As 2011 begins, I want to thank you all for all of your sweet messages, healing thoughts, and prayers. I have spent a special holiday season with my family, including the recent celebration of the bat mitzvah of my daughter Sara. I’m continuing my medical treatment and healing journey and am grateful each day for [...]

Thank you for all of the kind messages and support you have given me on my journey of healing. Recently I received very positive news that the tumor in my brain has significantly reduced in size. I continue to get stronger with each day and I have enjoyed the opportunity to meet some of you [...]

I’m really looking forward to the Free to Love course that begins this weekend. The supremely well-intentioned people who come to this program seeking freedom have set into motion the conditions that create transformation and expansion. Every impulse that expands our sense of self spontaneously expands our capacity for compassion and grace. More than ever [...]

Hi everyone, I am now two weeks out from my surgery, and by all accounts I am thriving. Happily, I am off all medications (other than my immune-boosting botanical allies) and will be beginning my more definitive treatments next week.
