Pattern Recognition

This is the introduction from my recent Emotions & Ailments Workshop, and I felt like it should be shared to a wider audience, because it speaks to the foundations of so many things that I do. The audio has more information that the teaching notes below, but some people prefer the written word to listening…

[Monday Message] Hesitation

When you think about going after your goals, what stops you? Where is the hesitation? What is the fear? You are a cell in The Body Divine. Everything is in perfect order if you allow it to be. Fear is the illusion that this is not so. If you knew that, simply by committing yourself…

[Meditation] Healing the Impulse to Negative Self Talk

Equal Footing (reprint)

In honor of Juneteenth, this is a light rewriting of a post from 2014. The Monday Message will return next week. Legends, mythology, and stories abound with people giving up their worldly possessions on the path to enlightenment. I think a lot of people don’t really get what that’s about. I’m not sure I did…

[Monday Message] Letting Go of Past Patterns

We all have patterns. Once we become aware of them, they annoy us (or traumatize us, or make us feel poorly about ourselves). We seem to be having the same boss/roommate/partner over and over and over again. Newsflash: The Universe is not doing this TO you. If you’re going to attribute it to the Universe…

[Monday Message] You Are How You Act

Your life, your very personality, is defined by how you act with others. The more conscious you are of your interactions, the more in control of your life you are. In order to be conscious of how you act out in the world, it helps to be conscious of how you act internally. Start by…

[Monday Message] Getting Past Dislike

A cute little video I put together to help us be at the same starting point on this We are here to evolve spiritually. Technically, we are here to re-member who we are. The process of that is spiritual evolution. Every person, critter, or situation comes into our lives as a teacher. Whenever we have…

[Monday Message] Slow Down

Oftentimes, I find myself rushing when what I really need to do is slow down. The only moment that exists is right now. When I ruminate too much on the past, I’m obsessing about things I can’t change. When I project too far into the future, I’m living in stories, and I’m ineffectual. I live…

[Monday Message] Good is an Active Choice

Negativity is the absence of positivity. Darkness is the absence of light. Evil is the absence of good. Today, make a choice. Decide to do something about the state of your life, the state of your community, the state of the world. And then take action. You get to have a say in how things…

[Monday Message] Kindness leads to joy leads to kindness

One of the spectrums of attitudes that people bring to their interactions has, on one end, nothing but boundaries and, on the other end of that spectrum, there are zero boundaries. Some people call these bitchy and nice, but these are generally people who would prefer that you have no boundaries, or who have been…

[Monday Message] Breaking the judgment habit

Judgment comes from the negative ego and, as such, is restrictive. It is a tool, designed to keep us from growing and progressing, which allows our negative ego to stay in charge. Judgment binds us to karma, both ours and the karma of others, and keeps us out of acceptance. Karma is a choice. I’ve…
