To Speak or Not to Speak…that is the Question

Is it true? Is it kind? Is it necessary? These are the three questions I have asked myself as of late when deciding if I should say something or have a conversation with another person. Sometimes something might be true, but it is not kind. Sometimes it might feel necessary, but it might not be […]

CSL Kaua’i is Another Word for Love

In 2011 when I graduated from ministerial school, I knew and claimed that I would be a full-time minister of New Thought. I also knew that I would start my own work with my husband and partner, Patrick Feren. Why are own work? We are creatives. We have a vision. We require the freedom to […]

The Key to Grace

All month, I have been contemplating the idea of Grace. By the end of today, I will have given four messages about it at our Center for Spiritual Living, and even sang about it. This has been one of the most enlightening months in my ministry in that I have delved deeper into a word […]

After the Solar Eclipse

Aloha everyone! How’s it going? The Solar Eclipse is over? I’m just checking in. How are you feeling? Have you gone back to business as usual, or are you working your life in a new way? We felt the shift and then what happened? I trust we all took a step in the direction of […]

Charlottesville

This week another violent hateful act took place in Charlottesville. I understand and am aware of everything going on in the world, but I have to take a reality check. My reality check tells me that these isolated incidents are not, as the media would like us to think, “the norm.” Anne Frank once wrote […]

What is a Center for Spiritual Living Practitioner?

I feel the calling to explain what a practitioner of Science and Mind and Spirit is trained to do. We who have answered this call have had many years of study and practice in order to call ourselves licensed practitioners and it doesn’t end the day that we get our license. We are constantly in […]

Yesterday a whole Island answered a call and that answer then vibrated out into the world. It was a call from a man who has held this Island together in what he calls “The Heartbeat of Kaua’i.” Richard Diamond is most definitely the heartbeat of Kaua’i. He holds us all together with his generosity of […]
