Remember Your Brilliance

Out of my rhythm The white sky has me thrown, when did the sky become winter.  Here in the north the sun shines a lot in the winter, and this is good, while it has little strength - it stills shines - the colour is more white than the fire of the summer. It's white, and seems more quiet in a way. This is alright. I like the seasonal changes, I like to follow rhythms. I am right now in a busy, time, with travel, and my spirit seems to want to settle and to be more white, to be quiet...to still shine, yet in a quiet winter sun sort of way. My travel has me moving between these two energies, the fire of movement, of change and the desire to be in the quiet background, shining. I have been teetering again between what my business is and what I am actually doing. Have you felt this way before? During sessions I deal in the intangible world of energy and intentions, and then I see the results through client success and change. I love what I do, love the interaction with cl...

Get dressed. Show up. For the past two weeks I have been involved in self experiment of sorts; getting dressed. Now, don't get me wrong, I get dressed most days.  In the recent past, there were days pajamas were the attire for the whole day. Pajama day.  Easy, relaxing and comfy. These days, I'm on a bit of a roll with changing my habits.  I have been working with myself to change the way I move in the world, and it occurred to me getting dressed first thing may be an easy change to do. I thought it would be uncomfortable and I wouldn't like it. Since I love quiet reflective mornings I figured my pajamas were the perfect costume for this. I was mistaken. Being ready to create the day is more in my style it seems. It has been very easy in fact - getting up and getting dressed right away has lead me to more productive days. As I consider - it's possibly because I get up, get dressed and begin - the day has started - and since I am already dressed, there is...

In the past, I have, and maybe you have been the subject of name calling in hurtful exchanges. On more than one occasion, it was suggested to me, because I was 'supposedly so loving and enlightened' their behaviour was acceptable and I was simply expected to forgive and carry on. I did forgive. I also carried on, while maintaining personal boundaries. However, in recent days things have been niggling at me, and it occurred to me, because people perceive me as enlightened and loving, it may give them permission to say things bluntly to me, with the intent of being hurtful. I do consider myself loving and I do have moments of what I say is enlightenment and a deep understanding of myself. What I also am, is human; a spiritual being, having this human experience. I am being human.  Which means the power of their words, and the hurt filled intensity can sting and temporarily blind my heart. When people say things to purposely hurt or to get a rise from me a...

Grover was a great source of inspiration for me this morning.  You see, he was stuck.  He had gotten himself into a place where he felt he couldn't move and he couldn't see any options or way out.   He would bark occasionally, mostly h e stood there,  frozen.   Yesterday when he was stuck there (yes, this is a repeat event) -- I actually thought he was stuck, like you know, when you stick wet skin on some cold metal; because the first time I went out to get him -- his paws were in wet ice.  This was not the case -- so I grabbed the scruff of his neck and brought him forward enough for him to move along on his own.   This morning, and no  treat could move him from his spot - no reward big enough for him to move.  He was immobilized.   I went out and once again lead him to the exit from his self inflicted trap.  This time he  took off -- his pent up energy needed to be used, released.   This had me thinking. I bega...
