And PEACE our new measure of success.

May TRUTH be our new security,

And JOY our new status symbol."

Come Together
Thank you to all those who wrote that they saw me on "Entourage" last month.  It was strange to see myself on TV when I don't even watch TV.  Life is weird at times!  :)

Lot's going on this summer energetically, astrologically, and globally.  For the past year and a half, I've been getting a strong impression that its time to come together in commUnity. The time of the Lone Ranger is over.  This summer it's really hitting home that the way to handle these roller coaster times is to "tend and befriend."  How? By getting oxytocin, aka the "love hormone," flowing.

Whenever we nurture, support, uplift, or acknowledge one another, we release oxytocin.  Bonding happens.  It's most strongly felt during childbirth and sex, but happens in everyday life, too.  It makes us feel connected, supported, and loved.

I see more and more people opening up and sharing their gifts with the commUnity.  I see people unafraid of surrendering to their soul's calling, and stepping out in faith.  I see people breaking free of perceived limitations by following their hearts more than ever.  We can't do it alone; we need the support of our tribe to help see us through.

What You Can Do:
  • Feng Shui your friends, weeding Negative Nellie's and Downer Deb's from your life.
  • Find your tribe.  Seek out like-minded people to hang out with who "get" you. 
  • Find positive people who are supportive of your dreams and goals without criticizing, being negative or becoming jealous. Support others on their path.
  • Schedule social time on your weekly calendar.  Reach out to friends and acquaintances.  Stay in touch.  Find low- to no-cost ways to have fun.
  • Read up on the benefits of bonding with oxytocin:  Health Benefits of Oxytocin Bonding
This time of tremendous change is also a time of transformative healing, growth, and personal development for us all.  Regardless of what's going on in the world, by joining together, we uplift everyone.  Come together, y'all.  It's time.

Namaste,

Debbie

Did you know that sound has the power to transform our mental and emotional state and create a real sense of love, wonder and unity? It's true!

For centuries sound was the predominant method people used to change their state for the better, possibly even entering a world of ecstasy and bliss. How? By listening to organized patterns of vibration known as music.

In this one-of-a-kind therapeutic meditational experience you'll be taken on a journey to sound nirvana as you relax in physically and energetically healing restorative postures.

Space is limited; sign up today!

Only $30 in advance; $35 at the door.
