A listener wrote in with some amazing questions. She shared her yearning to be at peace and the way she’s taking in so much content in the hopes of having some sort of enlightenment experience that takes the suffering away. I discuss the innocent folly in this way of thinking.She shares that desperately needs a
Have you ever thought something like: “I need these feelings/thoughts to settle down so I can be present”? What if thoughts and feelings are presence? Believing they are in the way of presence leaves us feeling as if life has it wrong. It leaves us searching for the “right” way.I suspect that what we’ve been
Exploring the Me-And-My-Life Perspective begins the week of April 8th!We’ll examine how Me-And-My-Life is a point of view we’re conditioned into; a point of view that posits there is a “me”, separate from life, “having a life”. There are many fascinating aspects of this perspective that we’ll explore–such as evidence for a separate me, choice and
In today’s episode, I dive into another set of questions from a listener–this time, all about feeling. Chris asks some amazing questions about welcoming what’s arising.

Her goal for our coaching was to feel a particular way when faced with a particular work situation. While I don’t know that our time together can deliver what her mind says it wants–that specific feeling–I’m pretty certain
Today’s episode explores a question from a listener who says she has been stuck in a sense of nostalgia for years. She’s convinced that it’s all downhill from here. This may be one of my favorite episodes. The questions she asks opened the door to look at what nostalgia is, what the past and future are,
