SOL7; illuminate mind, body, soul.

I am proud to announce that the Mother/Daughter collaboration is complete! After my Mother passed away, I collected all of her Art Journal work and wrote a true Tell All blog about what was really behind each piece of expression. ASK THE MUSE is now up for purchase on Bookemon.com!!!! THANK YOU for all your love and support. I was sure that this book was available to be read online for FREE for those that are unable to afford their own hard copy. I invite the world to read about my wild life! XOXO

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 m

During my Reiki certification class, they spoke about something called "Life Force Energy." LFE is was flows through us, allowing us to feel alive. Our energy, our being. Our spirit. Last night I had a dream that a little boy died. He was bitten by a large black snake that sent him flying off the boat he was sitting on with his family, and then plummeting into the ocean below. He drowned that day. In this dream I approached the scene of the crime only day s later to find that I was able to witness the entire event unfold as if it were happening again. Like watching a television show on a re-run. My heart was heavy and I began to feel fearful until the soul of the little boy appeared before me and said, "Don't be afraid of death because when you die you get the chance to feel EVERYONE'S Life Force Energy, all around you, all the time." I woke up immediately. Last year on this exact morning, Facebook has reminded me that I blogged about being woke from

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

Last night I had the most incredible dream. I was fast asleep next to Julitto when I woke to noise from the other room. I opened up my door to find that across the hall, my guest bedroom door was open and the light was on. There, sitting right on the bed, was my Mom. Looking AMAZING!!!!! I ran to her with Julitto right behind me and we just sat down next to her in awe. I couldn't stop touching her and telling her how great she looked!!! There was a glow to her face , her skin and eyes were bright and flawless, her hair was longer, and I swear, "age wise" not a minute over 40. She just kept smiling and kinda laughing a little, as if to take full ownership in the fact that she knows she looks this damn good now. There was also a lightness about her - as if not one single worry existed in her space. We chatted for a few minutes (I barely remember about what exactly) but I mostly just sat with her in joy. I couldn't wait to inform my Dad so I got up and ran downstai

I cannot count the number of times over the years that I have extended an invitation to my cardio class to be met with the response, "I can't dance." Everyone can dance. Everyone can paint, draw, color, play the Bongo drums, and sing. Are you the best? Probably not. I know I am not!!! (LOL) But I do it all anyway. Music, movement, and creativity are all forms of outlets. Ways to open up a few of our 7 Chakras and let out expression, feelings, thoughts, and self . Yeyyy self!!!!!  :)  Speak without using your voice. Just...DO IT. Dismiss what you think you "can" or "cannot" do, and do it anyway. The only ceiling that is put on us, is by us. So set yourself free and get to expressing. These are 3 paintings I created over the last couple months... I painted the Angel wings during my Mother's final few weeks, to remind myself that Hell may rise, but it is not stronger than Above. Your flames of fear and sadness will be smothered and put out..
