Superstitions and Beliefs
October is coming and that means Halloween: a time of spirits, haunted houses and superstitions! There are many fascinating superstitions such as “Never slam a door. You might hurt a ghost, who’ll haunt you for the rest of your life.” I remember jokingly being told by my older siblings as we peeled apples for apple…
Learning Math and Being a Stripper
Last week I visited my family in San Diego. While there I started thinking about the different ways we can live our lives. My dad lives in a retirement community and eats dinner there. However, he has chosen to eat his other meals on his own. He values his independence highly and so even though…
Abundance
A few weeks ago I went to Mount Shasta and hiked three miles on a snow covered road to an incredible valley at the end. It wasn’t easy, but it was worth it. I was struck by the trees popping up through the ground. These are the ones that are surviving now despite the setbacks…
Damanhur, Skulls, and Chiropractic Care
Last year at this time I was in the middle of my seven-week retreat in Damanhur, Italy getting clarity on keeping Songbird open. I’d love to be able to go on another retreat like this, but this year I have been too busy to do more than a short trip to Mount Shasta as everything…

The Four Agreements of Don Miguel Ruiz have been on my mind lately as I prepare for my class next week on Embodying the Four Agreements. I’ve been particularly noticing the effects of the third agreement, “Don’t Make Assumptions” in my life and the lives of those around me. This agreement seems more subtle to…
The Ripple Effect
The day before my Saturday Toltec Recapitulation Breathing class, I realized I had not sent out an e-mail to my personal e-mail list about it. I almost decided not to do it at that point, but I did. I’m glad I did. This is part of the Law of Attraction: holding the energy of what…
Unexpected Gifts
I love the unexpected gifts that life brings me. Yesterday I had a meeting scheduled at Songbird, and the person was running late. It’s a busy week for me, and I could have chosen to get upset at my time being wasted. Instead I was happily updating the bulletin boards while I waited, Because I…
Going with the Flow
Rain. Sun. Snow. Hail. We never what the weather will bring us. It’s always flowing. Just like life. When I remember to go with the flow and trust that everything I need will come to me,it does. I took this cloud picture during my trip to Damanhur, Italy last summer. The entire trip was an example…
