A thought or a suggestion on transformation.

By practicing compassion for others, we experience compassion too. In that moment there is an action which creates an experience of compassion–for the other, as well as for the self.

If we seek something, be it. Then you have the experience rather than seeking something you cannot access and then experiencing whatever is attached to not having–perhaps annoyance, frustration, sadness, what may be. By doing it or being it–compassion, empathy, patience we experience, feel, sense, attain the very thing we seek.

Practice not expecting the event to come to you. Be it. We experience what we are.

The manner in which we think and communicate shapes our perceptions of our world, and our lives. What message are your words communicating?

“I don’t have enough time!”. “Where did the ‘time’ go?”. The way we manage our lives greatly influences our experience of life, and ourselves. If we perceive that we “don’t have enough time”, we may begin to experience pressure — self-imposed pressure . This experience can gene...

The practice of compassion is beautiful.

For many, our experiences continue to influence our actions, whether consciously or subconsciously. Still for many, we are haunted--as we replay in our minds (ruminations) these memories trying to reconfigure, or reshape, or “correct” undesirable events. Initially, this process is instrumental t...

If we can change our perceptions of anxiety from, “I don’t want any part of that” to, anxiety is a natural process--an alert system detecting feelings of being uncomfortable. We can change the very way we experience life. Now that is freeing!

Evolutionary speaking, anxiety is natural and necessary. This neurophysical process alerts us to potential dangers in the environment and allows us to take actions to protect. We have all heard of the “fight”, “flight”, “freeze” responses. Right? However, the physical sensations often ex...

Embedded in every human is a survival frame of mind passed along generationally. However, some of our techniques are misguided or overused, misused or even forgotten. Take a moment and think about how we interact with one another—how on a global or macro scale we communicate and respond to one ano...
