And sometimes the changes are extreme like what we all experienced last week when our temperatures swung from 50 below to 50 above zero, all within 5 days.

Manifesting What Your Heart Desires
What do you want? It’s a powerful question and also one of the hardest questions one might ask. Getting clear on what you desire is not easy. But it is a question worth pondering. I ask myself that question in a formal practice every day. In the style of meditation that I practice and teach, […]
