Compassion happens when you stop haggling with life. It was a hard blow on the ego to see friends and peers lead productive, seemingly normal lives,…
LISTEN TO THIS EPISODE ON SOUNDWISE Most of us are driven by two conflicting desires: on one hand we want to feel we’re special. The whole mission of the ego is to maintain an individual identify that makes you feel separate from the rest. Being special feels good in that sense. But on the other hand, most time we’re unwilling to make the choices which make that specialness come out and shine. There’re lots of…

LISTEN TO THIS EPISODE ON SOUNDWISE 99% of the world suffers from low self esteem, in one form or another. If you think you’re the only person carrying that burden, it’s because everyone is so good at pretending. Because we’re all taught that to succeed you need to be confident and believe in yourself.

For most people, life is an inner war on a daily basis, from the smallest logistics…need to get out of bed, oh no!…to the paradigm-altering life decisions that you’re too afraid to make. There’s a firmly established command-and-judge program installed in almost everyone, to get the human self behave in such ways that the ego gets what it wants. These inner wars are exhausting (though you may not even be aware of it since you’re…
Many on the spiritual path believe that they have to diligently work on their beliefs. Because beliefs carry vibrations and “change your thoughts, change your life”, no? While it’s true that beliefs impact your state of being and working on them can be incredibly empowering and life-affirming in certain situations, the belief about the importance of beliefs often becomes counter-productive when it instigates such fear that the ego thinks a witch hunt for negative beliefs…
Being an empath is powerful, but not until you know how to use that power. When you walk in the world as an empathic being, two things are constantly happening: 1. external situations are triggering what’s inside of you that’s unacknowledged, unloved and unhealed; 2. you’re being entrained into the energy fields of other people and places.

In this video I talk…

Personally I’ve had a turbulent week emotionally and energetically. When I mentioned it to a friend, she immediately went, “oh, it’s because of the solar eclipse!”. Is it? When things don’t go our way, most of us instinctually reject the situation as unacceptable. And in order to make…
Last week I got this email from a reader, who, like me, is an empath. Here’s what she said: “For a long time now I’ve been trying to find out where I belong as a future social worker. The more I experience the dysfunctions of the world the more wisdom I gain. But it affects me so deeply because I’m an empath. I’m determined to do the work because I love people. All I…
A common question readers ask me is “How do I find my purpose?” Just this week, someone emailed me and said, “Even though I trust the universe for finding my way. I still question myself so much about how, where, and when. What do I do?” Before we talk about what your mission is, I want to ask you this question: Why do you want to know your purpose in life? What is wrong with not…
