A Course in Miracles, or The Course as it is also referred, is a channeled text, published in 1976, by two Professors of Medical Psychology at Columbia's University's College of Physicians and Surgeons in New York City, Helen Schulman and William Thetford. The following pages are to be a daily walk with those who are working with the 365 lessons in The Workbook section of The Course. This text is not about intellectualizing spirituality but about integrating the teachings in order to fully remember Who and What we truly are. It is about choosing love over fear and forgiveness over judgment.

The purpose of these pages is to encourage simplification of the lessons in A Course in Miracles by utilizing songs, movie clips, photographs, art, and teachings from other healing or spiritual modalities, to remind us that no matter what course, book, or ideology we endeavor to use, it is all based upon the same premise, that there is only Love.  
"Nothing real can be threatened. Nothing unreal exists. Herein lies the peace of God”

Enjoy the journey and the daily Walk in Miracles.

If Life’s A Game, Why Not Have Fun With It?

If Life’s A Game, Why Not Have Fun With It?   I recently talked with a first time mom of a 15-month-old son.  She mentioned to me how between her and her husband’s job, that it is tough to get in time to just have fun together.  As with most relationships, they have been putting “getting […]

What Do We Really Hunger For?

What Do We Really Hunger For?   The Buddha taught that the root of all suffering was craving and aversion and it is often those roots that feed our addictions in life.  We are junkies looking for the next “hit”:  the new electronic device, the cookies in the pantry, the discounts at the grocery store […]

The Fullness of the Moment

The Fullness of the Moment What to eat…  With the accessibility of the Internet and its endless supply of knowledge, in addition to the various documentaries on the subject, it can be tough to determine what is really good for you to consume.  One site or film will say that Paleo is bad, another will […]

The Substitute Teacher

The Substitute Teacher There will never be a substitute for that in which we truly hunger.  One well and one well only, the well that lies within can only quench our insatiable thirst.  But if we take a moment and become aware of our chosen substitutes, we open the door for them to become our […]

Attitude Changes Altitude

Attitude Changes Altitude There is a well-known saying that attitude changes everything.  Attitude can take you up, down, or keep you neutral but wherever it takes you, it does take you somewhere. When you were a child remember when your parents got you try a new food and just by the look of it, for […]

When Is Enough, Enough?

When Is Enough, Enough? What is enough these days?  In a world inundated with plenty, it is tough to tell.  We live in a time where grocery store shelves are over-stocked, where there is a fast-food chain on every corner, usually open for 24-hours a day, and where media outlets send us endless messages that […]

Something To Believe In

Something To Believe In If you look more closely at why you do what you do and why you want what you want, you will notice that there is a defining thread that connects the two with common outcomes in your life.  That thread is your core beliefs.  At the heart of our motives, it […]

Whatever Tomorrow Brings

Whatever Tomorrow Brings Participating in the Whole30 for 13 days, and counting, I recognize how much planning it has taken to ensure I have maintained within the program’s guidelines, especially when it comes to having an animal source protein readily available.  In recent years, I have practiced mostly a vegetarian/vegan lifestyle, making meals that plan […]

Each Day Is A Walk In Miracles

Each Day Is A Walk In Miracles How would life be if we lived as if each step was a miracle?  We would awaken to the mystery of how the clouds moved by a wind we could not see or feel, wondering if we, too, are moving in the same sort of invisible flow.  We […]

Thought Is Worse Than Action Or Outcome

Thought Is Worse Than Action Or Outcome When I received the book, Whole30, in the mail and began reading it, my mind started to entertain the question, “How am I going to do this nutritional change?”  I was mostly concerned with the fact I was going to have to include some sort of eggs, fish, […]

The Menu of Life (Menú De Vida)

Menu of Life (Menú De Vida) Life is like a buffet.  You are given a plate, the body, and then you are given a myriad of foods to try, the endless choices in life.  Today, for our subject’s sake, we are going to go at this with an international flare and in two languages, Spanish […]

The Way Out

The Way Out We all have so many hopes and dreams but why is it that so many of them go unpursued?  We have the entire world at our fingertips.  We have all the time in the world yet not a moment to lose, dancing the thin line between freedom and urgency.  We live in […]

The Heart Of Hunger

The Heart of Hunger During any nutritional change one is always drawn to the heart of hunger, the root of appetite.  As someone commits and embarks on a new diet, there are moments of clarity when one realizes her propensity to certain foods and the momentary gains from eating them.  Making any changes in our […]

Fed By Fear

Fed By Fear Sit quietly for a moment and after reading the following words, stare off into the distance and reflect on what arises for you.  What feeds you?  What absolutely nourishes your soul and leaves you well fed?  Let your mind wander from food to drinks to creative abilities to music to relationships to, […]

Fed Up

Fed Up In order for real change to take place, one must be so fed up with the old that there is no other choice but the new.  The former way of life must no longer hold us in her grips, allowing room for existence to be altered as needed.  But no matter how you […]

Well Fed

Well Fed There are many reasons for making nutritional changes:  boredom, weight loss, reflection, a much-needed rest for the digestive system, health-related issues and conditions, curiosity, spiritual or religious, or because a friend or family member is doing it alongside with you.  The reason for undertaking such an endeavor can be a generous motivator throughout […]

Self-Discipline and Self-Love

Self-Discipline and Self-Love We all have self-discipline.  In one or many areas of our lives we have a certain level of “stick-to-it-ness” and refuse to abandon our commitment at all costs.  Many have this level of self-motivation to read each day, others to meditate, some to exercise, and there are those that carry this dedication […]

What You Know To Be True

What You Know To Be True What is it that you know to be absolutely true?  Recall that an undeniable truth cannot change or have an opposite:  What is true, is true always.  Thus, for you, what falls into that category and what does not? Sincerity is a noble characteristic.  It is one we are […]

Know Your Labels

Know Your Labels Labels…we know them all too well, from food to acronyms for a job to record companies to identifying species of plants and animals.  They are out there in hot pursuit in hopes to aid in defining our life experience, striving to give it meaning and alluring us to fall prey to the […]

Read Between The Labels

Read Between The Labels The best labels are no labels but we cannot dismiss that they serve a purpose and act as waymarkers on the journey of life.  Namely, they give us a clue as to where we are in space and time, helping us to get from point A to point B.  They also […]
