A mother’s love.
We haven’t all birthed or mothered children. But we all are born of a mother.
And most of us have felt the deep love and nurturing that our mother provided. We know how she cared for us and worried about us and wanted only our safety and happiness.
We’ve known mothers who have lost children and we’ve seen how the pain never goes away. The hole in their heart cannot possibly be filled. A missing piece that can never be replaced.
Perhaps you’ve seen the heart-wrenching video on social media of a woman whose son was killed at the musical festival in Israel. When she learned that her son’s name had been painted on a missile to be used in the war she couldn’t imagine another mother suffering as she has. Instead, she is choosing love over revenge.
No mother should have to send her child to war – hoping and praying they return unharmed. For no one can go to war and, even if they do return, be untouched by what they experienced. They are forever haunted by the images. Forever changed, hardened even, by these crimes against humanity.
The past few months have crystalized the urgent need for women to come together and raise our individual and collective voice to end the perpetual pattern of war and violence which has caused so much pain and suffering over many centuries. Women are one half of humanity and yet our voices are not heard sufficiently to end this insanity.
Must we remain enslaved to this devastating pattern? No!
In this challenging, yet auspicious, time many are asking, “Where are the women?” They’re right here!
We invite you to join us for an important panel discussion entitled Women in Service to Love and Life.
You’ll meet 11 women who are whole-heartedly engaged in sacred activism so Love and Life triumph over fear, hatred, and despair.
This inspiring, hopeful, and profound conversation includes mothers and grandmothers, authors and musicians, peace activists, Indigenous wisdom keepers, and spiritual teachers. All share the Sacred Mission of ushering in the Divine Feminine and raising the consciousness of humanity to midwife a New Earth based in Peace, Love and Harmony.

The flurry and activity that is unfolding is staggering. Events from Time Square to Tokyo, Ecuador to Egypt are deep in preparations, each one of these celebrations is epic and profound in its own way. Taken together, as a whole, the orchestration is nothing less than stupendous.
Peace Week (https://peaceweek.org) is a worldwide collaboration, a celebration, a convergence with a global broadcast. Featuring deep ceremonies, multiple film premiers, book launches, extraordinary panel discussions, studio broadcasts and amazing musicians and artists from around the World, Peace Week 2023 is sure to take us to a place we’ve never been before.
And we are thrilled to be participating!
During the 99 Days of Peace, Anne Baring and I have hosted three gatherings spotlighting women-led peace initiatives through discussions with our circle leaders and participants.
Now we’re so excited to host an inspiring conversation with my dear friends and teachers from Mary Magdalene’s School in Vezelay, France, where I spent a week on retreat this past July.
In 2020, Anna Vanickova and Petra Brussen were called by Mary Magdalene and Jeshua into a channel of spiritual consciousness, which they began to discover over a period of 3-5 years through intense daily spiritual work. Guidance form the light realms opened innumerable fields of cosmic consciousness, Libraries of Light that have been inaccessible to humanity since the Fall of Consciousness. Teachings shared through this channel are living knowledge which awaken layers of soul memory through codes, resonance, remembrance and unity consciousness. They are deeply supportive to humanity as tools to anchor in the higher, New Earth Consciousness.
On Wednesday, September 20th, at 11:00 am ET, we invite you to learn more about the Consciousness of Peace. This is a far cry from the consciousness we have been living in for thousands of years. A destructive consciousness that has programmed us through fear and manipulation. But no longer.
A great healing is occurring on the planet. A healing that leads to inner and outer peace, love, and harmony. Join us to discover the tools and practices available that support the process of Awakening and Co-Creation of the New Earth.

