We are just days away from our annual AZ Goddess Conference and the energy is palpable. I look forward to this weekend all year. This year I am especially grateful for the love and support that the women always bring to this gathering. But what does it mean to recognize ourselves as a Goddess? In […]

Crystal Grid
Lately crystal grids have been showing up in my life. I’m familiar with the concept of crystal grids but never really worked with one. Until recently. I love crystals and have them all over the house. I know the names of most of them and the properties of about half of those from memory. Big […]
Wellness Coaching
The doctor was grinning when he entered the room. He shook our hands and looked at Tom. “How are you feeling?”, he asked with a big smile. “I feel great”, Tom replied. “Well your scan looked good”, said the doctor. I didn’t realize I had been holding my breath until that moment. Follow up tests […]
Energy Therapy
Energy therapy is a term used to refer to a variety of alternative and complementary treatments based on the use, modification, or manipulation of energy fields. According to Albert Szent-Gyorgyi, Nobel laureate in Medicine: “In every culture and in every medical tradition before ours, healing was accomplished by moving energy.” The language of energy is one […]
10 Years of Labyrinth Walks
Mother nature provides some of the simplest and best remedies. One of those remedies is castor oil. Known by the botanical name Ricinus communis, castor oil is extracted from the seed of the plant. Castor bean plants have large leaves, growing up to 2 ½ feet across, and bright red flowers, all of which are […]
Winter Solstice Is Near
It is a time to turn inwards, to be quiet and introspective. A time to sleep longer, rest and contemplate our lives. Winter Solstice is near. On December 21st, the winter solstice will mark the shortest day and the longest night of the year. The sun appears at its lowest point in the sky, and […]
Truth of Interdependence
Taking a leaf off the ground and contemplating it as an object in and of itself is very inspiring. Its shape and color, the way it feels in your hand, its delicate veins and the stem that once held fast to the branch of a tree – all of these qualities reveal a leaf to […]
Changing the Flow
You never really think about where crap goes until it doesn’t go there anymore. For the last 3 weeks, I have thought about where it goes every day. That’s because the septic system at the Peaceful Spirit Enrichment Center has failed. It’s like the Hotel California….water can come into the house but it can never leave. […]
Summer Solstice
In the Sonoran Desert, the summer solstice means that we are sweltering under ridiculous heat and the news people are doing stupid things to show how hot it is outside. One local station was watching a big block of ice melt. The word solstice comes from the Latin sol meaning “the sun” and sistere meaning […]
Full Flower Moon
The full moon in May is called the full flower moon. But who cares? Turns out many of us do care. You see we follow the cycles of the moon. A great keeper of time, the moon has influenced human beings since, well, since there have been humans. Long before there were electronic gadgets to […]
Beltane
May 1st marks the Celtic festival of Beltane, also referred to as May Day. The word Beltane originates from the Celtic God “Bel”, meaning the bright one and the Gaelic word “teine” meaning fire. It is a fire festival that reminds us to bring our ideas, hopes and dreams into action. Beltane honors life. It […]
Energy Rich Hugs
The first healer I ever met was a medical intuitive back in 1985. I didn’t know what medical intuitive meant but all the people at the resort where we lived and worked were excited that she was coming for a visit. I was 21 and a newlywed living with my husband in the Santa Cruz […]
