It was a year ago November that my first article was published in the Sedona Journal Predictions issue, their largest of the year.

Since then, I have had 10 articles published.

Now, I am happy to announce that I am published in the 2019 Predictions issue!

​My photo has moved up (top row, 4th in) and I couldn't be more excited! I'm geeking out!

2018 has really lived up to the hype.

Energy has been consistently chaotic, making it a challenge for most of us to get through a week or month with some sense of normalcy.

With my 2018 Predictions articles as our guide, I thought it would be an optimal time to review our growth for the year and prepare for the energy of 2019.

Greetings to you as we welcome the season of fall and a favorite holiday for many, Halloween! In this month's newsletter, I look at ways to prepare our mind, body, and spirit for the winter months as well as for the energy of 2019.

Thanks to the efficiency of social media and news outlets, we all now have immediate access to information from events in our local community to around the world

Being part of this global society can be trying on our mind, body, and spirit, particularly when we are also trying to make the best of our own lives.

​At times like these, it is helpful for us to asses how we are using our energy, ensuring it is acting as a positive force within our society.

Life gets busy in spring and crazy in summer. Days are spent trying to keep up with the movement of the sun, to then crash into bed when we know that is the only reasonable option left in the day.

​When the sun starts to slow and the leaves start to turn, our body follows suit. Moments have an air of contemplativeness. We are relieved to exchange an idle spirit for the hyper function of the psyche in the summer.

For the two weeks around Labor Day, the Reno/Lake Tahoe area involuntarily becomes host to the annual event, Burning Man.

I am local to this area, and proud to call it my home.

The hubbub around the event is quite the spectacle. 

Sometimes I find it entertaining. Other times it pushes my boundaries and patience. 

Looking for a good way to clear out the energy of the world and balance your mind, body, and spirit connection instead?

Get yourself to a deprivation chamber, asap!

All you need is a big pod, purple light and 1000 pounds of epsom salt, enough to suspend an entire body.

​In my case, I went to Balance Float and enjoyed a spa environment that acted as a gateway for a metaphysical adventure!

On a recent trip to a favorite bookstore, I found The Book of Hygge by Louisa Thomsen Brits. 

Entralled by the topic, I could not set it down.

​Hygge is pronounced somewhere between hoo-gah and hue-gah.

It is the Danish art of celebrating the magnificence in simple acts, creating deeper connection to the present moment and relationships with others.

Feeling stuck can be very debilitating. We are confused by what we don't understand about ourselves, unable or afraid to see our best next steps forward. 

Ultimately, we are being challenged by our ability to adapt and change.

If we take some time to explore, we create the opportunity to uncover the hidden guidance and wisdom inherent to this process, allowing us to find our flow again.

Creating a pleasing meditation space can be a simple and enjoyable ritual, easily adaptive to your surroundings.

To create the perfect setting, let your five senses be your guide.
