When I moved, to get to know more people, I went to many mainstream and conscious living networking gatherings. Some gatherings can be tough at times because what I do can be controversial – Hypnotherapy, EFT, NLP, Astrology, Numerology and Birth Order – and I can take some negative hits every now and again.
When I [...]
I received an angry comment from one of my videos at http://www.michellepayton.com/video-clips.htm titled “Are Today’s Kids Gifted? How to Educate our Children.” In a nutshell, this person was very bitter when it came to children and felt they are all misguided.
As a mother of three dependent children at the moment while simultaneously seeking enlightenment – [...]
I moved from a conservative area to a more liberal area to (in part) be among a larger population of “my people.” Generally speaking, I’ve thought of a liberal as being more open-minded until recently.
It seems that some liberal’s are most flexible if you meet certain criteria:
1. You should live in the liberal approved [...]

The Death of a Salesman Eulogy: At Peace with the Learning that Came from an Abusive Childhood
What if you had to write a eulogy for someone that did you harm? Could you connect success in life because of your experiences? Who or what would you write about?
In my quest to find out more about the paternal side of my family (where my American Indian heritage originates), while striving not coming in [...]
I was watching a morning show in my area called Dr. Oz (November 9, 2009) and he shared a research graph that showed “happiness” being scientifically researched and divided into three parts:
50% was Genetics (includes childhood/adulthood experiences and body/brain chemistry)
10% was Geographic Location/Situation
40% was Intention
When the expert was asked about job satisfaction and economic circumstances, [...]
Over the past year I have metaphysically pondered how my closer “work”-related friends are doing now that they have crossed over. I say “work” related as a conscious living professional (worked together on events, projects, or a part of my companies/non-profit ventures…) and spiritual sense (my pathwork).
Bill Mitchell was an icon in the psychic world, [...]
In a networking chat group that I am associated with, a professional said (in summary), “If you’re negative your business (and life overall) will fail.” This overly used mind/body type remark has become increasingly unproductive over the years and now people are keeping “Their Own Secret” that they don’t always buy into having sunshine blown [...]
As the adrenal settles, I am moving into a winter state.
After five years of research and planning, I reached a major goal (5 representing new and change)–I moved my family to a new area – Asheville, NC. It hasn’t been without many bumps and bruises. The staging of the house to be sold (one year [...]
It’s kind of scary being a parent today.
The state of Georgia is pressing felony charges for child abuse, because a woman was dragging her son on the floor in a public place on a leash. Yes, I know that there is controversy around putting children on leashes (I can tell you that each of [...]

What’s in a wave?
Even as a child I’d always been one for waving at people as I walked by. But as I got older and people didn’t wave back I changed my approach to giving smiling eye contact and a nod as I walked by. (Then, if I didn’t get a little nod back it wouldn’t be quite [...]
