Waiting for Your Love
Posted by: Unity on: February 9, 2010
Someone is waiting for only the special love that you can share. Perhaps it is your partner, your family, your friends or someone new who is waiting on you. Break down the walls that keep you from sharing the special gift of your love. The gift of your love costs nothing but has infinite and amazing returns on investment. Share your heart, share your love.
Never before in human history have so many been so connected all over the world, yet so few feel loved. How is it that we can chat, write and connect in so many ways yet lose the intimate connection with family, friends and new friendships? People are starving for love, starving for human contact and connection. The busyness that surrounds modern life places a wall around people’s hearts, places a wall that blocks out true spiritual heartfelt connections. Granted many are able to move beyond the superficial, but so many get lost in a blur of constact connectivity without the true reward of being known intimately. Being known intimately for who you are and loved for who you are, boosts a person’s self esteem, boost’s a person’s ability to cope with stress and change.
If you find that you are not able to cope with the world around you and feel worn out from stress – reach out to someone you can touch, who can look you in the eyes and affirm that you are someone worthwhile, someone who in worthy of love, someone who is worth the time it takes to sit by your side and listen to you. If babies thrive on human touch, don’t you think adults also thrive on human contact? Why is it as adults we lose the ability to give and receive friendly affection? A pat on the shoulder, a gentle hug or a smile with direct compassionate eye contact can help others and yourself thrive and stay alive.
Perhaps you know of others who are lonely or suffering, perhaps you are the one who can help bring them some comfort, joy, and love. Don’t let the fear of reaching out and being rejected for your efforts keep you from allowing your heart the freedom to give love generously. Don’t let the whirlwind of life keep you from slowing down long enough to hug someone, give your ear to listen from your heart and your shoulder to cry on if needed.
Some easy ways that you can move from being closed off yet overly connected is to smile and say hello to each person you pass while you go about your day. Smile truly from your heart and through your eyes. The special light and love that is yours to give will come through in that brief moment where your soul acknowledges another with compassion and respect for the journey we all are on together. Ask someone new out for lunch, perhaps you feel intimidated wondering what you will talk about or why they would go out to lunch with you. Don’t pass negative judgement on yourself. Quit rejecting yourself and removing the option of acceptance from someone else before they even have had a chance to know you. Believe you have something amazing to offer, something so valuable that the world would be lost without it!
Everyone has something vital to give this world. Everyone has a unique love and light that is all their own. Take time to find out why others are so special and let them find out why you are so lovely, too. Remember, someone is waiting for your love.

What is the necessity for your life path? 09.29.2005
Posted by: Unity on: January 14, 2010
I wrote the below back on September 29, 2005. I am surprised by how much it still reflects my journey. Sometimes old writings can sound like a completely different time or place and no where near where my mind is at. However, the below writing still resonates with my spirit. If you want, take some time and answer the questions for yourself and see what your spirit needs for you to continue on your life path.
What was the turning point where you found your worth?
What is the necessity you have found in this transformation?
What is the necessity for your life path?
I have found that I am the center of my peace and well being. I control whether I am at peace or whether I am spinning out of control. I have found that I can radiate light, love and peace regardless of what anyone else is doing or how anyone else reacts. It is not up to anyone else but me whether I will shine and be a beacon for light or I will hide away. My turning point was finding that I still have doubts about my worth but it is getting easier to stand in a place of truth and confidence for who I am and what I have to say to the world. It is getting easier to be all that I am and not hide my talents, gifts and wisdom from others out of fear of being shunned, invalidated or ridiculed. I can speak my truth and not react to another for I have faith in my truth and faith in who I am. I am that I am, I am a vibration of love and light, one with the universe and all that is, and it is my own awareness and remembrance in the moment that keeps me in serenity, oneness and love.
It is a necessity for me to take moments to expand myself out into the Oneness of All that Is, which helps me to be in serenity and compassion for myself and others. Without these moments, I stop honoring myself and delve into moments of stress, anger and fear where I feel alone and wish to return completely to the state of One. It is necessary for me to remind myself in every moment of my oneness with all that is for I am All that Is, and in those moments of remembering I feel love, honor, peace, joy and compassion for all things, myself included.
