Be. Here. Now.

Be. Here. Now.

Posted in: Reflections, Spiritual|February 5, 2023

Mindfulness is your natural state that we all can awaken to. It is not something you need to strive for, can buy, achieve or create; it is already within you. You just need to separate and navigate through the clutter of your mind to discover what has always been within you. This is what makes […]

The Crazy Cocktail

The Crazy Cocktail

Posted in: Growth & Change, Healthy Lifestyle, Spiritual|January 31, 2023

Your entire life consists of sensory perceptions, thoughts and emotions. That’s it, that’s your life! This is how you experience life and it essentially makes up your “world”. It becomes you, your identity, and how you view the world and navigate through daily life with all its ups and downs (actually, there is another – and […]

Moving at the Speed of Life

Moving at the Speed of Life

Posted in: Growth & Change, Healthy Lifestyle, Spiritual|January 13, 2023

Time can be our worst enemy and the cause of so much suffering. Not clock time, but rather psychological time, where we dwell in the past or project into the future. We are either trying to reconcile a history that we keep reliving over and over again or trying to avoid a bad future that […]

The Long Road to Enlightenment

Posted in: Growth & Change, Healthy Lifestyle, Inspiration, Spiritual|January 7, 2023

I launched this website in 2012, and here now a decade later I am writing my final blog entry. This decade was quite remarkable for me, starting with immense suffering which ultimately transcended into an amazing spiritual journey, that which I am eternally grateful for now and view it as the greatest gift in my […]

Dis-ease

Dis-ease

Posted in: Growth & Change, Healthy Lifestyle|November 25, 2022

The word disease originally was used to refer to lack of ease or comfort rather than how it is used today to describe a sickness or health condition. But perhaps in this context it is apropos to revert back to its original definition where dis-ease literally meant to not be at ease.  Whenever you can, pause and […]

My Two Minds

Posted in: Healthy Lifestyle|November 10, 2022

Hey, isn’t that Jim over there? I’m sure he saw me, why didn’t he say hello? I bet he’s mad at me, because of what I said at the party. Whatever. I don’t really care about Jim anyways. But…is he really mad at me? In case you haven’t noticed, you have a mental dialogue going on […]

Let Go/Don’t Know

Let Go/Don’t Know

Posted in: Growth & Change, Healthy Lifestyle, Spiritual|October 19, 2022

When we take a moment to look at our own relationship to life, we may discover we are constantly trying to manage people and circumstances to fit our narrative on how the world should be. When people don’t behave the way we want, we get agitated; when events don’t go our way, we get angry […]

Trapped in our Minds

Trapped in our Minds

Posted in: Growth & Change, Healthy Lifestyle, Spiritual|October 10, 2022

There is nothing either good or bad but thinking makes it so! ~Shakespeare~ Have a look around, observe how nearly everyone around you is completely lost in thought. I see it everywhere, people drifting off in thought as if they are spaced out, dwelling in memories or anticipation of some event in the future. Practically […]

Your Inner Voice

Your Inner Voice

Posted in: Growth & Change, Spiritual|July 5, 2022

You have a voice inside your head that never stops talking. This self-talk comments on everything, judges everyone, tells you what you like and dislike, and even criticizes yourself. This voice carries on nonstop conversations, often taking both sides simply to continue the conversation such as harmless dialogue like Maybe I’ll have a drink tonight; no, […]

The Mind’s Merry Go Round

Posted in: Growth & Change, Healthy Lifestyle|July 2, 202218 Comments

Nearly 50,000 thoughts barrage your mind daily, inundating you with a flood of feelings and emotions: thinking, musing, fantasizing, planning, anticipating, worrying, liking, disliking, remembering, forgetting, evaluating, reacting, story telling and fabricating reality to conveniently fit your own truth.  You are doing this all day, every day, nonstop mental commentary.  Even more remarkable, 98% of […]
