I resist commenting on political antics as much as possible, but this post captured the genuine concern most of us share. It is real. It is happening. And it is just a matter of time before it can no longer be ignored by those around him. *** “Oregon’s Bay Area is feeling concerned. · D____Continue reading “‘Feeling Concerned’ Is An Understatement”

‘INNER PEACE’ at 40% Off
Wow. The things I find in my email folder. That’s probably a bargain to find INNER PEACE for 40% off. It really is. So thanks, I needed the chuckle this morning. Surprisingly it came from the Jung Society offering lectures or something similar at discounted prices. I would think that ‘INNER PEACE thing’ would beContinue reading “‘INNER PEACE’ at 40% Off”
“Whether summoned or not, God will be present” – CG Jung
I’ve been a long-time fan of Carl Gustav Jung after reading his autobiography, Memories, Dreams, Reflections. So basically here I’m just passing along info sources and helping others to see that ‘beliefs’ in general are important to how we think of ourselves and consider our purpose in the world, or even more so in howContinue reading ““Whether summoned or not, God will be present” – CG Jung”
The NOW
“If your mind carries a heavy burden of past, you will experience more of the same. The past perpetuates itself through lack of presence. The quality of your consciousness at this moment is what shapes the future.” – Eckhart Tolle *** You know it’s hard to be a grownup. So many responsibilities—so many choices—so muchContinue reading “The NOW”

Secrets
Hey, who doesn’t have secrets? There are secrets that we keep from others—even secrets we keep from ourselves about our own lives. You can claim to not keep ANY secrets from others (or even from your conscious self), but I’m pretty sure you have something deeply stashed somewhere that you aren’t comfortable sharing or evenContinue reading “Secrets”
Chaos and Cosmos
I’m not certain that what I say on this subject will be of any value to others, but I should at least attempt to clarify what I’ve been personally feeling lately, as I assume that if I am experiencing these feelings, then it’s likely that others are as well. Let’s look at Jung’s statement above”Continue reading “Chaos and Cosmos”
Irrational Logic
Perhaps the world makes sense in some perverse way. Or perhaps it doesn’t. But most of us believe that it MUST make some type of sense for us to continue to live comfortably within it. Because if the world made NO sense, then wouldn’t that make us as senseless and purposeless as the world aroundContinue reading “Irrational Logic”
‘Meaning’ Is An Internal Experience
Again, I’m just sharing a good source of info and inspiration. The online company “Sounds True,” founded by Tami Simon, is a great source of both. Here she is interviewing one of my favorite Jungians: Dr. James Hollis, whose focus is always on finding more ‘meaning’ in our lives. It is well worth listening to,Continue reading “‘Meaning’ Is An Internal Experience”
‘Understanding Nothing’ At Last
I did chuckle when I saw this saying above: “To understand nothing takes time,” because I remember thinking as a junior in high school that there couldn’t be ANYTHING new to learn that I already did not know, so what was the point of my senior year? Ha-ha. (Yes, I actually said that.) It’s hardContinue reading “‘Understanding Nothing’ At Last”
Healing Our Collective Trauma
Because I’ve signed up for other FREE online psychology/spirituality conferences, I now receive numerous offers for additional conferences; and this is one I will definitely be registering for as I recognize a few speakers from other summits, etc. I’ll admit that I am one of the most ‘dangerous of beasts’: an armchair psychologist with noContinue reading “Healing Our Collective Trauma”
Insight, Courage, Endurance
How do we as individuals, survive difficult times? I know everyone is a little bit different in how they view the world that we all share, including how they see themselves in it, and even in how they strategize how to personally make it from one day to the next with their sanity intact. AndContinue reading “Insight, Courage, Endurance”
