In our daily living we base decisions and actions on scarcity. I frequently hear from my coaching clients and friends they lack time- time to be with family, time to pursue what they love, time to rest, sleep, play.

You may have heard the expression, ‘Energy flows where Attention Goes’. I’ve used this principle many times to be mindful of where I’m feeding my attention and energy.

Last weekend I attended a seminar with Tara Brach and Jonathan Foust, two excellent Buddhist teachers on Conscious Living. Tara talked about living in your ‘false refuge’, that place where you go to hide or escape so that you don’t have to connect with others authentically. When you are angry or hurt, do you complain […]
