#1 Best-Seller! “365 Life Shifts: Pivotal Moments that Changed Everything” Every so often, we have an experience that alters the course of our lives and changes who we are forever. Sometimes these moments fill us with rapture and flood us with insight. Other times, they are blessings in disguise that don't reveal their treasure until years later. However they show up, these moments can inspire us to live richer, deeper, and more authentically soulful lives. In this book, 365 Life Shifts: Pivotal Moments that Changed Everything,” over 250 authors share such life-changing moments - experiences that inspired, uplifted, shook us to our core, got us back on track (or onto a new track altogether), and led us toward our true selves. The 365 inspiring stories include: • discovering your purpose, • experiencing a spiritual awakening, • leaving a job/relationship/home/religion to follow your soul's whispers, • bravely opening up to love, • receiving messages from beyond, • tapping into your inner strength, • finding the beauty and wisdom in all of life, even in the difficult moments, • and so much more! My chapters are: “The Shift from Doubt to Possibility”, “Feeling and the Shift form Or to And”, and “Loving the Skin You’re In”. While the experiences of all of the contributing authors vary greatly, each of these moments transformed the authors and helped them shift in a positive way. These true stories (one page each - for quick inspiration!) were written with love and infused with the intention that you'll be able to discover the beauty in your own life shifts, too.

Dare to Be Sober - PUBLISHED! “Dare to be Sober” is a collaborative book of recovering addicts’ stories of courage, strength and the determination to change. My chapter is “My Addiction Story: We Can Heal from Chronic Pain”. Here’s an excerpt from it: “Addiction feels like we have grabbed a tiger by the tail and cannot remember to let go. My name is Elizabeth. I am a recovering chronic pain sufferer and an addict in recovery – in discovery. My addictive behavior ranged all over the map, covering anything that helped me divert, distract, avoid, numb, push through, deny…whatever it took to not feel the moment I was experiencing. I had such a hard time accepting life the way I perceived it. I felt shame on so many levels. I felt powerless over the physical and emotional pain I felt. I felt spiritual pain because I felt that on some level my Higher Power was punishing me, even though I was doing the best I could to cope with my circumstances. I did not feel seen nor heard, certainly not valued for who I truly was, and I sure didn’t feel worthy. Why would I even want to participate in such a life? I escaped the best I could. In many ways, I could not escape. I did not see that ultimately, I had the key to the prison I was in…” Our mission with Dare to Be Sober is HOPE and the message that resounds loud and clear from each of these stories is that you can recover. Our wish is that you can believe recovery is possible in your life or the life of a loved one. Get your copy here: http://bit.ly/EKBooks 16708648_1326752790720226_2134632395722601152_n

Sparkler for the Day: I own who I am, all that I have been, done, all that I am, and all that I will be. This is who I am…what I think…what I feel…how I choose to be in the world. I own both my dark and my light, and all the subtle shades in between. I walk in this world the best I can in any given moment. I choose wildness. I choose reverence. I choose beauty. I choose kindness. I choose the soft and silky. The rough and ragged. The raucous and the silent. I choose all of it, for all of it is who I am. #GetYourSparkOn #FeelTheRapture #WaheGuru #kippinitreal Morning by the river with site and logo cropped

~ Out of the Fog ~ Feeling crowded, hemmed in. The fog rolled in and overtook my position. One moment I had clarity and it was gone in the next. Pushed to one side and then the other, a force is squeezing me where I don’t want to go. Where is the doorway? It seems I lost track of my soul. I know it’s here somewhere. I must stop and rest a moment. Take a breath. Listen to that silent still point. Center into myself. Time to be the sacred and stand in the love therein. Let the winds of my devotion fan the flames of my light burn the fog away and let it be only You that I hear. #OutOfTheFog #Shuniya #Suniai #Divinity #kippinitreal #WUVIP Beautiful woman in clouds of smoke

