The 3 Styles of Manifestation – Good, Better and Best
What’s the best way to get something done? Visualize it? Or forge ahead and make it happen? Just to be clear, this post is not for people who are only interested in the latter. Yes, you can accomplish a lot by focusing solely on physical reality, but things get a lot more interesting when you [...]
The One Thing That Won’t Be Perfect About Your Soul Mate
Do you believe in soul mates? If so, do you have a vision of what yours looks like? Perhaps you’re married to your soul mate, so you have a perfectly clear visual. Or maybe you have an image of your ideal mate, but you have yet to meet. Or you already met, but it didn’t [...]

What My Honeymoon Taught Me About the Nature of Reality
When you think of a honeymoon, what comes to mind? Dreamy newlyweds drinking champagne, staring into each other’s eyes?

When you think about your life, what comes to mind? Is it bursting at the seams with love and creativity? Or is it just limping along, looking for a place to rest its weary head? Or maybe it’s somewhere in between. Wherever you fall on the spectrum, my guess is that things could be better. [...]
