When Modern Medicine and Shamanism Meet A friend and student of mine recently underwent a double bypass heart surgery. (I’ll call her “C” for privacy.) It was a scary procedure, for sure, with not only the hours she endured through surgery, but also the months before that experience in which she ignored signs of pain,… read more

Last year I knew I’d be working with Big Stuff – the kind of Spiritual Energies we all get to work with as Lightworkers. In fact, new information constantly comes through in dreams, meditations, coincidences, and as new awareness of the way in which transformation happens. Through various starts and stops I became keenly aware… read more
What Your Cells Remember A guy walks into a restaurant and sits down at his favorite table. The waiter comes by to take his order. “What’ll you have?’” he says. “The usual,” the man replies.
