I'll be returning to Jerusalem this year, a journey I used to make yearly for almost ten years, to visit my daughter who lives there with my sweet grandchildren. It's a long story, and one that I hope you'll be reading in book form in the very near future.

Anyway, several factors have prevented me from returning to Israel on a regular basis, a trip that wasn't on my calendar for 2010...UNTIL...

Talk at Bagua Bookstore

It was an interesting time to have traveled to Miami to conduct an "RIR." A sweet gal showed up at Bagua Bookstore, where I was doing a presentation and book signing. She was dressed in hospital scrubs, looking tired and stressed. Turns out, she had been tending to Haitian earthquake victims that day in a Miami crisis unit, those who had recently been flown in...

Miami RIR

The Miami RIR was hosted by a long-time apprentice, a psychotherapist. She and her husband live in a lovely condo high-rise with a magnificent view of Miami. (I'd been invited to stay with a delightful gal in another high-rise—also with an incredible view!) There were other therapists in the group, very much in tune with the style of my work.

Sandpoint, ID

Weather in Spokane allowed me to drive up to Sandpoint, ID for a presentation at the Gardenia Center, where I spoke to a lovely congregation of spiritually awakened folks. I was hosted in a beautiful home by an inspiring octogenarian (of 85 yrs!) and met another at the workshop I conducted after the talk.

I recently saw the movie about the famed aviatrix, Amelia Earhart, starring Hilary Swank. I thought her portrayal was endearing and convincing, but felt that the movie itself didn't address the ongoing mystery regarding her disappearance...

   My dog passed away last thurday night and it's been among, if not the most painful experience in my life. She was the glue that held my little world together, and looking back I know how I could have saved her "now." Part of dealing with grief is acceptance, which I have not been able to do as of yet, perhaps in time, but sometimes there are just things you never get over. I came across your site, in particular a page about going back and changing ones past...

I've decided to give the new TV series, "Flash Forward" a try, all the while determined to maintain a conscious effort to limit my viewing ("vegging") time. I like much of what's out there these days, movies, TV and books that deal with the subject of time travel, the illusion of time, and stories that get us thinking about multi-dimensionality and the notion that reality just might be a whole lot different than it seems...or contrary to what we've been taught to believe.

Have you noticed how little it takes to push peoples' buttons these days?—as well as your own? Emotionally charged triggers exist within all of us. They are wired to memories of unresolved matters - resentments, hurts, fears, unmet needs, rejection, you name it. Unless we actively observe what's going on in our minds, triggers will control us, like robots. We'll find ourselves (and observe others) reacting to situations with greater emotional intensity than the moment would seem to call for.

   My dog was my heart. Since he left almost two years ago, I haven't had much hope for anything. I miss him terribly.

Clients have asked that the "2-fer" special be made available for Fall consultations and Holiday gifts. Given the twists and turns in this fast-changing world, many of you are seeking intuitive guidance for help with immediate challenges.

Simple reminders can go along way these days to bring us back to center—back in the beam, where the Light can shine through, from where our lives look manageable, and things come back into sync. Here are a few things ro remember that might do the trick:
