I’ve been asked numerous times over the thirty-five years I’ve been practicing daily Yoga if I would ‘teach’. (It’s a ‘cosmic joke’ that I’m apparently chronologically forty-nine. I feel perpetually like I’m twenty-eight, and sometimes like I’m fourteen!) For years I adamantly, though graciously, replied ‘No’. Yoga was my private, cherished companion. As a performing artist who was transparently visible onstage, it was my Continue Reading
‘What Tension Am I Holding That I Don’t Need?’ – Part 1
Here is another response to the request I’ve received from so many people to write a sequel to “Savasana – The Deepest Rest Around”. See also the recent post “Wander Time, Empty Time”. Enjoy! I began practicing Yoga daily when I was fourteen. I was introduced to it by an aunt who, at that time, would visit us a couple of times a year. As an observant, insightful teenager, I noticed that she would become very tense, agitated, Continue Reading
“Lifting the Lid III”
Next Tuesday, January 18, 2011 I fly to “Lifting the Lid III”. Three colleagues and I will ‘enter in’, while nineteen + others consciously, actively support us from ‘outside’. “Lifting the Lid” is the current phase of the ‘global consciousness awakening project’ I’ve been called to initiate and follow my cues to align consciously[1] for the past twenty years. It is an ‘experiment’ – an experiment in “what does it Continue Reading
This is a Story of Waking Up
This is a story of waking up, of remembering, of regaining consciousness. This is my story, and yet I believe it is yours - everyone's. Use my story as a template. Insert your details - passions, activities, personal events. And it will serve to funnel you open, too. Know that each degree to which anyone peels open, like a flower blooming, affects us all. We are all intricately woven in this, 'the big ripple'. Continue Reading

Recognizing Truth from Illusion
Immediately when I completed writing The Power of Anger -Blasting Through Your Limitations and Transforming The World – which flowed swift on the crest of H.O.P.E. = Healing Ourselves and Planet Earth - A Blueprint for Personal and Collective Change, I became aware of the title of the next book that would write itself through me – The Ego and The Soul. My husband, who is very intuitive, said straight and directly to me, “You’re Continue Reading
Trance – The Inherent Wealth of ‘Altered States of Consciousness’
I’ve recently had opportunity to be in the presence of Daniel Pinchbeck (bestselling author of 2012: The Return of Quetzalcoatl), Flordomayo (one of the 13 Indigenous Grandmothers), John Kimmey (a carrier of the Hopi Prophecy), José Arguelles (initiator of the Harmonic Convergence and the 13 Moon Calendar), Richard Tarnas (besteselling author of The Passion of the Western Mind), and John Perkins and Llyn Roberts (DreamChange.org). I can Continue Reading
How to Recognize Trance States
Many people evidently are not yet able to self-recognize when they are in trance. As with many highly beneficial aspects of our species’ innate wisdom, I wish that this were readily available to us in kindergarten and pre-kindergarten teaching. It is my sense that increasing numbers of people are experiencing trance – some frequently – and yet few have the tools to recognize, let alone understand, what is happening. Here are some Continue Reading
What Is Trance?
Trance is like being tuned in to radio station(s) beyond the frequency listened to and registered by typical states of mind. Trance is a state which allows attunement to information beyond the typical frequencies / information bands of day-to-day human functioning. As such, it is highly generative, highly creative, and highly transformative. A friend / colleague of mine refers to her trance experiences as “dancing Continue Reading
