It is impossible to go through life without dealing with some type of hardship. In fact, most of us will have several unexpected curbs to deal with. Fortunately, there are several things that you can do in order to regain your peace of mind when you go through a hard time.

Get Help

You may feel as though you are alone when you are in a dark time. That is why it is important for you to have someone you can talk to. Many people find that it is beneficial for them to talk to…

how many souls lay blinded by that creed

stuck on a rock that's lost in the vastness

fatherless child of mother randomness

the underlying view that fosters greed

satisfied by the laws of mechanics

kindergarten of logic and reason

unfit for the tests of intuition

barred from the master class in holistics

unprepared to see past material

as if fearing fatal delirium

through knowledge of concerns spiritual

yet truth is no stranger to…

i can recall the day when the world fell

and i could only watch in disbelief

as people blamed each other for their grief

before hiding back each inside their shell

from there we edged ever closer to hell

dying nature, fires, foul climes above

divided souls all longing for some love

while minds dreaded for them would toll the bell

and now a plague warns us with its dark chimes

to see we're tied, us threads of the same rope

against which…

as i sit on the floor and bow my head

i wonder why my path has led me here

for which purpose must i be rid of fear

that lies in store for me somewhere ahead

no way could i the turns have all foreseen

nor prayed for all of life's given blessings

for the angels would not reveal their wings

until after the time they could be seen

is it a door i hear, a voice, a pace

or only an echo, a whim, a wraith

a breeze, a thought, a threat without a…

          Are we falling short of the lessons we could be learning in the wake of the coronavirus pandemic?  Why are so many intelligent, sophisticated individuals running to the stores to hoard the last of the toilet paper or begging for scientists to come up with a vaccine?  It seems as though we have lost sight in the power we have as individuals to heal.  It is natural to be afraid and have our egos kick in when we feel our…

now that the truth is out

and edges the windup

say did you really doubt

of where you would end up

just right there where you are

all alone in the night

feeling more fraud than star

and really not that bright

not completely grownup

more bewildered than fine

but still the wait is up

time to come forth and shine

seems you blew your thirties

in healing from your teens

in bending to worries

and in blaming your…

was it not all written

in the divine memoirs

on the nightly heaven

as a pattern of stars

that the worst could happen

at the perfect hour

to rescue the fallen

from haughtiness dour

so that they could in turn

save from the bonfire

their fellow men who burn

in confusion dire

was it not all written

well ahead of the time

in words aptly chosen

metered and set to rhyme

that there's no simple way

to…

Spiritual Means living Boldly with an Open Heart

We see a lot of metaphysical friends posting on social media uplifting advice about staying positive and focusing only on "good' during these trying Covid-19 times. They're inspired by the "law of attraction". Let's call it for what it is, selective focusing.

Selective focusing is a wonderful mental discipline. But not when it is dualistic (judging good or bad), innately self-serving (striving for a…

Canada is reeling over Covid-19

Right now, in the midst of the global pandemic, people around the world are feeling frightened, helpless and out of control. We have no idea what’s coming, whether on a personal, familial, economic or societal level. Here in Canada, this is a relatively new and unpleasant experience for most of us.

In our well-to-do first world country that prides itself on a robust social welfare system, many of us assume that life here includes a good measure…

We are all now experiencing a situation we would never hope to witness on the Earth. People all over the world are living through a pandemic, many forced to quarantine themselves, watch from the inside looking out. Life as we all knew it will never be the same again. What this crisis has taught us this far is that there really are incredible humans with beautiful hearts who care and want…

Abstract.....Its time to examine the psychology behind the art. What drives us to art making and why do we create it in the first place? Is it insanity of our own minds, the pain we are struggling with everyday that pushes us to hold the painting brush or a pen? What comes along this path of artistry? Can this become the pathway to healing?

Abstract: Corruption is thought of as part of human nature. But what if we change that by acknowledging that corruption starts on the inside?  What if we admit our own corruption? What if we acknowledge how we hide our corruption, making up excuses to justify it? Discovering how addictive societies promote corruption at a very young age. How we try to gain personal power by lying and cultivating certain manipulative behaviors. Deciding to become part of the…

Abstract...Essentially Ki and Chi are the same things. When the energy gets blocked, we are reduced to a static position. Our flow is hindered, as we are going no where. With the development of and running of this energy, we shift from static to a dynamic position and reflexology has a significant role to play in the chi flow. It begins with a comparative analysis, only to find the Ki and chi are essentially the same.…

On January 27, 2019, my partner and father to our daughter left our house to meet up with work associates.  He was going to meet them downtown Sydney for a few drinks,  stay downtown for the night and be home the next day for dinner.  He never made it home.  Instead two armed guards came to my house 7 am the next…

Abstract:

The Coronavirus has triggered the setting off of an alarm by our ego whose sole purpose is to protect us and ensure our survival—both daily and mortal. This alarm in turn has resulted in anxiety, fear, and stress related thoughts, feelings, and behaviors, which differ from person to person. For those experiencing greater difficulty there is a need to quell the alarm and their symptoms by giving to ego what it needs from you and which it cannot give to…

When we are faced with stressful, threatening or annoying situations, it is easy to give in to our emotions. Instead of obsessing about what can or cannot happen – it is important to listen to what’s inside our Heart. We can relate to our Heart as the core of our existence, described also as our “pure inner being”.

Survival fears, fear of getting hurt, fear of loneliness, and continuous stress and nervous tension are…

what was there left to do

standing at the summit

but to reach for the sky

up above infinite

what was there left to do

at the edge of the land

but to keep on going

and defy gravity

what was there left to do

at the end of the road

but to invent a bridge

onto a higher world

what was there left to do

at the death of a hope

but welcome the visit

of the ghost of a chance

what was…

It is now very clear to me that there is a centuries old battle taking place here on Earth: the war between love and fear; truth and lies. The human mind so often remains a victim of fear while the heart fights endlessly and tirelessly at the battle lines to annihilate all lies thrown into the collective human psyche. We stand poised at a critical turning point in our human and spiritual evolution: A fissure cuts through our human reality like a fault line, prudently reminding us of…

For many of us, meditation not be…

Many never thought we would live through such strange times of global pandemic, and yet now that we are here, we may find ourselves engaged in behaviors of panic. Our actions are not a result of desperation, but genetic conditioning, triggered by ancestral, or soul crisis. We can heal these pains through meditation, documenting what arises and analyzing our deep-seated fears. Once we can identify our experiences, we can monitor our daily responses and have acceptance for others on their…
