International Women’s Day

March 8, 2019March 8, 2019 ~ Distillations.blog ~ Leave a comment

An interesting thing happened today. I was at the gym and a trainer commented to me on how people really need two mirrors. She said it was "amazing how many women were walking around in clothes they shouldn't be wearing. Didn't they realize how they looked?" I said to her that maybe they did [realize … Continue reading International Women’s Day

Still, small voice

February 23, 2019February 23, 2019 ~ Distillations.blog ~ 2 Comments

Holy Spirit, intuition, your gut. Whatever your definition is, I learned again this week, that I have got to pay more attention to that small, still voice. I learned this when I was 20. It was pouring with rain and I was due at a temp job on the north shore. As I was stepping … Continue reading Still, small voice

If I hope that I will have a good life, that I will be healthy, that I will get the job, that everything will turn out ok.  Hope seems like a good thing. To be hopeful - a positive way of being. But is it? If my hope is grounded in those hoped outcomes, what … Continue reading Hope in

The act[ion] of reasoning

In that stillness, there is guidance, there … Continue reading The act[ion] of reasoning

"Thank God, you're here!" You say this to the person or people who are there when you need them the most. But what about this ...? "God, you're here!" Joyce Meyer shared this statement in this short video about fear and it grabbed my attention. So I said it to myself and was overcome with … Continue reading “Thank God, you’re here!”

Stop it!

Have you watched this Bob Newhart video titled “Stop it'? http://youtu.be/Ow0lr63y4Mw Peace I leave with you; My [own] peace I now give and bequeath to you. Not as the world gives do I give to you.

The rubber-glove facial

July 16, 2016 ~ Distillations.blog ~ 1 Comment

  I've just had a very odd facial by a therapist who wore rubbers gloves. I didn't come away feeling as relaxed as I would like. Mostly I spent the time thinking that I was a bit icky to touch. I understand why she felt like that. I have a cold sore on my top … Continue reading The rubber-glove facial