Continue ReadingThis week I have the honor of being a hostess for the Women’s Village at the Parliament of World Religions being held in Chicago. The Women’s Village is the creative genius of my dear friend and colleague, Sande Hart, founder of S.A.R.A.H. She, along with many others, has brought this beautiful creation to life to demonstrate what happens when women converge. Hint – it’s powerful!
When Anne Baring and I decided to embark on a bold initiative to end all war and violence on the planet, we knew it would not be an easy task. But we also knew that if we gathered the women – it would be an unstoppable force for good.
What began as an attempt to try to awaken the hearts of mothers and grandmothers to put an end to this “barbarous sacrificial ritual” by saying “This Stops Now” has expanded to include all of humanity, for we need everyone to come together if we hope to succeed.
This is a movement that impacts all of us. Regardless of who you are, where you live, your race, culture, religion, politics – war and violence deeply affect you.
You have a vested interest in and an inherent right to enjoy a life that is free from suffering!
As the Divine Feminine Rises on the planet, we recognize the power in forming collaborations with others who are awakened and committed to co-creating a New Future for all.
That’s why we have scheduled a total of 4 gatherings during the 99 Days of Peace. Our first was held in June and included presentations from women leading the way toward New Earth including Anneloes Smitsman, Heather Elizabeth Neary, Teri Angel, MarBeth Dunn, Laura George, and Sheila Cash. The second gathering was held in July with offerings from Sommer Joy Ramer, Irina Morrison, and Steve Gardiner. If you missed the event here’s a link to the recording…

Last year, Anne Baring and I had a heartfelt conversation about the insanity that is escalating around the world and Anne’s belief that if the mothers of the world would just say, “No More”, we could end war forever.
Since that time, Anne felt impelled to publish her mother’s channeled messages that she began receiving in 1943 during World War II, and which continued for 25 years. They repeatedly warned of a catastrophe if humanity did not change course and if men did not desist from further interference with nature and the creation of ever more deadly weapons, including nuclear and biological weapons.
Given the dire circumstances we are facing as a species, we decided that we must act on our intuitive guidance to do something now, knowing that to end the deeply imprinted pattern of war and violence would not be an easy task.
What began as an initiative to try to awaken the hearts of mothers and grandmothers to put an end to this “barbarous sacrificial ritual” has now expanded to include all of humanity, for we need everyone to come together if we hope to succeed.
This is a movement that impacts all of us. Regardless of who you are, where you live, your race, culture, religion, politics – war and violence deeply affect you.

My dear friend and colleague, Sande Hart, and The Women’s Task Force is elevating the presence of Women and the Divine Feminine, a bold next step in the upward trajectory that has been mounting since the Inaugural Women’s Assembly and first women’s programming track in 2015. With 61% of the 7-10,000 attendees being women it’s time!
This year’s theme is Women’s Dignity. Here’s more about the Women’s Village…
https://www.sarah4hope.org/copy-of-sponsor-the-women-s-village
Carefully designed to support the way women create and converge, women are invited to enter the Village and be activated and inspired to deepen their commitment to protect and preserve human rights and dignity for women, for all.
Women’s Sacred Space is a welcoming, safe, and inclusive sanctuary for women of all faiths to pray, meditate, reflect, recline, conduct ceremony, spiritual practice and ritual, to move as women move, and to bless one another. Women are invited to contribute items of their faith tradition, nature, and water to any of the altars in the space.
Sande is the founder and president of the The Spiritual and Religious Alliance for Hope (SARAH), a Partner of this initiative, and they are inviting Sponsorships to help build the Village as this is not coming out of the Parliament’s budget. It’s up to us to build this Village together with our Sister/Brothers/Family organizations.

