In a world of plastic surgery, photoshop and high-tech visual enhancements it's difficult to be happy with our own imperfections. Body image is easily beaten down by external forces, yet it is created by our internal dialogue. How can we get to that internal dialogue to clean it up so that the competition in the world around us has no power to affect how we feel about ourselves?

Learning to Love Your Body

I'm sure you've heard that all healing should be free if you are in the "healer" community. This presents quite the conundrum when one wants to continue to do this kind of service work in the world. What's the right answer?

Should Healers Work for Free?

The Art of Attention: Interview with Elena Brower

For some of us our "I can't" stories rule our lives, dictating our actions from a place of fear or inhibition. What are those stories doing to the body? How is it that they are so easily accessed in the mind? How can we move through our "I can't" stories together?

Your story of "I can't"

All of our moments of self-doubt, self-sabotage, and insecurity can make us feel like frauds or unworthy of life's gifts. But the shadows of these things are amazing teachers and can be used as fuel for deeper growth. 

Are We All Just Frauds?

When circumstances beyond our control threaten our sense of empowerment it's easy to become stressed and go into limbic functioning. The key to navigating things beyond our control with grace and ease is a function of our prefrontal cortex. So how do we move into that space in the midst of stress?

Moving into Possibility when Life Throws you Crap

We all like to think we get a clean slate when the year changes at midnight. We make goals and hope to see things differently. But if we knew a bit more about the neural mechanisms behind goal setting and our sense or rewards, we might approach our resolutions with a bit more strategy, ensuring our success rather than setting ourselves up for disappointment..

It's a fine line between dissociation and the reprieve that practices like meditation offer. This is not to say meditation or any spiritual practice is designed to do that. But many of us can claim user error and perhaps admit that we escape life's pain but running to one of these noble practices, yet never use the practice to change anything beyond the cushion. So when exactly is meditation a spiritual bypass?

Is Meditation Just Another Spiritual Bypass?

We all know that we are supposed to "give" to be good people. This is a high expectation. So many of us fall into giving and service so that we gain validation or a reputation. This kind of giving is exhausting. But what happens when we give from a place of fullness? How do we even know the difference?

Acts of Service - The Martyr or the Altruist

We easily put credibility into our ability to report what we see. But seeing anything is a subjective experience. It's easier miss pieces of our experience simply because we have not given ourselves permission to see them. What happens when we give ourselves permission?

Do We Believe What We See, or Do we See What We Believe?

We've heard and read many catchy stories of the "love molecule" and how oxytocin promotes social bonding. But what we don't hear often is that extreme bonding also creates judgment, racism and ethnocentrism. 

The Oxytocin Paradox

We all have our own reasons for eating the way we do. For some it's ethical choices, moral choices, allergy choices, etc. But one thing I learned growing up on a Sicilian staple diet is that sugars contributed to my body's illness and my mind's negativity. Let's discuss which sugars are supportive and which contribute to cellular and mind stress.
