March 17, 2009
Welcome to a week of celebration and re-birth. We begin with today's celebration of St. Patrick's day - a day marked with with anything green and gold, shamrocks and luck. On Friday, March 20th, we will experience the Spring Equinox. Translated literally, equinox means
"equal night." During this time, the sun is positioned above the equator, making day
and night equal in length all over the world.
In the northern hemisphere the March equinox marks the start
of spring and has long been celebrated as a time of rebirth. The combination of these two events (St. Patrick's Day and the Spring Equinox) invites us to celebrate our growth as we claim the opportunity to re-invent ourselves.
In Park City, Utah, I am surrounded by signs of spring - chirping birds, budding trees, and growing flowers. Nature is awakening from a long winter's sleep. As I look outside my doorstep, I witness the Tulips breaking through the soil (and snow), reaching towards the sun and growing each day. It strikes me that the Tulips, like all other forms of nature, are tuned to the Great Mystery. They don't need to know why they are a certain shape or shade of color, they don't need to know when they will be fully mature, they don't require an understanding of their path. Rather, they simply allow the natural process of life to unfold, year after year, season after season. They allow their unique beauty and essence to shine forth without trying to be something else.
Watching the tulips grow, reminds me to allow the process of life to unfold. They remind me of the importance to express my gifts, beauty, and essence. They remind me that one of greatest things a human being can do is to accept the Mystery and surrender to the natural unfolding of timing and manifestation. They remind me that it is o.k. to NOT KNOW the reasons why things happen. They remind me to be present with what IS.
During this powerful week of re-birth and renewal, may you take time to nourish the seeds that you have planted this past year (thoughts, ideas, skills, and dreams). May you take time to honor and identify your gifts, your beauty, and your essence. May you celebrate being alive and trust that a new season is beginning. May you be bathed in hope that everything is changing for the better. And, most of all, may you allow the process to unfold.
With love & light,
BELIEVE in the possible. CREATE the possible. LIVE the possible.

COACHING TIP
|
Pinpoint Your Passions
Sometimes we don't know our passions simply because we are not paying attention. To become more aware of your passions, follow these 3 steps.
Step 1: Carry a notebook or journal around with you for one week.
Step 2: Take note of: What excites you during the day? What brings you joy? What brings you deep satisfaction? What produces positive energy?
Step 3: At the end of the week, review your notes. Identify consistencies or themes. Organize your observations into specific subject areas. Then, commit to taking 1 action step that will nourish those passions during the next 30 days.

Spring Equinox Rituals
The Spring Equinox marks the beginning of the Zodiac calendar. It is a powerful time to visualize and consider what you would like to experience in the next year. See below for ways to tune into this powerful cycle.
 Take a walk in nature. Notice what trees and plants are blooming and feel the spring air. Clean up anything that does not belong in the natural environment.
- Write down your goals, wishes and desires. In a journal, consider what you would like to achieve or experience during the next year.
- Color or paint hard boiled eggs. Eggs are another symbol for new life. Write or paint symbols onto the eggs that represent the things you want to manifest in the coming season. Then, breathe deeply and visualize your goals coming into being. Peel and eat the eggs to absorb the things you desire.
- Meditate. Find a quite space to simply BE. Play inspiring, instrumental music, open the windows to hear the songs of the birds outside, or simply tune into the sound of your breathing. Contemplate your new beginnings.
