Can You Trust Yourself?

Can you trust yourself? Do you find yourself constantly in trouble with yourself because you lie to yourself about time? Do you make promises to yourself and others that don’t allow for the reality of interruptions, self-care, rest or play? Then you have to go back on your promises or get out of balance trying […]

Are We Telling the Truth to Ourselves?

Even if we feel lonely and isolated, we can’t help but actually belong to many different groups. Our gender, our race, our culture, our country, our age group, our religion, our community, our workplaces. And many of us also belong to other organizations that we’re members of. But within all of these groups, are we […]

What is a Third Eye?

There are seven energy centers or chakras in our body where nerve points meet. The third eye energy center, or ajna chakra in Sanskrit, is known as “the seat of intuition.” Translated from Sanskrit, ajna means to “perceive beyond wisdom.” Located in the center of the forehead in the pineal gland, it acts as your […]

The Union of Body, Mind and Spirit

Oftentimes, people come to learn how to meditate because their lives have been overtaken by stress, they can’t focus, they can’t sleep, they feel anxious or depressed. These are wonderful reasons to begin a meditation practice. But meditation is much more than a good feeling. It is the union of body, mind, and spirit. Most […]

The Smokey Mirror

Our preconditioned views often distort reality. I’ve been doing a little reading on some of the Shamanic and Toltec traditions recently. In my research, I came across a concept they refer to as “the Smokey Mirror.” The Smokey Mirror refers to the filter we all have when we view reality. When we see the world […]

Nature is a Restorative Drug

I thought I was pretty relaxed, chill, easy-going and relaxed on a normal day-to-day basis. That was until I returned this week from my first weeklong vacation since prior to the pandemic. I was feeling completely drugged by nature's effects. Nature is a restorative drug. I spent six nights whitewater rafting down the Middle Fork […]

How Meditation Changes Your Brain

Wouldn’t it be great if we could simply sit down on our little cushion to meditate? Instantly drop into the stillness, our internal chatter quieted, our bodies relaxed, not a care in the world? No doubt it would! But it doesn’t happen like that. But did you know that meditation changes your brain? It takes a bit […]

Living Blame-free

In my coaching practice, I encounter many clients who seem to be stuck either in a cycle of blaming another for life not turning out how they’d like or blaming themselves for what they perceive to be a failure. How do we get to a place where we are living blame-free? When we point the […]

The Endless Tug of War

One of the greatest benefits of meditation is it allows us to stop the insanity of our daily lives. Have you ever stopped to notice how we are caught up in an endless tug-of-war with the way things are? Think about how easy it is to be driven out of the present moment by our own […]

Nothing Lasts Forever

Nothing lasts forever. Sound pessimistic? Think about it. Do you look today like you did a decade ago? Are those pretty flowers you received for Mother’s Day still fresh and alive? Do you still have the headache you woke up with last week? Nothing lasts forever. When we think of mindfulness, we primarily associate it […]
