As this year winds down, I’ve begun trying to truly follow my intuition and heart, and do what I’m most compelled to do each day, regardless of whether it seems productive or not. Mostly, these days, it does not feel like anything I would call “work.” Part of me is afraid of going broke, but […]

Everyone is talking about the humpback whale in New York Harbor, breaching and tail-slapping in front of the Statue of Liberty, and of course, being an everyday Mystic, I immediately wanted to explore the metaphysical symbolism.

Repeat after me. All is well, and all is well, and all is well. Take a nice deep breath and open your mind to the possibility that everything is exactly the way it is. And be okay with it. Parts of it are actually very good. Most of it is good. Take another deep breath, […]
