Healing our pain, limiting beliefs, and unhealthy patterns requires that we continuously peel away the layers. Like the Turkish pastry baklava, with its fragile phyllo dough layers, the subtle layers of our patterns must be peeled away on a continuous basis. Often, we unconsciously create life experiences that reveal the next layer of a pattern to peel away, a process that occurs throughout our lives and is essential to our spiritual growth. This healthy clearing process is like skin sloughing off dead cells that accumulate and block the growth of new cells. Animals, birds, and plants also move through a regenerative clearing … [Read more...]
The Power of Choosing to Respond to Life Instead of React
It’s not always easy to respond when life comes at you especially when there’s so much chaos and unpredictability in the world. You may feel like you are powerless when it comes to health, financial, or relationship issues. Yet, you can take your power back by choosing to respond to life.

Transcending fear and negativity can be challenging when we are constantly bombarded with negative words, messages, and images.
