Being connected
spiritual principles made practical's podcast
We all want deeper connections. What we benefit from knowing is that the source of the deeper connections we seek is a deeper connection with ourself. When we're deeply connected to ourself, we're deeply connected to everyone else. For example, if I'm deeply accepting and understanding of myself, confident of who I am, I can more easily open up to others and provide an accepting environment for them to open up to me, resulting in a deeper connection. We grow our connection to ourself by listening to ourself. By listening to our thoughts we become more connected...

Transitioning from identifying ourself as being separate to identifying as being ONE
spiritual principles made practical's podcast
The more we relate to seeing everyone as a projection of ourself, the more we relate to being ONE and the less separate we feel. There is love, joy, flow, inspiration and everything good being experienced when we are experiencing being ONE. There is no suffering. The way to be more in the zone, experiencing more of being ONE, more conscious of the present moment is to be conscious of when we're not in that state. My experience is that by accepting I am identifying with being an individual and all the suffering that comes with that, the more that acceptance throws me out of...

Seeing ourself in others
spiritual principles made practical's podcast
Our perception of others is a projection of ourself. We can only recognize in others what we have in ourself. Otherwise we could not relate to or identify with others. I have many friends who take responsibility for creating the most loving, joyfull and happy life they can. That's me too. At times I see people struggling. I can relate to that as well. The more I accept struggling, the more that acceptance heals it in both me and others. Instead of seeing then as struggling I see their determination to create a better life in action. The more we...

Empathetic Healing
spiritual principles made practical's podcast
The more I learn, understand and relate to what it means to be ONE with all that exists, the more I understand the role empathetic healing can play in increasing my acceptance of being ONE. All that I perceive is a projection of myself. That includes other people in my life. They are a projection of me. This gives me great power. If someone is suffering and I can relate to that suffering within me, I can heal it in me through acceptance. Once that suffering is healed within me, I no longer experience that "other person" as suffering. That is what is...

What it means to be myself
spiritual principles made practical's podcast
For decades I've been sharing and resonating with the thought that "being myself is my best chance at success". This podcast digs into a greater understanding and acceptance of what it means to be myself. Much of what being myself includes is trusting and respecting and acting on what I know to be true. For example, I know the most efficient way forward is to have a more complete acceptance of what is true right now. I know that I have the capacity to experience all the positive emotions I desire independent of other people. I know that my perception of...

How perspectives fit together
spiritual principles made practical's podcast
I awoke wanting to have a greater acceptance and understanding of how the various perspectives I experience fit together. In response, I asked that question in meditation and here's what I got... The stress in my life comes from giving more creedence to what other people say works than trusting what I've proven works for me. I've gotten jobs that were the perfect jobs for me that I didn't apply for and didn't realize at the time were the perfect jobs for me. In every case I got those jobs by being myself, not trying to be what I thought the employer wanted. When I was...

Making every day fresh and new
spiritual principles made practical's podcast
If we're growing spiritually, growing in our self acceptance, then every day is new. If it's not, it's a sign there is growth available to us. We can access that growth by being more focused in the present moment, more conscious of the thoughts in our mind, more aware of how our body is at this moment, or any other way that creates a focus in the present moment. We all have unconsious thoughts that impact our life. I offer thought coaching to move thoughts from the unconscious to the conscious. When we are aware of a thought, we have the opportunity to choose to...

Detachment
spiritual principles made practical's podcast
Being attached to physical world outcomes doesn't produce the emotional benefits I desire. Only internal acceptance of the wholeness I am can give me the conscious experience of the love, joy, wisdom, energy, compassion and powerf I desire. Being increasingly focused internally allows me to be more detached to physical world circumstances. For example, accepting that I whole and complete as I am allows me to act with less concern about how I'll be perceived by others. This greater detachment allows me to take action more freely because I'm not counting on others outside...

Increasing my internal focus
spiritual principles made practical's podcast
The more I focus inernally, the greater is my self acceptance. The greater my self acceptance, the more coscious choice I have over what and how I create. We are always creating. The greater our internal acceptance, the more we ceate what we consciously choose to create. The less aware we are of the thoughts in our mind, our freedom to choose which thoughts we act on, the impact thoughts both conscious and denied have in our life, the less control we have on the life we create for ourselves. I offer thought coaching to assist people in being more conscious of...

Physical aspects of spiritual healing
spiritual principles made practical's podcast
Almost all of us have had incorrect thoughts through out our life. Those inaccurate thoughts eventually create a physical problem. As we accept our thoughts and realize which are true and which are false, we release the disease that the false thoughts have created. I recorded this podcast because I am experiencing alot of lactic acid in my muscles even when I'm not exercising. I was concerned that there might be an underlying physical problem causing that. As I put myself in a centerd state in recording the podcast, I became increasingly confident that the lactic...
info_outlineLike depression, dificulty breathing is a sign that more wisdodm and solutions are available for us to become aware of. Today, I woke up with difficulty breathing. I slowed down and had the thought that I'd planned to write an introduction to a Zoom seminar I'm going to lead this morning. I sat down and the introduction flowed naturally onto the paper. I was in the flow. After I finished the introduction, I realized my breathing had returned to normal.
I find it very useful to recognize that negative thoughts and the emotions they create are reminders there are uplifting thoughts ready to be acknowledged and acted upon. All I need to is to accept the existence of the negative thoughts while choosing not to act on them. Invariably, this process drains the negative thoughts of their power and makes room for positive thoughts to act on.
I offer thought coaching to help people become increasingly conscious of their thoughts and the freedom that exists to choose which thoughts to act on and which thoughts to choose not to act on.
