Hi everyone, ever since I was in Thailand this past November, I’ve been getting more bold! On December 5th, I set myself a 60 day challenge to upload a video to my FB page every day. These are 1-3 minute videos, on some topic that comes to mind, or an experience I or clients have had (no names given of course : ). Uploading videos in this way was new to me. In the past I’d ...

Here we are in the month of November and some folks are engaged in planning for next year. On January 1 we not only step into a new year – we step into a new decade.
Wow!
So, I’d like to ask you a question: what are you planning so that you complete this year strong and enter the new decade with momentum? Do you have a vision for that, and what you’d like to achieve? If so, what is it?
Or, have you decided that there isn’t much ...

Today is a day we honor those who have fought for our freedom, including those who gave their lives in service, that we may experience the right to live and speak freely, create, evolve and become more and more aware and awake to what Life is and offers.
How often do you take a moment to appreciate the life you are living? the people who love you and you love? and the experiences you’ve had and the gifts and opportunities you have to contribute?
There’s a saying that, “you don’t ...

I saw a post on Facebook, a few months ago, where a man was dancing to a tune. He looked like he was having a lot of fun. I then started to see others dancing to the same tune.
I got interested in watching some of them. Everyone appeared to be having fun, and each had their own “spin” – their own unique expression, though the tune was the same. It was the “Git Up Challenge”. Did you see it?
Not long after, I started to notice the tune ...

Our thoughts are more powerful than we give them credit for. They are running 24/7, directing our emotions, actions and results. If we think we can, our thoughts will be constructive and solution oriented. They will be aligned with the goal and we will see opportunities we might otherwise miss. When we believe we can, we find the way.
When we believe we can’t, we may not even take the first step, ...

Today is election day in Canada, and we have the opportunity to exercise our franchise and vote.
I grew up in a family where mum actively worked for one of the political parties, and dad was equally interested in another. Mum was the more vocal, so her voice and opinions tended to dominate.
In our childhood, the opinions of our parents often become our opinions or we rebel and take an opposing view, don’t we? That sometimes continues for a very long time.
It’s part of the programming ...

There is no private thought –
We walk around with our thoughts all day and sometimes all night long, speaking only a portion of them out loud.
Yet are you aware that there are no private thoughts? The Universe hears every thought you and I think. And if that is too much for the scientists in the crowd, we do know that at the very least it registers the frequency of the thought. We are broadcasting all the time – from whatever channel we ...

Recently, and in less than 12 hours, I was involved in 3 separate conversations about the difference between deserving and entitlement.
In one conversation a parent was feeling pressed by her son, who was in his late 20’s, for money, a car, and other items. In another conversation a teacher was commenting on a younger colleague, 30+ or so, who believed the government ought to be subsidizing her so she could purchase a home. This younger teacher also felt she wasn’t being paid enough and ought to ...

At the time I didn’t realize it was actually her paradigm or pattern of thinking that was speaking.
Yet one need only watch some of the talent shows to witness the fallacy of the “start small” and have to “work up” belief. People of every age come onto those stages for their opportunity. ...

“The decision to let go of that which has completed its course in your experience is even more important than the decision to welcome new ideas” – Raymond Charles Barker.
Yet letting go of the old isn’t our normal experience here on planet earth, is it? We often go through life piling up hurts, sorrow, pain, guilt and the like from things we’ve done or had done to us. Some of us horde ideas, others horde things. We often believe we are justified in one way or ...
