Lately, I’ve been immersed in the writing of Charles Eisenstein, a contemporary writer/thinker who is a leader in the effort to shift humanity into a new way of being — a fundamental change in consciousness so that we finally acknowledge our inherent unity with nature and each other. Charles is probably most well known for…

In my last newsletter, I spoke about the pervasiveness of fear and greed as forces that foment destruction in our world. I also asked whether some kind of awareness can deliver us from this fate. When I think about my current state of mind and that of most people I know, words come to mind…

April is Autism Awareness month, so what better time than now to talk about the subject of awareness in general and the ever increasing incidence of autism in particular? I’ve been planning to write this article for several years. Ten years ago, I began collecting data about the incidence of autism and projecting its growth,…

Check out a new podcast — Homeopathy and Synchronicity! This interview  of Amy by  Connie Habash aired on blog talk radio in January 2016. Amy talks about a possible relationship  between the mechanism behind homeopathy and the phenomenon of synchronicity.

Most of us are familiar with the concept of synchronicity — the occurrence of uncanny “coincidences” that carry meaning.

It’s like something big is coming, but at this…

Happy New Year! As we all know, this is a time for personal resolutions that set a tone for the coming year ahead. Why not make it one of your resolutions to search for a path to true healing, not through outside resources, but from healing knowledge that lies deep within you? One of the…

Is it more than coincidence that the quintessential American holiday — Thanksgiving — represents, at a deep level, precisely what the American people now so direly need in order to heal their souls? I think not. Think about it. Today, Western culture, and especially American culture, revolves around cultivating and enshrining a chronic attitude of…

Two years ago, as I was mulling over the growing crisis of climate change, I realized that the only way we were going to have a desirable outcome was if we could inspire most young people to care and do something about it. And the only way that was going to happen was if most…

Earlier this year, I found out about the work of brilliant thinker and writer, Charles Eisenstein. Quickly realizing that we were converging on similar ideas, I wrote to him and told him about my book Active Consciousness.
