"It is not only what we do, but also what we do not do, for which we are accountable." – Moliere \ The blaming game is one of people’s favorite past times. We offer excuses. We deny responsibilities.

According to the wisdom of that great expert on romantic love, Walt Disney, all one needs to do to find true love is look for the sweet face of one’s Princess or Prince, feel the power of love sweep you away, and you will live together happily ever after.

In my last article, I stated that the greatest benefit of meditation may actually be an increase in consciousness. The metaphysicists tell us that everything has consciousness (awareness).

Self-Hypnosis Meditation, hypnosis, and self-hypnosis all trigger a response in the nervous system that gets us into an altered state of consciousness. In this state, the subconscious mind comes to the fore and the conscious mind takes a back seat. Some say that our subconscious mind knows everything, remembers everyth

I had a great session with a wonderful Medium the other day.

How do you look back and look forward at the same time? When a serious diagnosis of illness or surgery hits you, you have to plan for treatment, support, doctor visits, time, and money.

Getting used to saying "I'm sorry" is something which we are usually taught as a child when we are in the process of growing up. Some learn this lesson more quickly than others! To have to say that you are sorry is essentially a spoken acknowledgment of you having been in the wrong over something or other. Most of us d

Almost every child is furnished with a copy of Aesop's Fables to read and appreciate during the course of growing up.