Release the Old – Embrace the New 2010
Posted by: Unity on: December 31, 2009
Today is the final day for 2009, and so many of us are ready for the year to be over! It has been a year of trial and challenge for so many. Have you been able to make it through the fire and rise above the negativity? This New Year’s Eve is a perfect time to reflect on this last year, the good, bad and ugly of what has happened not only in your life but in the world around you. Take stock of what has worked and what hasn’t. What areas of your life have you triumphed and succeeded, what areas fell short and disappointed you?
So many lightworkers, healers, spiritual coaches have been through the fires of challenge and strengthening to improve their resolve for creation of a better world. Perhaps as a coach or leader you have felt your own light diminish in your times of trial. It is time to let go of the draining energies of this last year and rise above the challenge. Allow your light to return brighter and greater than ever. Learn from this last year, remember who you have always been regardless of the physical challenges that have been present. While 2009, was not a 9 year numerlogically, it felt like a 9 combined with an 11. 9 – being a time for closure of old projects, completion of cycles and preparation for a brand new phase of life. 11 – being a spiritual time of challenge, mastery of oneself and joining with your higher spiritual purpose. As a year of spiritual mastery and completion – it is no wonder that this last year was filled with so much focus on the release of physical securities, physical dependency on money, material wealth and bringing to light all of the excess of the ego.
It was all in preparation for a higher level of spiritual life, a return to oneness with a true purpose or mission for life. With so many having lost jobs it left openings for a return to what each person saw as their true passion for this life, what their dreams were and where they may be better suited to live. It is freeing to let go of the tight bonds of the box of office life or working for another to have a stable and secure financial life. When one is bound in a box, it is hard for growth to happen. Just like a fish in a small bowl, it doesn’t grow any larger than the confines of the bowl. But a similar fish in a pond or ocean could grow to ten times its size.
When the spirit is allowed control over your life, your life grows to ten times its size, because the spirit knows that there are infinite possibilities for your life. There are infinite supplies, infinite abundance and limitless energy to supply your passion, your higher purpose and your life when you unite yourself with the infinite creator or all things. It is not only about the law of attraction to solely have material wealth and abundnace. Move beyond the physical to the true abundance of what is gained by uniting with the divine and returning to a state of oneness with all in spirit. Infinite peace, infinite love and infinite joy are waiting for you!
Tonight – take advantage of the energy of the birth of the New Year with the full blue moon. Write out all that you want to let go of from this last year or any painful memory, regret or negativity that haunts your life in any way. Let go of it all and release it back to God and the Universe. Give thanks for the challenges, abundance and blessings in your life. With gratitude fully accept the happiness, peace and harmony that are the gifts for you to receive.
Then take time to dream, visualize the goals and intentions that you want to happen this next year. What do you hope for, what do you long to have happen in your life? Anything is possible, don’t limit yourself or your life with negativity or self-imposed limits. Dream as big as the sky and write it out. Try to really find your heart’s desire, your soul’s desire for this next year. Write everything out and then release it to God and the Universe. Rather than worry about each little detail of how these goals could possibly happen, allow the infinite creator to assit you in their creation. God has infinite ways to manifest in your life and when you join forces with the infinite creator – your life will have infinite ways to have your goals manifest. Be open to receiving divine guidance, support and wisdom on how to acheive your dreams. When you are open to divine inspiration – miracles happen in your life.
2010 – is a year for miracles, a year for working as one with God, as the co-creator of your life if you choose to align with your spiritual nature and your highest self for the best possible life. 2010 – numerologically is a 3 year and a 10 year. 10 – being one with the infinite. 3 – being in harmony with the community, allowing your light to be shared with the world around you. As we each work toward living our higher purpose, we can work together to build a better world filled with light, hope, love and peace. However, if you resisted the lessons of this past year and still refuse to go with the flow of life. This next year may be filled with further challenges that are meant to awaken you to your soul’s purpose. Trinity (3) represents cycles of many kinds: life-death-rebirth, Maiden-Mother-Crone, God-Christ-Holy Spirit. Allow yourself the gift of working with the cycles of life – freely and with ease. Use this year to transform your life.
