Afraid you’ll be buried in work when you return from vacation? There are more benefits to time off than you think. Learn more here….
I recently started reading, “The Pathwork of Self-Transformation” by Eva Pierrakos. From what I’ve gleaned so far, the Pathwork process is about finding the unresolved conflicts within you that create turmoil, problems, tensions in your life. It reminded me of the concept of Polarity Management, the ability to manage conflicting desires, needs, yearnings. The elusive […]
January is behind you and those New Year Resolutions may be a distant memory. You still want to lose weight, be more patient with your kids, change jobs, get more organized. Yet you just don’t seem to have the focus, energy, or motivation to make a change. You keep letting old habits go on auto-pilot. […]
One of the biggest challenges at work is simply having time to think. Carving out precious minutes of silence is even more challenging. Yet from just 3-4 minutes of silent reflection for centering, you can quiet the monkey mind chatter. That precious ‘time out’ is valuable ‘time-in’ for new insights and fresh perspectives.

When you align your gifts, passion, and purpose, the glory and radiance of who you are shines through. Here’s a wonderful video of a young man who did just that. Michael had the […]
I love the work of Matthew Fox, the expelled Catholic priest. In his book, The Reinvention of Work, Fox suggests the metaphor for work as a “Sacred Sacrament”. He defines sacrament as “a holy revelation of the hidden mysteries of the Divine – mysteries so sacred they require metaphor and symbol if we are to […]
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 […]
