Q: If I am living an illusion as it says in ACIM, what is the point of eating well e.g. organic foods, exercising, taking vitamins, etc.? I have always done these sort of things because I want to be healthy. But at 57 years of age, I say what is the point if...
ACIM Q&A Day: I struggle with the idea that being spiritual means loving everyone. Especially since there are people in my life who don’t make me feel good when I am around them. How do I handle them in the most loving way? This is such a great question as...
Anxiety sucks, but it can be a catalyst for massive spiritual growth. In this interview on “ACIM Hangout” I share my journey through anxiety and the hard core teachings of “A Course in Miracles” that helped me kick anxiety out the door.
After having struggled with anxiety for many years, I’m a big fan of inner peace. A HUGE fan. I’ve found that simplicity breeds peace, so naturally, I like to keep things simple. I have only one New Year’s resolution, which is actually not about New Year’s at all. It...

ACIM Q&A Day: “Why does the ego feel so hard to overcome?” The answer to this question can be a tough one to swallow: Because we want it. We want the ego because it is our ticket to feeling special and separate, and the body is the chosen home of the...
Do you ever wake up feeling like fear is gripping you around the neck? Or do you wake up feeling an unshakable sense of peace? I’ve experienced both. I have found that early mornings are a time when my “guard” is down. If I have even the slightest amount of fear...
On a recent ACIM study group call, we were discussing the idea from the Course that there is no karma, meaning that Spirit is not keeping score on what you do in order to bring on some sort of retribution later. Instead, in this instant, we are choosing to listen to...
As students of “A Course in Miracles” we “get” the whole idea that the body isn’t real and that this is all an illusion. But if you’re like me, I wake up everyday thinking that I am Corinne and that I am limited to an existence in a body. “Getting” the idea of this...