Urgent Call to Mothers and Grandmothers
I met Anne Baring about a year ago when Sheila Cash and I co-hosted our Creatrix Convergence on-line summit. Anne... Continue ReadingI met Anne Baring about a year ago when Sheila Cash and I co-hosted our Creatrix Convergence on-line summit. Anne was one of an amazing line-up of women. As we were preparing for her interview, Anne and I had a number of conversations around topics about which we both felt passionately.
This past March, I picked up Anne’s book, The Dream of the Cosmos, and began reading where I had left off – chapter 13 (note that 13 is the number of the Goddess) – titled “War as a Rape of the Soul”.
If you’ve read any of Anne’s books, you know how compelling they are – and I was drawn in by her description of the addiction to war on the planet, the military industrial complex, and the urgent need to address the insanity.
Reading these chapters reminded me of a conversation Anne and I had. She shared that it is her belief that if the mothers of the world would just say “no more” to war – we could end it once and for all. I was so moved by the thought of this actually happening that I reached out to her to inquire as to whether she was aware of any such attempts being made.
Anne responded right away. She told me she thinks about this night and day because she believes it is the only way to break the compulsion to endlessly repeat the pattern of war. But to do so women and men would have to challenge their unconscious obedience to the call of war. She also told me about her mother’s channeled messages that she was in the process of publishing which warn of the dangers of war, and she noted the synchronistic timing of my inquiry.
We agreed that it is time to embark on an initiative to try to awaken the hearts of women to put an end to this “barbarous sacrificial ritual” as she calls it. And it must be shared with as many women as possible. So together, with Dr. Scilla Elworthy, we drafted the “Urgent Call to Mothers and Grandmothers”, which I’ll share in an upcoming email.
It was only later that I realized I had reached out to Anne on March 19th – Mother’s Day in the UK – where she resides. This was the first in a series of synchronicities that have assured us we are being guided to initiate this movement at this time.
As I think about my experience of war and that of most of my peers – we know very little of the horrors. Other than what we see on our news threads – the realities seem very far away. Yet it occurs to me that in truth the war isn’t just happening in Ukraine, or Sudan, or the Middle East.
We’ve all been indoctrinated into a culture of violence that seeps in through our phones, computers, and TV’s. Our children ingest it to the point of becoming de-sensitized through endless hours spent staring at a screen or playing video games. It is in our schools, our workplaces, and our communities. And because the ramifications are so devastating – we either ignore them – or numb ourselves by overeating, drinking alcohol, shopping, or watching Netflix.
The war I’m referring to is the war for the hearts and minds of our children and grandchildren. The war for our very souls.
It’s a war that is intensifying through increased violence in our cities, censorship in media, unchecked development of technology; in the breakdown of the foundational systems that used to provide us security including education, healthcare, government, and religion; and in the degradation of the ground we walk on, the air we breathe, the food and water we consume – not to mention all non-human forms of life – and our precious Mother Gaia.
I was recently on a Zoom call with a dear Soul Sister whose son is graduating from high school. She was telling me about the montage she was creating including photos of his upbringing. She was saddened as she noticed that the joyful smiles of his youth were replaced by a more somber countenance as he moved into his teen years. She said she felt like she had given him away to the world. Can you relate to this?
I do! Having raised two boys, who are now in their twenties, I lived the challenges of attempting to raise decent human beings in a world that seems determined to ensure it doesn’t happen. And both she and I had the time and resources to dedicate to parenting. Imagine how many parents around the globe struggle just to survive, much less provide the support and guidance their children need to thrive.
As proof that we are not imagining the consequences, the U.S. Surgeon General, Dr. Vivek H. Murthy, released an advisory this past week warning of the impacts of social media on young people saying…”Nearly every teenager in America uses social media, and yet, we do not have enough evidence to conclude that it is sufficiently safe for them, especially at such a vulnerable stage of brain, emotional, and social development. Much of the evidence we do have indicates that there is enough reason to be deeply concerned about the risk of harm social media poses.” Murthy added that “children have become unknowing participants in a decades-long experiment.”
Unknown participants in a decades-long experiment! Our children are guinea pigs!!
So why have we allowed this to happen? Why have we given over our parenting responsibilities to individuals who seem hell bent on doing everything they can to subvert our role and indoctrinate our children into a culture that has little to no understanding of the Sacredness of life? Why is the culture of violence and war still so prevalent?
“If there ever comes a time when the women of the world come together purely and simply for the benefit of mankind, it will be a force such as the world has never known.” – Matthew Arnold

