THE PET FACTOR


In the last 2 weeks, three different friends have to come to me in hopes that I can help them re-home their pet. I do what I can via Facebook tags, spreading the world, and thinking outside the box. The larger picture however, is what frightens me. In the 33 years that I have been alive I have only had to "re-home" a pet once....and truth be told, she was never mine. I helped a family I love very much take care of her for a couple months until they found a way to keep her. My ex-husband kept our cats, and the only dog I ever had besides Tao, passed away years ago. There is a major different between life emergencies and "I don't feel like doing this anymore." I am finding more and more that the "it got too hard" has been the staple for ditching their once very loved fur-babies. My stomach is twisted and my heart is growing angry. I do NOT want to be the nucleus for judgement and am fighting multiple urges to open up my mouth. That would be a grave mistake. In times of misunderstanding I must attempt to remember that I cannot walk everyone's path for them. I do not agree with leaving your puppy in a crate for 9+ hours a day, failing to pet-proof your house for their safety, or neglecting the needs of both a cat and/or a dog...but yet, I see this lazy parenting behavior everywhere. Today I will mediate and ask for better compassion that I am currently lacking. My frustration and finger pointing will not help these animals, nor will it benefit my own soul growth. Hopefully, my raw and open blog today will invite some of these owners to reach down deep into their core and pull out selflessness and patience, as I will be doing the same to rapidly adjust the negative filter I am looking through.

REIKI vs. READING

As my Reiki practice continues to grow strong, I find myself more than ever, hyper-focused on the client in front of me. My intent is not just to help them feel more at ease, relaxed, and tranquil, but to assist them in unblocking any old energies that may be stuck and hindering their natural, healthy, organic energy flow. I aim to clear away old emotional baggage, balance & activate their main Chakra points, and leave them feeling refreshed and recharged. ( My favorite is the white light bubble of protection....but that's another blog.) (((wink))) This past weekend, after a session with one of my Reiki clients, I could not deny the overwhelming sensation of depletion. I felt exhausted in a way that I have not felt during other sessions. After crashing into a full afternoon nap, I woke with curiosity and reached out to a couple fellow Reiki Practitioners for advice.One conversation really struck my soul and changed my perception, permanently... Since day 1, almost a year ...

WHERE DO YOU RESIDE?

There is this place called "All-About-Me-Ville" and it's growing population is astounding. I should know, I was nestled there for years. I lived right on the corner of Self Ave. and Centered Drive. (LOL) Okay, so you see where i am going with today's blog. Here's the real deal - I moved out of that zone about a year ago. It took several steps for me to officially awaken and grasp the concept of what life would be like if I took a bow on the stage of lif e and allowed the spot light to shine onto someone else's performance for a while. Truth be told, it was the most freeing sensation I have ever experienced!!!! The irony today is that I run into individuals that still patrol those streets on the daily and I cannot help but bounce back and forth between dumbfounded and frustrated. Not sure if you're one of the residents? Or perhaps you wonder if you have crossed paths with a narcissist? Here is how you can tell: 1) Do you find yourself having to repeat...

RICE BOMB

In just a few short weeks, I will be reaching the 8 month mark on being free of soy, dairy, and grain. (I also do not eat meat or take in alcohol, but those reasons are very different blogs LOL) Yes, I am a walking fruit & vegetable medley. I have never felt more focused, fit, energized, and relaxed. My body is a clean vessel for passing energy, both receiving and manifesting. Last night, I felt terrible. My body was all achy and I actually had a headache. Super we ird and out of character. I was unsure why, but blew it off best I could, and went to sleep before the sun was fully down. I rose from bed this morning, busted out my morning fitness routine, and took a shower after lunch. Before stepping into the tub I couldn't help but catch a slight glimpse of my nakey-self. I paused...how incredibly swollen i appeared! Bloated all around. And then it hit me! Light a light bulb drawn above my head as if I were a cartoon. I quickly ran downstairs and reached for the ONLY new thi...
