When You Realize There is No Secret to Success

There is no “Definitive Guide to Optimum Health.” No “Key to Finding Your Soul Mate.” No “3 Simple Things That You Can Do To Go From Living In a Porta-Potty On Top Of a Garbage Dump To Millionaire in Under 6 Months.” And there is certainly no "Secret To Success." Because if ANY OF THIS were true … EVEN SLIGHTLY TRUE … Then a tsunami of HEALING, and SUCCESS and WEALTH and SOUL-PARTNERSHIPS would have already been generated by hundreds of thousands of people worldwide in verifiably repeatable ways. And most of all, we would have heard about it by now. But we haven't. Because it's not true. And deep down we know it. But most of us still don’t...

What To Do When The Reasons You're Stuck Are Unconscious

I was co-facilitating a group a few years ago when a woman came in who was stuck in a job that she hated and wanted desperately to leave. Within several minutes I knew that she was fighting an unconscious trauma from her past. But I could also tell that she was not ready to go there. Over the course of several weeks I watched other members of the group all attempt to coach her out of her fear so that she could transition into the life she really wanted. As people spoke, she nodded her head, said she understood, went back and forth, gained hope, lost it, and then fell back into offering excuses for why she couldn’t quit. From...

Conscious Crying - Upgrade Your Body's Original Way of Healing

Crying? We don’t cry here. Crying is taboo. Because if we cry, we’re weak. And if we’re weak, then we’re likely to die. And if we’re likely to die then no one will ever want to be associated with us because even being in proximity to us will threaten their survival too. And so if we cry we will be ostracized, isolated, and left for dead. And so we don’t cry. Instead we repress, we anesthetize, we push down the emotions like an ostrich with its head in the sand hoping that because we ignore the pain and grief and sadness within us it will never have any effect over us. Like an oncoming train we magically assume that ignoring...

Shining Light on the Shadow of Male Masturbation

This article was first published in Common Ground Magazine in February 2015, and speaks to a challenge that I myself faced head on in my mid 20s. It took me until my mid 30s, almost ten years later, to gain enough distance from that journey, and the healing that it required, for me to feel that I could write about it with the appropriate clarity, humor, and care necessary for a topic that many men struggle with to this day, through no fault of their own. For anyone who is not a man (or has never been a man) I invite you to read on with an open, compassionate mind.

On Weapons of Mass Destruction

Welcome to being human. Evolution’s most recent creation. You have been designed to exert maximum devastation. Your thoughts, emotions, words and actions are the most advanced delivery systems that have ever been seen in cosmic production. But they have been installed with a single significant safety precaution. Your every shot fired travels equally in the opposite direction. That’s right, you are a carpet bomb that cannot escape your own napalm, America and the VietCong, Hiroshima and the Atom Bomb. Black, white, rich, poor, Christianity, Judaism, Atheism and Islam. Now look at the violence in the world and tell me if you see haters, hatred or simply a pain within … your self. Look closer. What is it? Be honest. You...
