What to Do About the Low-Vibe Peeps in Your Life
We all have them. No matter what vibration we’re normally groovin’ on, we all have people in our lives who are groovin’ – or not really groovin’ at all – on a much lower vibe. We also may be fortunate enough to have people in our lives who are groovin’ on a way higher...
Can We Ever Heal Our Childhood Wounds?
Here’s how you can use spiritual practice as a support in healing childhood trauma.
Who’s in Charge of Your Life? Your Self or Your Elf?
A while back, I wrote a post about the elf self. The elf self is a kinder, gentler name for the ego. It’s the part of us that’s cut off from our Higher Self. Or thinks it’s cut off from our Higher Self. Self – S(pirit) = elf. Get it?! Viewing the ego as an elf is...

How Do I Handle My Fire Trauma?
Dear Meli, I know that you live in Sonoma County, so I'm curious to hear your take on this. I was evacuated from my home during the wildfires in Santa Rosa. I was out of my house for about a week, but after that I was able to return home. Not everyone was so lucky. I...
What to Do About the Drunk Guy in Your Head
We all have him. You may not always hear him, but he’s there. Spouting loud, obnoxious stuff. Blatant lies. Cruel insults. Most people call it the ego, but lately I’ve come to see this aspect of myself as a loud, sloppy drunk dude. Yes, it’s a dude. There are...
Is Getting Sick a Failure?
Dear Meli, It seems like people who are into consciousness sometimes make getting sick a failure. What's your take on this? I have an illness that I have been living with for years now. Even though I still wish I didn't have it, I have learned to adapt and find ways...
In Defense of Kumbaya
It's not like we're going to just hold hands and start singing Kumbaya. How many times have you heard a phrase like this, particularly when someone is advocating for a non-superficial approach to problem solving? And yes, I understand this reaction. We definitely...
Why Do Siblings Have Such Different Childhoods?
Dear Meli, Why do siblings who grew up in the same family have such different memories of their childhood? This might not sound like a spiritual question, but my sister and I, who are very close in age, have very different memories of our childhood, and this has...
