"One perfect thing I continue to strive to do is experience my life fully....the lightness of joy and the darkness of struggle. Last week I experienced incredible emotional pain of a deep wound and because of my journey with this burden today I am in the experience of complete joy. My body, mind, heart and spirit are lifted and expanded to a spaciousness with peace and more love.

Once I released the old pain, my faith in me rested with my heart. Staying inside with my feelings while connecting with every precious moment continued the healing for me. I knew that an old part in me had died. Beyond the density of the heavy barrier of emotion, I felt the light draw me into the vastness of a transformation. Here peace moved into every cell of my body and I began to see so much beauty. It was as if I was seeing my life through different eyes. The blue sky reflected the colors of spring peeking through the grayness of nature. My heart was exploding with so much love as I bowed down to my loved ones and for where I am in my life.

I felt more alive....more youthful....more love.....more passion.....more calmness......more faith...more acceptance....healthier and a deeper part of myself, another level of consciousness. My gratitude is flowing and the wisdom of the divine set up has again lifted me to a higher altitude so that I can see more of the Universal Plan."

"The deepening with our emotional healing is constant. Even today, after years of taking responsibility for my life lessons and years of releasing and being in touch with my feelings, I am faced with emotional struggle. Out of nowhere comes the pain of my wound again. I can say from my ego or my head... "I'm not hurt anymore...I have forgiven them or I have dealt with it."...but again the pain rises up in me....not just emotional but also physical pain pounding through my shoulders and back.

The Inner Workout holds the space, creating the safe container for me to be with the truth of what needs to be embraced or if not taken care of it may become an explosion. This process shows me the pathway through the fire of my emotions, assisting me to deepen as I release another layer of past suppressed pain that embodies the lie that shows its face again...."I'm not good enough or I'm unlovable or I need someone else's love and approval".

Thank God ...I have The Inner Workout to guide me to peace and more love again and again and again. I am grateful!"

"If someone changed direction in relationship with me, it directs me to go inside to feel and heal.

Every relationship takes us to the love and the pain that is in us always. My past… let go, lifts me into the present beauty of my life and the loving peace of my heart."

"It's time for some spring cleaning! Sorting out drawers and purging in our closets gives us a fresh, spacious feeling. Take a peek inside the compartments of your heart and clear out any resentments or issues you may be holding onto. Release any emotions that have been shoved away all winter by using The Inner Workout as a cleaning tool.

Let go of any relationship conflict that has kept you hostage in your mind with fear, self-doubt, hurt and disappointment. Dust off your negative thoughts and connect with your authentic, loving self.

Create peace in your home and in your heart! Spring is here and it is a wonderful opportunity to share love and joy!"

"If there are any conflicts in our life they are inside us. There is no other place that we can resolve any issues but inside us. The most important connection is inside us. We transform our life from inside us. We can reflect love and peace each day from inside us. Our anxieties and fears are waiting to be held inside us. We are supported by God and the Universe when we support ourselves from inside us. Take the time each day to go inside and breathe into all that you are and feel ....the gift of self-worth is inside us."

"Each day is another opportunity for success and for greatness. Each day we can celebrate the chance to become all that we are meant to be and for honoring all that we already are. Each day is another chance to love more and open to the grace of every intimate moment of peace. Each day is the arrival of precious time to be with our soul's evolution, our loved ones and our purpose. Each day is a gift to inspire our life. Each day brings us new struggles to test our inner truth and our commitment to a spiritual practice. Each Day brings us closer to what is important.


At the end of the day be with the hard times as you take responsibity. At the end of the day, feel the emotions that the struggle has taken you to. At the end of the day breathe into your feelings. At the end of the day let go of judgment and blame. At the end of the day forgive. At the end of the day connect to your compassionate heart.


Live every day with the end in mind."

"Celebrating with loved ones...our close intimate circle of family and friends who love us unconditionally. Creating unforgetable memories with the hearts of many who have always been there for us...so safe and loving. Every minute floated on the wings of love.

Many surprises unfolded as the evening raised the vibration of joy. We are still dancing with the songs of love and tasting the delicious flavours of the evening. We are so grateful to experience heaven on earth. Thank you!"
