When the Ego Rules! (… or tries to)

As someone who has worked in the healing arts for the last 30+ years, traveling the nether regions of our world and universe in order to communicate with other species, both present and departed, I find I am often shocked by how others involved in […]

The Power of Intention

As all good friends know, I had a meltdown when I lost my guardian angel Great Pyrenees, Bear, on October 12th. By the end of September, the writing was on the wall, I was going under emotionally, and so I put myself on a strictly […]
