Do you love Qigong?Qigong is a very mysterious Kung Fu!

Are you truly generous?  Or, do you give yourself and others “just enough”—not a scrap more? Do attempts to be frugal make you tightfisted?  Where do you stand on the polarity of generosity vs. stinginess?             Fear of scarcity makes us stingy.  So we scrimp through life, not only pinching pennies but also weighing how [...]

We all have to leave the tribe in order to discard obsolete ways of being, thinking, feeling—even loving. Does that mean we have to turn our back on all the key influences of our formation?  Identified as distinct individuals, we may not realize the depth of the tribe’s imprint on our psyche. It subliminally directs [...]

Our world is riddled with terrorists. These masters of fear are a small percentage of the population who intimidate the masses. They tyrannize through unpredictable, indecipherable patterns of attack on innocent people.  They keep us on the edge of our seat, looking over our shoulder, fearful of populated areas, distrustful of anyone else who crosses our [...]

However, we’re very sensitive to the past and its lies about limitations, unworthiness, isolation and failure. The smallest contamination of doubt can throw us off the path we have so dearly fought to explore.  Many of us haven’t yet enjoyed the self-proving on a soul level that brings rock-hard conviction about our place in the [...]

The Tibetans and shamans call them the Hungry Ghosts. We all know them quite well—too well! They are the voices of undoing—the “sirens” from Odysseus’ journey who would seduce us off course on our journey homeward. They are the demons who surface when we suddenly awaken in the middle of the night filled with doubts [...]

“Unfasten your seat belt! Prepare to be flung from your seat!” The Tibetan teasingly offers this remedy for my obsession with control. Yes, I’m a control freak and proud of it! It’s how I manage this insanely chaotic life on a planet that seems to be spinning out of control. There are many steps down [...]

Environmental sensitivity, a relatively new “dis-ease,” is increasing. The body’s delicate system is overburdened by toxins in our habitat and can no longer tolerate the buildup of poisons. This physical challenge mirrors a similar psychological/spiritual experience of heightened sensitivity to all energies. We’re losing our armor, coping mechanisms and ability to accept toxicity on any [...]

While ignorance may be bliss in some arenas, ignorance about holistic medicine could mean you are missing out on the significant health benefits that it offers. I have to admit being one of those who’ve harbored misconceptions about the practice of holistic or alternative medicine and therapies. Luckily for me, I happened to come [...]

With the costs associated with health care reaching epic heights, people are increasingly seeking cost effective alternatives to modern medicine and medical practices. The broad spectrum of therapies that are covered under the umbrella of holistic health offer a wide selection of options to the over-priced, overmedicated solutions given by modern science and medicine. However, [...]

Let’s face it – these days most of us are having trouble making ends meet, and caring for our health is the last thing on our minds, at least until we get sick. With the cost of modern medical care rising to levels that make it nearly out of reach of the average person, getting [...]

For years we have been conditioned to trust our doctors implicitly, even if at times our instinct tells us otherwise. With malpractice law suits at an all time high and health care insurance coverage at an all time low in the west, more and more people are beginning to take control of their own health [...]

Holistic therapies are increasingly gaining more and more acceptance around the world as scores of frustrated people seek alternatives to expensive modern medical practices. These people have slowly begun to recognize that the very same modern medical practices that they’ve relied on for so long, seek to treat the symptoms rather than cure the disease [...]

It is estimated that over 47 million people in the U.S. alone are living without health insurance. Ironically, those who do have healthcare coverage are often paralyzed by the exorbitant and prohibitive out of pocket expenses they are often required to cover themselves. Now more than ever, scores of people around the world are searching [...]
