One of the most heartbreaking experiences one can feel as a human being is rejection or feeling unloved.

No matter our age, ethnicity, or skin color; the family we grew up with; the religion, culture, or political party we belong to; or any other part we identify with, without exception, we all need to be treated with love, kindness, and compassion. 

But what happens when that is not the case? When in spite of your good intentions and trying to do your best, after sharing your unconditional lo...

“Whenever you find yourself on the side of the majority, it is time to pause and reflect.”

— Mark Twain

To say the least, 2020 has been a year full of challenges. But as the year comes to a close, we may be reflecting on how we can move into 2021 with more meaning and more wholeness. Some of the questions I’m asking myself these days are: How has 2020 affected and changed my life? What did I learn during these challenging times? What should I change in me to overcome all the challenges I went ...

"Often, it's the deepest pain which empowers you to grow into your highest self."

— Karen Salmansohn 

Many of us are again in lockdown and forced to close our now-struggling businesses once more, some of us having lost our jobs and lifestyles, in a time when we feel more divided than ever. When discord in the political world in so many of our nations seems disconnected from the purpose of caring for and uniting people, and when we are bombarded with misinformation and are confined not only to ...

“Some might say: ‘Fragmentation of cities, religions, political systems, conflicts in the form of wars, general violence, fratricide, etc., are the reality. Wholeness is only an ideal, toward which we should perhaps strive.’ But this is not what is being said here. Rather, what should be said is that wholeness is what is real, and that fragmentation is the response of this whole to man’s action, guided by illusory perception, which is shaped by fragmentary thought.”

—David Bohm

These are diffi...

“Man’s mind stretched to a new idea, never goes back to its original dimension.”

—Oliver Wendell Holmes

 Accept it or not, recent events show that we are more separated than ever.

And how can that not be the case if we’re resonant beings? We resonate with all the energetic vibrations we have been and continually are exposed to.

 The world we perceive as material and immaterial is, subatomically, energetic and without borders. If we cannot perceive it this way, that’s because our perceptions ...

“There is an inmost center in us all where truth abides in fullness.”

—Robert Browning

We live in such confusing times today that, for many, discerning what is truth and what is not can be a real challenge. And how can that not be the case when the line between truth and lies is becoming murkier every day?

Misleading by “telling the truth” has become an evident pattern, to such a great extent that a new term has recently been employed by psychologists to describe it—paltering. Paltering is...

“In the global society we live in today, we are interdependent — we all depend on each other. Therefore, it is no longer appropriate to divide the world into ‘us’ and ‘them.’ We need to think of everyone belonging to one humanity.”

— His Holiness the Dalai Lama

In today’s world, it can feel like everywhere we look we find disharmony and uneasiness. We may disapprove of the friction, words, attitude, and divisiveness of what people say, which can feel disheartening. The good news is that the...

“All the powers in the universe are already ours. It is we who have put our hands over our eyes.”

 —Frederic W. H. Myers

 Maybe you’re not aware, but at this exact moment, you are living a default life. The repetitive acceptance and rejection of others’ ideas, beliefs, behaviors, and so on have set your resonance on default, just like in a computer program. The problem here is that, on default, we’ll keep running in circles and repeating the same old stories that bring about the same resonance...

“A human being is a part of the whole called by us the universe, a part limited in time and space. He experiences himself, his thoughts and feeling as something separated from the rest, a kind of optical delusion of his consciousness. This delusion is a kind of prison for us, restricting us to our personal desires and to affection for a few persons nearest to us. Our task must be to free ourselves from this prison by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole...

In addition to the pandemic and all the uncertainty we’ve had to live in regard to our health and economy, now we also have to deal with lack of leadership! I don’t know if the same thing happens to you, but the fights between members of the Senate, the continuous judgment and polarization of the leaders of the political parties, the aggressiveness and violence throughout our streets, and social media networks for social injustice make me question our current models of leaderships. In the world ...
