The unexpected gift of an urban tree…

When we live from the heart, we have a higher appreciation ability. This greatly enhances all our experiences of life. Even when certain circumstances might not seem favourable, we're able to receive the gem within them or that emerges from them. Life is no longer just a series of "good" or "bad" experiences, but a journey of discoveries that teach us about ourselves, others and this amazing world we live in. Having an open heart allows us to make the most of any situation, so that … [Read more...]

Rainbow-celebrating synchronicity…

Synchronicities and divinely timed signs are some of the most powerful manifestations on our paths. When we have the awareness to recognize them for what they are, they provide confirmation, guidance, encouragement and insights. They remind us that life is always fully aware of us and supporting us. We're all connected and never alone. We all have special signs that are part of our unique soul language. While they don't mean anything to others, they do mean something to us. One of my … [Read more...]

Absence enhances the experience... It was an overcast day all day... Then just as I stepped outside for a Nature walk, the sun appeared at the horizon below the blanket of clouds and my oh my did it look even more radiant!!!... A blazing orange colour with pink hues... bathing the trees in a golden light...

Even small and subtle is powerful... When we live from a place of loving appreciation, our world expands to include even the smallest and most subtle things that usually go unnoticed, that can make all the difference in our day and for others...

Life, such a gift... We're so blessed to experience life in our physical bodies, here on such a magnificent planet, Mother Earth... To experience everything through our multi-dimensional senses, beyond just our physical senses... what a gift we have here on Earth...

When I couldn't go outdoors, I would spend hours just looking at books filled with … [Read more...]

♥ Miracle of the Day ♥

Interactive energy fields in the holiday season... Since we're seemingly physical beings in our solid bodies and environments, it's easy to forget that we're actually energy beings, on all levels... Our bodies are all energy, even though they feel solid, and our thoughts, emotions and words are energy... Our personal fields of energy also expand far beyond our physical bodies... What does this mean for us?... At every given moment, our energy is interacting with everyone else's, and … [Read more...]
