As I write this, I’m very conscious that if I’d undertaken this activity centuries ago, I would have most likely been hanged or burnt at the stake for the words I’m about to document. I’d have been seen as a witch, a heretic, crazy, and perhaps even a danger to society. But thankfully the year […]
This morning, I devoted some time to looking at past comments from members of our Facebook group. One stood out. The person was questioning how to distinguish an intuition from other thoughts, particularly fear thoughts. I found this question very relevant to this series on how to create a “Spiritual Good-life.” In part one we […]
Previously, we have set the stage for seeing how a “Giving Attitude” impacts our lives. In short, a giving attitude means staying alert to how we can help or give timely information to others. This attitude allows us to create a Synchronicity for those who cross our paths — where we deliver timely aid at just the right time to positively change their lives. […]

I’m sitting here waiting for freezing rain to bring a sheet of ice into our area. Last I heard, 40 million people in the US are going to get covered by this massive snow and ice. The good news? It may be one of the last storms of the winter. Spring will be next. In […]
Gratitude has become one of the most commonly recommended forms of self care and while I, like many others, have heard about gratitude journals, gratitude stones, and daily gratitude practices for years, I didn’t really believe it would work until I experienced it for myself. In theory, the idea of staying grateful for what we […]
In the Anishinaabe (Ojibwe) culture, it is believed that our intentions influence our power of co-creation.
