Silence and Stillness are the foundation from which the ability to consciously create our lives naturally emerges. We are creating our lives each day and each moment, either consciously, out of the stillness of our soul's intention, or unconsciously, out of fear and reactivity.

Silence and stillness form the base for conscious life creation, with fear and reactivity leading to unconscious actions in contrast.

Discovering Stillness

Silence and Stillness are the very foundation for all other spiritual practices. In this introduction to the art and practice of silence, discover how this practice naturally emerged from a year of living in solitude in a tiny house in Japan.

In this series, we have mindfully created the daily practice of silence. If you have worked with the prior sessions on a weekly basis, you have now cultivated the routine of silence in the morning and silence in the evening. This routine of returning to silence is the foundation for all other practices.

Return To Silence

We often spend our lives seeking outside of ourselves for that which is already within. As the poet Rumi once wrote, "Look inside yourself; everything that you want, you already are."

Look inside to find what you seek - Rumi's message reminds us everything we crave is already within us.

Already Within

Journey Into Sleep

Sending the energy of pure love to someone whom we care for deeply, but are separated from in the physical world, either due to loss or unresolved separation, or perhaps even death, can be a healing and transformational path toward wholeness and emotional freedom. This practice is an adaptation of an approach originally articulated by an eleventh-century female Tibetan Buddhist teacher is adapted for the Western world and can be used to feed those we have lost in relationship due to loss, death, and separation.

Becoming Love

Solitude is one of the most precious things in the human spirit. Only in your solitude will you come upon your own beauty. In the neglected crevices and corners of your evaded solitude, you will find the treasure that you have always sought elsewhere.

Solitude is essential for discovering one's own beauty and finding the treasure that is often sought elsewhere.

Solitude by John O'Donohue

The Path of the Soul is a journey one must take within. It is not for the weak or faint of heart. Whether you find yourself at the top or at the bottom, it is your soul that is keeping score on a completely different kind of game, one with different scorekeeping criteria in this very brief game of life we call the human experience. One of the most significant things you can do is to get extremely clear….absolutely crystal clear….as to the criteria you are using to not only evaluate the life you have lived but to set your own definition of measurement for the life you intend to create with whatever time you have left ahead. This is the Path of the Soul.

The Path of the Soul is a challenging internal journey where one's soul keeps score, and clarity on life evaluation and goals is crucial.
