Posts on energy — how it moves through us, around us, and between us. Reiki, energy sending, energy signatures, and the gradual learning to read what’s underneath the words people say.

Punishments
Shannon and I were talking today about punishments. At 16, she’s old enough now—and good enough—that she doesn’t really get many punishments anymore. The only thing punishment-worthy in the past year was when she forgot to tell me she wouldn’t be home until 7 and I was expecting her at 5. She didn’t call…

Struggling Again
They say it takes 28 days to create a new habit. I think it takes a lot less to create a bad one or to lose your momentum on the good ones. September was a rough month for work, but October’s been even worse. What’s happened is what usually happens when I get stressed with …

Meditative Work: Dream Boy’s Weekly Visit
He prefers Saturday mornings, when I’m meditating. This week, lighter, more social, learning something new. And the old gatekeeper is back — the woman who used to keep us separated. Why now?

Explaining the Dance of Dominance and Submission
I’m being challenged to explain myself. Nothing new about that, mind you, but this time, people want to know exactly how I see this whole Domination/submission thing that’s emerging with my exploration of my dominant side. Of course, I don’t need to explain anything to anybody. Then again, I do need to explain it for…

Do You Have Faith in Me?
George Michael’s “Faith” is playing on my internal soundtrack when I arrive at work and my colleague realizes she hasn’t given me her opinion in 15 hours. “I think you just don’t know what you want,” she intones in that smarmy voice that just keeps going long after I’ve ignored her and walked away. It…

If I Don’t Come Back
While sitting in the 20th iteration of a high-level meeting and discussing the same things we’ve talked through 19 times before, I noticed a VIP sitting in the corner, absent-mindedly trimming his fingernails. It reminded me of stories of kamikaze pilots trimming their nails before a battle from which they would not return. So that…

Turning Ideas into Prosperity
Copyrighted by Lorna Tedder. Originally published in Ideas come at the oddest moments. Or not so odd. Sometimes the Universe has to wave a great, big scarlet flag to get my attention. As my mentor has reminded me, the work I do has value. I’m still stewing over exactly how to establish various “streams of…

Not Forgotten
There have been times in recent years when I’ve focused on breaking logjams. Lots of times. Both mine, and for other people who asked my help. Where I put my focus gets a lot of juice, sort of like a pressure washer blasting away in a concentrated area. Just because it’s difficult does not mean…

Feeling Lucky
I’m feeling pretty good right now. Lucky, in fact. I think my ex dumped this house at just the right time—before the new roof, before the Pergo went bad, before I hand-laid the new patio—and when the real estate market was still quite high. He got the max dollar for it that I’ll never see.…

Vision — The Perfect Evening
It’s another vision, and it’s a lovely one for this special Tuesday when the Law of Attraction is in full effect. Hold these thoughts in mind, relish them in your own way, recreate them in your own spheres. Do what you will with it, but this is what I see. His third chakra is doing…

Finding My Own Art
Many people in my family are artistically talented. Me, I’m doing great if you can guess the sex of my stick figures. Maybe it’s this lack of talent that explains why I have been utterly charmed by any man who’s ever offered to draw me. I’ve been an amateur photographer since the fourth grade, and…

Loving Dissonance
What? Could I simply not maintain the sense of contentment that came in so warmly in late August and stayed through much of September, in spite of the issues with my dad, my ex, the pressures of my job? There was still such a wonderful sense of everything being as it should be. Serenity. Calmness.…
