Goodbye & Adieu 2021

By Francoise E Netter As I contemplate the last week of 2021, I can’t believe that it has been two years of the Pandemic, the accompanying issues that seem to divide us, and the mental, emotional and physical circumstances of limitation and fear that have continued to linger personally and globally. My last week was […]

End of 2019 — Reflections and Insights

It seems that even though I am an author, I have only been blogging regularly at the end of each of the past few years (at the insistence of my web manager). What can I say about 2019? I spent much of the year as a gypsy in Coronado and Colorado. Coronado filled my soul […]

Cycles Of Change Into Graceful & Joyful Transformation

As I contemplate the end of 2018, I am reminded of the quote: “If you want to make God laugh, tell him your plans.” This year I was an official gypsy. My plants and belongings scattered in five different places as well as storage, I stayed with friends in Colorado, moved temporarily to Coronado Island […]

Good-night and Good-bye 2017

I knew that 2017 was going to be a year of change, but after 2016 I imagined the change would be welcome and easy compared with the challenges of the previous years. For someone like myself who has been teaching stress management and spiritual truths for decades, I imagined that I would be prepared for […]

Reflections on Motivation, Inspiration and Balance in Education and Life

From time to time, I like to include others insights on my blogs. In my opinion, educators are the foundation of our society. Not only do they educate the kiddos that become the future of our society and world, they also often provide the only continuity in many children’s lives. Our twenty-first century offers us […]

Cat Tales, Resiliency and Meditation

So many of you following my blogs know that I write articles about yoga, movement, learning and resiliency. So what do cat tales have to do with any of this? Let me explain. Yesterday, I woke up to my cat, Bhakti’s meows—“wake up time”—(with a cat who needs an alarm?) and walked into my kitchen […]

Happy Winter Solstice and Beginning Of A New Era

It’s days before Christmas and “all through the night” there’s much talk about the “end of the world” and the end of the Mayan calendar and more so an awareness (in Boulder and many other parts of the world) about the shift in consciousness available to each of us at this time. Many of my […]
