Dear Meli
What’s the Connection Between Politics and Law of Attraction?
Dear Meli, I have been a follower of spiritual teachings for about a decade, particularly the Law of Attraction. Most of the people I have met who are interested in this kind of teaching are on the liberal end of the political spectrum. I have to say that this...
Can You Surrender Without Giving Up?
Dear Meli, A word I hear a lot in spiritual circles is "surrender," especially in relation to surrendering to a Higher Power. I have a hard time with this concept. "Surrender," to me, sounds to me giving up. What is your experience with this? Suspicious of Surrender...
Can You Be a Godparent and Not Talk About God?
Dear Meli, I am the godmother of my sister's children. I was incredibly honored to be asked, and I love my two nephews. There's only one problem. My sister doesn't believe in God. She and her husband did the baptism in a church to satisfy his parents. They never talk...
How Do You Find Space in a Hectic Life?
Dear Meli, My life is awesome! In fact, I'm living the life of my dreams. But lately there's been a little too much awesome. There's so much great stuff in my life, but I'm having a hard time fitting everything in. There are all these great projects I'm working on,...
What’s Missing in Modern Spirituality?
Dear Meli, I have been attending a spiritual center for about two years. I love going there and I love the people. I also love what I have learned about spirituality. It's very different from my childhood, when God was a mean old guy who lived in the sky. There's only...

Dear Meli, I've been getting headaches recently and I wasn't sure why. My doctor suggested an eye exam and Voila! They say I need glasses. Here's my problem with this. I've been told by my spiritual teacher that I can heal any physical malady with my mind. And I...
How Do You Handle Your Dream Not Coming True?
Dear Meli, I'm a visual artist, and I've been working hard creating my art for over two decades so far. I love what I do, but there's one thing that keeps getting me down. I have a really big vision for my art. I see it touching people all over the world. I've had...
Can You Learn to Love Your Body?
Dear Meli, I know I am supposed to love myself, warts and all. And I am better at this than I have ever been. I continue to get better all the time, in fact. I practice being nicer to me, and I get better at it. But I have this one area that feels impossible for me,...
Are You Supposed to Heal Every Illness?
Dear Meli, I have a friend who is dying. He's been sick for a long time, so it's actually a relief. But here's the thing. One of our mutual friends is not accepting that he's going. She's insisting that we need to pray more about it. Lately, she's been getting really...
How Do You Handle a Micro-Manager?
Dear Meli, I have been working in the same office for over twelve years. My boss has been bothering me for just about that long! She is really controlling - pretty much the essence of a micro manager. Just when I think that things are getting better, she clamps down...
Is There Room for Ego in Spiritual Practice?
Dear Meli, I'm currently in a spiritual community where they talk a lot about the ego. Mostly, they talk about how bad it is. I've also started reading things about the Law of Attraction, where it talks about the power of thought in attracting what you want into your...

Dear Meli, My life is really good. I have a great partner. I have a job I like. I have a great relationship with my grown kids. I have a wonderful spiritual community. There's only one part of my life that isn't totally great. And that's my relationship with money....
