Good now. Happy this moment. Maybe it’s the time to love you as you are and others as they are. Expectations fuel judgment. Love with an open heart. It gives the space for healing to occur. It’s not always easy to watch someone struggle, but......

Good Now. Happy this Moment. I was nudged by my inner wisdom. My intuition told me that I needed to leave the hospital where I had been visiting my Mom at 6 pm, earlier than I had the last few nights. I pay attention to......

Good now. Happy this moment. I don’t care who you are. Each one of us has had a bad day, a difficult situation, a health problem, a relationship or money issue. How we work through it is as individual and unique as each of us......

Good Now. Happy This Moment. I sat on the ground, my head buried in my knees, lost in sorrow’s grip. Then the bird sang. The sun rose. The shadows faded and my heart smiled. Nature is a reminder that life is interactive. I can sit......

Good now. Happy this Moment. I’ve heard from a few of my friends that their loved one passed away. Death is always such a shock to the body, but in spirit it is an agreement between the soul and their God. As much as we......

Good now. It’s a difficult thing to believe others “get us” when they don’t or can’t or choose not to. The more important thing is that we get ourselves and love regardless of the desire for connection, tribes, friends and lovers. Trying to fit in......

Good now. Happy this moment. In the middle of shining your light brightly you may find that it has a light and dark effect on others. For some, it sparks their own inner light to match and bump up to a high beam. Others may......

Resilience Becomes You. You, my friend, are more than the punishing pain, the belittling and bashing, the bruises, the doubt and disappointment, the searing of scars and hurt to the heart. You never gave up or gave in. You chose strength. You found your way.......

I can’t always tell you it will be alright. Sometimes no matter how we reframe and put it in a positive light, pain is just that… painful. It hurts. What I can do is listen with an open heart, a non-judging mind, an attentive countenance......

Good now. The torrential rain continues. Sending prayers to all affected by the flooding in the area. I had a quiet, peaceful weekend…just what I needed. Sometimes you have to take a break, to catch your breath and stand in the center of your life,......

Good now. Happy this moment. I choose to fill my soul with love, with wisdom, with certainty. There will be moments of sadness, of pain, of anger, of hatred in the world, but I will paint in colors of peace, of healing, of faith because......

Good now. Happy this moment. I really believe judgment is one of the most destructive weapons we as human beings use on each other. I’m guilty as well. Assumptions are based on our own beliefs and experiences and may not accurately reflect the truth of......

Good now. Happy this moment. Meditating on change and why it is that often right before I make a big leap and take a risk that I am tested and challenged. What is with the dark night of the soul when you spend so much......

Good Now. Happy this moment. It’s a cold January morning. My meditation this morning is simple. I heard and saw the word rejoice. I saw it spelled re-joys. Be grateful for the newness in this moment. Ask what brings you joy. It can be as......

Life Lessons 101. a) Embracing your creative passion is life changing. b) What we loved as a kid remains dear to our heart. c) People may come and go, but their essence lives forever. d) Don’t hold back. Express your feelings and emotions with honesty,......

Today, I rejoice in the new, the empty slate, the grand leap I am about to make into the great void of the unknown. I seize the pure potential and opportunity that the New Year brings to renew and refresh my soul. I finish 2015......

Good now. From the place of peaceful calm, I offer healing prayers to those who are dealing with health issues. It takes courage to support ourselves, to admit our body is finite, that it has its issues, challenges and frustrations. We are blessed with medical......

Good Now everybody. Welcome to Tuesday. Today’s meditative moment is on releasing. We are collectors. We collect people, things, emotions, thoughts, but after awhile we need to clean our room, examine what still resonates with our soul, gives us joy, makes us feel alive, passionate......

People have asked me about my greeting Good Now. I like good now for a few reasons. I have some friends on Facebook that live in South Africa, Australia, Sweden, India. It is evening where they are when it’s my morning. I want to extend......

When you’re at the end of your rope, grab hold of the other end and skip it. Never underestimate the power of play to beat the doldrums. Embrace your inner child. Laugh at the madness. Invite in fun. It’s not just for kids. Jody Doty...
