Love is waiting.

When you read the word God, what do you picture?

A person, a place?

Maybe you're like me a few years ago who couldn't even say the word without disgust in my mouth.

For me, today, God is a personal relationship.

It's a state of being connected to everything and everyone through time and space.

Similar to how my hand is a part of me, I believe everything around us is a part of God.

It's not important if you're Christian, Muslim, Agnostic, Atheist, whatever you want to call yourself ...

what is important is your connection to the world.

Do you feel alone? bitter?

Or do you feel connected and full of love?

A relationship is a two way street. I promise that if you pour out love in all your words and actions – pour out love to the people/places/things that "deserve it" the least – you will find love in return. You might feel like the world has turned it's back on you, but it hasn't.

It's only waiting.

I've changed a lot in this last year and a half. It's only natural that as I evolve, so do my offerings to you. My blog...

Change is Coming

I'm laying on my blue couch cushions, wrapped in a long fuzzy blanket. Not that I really need it because it's a sunny 70 degrees outside here in Denver. But there's a cool cross breeze going through the open windows in our house and as anyone who knows my family knows, Scheibelhuts gets cold. As I'm bundled up here, I'm thinking back to all this past year has brought. I got my yoga teaching certification. Started teaching yoga a mere 3 weeks after that. Began my sober lifestyle. I moved into...

When there seems like little hope

Sometimes the world is a bad place. There's real heart sorrowing tragedy. Natural disasters. Life ending sicknesses. War. Shootings. Trauma. When I read the news or hear people discuss current events, it can feel scary. Like there's a real loss of safety. But I have a quick exercise for you. Right now, look around the room that you're in and notice everything that is brown. Take inventory of what each object or surface is. Go ahead take a minute and look. When you're done, read this next...
