Did you know that there’s a wild plant that is so effective that many healers carry its root and dried leaves around with them? It looks like the carrot plant, with its tall stems and big white umbrels. But the root is way more powerful than the carrot’s. It’s anti-bacterial, anti-viral, and anti-inflammatory. It helps […]

CAN EVENING PRIMROSE REALLY HELP with HAI...
One of my friends is experiencing hair loss, so I was doofing around tonight in my herbal remedy book, and came across the following info on Evening Primrose. Which, besides being a really pretty plant, has a gajillion uses – from helping with arthritis to psoriasis, inflammation and menopause! I hope it helps you in […]
FEATHERY FENNEL
I have always liked the feathery leaves of fennel. I’ve painted it a few times, and was never really satisfied with the results. But drawing it this way gives me a look I really like. I think this image would be great to add to a quilt. I wonder if there are people who make […]
BITTEN BY A SPIDER. OR NOT.
Instead of coming to the surface and breaking out, the itchy-burny-hurty toxins spread out into the rest of my instep and into my head…. A month ago, I was bitten by a spider. Or something. I don’t know, because I never even saw the thing – I was sleeping. It got me seven times – […]
EYE LIGHTS
I have this weird thing that happens if I’m looking straight ahead, and there is a shiny thing on either side of me – the shiny thing makes light rays that go out and catch me – kind of like strings that pull my attention. Hard to put into a drawing – this is as […]
RAMEN YOGA
When I first moved to Hawaii in 1966, I was introduced to a local oriental dish called Saimin. It was a rich chickeny or maybe fishy broth, with thin slices of roast pork, chopped green onions, long, skinny, squiggly, tangled rice noodles, and seasonings rich with ginger and other spices I didn’t know of at […]
CRUNCHY YOGA & AUDIO BOOKS!
Recently I’ve been creating a 1-2-3 systems webinar for teaching authors how to make their own audio books. Why audio books, you ask? Because although it’s easy to publish kindle books on amazon, you can get your audio books onto 47 other platforms! Imagine you have one book, and you put it for sale on […]
UPWARD DAWG
I loved Downward Dawg that I designed yesterday, that I figured I should-oughta make Upward Dawg, too. This one’s one of my favorite poses – I have a funky congenital glitch at the base of my spine that makes this position really difficult – so of course I enjoy it, right? Snort! When I come […]
DOWNWARD DAWG
I remember the very first time I ever saw anyone doing yoga. I was 21. My then-hubby bought a huge how-to book that had big in-your-face photos of the yoga guru posing in all these wild contortions. I was aghast! I’m supposed to twist my body into that shape? Nope. Won’t. I did do the […]

SYLVESTER: Hiss
Lately I’ve been really struggling with sleep imbalance. It’s so strange – I can sleep 2 or 3 hours, but then my legs get all jumpy and I have to get up. Then within an hour or three, my eyes slump shut and I’m sleepy all over again and have to get horizontal before I […]
RED SINGS the BLUES
In an argument with my son a few days before I left Hawaii to live in California at the end of 2018, he asked me if I had ever had myself checked for mental illness. I was so shaken by the question I had no cogent reply. Looking back on my life, however, I can […]
Want to Release Extra Weight?
If I gave you an expandable bag to carry, and added one ounce to it every day, within a couple years you’d be carrying around a 100+ pound bag. Certainly not with ease, but you’d be able to carry it. That’s what happens when you gain weight over time. You are able to carry it […]
Do You Know How to Get Rid of Fear of Sur...
A friend of mine was about to go in for gall bladder removal. She was afraid, and asked me what to do before the procedure to help get over her fears and to heal well and rapidly. This is the list I made for her. TAP! 1. Start tapping two nights (or more, if you […]
3-Level Tapping for Zero Pain
Tonight on facebook, I saw no less than five posts written by people who were experiencing various types and levels of pain. When I asked them if they knew how to tap, not one did. Every time I see that, I want to scream and yell and cry! Tapping makes pain ease or even completely […]
The Pleiadian Protocol to Reduce Excess B...
Have you ever had a long spell of feeling really great, and then, completely out of the blue, one day you wake up almost in panic, or extreme distress? That’s what happened to me last week, with a very deeply felt personal worry. Even tapping only went so far to get me any relief. Just […]
No More Living Life Like a Zombie!
How do you go about announcing that you feel like you’re coming back from the land of the almost-dead? Well. Maybe that says it! See, five years ago, I had two near-fatal internal organ failures. I got into surgery by the skin of my teeth, and somehow I am still here today to be grateful […]
Save the Bees!
I‘m surprising myself more and more lately – I never used to be as vocal as I am now, speaking up for things I really care about. I guess I have finally shed the last of my childhood terror of speaking up. I’ve discovered that there are some really great online organizations that help causes, […]

How I dropped 44 Pounds & Got My Clear Mi
NO MORE FOG-HEAD, MEMORY LOSS…OR COMFORT-EATING! Two of the worst problems I experienced before I dropped almost 45 pounds in the last 6 months were a feeling of fog-head every morning that got better by noon, but didn’t really ever clear up, leaving me feeling like a major part of my life was vague and […]
Sun, Sand & Sculpture!
Every once in a while you just gotta stop and not just smell the roses (gardenia, jasmine…) but go down to the beach and have a romp! My friend, Financial Advisor Jobie Summer (who specializes in advising other financial advisors in Socially Responsible Investing) and I went down to Kailua Beach the other day and […]
Why Does Tapping Work?
Time and time again, people ask me why tapping works. I found a great article by an acupuncturist here in Hawaii in a local health magazine that gives a good idea why. I have included excerpts of it here. As you probably know, when we tap we use acupuncture meridians, so just imagine she’s talking […]
