Fear of Dying Makes Us Afraid of Living Death is one of the most influential concepts that seeps into how we live life. Death is a transition, much like the many transitions we experience throughout our lifetimes. When we look back, we can see all the times we’ve died – or at least our identity has died – and our attachments to what was got annihilated, by controllable and uncontrollable circumstances alike. Yet we have the incredible ability as humans to grow our capacity to transition gracefully through whatever Life throws at us. Including death. But for that to be

How Do I Choose to Choose What I Choose? We are constantly choosing what we choose. Did you know that?! Sometimes consciously, other times unconsciously-but we are always choosing! Most often, however, we tend to focus on what to choose and rarely focus on how we choose to choose what we choose. This podcast explores how each of us live in a process of choosing that gives us the results that are in front of us, which are not necessarily the results we’d like to have in front of us. – – – – For more blogs, books and videos,

What Would You Do If You Knew You Could’t Fail? Age! A long time ago, this question was popping up in self-empowerment materials: "What would you do if you knew you couldn’t fail?" One particular day, I closed my eyes and felt into the question, "What would I do?" The answer came swiftly – not from my thinking mind but out of the depths of my being: "I would sail around the world by myself!" I was shocked with this answer, because, even though I sailed across the Atlantic in my 40’s, with my boyfriend who had a very large

The Courage to Change the Things You Can Through my group at the Senior Center here on Orcas, it has come to my attention that most individuals are aging with an addiction to thought patterns that actually create isolation, loneliness, hopelessness and dis-ease. This is no different than those of us who become addicted to substances and behaviors that create isolation, loneliness and hopelessness.

So we learn to be

Death by Aging: Failing to Thrive You are the culmination of all incarnations of life on Earth. You are the pinnacle of evolution of your ancestors. You are the highest evolution of all of your incarnations. What’s that like inside of you as you take that in? For me, when I read this for the first time, I thought "Oh no! I’m Doomed!" Then, I took a breath and began to sink into the goodness of this truth. You carry in your DNA the traumas of your ancestors. That’s why many of us are triggered easily by even the thought

Be the Legacy You Wish to Leave Behind The topic of Legacies is a big one as part of the aging process. What will you leave behind for your family, community or the world at large? Wills, trusts, foundations, charities all are in line for your financial treasure. We all want to be remembered after we’re gone. Personally, because I have children and a grandson, I want to leave a legacy for them. What will it be? Initially, I decided that I want to leave them a connection with nature, because for me that’s one of the most important relationships

I’m Not Giving Up What I Have for What I Want So many people in the world – especially in the U.S., sacrifice their health and well-being for financial security, stability, and identity.

What Suzie wants from our coaching sessions is to get healthy. Suzie’s work-life balance is currently 80/20. In our coaching conversation, her body reveals to her that if would like no less than 70/30. Though this may not

“I Have No Time for Serenity…As If I’ve Got Something Better to Do" In a few minutes I have a meeting. I want my day to start as I usually start my day with reading and being contemplative – feeling into serenity so that I’m in it all day long. However, in this particular morning, there isn’t time for serenity. I have to make preparations for this meeting. "Oh, I’ll just do a couple of these things on my list, that should be fine, then I’ll get back to my serenity." I grumped my way through each task and ended
