F.E.A.R. --- False Evidence Appearing Real
Essences on Sale

Welcome to 2016! I'm excited to be at the start of another new year, a clean slate, an opening to new possibilities. I hope you share my enthusiasm for this new beginning --- so much has changed in recent years, some for the good, some not so good. By establishing a base of honor and wonder, we can, indeed, create a world that works for everyone.

I know, my Pollyanna nature is shining through, and I'm sticking with it!

Have a great year!

in peace,

Last month I introduced you to the work of Kay Snow-Davis, a book called Point of Power: A Relationship With Your Soul --- ways to find your natural rhythm using the Tree analogy of Root, Trunk, Branch, and Leaf. We'll delve deeper into POP next month.

Also, after maintaining steady prices for several years, there will be some increases starting in April. I'll keep you posted on this before the higher prices begin, so you can stock up on your favorites before then!

F.E.A.R. --- False Evidence Appearing Real

The first time I saw this phrase I was in a bookstore in Santa Cruz, California. I think it was in the early 1990's, but I don't remember exactly. I was looking at greeting cards, and there it was: False Evidence Appearing Real.

My life was disjointed at the time --- I didn't know who I was or what I was supposed to be doing, and fear was a regular visitor. So seeing those words struck me very deeply.

It's hard to believe the things you fear are not real. They seem real, certainly. And if they're not real, doesn't that mean something is wrong with you? Like you're making up things to be afraid of?

In fact, we've spent decades practicing fear. If you believe that you create your reality out of your words and thoughts, and if you express fear about everyday and extraordinary events, you are maintaining the energy of fear around yourself. Like attracts like, and fear attracts things to be afraid of. The only way to change the pattern is to alter the thoughts and ideas behind the pattern.

The best suggestion I know is to begin practicing peace --- peaceful thoughts and actions, quiet contemplation and meditation, imagining the good in the people around you rather than the bad. It's easy to fall under the influence of the media that only shows the worst of humanity and repeats it over and over as if it's the only truth. It is not.

Humans are basically good, kind and helpful. People all around the world want what's best for their friends and families. They want to feel safe and secure, take care of their homes, have satisfying work. They want to love and be loved. Each of us can "practice peace" in our own lives every day and allow our feelings and experiences to radiate out to others, spreading our inner peace and paying it forward. Today would be a good day to begin!
