What is grace?
This is a question I’ve had from students throughout my teaching career and so I thought I would address that today.
Radiate Grace in 2022
Happy New Year! I really can’t believe it’s 2022. Time just is flying by. I thought I would chat about 2022, starting with resolutions…
Holy Imagination
I believe that many, many of our problems would be resolved if we would utilize the imagination of our soul.
The Curious Matter of Meaning and Purpose
I cannot even count the number of people I have met who are on a quest for meaning and purpose yet have no idea where to look or even what they are seeking. What exactly do “meaning and purpose” look like?
Finding Truth in All Ways
There is no end to the quest for truth in our lives or, as the Buddha would say, the breakdown of our illusions.
Growing in the Darkness
You cannot avoid the darkness forever. Everyone experiences a dark night of the soul at some point. Therefore, your great spiritual task is to cultivate a relationship to both the light and the dark that is brave, honest, and wholesome.
Advent – Be prepared for a new beginning.
Advent is the celebration, the ritual of one candle after another increasing the light as we move into the darkest day of the year – the winter solstice. And then the light comes back.
Light isn’t just a metaphor – it’s an experience.
Welcome to a conversation between Robert and me on “The Holy Season for Mystics.” We thought we’d get together and chat about why we’re so excited for this class and what inspired this class between the two of us.
It’s the season to be joyful – and also a time to be mindful.
The holy season is a time to be joyful, but it can also be a very challenging time of year. Many of us feel lonely, lost, very tired, and in need of spiritual nourishment and life support. And that’s why it is so important to approach the holy season mindfully and with great compassion and care.
Exploring the Mystical Nature of the Holy Season
It is good to be talking to you again, and it is especially good to be sharing with you about the upcoming Reflections series I’ll be doing with Robert Holden – The Holy Season for Mystics.
Self-Help: How Do You Know What You Need?
Knowing what you need is not a small task. How many times do people have to reach a breaking point in their life to recognize that they are making foolish choices for themselves?
Be Fully Human & Fully Divine
I am so happy to be here with my dear friend Robert Holden. I invited him to do a class on The Enneagram for Reflections Parallel, and now I have a chance to chat with him about it.
Look Deeper Within
Mysticism is not just a personal rich experience – a mystical view includes understanding the mystical tools of the cosmos and the mystical landscape in which we live.
I almost didn’t live to see this day…
Your life can end at any minute. At any second it can be over… Your life is here until it’s not. Every day is this very precious experience of being here. When we’re given these incredible blessings, we should find a way to bless someone else with them. We should pass it on. We should open the way to turn blessings into something we pass along like a string of pearls.

What We All Need at This Moment
My dear friend Andrew Harvey was so kind to share this message about my upcoming Reflections course “St. Teresa of Avila – The Courageous Journey of Inner Space.”
The Foothills of the Era of the Soul
I’m doing this course because of my deep devotion to the mystical teachings of, not just Teresa of Avila, but all the mystics. I’ve spent years now, really immersed in the nature of our spiritual health, and I’ve come to believe that we’ve reached the foothills of the Era of the Soul.

The Dark Night of the Soul
I have heard so many people say “I’m going through a dark night.” What I realized a long time ago is that most people who use that phrase did not know where it came from.
