June 16, 2019 Inner Peace Through Finding Everything Interesting


We are human sorting machines walking through life putting everything we see hear and experience into baskets, “I like this”, “I don’t like this” “This is good”  “This is bad”.  Once we’ve figured out if something is good or bad or if we like it or don’t like it , we let it go and stop really observing or exploring it further.  What if we took a break from this sorting?  What would happen if instead of good, bad, right, wrong, like, dislike we just found everything to be interesting?

When I’m coaching or taking clients through my Core Belief Transformation process or even in Past Life Regressions and Future Life Progressions I find myself sitting without judgement just finding everything so very interesting.  This allows me to explore anything in a deeper way and begin to find what purpose it may serve and what opportunities might exist to help the client. 

For example, when in a Core Belief session we go back to a traumatic event in a clients life perhaps watching a father explode with rage and become verbally abusive towards his family I could understandably view this as terrible.  But that wouldn’t help the client.  Instead I find it incredibly interesting and with the clients help we explore what’s going on here.  What triggered this fight or flight response?   What is the fear or pain present in this father?  Isn’t it interesting that he’s turned his happiness and ability to be at peace over to his five year old daughter.  This sort of exploration often reveals truths the client had never considered before and slowly the lie that this fathers out burst had to do with the clients being unlovable, not worthy or not enough begins to melt away.

When we find something interesting, we can take a closer look and find the gift or blessing in any situation.  If we label it as awful, evil, despicable it is very difficult to pull it in close enough to really observe.  It’s like seeing an object on the sidewalk, once you’ve labeled it as dog poop you’re not going to touch it.  But if you find it interesting you might pick it up and pull it apart and find the diamond ring the dog had swallowed. 

I use this same “Isn’t this Interesting” view in my own life and it helps me avoid thoughts that are toxic to my happiness that come from judgements.  When I start thinking the “isn’t it awful” thoughts it’s really hard to stay in happiness, joy, love and gratitude.  If instead I’m finding it interesting I can usually stay in those higher vibrating emotional states.  

For example: if I wave at a friend, and he doesn’t wave back, I can find it interesting.  In that state of curiosity without judgement I’m more apt to make sure the friend actually saw me and to engage the friend in a conversation of discovery.  If I’m in the “isn’t this awful” mind set, I’ll start asking myself what I’ve done to cause this and before you know it I’m down a rabbit hole of negative self talk and story making that takes me away from my happiness and probably isn’t true at all. 

Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is just for the next few hours, try finding everything interesting.  First off, you may be surprised by your constant desire to judge and sort your reality into the good and bad baskets.  Soon you will come to see how fascinating your world really is and you may discover the diamonds hidden all around you.  Let me know what happens.

Is Vortex Energy Real? A Soul Guide’s Honest Take After 30 Years in Sedona

  I first came to Sedona in 1990, long before it became a spiritual buzzword. Back then, the red rocks called to me the way a waterfall does—something bigger, older, and wiser than words. Locals spoke about “vortexes” the way you’d talk about the wind. Not to impress anyone. Just to point toward something you could feel . They told me the shape and mineral makeup of the land caused the Earth’s natural magnetic and electric energy to swirl in these places. Not in a spooky way—just like tuning forks or resonant chambers. If you were out of alignment, you might feel it like a jolt or a rush. But if you were in tune with the frequency? You’d just feel still. Like peace had pulled up a chair. Over the years, I’ve seen thousands come here searching for clarity, healing, release, or just a reason to breathe deeper. And while science has yet to “prove” vortexes are real, I’ve also never seen a peer-reviewed study on love. Doesn’t mean it’s not real. I’m not here to convince anyone. I’m...

A Quick Way to Discover if you Really Do Love Yourself

If you’ve started down the road of self improvement, read any books, spent any time in therapy or done just about any work on yourself then you likely already know the importance of loving one’s self.   You’ve likely already heard, that you can’t truly love another until you fully love yourself.   That the emptiness you’re seeking to fill with the love of another first needs to be filled with your own love. If you’ve never read or been told this before, well now you know. If you already know this, are you really doing this?   Most of the clients I work with know full well the value and importance of self love.   They could likely write a blog post all about it.   But many have yet to fully believe they are lovable and as a result are not actually loving themselves or in most cases fear that they don’t truly love themselves. A part of this comes from having two brains,   the Intellectual and the emotional, the left and the righ...

June 9, 2019 - Ho’oponopono The Ancient Hawaiian Prayer of Forgiveness

Here is a powerful prayer from the Ancient Hawaiians that can create miracles in your life.  The Kahuna's believe that the energy you put out into the world comes back to you and whatever energy shows up in your world is the consequence of what you've sent out.  This prayer is about shifting the energy you put out to gratitude and love. Here is the prayer and it's four simple steps to create a powerful energy that transforms your world. Step 1: Repentance – I’M SORRY End the blame and claim responsibility for everything. You are responsible for everything in your mind. Once you realize that, it is only natural to feel sorry. This realization can hurt and you may resist accepting responsibility for things that look like they are happening outside off yourself. But everything on the outside is a reflection of something happening on the inside. Step 2: Ask Forgiveness – PLEASE FORGIVE ME This message may be to the one you’re in conflict with or to ...
