Eighteen Years…Twenty-one in the making…

Eighteen years ago on this day, July 1, 2001, I said “I do” to Patrick Feren. Our wedding took place in Burbank at SpiritWorks with Rev. Dr. Marlene Morris. However, our real journey together began in 1997 and perhaps many lifetimes before then. As we often do on our anniversary, Patrick and I have been […]

There is a Law of Reflection

There is a beautiful passage in the Science of Mind on page 297 about attracting friends. It begins by saying that “In turning to the Law realize that it is a Law of Reflection.” Yesterday, I had the honor of serving a luncheon with my husband for the volunteers of our Center. It was the very […]

Can We Be Kind?

It is easy to be kind when someone is in need, to lend a hand to the sick, to help a friend who is going through a crisis. Have you ever stopped to help someone you didn’t know? During the tragedy at the World Trade Centers people were more than kind to each other. It […]

Decide to be Happy

Can we decide to be happy no matter what is occurring in our lives? Can we decide to be happy even when we are in the middle of a deep dark period? First, I think I need a definition of happiness. It is not the cliche definition I was taught. It’s not about lollypops and […]

A Time to Heal

What does it mean to heal? Healing is revealing our perfect self, which has always been present. There is a pattern of health within us. We were born to heal. We can cover up this pattern, but we cannot ever destroy it. It is our authentic self, our Divine self. This is not just a […]

Honoring My Gift

Last night we had the opportunity to view a deep and powerful interview between Dr. James Mellon (our mentor) and the poet and mystic Mark Nepo. It was the pilot of Dr. James’ new show called “The Inner View.” I have always been deeply touched by the words and writing of Mark Nepo, and having […]

Who Owns Truth

One of the most important things in my life is to know that I am my own Divine Authority. It took me almost 50 years of life on this planet to really accept this on a cellular level. I know that each person is their own Divine Authority. I truly respect this. Yes, sometimes, we […]

Revealing the Sacred Code

Every great spiritual teaching has a different way of letting us know that there is a seed of Truth implanted in our consciousness. The Hindus saying “that as an emanation of God, each soul has the eternal truths of Hinduism encoded within itself…” The Native American tradition relates that somewhere inside of each person the […]

For Good

Is it possible that everything that has ever happened to us, everything we have ever experienced, everything that we have ever done, has been for our Good. This is what I believe, and I’ve had a lot of experiences that didn’t seem very good at the time I was going through them. I’ve also had […]

Decide to Come Home

THE STORY: There is a beautiful story in the Bible called the Prodigal Son. Perhaps we are familiar with it. Jesus tells the metaphorical tale or parable of a son who left his father’s home taking all of his inheritance with him, subsequently squandering it and then when reaching an all-time low, decided to come […]
