Heart of the Soul

I believe that when we are born, we all are made of pure love. I believe that we are all bright lights that are good and sweet and loving and wise and amazing in every way. And that never changes. What usually happens, though, is that we forget our brilliance. We forget how loving and…

As I sat down to write this post, I settled into my chair, put on my headphones, took a few deep breaths, closed my eyes, and waited for the words to appear. And in that moment of sitting and waiting, I realized something: I was hungry. It didn’t make sense to be hungry – I…

When I sit down to write, I usually start by closing my eyes, taking a deep breath, and asking my soul to share what it most wants me to know. And then I wait. Sometimes for a couple of seconds. Sometimes for a couple of minutes. Sometimes for a couple of hours (thankfully it’s rare…

A year ago, I stopped eating sugar. Every time I ate something that either had sugar in it or turned into sugar during the digestion process, I felt sick. And so I completely eliminated it for an entire year: no sugar, no wheat, no fruit, no anything that remotely resembled sugar. And I did start…

She makes a comfortable living, lives in a nice house, her basic needs (and oftentimes more) are accounted…

Did you know that you could do or not do anything for the rest of your life, and it wouldn’t make a difference for determining your inherent value, how much you’re loved, how much you matter? Did you know that you’re already enough?  Did you know that all of the pushing isn’t necessary? You’re already…

I recently bought a pair of headphones – big, foamy headphones that are designed to tune out noise. I bought them because, as a writer, silence is something that I long for. Silence is what I absolutely need to be able to tap into my soul’s whispers and access my inner wisdom. Silence feeds me…

I have a cat, Buncom, who is terrified of the vacuum. Really terrified. In fact, when he sees me start to pick things up and get ready to vacuum, he immediately runs and hides. I don’t know where this fear comes from. I’ve had him since he was a tiny baby, and I know for…
