Secrets To Living a Divine Feminine New Year

2023-06-19T22:20:33+00:00

I’m in the desert at the Goddess Temple outside of Las Vegas. An unlikely place for a Divine Feminine oasis? She’s needed here: across the highway is a military training zone. Crikey. Perched in the sunshine on the edge of the desert--just after the reflection and review of the year at Solstice. It’s a rare slow moment for replenishment after a busy summer, autumn, and holiday season. It's the beginning of a month long road trip, letting spirit lead the way.  Part retreat, part vacation, all about rejuvenation and connecting with the possibility that’s in front of us. It’s time

A Christianity We’ve Never Fully Tried

2022-04-18T21:51:54+00:00

Growing up Catholic, Good Friday always seemed to be named wrong. (I mean, what was so good about a crucifixion, except a day off from school?!) I've strayed from that path, but I've always been drawn to deeper story not always told. The hidden wisdom traditions. Even before I received guidance and "met" Mary Magdalene in meditation her real story was compelling to me. Ok, obsession. In the Christian Gospels we see her prominently in the Easter story, and yet her importance has been downplayed. Her story corrupted. But her time has come. As I've deepened into the mysteries of

A Missing Link Is Re-Awakening Now

2020-08-11T20:01:08+00:00

A reader commented on an article on this blog last week, and upon review it seems relevant. So I freshened it up a bit, to share with you. It's timely because we're all going through various waves of emotion as our world is so deeply unsettled. So much loss, uncertainty, unclarity, lack of real direction... Not knowing what's next can really eat at our core sense of Self stability. Unless we find a deeper source to align with. We find it together. In community. With other who reflect the Truth we know inside (when we forget.) Sisters. We find

Notre Dame Burns: Symbolism & Next Step

2019-05-01T21:17:23+00:00

My heart ached all day. I felt a visceral pain in the center of my being after hearing that Notre Dame de Paris had burned. Such a powerful, potent place, such depth and presence of the sacred feminine infused in the walls, window, & statues there. My first thought: how does a stone building burn? And then, what is the symbology of the collapsed roof and steeple—the most masculine aspects of the structure—mean? Day 2: Gratitude. I awoke feeling incredibly blessed to have visited and experienced what I did, when so many have not. And have been musing about

Time to Step Out & Offer More of Who You REALLY Are

2017-08-19T00:48:22+00:00

Lately I've talked with several colleagues who feel called to shift their work in big or subtle ways. See if any of this sounds familiar: One talented acupuncturist knew what she wanted to be doing, but wasn't taking action. There were lots of conflicting opinions swimming in her head. Once we addressed the internal confusion/conflict at the root, all kinds of purposeful action happened. A multi-passionate therapist I know is feeling called to something bigger inside her. She isn't clear of the details, but knows what she's doing isn't reflecting all of who she really is and what she offers.

The next BIG possibility in your relationships

2016-04-07T06:46:22+00:00

Discovering This Relationship Can Change Everything In our culture, the myth of the ‘Soulmate’ is strong — the belief that, if we just find the right one, they will bestow perfect happiness on us. Through trial and error, we eventually discover that our fulfillment cannot be dependent on another. We are called back home, to discover the Soulmate Within. And that through cultivating our own inner love affair, we pave the way for another  - a true soulmate union. So when I was contacted and invited by my new friend (and true soul sister) Shakti Malan, Ph.D., to participate in her the Soulmate Within Summit, I

Go Where your Soul is Already Calling

2015-12-20T08:42:41+00:00

A Perfect Portal to Inner Wisdom this Solstice This season more than ever a deeper pull has been moving in me. I've avoided the holiday commercialism. Maybe it's the huge transition and uplevel to owning the Balch Hotel, (plus getting the spa up and running and coordinating with new teachers and chefs for special events and retreats.) The holidays can be external expressions of busyness and business, but inside it's getting quiet. I love that at this time of year we are drawn to cozy up with chai tea and journal in big sweaters. Decking the halls with boughs and twinkling light galore. We had 8" of snow yesterday

A Honest Moment

2014-09-24T06:59:12+00:00

A few months ago I gathered a circle of women in my local area who were hungry for more meaning, connection, creativity and sacred space at SisterSoul Salon. (I offered this only to those of you on my local list, so if you didn't see this, that's why.) it was a big hit--lI even added a second gathering to accommodate everyone.The  ladies loved it, It was clear that they wanted more: they told me so!  But I wasn't ready to hear it. (I had a new juicy program to offer and I was excited about it.) I was so intent

Taking the Medicine Again

2014-07-01T08:36:32+00:00

Here we are, Independence Day--beyond hot dogs, flags and fireworks, what is it really? It’s that day in the US when we celebrate our separation from an archaic, monarchic system and started to create something new, different, egalitarian and self-governed. A more expansive way to lead a nation. Regardless of our opinion of it now, we can step back and see what a cool and courageous experiment this really was. How do we take this leading edge impulse for freedom and creative leadership into our lives now? Maybe because it’s summer, I’m noticing many are feeling this call for freedom,
