How To Turn Your Weaknesses Into Strengths
The journey toward emotional and spiritual freedom is not easy nor quick. For starters, life is filled with challenges because it’s the result of past karma, and it’s constantly changing. Also, the future is always unknown, which produces fear and resistance from your ego. It’s your attachment to things and people that disturbs the fluidity of life, creating pain and…

Modern technology allows you to engage with the world 24/7 without being physically out in the world. The natural direction of…
How To Master the Art of Listening
True listening is essential to be happy and at peace. I believe hearing is the first physical sense we develop in the womb, although in a primal form (with no sense of separation), when we “hear” our mother’s heart beat. Then, once we’re born, our mother’s voice makes us feel safe and nurtured, even as our other senses begin to…
