As we enter into the new year each day brings us closer to the year 2012. Children have been bombarded with much of the doom and gloom and we as a society should be aware of the sensitivity that this issue may have on young children.

Obviously, the age of the child will determine how detailed the conversation is. As a certified educator having worked in the public school system, I am aware of the conversations that occur amongst children. It is inevitable that some student will comment in class on the most recent sensationalized media event that often times opens the proverbial can of worms. It is extremely challenging at times as an educator when certain topics arise and you need to console a child. There have been times through the years where I have had to request the support of guidance counselors and or parents to assist.

The conversation regarding 2012 is one that certainly needs to take place at home with parents. As a mother of three boys, I have discussed this topic with my children. Each child has a unique perception, my role is to answer questions, and help to make them feel safe.

Even if your family watches very little TV, we must be aware as parents that our children may have seen or heard something somewhere along the way. They may have questions but are too afraid to ask. I believe it is our responsibility to empathize with our children and to create the best positive outcome for them in their lives.

I personally am most conce
ed about our college age group. They for the most part are on their own, away from our daily influence as parents. They are bombarded with doom and gloom media & engaging in substances (not all of course). They may have questions or conce
s that perhaps are not being addressed.

If you are unfamiliar with the topic, you may want to do some research both on the 2012 prophesies as well as our planetary changes that are occurring.

It is my deliberate intention to have our children be free from any worry and to help alleviate fear. If you are aware of the Law of Attraction, then you must have a general understanding that energy flows where thoughts go.

If our society becomes overwhelmed, confused or afraid at all regarding the 2012 prophecy then more fear and anxiety will be created.

We must come from a place of love instead.

I never think of myself as a pack rat. Maybe the love of much. Maybe too much? But there are times when I look around the house and I can’t find the dog or I delve into drawers and come up empty handed or I find myself crawling around closet floors in search of a runaway shoe. I end up ...

One of the comics that I admired for her sharp observational humor is Carol Leifer. Well, Carol just published a very funny book called, "When You Lie About Your Age, The Terrorists Win." She writes about embracing her life and her age and her writing is insightful and hilarious. I just had the good fortune to interview Carol about her life and her new book. ec. We both grew up on Long Island but we never had any play dates together. Another thing we have in common were fathers who were both naturally very funny.

ec: Before we delve into the subject of Intuition and how it has impacted your life, in all areas of your life, can you give us your definition of Intuition? I think there are still some who feel that getting in touch with your inner voice only happens in a smoked filled backroom with a woman named Mistress Sylvia and a crystal ball. TR: Well that has been known to work but there is a better way. My definition of intuition is that still inner voice within that we all have but have learned to discount. Einstein called intuition the highest form of knowing.

If you've ever felt you wear a sign that reads, "Please take advantage of me," you are not alone. Tons of women are in the same boat. They feel like props, fixtures and tools that hold up other people's lives. With little certainty of how to uplift their own.
