Question: I’m 30 years old and live in Europe. My whole life I have struggled with my childhood. I am a sensitive person who can feel problems and issues of others.

Question: I feel as if I am going through a major shift in consciousness. After years of what has felt like a foggy mind, I am finally reaching the inner peace I’ve missed for so long.

Question: What is the difference between the shadow self and the subconscious? Answer: The shadow self was a term coined by Carl Jung.

First be aware that Freud never… read more →
Question: After separating from my husband, I am now in a new relationship and much happier than before. There is so much understanding, joy and happiness between us.

Question: You have said to me that I don’t really want intimacy; that if that was really being offered, it would scare the shit out of me. I am not arguing your statement at all. Based on the men that I have brought into my life, it looks that way. And yet, my “perceived” desire is to connect to intimately… read more →
Question: I just read your last post “why would we rather stay stuck” and I have some further questions on this. The terror you spoke of is something that I am slowly unravelling in my life. I have always been challenged by anxiety, particularly social anxiety but it hasn’t been until this summer that I have realized the true extent… read more →
Question: I cannot tell you how your words and insights have been an enormous help to me in the past year and your meditation recording has been a game changer. I love how your answers/thoughts are speaking to me rather than at me like some spiritual teachers/advisers. People believe that everything is going to shit. I feel we are in… read more →
Question: I met with you last year when I was having a difficult time dealing with my sexual orientation and self-acceptance. I said “I never liked the term coming-out” and you mentioned “coming into yourself, fully, wholly” and that made so much sense to me. I got it, and use it as my mantra now. Since then, I fully accept… read more →
Question: I’d like your take on the topic of prayer.

Question: My current relationship feels like a perfect storm. I came into it straight from a mutual divorce but had many challenges at that time with relocation, family issues and trauma I never dealt with.

Question: Is there such a thing as a Shadow Worker? I am familiar with Shadow work, and Light Workers, but what about Shadow Workers? To clarify, my whole life (as far as I can recall) I tend to see the shadow of people rather than the light. For years I thought that there was something wrong with me, that I… read more →
Question: I am feeling completely stuck. I moved back to the East coast about 2 years ago. Before that I was on a spiritual / healing journey for about 6 years. It wasn’t an easy road, had its ups and downs just like anything else. A tragic death in my family and a lack of funds forced me to come… read more →
Question: I am at a complete loss. It’s not the next level. It’s the same sad, lonely place I’ve inhabited since I was young. I feel no hope and I’m barely working or interacting with others. I don’t feel much like doing anything but crying. I tried to go to bed listening to hypnosis for negative thinking last night. I… read more →
Question: I have been struggling with the whole “conscious manifestation” thing. Is it real? As in, can we consciously create our reality by spending time and thinking about it? Funny enough, most people around me that spout this stuff are have a hard time financially or emotionally…..I’ve been giving this a lot of thought. There is merit to visualization, though…I… read more →
