Spring Awakening…

[Click on bold for more depth]

While continuing to be blessed with a dynamic practice, I find myself continually inspired and in a state of awakening in many ways: currently I’m almost finished with Michael Singer’s new book, The Untethered Soul. I have found this groundbreaking book so nourishing to my soul and psyche that I have a number of my clients reading it along with me. Concurrently, I’ve joined Oprah Winfrey in her ten-week 90 minute live webinar event with Eckhart Tolle going chapter by chapter through his book, A New Earth. Over five million people logged on and have been participating from all over the world. Now into its fifth week (all shows are still downloadable) this is a world wide web and consciousness phenomena! Both books are charting a new direction and shift in conscious awareness that is truly liberating!

I am constantly amazed at my own journey and I’ve been finding new clarity and a ground of BE-ing that feels like a spring blooming of sorts. Recently, I was invited to write an article for an Italian psychotherapy magazine’s upcoming issue with the theme of “courage.” It was a great opportunity for me to make distinct what I refer to as “Conscious Courage.” In short, Conscious Courage is a state of BE-ing; it is a coming into our self through our heart and life-force allowing us to face challenges, difficulty and fear, instead of withdrawing from it. With all the energy and somatic psychologies that are available to us now, mindful courage is required if we are to face both the personal and global challenges confronting us as we struggle to heal our lives and world. As soon as the article is published, a copy of it will appear on this web site in English.

A couple of weeks before, I was interviewed for a documentary on intergenerational healing for individuals with Holocaust legacies. While on camera, I was reminded yet again of what a great opportunity trauma resolution represents for mankind. I have personally witnessed the healing of individuals with survivor legacies, and I recognize how much conscious courage is required to enter the healing domain. If we could take an example like genocide to demonstrate that mass societal healing is in our grasp, who knows how fast that healing could migrate to the many other troubled areas in our world? Could this not aid in a resolution to all types of human suffering and global challenges?

As an fyi, coming up on April 19th is an all day workshop titled Family Constellations & Focalizing: Energy Psychologies for the 21st Century and sponsored by the Institute for Authentic Process Healing (IAPH). It was fully enrolled to an enlarged capacity less than two weeks after posting it. This too is very exciting. So many people are open and looking for ways to more gracefully move forward in these complex and confusing times. We will be planning another similar event soon, please get on emailing list (on this site) if you’d like to attend or call or email your interest. The following day there will be a grass-root IAPH meeting to explore and plan events for remainder of the year. Volunteers with skills are always welcome for help with this nonprofit endeavor, simply email for details.

I’m already looking forward to summer! More soon!
