Thanks, But No Thanks: A Nonconformist’s Thanksgiving Plans

Along the coastline of Cape of Good Hope

Lots of people embrace or condone dysfunctional, abusive family relationships; misogynistic, homophobic, racist, dishonest religions; and unhappy, unfulfilling marriages to manage some kind of gathering of sorts for Thanksgiving. Just a little denial for the holidays. After all, it’s for the sake of belonging.

When Only a Good Fight Will Do

Regal, Relaxed, and Ready . . .

The great leaders of history all had the courage to fight for what is right. The foundation of a good fight is love and courage, strength and goodness. When these are the motivators behind a fight, success is inevitable.

The Untold Story Behind Being Late

In a profound and deeply moving way, I learned as a healer that trauma does get stuck in our lives and end up repeating itself in symbolic ways through our actions and choices.

I explore what Stephen Harrod Buhner refers to as “the most important thing in life” in his amazing book Ensouling Language, On the Art of Nonfiction and the Writer’s Life.  He calls it “the invisibles.”  What does he mean by the invisibles?

Lately, I’ve been doing some exciting, cutting-edge energy work that helps patients to receive parts of Life Energy (states of being) that they were unable to fully receive before, e.g. love, forgiveness, or joy.

Sometimes, people who hurt others use victimhood as an excuse (an entitlement) to continue their racism, discrimination, or persecution of others. And sometimes, politicians use that moral weakness for their own political purposes.

Angels, Demons, a Boy, and a Psychiatrist

Growth from the paths we choose

I share a story about one of the most spiritual experiences I’ve ever had. It involved some angels, demons, a boy, and myself, during a psychiatry session. It was a “group therapy” session that taught me many profound lessons I have never forgotten.

Introducing the Empower Energy Technique

Empower yourself through Life Energy

I’ve been applying this approach in various settings, and it works great! People notice a shift and like its positive, empowering influence. I hope you’ll give it a try.

The Curious Case of the Tangled Necklaces

A place for discovery beneath the tangled setting

Faith in the unseen is so hard. I wish I were like Barbara Brennan or Adam McLeod who can see people’s energy fields. But I can’t. So, through different experiences, I have to learn how energy can be shifted and transformed through intention and let faith lead the way.
