Sharing the journey

Wishing everyone a very happy new year, as the last days of 2011 fly by.  This year truly flew by quicker than all the previous ones, the holiday season came and went very fast too.  In 2011 Pepper Sauce for Peace finally birthed.  After 10 years of making pepper sauce, I finally bottled it linking it to global peace cause, Women's Global Peace Alliance.  I am deeply grateful for the actualization of this dream.  Speaking of dreams, my latest CD, Free Yourself From Insomnia also was created this year.  This CD was in the making for over 2 years and I'm glad it is finally done and availalble.  Somehow, in my Aries nature, I assumed I could keep everything going at the pace I was going, while making the pepper sauce bottling possible, and creating a new CD.  Then in August, my mom had a fall and created a compression fracture.  Overnight, everything changed.  Life became fully about caregiving and everything else stopped.  A few weeks into this, my own back gave out and completely froze up.  It was an amazing time for both me and mom, and learning how to take care of ourselves and each other.  Everyone stepped up and especially my lovely Sierra.  At 14, she showed me that she can fully step in and lovingly care for grandma, when she was in need.

Through all of this, since I had stopped working, my waiting list climbed to 38 people.  This was constantly on my mind and I wanted so much to create the space to work, but my body literally would not allow it.  Every time I would reach for the phone or sit to write e-mails to set up sessions, my back would freeze, or my throat would get sore, or a strong headache would come.  I came to accept that after 23 years of doing sessions, other than the time I was pregnant and for the first year of Sierra's life, I haven't taken much of a time off at all, and I was finally burned out.  I needed to take the space and give that energy and time towards my family, the making of the CD and the bottling of pepper sauce.  

I have come to accept that there will probably always be a waiting list now for sessions and I have also realized that the work has become much more potent.  It is difficult for me not to be available to clients at the moment of need, as I used to do whatever was in my power to be there when I was needed, but I know that unless I take my own advice, and that I care for my own self and the well being of this body, that I will not be good for anyone else and the signals my body is giving me will become louder and louder.  

In 2012 I will begin teaching weekly half hour classes.  This will be a way where help is available weekly to everyone, and it will keep a flow of activation and manifestation for everyone in your lives.  I will continue to do transformation sessions, though the available time for them will be reduced.  I am hoping the classes will fill the space that is needed.

I wish for activation and awakening in 2012 for all humanity and that we birth peace, within ourselves and on this beautiful globe.  

Thank you for your kindness.

The most amazing gift came to me from the whales on my birthday.  It was a rainy day and all I wished for is an opening so that I can celebrate at the beach and look for whales as they begin their swim back north.  Everyone was calling, asking if we are still gathering at the beach.  I insisted on being outdoors.  We got to the beach and hardly anyone was there, it was too rainy of an afternoon to be a beach day.  We walked the bay and decided if there is even a tiny opening of blue sky, we would stay.  Well, there was barely a tiny opening and so we brought out the foods and began the celebration.  Not one drop of rain came down for the next 7 hours.  Shortly before sunset, I wished for a whale to do something so I can see them on this day.  About 5 minutes later, a whale began to flap its tale in the water, a full view of its complete tale.  This continued for 36 flaps, we were all in awe, no one had ever seen such a show.  It was magnificent and such a huge gift.  It continues to bring a smile to me, deep in my heart.  So grateful...

We had a beautiful meditation this morning at the beach to feel internal peace and to witness peace on every part of this planet.  There is so much power when we synchronize our efforts.  The magnitude of the intention becomes so much stronger when we come together.  My hope is that everyone, everywhere, can come together in your own communities and focus on internal and global peace, just once a week.  This vision is rooted in Women's Global Peace Alliance (WGPA.org) and the site is being built now.

Please join us every Thursday morning at 10 AM (Hawaii standard time) at Anini beach, at the end by the river, or via Spirit from wherever you are, for an internal and global peace meditation.

This is a free event. Rain or shine.
These meditations are part of Women's Global Peace Alliance, with the understanding that by coming together and being empowered, focusing on internal and global peace, synchronizing our efforts, the feminine principal will birth global peace.

Also, at 10 AM daily (Hawaii standard time) join in individually, on a meditation for internal and global peace, however way you choose. Choose peaceful actions, thoughts and deeds.

My personal request for this week's meditation is to focus attention on healing and peace in the middle east, specifically Iran, and to Chile, and anywhere you feel needs extra attention.

In May the first rainbow kids class graduated, this was certainly a highlight for me. These beautiful young ones are so incredibly full of enormous potential and to be able to be part of their path was truly an honor. It was also a beautiful and educational journey co-teaching with my lovely daughter Sierra. We learned a lot and grew in our relationship. I continued to be challenged with my health and truly had to learn a new way to live my daily life. All is all, the illness was a true test of my ability to stay present and accepting of the moment.

On the day of travel to California, my niece's father-in-law passed away. Hossein was a kind and wonderful man and I send his soul love and blessings. His passing has taught us many lessons on living life to the fullest and being present in the wondeful moments that make up our life. The big wedding of my beautiful niece and her amazing fiance is now postponed. Life is full of twists and turns; preparing for a wedding shifted to participation in a funeral.

Today I spoke with Ka'chi and she said there are earth magnetics shooting way high into the sky and raining down upon us causing emotional stirrings. We must stay alert and keep positive. The lesson continues to show itself. This afternoon Sierra and I went to the pool and when I was done and ready to warm up in the jaccuzi of the local community pool, Sierra got upset with me and wanted me back in the pool. I applied the Eckhard Tolle knowledge of "making friends with the present moment" and "respond to the needs of the moment" and felt it best to step back into the pool and be with Sierra. Just as I did that, a male and female duck flew in and landed in the pool. This is a community pool, nonetheless, only Sierra and I were in the pool with these 2 ducks. We hung out together in the pool for a long while and were blessed with the presence of these ducks. My mom was outside the pool and repeated that something like this has never happened to her before. It was a truly sweet time, just because the ducks decided to join us and bless our afternoon. Its all about the simple joys of life. Enjoying the moments...

April is my birthday month, sometimes we truly go through a re-birthing. I went through a big detox cleanse in the form of the worst flu I have had. I spent most of the month healing and getting well. It was a big lesson for me in slowing down and taking care of my own being. I had to completely stop doing private sessions and slow way way down. I found this to be very challenging in the busy schedule I have created. Practice what you preach, was the theme! The entire illness felt like a metamorphosis and I am eager to witness the butterfly emerging. I've gotten glimpses of the colorful wings coming through...
