“To know your archetypes” is “unquestionably the most important thing you can do,” urges Caroline Myss. How important is it to understanding your self, your motives, your behavior? “It’s like knowing your birth date!” she claims.

The Power of Community
The Power of Community cannot be overlooked. Our story around community has been corrupted through some erroneous beliefs about biology and evolution, which has created a cancerous culture.
Education researcher (and Kentucky native) Joseph Chilton Pearce has pointed out, “We have a name for cells that don’t work for the good of the whole organism. We call them ‘cancer’.” Pearce worries that a false understanding of our human role on the planet has led to tumor-like behavior on our part, rather than healthier kinds of growth.
Lynne McTaggart Explains that Story is Seeing and Seeing is Story
“The stories we tell ourselves about how the world works ultimately govern what we perceive.” Lynne McTaggart
The eyes have it, she says. What we are taught about how we relate to other, what our role is on the planet, governs the way we see–literally.

The Power of Finding Your Voice: No Better Example
This documentary blew my mind. I kept trying to imagine this in an American classroom. Would we be so free? Would the teacher have such latitude? Would the children cooperate, grow, and learn? Would the parents allow it? But it does show how the power of writing can instruct the body, heart, and mind. Sheer genius.
“Everything is Waiting for You.”
by David Whyte
Your great mistake is to act the drama
as if you were alone. As if life
were a progressive and cunning crime
with no witness to the tiny hidden
transgressions. To feel abandoned is to deny
the intimacy of your surroundings. Surely,
even you, at times, have felt the grand array;
the swelling presence, and the chorus, crowding
out your solo voice. You must note
the way the soap dish enables you,
or the window latch grants you freedom.
Alertness is the hidden discipline of familiarity.
The stairs are your mentor of things
to come, the doors have always been there
to frighten you and invite you,
and the tiny speaker in the phone
is your dream-ladder to divinity.
Put down the weight of your aloneness and ease into
the conversation. The kettle is singing
even as it pours you a drink, the cooking pots
have left their arrogant aloofness and
seen the good in you at last. All the birds
and creatures of the world are unutterably
themselves. Everything is waiting for you.

Deserts, Dollars, and Divas
I just returned from another workshop. I’m a little tired of the Amway approach to training. I understand the concept of upsell, but give me a break. When it takes three hours to upsell, isn’t it time for a refund, at least a partial one? I want the information I paid for.
Who’s In Charge of Your Voice?
Do you value your own voice? Has someone taken over your thoughts? Have your brains been sucked clean and replaced by someone else’s or something else?
Again with the “you create your own reality” crap
Aren’t you tired of being told that you create your own reality? All you can think is:
-
Why the heck would I create this reality?
-
When will I get it right?
-
I must not have enough willpower to make my reality better.
-
I don’t know how to make the decision to move on.
-
I don’t know how to let go and let God.
-
What is wrong with me?
-
Yeah but . . . . [fill in the blank with your past story of choice].
Listen to mystic and medical intuitive Caroline Myss put these thoughts to rest. She helped to re-create my creation!
