We often forget we have a creative side. When our lives become left-brain dominant, our right-brains kind of atrophy or fall asleep. You will know if your right-brain is sleeping because your pursuits at creativity are stifled or blocked. For instance, we may resist exercise, even if

However, as with any disease but especially with cancer, it’s important to focus specifically on the positive and what you can do, not what you can’t do. No treatment course will work without your support, faith, and complementary efforts. Even the American Cancer Society supports the use of holistic care in order to get the best results from cancer treatment. The biggest thing any cancer patient or family
Harmonic Inspiration for 2012
I have just come back from the retreat at the coast dedicated to harmony and sound healing. It was most amazing from start to finish. First of all, on Friday morning I received word that three of the retreat participants would not be able to come to the retreat. I asked myself if I should cancel the retreat… the answer, “No.” I had to go to the store to buy the extra food that I was expecting these people to bring, which caused me to get a later start than I had planned. By some miracle, I was able

The Inspiration of Conflict – our true work
I have had several weeks of intense learning and growth and I don’t think I am alone. Have you noticed that the biggest personal growth comes when we confront a nasty part of our shadow? And that no matter how much we try to blame it on another person, the discomfort we feel is where we are confronted by this, our own nasty shadow? I am beginning to realize that when we bump up against something that pushes a big button in ourselves we, out of instinct and repeated training, usually respond in one of two ways. Fight or
