s dates back then. I have been waaaaaiiiiiiting for the on-line registration to open so that I could share this opportunity with you. Seriously, I’ve been so eager to share this with you that I volunteered to figure out how...
Read MoreSome of you may have noticed my recent posts in Facebook. Others of you may be wondering what’s going on with me. I’ve been going deep … deep into my healing and deep into my journey. Drum roll, please … and I just completed my chapter for the next Heal My Voice book project, titled “Empowered Voices”! YOU were my inspiration. YOU were at my back, pushing and cheering me as I navigated into uncharted waters. Let me rewind a bit so you can catch up. At the end of January, I posted The Physical Side to My Love Affair. It was a post that I wrote in November of last year and had been in the queue to post for a while. Honestly, I had lost track of when it...
Read MoreSince the beginning of April, I’ve been participating in a 3-month Energy Coaching intensive. The results that I have been seeing in 30 minute sessions have been mind-blowing. I’m convinced … the way of the future for both health challenges and personal growth is ENERGY. On the surface, it may appear that I am diverging from my yoga therapy and meditation background, but honestly I am not. Why? Because energy IS the behind-the-scenes reason why the Body-Mind Connection works the way it does. The way I see it, it doesn’t matter whether you start your transformation at the level of the Mind, Body or Spirit (energy) – they are all...
Read MoreNonviolent Communication (NVC) continues to be a huge part of my life, even though I no longer attend a weekly practice. I remain committed to sharing with you amazing opportunities to experience this for yourself because this continues to be an evolving learning for me. Most recently, I’ve been exploring my power dynamics in relationships, those areas where I continue to expect someone else to “make it right for me” or where I jump in to “fix it for them”. You may wonder “Power dynamics … NVC? I didn’t realize there was a connection.” Actually the connection becomes obvious when you learn that our usual way of...
