Couples

  1. Help them feel safe to speak openly and freely
  2. Hear each one in a way that s/he feels completely understood and “gotten” by me.
  3. Remove the blocks around their hearts by showing them how each has his/her own emotional subjective perspective, and give them the tools to hear and feel each other
  4. Build safety and trust between them by teaching them how to communicate with patience, care and compassion
  5. Engage them in practices which will support and build upon their sense of partnership and unity

Let’s have some fun today. You have read some serious stuff about the brain and the mind in many of my blogs, and in one of my articles, we are sexual beings, you may have read about the differences between men’s and women’s brain structures.  Here’s a fun take on the same topic: [youtube]xxtUH_bHBxs[/youtube] It’s []

Being With What IS – Part II

Another chord struck, so it seems appropriate to expand upon this blog topic. I did not mean to imply that it is easy being with what IS. Yes there are times, like when you can’t find the right shoes or a parking spot, that we can let things flow better, depending on our mood. But []

Empathic Civilization

Here is  link to a video which blew me away.  Aside from the fact that it is absolutely one of the most brilliant things I have seen in a long time, its message is mine verbatim:  We need to understand how we are wired and rewire ourselves so that we can have an “Empathic Civilization.” []

Disappointment

For those of you who are wondering how AWARENESS is doing, I am so happy to share that we have been getting some pretty profound testimonials from people using the app.  With that, we got some requests to get help on learning how to distinguish some of the feelings that are on the app.  There []

Emotional Neighborhood

We all have hundreds of emotions locked in our bodies’ memories from childhood.  They are generally rather painful and extremely uncomfortable.  The reason they are there is because when we felt hurt, fearful or misunderstood in some way, we usually didn’t have a constructive way to express or release them.  Our parents were either unaware []

Sex and Love Can Come together

Here is my latest Huffington Post article:   With sex all around us, oozing out of our televisions, theaters, magazines, fashion, on the streets, one would think we are the most sexually informed, open and comfortable nation on the planet.

Germs and Brains

Before the discovery of germs and bacteria, people believed that physical illnesses were caused by wrathful Gods, spirits entering their bodies, the evil eye and a variety of other fantastical interpretations. They then attempted to “cure” the illnesses in some pretty strange and sometimes barbaric ways, such as using bleeding cups to take blood from []