If you are struggling to transform your life or feel overwhelmed in the face of the new year, please contact me. I have been transforming my life and others for more than a decade. I would be happy to share the wisdom and guidance I have received to help you on your journey.
Wishing everyone a brilliantly blessed New Year filled with love, joy, happiness, strength, renewed faith, peace and prosperity beyond your wildest dreams! It is all waiting for you – embrace it!
Affirmations for 2010
Posted by: Unity on: December 24, 2009
For Christmas, I created a special spiritual journey calendar for a dear friend of mine. It included rituals, meditations and reminders for her healing journey and spiritual development. For each week, I wrote an inspirational and empowering affirmation for her to focus on that week. After writing them all up, I decided that they were too powerful for them to be shared with only one person. I hope that they provide you with inspiration, empowerment and encouragement for today and all of 2010. May this New Year be blessed with infinite possibilities for you and your life. You have the power within you to truly move beyond any barriers that are keeping you from living a life that is extraordinary, filled with love, passion and peace. Be blessed on your journey!
Affirmations are a wonderful tool to help focus your thoughts and intentions on what you truly desire for your life. Repeating affirmations help keep your thoughts positive and overwire the negative thought patterns that have been crowding your mind, keeping you locked in negative cycles. Use the below affirmations to assist you in turning your life in a new direction where you are fully empowered to be the beautiful, luminous and loving being that you already are!
2010 is a year for empowerment. It is about being empowered not only for yourself and with God, but also about sharing what has empowered you with others. If you break down the numbers for 2010, you can look at it this way: 2 (you plus others), 0 (God), 1 (You), 0 (God) = 3 (You, God, Others working together in harmony). Everyone has something important to share. You have something important and vital to share with others. Don’t let fear, doubt or insecurity keep you from sharing the awesome blessing that resides in your soul. You have something unique and beautiful to share that no one else on the planet can in just the same way. Raise yourself up and allow the light in your heart to shine, spread and cast away the darkness that tries to keep you and the world surrounded in fear, doubt and mistrust. Believe in yourself!

Picture Perfect Holidays
Posted by: Unity on: December 15, 2009
Holidays making you feel stressed out and overwhelmed?
SLOW DOWN!
Remember to breath and live in each moment. You don’t have to make each day or moment of the holidays perfect. Lower your expectations of how the ‘picture perfect’ holiday season should be and remember the true meaning of why we choose to celebrate at all. Celebrate the love that is shared when you gather together with family & friends. Celebrate the simple joy of taking the time to create a holiday tradition with your children – whether it is baking sugar cookies, singing songs or playing games together.
You won’t remember the ‘perfect’ things about the holidays – you will remember the love in your heart, the love shining in your family and friends eyes and how much fun you had just being together.
Renew Your Spirit
Posted by: Unity on: December 11, 2009
Take time this weekend to renew your spirit – do at least one soul feeding activity that you keep putting off because you don’t have time or don’t feel you can waste the time on you. Time is never wasted on you or on activities that inspire, renew, or bring your spirit into moments of joyful play. Quit denying yourself the small pleasure of creative activities that you know you want to do but never get around to.
In Memory of George Stevens
Posted by: Unity on: December 8, 2009
A dear friend of mine, George Stevens, passed away last week while I had been out sick. He had been a mentor and guide to me as I started my healing journey in San Francisco. George was the first to point out to me that I was a healer and helped me place several pieces of the healing puzzle together. I remember fondly the many lunches, dinners and gathering with friends to discuss spirituality, healing and our journey in life. George gave me a gift of compassion in the form of a large rose quartz crystal, that has traveled with me over the years, as I moved away from San Francisco and began quick years of moving from Minnesota, to Indiana and now down to Florida. Time taken planning a new life with Donald and wedding plans, I had lost touch with George. Though always felt him in my heart and am thankful I had a few final correspondences with him over this last year.
