A place to release stress, build resilience… and embrace your inner wisdom
I haven’t blogged much about sound likely because I’ve been exploring so much. When I’m learning and exploring, it’s hard for me to stop and say, “Here’s what I know” because the knowing is growing.
I have arrived on a level with sound when I know I have enough to share and words to explain what a I know… perhaps.

“The power of positive thinking” was published by Norman Vincent Peale in 1952. That was before even I was born!!! Without referencing the book in particular, the concept of positive thinking feels empty to some, an energy of fake happy, if you will. But positive thinking for me is visualizing good results, reaching goals, great happiness. The energy created by these visions is uplifting and empowering. Positive thinking isn’t a magic wand that instantly drops a Porsche in your driveway or fixes a negative bank balance. But herding your meandering mind towards positive visions is a choice that long term pays great benefits.

It’s January in the northern hemisphere. Here in Ohio, this time of year often brings grey and cold. A great season to bundle up and wander the sleeping forest. Or to snuggle at home with a cup of tea. Pretty pictures perhaps but what piece of the puzzle might be missing? While we slowly navigate this quiet season, our thoughts and dreams don’t have to sleep.
You are alive in a magical time of transformation. The world and her inhabitants are shifting levels. Truly, I think it’s the humans that are shifting. Our plant, animal, elemental friends, the earth, the planets, the cosmos… they’re already at a balanced, healing, sustainable, loving, compassionate level. Now it’s time for humanity to evolve.
This transformation isn’t something that arrives external to you and fixes things so you feel better. The transformation is you, in you, of you… in and of each of us. Awakening, enlightenment, 5D energy… whatever you call it… to me the transformation is a simple thing.
Happy new year!! I love this time of year. It’s my time to really go deep with where I am in life and where I want to go. Are you pondering your intentions, resolutions and dreams?
Here’s a bit of encouragement if dreaming about the new year isn’t filling you with joyful anticipation.
Visualization- “the formation of a mental image of something.” Call it imagination, dreaming, anticipation… visualization is the “movie” of your life that you run in your head. An important factor about those thoughts that you regularly spin in your brain is that they are energy. Yes, what you think about is real measurable energy. That energy affects you and everyone around you.
It’s the holiday season!!!!
What does that mean to you? Each of us is so different so of course, I encourage you to do you!!!
For me, this season is leading up to the winter solstice and that’s my true time of celebration. It’s funny that it’s just wired into me that way. Christmas is fine, but the solstice always brings me some real gifts. Continue reading “it’s the holiday season!!”
I live my life in widening circles
that reach out across the world.
I may not ever complete the last one,
but I give myself to it.
I circle around God, that primordial tower.
I have been circling for thousands of years,
and I still don’t know: am I a falcon,
a storm, or a great song?
by Rainer Maria Rilke
English version by Anita Barrows and Joanna Macy- Original Language German

Oh great, another new term… what do I need to change now?
If this is your reaction, relax. I’m not asking you to change one more thing. I’m asking you to change everything. LOL
Lifestyle wellness is a term I love. I embraced it after reading “Lifestyle Medicine Handbook- an introduction to the power of healthy habits” from the American College of Lifestyle Medicine. We all need a bit of light reading, right? Continue reading “Lifestyle wellness”
My year of travel continues as I’m back in the land of the Big Water. I’m not really seeking answers or searching for something new. It’s more savoring what brings me great joy. After breakfast, I’ll have a hike to commune with my dear friend, Lake Superior.
I’ve been on a grand adventure in Peru. I’m still processing so much of what I experienced here. This blog allows me to share what I’ve made sense of so far… things that might be helpful to “normal people” like you. hehe. Although I know many of you are the “not normal” flavor and would have loved to have been trekking thru the Sacred Valley with me, my friends and the Q’ero teachers communing with nature beings and learning about Andean spiritual traditions and Incan archeology. Wow… that’s a mouthful. I’ll try to work on those run on sentences. Continue reading “Leveling up as a human”
