TTouch_small

Linda Tellington-Jones, Ph.D. (Hon), is passionate about helping all species return to a state of peace and well-being. What began as a love for riding horses as a young girl in Edmonton, Alberta -- she was teaching riding lessons and showing by age 13 -- led to a career of healing companion animals and their people by reducing fear and deepening the animal-human bond. Her pioneering work is called the Tellington Method, or Tellington TTouch -- a system of animal training, healing and … [Read more...]

One woman’s professional, personal experience with TTouch

TTouch_small

It's hard to overstate the role that Tellington TTouch has played in Dr. Cecilia Wendler's life, not only personally, but professionally in being able to help introduce this healing modality to health care professionals worldwide. Around 1996, she took the four-day training of Tellington TTouch for humans taught by its founder, Dr. Tellington-Jones. At the time, Dr. Wendler worked as a registered nurse in a surgical Intensive Care Unit at the University of Minnesota Medical Center. "I thought … [Read more...]

From the Editor: May we all be filled with Aloha

miejan

I've never been to our 50th state, but I get the attraction. It's not the islands and her tropical paradise, and it's not the power of her volcanos. It's not the kalua pig, lau lau and poi at the celebratory luaus, or the rainbows. It's all about aloha. To the uninitiated, it simply means hello or goodbye, but as our guides at to-hawaii.com say, it means much more: "Aloha is the most Hawaiian word...it also means love and affection...in Hawaii...you are treated with aloha everywhere. Some … [Read more...]

Life’s twists of fate offer an opportunity to grow, thrive

bubbles_sun_hope

More than 1.3 million people have taken the time to watch a three-minute TED talk delivered by corporate brand strategist Stacey Kramer. In 2009, a CAT scan revealed a golf-ball-sized tumor in her brain. A year later, she was speaking to audiences about her experience, saying, "The next time you face something that's unexpected, unwanted and uncertain, consider that it just may be a gift." Kramer, who doesn't wish a brain tumor for anyone, identified gifts that resulted from her diagnosis: … [Read more...]

From the Editor: The Power of Connection is Universal

hands_circle

We innately know about connection, the link we form with one another. We've been forming bonds with others for eons in the Afterlife as members of soul groups - and in this lifetime as members of families, communities and nations. We're hardwired to interact with others. Fortunately for us, we're part of the first civilization in human history with the ability to send messages to vast groups of people from around the globe with the touch of a keypad or a click of a mouse. And with the … [Read more...]

The Power of 3: An interview with Psychics in the Cities

psychics

It's one thing to create a business as partners, but it's something entirely different for three psychics to create a business in which they collaborate on readings at the same time for the same client. That's the Power of 3, the Psychics in the Cities, otherwise known as Kayla Wright, Judie Randall and Debra Battenfeld. The three Twin Cities women weren't the first to do it, but they see themselves as just a step ahead of a growing trend in which healers and lightworkers begin joining forces … [Read more...]

From the Editor: Massacres reveal much about our Evolution

handgun

If insanity, as described by Albert Einstein, is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results, then what is doing nothing over and over again and expecting different results? That's where America finds herself as she sits in the easy chair as if in a trance, watching as network anchors report on the 17th mass shooting in the past eight years. Communications strategist Karl Frisch said this to political commentator Stephanie Miller on December 20: "We're a … [Read more...]

From the Editor: Happiness is a Soothing Fog

fog

As I walk in the fog this morning, sensing the dampness on my cold cheeks, watching cars drive into the cloud bank and disappear, I wonder how different life would be if I truly believed that I am the limitless being of pure potential that wise thinkers tell me I am. I hear geese overhead but I cannot not see them. They honk as they fly blind through the white dew, relying only on instincts to get to where they are going. But we are not geese. We find it nearly impossible to follow our … [Read more...]

Birth 2012: An interview with Barbara Marx Hubbard

Hubbard,-Barbara-Marx

Futurist Barbara Marx Hubbard's view of humanity's future extends way beyond December 21, 2012, the reported end of the Mayan calendar, which doom-and-gloom merchants are using to scare us into believing the world is going to end. What's ending, Hubbard says, is business as usual. "This great time is an unprecedented opportunity to collectively make a planetary shift and step forward and give our greatest gifts to the emergence of a new co-creative human society," she says. "If we do that, … [Read more...]

From the Editor: And now for some enlightened prose

abstract_blue_form

We all must take the time to escape the absurdity of what poses for civil society today. The anger. The disrespect. Seemingly a growing alienation between people that is being demonstrated at all levels of government, and the trickle down is turning America bitter. The media no longer can resist overhyping the "sound bite of the day," and the competition for headlines has only begun. I am grateful this thanksgiving season that I have the opportunity to escape this growing din -- at will. My … [Read more...]

What do you want to see in The Edge this coming year?

miejan_small

From the Editor The oft-quoted phrase, "We are the ones we've been waiting for," empowers us to take responsibility for our lives and step into our power as individuals. It implies that within each of us is an ability to transform, to be the potential that lies within. It suggests that we can save ourselves. But are we doing that? When President Barack Obama was inaugurated on January 20, 2009, as the 44th president of the United States, he made it very clear that he alone could not … [Read more...]

What happens when 30 women, men share their inspiration?

faces_small

It was a typical June morning in 2012, already 80 degrees and the AC ran all night. I took care of my morning chores and then proceeded to answer emails that have gone untouched for weeks. As I prepared to edit articles for the July edition, I received a call that brought 30 courageous and inspired women and men spontaneously into my life. Without warning, good friend and entrepreneur Lori Rekowski (author of A Victim No More) was on the phone inviting me to participate in a second book of … [Read more...]
