Oh, Yes. Let There Be Light!
As the days finally begin to get longer, light is the theme all around. I feel lighter and more energized when I rise with the sun for my contemplative practices – and actually see it!

The Power Of Trusting Your Intuition Through Color
Intuition is part of the illumination we are seeking on this planet. It’s a case of trial and error. The more we practice and improve that connection, the better the result. A simple analogy would be a batter in a baseball game. If he or she never attempted to go to bat, that person…
