A Close Encounter of the Wildlife Kind
This morning as I was out on my first walk of the day I saw large white wings disappear into the leaves of the upper branches of a tree.

Tools for Defeating Fear: Grounding
Grounding is an important tool for spiritual protection and defeating fear. Grounding reconnects us to the energy system of the earh.
