"Your internal condition, always and forevermore, is most important of all, for a peaceful and faithful heart creates a more peaceful and graceful life, and therefore a more peaceful and grace-filled world."This quote comes from my friend Ann Alber's newsletter. I really loved it when I read it and wanted to share it with you. Check out Ann's newsletter to read the whole thing: http://

I can't help feeling that this blog, which is so near and dear to my heart, is becoming a bit of a dinosaur in the age of Facebook and Twitter. Don't get me wrong, I still love it and cherish it as a way to stay connected, as well as a place to write my inspirations, but the energy feels different.Feeling energy is a great way to ride the wave of life instead of swimming upstream. We can feel

The other day when I was walking Mucci, the most beautiful thing happened.. A tree released about 100 leaves just as we walked underneath it! Orange and yellow leaves fell on our heads as the tree swayed back and forth in the wind. I felt so honored to witness this magical moment. Only in Arizona would a tree perform such a beautiful display of fall in the middle of winter!

The holidays have once again come and gone and I must say I'm ready for the new year to start. Not only because the energy of 2010 is bursting with positive vibes, but because the holidays took a lot out of me this year in terms of time and energy. Don't get me wrong, there's nothing more magical than the excitement of a child (anna:) on Christmas morning.I'm hearing and feeling that 2010 is

If you visit this blog regularly, you probably rely on your intuition to help you navigate through life. Whenever you have a problem, you most likely look inside yourself for the answer. If you're like me, sometimes the answer pops up instantly, and other times you remain "in the dark" until you receive clarity.Here's something to remember: The solution never exists at the same level as the

Today is the Winter Solstice -the shortest day of the year. Three days from midnight tonight we celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ and the renewed light in all of us.It's interesting that the light emerges three days after the darkest day of the year. It is typical to have a funeral three days after someone dies, and of course there are three days between the crucifixion and resurrection of

With the holidays upon us, I want to wish you a Merry Christmas and Happy Holiday season from Anna and I. My grown up Christmas wish (stolen from my fav xmas song) is that we choose peace in every moment and let the stress rest!

So many of us struggle with anxiety. We may even develop anxiety disorders such as OCD or chronic panic attacks. Anxiety in general seems to be on the rise and I have to say that I'm not surprised. We move so fast, take little or no time for reflection, over-consume and constantly distract ourselves with technology, electronic devices and toys that are inherently ungrounding.Anxiety is the

Last night I watched a movie about survival. I'm not going to say which one in case some of you haven't seen it yet. Suffice to say that the conditions were horrific and there was very little hope of rescue.As fate would have it, the tide brought in an object that made it possible for him to get rescued. After the ordeal was over, he returned to find that everything that kept him alive was gone,

C - Celebrate what is. R - Receive guidance from within.E - Elevate above negativity.A - Act on intuitive guidance.T - Timing. Honor divine timing.E - Emulate success to inspire others.I received this acronym from my guides as I was journaling the other day. It is powerful.

I was recently asked how inner peace specifically translates to world peace. The long answer can be found in Portals of Peace, but here's the short version:)Infectious Energy - We know that energy is contagious. This has now been measured. People will entrain with the strongest energy field in the room, and higher vibrations are more contagious than their lower counterparts. I like to think of

I'm just now rebounding from my talk last week. I notice that these events really do a number on my energy. It always takes a few days of doing nothing to refuel and get life flowing again.That said, it was an amazing honor to speak at the AZ Department of Peace.

I am thrilled to announce a new center that I am opening with my partner (and sister:) Michelle O'Neill. It is called The Center for Renewal. It's purpose is to provide a supportive environment in which people can come and fast for 24 hours.As many of you know I am a big proponent of fasting. I do one-day fasts regularly and I can say without a doubt that these purification days save me. They

I've noticed that even though the word "projection" is thrown around freely along with some of Freud's other classic defense mechanisms, such as "denial," it seems to still be widely misunderstood.Understanding projection has been central to my own healing and also in my work with others. If we all understood this slick form of avoidance the world would be much more straightforward and drama free

I remember learning in school that at a certain point in life you become interested in giving back, in serving your community, in being part of something bigger than yourself. Well, I must be getting old because that time has come for me;)I'm excited to be connected with a couple of organizations that are reaching out and collaborating with others in order to make the world a better place:

My favorite word for Spirit or God is Life. I use life because it feels natural and universal, and to me it is the animating substance that flows through all living things.However, when I think of communicating with the life within me it becomes a more personal matter. It then becomes my Inner Voice or the Voice of God or Spirit or intuition.Communicating with spirit has become a huge part of my

Friday before leaving for The Flagstaff Yoga Festival I spoke to a client over the phone. The last thing she said was, "Have fun at the Festival this weekend and don't forget to milk the moment!" That was the first time I'd heard anyone say "Milk the Moment" and it really stuck. What a perfect way to describe being fully present! This was my mantra all weekend and it turned out to be a collection

Hey All! I will be doing a Portals of Peace book signing and talk at the Flagstaff Yoga Festival this weekend - August 8 & 9th.It's going to be a very cool event, both in terms of content and weather:) The marketplace is free and open to the public.

I'm experiencing an unfolding awareness about the nature of abundance that I'd like to share.I understand the intellectual principles of abundance, but I'm not sure that I've integrated them the way I have some of the other spiritual truths. For me, none of this stuff is real until I feel it in my cells. Earlier this week I had a glimpse of "experiential abundance." I felt and realized that there

If I were to write a book on the art of being human it would have to be centered around walking the fine line between consumption and expression. Some of you may be chuckling, "You've already written that book Kim - three times actually!" Well, Sunday morning I kept hearing the intuitive message, "write about when less becomes more." So in Lieu of writing another book on the topic, I thought I'd

Today I watched part of the tribute to Michael Jackson. At one point, Rev. Al Sharpton told Michael's three kids, "Your dad was not strange, it was strange what he had to deal with."It was a beautiful and compassionate thing to say, and I doubt those kids will ever forget it. The whole thing just about broke my heart. But what hurts me most is how badly Michael was bullied when he was alive.

Do you ever feel hungry for God? This morning as I sat down to meditate, I heard myself say, "I'm hungry for God." I actually felt the cravings associated with hunger - spiritual hunger that is. Once I became clear of what was happening, I became still and invited God into my cells. This approach really works for me. It is as if I give the invitation and then open up to receive. What I'm
