How quickly we can change the direction of our thoughts when we notice how we are tapping into the power of our words. What we tell people can frame the level of our relationship. However, how we form our words—our inner dialogue—can impact our lives. I have a dear friend who has written a book … More Tapping Into the Power of Our Words
Life changes when we change our perspective. I discovered that when I transitioned from being a Finder vs. Seeker, things began to shift. This concept was introduced to me by Dawson Church’s article, From Seeker to Finder, published in the Unity Spirituality & Health Magazine.

How often do we get so involved with everyday living that we stop going with the flow of life?

September’s Science of Mind theme is peace. I often think and pray about living in peace, even though it can be challenging to stay peaceful with so much going on in the world and our country. When I reflect on peace, I think about the saying that has been hanging on my wall since I … More Living in Peace
