1. Commentary by Elaine B. Holtz:  Wow 2023 Happy New Year to all my fans and listeners. My wish for all of us is we have Peace of Mind, Good Heath, and loving relations. Lots is going on and I find by having an attitude of gratitude I can get through most days feeling good about life.
I have a special guest this morning, joining me on the phone will be Rev. Dr. Patricia Keel, a longtime student of metaphysics and a spiritual teacher in the mystical tradition. Patricia was the Founding minister of Unity of Berkeley and is currently a frequent Guest Minister at Unity churches. All of us sit down on the first day of the new year and make those New Year’s Resolutions with the goal of improving our lives or gaining something for ourselves. Well, we are going to talk about that and give new meaning and ideas of New Year’s Resolutions we might consider.
Special Condolences to Mary Norton (Kens mother) on her sister Alice Walent having made her transition. Life is a mystery, and each day is a gift to enjoy.

2. Guest Rev Dr. Patricia Keel talks about metaphysics, that seeks the underlying meaning of experiences, and mysticism, that realizes the inner states that impact us as experiences. As we think of making New Year Resolutions, Rev. Patricia emphasizes that it is important to know that our inner state, whether relaxed or worried, will determine the outcome. Gratitude for what brings us joy in this moment now transforms worry into a relaxed state of trusting the universe. Patricia thinks that one of the biggest challenges is loneliness, and it can be transformed by that present moment awareness of gratefulness, realizing we each are connected to a greater self that is unique to one's true self whose calm presence is joy.

About our Guest:  Rev Dr. Patricia Keel is a longtime student of metaphysics and a spiritual teacher combining western metaphysics with eastern mysticism. She believes that every woman carries within her the wisdom, insight, and inner strength to overcome challenges and create miracles in the world. Her work as a teacher, coach, speaker, and trainer spans over 30 years with diverse groups from all cultures, faiths, and traditions. Patricia was the Founding minister of Unity of Berkeley and is currently a frequent Guest Minister at Unity churches. Her study in India over the past 14 years brings a unique depth to her work as East meets Western spirituality.
