You Can Change the World - Here’s How

As we get well on our way into 2020, it’s become abundantly clear that many on this Earth are not behaving in the best way that they can. In fact, there seems to be an epidemic of awfulness in the world. From Global Warming to Powerful Sociopathic Leaders luring the unconscious to new levels of low on to the Hollywood Elite profiting from ridiculous unnecessary products like candles that smell like a vagina. Yes, these previously unheard of, products, actually sold out. This

Happy New Year

As I do every year on New Year’s Eve (you probably do this, too), I think about the last 12-months of my life and contemplate just what went on. Was it a good year? Did some bad things occur? What good things happened? Was I grateful enough? Did I learn anything? Am I a better person or…a worse one? Do I feel grief for anything? What made me smile and what made me weep? Oh… So many laughs and way too many tears. We said goodbye to my best fur friend of 17-years and turned aro

Four Years Later (The Continuing Aftermath of Suicide)

I want to say that it’s a little better with each passing year, and it is…but marginally. I still get taken aback by the rush of grief that spills into my daily routine, unannounced and unwelcomed. The tears still sting and the ache in my heart really isn’t any less. It’s just less often. There are daily reminders of his existence on earth and in my life; I’m grateful for them and accept them with grace. He still is and always will be: the one that got away. Only his ‘away’ w

W.E.I.R.D.

Are you one of those people whom others call -weird- ? Yeah? I am, too. I grew up thinking I was weird, and for the 1st 23-years of my life, believed that the OBO’s I had when I was a child (out of body experiences) were nothing more than elaborate dreams that taunted me. I was fascinated with extraterrestrials (I blame my dad for getting me hooked in Star Trek when I was three) and ghosts. Anything paranormal was interesting and wonderful. Faeries? I believed in them! Magic?

A Very Merry Christmas to You

Can you believe it? Nearly another year has passed. 2018 will soon, slide into 2019 in a silent hush, and humans will pause in the moment, then brace for another rally with themselves. Aren’t we a funny species? So much fear amid so much love for our very own. I hope I live to see the day when the realization sets in that we are all one; the differences we fight about are pointless and non-valid. I think this will be the last Christmas for some in my life; notably my nearly 1

Taking Care

It’s been a while since I’ve had the energy to write a blog post and I thought the reasons why (anxiety/stress/fear/grief) would be a good topic, and how we need to look after ourselves during difficult times. Maybe you’re one of those people; you know, that person whom everyone else relies upon. The Dependable One. Is this sounding familiar? You are that individual that people turn to when times are tough. Maybe someone has lost a family member, or your neighbour was in an a

Connecting to the Other Side

When I connect to spirit during a reading, most often it’s instant, but not always. As a conduit and messenger, the information that I get doesn’t always make sense to me and that is because the information is not meant for my benefit, it’s meant for my client’s. During the process, I often ask if I’m on the right track. If my client says yes, or nods, I keep going. If they stop me and say no – I try again. Psychics are not magical beings; we’re humans and just like anyone el

Succeeding Through Failure

Think of the last time you failed at something. I’m going to bet you can recall it in great detail. In fact, I know you play the entire scenario in your mind, over and over; a mini movie that you pause at certain intervals to capture and digest all of the littlest details. We analyse our failures with incredible precision to see how/why we didn’t make better choices. We do a lot of: If onlys and what ifs. If only I didn’t do that, this other thing wouldn’t have happened. If o

Judge and Jury

I’ve been writing a bunch of words and coming up with all sorts of themes but I haven’t managed to birth a decent blog post in awhile. I’m hoping this one will see the light of day. If you’re reading it, clearly there was a winner. There’s so much going on at the moment in this crazy, beautiful world of ours but I keep seeing a recurring one, that being, judging others. We do this all the time to each other and to people whom we don’t know and have no idea what their story is

Money and Happiness Are Not Synonymous

When we picture money in our lives (especially a windfall) we feel all giddy about what we can get for ourselves, what adventures we can afford and all of the potential GOOD we can do with it. So it stands to reason that having money = happiness, right? No. In fact, although money is an essential means of existence and to ‘not’ have it can and does cause unhappiness…it’s not money in itself that creates happiness or negates it. Let’s be clear. Money is nothing but a medium of

