What if I told you that you are an angel? I said this with a straight face, and by some miracle, you believed me. Perhaps we have forgotten our divine birthright and our wings have been packed away too long. What if I told you that by stepping into a higher frequency range our heart center changes and we have power to alter the world? Electromagnetic frequencies will shift as we remember this truth of angel-dom. With this shift others will also be affected. The earth underneath our feet, the air we breathe, the flowers, the birds and the bees will perceive a change in the field. It is now scientifically proven that we can make a difference simply by dusting off our feathers and stepping into gratitude.

Everybody talks about the Law of Attraction. But it can drive people crazy. You have no doubt heard a friend say “I don’t get it! I have been thinking positively and for a very long time about attracting a guy, who loves me completely and takes care of me… so why isn’t he here!” Well that’s not the Law of Attraction. Here is the true Law of Attraction: How I treat myself (and others) is what I get. If I love myself and take care of myself, that is what I will attract. All of the Wise Ones of the world say the same thing, in one way or another.

People with near-death experiences describe "going to the light" and coming back again. They were turned away at the crossover point because it was not yet their time

We use light as a representation of all that is good. It’s a symbol of what we each hope to reach in our lifetime. Yet, each winter we reach the darkest day of the year and began that return back to light.

Most of us know the general definition of "Embracement" simply means a type of adoption or acceptance of something. However over time, many terms morph and evolve and their definitions take on a deeper meaning. For instance, Roget’s II (1995) The New Thesaurus, Third Edition describes Embracement as, “A ready taking up of something, adoption, espousal; to include as part of something broader, to take up willingly or eagerly: embrace a social cause.” For one senior lecturer at the Anglia Ruskin University in Chelmsford UK, Ambra Burls, Embracement has a symbolic meaning—a social and personal growth process.*

There is a rapidly growing movement spreading among gardeners today. It’s called the Mary Garden. A Mary Garden is composed entirely of plants dedicated to Mary, by name, legend or history. Creating and tending a Mary Garden combines a gardener’s reverence for the Blessed Mother with the love of plants and flowers. The name “Mary Garden” comes from medieval religious art depicting the Virgin and Child in an enclosed garden amidst symbolic flowers.

In order to treat pain we must understand that pain management is a multi-billion-dollar industry. Pain management centers are popping up everywhere in the United States. Most of these allopathic centers include in their management plans which consist of both non-invasive and invasive treatments for chronic pain. This commonly includes narcotics, seizure medications like lyrica, as well as epidural steroid injections, and even surgery.

Over the past year I have been hearing, reading or talking about the immune system in one form or another. It’s not surprising with all the attention being placed on the swine flu and the continual hyper-attentiveness to germs, diseases and illness overall that immunity has become a growing issue. Throughout history disease and its spread has been a continual concern. As humanity has grown in population and spread across the globe, the fear has become even greater. From the earliest writings, which shared views about illness and disease, how it affected people, and how they related to it, I have noticed a common thread. Illness, in any form, has been viewed as a threat, punishment, an invader, aggressor, and even evil or supernatural force brought down by God or an enemy as punishment for wrong doings.

As my heart constricted and my stomach knotted, my eyes were drawn to the young man standing before me. On this spring day in the mid 90’s, my weekly psychotherapy session with him was proving to be as fascinating, challenging, and heart-wrenching as most of the others. He vacillated from fighting the demons within to coping with his fear of being seen, being unremittingly vulnerable and, very simply, being.
