What thought barriers can you break today?

I love the story of the 4 minute mile Do you know it? Until 1954, no one was known to run a mile in under 4 minutes. All the fastest runners tried and tried and couldn’t do it. Until Roger Bannister did it. Suddenly all those elite runners who had failed were doing it. Running […]

What void will you fill?

It’s been almost eight weeks since I lost my mother. I was told that when someone dies, they leave a void. And when each person who knew them takes a piece of the void, the hole gets filled. I find this idea comforting. On the one hand, I feel my mother’s presence very acutely. On […]

Why can’t I just do the cleanse on my own?

You absolutely can. For sure. Here’s a class I taught all about how to follow my cleanse program without paying a cent. It’s a few years old, and I’m always impro ving my classes as I learn more, but you’ll get a good idea of how to detox your body, mind and soul. So why pay […]

Are you ready to renew and recharge yourself?

Every spring and fall, I gift myself with an inner tune-up. I love that I can do this for my body, And I attribute my high level of energy and clarity to my bi-annual cleanses, which help me remember who I want to be and how I want to live. I choose foods that are […]

How to do Mother’s Day without a Mother?

I was at an event with my family on Saturday night. All dressed up and fancy. Fitted little black dress. Feeling quite hot, if the truth be told. We walked into a crowded room. Not many seats left. Had to walk across the front of the room to the remaining seats. When I sat down, […]

What do you make your age mean?

Fabulously fifty today! I don’t usually pay much attention to numbers – of any kind actually. (Which makes me a bit of a hazard to live with, but has saved me much angst as I  get older.) But fifty feels important. Like it needed to be marked. I’ve felt the energy building for something very […]

Want to learn more about experiencing ease in your life?

The weather here is unusually cold. That. Is an understatement. It’s freezing every day. For Toronto. Which is always very cold this time of year! I can’t remember when I was more grateful for my learned awareness that I have full power over my emotions. Wherever I go, people are blaming the weather for their […]

Are you here? For you?

I’m reflecting on probably the most calming thing I heard last year. My Grad School and I committed to a Six Month Challenge in August. We each chose a goal and outcome and we’re working towards it by studying our minds and learning how to use them to create what we want. It’s enormously enlightening […]
