Dancing With the Shadow Self

All of us in some point in our lives have struggled with our ego. Sometimes it seems I have talked the subject of the ego to death, but I feel compelled once again to share some advice on how to ‘manage’ it, we will say. You see, you can never destroy the ego or completely […]Read Post ›

The Art of Flow

Flow. It’s such an indescribable word, for it describes the motion of everything. Our Universe is constantly in motion, as it is composed of purely energy. That energy condenses into physical matter, but only when we, as observers, focus our energy of thought upon it. For most of us, at least at this point in […]Read Post ›

Living an Authentic Life

Most ancient wisdom teaches us about ‘living an authentic life.’ What does that mean? How do we do it? Should we strictly follow religious teachings? The truth is, no one can tell you how to achieve authenticity. Rather, living an authentic life means you are able to listen to your heart, do what you feel […]Read Post ›

Bringing Burning Man Home

By now, most people in the United States (and beyond) have heard about Burning Man. A ‘Utopian’ city, some have called it; while others label it as rich folk parading their money floats and recreational vehicles in the desert. Whatever you want to describe it as, we know this much: it is a gathering of […]Read Post ›

The Wisdom of Uncertainty

“In detachment lies the wisdom of uncertainty… in the wisdom of uncertainty lies the freedom from our past, from the known, which is the prison of past conditioning. And in our willingness to step into the unknown, the field of all possibilities, we surrender ourselves to the creative mind that orchestrates the dance of the universe.” […]Read Post ›

Changing Your Perspective On Life

Whoa. Big claim in the title alone, I know. I am not here to disappoint. I am writing this late at night after being woken up by ceaseless streaming ideas being beamed to me from… somewhere high above my bed, let’s just leave it at that. Anyway, what do I mean ‘changing your perspective on […]Read Post ›

Connecting the Dots

A recent theme in my life has been one of connection. Not just connection of people, but connection of events, themes, and different ways of being that I’ve experienced throughout my lifetime. Even beyond that, into the thoughts and experiences of past lives and potential alternate dimensions spawned from one fragment of my consciousness. When […]Read Post ›

The Balancing Act of Life

We’ve all heard the phrase “everything in moderation.” You could say that this is the theme for this post. Too much or too little of any one thing in life will bring us closer to death. Too much food for instance, and we put ourselves at risk of obesity and eventually heart disease. Too little […]Read Post ›

IT JUST DOESN’T MATTER

Sincerity Credibility Trust Love Understanding Patience Awareness Peace Do any of them matter? When greed, hate, animosity, jealousy, and anger all exist, why do we have anything else? Why not just let it all go to shit and let everyone kill themselves? Why do the good hearted persist? What do they have to prove besides […]Read Post ›

Release the Ego

One thing I have always struggled with is self-confidence. Throughout my life, I have gone through periods where I was filled with self-doubt, self-hatred, or even self-destruction. During my pre-teen years and as a teenager, I experienced bouts of depression and extreme loneliness. For a time I even developed an eating disorder and would intentionally […]Read Post ›
