Let’s face it. The world often seems crazy and out of control, affecting our sense of security and peacefulness, and sometimes numbing our creativity. But… what if I told you there is a well-known solution that most people haven’t tried – Mindfulness Meditation. Here’s what you are missing: Meditation broadens and deepens our calm mind, the […]
Christmas and this run up period is meant to be one of the most joyful times of the year. However, if you’ve recently journeyed through divorce, the festive period can be one of the most emotionally challenging times to handle. If you’ve split from the mother/father of your children and you’ll be alternating Christmas’ yearly […]
Do you feel an urge to better understand life? You may be asking, “Why are we here? What’s really going on in life?” With these questions, you are sensing the larger picture of life: Each generation is born into an existing world reality, a zeitgeist. But, history shows that human reality progresses over time. When […]

I recently listened to Steve Pavlina’s podcast entitled, “Life, the Universe, and Everything”, and it got me contemplating our soul purpose and the worthiest pursuits in life.
