Our current worldview is as if we are backseat drivers, at best driving next to the driver.
All we can do is
but ultimately we feel we have nothing to say in the matter of where this life is going. That is our current view of the world.

What pulls you out of your equilibrium? What makes you so angry that you can’t control yourself?
One of my students has fits of anger. Her life is going from anger to anger, with no chance for a break.
Now, I could be condescending, I could be unsympathetic, or helpful and compassionate. But I find it more beneficial for everyone involved, including you, if I share with you what I have done.
As a rule, I use my own life, my own experiences, as a laboratory, a test laboratory, to shed light to what happens to people when they are angry, resistant, unwilling, or any one of the frequent ways of being. Continue reading “What makes you so angry that you can’t control yourself?”

Let’s get some clarity, shall we?
On longevity, or life expectancy…
There are all kinds of theories and hypotheses about the life expectancy of humans.
What do we know?

You Can’t Get Enough Of What You Don’t WantWarning: this is a very advanced article. You should probably start with the easier ones if you are here for the first time. OK?
An interesting glitch in the nature of reality is that our driving desire, the answer to our dreams, the one thing that would seem to fix our complaints doesn’t fix anything.
We could say that you can’t fix what’s not broken. and actually it would be a very astute remark.
But if that is the case, that the thing we are trying to fix isn’t broken, why does it seem that, what we most complain about not having, would fix it?

Most things are only visible in hindsight.Good or bad things equally. Often when you stop…
I would have never know how much I needed regular adjustments without taking a long break.
Going there every week, kind of poo-pooing the individual experiences is what it’s taken me to become virtually pain free. I shared it with the chiropractor, because I thought that it is a good idea for his marketing: after all most people do not go to chiropractors, because they can’t even imagine that it can help… or they go when they are really broken.

I had a lovely person yesterday on my strategy call. The call was fun with a lot of real laughter, until the topic of spirituality came up. Then it became hellishly painful.
The issue is: what is spirituality? How you view spirituality will have a lot (maybe everything!) to do with everything you do in life, and ultimately will determine to what degree you’ll become all you can become.

It takes exactly as much energy to live a shitty life, a mundane life, as to live a good life.It’s true, it is different energy, more purposeful, but energy is energy.
The only difference is: a shitty life is on automatic. The good life is not.

Here is MY own opinion, before I share what Redditors say…
It is easier to find a ‘good person’ nowadays than a good company. Companies want to tell their users, their customers what they should want… and as I am saying that, I am not an exception either.
My current issue with my blog… that the creators (wordpress) want me to think like them, work like them, whether I want to or not is infuriating. There is no ‘we’. There is me vs all the others… antagonism. OK, rant over… here is what Redditors have to say: Continue reading “Let’s see what Redditors say is a good person?”

I had the most potent medicine served to me today in the form of two comments on my site. I got served what I regularly serve… unkindness.
I always thought that unkindness is a how… but maybe there is more to it.
Maybe unkindness is speaking, unkindness is doing from what you know.
And if what you know doesn’t agree with what’s in front of you, then you say whatever you say, and it’s unkind. Inconsiderate. Uncaring. Continue reading “A version of confrontation therapy… unkindness”

Back in, I think, 2011 I was friends with some people who swore that this Indian guru was a real healer. That his energies healed animals, trees, and people…
So I signed up to a group healing call. It was $50 per call if you subscribed.
The call was 177 minutes commercial, and 3 minutes energy transmission.
By that time I was already an energy practitioner. I also knew I was an empath. And my vibration was already high. Continue reading “Shall I offer group energy healing sessions? Your opinion?”