Becoming

Over the past decade or so (probably a bit longer) I’ve been obsessed with personal growth. I decided long ago that I wanted to be the best possible ‘me’ that I could during my stint on Earth. I do believe that you can reinvent yourself every new day and every moment, you can choose whom you want to be. Before you think I’m standing on a soapbox, pointing to my halo – I’m very, very far from Sainthood. That said, if we are conscious of who we are and who we want to become, we

Ringing in the New

Welcome to 2018. Here we are, again, looking down the road of yet another year and posing the same questions of ourselves, as we do every year: Will I be happy? Will I be safe? Will I be loved? Will I have enough money? Will I accomplish what I want to? All of these questions bubble up within us like anvil clouds before a massive thunderstorm. They build and grow; becoming worries that sometimes expands into anxiety. It seems every year becomes more surreal and more difficult

The Letter

A while ago, I took a little writing course. One of the exercises I had to do was write a letter to myself (from my future self), one that I'd read, back in time. Of course, I had to choose the most difficult day of my entire life to send this letter to: the day after Brian took his life. I found this exercise most powerful and healing. I will incorporate this into my Coaching sessions as I think it's valuable to people. Feel free to give it a try. May 12, 2017 Hello me, It’s

Why Aren’t We Teaching Children How to Manager Their Minds?

I’m taking an online introductory course in Counselling and I’m currently reading a book called: The Skilled Helper. It’s interesting. I’ve barely started and already I’ve noticed that there is something very important and fundamentally missing in our Western system: we do not teach our young how to manage their mental health. At least, not on a large scale. We show them how to take care of their bodies through eating well and exercising. We teach them to read, write and prob

The Aftermath of Suicide

It’s been two years to the day that the man I loved ended his life; an odd anniversary of sorts and there is still so much to say and so much that I’ve already said. I feel, sometimes, that I’m endlessly repeating myself. So, I’ll be somewhat brief. If you’ve known someone or loved someone who has experience with losing a person to suicide, or intimately understand what it’s like because you’ve been through it… Be gentle. Be kind and be empathetic to those that have survived

Meditation Step Two

I want to touch again on breathing because it’s the quickest and (as far as I’m concerned) only way to get into your ZEN mood. Yup – it’s all about the breath. Slowing it down immediately relaxes you and allows you to focus and live in the moment. Remember, the only time that exists is the NOW. The past can’t be recreated and the future hasn’t been created yet. The only thing REAL is happening to you. Right. Now. Take a moment to process that. It’s okay…I’ll wait. How many ti

Meditation – Step One

I have a lot of friends who struggle with meditating and I want to provide an easy way to explore it. I haven’t always meditated. In fact, it’s only really been the last few years that I’ve done this religiously, every day. And…I started out with only 10 min. per day to see if it was for me. From there, I’ve discovered a ton of online-guided meditations and have now developed my own method that works for me. That said, what floats my boat may not be for you. It’s a discovery

Lighting Up the World

There is a lot going on in the world; I’m stating the obvious, here. International political relationships haven’t been this bad in a long time. I think there are various degrees of concern. While many simply go about their day-to-day lives and never give war/poverty/violence on a Global Scale a second thought…there are others that are all too aware, that if unchecked, this could escalate into something really, really, bad and before we know it, we could be plunging into a th

Conquering the World

Sometimes we want to change everything all at once and are impatient about having everything coming together in a timely manner. When things start not going according to our plans, we can become frustrated, angry and want to give up. This is the time to: Stop. Listen, and weigh in to what’s really happening. Are we taking on too much? Is everything falling apart because we have too many plates spinning? This is more common than you think. We live in a fast-paced world with in

It’s New Year’s Eve and here we go again. We’ve all done it, New Year’s resolutions that promise ourselves we’ll be: thinner, happier, healthier, make more money…blah, blah, blah. But what, other than joining that expensive gym you’ll hardly visit, come March, have we actually put in place to achieve these goals? What processes have we worked through to discover WHY we are not what we want to be in the first place? In order to ‘fix’ our problems, we need to find the core of t
