Four Myths About Mindfulness Meditation

Ronald Alexander

Adapted from Dr. Ronald Alexander’s new book, Wise Mind, Open Mind: Finding Purpose and Meaning in Times of Crisis, Loss, and Change (New Harbinger Publications, 2009). The majority of my clients resist mindfulness meditation at first, although the time commitment is small and the payoff is enormous.

Then she went through the loss of a parent, and had such trouble coping that she couldn’t even drag herself out of bed. After missing work ten days straight, she called me … [Read more...]

The Meaning of Deja Vu

"Déjà Vu" is a common intuitive experience that has happened to many of us. The expression is derived from the French, meaning "already seen."

Living a Lifetime by Tricia Saborio-Koike

Living a LifetimeHow many times have you wondered what your life is all about? If you believe that a single lifetime is not long enough let us contemplate "Life."The journey begins from the moment that miraculous seed of light is implanted in the womb. Though many believe the soul does not enter the body until the 9th month gestation period is complete, there is speculation that the soul enters and leaves at will during the entire gestation period. This is said to happen so that the spirit can experience certain changes the mother is going through forming the bond in soul to soul … [Read more...]