Peace Pod for the Day: "There will come a day when people of all races, colors, and creeds will put aside their differences. They will come together in love, joining hands in unification, to heal the Earth and all Her children. They will move over the Earth like a great Whirling Rainbow, bringing peace, understanding and healing everywhere they go. Many creatures thought to be extinct or mythical will resurface at this time; the great trees that perished will return almost overnight. All living things will flourish, drawing sustenance from the breast of our Mother, the Earth." – Indigenous Council #PeacePod #LightKeepers ##WhirlingRainbow #kippintreal Little plant on hand on bokeh background

This Spiritual Matter – the crux of it It is oft said, and rightly so: “There is only One. All the rest is illusion projected from our own thoughts.” I hear this and I get it --- however here is the crux for me, where the rubber meets the road: I still have to live in this world. We all have to make a living one way or another, maya or not. For me the challenge is how will I thread this path through with grace, gratitude, and remaining in touch with my ever connection to the One. It is a constant practice...I begin anew every morning, bowing and reminding Elizabeth that she is not in charge...the Infinite is the Doer of All. I always have the breath to go to during the day. Try telling a woman in labor with her first child that "There is only One. All the rest is illusion projected from our own thoughts" and see what happens. She will most likely agree with you that The One is totally in charge, but it is she that must make the choice to surrender to the process or not... When she dives into the breath for her guidance and allows the process, she wins the moment. She must begin again with the next breath, as do I. This is the journey, as I see it.

Healing Our Great Dissolution: I hear this great ripping sound across our country. My friends overseas hear it, too. It is echoing all over the world. We are torn asunder with separation. It is as if the whole of humanity is suffering from this incipient disease of separation. My heart is breaking. But here’s the thing. That world out there points directly back to me. For it is in myself that the hard work lies. I must look to what it is in me that is torn asunder…the great ripping noise within me. As my friend and mentor, Nikki Myers, says, “I am a committee.” Nikki teaches about retrieving the lost self. We are, I am a splintered, fragmented soul at odds with itself. I must do the hard work of looking in all those places within me that I have been too terrified to look at, for fear of what I might find. Well enough. The time has come to come into cohesiveness. I have no clue what that will ultimately look like, but I have an idea of how it will feel. I will work towards healing those disparate parts of myself and you will hear the great thunderclap sound and massive sigh of relief as I move through the work of bringing these pieces together. I will be the change. May it be so all over the world. #BeTheChange #Awaken #UnleashYourHealingPower #kippinitreal Emergence of Soul Geometry

#UnleashYourHealingPower When we clear our resistance to pain and our beliefs around it, we find we open ourselves to healing in a way we had never known before was even possible. #UnleashYourHealingPower #LivingBeyondChronicPain #kippinitreal Wood Floor on Sky

Peace Pod for the Day: Forgive yourself. Choose the pain you need to let go of - the fear, the anger, the thing you did long ago that keeps hounding you. Love and release yourself. Isn’t it about time? #Forgiveness #PeacePod #LoveAndReleaseYourself #kippinitreal Fragile feminity

Threading the Eye We arise and live inseparable from the Formless, the Unknowable, the Great Weaver, the Divine yet we forget this our deepest connection and find we are lost living in the eye of the needle walking in a fog hunting for something. The hunt takes on a life of its own and we hunt for the hunt. We are so lost we have even forgotten what it is that we have lost. We search for the way through and in the search itself we cannot thread our way through. We wonder, “Why is there so much angst and distress in our world?” We are battling against ourselves. Go within. Be in the still silence. We clear the way as we focus on, realize our divinity. We are the link between heaven and earth. Our struggle is because we are struggling against not being able to find our way. Pause just for a moment. Understand as you connect back to yourself - you connect to all of us and the All. Follow the thread through the eye. Find yourself on the other side back where you started a child in the arms of the Divine. Come back to yourself. #ThreadingTheEye #IAm #DivineDownload #kippinitreal Be the light
