The benefits of meditation most certainly can’t be under estimated.  It is one of the most potent tools we have in grounding a busy mind and calming the restless thoughts that we carry with us in life.  It is estimated that 2 - 500 million people meditate around the world, and its popularity continues to grow as we fall deeper into the Kali Yuga era of time, where it seems imperative that we find strategies to cope wi...

The connection between codependency and relationships is something I’ve contemplated for many years. Primarily due to my own experience in relationships being a codependent in the past, but also being a significant other to many codependent partners. If you’ve ever had the unique opportunity to be either of these individuals, than you know how heartbreaking it can be to love someone to the extent that you lose yoursel...

There are many elements built into the foundation of the spiritual journey that seem to slowly unravel over time.  Quickly we learn how imperative it is that we understand, not only the eternal nature of spirit, but the inner workings of how the mind and body are interwoven into the new age phenomenon we all know as spiritual evolution.  Often it’s the mystical things that draw our attention first. Spontaneous moments...

I’ve met many healers along my path in spirituality. Many in which reside within this extended family of practitioners attempting to bring a bit more softness, love and healing into our shared communities. In Los Angeles, it’s not uncommon for us to collaborate on workshops and healing events together, and in doing so cultivate lasting friendships with those we can share our journeys with. I met Shannon several years ...

It’s surreal to think that it’s been three years since the pandemic started. It’s even more disorienting to reminisce about how different the world was than in contrast to now; and although many have collectively adjusted to the changes in daily life, one thing is definitely certain; the pandemic changed the way in which we see the world and how we see ourselves.  Whether these changes came as a result of losing someo...

I’ve always had an affinity to quiet spaces in nature. Of course many people do, and for their own reasons. Though, have you ever felt the presence of a quiet space without the many distractions that tend to keep our attention bound to certain stories we have circulating in the mind at all times? 

Many people love being in nature for the simple fact that it provides us with a certain type of perspective....

Have you ever tried to invoke a feeling of love in something you knew in your heart you didn’t feel love for? Though, despite the conviction you’d feel over this absence of feeling, you’d still push forward in expressing a type of love that felt true to others, but not at all true to yourself.

I’ve always found it fascinating how we tend to embody two polar opposite and contradictory sides of ourselves a...

At the beginning of every spiritual journey, we often approach the idea of enlightenment with magical thinking. Our understanding of the process starts off as a type of grandiose experience only meant to be encountered by the most dedicated of sages.  When we think of enlightenment, we think of the Sri Ramana Maharshi’s, the Sidddhartha Gautama’s and the Paramahansa Yogananda’s of the world.  Typically they’re stories...

I get it, what's not to like or admire about affirmations, especially positive ones. I mean, why wouldn't we want to keep such a positive voice nearby in the instance that we fall short on any given day?  Especially when he have big dreams of living an abundant life full of love, joy and all the things these self help gurus say is possible when we begin believing in our own power to manifest the life we desire.  And w...

It’s always such a blessing to share space with thought leaders and light workers who carry a type of unfettered charisma for their practice. It places the energetics of the spiritual journey into a clear focus and allows us to get lost in the passion someone shares for love, life, magic, mysticism and healing.  That's certainly one thing “and there are many” things we absolutely loved about our guest Candice Rebollo.

Our mind is a phenomenal tool when used correctly.  Though, our interpretation of what we consider “correct” can vary depending on societal norms, cultural institutions and popular culture. Much of what we are taught about how to use our mind rests in our societies continued efforts in indoctrinating  its people to be contributing members to society through means of materialistic intelligence. It’s no surprise then th...

There are so many things we are equipped to feel through in life. Some trivial and some serious. We are often subject to situations or challenges that test the boundaries of what we are able to handle both emotionally and spiritually. We can lose our jobs, witness the ending of a relationship we’ve invested so much of ourselves into, we can find ourselves in heated conversations with those who share contrasting viewpoints on life. ...

My friend Val has always been a truly unique human being. With a heart of gold and the intelligence of a gifted scientist, she's always had this uncanny ability to bring people together through community, love and friendship.  We all have that circle of friends we would consider to be the movers and shakers of our lifetime. The ones that seem to be on a mission to bring beauty and love into the world. She always comes...

There aren’t many things in life that can help illuminate unconscious patterns in the way that relationships can.  They’re real, they’re unique and they often take precedence over just about everything that encapsulates the experience of being human.  Relationships, if healthy, can grant us access to the most beautiful  reservoirs of love and spiritual evolution. However, gaining access to the benefits of a beautiful ...

When we think of listening to someone or something, we often approach it in a fairly practical way.  There is sound and there is someone there to listen to it. Easy enough right? Yes and no.  At the most fundamental level we acknowledge how important it is to be able to hear, but what if the act of listening is something different? For example, when we are sitting with a friend and engaged in conversation, do we liste...

Have you ever found yourself lodged in a conversation with someone you would consider toxic? Whether in a committed relationship or with a friend or family member, we’ve all experienced what it's like to engage in verbal gymnastics with these types of people.  They often leave us drained, confused and wondering whether or not we are the crazy ones contributing to the madness.  Whatever the cause, typically the outcome...

Although I don't typically wax poetic about political issues openly, I feel that it is our responsibility as light workers to bring these issues of spiritual dogma to light.

For years, and often against our will, we are conditioned to believe that God is vengeful and that we are born sinners without the merit or justification for deserving that title; and the megalomaniacal ideologues tha...

There are several spiritual teachers that Jenn and I have grown very fond of through out the years.  Some have played integral roles in our evolution since the very beginning. All of which have illuminated a path forward into spiritual awakening. One beautiful thing to appreciate about spirituality is how diverse it can be in terms of proficiency.  Whether you’re dipping your toes into the water of enlightenment or ju...

When we think of hypnosis, we often think of televised sidewalk performers wandering the Hollywood streets looking for volunteers. You know, the ones willing to miraculously fall asleep within 60 seconds in the middle of a crowded subway station.  Thats not at all awkward right? Well, luckily there is a much deeper and more profound context for hypnosis that isn’t tied to entertainment. They call it Hypnotherapy, and ...
