My friend Jose is always sending me amazing poems, like this one by David Wagoner.
The Silence of the Stars
When Laurens van der Post one night
In the Kalihari Desert told the Bushmen
He couldn’t hear the stars
Singing, they didn’t believe him. They looked at him,
Half-smiling. They examined his face
To see whether he was [...]
Love Is All You Need
It may seem strange to say that a book about sex is so important. But this isn’t really a book about sex.
At its core, Relax into Sex is a book about consciousness and presence, about becoming more fully alive. And whether or not you are currently in a relationship, you can use the simple concepts in this material to start showing up for your time on earth in a way you never have before.
I recently had the privilege of interviewing the authors of Relax into Sex, Jody Rosen Baron and Peter Beamish, about the concepts in their book. You can listen to the interview by going to the link near the end of the email. And if you want to get a sneak peek of the book, you can read the first chapter at Jody and Peter’s website,

If a critical mass of the people on the planet were incorporating these principles into their lives each day, we’d soon eradicate competition, war, hunger and poverty.

Unraveling
Take the knife
that would slice your heart open
and use it to sever
what no longer
serves your destiny.
Don’t let the wall of your security
crush you
as it falls apart.
Dismantle it, consciously,
stone by stone
and be amazed
at what it kept you from seeing.
Open your arms to the storm
and invite the lightning
to ignite your soul
and burn away the rotten remnants
of [...]
When Your House Is on Fire…
What do you do when everything is falling apart?
You can either fight it (and, as Jungian psychologist Marion Woodman says, go down like a pig, kicking and squealing),
or, you can trust the process of disintegration.
So much is falling apart on our planet now: financial institutions, political
systems, notions of right and wrong, even weather patterns!
Not surprisingly, many of us are feeling these ramifications in our personal lives as well.
Raise Your Vibes…

Trying something new on the blog.
Since there are 5 steps to my Cornucopia Method of Manifestation, I’m going to start posting a short comment or something fun related to each step, for the corresponding day of the week, Monday through Friday.
Since today is Thursday, that’s Step 4, Raise your Vibration.
One of my favorite ways to [...]
My Favorite Morning Drink (before the Irish Breakfast Tea)…
The third step of my Cornucopia Method of Manifestation is “Befriend Your Body,” because, after all, your body is your first manifestation project. Not only that, but when you become conscious enough to notice your body’s messages about what it needs, you are also becoming sensitive to the energetic vibrations you’re sending out into the Multi-Verse. Shift those, shift your reality. It’s that simple. Many manifestation teachings ignore the body’s role in creating your experience on this earth. Don’t make that mistake. Your body is your Manifestation Matrix.
So, here’s my newest health find: a concoction I’ve made with 4 ingredients you can easily find yourself.
Beltane: Season of Embodiment
Share
May 1 is the beginning of Beltane according to the Celtic calendar.
Beltane is the season of summer: the time of lush growth, fruit and flower, pleasure and sensuality. It is the season for celebrating the joys of being embodied.
Conscious embodiment, the intentional and full engagement of our bodies, is critical to Conscious Manifestation. That’s why [...]
Do You Ever Want to Lie Down and Cry?
The most healing thing you can do when faced with challenging emotions is to stop. Notice how you’re feeling. Breathe. Find your center. Connect with your Essential Self. Know that help is yours. Let love fill you. Be peace.
When you remember who you are, you don’t need to change anything outside your self. Everything you need is right here.
And here’s the really beautiful part: when you let yourself feel your feelings, when you create a compassionate space inside yourself for all of who you are, you no longer need to dump your dense energy into the Collective Unconscious, where it might result in someone uttering an angry word, or hitting a child, or picking up a gun, or dropping a bomb.
Never underestimate the power of a little self-compassion.
Music to Raise Your Vibration
For me, Celtic music is near the top of the list for healing and uplifting music, probably because I love Ireland so much and offer workshops in western Ireland. Of course there are many types of Celtic music. I love tapping my toe to a reel or a jig (ideally at a house party or in a small pub for a live performance!) When it’s calming or healing I need, though, I look to sacred music.
Two of my favorite healing performers from Ireland are Noirin Ni Riain, whose unique and exquisite voice has brought her international acclaim (including singing three times for the Dalai Lama) and Brother Seamus Byrne, a monk who brings ancient Celtic Christianity to life.
Channel Your Higher Self

Do you ever wish you had a road map, or big arrows along the path of life, to show you what to do?
Well, what the map and the arrows have been with you all along? Maybe, you just need to learn how to read them.
When I interviewed renowned channel Celeste Hammond, she talked about how [...]
