		<title>Transition to Inspiration</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I have a friend, Sandy, who creates the most amazing lampwork glass beads. Truly each one contains has that spark of great beauty such as is found in nature. For years now the bookstore, where I work part time to supplement my book addiction, has sold Sandy’s one-of-a-kind jewelry. Over and over I’ve seen a [...]]]></description>

		<title>The Power of an Idea</title>
		<description><![CDATA[“What&#8217;s the most resilient parasite? An Idea. A single idea from the human mind can build cities. An idea can transform the world and rewrite all the rules.”—Inception
Sometimes our ideas seem to get lost or mixed up inside of us. We know the kind of person we’d like to be—a thin, healthy, nonsmoking, confident, successful, [...]]]></description>

		<title>I Had a Happy Childhood. Why Do I Feel This Way?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I have a client who tells me that she had a really boring, loving and normal childhood. Her family all supported her growing up. There was no abuse. They all had enough to meet their needs and not so much as to be bothered with issues of worthiness or entitlement. So why, she wondered, did [...]]]></description>

		<title>The Stage Hypnotist</title>
		<description><![CDATA[In high school, my friend Angie’s brother was working to become a stage hypnotist. He asked her to invite a group over so he could practice. There were nine of us sitting semi-circle, hands in lap and nervous. While we were all good friends, this was high school, mind you, and so taking on the [...]]]></description>

		<title>Learning</title>
		<description><![CDATA[In the past two weeks since my granddaughter, Jager, went home, I’ve been reclaiming my busy life. While she was here, it felt really important to clear my schedule and make her the center of the universe. I enjoyed every precious moment, but a small part of me felt panicky, as though one month away [...]]]></description>

		<title>The Glasses on the Top of Your Head</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Melissa is a busy mom. She is one of those people who just get things done while the rest of us are wondering if we should even try. In the raising of six children (two still at home), she has also returned to school to earn another degree, helped with innumerable community events and projects, [...]]]></description>

		<title>Ritual</title>
		<description><![CDATA[We crave ritual. Where none exists or where long-practiced ritual has lost its meaning, we create new ones. For various reasons, I no longer attend church. Recently, I went to our local opera company’s production of Godspell. Watching the Last Supper scene reminded me of how much I miss the ritual of taking communion. I [...]]]></description>

		<title>Jager&#8217;s Angel</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
Our granddaughter, Jager, is spending some time with us right now. She is six years old. For the first few nights, bedtime proved challenging because she’d be tired, homesick and not real crazy about the idea of sleeping alone in a strange bedroom. To help the situation, I read her Susan Ekberg’s picture book, Pink [...]]]></description>

		<title>Talent</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I am not a cook. Yes, I did just spend almost two hours in the kitchen making Dilly Beans, Grandma Martin’s recipe; and I’ve never tasted a better guacamole than mine. Early in our marriage, I shared more of the cooking duties. With two young children to feed and not a lot of money, simple [...]]]></description>

		<title>Northshore in Minnesota</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Several years ago I met Kat at a writing retreat in Cloquet, MN, entitled, Mindfulness and Writing. Part of the workshop was taught by a Buddhist priest (meditation) and part taught by a mystery writer. We would sit in meditation during the morning hours, and then write all afternoon.
It was mealtimes where I heard bits [...]]]></description>
