Wanna avoid that 3 pm slump? Take a Spirit Break... We've all had co-workers who take cigarette breaks throughout the day, so why not take a break of your own (sans the nicotine) to give your brain a rest and recharge your Spirit.

Step outside for just a few minutes and breathe deeply. Let the outdoor air fill your lungs and boost your energy. Feel the warmth of the day and the sunshine on your skin. Let the drama of the office slip away and release any anxiety you have over your projects or deadlines.

Know that when you return to your desk you'll be better able to handle any issues that pop up during the rest of the day, and that this little break in now way interferes with your your workload. In fact, it will make you more productive, more relaxed and more fun to work with!

Tyler driving
Well, it's official. My son is turning 16 and, like all 16-year-old kids, he can't wait to get his driver's license.

We've been practicing all summer. He's driven me to the grocery store, swim practice, doctor's appointments, you name it. He's a good driver, a safe driver, a responsible driver. But I'm a mother; a loving mother, a protective mother, a nervous mother.

So mothers of the world, I ask for your support and advice. Please share with me your stories, your coping tools and your prayers as I prepare to hand the keys off to my son in this exciting, scary and inevitable right of passage!  

 
What A Week! 08/07/2009
 
Wow, what an amazing whirlwind of a week I’ve had! Monday (a day I used to dread like the swine flu) I spent a rewarding day working with some really wonderful private students. These one-on-one and small group classes allow me to connect with people on such a personal and spiritual level. Not only am I able to offer my students support and guidance along their path, but they provide me with valuable feedback and the human connection that help me to become a better spiritual teacher. What a fantastic way to start the week!
    
I’ve also been fortunate enough to schedule quite a few tarot readings this week, which I find wildly fun and fulfilling. It just doesn’t seem to matter how many years I’ve been reading cards or how many readings I’ve done, I’m still in awe of the way Spirit moves through the deck to bring about the answers that people are seeking when they need them the most. I must admit that after leaving corporate America a few years ago I was pretty nervous about stepping back into my life as a psychic. But the feedback I’ve received from the clients I’ve helped has shown me that I am definitely in my element and that I am walking my path in truth and beauty.

And, the icing on the cake of life this week (and I do love cake) was my Thursday night Full Moon Welcoming Circle – Aura Cleanse & Psychic Healing. I was so moved by the incredible energy of the group of women who joined me for this event. Honestly, sometimes I am so humbled by the quality of people that I cross paths with on this fantastic journey through life that I have to pinch myself (figuratively speaking of course). But the best part is… for the first time in my life, I really LOVE the work I’m doing! I love working with other women and creating a safe space for us all to share, learn and grow. I love walking my path with purpose and joy. And I love knowing that the work I do enhances the lives of other women just as it enhances my own. So yeah, it’s been a really great week and I feel really blessed right now!
