We Are More Than What Separates Us
One of the biggest insults | crimes | untruths leaked into the human race is the illusion of separation. The belief that we are separate from each other to various and solid degrees; gender, skin, emotion, thought. These useful and convenient layers we use to identify ourselves will make life more manageable, only until we

Pinned Post: What is Emotional Mastery?
Emotional mastery is about more than control and it has nothing to do with perfection. Emotional mastery is about observation and conscious decision making. It’s about seeing the choices that show up in your reality; in the split second before stress does, in the moment before disharmony is expressed through an argument in your relationship,

Sometimes, Being Powerful Looks Like You’re Doing Nothing

The folks I hang out with have different faiths, beliefs, ethnicities, economic backgrounds, education levels and marriage statuses. They work in multiple industries, anywhere from teacher, exotic dancer, lawyer, barmaid, right across

This is What is Standing Between Your Inspiration and Your Action
Inspiration. (I’m not good enough. I can’t do it. It’s the wrong time. I’m not ready. I need more training. I don’t have enough information. I don’t have enough support. I can’t do this on my own. I don’t know how. Now doesn’t feel right. I don’t want to upset her. He won’t

Meditation is Not a Destination
Not being able to sit still and quiet the mind is one of the biggest complaints I hear from people new to meditation. Sitting down and closing one’s eyes quickly turns into an open invitation for incessant internal chatter, for reviewing the day, or mentally completing old conversations. As common as it is, it’s helpful

Here’s Why It’s Time to Disconnect From Other People
There has been a worldwide campaign to demonstrate how we are all in ‘this’ together, how we are all global citizens. We have been told by carefully engineered marketing campaigns that we need to act for one another, keep strangers safe, do our bit, our duty, behave as if we’re sick and stay home. This

Is This Why You Fear Your Own Darkness?
Why is it you fear the dark so much, the shadows, those things that move on the edge of your peripheral vision? Is it because you expect them to be waiting, to be stronger than you and all the faith you have fostered over the decades? Is it because you imagine yourself to be utterly

Stop Complaining About Your Marriage, Your Partner, Your Job, Being Broke. It’s Boring
Spare a thought for the friends who always listen to your same problems, over and over again.The problems you’re doing nothing to change.Spare a thought for the friends who constantly give you advice, that you never take.The friends who sit patiently whilst you rehash the same feelings and stories. For months, even years.It may
