  • Sentinels – What Are They, and How Can I Use Them?

    Sentinels – What Are They, and How Can I Use Them?

    A sentinel is what it sounds like, something or someone that stands guard. If you do metaphysical work at all, it’s my humble opinion that you consider energy protection. One of the simplest ways to do that is to use a sentinel. You may have heard them called by different names, but they are objects…

  • The Gratitude Challenge

    The Gratitude Challenge

    Gratitude is something I don’t express enough. Certainly not to the universe. I’ve challenged myself to a seven-day gratitude challenge. For the next seven days, I’m going to sincerely thank the Universe for everything. You might be wondering why I don’t do that for everyone and everything in my life. It’s due to my noticing…

    How Do You Define What Matters? (Trigger alert: Suicide)

    This article is about a hard subject that keeps coming up recently. Suicide. If you’re not interested in this, feel free to step away now. I have been guided to stories and people who have been discussing the topic. It’s a sign to throw in my two cents on the subject. I’m coming at this…

  • The Beginning of the End

    The Beginning of the End

    Over the past few years, the universe has been teaching me a lot about endings. I’ve never liked endings. No one does, but I especially don’t like them. Years ago, there was a TV show with which I was obsessed. It had a good long run, seven years. At the end of year six, I…

  • Are You Blocking Yourself?

    Are You Blocking Yourself?

    We are our own worst enemies. Most of the time, the person standing in our way is us. We say or do things we don’t understand and can’t explain. There are a lot of psychological techniques that can help create a bridge to cross over our foibles to get us moving forward again if we…

  • The Tangled Web of Beliefs

    The Tangled Web of Beliefs

    When a situation arises sometimes a belief you never knew you had smacks you in the face. This often comes up in metaphysics. When someone is stalled in an area of their life, it’s usually due to some kind of energy block. Many methods of energy work can remove them, sometimes permanently, but if the…

  • The Power of Storms

    The Power of Storms

    Have you ever noticed that people either love storms or hate them? I think the reason for that is the same. Power. I happen to love storms. Keep in mind that I have never lived in areas where there are tornadoes, but I have lived through two hurricanes while I lived in Hawaii. I remember…

  • The Major Pitfall of Fear

    The Major Pitfall of Fear

    Prefer to listen instead of reading? Check out the Audio Blog Page. Everyone has fears. Some of them are rational, and some are not. Some people have more fears than others, and we all know someone who appears to be fearless. The thing about fear is that sometimes it can pop up when we aren’t…

  • Looking For Signs

    Looking For Signs

    If you are into metaphysics at all, you are familiar with signs. We ponder over things in our lives, and when we’re unable to figure out what to do, we put it out to the universe and then look for signs. We look for things that catch our eye or listen to what others tell…

  • Want versus Need

    Want versus Need

    I’ve been contemplating this concept for years. Being that I live in the US, accumulation is the name of the game. He who dies with the most toys wins, but does he really? After watching several episodes of Hoarders and then taking the time to clean my house again, I think about the accumulation of…
