Spring may be all about new beginnings, but as the trees began budding, and the first brave wildflowers of an early spring bloomed, on that last hot March day, I was faced with an ending. My beloved French bulldog, Louis, suddenly succumbed to a large ruptured tumor we didn’t even know he had. One minute he was his normal demanding self, and the next… And even though the loss...
We ‘tappers’ know that EFT works. And as silly as it sounds, we’ve seen it work for a wide variety of issues, so many that some professionals poo-poo it because they think such a claim can’t be true. It’s been hailed as a pain reliever, performance enhancer, trauma buster, and health improver. Now, thanks to the efforts of Dawson Church, author of Genie in Your Genes and other researchers,...
How often have you heard someone or yourself say, “I’m an alcoholic, I’m diabetic, I’m obese, I’m disabled. I”m depressed.” These are just some examples of the way we identify with a health condition. But, you say, it’s true, I am _____. Are you really? Is that WHO you are? Is that the truth you want to affirm about yourself? Or is it just part of what you are...
We’ve all been taught to expect that healing takes time. Not only does it take time, but depending on your condition it takes a prescribed amount of time. For the most part, it appears this is true. We expect a cold to last for a week or two. Broken bones are in a cast for a set amount of time. So imagine my surprise when my son Sean...

This belief shows up in all areas of life: relationships, finances, love, health, happiness, you name it. Chances are if you feel that way in one area of your life, it’s spilling over into others. This limiting belief may be tied to...
(This is the fourth of ten beliefs in our series.) The belief that “I can heal all by myself” really is true. You can, and do, heal yourself all the time. All healing is ultimately self-healing. The mind can instruct the body to heal, even instantly. Cells that are malfunctioning can become healthy again when their environment becomes healthy. So why is this a limiting belief? Quite simply, because...
(This is the second of 10 Beliefs in our Wellness Beliefs and Healing series. ) Do you really feel like it’s safe or in your best interest to get well? This may seem like a silly question. Most people would say, and mean, that of course they want to get well, and the sooner the better. Consciously this may be true. But on a deeper level, it’s probably far...
(Don’t miss out on any posts in this series. Subscribe here) How often have you heard someone say, “Well, it doesn’t matter what I do, I’m going to get (fill in the blank) anyway?” Not! It is true that genes are responsible for a small number of relatively rare diseases. Hemophilia would be one such example. It is also true that you inherit neural programming and genes from your...
How the mind activates healing, or how it makes you ill, is a hot topic right now. And for good reason. Although mind healing is certainly nothing new, it’s recently caught the Western world by storm. The question is no longer whether or not mind healing is for real.
