Elevate My Mind

Our weekend at Sedona was all about Elevation.  Physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually.  Physically,  Sedona sits at about 4,000+ elevation above sea level.  Mentally and emotionally, Angela and I were each reminded of what we needed to work on individually in order to Elevate ourselves for our friendship and for Sacred Space.  Spiritually, we both worked on our ascensions; mine towards completion and Angela’s in commencement.

The below song, Elevate My Mind by Stereo MC, popped into Angela’s head as we were on our drive to Sedona from Phoenix.  Every time Angela and I are together, it’s a reunion of sorts.  It’s like coming home.  A definite homecoming.  We may be opposites, as in 6 and 9 on some things; but we share a love for music and dance amongst other things.  Music and dance always elevates us into a plane of ecstatic joy as if we were again teens in our high school dance.  We literally laugh out loud and laugh heartily.  Also, it’s common for us to be drive-dancing or dance-driving.  One of my cousins can attest to this, right doc Bads?

During our hike to the Subway Cave, a day before we were to attend the Gathering of the Shamans 2022, we were once again reminded of how each of our weaknesses complement our strengths hence making us a resolute pair.  I always tell Angela, we are a ‘Work In Progress.’  We both have trust issues.  I’ve worked on and continue to work on Trusting myself.  As in, learning to trust my intuitions.  For Angela, it’s learning to Trust others.  As in, letting people in, myself included.  The torch of light for this friendship, and inadvertently SS69, was officially passed on to me last weekend from Angela during the partial Solar eclipse, New Moon, Beltane, Pluto retrograde, Venus and then Mars passing through the Neptune-Jupiter conjunction.

I am Elevating this Light for us Your Highness.  I’m here for you now while you ‘elevate’ yo’ mind.  Here’s to your ascension!

‘Elevate yourself don't hang about

So wherever lies you'r latitude

Wherever you are we're gaining altitude

In all directions starting to climb

So come on girl - elevate my mind

I wanna go higher (elevate my mind)

I wanna go higher (higher baby)

(Let it reach ya) I wanna go higher (higher baby)

(Elevate my mind) I wanna go higher (higher baby)’ - Stereo MC

Mental health is one of the most important conversations of our time. Millions of people worldwide are searching for ways to manage anxiety, overcome depression, process trauma, and find a sense of inner calm. While modern psychology and psychiatry offer powerful tools, many people are discovering that ancient spiritual practices — including chakra healing — can complement their mental health journey in meaningful ways. At Sacred Space, we believe that caring for your energy body and caring for your mind are not separate pursuits. They are two paths leading to the same destination: wholeness.More

“Good juju” is more than a trendy phrase tossed around on social media. At its core, it reflects something deeply human: the desire to invite positive energy, protection, balance, and intention into our lives. Long before manifestation, journals and wellness influencers, cultures across the world practiced rituals designed to shift energy and create harmony between the physical and spiritual worlds.More

This year's Nurses Week theme — The Power of Nurses — could not be more fitting. Every year from May 6–12, the world pauses to recognize the men and women who show up tirelessly, compassionately, and often invisibly to hold space for those in their most vulnerable moments. But 2026 asks us to go further than gratitude. It asks us to truly reckon with the power nurses carry — the power to heal, to witness, to transform lives at their most fragile.More

April 25, 2026 marked the beginning of Uranus’ sustained transit through Gemini, a cycle that astrologers associate with major shifts in communication, technology, learning, and how people connect. Uranus represents disruption, innovation, and sudden change. Gemini rules information, language, media, and networks. Together, this transit is often described as a period of unexpected shifts in communication and ideas—a time when the way we think, talk, and share information changes quickly and unexpectedly. On a broader level, this era is linked to rapid advancements in technology, especially in AI, media, and digital communication, along with faster information cycles and new ways of learning and interacting.More

When I first discovered this Expo, I was at the beginning of my spiritual journey. I attended as a curious beginner exploring holistic wellness, walking through the event as a buyer eager to learn. Years later, after opening my own holistic wellness business, I returned—not as a visitor, but as one of the 200 vendors.
