Deepening the Solstice
It’s not made-up, that energy. That spirit. It’s not something the ad agencies came up with. Not something they could. There’s just something about this time of year. For some, the opposite is true. For some the pain of loneliness or loss take on a sharper edge in contrast to the joy all around us. The reason for that is something we'll explore more deeply, but its basis is separation from our Source. Our Higher Self is always joyful, and when we are not, we feel cut off from

Bask and You Shall Receive!
'Here's what happened.' –Adrian Monk I had just finished meditating out by the pond, and I lingered afterward watching the koi fish, and thinking how much I love them. My inner voice said, Yeah. We’ve been basking in them a lot this summer. And I thought, that’s true, I have. I’ve been basking in these 6 beautiful fish all summer, just sitting out here appreciating them every chance I get, every nice day. And now they’ve doubled, My inner voice reminded me. That’s right, I re

Everyday Mysticism Part 1
Part 2 Part 3 How to make ordinary life magical It came to me fully formed, the notion of how magical my everyday life is, how it got that way, and how I might share all of that with those who want more magic and mysticism in their lives. So I’ll begin with a series of posts right here on the blog, talking about easy ways to ensorcel our lives. What's a Mystic? Mystic: A person for whom nothing is mundane and everything has a deeper meaning, a spiritual side, and a messag

Obstacles; a New Understanding
I am, as we speak, writing what might just be the book of my life. I am as madly in love with this novel as I’ve been with few before. I can think of 3 out of 60 some-odd titles. And that, by the way, is why you haven’t heard from me in a while. I have been obsessed with this story. Back on topic. I’m not going to list them. I’m actively trying to let go of them, so why on earth would I hold them in place by focusing on them? Bad things happened, and then more bad things happ

LOA and Anger Management
What if I'm really pissed off? I read the above quote, and since I was, at that moment, feeling very upset with some people who’ve been misbehaving. This is a rare thing. Not people misbehaving, that’s not rare. But me, letting it get to me, is extremely rare. I mean not even once a year rare. So this felt like a big fat hairy deal to me. I had been wronged, dammit. And as soon as I saw that quote, I thought, “Yeah! I should show them this!” And then the Voice of my Higher S

Writers, Resolutions, and Bliss
But it also gave me a compelling need to write a sort of counterpoint to it. So this one’s for you, my sister scribes, especially my younger sister scribes. It doesn’t always have to be about doing more. Maybe it’s better to try basking more. All those resolutions I read in the piece were from writers, vowing to write more, to work more, to be online more, to market more, to advertise more, to work harder, to be better, to do more and more and more. I was exhausted by the tim

How to Meditate
HOW TO MEDITATE Get comfortable. Turn off phones. Set a timer for 15 minutes. Close your eyes. Breathe in slowly for 3 counts. Breathe out slowly for 5 counts. This is the rhythm of your breaths for the entire time. In for 3, out for 5. Find a soft sound that's not too loud, so you have to focus (but softly, don't strain) to hear. I listen to a stream if I'm outside. Indoors, the hum of the AC, small portable fountain, a clock ticking, anything. Thoughts will come. As they do
