What’s Not Said

March 15, 2012

For everything that’s said, there are a million things unsaid. Two people I know of died recently. I wanted to tell Holly’s husband and children how much I liked and admired their wife and mom. How peaceful and calm and scared and human she was. But I didn’t. I wanted to tell Angel that I [...]

Non-Attachment? Or simply not Choosing?

March 8, 2012

I have a client who used to live his life in the future. He was in his head, planning, predicting, trying to control things before they occurred. It wasn’t all that pleasant for him, as you can imagine. So, he started working on his stuff and made some shifts. Except that he shifted a little [...]

March 1, 2012

This is a repost of a video blog I filmed back in November of 2010. That’s old. And I filmed it in my car, waiting to go into the dentist. But that imperfect style is the point, as  you’ll see… Here’s a purposely imperfect post dedicated to my awesome client whose family story is “Perfect or [...]

How to Skip to the Fun part of Enlightenment

March 27, 2011

The Universe sent me a note the other day. Here’s what it said: For millenniums, Amy, the path to enlightenment has been made up of many steps.

26 Paths to Enlightenment

February 5, 2011

What is Enlightenment, anyway? Enlightenment gets a bad rap. It’s a scary word. It sounds kind of holier-than-thou and all…I don’t know…special or hard or for-Buddhas-and-Yogis-but-not-for-you. Enlightenment isn’t any of those things to me. It’s not about being silent or meditating or being at peace when things outside of you turn to shit. It’s about: [...]

Ask Amy: How do I Get it All Done?

October 18, 2010

Dear Amy, First of all, I love your blogs.  I have so many projects and things that need to get done, I never finish all of them. There’s always something else to do. I’ve been trying to be okay with the unfinished business and just work on a couple of things at a time. Whatever [...]

Lucky You

October 17, 2010

I just saw an article about a man in Missouri who won the lottery…twice. Two separate lotteries, a few months apart. He says he’s lucky. Are you? Where do you think luck comes from? Is it in your genes or based on your star sign or the result of karma? Do we play any part [...]

Much More to Presence

October 13, 2010

The perk of presence that I usually focus on is that fear, worry, negative thoughts fall away. This is because those things do not exist in the Now. They are completely and [...]
