I walked in on my roommate the other day and she was using another roommate’s laptop. Hers wasn’t working and she needed to get online to answer her emails. She is accustomed to her PC and this was a Mac and it was frustrating her. “I hate this computer! I hate this computer!” became her mantra. Energetically, her comments were knocking me for a loop and I pretended to be her and said to the Universe and to the others in the room, “I am GRATEFUL that I was loaned this computer so that I could do this work.

The births of my two children were two of the greatest days of my life, but their births could never compare to the amazing birth of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. The birth of Jesus may be the greatest story that could ever be told. A virgin mother, the King of all kings sleeping in an animal’s feed trough, angels and terrified shepherds. It doesn’t get much better than that.

A tavola, non si invecchia. "At the table, you don't grow old," declared my first year Italian instructor. Perhaps that was true in Italy - but not at my house, which was kind of frustrating, being that I’m Italian. I loved cooking and entertaining but often wound up missing the party because of the over ambitious menus I planned. By the time I finally got the food on the table, I felt older than the aged cheese on the antipasto tray. My intentions were good; I pictured mys

Empowerment, that’s a good thing ~ right? Any time we have the ability to empower someone to do their best or make good decisions, it’s a positive in their life. So how do we get caught in the trap of negative empowerment? And what exactly is negative empowerment?

One of the greatest challenges in communicating with God is stilling your mind. You may ask "What does stilling your mind have to do with communication with God"? Here's the thing. We all have ideas about God. We have expectations about God. We expect ways in which God shows up, speaks, works, moves, etc. These expectations are the result of religious training, societal training, and parental training.

When I first became a student in the School of Metaphysics my teacher used to say, “If it’s simple and it works, it’s metaphysics.” I have always remembered that. Metaphysics is simple because it is Universal Truth. Truth is profound, clear, and direct. I think sometimes people forget that. They think that something has to be complicated to be meaningful. The School of Metaphysics sponsors the National Dream Hotline® each year (the last weekend in April) to educate people around the world about dreams. Freud became known for the truth that every dream is about the dreamer.

Here’s what you do: The object you will use for this lesson will be 5 self-standing candles. Line the unlit candles in a row on a sturdy table facing the children.

The American Heritage dictionary defines fear as a "feeling of agitation and anxiety caused by the presence or imminence of danger." Fear puts the body in "fight or flight" state, ready to respond to a physical threat to our survival. Most of our fears, however, are not based on physical threats. They're based on perceived threats, or more accurately, about some future event that usually has a low probability of happening. A Course in Miracles tells us, “Only your mind can produce fear.” Fear is a powerful emotion.

A young Catholic growing up in the years preceding Vatican II would find it very curious to find that scriptural teaching is the “Soul of all theology,” (Dei Verbum, from Richard Gula, p. 165, REASON INFORMED BY FAITH). My experience as a student in a Catholic elementary school during the ...

It is getting cooler outside, and we begin the time of year where we share gifts with those we love. The spirit world also likes to join in on the celebration by giving us gifts. They bring us so many gifts throughout the year that oftentimes we mistake them as coincidence or we simply ignore ...

Even a casual observer of the world around them will acknowledge that we are living in times of great change. Weather patterns are much more variable, political changes are occurring around the world and even religious views are changing at a very rapid and sometimes dramatic rate.

In times gone by, humans were more in tune with the environment they lived in. Today, we have little connection to nature and the planet. The ancient wisdom that was often passed down through story- telling and tradition seems to have been forgotten or lost.

With all the changes that are happening on earth at the moment, some of this information is being revived.

The term “psychic” has been taken so far out of context, and has become so blemished, it is nearly impossible to believe we will ever have a spiritual “homecoming” when looking to the English language for the meaning of this term. A psychic is one who uses God-given gifts ...

When change happens, when we are caught in a place that feels like a maze, when life seems to throw us a curve ball, it is in those times that I am most grateful for the investment in my personal practice and life skills that are continually expanding. Sometimes the emotional winds are cold, and can bite at our comfort in ways that seem to penetrate our very existence. If we are not aware, or practiced in the skills of personal balance, our lives can be tumbled around leaving us confused, and with the feeling of being weakened, lost, and/or boxed in.

