How to Deal With Fear - When Life Shakes Us to the Core

Fear is like a snake’s venomous bite that paralyzes and shuts down the necessary organs required for survival.

Lizard Energy - Learning to Be Still With Awareness

Yesterday, Patty and I saw a beautiful lizard outside near our stairs.

Ancient Alchemy - Transforming Sadness into Joy

Creative Inspiration - The Divine Artist

When you are in the consciousness of your true nature, there is not even a hairbreadth of distance between you and creative inspiration. It is closer to you than breath and heartbeat.
