I was just following another blog post that was about how people receive advice from their partners.. and how well that works out…. what an awesome and interesting topic to delve into.. As a spiritual-medicine person, I think my way of addressing the topic is a little different than most “coaches” … and that’s great!…

So it is time to talk about theory. It will help, I hope. I realize that some people who look at my articles don’t know what I am talking about. It has not been researched. They have never read about this approach in articles in professional journals. There are no numbers here and no statistics….

There are so many contributing factors to how we feel, and how well we function, both emotionally and mentally– including the physical. Some of the top holistic practitioners are beginning to understand the intrinsic connection between the mind and the body– as being more than just a hokey crunchy metaphor. The vagus nerve makes a…

It is always so in growth. You make a step. You feel the freshness of who you are, then the fear comes and grabs you again. It reminds me of the dance of the principal. I went to a parent’s meeting in the school of one of my children. We sat at tables that…

I don’t think I have to elaborate on the meanings in the poem in the last posting. It is clear enough. The most important things are the feelings that came through this work and I can list them here: Loss of control Asking for help Self-pity and self-criticism Fear Shame A wise thing to do…

What is creative empowerment, and how does it work? I talk about the three (3.5 technically) essential questions that will empower your life, anyone’s life- in any situation: Is it authentic? Is this from my highest self/ for my highest good ( similar but not the same- both should be addressed) What do I want…

“Listening to oneself” is an icon in the new age arena. Many spiritual and new age advocate the practice of ”listening to oneself”. When asked to listen, most people naturally expect to hear voices. You sit for meditation, pull your full focus inward and expect to hear voices giving you specific and enlightening guidance, but…

We get hurt in relationship… And so it is, that we can heal in relationship… When we were little our caretakers – however well intentioned – were unable to meet all of our needs… We adapted to this in various ways, through hiding and disowning aspects of ourselves, so that we could survive… But we…

Something strikes me now. In the blue drawing of a man being defined by what he is not, the lines in blue around the body feel like that fear, described in the previous posting. You see? The drawing knew it before me. Here is the drawing I at last made, late at night, of what…
