Let's face it..... sometimes you get tired - especially if you're no longer thirty-something, or forty-something or over fifty. As a sixty-two year old woman I have learned, the hard way, that the key to aging gracefully is surrender. Surrender is not about giving up. Surrender is actually about giving into the power and glory that you are! What if [...]
What's the most life changing thing you've done in the last ten years? In the process of making that shift, was there a moment when you balked? Perhaps you said "I'll never pull this off," or thought, "My partner will leave me if I really go through with this." Or, before you even committed, did you respond as some do [...]
In the Wellness Sexuality Practice you put all your attention on sensation. Not just any sensation, but the sensation you feel in one very specific spot. For the stroker, it’s the tip of your left index finger. For the strokee, it’s the place in the genitals where you’re being stroked.

What do you desire? Do you even know? Can you sense what desire feels like in your body, in your relationships, and in your life? Do you long to make a contribution that touches other people's lives?

This week's special bonus – a recording of my presentation for the Thrive at Any Age Telesummit. This ten day event was hosted in June by Maureen Mongrain, a brilliant visionary dedicated to helping people thrive at any age.

Sweat streams in rivulets along my arms and drips onto my yoga mat. Hair sticks to my eyelids, but I don’t brush it away because I’m committed to holding the pose. I bend my front knee deeper while I straighten my back one. I extend my arms several inches more in either direction. My body feels like it’s being stretched [...]
Salsa dancers How long has it been since you and your partner went out on a date or did something really fun? Sometimes the down side of creating a wonderful life together is that you’re so busy managing it that you don’t have time to enjoy it.
