Spirituality

The last time you intended to clean out a closet, get back in the gym, or reach out to an old friend but did not get it done, what was the reason you told yourself about why this wasn’t the right time to do it?  Often we find that we use or even create big and small distractions that keep us from doing […]

Many people exist in an unconscious, disempowered fog of passive expectation –Waiting for the ideal relationship, the right moment, a divine inspiration, somebody else to step forward or for that perfect set of circumstances to magically manifest to inspire them to finally take authentic, sincere and honest steps towards a desired endeavor. People have been conditioned to be idle spectators of their own lives, […]

We all have times when we find ourselves without anyone else around, and it is our perception that determines if at those times we feel grateful and fulfilled, or lonely.  Some time alone can provide a wonderful opportunity for self-reflection and deepening self-insight, but it can be uncomfortable if that silence and quiet is perceived as loneliness or as rejection by others.  How […]

  We often tell the inspiring stories of our guests, their ability to find new and better ways to do things, and to overcome challenges in their lives.  This week we turn the tables on the idea of stories, and we look closer at the stories we tell ourselves.  These stories are often our own creation, not based in real facts, and are […]

The visionary human endeavor to build a more evolved society through innovation, progress and growth has also birthed an unfortunate, rampant obsession that keeps the modern world engrossed in a profound state of addiction. It’s this shadow side of cultural progress that blindly worships this unquenchable desire to maintain, enhance and exceed its ongoing experience and definition of “comfort” at all costs. All too […]

When asked, I have heard many people in our modern culture often describe themselves as being “spiritual.” What does that actually mean? In many cases, this expression has been adapted into a pop-culture trend which now simply refers to a “spiritual person” as being something other than a “religious person.”  The same phrase is also often used to classify a compartmentalized “spiritual” activity, behavior, […]

Multiple sources of research have shown the many benefits of meditation, but it can be overwhelming to know how to begin to incorporate it into your daily life.  Like any regular habit or practice, beginning with small steps can get you started, and then you can customize your meditation to what works for you.  As we “Learn from the Experts”, we turn to a guest […]

You are encouraged to believe in the seeming necessity of being busy in order to get ahead in today’s fast-paced world. Many proclaim “there is not enough time in the day to get everything done…” Increasingly absurd demands for the sake of efficiency are all being squeezed into already unmanageable schedules. It is becoming apparent that one of the most valuable commodities of the […]

This week is the first in a series of shows focusing on the pervasive addiction to “busy-ness” that so many of us experience.  Between our work, parenting, volunteer and personal obligations, the pace of life can be fast and chaotic.  How can we make sure that we are doing our best to be aware of our relationship to our busy schedule, and how can […]

(Which Teacher is Right For me?) If you speak to anyone who has attained a high level of mastery in their chosen field of study they will often make reference to their inspiration, influences and teachers that guided them on their own journey of exploration. During my process and still today, I hold a deep respect for the sacred tradition of this intimate relationship […]

Attachment is a concept that is talked about often as part of many discussions about emotional and spiritual healing, and in personal growth.  Markus shares his perspective on what attachment is, how it compares to detachment and non-attachment, and when we know that have a healthy or not-healthy relationship to it.

  This week we begin a series of discussions focused on our Emotions, the value in becoming aware of them and the role they play in our lives, and the impact they can have on all aspects of our being.  Understanding our emotions and how they drive our behavior can be a powerful tool to addressing areas of stress and anxiety.
