Many of us avoid anger, believing it reflects poorly on our character. And though this emotion can cause physical and emotional pain, it can also be a worthy ally. It shows up to tell us when a circumstance isn’t honoring our spirit. It asks us to set new,...

Learning about being happy in life is often like finding our way through a maze. As often as not, our childhood didn’t give us a compass. Many of our impressions and beliefs about ourselves were born when we felt powerless. We assumed adults were all-knowing and...

In our every-day-lives, we often find ourselves walking a million miles around old beliefs that no longer serve us. Deeply embedded, they are so familiar we no longer recognize that we can question them. See them from a new perspective. Change them. They are so solid,...

In the ordinary events of childhood, our mind protects us when we encounter emotional trauma. That jolt, when looked at through the lens of our adult years, is often dismissed because it feels like it shouldn’t have been such a big deal. But the wound continues to...

Maybe you’re like me. You’ve tried manifesting a change in your life by focusing on your desire. You see the details. You dream it, feel it, and connect to it. And, over time, you start believing it just isn’t going to happen. You might feel more powerless than ever...

" Your obstacles are your school teacher – it’s a learning experience One of the things my wife has taught me is to reframe the tough times and trauma I have faced in my life.  To view each of them as a classroom and to learn the lessons I could from them to...

It’s a challenge to simply sit. So much easier to check emails, call a friend, or get going on this day’s plans. Life has taught me that if I’m not doing something... I’m doing nothing. Experience keeps challenging that old belief. When I wake up for the 4:00 a.m....

“This is your life. Do what you love, and do it often. If you don’t like something, change it. If you are looking for love, start doing things you love. Open your mind, arms, and heart to new things. Get lost, so you can find yourself. Live your dream. Wear your...

It's oh-so-common and very understandable that most of us hesitate to sail into new waters. We want change as long as it doesn't change our lives. Quantum Thinking assures us we get to tweak our energy shift each step of the way. It can be a gentle experience, more...
