Waking Up to Your Dreams (by Wendy Schuman)
Are you a frustrated dreamer? I know I am. I often wake up with fragments of scenes echoing in my mind that seem really meaningful--but then I leap out of bed, start my morning routine, and in seconds they're gone. I want to linger in that realm and tap into the guidance and insight rising from a wi

Prayer for the Gulf from the 13 Grandmothers
Because I lack an engineering degree and don't understand why we can't just stop this thing NOW with a 10-ton wad of gum or giant boulder or massive Q-tip, I'll share more spiritual wisdom from elders. This is from the beautiful, amazing International Council of 13 Indigenous Grandmothers--they each

Fresh Morning: Worry Away the Worry
"Worry is a prayer for something you don't want." - Sharon Gannon
I love that. The other day someone expressed concern about my excessive worrying habit, and I've been contemplating on it ever since. Doing my best to actually contemplate, rather than worry. I've been on a renewed Gilmore G

How Did You (or a Loved One) Heal from Cancer?
In addition to co-writing this blog and working at Beliefnet full-time, I'm writing a book. It's about how I got through cancer five years ago with a combination of heavy-duty Western meds and all I knew from my personal and journalistic experience of yoga, meditation, non-religious spirituality, an

One of my favorite chocolatiers here in Michigan is Grocer’s Daughter Chocolates in the little village of Empire in the Leelanau Peninsula:

They use organic chocolate and locally grown ingredients whenever possible. Their sea-salt caramels made with locally-collected honey are absolutely out of this world.

Dark Chocolate is much more healthy for you than milk chocolate. My favorite indulgence is Ritter Sport Dark Hazelnut Chocolate. It’s yummy and good for you!

Mmmm, hi blog sistah! My vote is for Dagoba, delicious organic choco in delightful flavors. Also LOVE the Endangered Species (I think that’s the name) chocolate. Their dark bars are so creamy and rich you’d swear there was some cow juice involved, but nope! And 10 % of their net profits go to eco organizations: http://www.chocolatebar.com/

I’ve been wanting to make those tiny cookies– how did they come out?

I am a chocoholic and pride myself on finding wonderful chocolate at bargain prices. One of my favorites is Aldi’s Choceur brand of dark chocolate (made in Austria)at $1.29 for 5 ozs. It’s one of the smoothest dark chocolates I’ve exerienced.
At Christmas time I lucked upon at Trader Joe’s some Mexican Hot Chocolate cookies for 99 cents a box. They are wonderful and I wish I had stocked up on them. They also had some Jamaican rum chocolate cakes for 99 cents a 14 oz. box. They are wonderful and I’m glad I stocked up on them. In the Caribbean, something like that would cost $16.00 at least and Trader’s Joe equalled them in quality.

Due to getting bigger size, I promised myself that I will go away from sweet foods, but every time I see dark Chocolates I tend to forget that I’m ob a diet.
