For me at least, back pain is a sign that there is more support that I need to be giving to myself now.

Ideally, my attention would always be in the present moment and I'm not quite there yet. As a step forward, I want to focus on things day-by-day.

And so that's what I'm gonna focus on.  I plan on embracing the concept that if I just have one wond...

For me, the risk of trying and failing is much less problematic than the risk of not trying. Put another way, I could take failing a lot better than I could take not trying.  I owe it to myself to give myself the chance to make my life everything it could be, to fully realize my hopes and dreams. If you would like my support in achieving everything you could ever want in life,that support is avail...

The more I accept and align internally with  thoughts that are in alignment with the truth of who I am, the more that peace and wisdom and effectiveness are reflected back to me.  My inner world is projected outward and reflected back to me by the physical world.    The thoughts that we embrace and align with are reflected back to us. We can improve our thinking by being more aware of what that th...

We all have a unique path in life that leads us to Enlightenment, which I understand as the ceaseless experience of love, joy and peace.  We naturally draw experiences to ourselves that help us move along the path. The more we understand what our path is, the more intentional we can be in creating experiences in our life that move us smoothly and joyfully along our unique path.   As we become more...

Putting ourselves first benefits everyone. The more we have, the more we have to offer ourselves and others.  When I say have, having could be anything; money wisdom kindness,  talent, compassion, anything.  I have a friend who experiences great amounts of joy. The more joy she experiences, the more joy I and everyone else experiences being around her as an example. I have a unique talent to be in...

Some thoughts are so awful that I find myself not wanting to acknowledge them for fear that they might be true. I don't want to deal with the horrible thought.

I was expending to deny its existence and now have...

I have found that trusting thoughts that are accompanied by a deep and pervasive congruence has always served me well. In this podcast, I share a number of the thoughts that have that level of congruence.  While these thoughts may not be that commonly accepted in society, I believe they are true and necessary to accept for my own well-being.   We create our world with our thoughts. The more consci...

When people interact, they naturally are pulled towards embracing similar perspectives and understandings. The more deeply rooted in truth, our perspective and understanding is, the more likely we'll find people gravitating to that higher deeper understanding rather than pulling others into a lower energy, less true understanding.

If you're like me, accepting and benefiting from the help that exists can be a real challenge. One of the things that's helped me is to realize that m srlf esteem is not in any way diminished by accepting help, I don't have to do it on my own to be proud of myself. I'm proud of myself because of who I am not because of what I do. Understanding that helps me be  more open to accepting and benefitin...
