Remembering British Medium, Ronald Hearn
I was saddened to hear of the passing last month of a dear old friend, renowned medium, Ronald Hearn. Ronald was a kind and loving man with a tremendous gift. He was a natural psychic and medium who gave me invaluable readings over the course of many years. His accuracy was phenomenal and he was well respected in the spiritual community. He will be sorely missed.

Take a Walk on the Wild Side: Encounters with Animals in Nature
Most of us have had the experience — wonderful, heart-stopping, sometimes terrifying — of unexpectedly encountering an animal in the wild. It may be the tranquil sight of deer off in the woods, or a hawk circling in the canyons of Manhattan. It can be scary, as in some of the recent bear sightings on the East Coast, or inspire reverence for the raw beauty of the creature sighted.
Movies/Reviews
As She Is – A film by Megan McFeely
“As She Is” is a wonderful exploration of the nature of feminine energy, and could not be more timely, coming as it does at a real crisis point in our world. Produced and directed by Megan McFeely, this is her journey, her exploration, but it is ours, too – and what she learns has implications for healing our world that has been so damaged in the last hundred years by wars, domination, the plundering of resources, and turning a blind eye to suffering.

We have this ability too, but while we are encased in physical bodies and self-limiting beliefs about physical laws and linear time, we often forget to use our ability to see beyond these things.

Developing Your Yogic Powers to Make the World a Better Place
Anyone who casually skims the verses of The Yoga Sutra, the third century root text available in nearly every yoga studio, bumps into a most perplexing fact. The third chapter on Mystical Powers describes specific causes for supernormal abilities like mind reading, invisibility, and flying. So what exactly are the causes for superpowers? And how can we develop them within ourselves to make the world a better place?
