When we think about healing with Western Medicine, we often think of it as a direct cause/effect linear process.  For example, when a person has a headache, they take a pill.  And if one pill is good, two pills are better.  And then the headache goes away.  When we transition over to the world of energy healing, we can also see that sometimes a certain amount of energy healing can directly result in a certain amount of physical healing.  But other times it’s more involved than that.

Working with dogs for most of my life, I have come to realize that, even though we are so different, we have more in common than I first thought. Take meditation, for example. Much of what was taught in puppy kindergarten directly translates over and informs my meditation practice. Here are some of the things I learned: Read More

Yes, it’s that time of year again. And try as you might, sometimes there just isn’t any avoiding the family gatherings, the ‘playful’ banter, the distant relative who is the ‘worst-case scenario’ expert and last but not least, your mom … who likes nothing better than to push your buttons. It’s almost like a sport.

Well, this year can be different. Sure, your relatives will all be the same as they usually are, but YOU can be different. You can stay cool. You can be unaffected by their nonsense.

We’ve all seen the photos … dogs with signs around their necks, confessing the terrible things they have done while home alone. Yes, they’re cute and funny. And as long as the signs are just talking about what the dogs have done, I’m happy to click through and move on.  But one I’ve seen recently took a slightly different approach. Instead of describing the dog’s actions, it actually labeled the dog itself with the message, “I am a bad boy.” Seems simple enough. Until you evaluate the energetics of that sign. Read More

My transition from litigation attorney to Energy Healing Practitioner/Instructor didn’t happen overnight. It was the result of a number of incremental paradigm shifts over time.

It all started when, after experiencing chronic stress and not having any tools to manage it, that (no surprise) my body got sick. I, of course, turned to Western Medicine, only to be told that there was only so much they could do and that there were certain symptoms that I was going to have to live with. “Really?” I thought. Not being the type to take “no” for an answer, I started exploring other healing approaches. Now remember, I was born and raised on Western Medicine. I basically didn’t know anything else. For me, Chiropractic was “super-exotic.” But I stretched my comfort zones and explored chiropractic, massage and acupuncture. Read More
