At the Grail
I just arrived at the Grail, and it is even more beautiful than ever, if that is possible. Looks like we are going to have a great group tonight. This was a week for me for reminding myself of how painful it is to try and control and have specific...
The Control Paradox
The arrogance. What makes me, one of 8 billion humans on a tiny blue planet, shared with a multitude of organisms in a vast universe; think that I should be in control of the fine details of life’s events? This traffic should move faster so I can...
I’m In School Again!
I've done it. I've joined the School of Coaching Mastery's Certification program. I've only had a few classes so far, but I am already *loving* this. How great, as a coach, to learn more that you can bring back to your clients and your coaching?!...
Thank-You Universe, Socrates
It's been one year since my very good friend and mentor, Socrates, came into my life. (Socrates is named after Dan Millman's Socrates (Way of the Peaceful Warrior) and the philosopher.) Socrates is a regular human being in all ways, yet he is also a...

Beck – Live at the Rehearsal Hall
Wow. Music is a pretty huge part of my life, as I can't imagine it not being for those that are living from soul. This show was awesome, just watched it on Bravo. It woke me up about 10 levels...Think I might've taken about 10 "red pills" during that show (ala The...
It was really fun
Did my workshop tonight! We had a small but perfect group, varied enough to provide lots of examples and stimulating discussion. I was very much in the moment, which feels nice and also allows the best info to come forth from me. I...
Off to the Grail
I'm off to Grail Springs this weekend for the Conscious Me retreat. They have generously allowed me to bring my brother as a guest! He has recently gone through chemotherapy for leukemia. So far, things seems to be going as hoped with the...
Tonight’s Lessons In Now
Another "Socrates" night, and more lessions in Living in the Now. None of this is new information, but what is new for me is gaining more and more of a visceral sense of being in the moment and keeping oneself there. Here, best I can describe, are...
Just Who Is this “Socrates” Fellow, Anyway?
Ok, so the cats out of the bag already that I have this interesting character in my life I call Socrates. Trying to explain who he is is actually quite difficult, primarily because I am still trying to figure it out. Here is what I know: He is a gifted...

Sedona Method
I experimented with the Sedona Method the other day. The idea is to feel an emotion, then ask yourself three questions until the emotion doesn't bother you any more. It is a method for "letting go." I was feeling a very strong emotion and I started asking myself...
Is it just me, or is the Earth balancing itself?
Mother nature will maintain a balance, and preserve the Earth, no matter what that may entail. We can warm her up, but Earth will cool herself down if she wants to. The volcano in Iceland released heat, and will add ash into the atmosphere that will cool us off....
