Healing hate begs the question, what is hate? The Merriam Webster dictionary says, “Intense hostility and aversion usually deriving from fear, anger, or sense of injury.” My spiritual practice is rooted in the teachings of the Vedic Scriptures of India. The Vedas say we are in the age of Kali Yuga. Kali Yuga is one of four cycles in time that continuously perpetuate for eternity. We … Continue reading Healing Hate
Twenty years ago I attended a lecture with a famous spiritual teacher from India. A woman in the audience asked him a question. I never forgot the question, or the answer. The question was, “What’s the best way to meditate?” The answer was, “Whatever way makes you love God more.” I was moved by his answer. The truth resonated in the depths of my being. … Continue reading How to Tell if You’re Making Spiritual Progress
How do we regard such an incident as the massacre of dear school children? There are 3 primary realms of existence, the material, emotional and spiritual. In the material realm this is a tragedy beyond measure. Nothing can make sense of a senseless act, especially one of violence acted upon innocent children. And yet it happens. Innocent helpless children were massacred. A mother murdered by … Continue reading Fear and Faith
Years ago working on a show in NYC. I was assistant director/production manager for a production of Romeo & Juliet, on Off-Off Broadway. I had a big time crush on one of the actors.

I was shocked when we sat down … Continue reading I’m in Love with the Wrong Person
You’re right, I didn’t call you back. I’m guilty. When I’m in a Recovery Cycle it could take me a few days. I don’t know much about astrology but I know about emotional Recovery Cycles. I wish more people did because not knowing causes so much more emotional pain! Over the past few weeks it seems like there’s something up astrologically around emotions because emotional … Continue reading You Didn’t Call Me Back
I caught myself pursing my lips while on the phone with an old friend. I finally brought up why I was pissed, it was about the forty bucks she owed me from a few years back. The air between us got awkward. More than three decades ago I declared I would never again ‘lend’ money unless I was truly okay with never getting it back, no matter … Continue reading Break the Fault Finding Habit
Transitions are tough. Everything in our physiology naturally goes into resistance when facing a transition. The brain loves to create patterns. With patterns (even, unfortunately, negative, destructive patterns), you find comfort simply because the pattern is known to you. Patterns help us feel stable. But what about the patterns that start out as healthy and after time become unhealthy. For example, a drink after dinner … Continue reading How to Break a Bad Habit
My friend leaned in over the noisy din at “China World Buffet”… “I love food! All kinds of food. All kinds of restaurants. I love eating out!” We hadn’t seen each other in a long time and agreed to meet at her favorite food buffet. As I sat with her, I found myself increasingly repulsed, not just by what she was eating, but how she … Continue reading Foodie or Food Addict?
