Welcome... Our InnerSelf welcomes your inner self.
Since I've been away this week (and still am) the newsletter is a a bit slimmer than usual. Scroll down below for the links to the articles.
If you find the "pickings slim" for articles this week, there are several thousands of excellent articles on the website. Let your intuition guide you to the ones that you "need to" read at this time. Scroll through the menus and select those topics that "jump out" at you or the ones your eye is drawn to.
Wishing you enjoyable insightful reading, and of course a wonder-full, joy-full, and loving week. And may we all keep focusing on love and healing for the whole planet and all its inhabitants.

Child abuse and neglect are, sadly, more common than you might think.

The "Personal Development" area covers Attitude Adjustments (which includes Fear, Anger, Gratitude, Forgiveness), Relationships & Parenting, Spirituality & Mindfulness (including Meditation), Intuition & Awareness (including astrology), and Happiness & Success.
