I’m a die-hard believer in the fact that a daily practice of a few minutes of silence will change your life. You won’t believe the difference it makes when you choose even 5 minutes to spend observing your mind. Some people call it the monkey mind, I now call mine Babs My Border Collie Brain […]
What are you addicted to and are you ready to stop? Do you think addiction only means drugs like alcohol and cocaine? When was the last time you told yourself to stop checking your cell phone so often or to stop eating refined sugar or found yourself telling the same tale of woe in your […]
What happens when you work through your Shadow and learn to stand in the space between Dark and Light with awareness and power to choose is a predictable process that you can repeat the rest of your life.
