Dear Friend, Today I want to share a short poem with you that I wrote many, many years ago. I think these timeless poems are ever alive and worth remembering: Show Me How to Be Grateful Show Me How to Pray Show Me How to Appreciate Life In Every Single Way It is wonderful to be Grateful when good things happen.

Easy and Effortless Dear Friend, I would like to introduce you to my two new Friends: Easy and Effortless. I would love them to become your friends too. They have been on the periphery of my life for quite a while, but I was so used to hanging out with Hard and Effort, that I barely noticed them until recently.  They didn't try to push themselves into my life or make an effort to be seen...

The only answer I can come up with why we do so is that we don't feel we deserve it, are worthy of it, or plainly that we cannot... Read More

Dear Friend, It is OK to have what you want If I tell you: "It is OK to have what you want," what is your response? In my work as a Hakomi Practitioner we often use probes to bring up unconscious material that restricts us in the way we live our life. The sentence above works well as a probe, and will bring up different responses in different people. Did you notice your response... Read More

Dear Friend, Slipping into Old Patterns Have you noticed how easy it is to slip into old patterns when you are not paying attention?  And have you noticed how brilliantly the default button works when you are not paying attention? I have. And I have also noticed that until a new pattern is embodied, it sure helps to pay very close attention. Others first, me last? Well... I... Read More
