Monday, 03 March 2014
Most often, people who have the experiences of feeling so out of sorts that it is identified as panic and/or anxiety, wish they would die rather than have to continue having the experience.

Stepping into your life
Monday, 20 January 2014
This is about the time, each year, when discouragement is creeping in about sticking to New Year Resolutions. We hate when that happens, often to the point of just not making any resolutions. That, however, is a missed opportunity. We all want to be our best self. To make a resolution is really about having

Sunday, 01 December 2013
This is the opening of a new month, on the heels of Thanksgiving and the beginning of new holidays where everyone is in a flurry and feeling joyous and also terrified about the stress of it all. Not to stress — relax, breathe, be happy, put a smile on your face until it makes you

The idea of self determination
Sunday, 22 September 2013
When I think about each and every single thing that I write, even when it is about faith, the underlying theme is self determination.

Friday, 16 August 2013
Life is full of surprises and yet I am never surprised at how people behave when they think their life is really over. When someone is coming to a close on this life experience, they talk about many of the same things and yet the focus is singular — I WANT MORE TIME. I
When it comes to the discussion of faith…
Monday, 12 August 2013
People often talk about the problems with organized religion instead of placing the focus on their soul. This is a mistake. Any time there is conversation about what human beings are involved in, there is an opportunity for pathology to surface. Pathology is the maladjustment to this life, to this reality of what is accepted

My work and my personal life are about as entwined as possible – by design. I aim to live the life I write about, talk about, and profess. I find myself needing to make adjustments all the time because I am motivated, highly motivated, to keep on reaching to become the person who is the
