Hello Sacred Journey
Her breaths are deep, Her eyes are wide, Her heart so open, Her antenna so high. She feels God in all things, Grace abounds, ‘Is this heaven?’, No one uttered a sound. ‘It can be’, one replied, ‘Hell no’, said another, In the midst of the confusion, She began to take cover. ‘You can shine here’, one proclaimed, ‘It’s a threat over there’, A chameleon she became, The sacred path was no where. She struggled along, Her antenna high then low, She wondered what could free her, And...
read moreTrust is Not a Feeling
Trust is not a feeling. From my experience, ‘trust’ is a choice — typically in the face of fear or unknown circumstances. ‘Fear’ however is a ‘feeling’, and often wins if we are not paying attention. I have several clients right now that are in the process of changing jobs There are lots of unknowns, which often breeds fear. That palpable emotion ‘fear’, often stops us in our tracks and keeps us in a victim mode and feeling paralyzed. Trust, however, when we hold her hand, guides us...
read moreCreate Space – Let It Go
When fear – pretending to be our friend – shows up, let it go. The fear can be about what others think, say, the unknown. We ‘let it go’ by creating space between us and ‘it’. Everything is energy. When we consciously pull our energy back, ‘it’ doesn’t have a dance partner. Come back home to you. Feel your strong platform. Breathe deeply. Starve the fear. Feed your creative soul. Create space – shine on! (Pinnacle View has a 20+ year track record of helping people just like you let...

I found this little turtle in our driveway Sunday morn before my walk. I moved him near the stream. Turtle medicine reminds us to slow down and pay attention. In my Steven Farmer booklet, Turtle reads, “Retreat”. “Stop trying to make something happen. You could stand to spend some time by yourself in nature. Although we call it a retreat, it’s really more a movement towards peace and harmony. The ocean’s been there a long, long time. Everyday there’s a sunset, no matter what else has happened.” Today...
read moreJoy in the Journey
I recently retuned from a retreat in FL, with a group of wise women. We talked about the culture in which we live; where we are asked to do more, go faster, be better. And, the missing ingredient…feeling better. We sat on the beach – stopped – breathed. We gave our self PERMISSION to stop, breathe and ask our self ‘what do I need?’. We did a ‘Miracle walk’: an opportunity to notice the possible discomfort that arises when we actually give our self PERMISSION. We digested the ‘permission’, and...

“Every day holds the possibility of a miracle.” – Elizabeth David Miracles are fascinating. I remember believing in miracles as a child. I looked for them, I craved them. When I looked for them, I would see them. During my women’s retreats, I often include a Miracle Walk. A Miracle Walk is when you take 15 minutes to walk with no conversation, no expectation, and eyes wide open. Something happens when we ‘see’ this way and yes, the miracles appear. Women come back with truly amazing stories of what they...

read moreHow Do We Get the Positive Messaging to Stick?
We know that the positive messages elevate us and the critic wears us down. I’ve had hundreds of clients ask ‘how do I make the negative messages go away?’. The answer, ‘you don’t’. We are human and being hard on our self is part of the package. The good news is — the more we enforce the positive reminders, the softer the voice of the critic. A quick tip is shifting from our head to our heart –shifting from the critic to compassion. (Thank you Brene Brown.) It’s time to remove our blinders...