There are some sad memories realizing now how strong of a fight he had and wishing there had truly been time to see him while Donald and I were on honeymoon in San Francisco. I later found out he had been in the midst of chemo treatment at UCSF hospital. I am trying to let go of the regret of not doing more but also honoring the journey we had shared together. Part of me feels that while I was out sick and sleeping so much last week, perhaps I was with him in spirit as he crossed over. Helping to guide a dear friend back to the realm of light. He was such a gentle soul, always offering kindness, compassion and acceptance to everyone he met. He worked tirelessly for a hospice center and that center took care of him in his last days.
Currently, I feel very selfish for the past year, so much busy time building a life with Donald and enjoying the new adventures we had in Florida. So many happy days and not fully realizing how devastating things were for George. Part of me knows that everything happened as it should but the healer part of me wonders why I hadn’t been more involved and reached out more these last few months. Truthfully, I am not a great friend as though I often think of every friend and send out heart wishes to each, I don’t pick up the phone, email or write often. I get lost in the day to day life and charge onto the next new adventure without looking back to see what was left behind. Perhaps – that is due to the double firey Aries that I am – which George helped me to discover so many years ago. He helped me discover so much that I never knew existed and opened me to a different world. I will miss your presence on the Earth, George, but I welcome you in spirit, always in love.
Below are some of the final correspondences that I would like to remember and not lose sight of:
Dated 11-29-08—————————————————————————
Alicia:
I guess you will get this when you are still on your Honeymoon or when you have returned home. Thank you so much for trying to get in touch with my while you were on the West Coast. I was here, but in the hospital. Briefly, at the end of August, I had my right hip replaced, which seemed like a big deal at the time although it was a very straightforward procedure. The complication occurred when they took an X-ray of the newly installed hip and discovered quite an advanced malignant cancer in my pelvic area. So the last three months have been filled with clinics, diagnosis followed by other diagnosis, etc. Finally, I started treatment for the cancer when you were here on the West Coast. The schedule is: five days in the hospital for chemo, followed by three weeks of rest. Then, back into the hospital for another round of chemo. At this point, I am in a rest period and some days are good, other days are dominated by fatigue. That’s how it is with chemo. I definitely feel like I will survive this cancer based on the medical help I’m getting and the nutritional changes plus meditation and support for people.
However, the hospitalizations have really taken me out of my life in chunks. I am very sorry to have missed you, and please know that I wish you and Don all the happiness you can create. I am very glad that you have found each other and that you are supportive to each other as healers, friends and lovers. I send my very best to both of you. Geo
Dated 12-12-08—————————————————————————
Alicia:
These are really wonderful pictures, thank you so much for sharing them with me. I am particularly taken by the photo of you in your wedding dress at the foot of the grand staircase on board ship. When we were working with Chase, we talked about your previous lives as an angel and your decision to come here to learn embodiment. To me, this is like the picture of your happy arrival. You’ve just walked down from heaven and you are beautifully dressed and truly radiant. You are ecstatic to be here. That’s what I see.
Also, do you remember the wonderful still life painting that you gave me? It has a wonderful orange melon and green fruits in a dish? It hangs in my kitchen and I look at it every day and think of you. We are in touch. Here’s a warm, loving hug to you and Don. May this be a magical holiday for both of you. Wow, what a string of celebrations! You are in my heart. Geo.

Happy 1st Anniversary – 11.11.09
Posted by: Unity on: November 11, 2009
Wedding Day 11-11-2008
Thought I would share some of our songs on our first wedding anniversary. One year ago today, Donald and I, were married on Smathers Beach in Key West, FL at 9AM. By this time we were relaxing in our cabin on the Enchantment of the Seas – Royal Caribbean cruise. Later that night we celebrated with close family and friends. Hope you enjoy some of our special love songs. May they help open your heart to experience unconditional love for yourself in a new way.
Today being 11.11.2009 or 11.11.11 take a moment to allow yourself to be fully at peace. Let your heart be filled with peace, for yourself, for your family and for the world. Allow that peace to expand out from your heart to surround your home, surround your city and finally expand out to surround the entire Earth in a blessing of the peace found within your soul. When one of us is at peace, others are able to reflect and find peace withing themselves easier. Be a ripple of peace that spreads through the ocean of humanity. You can be a shining light, just by being you!