Why would we undertake this journey of discovering our past lives? What good could possibly come from digging up old memories and hashing through events of the past? I frequently am asked those very questions. Those making the inquiries usually state that they are so overwhelmed with the issues of this life, why would they want to add more to deal with.rnPast Life regression gives us gifts that further the spirit’s quest for consciousness, existence, self-discovery, and enl

Call it intuition or a gut feeling call it what you will. Listening to the still small voice with in. It's hard to hear in this busy noisy world. It's hard to hear yourself think let alone to hear the still small voice of the spirit. We need to turn up the volume and turn down the noise in the back ground in order for us to hear the message "God would like to give us. We miss out on some important instructions in life because we can not hear the still small voice of the spirit.

This is another exercise first introduced by Abraham Hicks that I have found to be extremely helpful in creating more money in my life. Quite often many of us say that we want more money. But because the idea of "really having" a lot of money is so foreign to us - we find it very hard to create it from our current experience. Because we continually experience lack and are so used to working from that perspective, it is very hard to "really" imagine what having a lot of mone

The child looked at the sky as trying to understand its meaning, dimension, depth. He had heard some stories, some happy and others sad. The happy ones said that the inhabitants of heaven were always joyful, as if the celebration would last forever. But he had also heard that heaven is the place ...

Exodus 3:7 says this: “I know their sorrows.” How comforting it is to know that our God cares enough about us to have compassion on us when we are full of sorrow.

Here is a fun Bible object lesson to help them remember that God knows their sorrows too. Here’s what you do: The object you will use for this lesson will be a recording of a baby crying.

Think about the women in your life. Friends. Mother. Daughter. Sister. Work colleagues. The woman at the checkout, the bus stop. Even behind the counter at your local cafe for your very much needed morning coffee. Do some of these women you know seem to be radiantly glowing? Why do some of these women, but not others still look fabulous after kids, after a long day and after their 40’s well into their 50’s and 60’s? We are all Goddesses, but these women are living in th

Psychic senses come in many forms. Most people know about clairvoyance, but I wanted to list the rest of the “clair-s” so that you are familiar with them all. You may have one or more of the following, but usually one is stronger than the others in each individual. -Clairvoyance - I thought I would start with the easiest. Clairvoyants see visions in their mind. You may have the impression that this is the only way to psychically know something, but don’t limit yourself to this way of thinking. There are other ways too.

Sacred geometry symbols come from the patterns of nature, spirit, and various mystical concepts.

An open relationship has been debated in many meeting place whether it would benefit a committed relationship or not.

They believe that open relationships would hurt the couple more in the long run. In fact, many experts claim that most couples end up breaking apart after getting into open relationships.

This time of year can be very difficult for many of us who have lost a loved one. Holidays are not the same without their presence. But what if they never really left you? What if, on special occasions, they were very near.

Most people long for or have an image of a true love that they nourish or search for all their life. Depending on the level of consciousness, true love can mean something completely different for different people. On the level of the physical well-being, love is the satisfaction of vital ...

Everything happens for a reason. Most people have an unfilled sense of longing for something they just can never quite put their finger on. Our modern world is so full of technological distractions that it becomes nearly impossible to hear the inner voice that comes from somewhere deep inside you. What most people lack is a spiritual completeness , a personal connection to the rest of our vast and awesome cosmos. There are very few people that can rally the clarity of thought

In our society today, we very much live in the ego. The ego was formed when we decided to come to earth and inca ate as humans. We made the decision to separate from God and the ego was born. It works very hard at trying to prove to us that we are separate from God, and that we need to hide, play small, and suffer.

Zen: “People are like tea bags. We can only tell how strong they are when we put them in hot water.” Why is it that it takes an enormous challenge for us to wake up and make a shift in our lives? We all know stories of people in dramatic situations overcoming great obstacles and coming out strong. We also know that some people in the same situation fall tremendously and sometimes even ruin their lives. We look at the same situation and see two different outcomes. We can look at two sisters who have gone through a gruesome rape, a nightmare for any girl.

We all know what it feels like to be 'in love' . It's incredible and can even be addictive! Sometimes we can barely eat or sleep, as thoughts of the other fill our mind incessantly. But when this obsession wears off, we are inevitably left with feelings of disappointment. Why is he not the way I want him to be? We begin to feel a lack of satisfaction, and this is the cause of so many failed relationships. So what is this thing called love and why does it seem so fleeting?nnTo

What does the concept of Oneness really mean? Oneness describes that we are all a part of the same source and that at the soul level; we are the same energetic being. Oneness goes beyond physicality and represents a connection to every living being in the Universe. Therefore every thought, every experience, is felt by all, even if only like a small breeze. Oneness means that everyone has, or will be, everything and in this space there is no place for judgment, since what you are judging in another, you too have been.
