Your internal world — the reality that you experience within your mind
and emotions — is a world that you and only you control and create. You
may be able to manipulate your exterior world (ie: change jobs to get away
from a bad boss, move to a new home to increase space, reshuffle your
finances to improve your future security, etc.), but it is the world
inside that you really have the most influence.
Here is a case in point. I have a client who gets upset Read the rest of this entry »

Transformation is a process – and we need to be patient in the transitions – I have found that to especially true about the midlife transition. I like the word transition – but I don’t always like the feeling!
I love dragonflies and so, I’ve done a lot of research on them and have learned a lot of lessons.
In one of the sites I researched, it said that “People with dragonfly medicine are dreamers. They can be perplexing and annoying to others. The dragonfly person may appear almost Read the rest of this entry »

After working most of your adult life in the same field, there comes a time when two powerful words enter your mind: career change. And for working women considering a midlife transition, there’s a bit of advice Mark Twain left society about 100 years ago: “The secret of success is making your vocation your vacation.”
Twain’s remarks are simple and succinct. If taking a chance on another career has become a priority, then it should be a dream job of sorts, or fairly close to it. There are dozens of reasons why Read the rest of this entry »

After our conversation, I began to think about which pieces of music would best suit your service. And since I don’t yet know a great deal about your Sunday services, I had to go a little on instinct, buoyed by your request for ‘lively’ music.
So I decided to just ask the Universe what would work best for you, and the very moment I intended to ask, I was immediately drawn to The Butterfly Song, which comes from my ‘humanity healing’ album, entitled, ‘For All I Care’.
I don’t know whether you ever did ‘butterfly prints’ as a child; those paintings where you paint one half of a piece of paper and then fold it over, so that the paint prints onto the other side of the paper, which is then opened to reveal the image of a butterfly. I remember them fondly and much later came to see those butterfly images as a metaphor. One side is a mirror of the other. Which is like how the universe faces itself. The Yin and Yang. How people often see externally what is actually within them.

I received this this morning, and thought of everyone in mid-life who needs to experience more self-love – starting with me! It’s about a new movie -Doors Opening – the message is from Cheryl Richardson…
I’ve just finished the “I Can Do It” conference here in Toronto and, before I go to bed, I wanted to share some of my notes with you from an extraordinary documentary that was shown at lunch today. The movie was called, Doors Opening, and it’s the story of the work Louise Hay did with men Read the rest of this entry »
