Over the last 25 years, I’ve been trained in many healing modalities—many techniques used to help facilitate a client’s progress during their own personal healing journey. In other words: I know ‘stuff.’ I can do ‘stuff.’ My more spiritual work began with the Japanese energy-therapy practice of REIKI. Then I received training in Karuna REIKIContinue reading “The Gray-Scale Zone”

A Whole Lot of Nothing
“The one thing that connects all things at all scales: space.” Resonance Science Foundation *** Didn’t I just mention that many physicists think we are more nothing than something? Well anyone familiar with chronic pain can tell you that it sure doesn’t feel that way. What was that ‘importance of pain’ quote from the movieContinue reading “A Whole Lot of Nothing”
Expecting Sanity in an Insane World
Sometimes I do find humor in my own ‘arrogant humanness.’ In fact if I couldn’t laugh at myself and how my hamster-wheel mind turns, then there would be little to laugh about in this world. My closest group of friends, like the rest of the world around us, is undergoing their own set of personalContinue reading “Expecting Sanity in an Insane World”
Becoming the VOID
Saw the image above along with the title: “Black cat climbs into bed and basically becomes the VOID,” and thought, ‘Yes, we perceive the VOID as intense blackness—a nothingness that we cannot comprehend, but is it nothingness or are we incapable of defining the something that it truly is?’ My guess is the latter becauseContinue reading “Becoming the VOID”
Indomitable Spirit
“Here’s to the bridge-builders, the hand-holders, the light-bringers, those extraordinary souls wrapped in ordinary lives who quietly weave threads of humanity into an inhumane world. They are the unsung heroes in a world at war with itself. They are the whisperers of hope that peace is possible. Look for them in this present darkness. LightContinue reading “Indomitable Spirit”
YOU Are THE UNIVERSE
“You are the surface on which the universe encodes information… you give the universe the surface to grow and learn.” – Nassim Haramein The image above has been around awhile, but the thought is always hard to comprehend so it is worth repeating. YOU are the UNIVERSE expressing itself for a limited time through theContinue reading “YOU Are THE UNIVERSE”
The Door
Couldn’t choose between the two images, as they both reflect my present thoughts, so will post them both together because I think that’s where they need to be considered—together. I’ve previously elaborated on the KNOWN and the UNKNOWN (“Understanding Nothing”), so there is no point in trying to squeeze more from that thought; but whenContinue reading “The Door”
Weathering the Storm
I’ve resisted commenting prior on the disastrous situation in Ukraine because to do so would simply be to add one more useless opinion to airwaves overloaded with them, and would be as hopelessly ineffective as all the rest. But I do also recognize that there is something far greater happening here besides the obvious crueltyContinue reading “Weathering the Storm”
“I’m Fine”
Saw this T-shirt ad and laughed, remembering a time well over a decade ago when I was saying the same thing to anyone who asked: “Yeah, no,… I’m fine.” “Yeah, no…” just by itself, said it all. Inner conflict reigned supreme in me, and I was really struggling at the time. My guess is IContinue reading ““I’m Fine””
Abandoning Our Views
Tree of Life Fan Page “For things to reveal themselves to us, we need to be ready to abandon our views about them.” ~ Thích Nhat Hanh
Reinventing Ourselves
“Year’s end is neither an end nor a beginning but a going on, with all the wisdom that experience can instill in us.” ~ Hal Borland ~ Art by Mark Duffin (shared from ॐ Simplicity, Elegance and Grace of Nature ॐ ) *** As one who has spent decades reinventing myself career-wise or at leastContinue reading “Reinventing Ourselves”
NLP and Reframing Situations
While listening to a Brandy Gillmore session this morning on healing a client’s self-blame/inner-guilt, I finally realized what techniques she was actually using with her client—it was a mixture of distant energy-work, combined with light hypnosis and some serious NLP (Neuro-Linguistist Programming) phrasing and reframing meant to shift the client’s current unhealthy ‘stuck-perspective’ and expandContinue reading “NLP and Reframing Situations”
