Why You Have Freaky Dreams

I was really stumped yesterday on what to write about. Although I gave two separate readings to clients, which went just fine, I wasn’t feeling particularly “wordy” when it came to talking about psychic matters. I think I have a kind of limited amount of psychic energy allotted to me each day, and when I [...]

Wishy-Washy Thinking Gets You Wishy-Washy Results

Pick up any book about the power of the mind, and you will learn about the importance of visualization. “Concentrate, imagine, picture in your mind the reality you wish to create for yourself. Do it for five minutes a day, and you’ll be amazed at the changes that will happen in your life, bringing you [...]

The Client Who Gave Up On God Because She Didn’t Get What She Wanted

I’d like to tell you about a client of mine, with whom I’ve been working for a few years now. She suffered from ill health, a stagnant career life, an unfulfilling marriage, and was living in a small rural town with limited resources. The friends she would mention were usually those who let her down [...]

Blooming Where You’re Planted

I lived in France for several years in the early nineties, first in Dijon and then in Paris. In Paris, there was a local newsletter for expatriates that listed all the activities around the city for English-speaking foreigners. One woman ran a monthly workshop called “Bloom Where You’re Planted.” Its purpose was to help foreigners [...]

Don’t Be an Energetic Litterbug

When someone asks you are, which side of your internal balance sheet does your brain jump to? In other words, do you think about the problems or liabilities in your life, or do you think about the positive factors, or assets? The answer to this question, at face value, doesn’t seem to matter. After all, [...]

In the Gap Between Stimulus and Response Lies Liberation

Last year, I attended a ten day silent meditation retreat. For ten days, neither I nor the other 100 or so participants spoke a word. We did not make eye contact with each other, or communicate through sign language or the written word. We did not read, write, watch television, or listen to any other [...]

We Are Easiest With Those From Whom We Want Nothing At All

Have you ever stopped to think that the people we feel most comfortable with are those whom we ask nothing of? When you are with someone that you depend upon to act and react the way you want them to, you have made yourself vulnerable to disturbing your peace of mind. This is because you [...]

The Beautiful Pacific Northwest

I am currently on vacation in the beautiful Pacific Northwest, and posting my Psychic Thoughts for the day has proved to be more difficult than I anticipated, due to some technical difficulties involving the battle between PC’s (mine) and Macs (my parents’).
I will be back posting on a daily basis on Tuesday, August 25th. Until [...]

New Binders and Sharpened Pencils

I am feeling that tingle of excitement…the thrill I always get when I prepare to start a new school year. For me, September is the start of my own new year—not the calendar year, nor my birth month, but the new school year represents to me a clean slate, a time for resolutions, excitement, and, [...]

When Someone Tells You They “Don’t Know What To Do”…They Are Lying

When someone tells you they don’t know what to do, they are lying. In this example, I do not mean that someone is honestly stating their ignorance, as in “how do I tune this piano? I don’t know what to do!” Rather, I refer to situations in which people are stuck between knowing what they [...]
