“We need to be grounded before we can fly.” Mastery – of anything – is not an accident. It’s deliberate. It’s the daily decision to create discipline, to follow positive habits, to establish roots and then pursue a path. Unless we get grounded, every day, we submit our lives to circumstance. Why submit to circumstance? The post Why submit to circumstance? appeared first on Healthy Mind Heart Body.

Quotes of Wisdom: Leon Blum on Man’s Use of Universal Wisdom
The human race had the wisdom to create science and art; why should it not be capable to create a world of justice, brotherliness and peace? The human race has produced Plato, Homer, Shakespeare, and Hugo, Michelangelo and Beethoven, Pascal and Newton, all these human heroes whose genius is only the contact with the fundamental … Related posts: 2012 – End of the World or the End of Ignorance?

Why stay small?
“Impossible is just a big word thrown around by small men who find it easier to live in the world they’ve been given than to explore the power they have to change it.” – Muhammad Ali You have the power to not only change your world, but to, in some way, change the world. Will you explore that power? Or will you just claim impossibility, stay small, and sit comfortably in the midst of mediocrity? The post Why stay small? appeared first on Healthy Mind Heart Body.
Spiritual Masters
I felt like writing about spiritual masters to help those of you who are truly dedicated to your spiritual paths to understand those beings and how they are in this world. A spiritual master truly is someone who has stepped out of the confines and attachments of this world. Their interests in the mundane concerns that are thought to be essential (romance, making money, having a great social network, etc.) are few. Their interests in the truly mundane things about what is nourishing, what is restful, what is real…

Working for a Bigger Purpose
This was a newsletter I wrote a few years ago that inspired me to write The Seed. I think it’s such an important message and we have so many new readers I wanted to share it again. What if work wasn’t just work? What if work was a vehicle to live and share a bigger purpose? I believe there’s flawed perception in our society that in order to live a life of purpose we have to leave our jobs and go solve world hunger, feed the homeless, move to Africa or start a charity. While …
Today is tomorrow’s yesterday
“The past is a zero indicator of what you need to do today.” Past performance – good or bad – does not guarantee your future state, does not guarantee your future outcomes. Circumstances change, the background of your life is in constant flux. You can resist adapting, you can refuse to change, but if you stand firmly planted where you’ve been, you’ll never get to where you
Don’t Let Fear Get In Your Way
It is a rare person who lives without fearful feelings of one kind or another. You may be afraid of heights, or spiders, or new situations, or rejection. Whatever your fears may be, there are basically two ways of dealing with them. The first is to let those fears create boundaries beyond which you can’t move or grow. The second is to face your fears head-on and allow them to become opportunities to expand your life. Which approach do you tend to use? We should also acknowledge the fact that being afraid is not always a bad thing. There are obviously some things that we should be …
Dissolving Into Pure Consciousness
Dissolving into pure consciousness is a fun topic to talk about because it is very different than what most people think it is. Dissolving into this space of "is-ness" is not about going some place. Rather, it's about knowing in the fullness of you that you've never left it, never been apart from it. That…

Wisdom Books: The Sane Society by Erich Fromm
Following the publication of the seminal Fear of Freedom, Erich Fromm applied his unique vision to a critique of contemporary capitalism in The Sane Society. Where the former dealt with man’s historic inability to come to terms with his sense of isolation, and the dangers to which this can lead, The Sane Society took his … Related posts: Enlightening Talks: Rollo May – The Human Dilemma Wisdom Books: The Wisdom of Life and Counsels and Maxims by Arthur Schopenhauer Wisdom

How Meditation Got Easier for Me
I asked my student, Brandy, to talk about how meditation has gotten easier for her because I know that many of you struggle to sit down and be with all the mental racket. I always like to remind people that meditation isn't about achieving a state of awareness, but in letting go of

Living By A Code – Its not just a knights tale.
So I’m feeling a little dismayed this morning. I know I’m not the first to feel that way? It’s not about being upset at any of my family or friends, we’re fine, its more about our world. The emotional state of our society. So not to make this political, I won’t elaborate on the crises in our country(or should I say the politicians.) I’ll keep it to how our social structure makes us feel. You might feel this…

Brain uses sleep to wash away waste toxins
The brain uses sleep to wash away the waste toxins built up during a hard day’s thinking. Brain cells shrink during sleep to open up the gaps between neurons and allow fluid to wash the brain clean. “The brain only has limited energy at its disposal and it appears that it must choose between two different functional states &#
Personal Power and the Magic of Self-Appointment
From a young age, you are appointed. Appointed to what and by whom? By your parents as “old enough to stay home alone.” By your institutions as “educated enough to enter the full time work force.” By your employers as “responsible enough for a promotion.” Ask yourself these 2 important questions: 1) Have you become mentally conditioned by all the external appointments? 2) Have…
Spirituality Webinar: Embracing Your Shadow
One of my students requested a webinar about embracing the shadow, so in honor of that request, here's my announcement for my next spirituality webinar about just that topic.It should be mentioned that the shadow (at least as I'm defining it) is simply that which is ignored, avoided, or repressed. Much of the time, people have left some of their greatest gifts and true light-full Self in the dark, and often times, it is their light and love that is most difficult aspects of themselves to reclaim. As a result, it's not all dark trauma and hateful thoughts hiding out back there (although there is often some of that as well). But we all…
