How many secrets do we keep?
September 27, 2018. Hundreds of thousands of people tune into Dr. Ford’s testimony of her sexual assault as a 15-year-old. Tears stream down the faces of women everywhere as they listen to her present herself, composed and calmly in front of 21 U.S. Senators and the entire televised world. She’s telling her secrets, she’s telling … Read more
Don’t stop at blame
I first wrote this piece in 2013. Rereading it today, it’s even more applicable in today’s social-political climate. I reference EFT, also known as tapping, but the insights stand, regardless of which approach you use to move through your emotional and cognitive changes. The relief of self-differentiation I’ve discovered through my own process, and the … Read more
Tapping through drawing
I first learned about picture tapping from Jondi Whitis at the Spring Energy Event several years ago. I will be meeting the creators Christine Sutton and Philip Davis next year at the York Gathering and thought it time I give it a try. Drawings tell us so much I’ve done some powerful pieces of inner work based … Read more
Fishbone diagram to improve your tapping
What’s a fishbone and how can I use it? I used to do process improvement work and one of the tools for expanding thinking is the fishbone diagram, aka the cause-and-effect diagram, aka the Ishikawa Diagram. The tool is a template for brainstorming possible causes of an effect. The tool can be used in two … Read more
“My scans are clear”
This was published on EFTUniverse last year. That’s why the format is more formal than normal. And I’m delighted that Keren herself wrote the closing paragraph. My scans are clear …. When I read that email from my client Keren, I was touched deeply. I knew that we had cleared some of the issues surrounding … Read more
“I got a B!”
This fall, I had the chance to work with a delightful 11-year-old boy T. who was having some trouble with math. His parents and the school had tried a variety of ways to support him, and he had made great progress in all areas but math. The parents asked me to see what I could … Read more
Don’t charge what you’re worth
Look at most business advice on setting rates and you’ll find something along the lines of “Charge what you are worth” or, “You are not charging enough.” Many business coaches advise their clients to raise their rates. There is an assumption that if you are not getting top rates, you have a self-confidence issue or a … Read more
Listening to my children’s intuition
Am I supporting my children’s connection to their intuition, inner knowing, physical instincts, mental capacities, emotional truth, and personal authority? To me this is the basis of my parenting and what the movements of unschooling, attachment parenting, and conscious parenting are all about. It’s my definition of what Robin Grille calls the “helping mode” of … Read more

A new parenting paradigm
The history of parenting is rather brutal, with children once considered non-entities that could be discarded, killed, or used at the parent’s whim. Over time, our collective approach to parenting is evolving and developing, which is good news indeed. How we collectively parent is the leading force that shapes how we are as a country … Read more
Clearing your birth story
Our children’s birth stories carry a lot of valuable information for us. Patterns for both you and your child are set and /or reinforced during the birth process. Unfortunately, most births in the U.S. are not supportive of mothers and fathers. Parents aren’t supported and thus make decisions they regret later. Identifying and releasing this … Read more
What comes after tapping?
Imagine a continuum, a sliding scale, with fear on the left end and unconditional love on the far right. Ideally we are free to along that scale and of course, the ideal is to be moving towards love. Now imagine being tied down like Gulliver of Gulliver’s travels with hundreds of tiny but strong ropes. … Read more
