Unbending oak tree vs. flexible grass

Are you like an oak tree that was best served in the past, by being strong, rigid, and protected from the “winds” of life or are you like the beautiful flexible grasses that bend with the winds? The mighty oak limbs can be snapped off, or broken as it cannot bend with the winds of change, while the flexible grasses blow and thrive. As I thought about this metaphor, I realized how much I had […]

Talk about a trauma trigger???

In 2007 & 2008, my Mom and sweetheart Ray died a year apart from each other. Both of them were bedbound, in my care at home, and both had many, “on the edge of your seat” trauma events that happened BEFORE they actually passed. Ray almost died twice before he actually passed away. I was the ”ROCK” for both of them, but I lived in huge fear and overwhelm during their illness time. I was all […]

When our inner child is still scared…

Mr. Rogers said the following: “In times of community or world-wide crisis, it’s easy to assume that young children don’t know what’s going on. But one thing’s for sure — children are very sensitive to how their parents feel. They’re keenly aware of the expressions on their parents’ faces and the tone of their voices. Children can sense when their parents are really worried, whether they’re watching the news or talking about it with others. No matter what children […]

A gun is not the reason

As you read through this story, Why Did Nancy Lanza Love Guns? the author of the article embraced guns because of past fears and attacks. I want to share a deeper positve alternative to fear–fear of any kind, not just gun related. I talk in terms of energy and what “symptoms” mean at a deeper level. You will never outrun emotions or patterns that are driving your fear, BUT you can release that bunched up energy, the feelings, the emotions of events, the pain, […]

Resolutions, heredity and energetic patterns oh my!

What’s the difference you ask? I have seen so many people label something as being a family issue based on heredity–like weight, addictions, anxiety, illness, failure…you name it and I am likely to look for another reason it exists. Why? Because I believe we learn HABITUAL PATTERNS very early in our lives and pick up and lock into emotional, and physical energetic loops without even knowing it. Let’s look at anxiety as an example. I’ve […]

“ADD” anxiety might actually be a “PTSD” response! What???

I am not a counselor. I’m an energy coach, so read this as an energy point of view. When people tell me that they feel like they have ADD, I begin looking for what happened early on in their life. Where might there be an energy link that trained them to think that postponing getting something done could avoid pain, or where did they see someone else run from this to that without completion, or what might’ve taught them that they […]

The coffee house shocker!

Talk about a coffee house shocker! After a downtown event, a friend and I went to get an evening snack at a coffee house. Shortly after settling at our table, a young woman set up her “study room desk” on a table directly across from us. Right next to her was a gooseneck lamp which beamed like a spotlight right in our direction. I motioned to her to change the light since it was very […]

Decision Fatigue?

Do you have decision fatigue? Is your brain just feeling tired from making so many decisions and choices? I remember telling a friend that I felt brain tired and weary of making so many decisions all the time. I started to feel like I couldn’t decide on anything regardless of difficulty. My ability really suffered when dealing with ESPECIALLY challenging options such as computer issues! I have to say that I felt comforted to […]

Her cold felt better after tapping!

Her cold really did feel better after tapping! Symptoms are trying to get your attention to say that something is out of balance. Sickness, success blocks, relationship, money, and health issues are ALL SYMPTOMS. They are NOT the problem, though our culture treats them as such. My client has an ongoing, very stressful, family member illness issue that is most likely not going to get better. It appears to be a transitioning “out” situation for […]
