Creating Your Dream



Have you ever known someone who does not have any inhibition about being him/her self? They are free to speak their mind with anyone or in any situation. They do not attempt to hurt people or push their values on them but merely speak what they believe without censor. They are free.

That can be you. Think of the freedom and space that that creates. To be sensitive and compassionate but simultaneously open and uninhibited. This is what is available to all of us if we come to know ourselves, our conditioning and our consciousness and CHOOSE to break through our walls and be our own true selves. Now we are talking real health.

More recently, I have continued to clarify my thoughts and feelings on the essential components of healing. Now, I wish to again re-focus and concentrate on what I believe from my deepest knowing to be the new paradigm in medicine. I have worked in and studied our "broken" system and love it for the miracles it has brought and continues to bring. However, ...

Connecting to the World

This is a picture from the Eucalyptus Grove At UCSD -- my dogs' favorite walk. Upon our return from our adventure, I read this from Buddhist psychologist, Rick Hanson. I really resonate with this aspect of connection. Connecting is in 3 directions -- inside with oneself, with others and with the world. When we strengthen one direction, we simultaneously strengthen our general connection. This is guidance to connect more deeply with the world. What makes you feel connected? I'd like to know.   Are we really so separate? The Practice   Love the world. Why?   Your brain evolved in three stages (to simplify a complex process): Reptile - Brainstem, focused on AVOIDING harm Mammal - Limbic system, focused on APPROACHING rewards Primate - Cortex, focused on ATTACHING to "us" With a fun use (to me, at least) of animal themes, the first JOT in this series -  pet the lizard  - was about how to soothe the most ancient structures of the...
