Are you an all-or-nothing kinda person? Many of my clients suffer from being all-or-nothing.  It was the best they could figure out a long time ago for feeling safe, in control, and accepted. I still go into all-or-nothing language sometimes during arguments with my husband  and because it’s an outdated coping mechanism, it never works […]

For all of you who’ve ever felt like the weird outsider for your creative, spiritual gifts:  When my son was younger, we went into a store in San Francisco and bought him a mask that looked like something out of the Mad Max movie. It was so creepy – and he proceeded to walk through […]

I’ve revisited it repeatedly for my own healing, and for inspiration to create […]

We often hear and talk about toxic relationships with other people. But not so much about our toxic patterns with ourselves.   Thanks to a random shuffle on my phone today and Britany Spears, what came through is: Constant self-doubt and self-criticism are TOXIC! Toxic ways that we talk to ourselves. They can even be an addictive behavior. […]

I have something to share with you that feels like pure magic—magic that all started with a vision I held close to my heart.  A couple of years ago (maybe two, maybe three—time blurs, right?), I stumbled across a video of a workshop in a stunning Costa Rican yoga shala, nestled deep in the jungle.
