Life can be stressful, but the Sevillanos have taught me many things this week about how to relieve stress in our lives. Greetings from Seville, Spain, where I have been teaching body rolling workshops and giving Body Logic sessions to these wonderful people this week. Let me share several lessons I have learned here about […]
Sometimes referred to as “The Tapping Solution” or “Tapping Therapy,” EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique) therapy is having some amazing results working with people who have been through trauma or who suffer from addiction or who just need some emotional healing. I discovered this method from a link sent to me by my sister regarding an […]
Health and well-being are intricately tied to finding balance—in our bodies, minds, spirits, and relationships. We have been talking about growth and how to facilitate growth in our bodies, minds, spirits and relationships through gathering information, spending time in introspection, and then carrying out our plans through implementation. However, all of these wonderful efforts can […]
Introspection is needed for spiritual growth and healing. Last week we discussed seeking Information through immersing ourselves in the wise words written by inspired men. However, this immersion is shallow without the next “I”–the Introspection part of this process. Many people think of this as meditation, and meditation can certainly take the form of spiritual […]

Marriage requires introspection and growth by both parties to make it work. As a young girl, I was taught that the Golden Rule should be my guide in relationships, but then I got married and realized that trying to do for my husband what I would want done for me completely missed the mark for […]
Let’s all stop for a moment to celebrate marriage. I am not unfamiliar with the challenges marriage brings, and there have certainly been times when I did not feel like celebrating. However, the opportunity to be married, to work on our marriages, to work on ourselves in order to improve our marriages, and to share […]
Tragedy and grief are terrible companions, but tragedy happens, and the subsequent grief must be felt and worked through. My original plan for today’s blog was to write about the celebration of my 38th anniversary and begin a series of blogs about the three I’s in marriage. However, this week a dear friend’s father died […]
I received some of the best advice of my life from my teacher and mentor, Yamuna Zake, while I was in New York last week—stop, breathe, and wait. I am finishing up two years of training in New York by Yamuna in a method called “Body Logic.” When I began this training two years ago, […]
