April 1, 2010, sixteen wild years ago, I launched the Happiness Club of Loves Park, IL.   I was coaching and doing speaking gigs, presentations and workshops teaching joy and science of happiness. As a member of AATH (Association of Applied and Therapeutic Humor), American Happiness Association and other organizations, I met Lionel Ketchian, a professor in Connecticut, who had created Happiness Clubs. He asked me to start a club in Illinois. So I did.   I rented the room at t

From late 2008 until 2021 sometime, I sent an email newsletter, my JOY LETTER, every single Friday. It started when I was life coaching and continued when I morphed into book coaching and kept going when I circled back to spiritual coaching. No matter what my work was, I always sent upbeat inspiration every week.   Then I retired. And here I am again. These email missives are not every Friday like clockwork but maybe will become so again, who knows.  I just got an email from

"You are literally wired to love fearlessly, express the sacred, and live from your highest human potential  so that we can create the best world possible, one where our interconnectedness brings with it peace and the next phase of our collective evolution." ~Steve Farrell

There could be a deep divine meaning to this global dark night, which is to strip us to our depths so that we can rediscover who we really are  – both human and divine – and come together in a worldwide, passionate revolution of love in action. ~ANDREW HARVEY Dec 1, 2025 LOVE IN ACTION! That is our goal at Access SOUL.   What people need now is to be reminded of what already/has always existed – the peace within. We been hosting meditation and sound baths for years at our hom

Dec 29, 2025 The end of December, the end of another year. We humans seem to naturally turn inward, get reflective as the calendar page turns. This year though, it's not just nostalgia, or flipping through photos and memories, it's about really FEELING what you're feeling.   I came across an article I want to share with you from a gal named Lauren Galley because she mentions sound healing. That totally resonates (pun intended) with me. She writes: “This time of year there is

Last January at this time, we were in Sedona. I was at the Channel Panel taking workshops with Daniel Scranton, Lyssa Royal Holt, Neil Gaur, and Darryl Anka, among others. Jim went hiking and had a mystical experience which cracked him open. Quite a spectacular trip.   A few Januarys ago at this time, we were in Florida at Michael Singer’s Temple of the Universe. He is the author of The Untethered Soul  and The Surrender Experiment , two books we highly recommend. We attended

Jan 8, 2026 What do you call a wolf who meditates? AWARE WOLF. 😉 This is a plug for the EXPERIENCE of meditation! Because --- you gotta do it to feel it. You can read about it, talk about it, wonder about it. And then you gotta try it. "Understanding changes nothing. Practice changes everything." TCCHE: The Conference for Consciousness and Human Evolution London, UK   I just read an email from our friend Kyle Boyd of the Heart Coherence Collaborative. (Jim and I did sound h

Jan 10, 2026 Hello luvs! Welcome to the present moment. Right here, right now.   Take a breath with me. Feel the lifeforce energy come into your body. Feel it expand your lungs and rib cage. Feel a long slow exhale. Notice how your body feels now.   That long slow exhale (longer than your inhale) signals your brain that you are safe . The body’s internal system is wired to respond to that long slow exhale. You can physically feel your nervous system calm down a bit.   Amen an

Jan 14, 2026 This was written a couple weeks ago by Casi Shelton, founder of Healing House and creator of the children's book Buddy Bear . With her permission to share:   Authenticity Attracts Authenticity "Today I spent time in meditation with a woman who has supported me in slowing down, listening inward, and trusting myself more deeply. She simply holds safe space - and today’s meditation felt like I was being wrapped in reassurance. What came through so clearly was:I am a

Jan 23, 2026 I posted this excerpt from Daniel Scranton/ The Creators, on my Facebook today:   “Many people get the idea in their heads that being of service has to mean making sacrifices and doing things you don't really want to do. We invite you to graduate from that level of consciousness. Know that when you chose to incarnate, the way that you intended to be of service was always going to be something that brought you joy.   You don't have to feel guilty for doing what yo

I read this last night at our Meditation gathering and thought I would share it here with you.   Instructions before visiting Earth (by James McCrae) In the event that you wake up and find your soul separated from source and manifest into material form, don’t panic. Your condition is only temporary.   You have been selected for the opportunity of human incarnation.   This 3D simulation is designed to break up the monotony of eternity by giving you a fully immersive experience

Jan 30, 2026 Today was the visitation and funeral for my friend Bernice. She was 101. This last year was decline, but she had 100 "good" years on planet earth. I was continually amazed how her voice and mind and heart remained strong. What a blessing. I love you, Bernice.   I also just learned of Catherine O'Hara's passing. I don't know anything about this famous actress except for her stunning talent. She was only 71. She made me laugh. What a blessing. Thank you, Catherine.

"If the only prayer you ever say in your entire life is thank you, it will be enough." ~Meister Eckhart Hello luvs! I believe GRATITUDE changes our mood and changes our vibration. And when we raise our frequency, it affects the entire collective.   Here's an old blog post from Feb 2016 .   On December 1, I started writing a thank you note every day. Not all of my notes are able to go in the mail though. My first note was to France. A lot has happened in my life since that yea

Feb 10, 2026 I came across this in my archives and felt like sharing.   "TO LOVE THE WORLD" by Mary Caskey   Forget trying to understand physics. Forget becoming a theologian.   You only need to drink up the blazing sunrise sweeping color across gray dawn,   finger soft clumps of Siberian iris that blossomed overnight,   sharpen your gaze on the lone pink columbine springing from a sandstone cliff,   soak in the rising new moon commanding a darkening sky   watch a mother card

Feb 11, 2026 I have never been one to celebrate Chinese New Year, but I’ve had Feb 17 “YEAR OF THE FIREHORSE” on my calendar for weeks. Very strong energies will not let go of me. I finally pulled the trigger to host a small ceremony.   This is what came through:  “Once in 60 years, FIREHORSE brings intense, transformative energy, and rapid change. We are feeling it already! (Well, I sure am.) The year of the Snake, all the shedding, comes to an end. Firehorse is a year for m

Hey Howdy Hello!   Valentine's weekend can be triggering for some. We live in a society that sends endless messages, usually not powerful uplifting messages, and our brains over time have co-opted those messages to be truth.   The external messages of social media, media media, advertising, endless scrolling, etc. are NOT the truth.   YOU are whole and sovereign and a delightfully perfectly imperfect human whether you have a partner or not, whether you have a sweetie this wee

Feb 21, 2026 Just popping in to say hello, send you a Mary Oliver poem, and a virtual hug.   Our nervous systems are so overloaded these days. Take a pause, read a poem, and just breathe.   Even when we can't see it, the sun does slide out of the darkness, every single day.   In Service to Spirit. Much love. xxKelly
