How Do You Feel About Hope?
How do you feel about hope? Does it help or hinder your relationship with navigating life? Is hope real? Is it our antidote to fear or the reality in front of us?
Meditation has Become a Treat
Meditation is many things, haven’t you found? At the very, very beginning my goal was to experience inner and outer peace.
Smiles
Do you smile to yourself or for yourself? The other day I noticed that when I look in the mirror I don’t smile at myself. Sometimes when I’m looking I try to see myself as the world sees me or at other times I don’t even acknowledge myself because I am too absorbed with the task in hand.
I Wake Up Thinking I Have Discovered a New Resource
Leo stands in front of me, looking intently at me, not as my child but just as himself. I look back at him with the same awareness. Then I see him move slightly to the side and I see a little boy.
What Do You Truly Want?
What do you truly want? Is it a thing, a place, or a person? Is it within reach? Can you make it happen? If not, how does it feel to desire something that feels out of reach?
The MA
Ma can be described as empty space, as a gap between one thing and another, or as a pause within movement or flow.
Spring
Have you ever lingered a moment longer wanting to savor the comfort of your cozy bed? Or licked the last drop of a delicious dessert?
Will You Join Me in Blessing the Planet
I grew up with grandmothers and family members giving out blessings. They gave them when you said hello or served them tea. Often times they would say, “Jeondi reh” (jay- own-di re-h).
Don’t Struggle in the Struggle
My Higher Self said:” Don’t struggle in the struggle.” I laughed because I had been in a struggle for weeks, months even. It was a difficult situation which was in actuality out of my hands but I still felt that I had to do something to change the direction it was heading.
The Map is not the Territory
A specific abstraction or reaction does not capture all facets of its source—e.g., the pain in your foot does not convey the internal structure of the rock, you don’t know everything that is going on in the life of a politician, etc.
God Forsakes Us All
In each of these instances, I did not wonder whether God was real, or if God was male or female. It never occurred to me to direct my prayers to any particular god: Christian, Muslim, Buddhist, etc. Instead, it was a simple plea from the core of my being. I was asking for some higher power to help me in a life/death situation.
Do Be. do. be. YOU
This post is about one thing, thanking you for being you, for staying at home or working on the frontlines, for taking care of loved ones near and far.
What Should You Do Differently?
Uncertainty. Not being in control. Not having the right resources (time, health, money), all have been a part of humanity’s story since the beginning of time. People have struggled, suffered, and been defeated by some form of calamity or another. We have had to learn to accept, innovate and reinvent especially during these times.
Help in Times Like These
Dear friends, How are you? How are things unfolding in your part of the world? Are you self isolating by yourself or with family, or friends? It is my hope that you are safe and that you are surrounded by people who rise up to meet this challenge with love and...
4 Ways Silence Can Raise Your Vibration
I'm back and the radio silence is over. I’ve been away from my blog for a few weeks preparing something wonderful for you. As I mentioned in my last blog of 2017, I want to be more creative and be part of something transformative and uplifting. 2018 is all...

Saying goodbye to the past year
With 2018 fast approaching, it is time to review and release the past year. Rather than looking back through memories for successes and failures, or good moments and heartbreak, let’s use a simpler technique. We will be tuning into what our bodies experienced by...
How To Raise Your Vibration And Lose Fear of Failure
Last week, I wrote about raising our vibration. Did you try it? Good job. Was it easy to do or did you encounter some hurdles along the way? A bit of both? For those of you who didn't try it, what stopped you? I am sure there are many many reasons why you didn't, but...
Raise Your Vibration
"Raise your vibration!" is all I seem to hear from my inner voice. It would seem to be suggesting I use that to counteract the negativity and dysfunction broadcast night and day in the media but I don't think that's the whole story. I don’t watch shows with violence...
Ready for the Holidays?
The holiday season is upon us again and although many of you are filled with the excitement and joy at what comes with this time of year, others find it to be a time of apprehension, stress, and unhappiness. For anyone in the latter group, I wrote the book, Surviving...
Who Wants To Live Forever?
If it were up to you, would you choose to be immortal? Live forever? As you can imagine, when death takes someone close to us, be it a friend or loved one, it leaves us with questions about our own mortality, What is the purpose of life or the point of suffering? Why...
How Are You Doing After Your Loss?
In the last few weeks, I have been asked, “How are you doing?" many, many times by loved ones, dear friends and colleagues. They are referring to the recent loss of my father. Each person who has asked this question is so loving, thoughtful and kind. They are ready to...
Remember Me Like This
Part Two - "Remember me like this." Last week, I wrote about messages from the beyond and my wanting to discern if my father could be trying to communicate with me. I would like to continue with that conversation today, but before I do that, I would like to express...
Is That You Dad? Messages From The Beyond
Part One In the weeks since my father passed away, I have have been noticing and paying attention to odd and anomalous moments, movements and activities around me. For the most part, I have been listening and watching extra carefully to see if there are any messages...
What Does It Mean To Accept My Father’s Death?
I light the paper. Soon enough the kindling catches fire. Smoke swirls around the firepit and lifts up into the sky. I watch as I wonder, "What does it mean to accept my father's death and let him go?" As I sit down, I notice the contradictions pulling inside of me....
Instant Energy: Turn your inner light on
With Navjit still in the UK with her family, she has asked that we run an older meditation. Being that it is early in the morning and gray outside we have opted to go with one to turn on our inner light... and wake us up. -The Tenderlogic Team From the Monday...
How to get through the Dark Times
In life, there will be pain and there will be loss. No one gets to escape these aspects of human existence. All you can do is learn to deal with the dark times as best you can. Sadly, that is the situation here at Tenderlogic this week. Navjit's father passed away...
Love Is Real.
At times in my life, I have felt the bounty of love. The kind that knocks you off your feet and makes you weep because you are so humbled. Because you didn’t believe that love would find you in the depths of darkness and pull you out. The kind of love that feeds and...
Can Higher Power be Inner Power?
Oftentimes when things are going well; we are finding success, getting our way, etc. we credit it to the universe or a higher power. "The universe is listening to me" or "My guardian Angel is on the ball today." I probably say similar things 10 times a week....
How To Get That Twinkle In Your Eyes
You can’t fake a good twinkle in your eye. I’ve seen that twinkle in babies and grandmas. Dogs and dads! I’m so drawn to their lit up faces and that freshness they sparkle with. Just recently while working with a client I came up with a new exercise that does exactly...
“I trust her beyond belief. I do not throw trust or money around lightly. And Navjit has earned every bit. She walks her talk. And then some. To say she has integrity is an understatement. Awake, clear and ON. I have recently gone through a very difficult year and on many occasions, I have paused to ask..what would Navjit do? If every finger of mine were a thumb, she would get 10 thumbs up.”
