Untie your knot. Let the stories unravel. Experience the chafing upon your release. Loosen what has held you tightly. And don’t forget to lean into the overwhelm of what is exposed. Knots are the old stories and beliefs that keep us trapped and bound to what was. As I untie my knot, it’s interesting to…

Success entails having a vision or goal and taking the steps necessary to achieve it. Success can also be achieving fame and fortune. Both are accurate definitions of success according to the dictionary so it’s important to know what you align to. For me, I resonate with achieving a goal or vision. Being known and…

Beginnings and endings. With one comes the other. We face them constantly in our lives, sometimes without our awareness. And sometimes with intentional choice. The endings that I was wrestling with earlier in the year are coming to completion. The once familiar career path of being a piano teacher is no longer what I hang…

It certainly does seem as though conversation with another would be simple and easy, yet all of us respond differently, often depending on the person or people present. I have always been self-aware in conversations. As much as I wish it were different, it is part of who I am. I can strongly attest to…

And at the same time, that’s the important piece to remember…it’s an emotional trigger…not something wrong with me. I started reading a very interesting book on trauma and the author reveals a powerful nugget in the…

Oh, how the mind can grab tight onto fear and overwhelm and throw things in a spinning tizzy. Ugh. I, for one, don’t tend to do well with unexpected information that I am unable to learn more about fairly immediately. If something comes up as a surprise to me, I want to be able to…

Ugh. Monkey chatter rattling away at the cages in my mind. Knowing the source of it yet getting lured into listening. When will the cycle end? It’s not that I always find myself lured into listening, but when I do…what an uncomfortable adventure…sigh. When the whispers of the heart are heard in the midst of…

Although simplifying can relate to many things, I’m going straight to the monkey chatter! When monkey chatter is eliminated (or at least quieted!), it is amazing what can happen. When I perform, I am engaged with the music. However, I also sense that I’m not as connected with it as I feel I could be. I…
