The Lower Self voices that invite us to hopelessness and despair are not telling the truth. The truth is we can tear down our walls and begin building bridges. What will your bridge look like?

Standing at the Crossroads of Spirituality and Politics
I have struggled with how and whether to express my political views –or not– here on this blog.
Will I alienate or offend someone? Is there a place for politics on a spiritual blog? Am I overreacting to the emotional climate of the current political landscape? How can I offer something inspirational and hopeful when much of the time I feel frightened and hopeless? This is what I know for sure…

I’m Traveling to Standing Rock. Won’t You Stand With Me?

The Fear Beneath the Fun
Halloween is a fun time to dress up in scary costumes, collecting candy and enjoying the pseudo-comfort of laughing at and making fun of our fears and our darkness. As if they didn’t really exist.
Underneath the fun and celebration, what we most deeply fear is that we are these skeletons, these demons, these ghosts. We fear that we are just an empty shell of bones, the overwhelming cruelty and evil of our hidden demons, or a collection of thoughts that are dissociated and disconnected from our bodies.
