Your Elusive Future Self

Your Elusive Future Self

Posted in: Growth & Change, Inspiration, Random, Reflections, Spiritual|April 5, 202141 Comments

Flashback to 2011…who were you ten years ago?  If you take a moment to seriously reflect on your status a decade ago, you may be astonished as most of us are to acknowledge that our values, preferences, and personalities have changed significantly – often in profound, fundamental ways.  But when asked to project ten years […]

Nature Nurtures Us

Nature Nurtures Us

Posted in: Growth & Change, Healthy Lifestyle, Random, Reflections|March 11, 2021

The combination of COVID, winter and technology has created a dangerous trifecta: we never have to or feel the need to leave our house again. We can shut it all down, quarantining, binging on Netflix and YouTube videos. We can work from home, zooming our colleagues and clients. Every restaurant delivers and groceries can be […]

What Dogs Can Teach Us

What Dogs Can Teach Us

Posted in: Healthy Lifestyle, Reflections, Spiritual|February 21, 2021

We can learn a lot from our furry four legged friends. Just observe how they stop to smell the roses on a walk, fully in the moment, as their mindless owner has their head buried in their phone, texting or updating their Facebook page. Dogs are fully alert, using all sensory perceptions to smell, see […]

Angel With Broken Wings

Angel With Broken Wings

Posted in: Random, Reflections|February 21, 2021

She came to me in the dead of winter, emerging like an angel in the fog on a freezing February morning. I was on a walk in the park, lost in my own little world, as she crashed into me. Our eyes locked, an unguarded moment, revealing pain buried deep behind the mascara of her […]

Surrender to the Resistance

Surrender to the Resistance

Posted in: Healthy Lifestyle, Random, Reflections, Spiritual|February 13, 2021

Life is not easy without inner peace. But so many of us have it backwards as we try to change our external world in the hope of creating a peaceful life.  The reality is that when we find peace inside ourselves, the external world matters far less. We tell ourselves: if I can just get […]

Crystal Ball 2021

Posted in: Growth & Change, Random, Reflections, Spiritual|December 29, 202011 Comments

2020 was a dumpster fire. The pandemic obliterated all our norms of daily life and the worst President in American history spewed so many lies and conspiracy theories that we have all become numb to the chaos. We have been challenged in so many unforeseen ways, big and small, but there is hope on the […]

Windmills of my Mind

Windmills of my Mind

Posted in: Healthy Lifestyle, Reflections, Spiritual|December 13, 2020

I walked into the Emergency Room lobby for the third time in six months, knowing full well they could not help me.  But it calmed my racing mind just simply to be in the halls of the hospital. It was an ironic place to seek comfort – surrounded by pain – but oddly it felt […]

Holy Days For The Soul

Holy Days For The Soul

Posted in: Healthy Lifestyle, Random, Reflections, Spiritual|December 11, 202012 Comments

***Holidays originates from Holy Days, a time for spiritual reflection*** Life is far too complex to compartmentalize your activities into three broad categories, and certainly during these challenging times in the age of a pandemic.  But it may be helpful to consider the motive behind all your endeavors and the ultimate benefit you derive as […]

Below the Surface

The unconscious mind is a dark, murky, mysterious wonderland.  It is a shadowy place that holds all our memories, ideas, feelings and thoughts that are out of conscious awareness. Considering a maximum of six pieces of information can be held consciously at one time, the overwhelmingly vast majority of data resides in your unconscious mind. […]

Humility

If the task of the first half of life is to put yourself out there to experience the world, the mandate of the second half is to make sense of where you have been and discover who are truly are.  Your first love, travel adventures, career, marriage, children – virtually all of life’s major experiences […]
