Watch out for whiplash when you see the cover of Secrets from Chuckling Goat: How a Herd of Goats Saved My Family and Started a Business that Became a Natural Health Phenomenon. You know immediately that this book demands further attention!
Crafted from her diary entries, Shann Nix Jones shares an incredible story of how love, hope, and guts combine powerfully to create a life of miracles. Her big-city background and 180-degree turn resulting in transplanting to Wales serve as background for her further adventures with raising goats, creating a business, and saving her husband’s life. Packaged here with skin care products and probiotics, deep gifts of life and love abound.
This book is not to be missed–for those living in cities, on self-sustaining farms, and for all homestyles in between. The message of showing up for your life and allowing for miracles to unfold is universal.
I received this book from NetGalley in exchange for my honest opinion of it. I have now been bestowed by them the honor of Professional Reader. 😉
Your Quantum Breakthrough Code
Posted on April 12, 2015 Leave a Comment
This book by Sandra Anne Taylor is an activity guide to shifting your energy in order to consciously create your life.
We all have reactive patterns to life’s moments, whether conscious or unconscious, and it is through these patterns that we determine our reality. Think Law of Attraction, affirmations, and positive thinking.
The uniqueness of the Quantum Breakthrough Code is the use of energy meridians to decode old reactions and code new ones. Using specific, no-fail finger/forehead/eye positions together with goof-proof personal proclamations, you change your old ways of reacting to thoughts and situations into new ones that you desire instead. Even if you already like your current reactions, using this technique will help you choose them consciously in a wider set of circumstances.
I found this technique to be incredibly helpful in conjunction with the Law of Attraction and use of affirmations. Since the important factor in LOA is the feeling, using the Quantum Breakthrough Code technique is an enhancement: it is a physical and energetic process designed to alter how you feel. It is a hugely complementary step: it’s action can take that helps you get to the feeling that you want in order to create your life.
I invite you to add the Quantum Breakthrough Code to your life. Either your current spiritual practice will be magnified, or you’re off to a superb start to one. Our life currency comes with a satisfaction-guarantee that we get out of it what energy we put into it: will you look for a refund or will you see your bonus check? 🙂

Jim Wolfe’s book Level Up: Your Guide to Authentic Confidence and Internal Bliss
is a fantastic addition (or start!) to anyone’s library of personal growth reading. Written as a result of his own learning along his personal journey so far, this book is both a practical as well as theoretical guide. Serving as a model and a mentor, this book inspires and supports readers along their own individual paths of self-awareness. With a logical progression, useful references, and helpful exercises, readers will learn to live from the inside out.
Anyone interested in self-awareness, personal transformation, or authentic living will appreciate this book. Those interested in learning from another’s experiences, or in absorbing the positive effects of a shared success story from a “regular” person like ourselves, will identify and should not miss this book.
This book was gifted to me in exchange only for my honest opinion of it. I am grateful for the opportunity to read this particular book!
Spreading JOMO
Posted on March 25, 2015 7 Comments
By now you’ve probably heard of FOMO, or the Fear Of Missing Out. Yep, it appears we have successfully made our junior-high insecurities into a celebrated phenomenon. Personally, I’m not okay with carrying my adolescent anxieties into my midlife evolution and beyond.
Recently I learned of JOMO, or the Joy Of Missing Out. This too is becoming a cultural sensation, but this one validates. It’s a repurposed Just Say No–a transformed teenage-era catch phrase that still resonates with my ripening self.
Either fear-based or grounded in peace. We get to choose, and thus create our lives. Either way.
Co-creating at Its Best
Posted on March 23, 2015 Leave a Comment
Co-creating at Its Best is an enlightening and inspiring conversation between spiritual powerhouses Wayne Dyer and Abraham (as channeled by Esther Hicks).
A transcript from a 2013 live Hay House event, this book is a natural conversation with a cadence that is highly engaging and easy to read. Chapters are organized by Wayne’s free-flowing question topics as they arise, and Abraham’s resolute responses provide a gentle and strong theme throughout. I am appreciative of Wayne’s student perspective, Abraham’s teaching standpoint, and am receptive to the wisdom gleaned from both.
If you simply can’t get enough of Wayne Dyer, Abraham/Esther, or both, you must add this to your reading list–immediately. If you are at all familiar with either, you will absolutely enjoy reading along with their exchanges. And, if this is your first encounter with either teacher, this book will be a fantastic introduction for you. A quick must-read, for every situation.
There is great humor, insight, and love for you here.
