Be Still And Know …

Be still and know I Am God… ~~Psalm 46:10 Hello all 🙂   Blogger slacker strikes twice in a week, how bout that? I’ve had lots of calls and emails this week about things going on in Japan, in the States, in personal and professional lives…lots of stress for people right now.  In times of stress–and I realize this is counter-intuitive for some folks–but in times of stress, I think it’s helpful to remember that usually the best thing we can do is get quiet, regroup, get still and just breathe.  It is only in the present moment that you can  hear the still,...

What Love Is

Posted by on Feb 14, 2011 in Emotions, Grief, Happiness, Healing, Spirituality | 1 comment

Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs.  Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth.  It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres….And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love. ~~1 Corinthians 13   Today’s post is a direct cut and paste from What Love Is, by Ayya Khema, a Dharma Teacher.  Born in Berlin of Jewish parents in 1923, Ayya Khema escaped...

Death is certain.  The time of death is uncertain.  Knowing this, what is the most important thing? ~~Buddhist wisdom I’ve thought about that question a lot lately.  My mom spent several days in the hospital recently, which means I’ve spent a lot of time at a hospital as well.   She is home now, sleeping soundly, and I write this from their house. Today was more doctors, more tests, more of walking the path that comes at this stage of the disease she is living with and dying from.  It is an interesting path and an interesting time. While that is a personal thing, I also have been...

Surely Goodness and Mercy will follow me all the days of my life and I will dwell in the house of God forever… ~~Psalm 23 Hello all 🙂  I’m going to be off the grid the next several days, but I wanted to do another 2010 post before I leave.  It seems like a good time for a few “best of” posts, so here ya go…  It is interesting to me that I originally posted this one in July, but I won’t have to change a single word for it to be applicable again today.  A lot of folks are having a rough time right now, it’s been a deep year for a lot of people.  I...

Distance Healing

Posted by on Dec 23, 2010 in Emotions, Happiness, Healing, Peace | Comments Off on Distance Healing

“And God declares,  I will restore you to health and heal your wounds…” ~~Jeremiah 30:17 A few months ago on the Blessings Blog, I started a conversation about distance healing.  In the first post, I talked about science and research regarding distance healing. If you are interested, you can find that information in a post here. Several people have asked me about distance healing lately, so I wanted to post that article again here.   If you would like to learn more about healing in general, I wrote an article for The Heroic Journal about the difference in healing vs....
