22 Ways to Instantly Raise Your Energetic Vibrations
Between internal self-talk and all of the external influences, it's not uncommon to feel depleted, tired, unmotivated, overwhelmed and even depressed. For that reason, I've created this list of 22 ways to instantly raise your energetic vibrations.
We are created to express and feel love, joy, happiness, enthusiasm, inner-peace and so much more. We find all of that in genuine acceptance and mindfulness. However, sometimes it feels like we are fighting constant battles of just the opposite.

Are You Operating From Fear or Love
One of the biggest lessons I've learned and incorporated since my spiritual transformation (in June of 2014) is the simple question, are you operating from fear or love. Simple question. Huge ramifications. One soothes the ego. One feeds our soul.
Fear is masked in so many ways. We literally fool ourselves into believing it's only real if we feel like our life is in danger. Or, the feeling we get when thinking about taking a glass elevator to the 120th floor (if we're scared of heights). Or,…

Why I Went Vegan
Surprising things happen when you travel deep into your spiritual journey after a life devoted to a traditional religion. Things I did not expect or anticipate. Things that are my new normal and I've found that I'm not alone in these transitions. This latest really caught me by surprise.
I must admit that I'm a bit apprehensive about using the "V" label. I don't like labels but it's the closest description I can use. Not for a second did I foresee this change when I started my awakening over…

5 Ways To Live Truthfully
It has become obvious to me that we have a big problem with telling, hearing and accepting the truth yet we find candid and honest people quite refreshing. It's why Donald Trump is, well, so popular despite his harsh words. (By the way, I originally published this on Aug. 20, 2015.)
Here are 5 ways to live truthfully (based on typical scenarios) that don't require bad hair or being a billionaire. (I s-w-e-a-r, I started thinking about this pre-Donald). Let me preface this by saying that I …

My Purpose Is To Love
If you would have told me that my ultimate purpose in life was to love and then return to God, I would have had a difficult time accepting that premise.
I worked hard throughout my life, always pursuing my professional goals with vigor and determination. Gotta say, I've accomplished quite a bit since my first job (waitressing) in 1975. I'm sure you've done and feel the same or close to it. That started to change, however, last summer and since then I'm now clear that my purpose is to love - …

What Am I Here To Do?
What am I here to do? What is my purpose? What am I supposed to be doing with my life? Why am I here?
How can we not ask ourselves these questions at some point in our lives? Most of us want to contribute value to the world and feel like we make a difference.
It's especially a problem when you've been in the same kind of work for many years for security and finances but not because it feels worthwhile and fulfilling, or when you've devoted your life to raising kids, or when you are not only i…

Angels, Synchronicity & A Fitness Transformation
Original post date: Summer of 2014. After nearly 40 years of always having a job (or several), I took six weeks off this summer other than a little bit of fitness work. I was coming off of a major career disappointment and I was exhausted from the emotional up's and down's. I was actually exhausted overall from non-stop to-do's and goals for my entire life. Little did I know that my days and hours would soon be consumed with angels, synchronicity and a different kind of fitness transformati…
