Let Your Light Shine

“Don’t you know yet? It is your light that lights the world.” —Rumi  From today’s meditation (Deepak Chopra’s Finding Your Flow — online)

Today I was shopping in Whole Foods – an attractive woman with white hair said to me ‘You’re so cute and your hair is so pretty!’ That gave me a chance to thank her and give her my bookmark with my website on it and to talk about being a miracle. She and her husband engaged with me for 5 minutes continuing to compliment how great I looked.

I felt my light was shining. So yours must be too!           woman holding sun set

Mini-Miracle Brings Welcome Sleep

woman holding sun setA long time close friend just told me that after taking ‘Ticlid’ medication 14 years for stroke-prevention – her doctor agreed she could wean herself off starting two weeks ago. Since then she has more energy and gratefully now sleeps ‘extremely’ well – for the first time in all those years!

Bonus news: unfortunately research has confirmed that the medication is toxic, thus potentially carcinogenic  — we’re so glad she no longer ‘has to’ take it because of her good health and successful strategies for dealing with stress. At 77, she’s having so much fun — even the star of a weekly salsa class!

New Book to Help Grieving Spouses/Partners

Her story is expanded in her book soon to be published “Paths through Despair to Gratitude and Faith–A Guide for Facilitators of Bereavement Groups and Grieving Spouses/Partners.” More details coming.
