Welcome to the inner-workings of my mind. A place where Thoughts, dreams, questions, answers and more questions swirl around with the fury of a cyclone and the innocence of a child. I am searching for life's answers and sharing all that inspires me in this amazing journey called "life."

faith
Faith isn't necessarily about "truth." It is something undefinable that grounds us, nourishes our souls and gives us purpose. So many people struggle with faith because they try to put it into concrete terms..."this is "this, and "that is that." Faith never needs to be explained or defined-it is blind hope. It is the spiritual glue that binds our souls. It is that unexplainable thing that gives us something to believe in. Don't try to define your faith-just believe that you belong here and are a divine spirit. When you stop trying to put your faith into tangible terms-then you shall know true faith.

Change
I have spent many years trying to undo the effects of a seemingly difficult childhood. Moving to Hollywood to become an actress only compounded all the insecurity and low self-esteem I had. What I have realized overtime is that, what I thought was once a lack of discipline on my part to consciously will myself to be more happy and centered was the greatest mistake I had been making. Let me explain: Our subconscious minds are very faithful to our conscious thoughts-yet once memories and images become embedded in that region of the brain, then it is really difficult to reprogram it with just conscious efforts. Think of the subconscious mind as the hard drive in a computer. Like the mind, a computer downloads programs that can be running in the background all the time. SO we might consciously affirm that we love ourselves and want to change, yet the moment we stop consciously telling ourselves these things, our subconscious mind goes right back to negative self-defeating thoughts.
At first blush, this might sound complicated, but it really is quite simple I assure you. We are not the sum of our DNA or genetics-we are thinking, breathing individuals who have the power to change our thoughts at any moment WE chose. This is where meditation and hypnosis become really important- in particular, deep meditation using theta waves. By getting to a deepened state of relaxation we can awaken the subconscious mind and reprogram it. It is not difficult, it just takes a willingness and a desire to change. I encourage you to make the commitment to reprogram all those self-defeating messages that are enabling you from living the life of joy you deserve. Don't allow yourself to continue to be a victim of life and family history- believe you can change what you cannot see. have the courage to soak in this possibility and then make it happen! Namaste

Compassion
The pathway to true and lasting peace begins with compassion. We are all connected to one another and that cannot be changed. To hate another is to hate ourselves, and that cycle is then perpetuated over and over- spreading like a disease across the world. Heaven is man-made as is hell. When a man kills another, he is committing an act of spiritual suicide. Humankind must first look to themselves for the process of peace to begin. Our true purpose on earth is to live in a self-created heaven, which is a reflection of the compassion we feel for ourselves and all of God's creations.

Thoughts
My thoughts come and go like the tide. Sometimes rushing in with a calm resolution-other times, with little patience.
My thoughts are the mirror of my soul-a song my heart longs to sing. Sometimes the words don't rhyme or even make sense and I am afraid the world will never hear its unique beauty.
My thoughts are me-good and bad. I embrace them as a mother embraces her child-lovingly and without judgment.
My thoughts are not always kind, but like the ocean-overtime the gentle motion softens and smooths away the roughness.
