Can You Hear What I Hear?
“Remember the game where each participant sitting in a circle would pass on what they heard from the person sitting beside them? The sentence was whispered from one “ear to another” until it made its way to the last person in the circle. Everyone always had a good laugh comparing what was the original sentence to what it had morphed into during its circuitous journey. You may hear accurately or even see clearly, yet the lens of your unique perceptions can magnify, even distort, what you are hearing or seeing. Take the time to listen and...

“Remember the times when you were trying to find your way? In a new high school that had so many hallways, you didn’t know which one to take? A parking garage with umpteen levels: you were on seven but to get to it took you up and down several times; meeting your friend in front of a coffee shop while visiting them – no cell phone to locate them; the memory of being at a train station wishing you could jump the tracks to get to the right platform; and terminal panic running what seemed like kilometers every which way to get to your gate on...

read moreKita’s Gentle Message: Nourishing and Nurturing
“Do you gulp down your food? Are you standing at the kitchen counter while taking bites of your toast? After all, there’s no time to sit down most mornings. Is the Drive-Thru a familiar, fast, and convenient destination? Is snacking an “always” partner to sticking on the remote? Somehow these “eating” scenarios don’t equate with nourishing and nurturing food. The latter takes thoughtfulness, time, and care to experience and generate genuine pleasure. The words “nourishing” and “nurturing” don’t just apply to food. How you eat may be a...
read moreAbundance is Yours
“” Oh, you shouldn’t have”, “That’ll be too much trouble”, “What’s this for?”, “I can do it myself”, “Don’t bother”, “I didn’t really do anything”, “I haven’t got the time for this now”, “Let’s do it when the weather’s good”, …all these small, incidental expressions deflect the experience of receiving, and more likely than not, the experience of receiving some form of abundance. Whether an unexpected gift, a compliment, a favour, an invitation, saying “no” – even politely, is stopping the flow of abundance in your life. If passing on...
read moreFrom FYI to FYD
“FYI, an acronym that everyone is familiar with – “for your information”. Any time it’s used, the sender implies the content is important and exclusive to the recipient – for their eyes only. Over time, its overuse has perhaps taken the allure of exclusivity out of the equation. Maybe this is the moment to introduce a new expression of communicating that moves beyond literal information to exchanging energetic sensations. How does “For Your Dimension” ™ feel like to you? FYD™ happens when the exchange of content can only take place when the...

“Has someone or something emerged in your life lately? They’re of a kind nature, wanting to protect you and assure you that everything’s going to be all right. You have the strong feeling from them that you are on the right path for yourself despite differing sides and opinions. Have you found them in an extended family member or a work colleague perhaps your hairdresser or neighbour down the street? And if we take this further, could you have connected with them in your garden or by the water? In the woods or while you were looking up at the...

“Pray tell, what is your news? Does it go something like this: the hassle with the billing department? The dog pooing on your lawn? No milk for your cup of coffee? The stain on a freshly ironed shirt? An iPhone that won’t upload pics? The noisy construction outside? A missing sock, glasses or wallet? Kids late for their appointment? You missing an appointment? Rain on picnic day? Too long a lineup? Forgetting to get gas? – Now you’re stuck, or are you? Abandon the litany of grievances before they eat you alive. Pull yourself up. Dust off your...
read moreYellow Boots
“Newly acquired yellow boots demanded its owner “make tracks” to see if they were indeed as wonderful as they looked. Following big brother into a farmer’s field after a downpour was just the ticket. Though his pace was quicker, the boots held up in the thick water-logged mud even though their tops were sinking ever so precariously close to the puddle waterline. All was well and then it wasn’t. Suddenly, the back foot stubbornly held in the sticky morass and won’t budge. Getting a soaker was the least of any worries; losing a precious boot...
