A kind endorsement from friends and colleagues
I’m delighted that the recent Town Crier newsletter from CenterForSacredStudies.org included this article. The Center for Sacred Studies is dedicated to sustaining ways of life, based on collaboration and reciprocity with the Earth and all Her beings. I hold my ordination through this wonderful organization and continue to be involved in their dynamic...A Meditation on The Voice of the Feminine
It was a joy to lead a beautiful meditation on The Voice of The Feminine online on July 15 for the Center for Sacred Studies. If you are seeking to remain grounded in this chaotic time, I encourage you to draw upon the inspiration of Kuan Yin, Goddess of Compassion, She who hears the cries of the world. She has shaped our voices for millennia as a constant source of perseverance during the most trying of circumstances. She will tether you in the storm of chaos as she has done for thousands of years for people all over the world. Chanting her mantra and sitting in the presence of Kuan Yin in meditation can help free yourself from anxiety as you are cleansed by her witness. She breaks the spells of silence and invisibility so you can relate to yourself and others with compassion instead of fear or...My latest audio: How prayer becomes love
I had a wonderful conversation with Janet Conner on her podcast series “Praying at the Speed of Love.” She is a “prayer artist,” author and teacher who hosts a wonderful biweekly podcast filled with REAL conversations with REAL people about REAL prayer. Janet says, “After 5,000 years of prayer prescribed by patriarchy, we are ready for prayers that cherish the body, embrace all hearts, expand the mind, and enchant the soul … guests dive into deep, intimate—even outrageous—conversations about their personal experiences with whole new kinds of prayer.” Join us in this delicious discussion...My newest workshop: Voice of the Feminine

In my latest post at Exploring the Prayerfield on Patheos, I highlight the wisdom of the late spiritual teacher and leader Sobonfu Somé. In her indigenous frame of being, Sobonfu called on spirit to lead the way. In this time of great transition, upheaval, and polarization, her insights and guidance continue to inspire and give us hope and possibilities for moving forward together. Read the whole post...Unwinding with Chi Nei Tsang
I see the manifestations of daily stress in the bodies of my clients. The tension in our muscles often gets our attention, but stress is also held in our abdomens and internal organs. Read more in my latest article at NY Spirit about how the ancient practice of Chi Nei Tsang, as well as exercises you can do on your own, can lovingly direct attention to this often neglected...Two recent audio interviews to enjoy
I thoroughly enjoyed participating in stimulating, thought-invoking, soul-searching interviews recently with two extraordinary people: • Richard Dugan on his radio show Tell Me Your Story. You can listen to the stream here • The Rev. Misty Tyme—interfaith minister, author, speaker—on her podcast The Forgiveness Solution. Share our special time...Healing our hearts & the world with Ho’oponopono
Ho’oponopono is a Hawaiian healing practice that I love. It means “to make things right.” By feeling and saying the words “I’m sorry, I love you, please forgive me, I thank you,” we take responsibility for ourselves and the world we create. You can read my contemplation about applying this powerful practice in the midst of heartache and turmoil in my most recent Patheos...Exploring the Prayerfield: My new Patheos blog
So excited to announce my latest venture: As a columnist for Patheos, with a blog called Exploring the Prayerfield. Patheos aims to be “the premier online destination to engage in the global dialogue about religion and spirituality, and to explore and experience the world’s beliefs … Patheos brings together faith communities, academics, and the broader public into a single environment, and is the place where many people turn on a regular basis for insight, inspiration, and stimulating discussion.” Sounds like I fit in perfectly! You can read my initial post here, and I invite you to check out — and comment on! — all the others as well, including my latest, “In the eye of the storm: riding the calm...Essay on Prayerness featured by NY Spirit