Healthy, Whole & Holy

Now I am quite certain that when I share this – many amongst you will say, “Duh!” – particularly those of you who are trained in the healing arts.
But I hope that what I’m about to reveal is new to some and provides an eye-opening perspective that guides you on your own journeys. Here it is….drumroll please…
The Journey to Health and Wholeness is the same as the Journey to Higher Consciousness
Yep! That’s what I’ve finally discovered. The steps I needed to take to return to health and wholeness would also lead to higher consciousness and vice versa.
Let’s dive into this. The path to health and wholeness invites us to focus on four pillars: physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual. The path to higher consciousness or mastery focuses on the same four pillars.
Physical:
To be healthy we are encouraged to eat right, take supplements, get plenty of rest and restorative sleep, and exercise.
On the spiritual path we are invited to view our Body as Temple and, therefore, treat it with respect and love.
To support these two paths, we might find a practitioner trained in Nutritional Response Testing to ensure that we’re eating foods and taking supplements that are good for our specific body type. We might adopt an Ayurvedic lifestyle or learn more about Chinese medicine. Perhaps we spend more time in nature, get a massage, or begin practicing Yoga or Qigong. All are acts of self-love that enhance our physical health.
Emotional:
We now know that one of the primary causes of dis-ease is trapped emotions. Early in life as we’re attempting to acclimate to life on the planet, we receive messages from just about everyone as to what is acceptable behavior. Which emotions are okay to share openly, and which ones need to be suppressed. And so, wanting to fit in and be loved and accepted, we learn to bury the less accepted emotions of anger, rage, guilt, shame, fear, grief, and more. And it’s the suppression of these emotions that can eventually lead to illness. So to get and stay healthy, we must find a way to identify, process, and release all trapped emotions.
On the path to higher consciousness, this awareness of emotions focuses on the energy around the emotions. It is in our best interest to process and release the lower frequency emotions so that we may enjoy the higher frequency emotions of love, compassion, joy, kindness, peace, abundance, and so forth. Staying in these higher frequencies more often gives us access to the higher realms which supports our ascension process allowing us to transmute fear to love, scarcity to abundance, dis-ease to health and wholeness.
Since many of these suppressed emotions reside in our subconscious, it can be beneficial to seek support from a practitioner who can help us access these trapped emotions. Modalities I have found to be effective are the Emotion Code, Neuro Emotional Technique (NET), and Emotional Freedom Technique (tapping).
Mental:
So, we’re doing the physical work and processing emotions, but something keeps holding us back from healing. Something keeps holding us back from achieving our goals. And that something is quite possibly the story we tell ourselves. A story that has been written over a lifetime by other people. What we can and can’t do. What we’re capable of or limited by. What’s acceptable to our family or will get us booted out of the tribe. And we can be so unaware of these stories – these thoughts – these beliefs – that they are powerful enough to sabotage us over and over again. Our monkey mind never lets up.
In the case of our health, we might believe that we can’t possibly heal ourselves. We have to seek out a doctor or other healthcare professional, and even then we might not believe we can heal. That we just have to live with this chronic illness, or pain, or disease passed along to us through our genes that we have no control over.
“The human brain is a powerful pharmacy that responds to the prescriptions written by our thoughts.” – Mark Mincolla, Ph. D.
On the spiritual path, we may think it’s sacrilege to believe we are human and Divine. We could never be that magnificent. Never be that powerful. What would people think? It’s so much safer to live in our old story, our predictable patterns, our limiting beliefs.
Until one day we wake up and decide we just won’t live there anymore. We discover that practicing mindfulness, reciting daily affirmations, catching ourselves in a limiting thought and flipping the switch to one that is more empowering – opens us up to a whole new way of be-ing. One that leads to not only a healthier life but to a richer one as we connect with the field of infinite possibilities and newfound freedom. We become masters of our minds.
Spiritual:
Lo and behold, on our path to health and wholeness we have uncovered some truths about ourselves. We have learned that we are not just our body, not just our emotions, not just our thoughts. We are all this and more.
We are energetic beings – Spirit in human form. So, how does our connection to Source or our relationship with our Soul contribute to health or dis-ease?
Many healers believe that separation from Spirit is at the root of all dis-ease. So, our spiritual practices are integral to our healing journey. Time spent in nature, prayer, meditation, journaling, and more, all lead us home to the Source of our Be-ing. Our True Essence – our AWE-thentic Self!
Not only are we meant to be vibrantly healthy – we are meant to be wholly and joyfully who we are. We are meant to express the fullness of our being and share our gifts with the world.
We are meant to be to be Radically Alive and Fully Engaged!
Abundance of Life Force Energy = Vitality
So here’s the thing – I’m not saying this journey is easy. It takes tremendous discipline, devotion, and courage to attain Mastery. But the rewards are countless.
We are the embodiment of our Life Force Energy and when we embrace this Truth we restore Harmony and Balance to our Body, Heart, Mind, and Soul.
Healthy, Whole, and Holy is who you are and why you’re here. It’s your birthright. Claim it!
Be bold. Be Daring. Be AWE-dacious!
