Why Do You Get Sick?

No matter how high your vibration, from time to time, you're probably going to experience a health issue. I had one yesterday. Fever, chills, violent shaking, aches all over, pounding head, throat too sore to swallow, all of it. BAM! Hit me like a two-by-four. 

When we get sick, there can be any number of causes, all of them vibrational. We might have been feeling put-upon lately, overworked,

Easter and the Promise of Spring

Regardless of what we call them, the holidays of springtime are all about the same thing; the promise that life is eternal and survives behind and beneath even that thing we call death.

We see it in Nature. During winter, life is hushed, dormant, buried, often beneath mountains of snow. But in spring, we see that life didn't end. It only slowed and rested, and now it's busting out all over

You're Welcome!

I was meditating today, and this is what I received.

"So you know this Ask and it is Given thing?  You do realize it's not just Spirit that you should be asking, right? It applies to other humans too. It applies to everything. As above, so below. Remember?"

Three Ways to Be More Spiritual in 2014

Spirituality means different things to different people. To me, it means a personal relationship with my Source. I don’t equate spirituality with the practices associated with any particular faith. That’s religion, whether it’s Christian, Buddhist, Wiccan, or any one of the world’s roughly 4200 different religious traditions.


To me, spirituality is personal. It’s what’s going on inside me.
