Best Sex, Worst Sex

Women's True Stories

Best Sex, Worst Sex tells a story through thirteen women's sexual experiences, the story of women's breadth as sexual beings and the dimensions of sexual misuse and fulfillment.

When the idea for this book came to me, I was at a women's conference, a place of such trust and power it lifted us and bound us together.  All the women in the book attended the conference. Telling the stories of both the best and the worst sex creates a dynamic that means traveling into our upbringing, values and vulnerabilities, and delving into our needs, desires and truths. Telling both means neither dwelling on the worst or romanticizing the best.  As the dynamic of best and worst sex peers through the carnal and into the core of us as women. It explores our sexuality in context with the full dimensions of emotions; rather than present our sexual acts, we present ourselves as whole beings.

The stories are as different as we are.  Mighty, a punk rocker, loses touch with  her vulnerability which propels a gang rape.  Diane, an academic, has best and worst sex coincide.  Kate, a writer, attracts men who need to conquer her.  Janet, a woman of wealth, dances around violence.  Johanna, a performing artist, is torn by her desire for both genders.  A nun, Sister Sarah's repressed sexuality is unleashed within celibacy.  Annie, a business woman, sees sexuality in a whole new light.

Indeed, the power of this book is to see sexuality in a whole new light. One that opens up to an expanded view of sexuality. A necessary element in our paradigm shift.

 

Loving Yourself

As a Spiritual Journey

This book is an example of conscious co-creation between myself and Spirit. 

In the late 1980s I was haunted by Whitney Houston's rendition of "The Greatest Love of All." The song reaches to a crescendo with the line "Learning to love yourself is the greatest love of all." I loved the song, but my lack of self-love was brought home every time I heard it. 

After a spiritual crisis in 1991, I was visited by a Spirit Guide who walk over to me while I was in emotional turmoil.  At the time I sitting on a cold boulder next to a rushing mountain creek. Soon after the visit I started bringing in messages from Spirit.  Over time many of them became focused on self-love and Spirit or God's importance in the process. This book and How To Love Yourself are outlined in the seven steps in this book.

If you want the encouragement you need and the wisdom that comes from Spirit this book will take you on a journey and show you how loving yourself is a critical and first step in real spiritual growth.  Practical and written so that you consciously grow and learn new ways of processing your own life's unfolding: Loving Yourself as a Spiritual Journey will inspire you and Spirit will guide and comfort you. 

Loving yourself is part of your personal shift in paradigms, and thus you can better participate in the greater shifts.

How to Eat What You Want and Be Thin

The first book I wrote, it was inspired by the fact I taught my brother how to stop binge eating based on my own learning. 

I have a vivid memory of riding the "L" to work in Chicago when I as in my early 20s. I would sit and think that it would be heaven on earth if I could eat what I wanted and be fifteen pounds lighter. My fantasy came true. It wasn't a miracle. No fairy godmother waved her magic wand.  I learned how to be thin and then it became amazingly easy.  I've lived this way for over 30 years. A prime motivator for making learning how to be thin was that I simply did not want to waste a lot of energy worrying about what I eat or did not eat that day.

While this book was initially inspired in the age of the fad diet books, it still offers the advice and process for you to transition from working at following a diet to lose weight to being thin naturally.  It is a process.

As I mentioned above, one of the most powerful aspects of this is that the energy you now give to fretting about your weight and eating can be redirected into much more powerful endeavors.
