Disarm them with Love

We all get triggered. That doesn’t make us any less spiritual. In fact, I think you reach a milestone on the spiritual journey when you get conscious and curious about your triggers. You can see what’s actually going on inside of yourself. When a trigger arises, you’re not lost in a spiral of reactivity. You can say… Okay, something is happening right now.  And you get to choose how to respond from there. For me there’s […]

How I stay present when my clients are freaked out

Our explicit job in our businesses is to help, to serve, to support.

And if we’re […]

Transcend the Trap of Binary Thinking for Freedom & Growth

‘I’m whole, or I’m broken.’ ‘I’m good, or I’m bad.’ ‘I’m wealthy, or I’m broke.’ ‘I’m conscious, or I’m unconscious.’ Right? Binary thinking permeates our culture. As human beings, seekers, spiritual folks, healers – so much of what we are doing here on Earth is: Being confronted with oversimplified duality. Experiencing the contrast of what it feels like to be boxed into those restrictive options. Finding something else that isn’t either one of those things… […]
