I’m in the process of forming groups for my new workshop “Writing for Clarity,” which will focus on tuning into your intuition through writing exercises, determining your desires, and putting them into action through activating intentions. The group is designed to be supportive and create synergy through sharing. Register now on the Life Gardeners website.

I’ve been struggling lately with how to merge the 4-step process I learned from my mentor for using the Law of Attraction with the spiritual approach I use in my own life. As usual, when we ask a question, the answer comes (usually from several directions at once). I met Galen Orion at Gayatri Healing Center’s Metaphysical Fair on Saturday. I then had the opportunity to interview with him this past Wednesday. As part of my “homework,” I checked out his column on examiner.com and subscribed.
Today’s article about Michael Wolf and Mahalene Louis, two Austin spiritual teachers and coaches, describes a “missing step” in setting intentions. This step is about “listening” to our inner guidance (higher self, God, etc.) before setting our intentions.
When I spoke with Galen on Wednesday, I expressed to him my desire to meld the understanding I’ve gained about co-creating from the teachings of Carloline Myss with the LOA material I learned from my mentor, Margaret McCraw. What I didn’t know is that he would be writing an article that answers my desire and perfectly expresses what is necessary in order to co-create with spiritual integrity.
I look forward to reading more from Galen and learning about the work of other practitioners in the Austin area. You can read the article here.

Anger, Fear, and Resentment prevent us from moving forward in our lives. Forgiveness of ourselves and others is critical if we are to create the lives we desire. Over the next few days, I’m going to explore some of the reasons we feel these negative emotions and ways of finding forgiveness.
Boundary violations
A boundary violation occurs when another person invades our private or emotional space without our consent. This includes egregious violations such as rape, child abuse, assault and murder. It also includes verbal abuse, harsh criticism, and exposure through telling secrets or sharing intimate photographs. We can also violate our own boundaries by sharing too much too soon in a relationship, giving into demands that don’t honor our values, or going along with others to appear “nice.” Read the rest of this entry »
I’ve been reading “The 4-Hour Workweek” by Tim Ferris. What an amazing resource for those of us who are ready to escape the Monday-Friday, 8-5 grind! As a Life Coach, I support my clients in redesigning their lives to bring more joy to their relationships, increase material prosperity and align with their values. While his methods may not work for everyone (some require initial investments that are beyond the means of people living paycheck to paycheck), they are thought-provoking.

So often, when I speak with someone who is divorced, the word “failure” comes up. We have been taught by religion, our families, and our culture that divorce is a failure of commitment. The following stories illustrate the transformative power of divorce. Whether you are the person who instigated the break up or the person who wanted to maintain the marriage bond, divorce can be a liberating and creative experience, a chance to become more authentic and define your desires in new and startling ways.
The Law of Attraction simply states that you will attract whatever is attuned to your thoughts and emotions. This is a simple law which is observable by experimenting with smiling. When I worked in sales during the 1980s and 1990s, we were told to “smile before you pick up the phone” and to “smile when you greet a customer.” By smiling, we create a positive atmosphere that is more likely to bring us the outcome we desire. Of course, like just about everyone, I wasn’t always in the mood to smile. My bad moods could be caused by traffic on the freeway, a story on the news, or a problem in a relationship. If I focused on what happened on the way to the office or the day before, I couldn’t get that smile going, which resulted in fewer sales and lower commissions. In order to get the Law of Attraction to work for us, we have to start by cultivating a positive attitude. This means leaving the past behind us as we go forward in our lives.
