Sacred Sundays
No doubt due to my Catholic upbringing, I hold Sundays as sacred even though I no longer subscribe to an organized religious dogma. In my youth, Sundays meant attending Sunday mass and getting Dunkin’ Donuts afterwards. As a young wife and mother we made it family day and either went out for crepes or we…

Interfaith Ministry
“I’m not religious. I’m spiritual.” I have heard this more often than not in the past 15 years. It is how I’ve described my own Faith system for more than 30 years now. And it is exactly why my compulsion to serve in a spiritual role led me to my recent induction as a First…

Soul To Sole Sacred Space
Being raised strict Catholic and then a young adulthood of exploring many religions I find comfort in rituals and know the importance of taking time to connect with Spirit. I no longer resonate with organized religion, but I do resonate with connecting with other like-hearted Souls with soles (live people, as opposed to just spirit…

Making Your Life A Masterpiece
Today I saw a meme that had this to say: The past is your lesson. The present is your gift. The future is your motivation. As I read it, I heard loudly these words in response: The past is your portfolio. The future is your inspiration. The present is your canvas; Paint the shit out…

Thus the era of DIY was born and stores like Home Depot, Lowes’ and Menard’s got their boon. My husband remodels and renovates homes for a living and the pitfalls of DIY are…

My Divine Quest
I have been on a quest as of late, to discover -for myself- an understanding of ‘Divine Feminine’ and ‘Divine Masculine’. The Quest started with my search for the Divine Feminine and how I could connect with it more, since I have been experiencing left sided physical issues. The left side is energetically aligned with…

Heal Your Feminine
Everything in this world is a balance of Yin and Yang – feminine and masculine energy. Both are equally important and thus must be equally nourished and fostered. However, yang qualities tend to be favored disproportionately. In short, Yin has the qualities of darkness, moon, feminine, shade, rest, sunset and North. Yang has the qualities…

Integration
What do you know about integration? To integrate: “verb [with object] 1 combine (one thing) with another so that they become a whole: transportation planning should be integrated with energy policy. • combine (two things) so that they become a whole: the problem of integrating the two approaches. • [no object] (of a thing) combine…

Let’s Talk “Spiritual Bypass”
Have you heard this term? It has become a new buzzword in the personal and spiritual development worlds. First of all, I find it redundant. What I understand spiritual bypass to be is nothing more than regular old denial/distraction, with a spiritual flavor. No need to call it something else. Secondly, its really convenient for…
