In my coaching practice with children and youth, they often come to me having emotional challenges. Sometimes they’ve been bullied, sometimes they’re depressed, suicidal or in despair. Often one of the first things they tell me is what they’ve been labelled with – ADD, ADHD, OCD, Asperger’s, etc. And my one and only response to them has been, […]
If you’re a parent, educator or health professional who wants to support the development of the full potential of your child in this lifetime, you may also find yourself connected to experiences of helping a child to complete on their past lifetimes. When your child is exhibiting unexplained behaviours, it may be that it is because of unresolved past […]
I am reading and hearing about the beautiful and profound journey of Kristine Barnett and her son, Jacob who was diagnosed with moderate to severe autism when he was 3 years old. Kristine was told that he would never read or write. Today at 14, he is taking graduate level classes at university in Indianapolis and scientists are predicting […]
We all communicate in different ways and it really isn’t necessary to force anyone to communicate in the way that we believe that they should. Rather let us compassionately allow every child to communicate what’s inside of them in their own way. The short clip at the bottom of the post illustrates what I’ve found in […]
A week ago today, a friend called me in tears as she had just heard about the shooting of children and adults at Sandyhook Elementary School in Newtown, Connecticut. I also burst into tears when she told me the news. We all feel broken-hearted for the children and adults who will not live their dreams and for the families […]
Today is World Autism Awareness Day. I celebrate those children, youth and adults who live with autism. It is not an easy world for them to live in.

This is a beautiful interview about incredible optimism, joy, happiness and gratitude from a delightful 108 year old, Holocaust survivor who still practises piano 3 hours/day. Her teachings are wonderful.
Apparently the biggest space weather storm in 5 years is hurtling towards Earth and is expected to arrive tomorrow and last through Friday. Do you feel the shifts in your body, mind etc. when we are being bombarded for example by solar flares? I know that I do and so do many sensitive chidren and […]
This study from the University of British Columbia shows that children’s happiness is connected to their relationships with adults especially and peers and others outside of the home. Children, youth, all of us are tribal/community beings at heart, soul and spirit. We thrive in communities of like-minded, like-visioned people who can embrace all of us including our difference. […]
We live in a society that discourages children and youth from daydreaming. Have we ever asked ourselves why? There are more negative connotations to daydreaming then there are positive. However the lastest scientific evidence shows something different. It shows that it is in fact healthy for people of all ages to daydream or as University of […]
Meditation with all of its benefits has finally gone mainstream (see link below) . It is one of the most useful tools for achieving inner joy, peace and calm that a child, youth or adult can have in their toolbag. Meditation is simple and has no cost. It is perhaps the most powerful spiritual exercise […]
I have had a family of robins – growing up in the nest of a tree in my courtyard garden. Today they are gone. Over the last while, I would open the kitchen door in the morning and at dusk and and hear their excited cries for food when Mother lands on the nest. They […]

I send my prayers to the people and all beings in Japan in the midst of suffering and massive destruction. Japan is the land of my ancestors. As the land of my ancestors, she called me home when it was time. It was then in my 32nd year that I connected as as a third generation Canadian, to her soil, her people, her sacred […]
