There is no oversensitivity. We have stories that lead to our thoughts that lead to our beliefs that lead to our feelings. When we are easily wounded, our story might be that other people have power over us. Or that other people's opinion or judgment of us trumps our own opinion of ourselves. Or that a constructive comment  means we are inherently flawed and therefore...worthless and unlovable.  I liken the experience of having hurt feelings to being an injured animal that lashes out in defense of its hurt self, because it wants nothing to get close enough to see its inadequacy...

I've written before about scar healing, but my attention was largely towards the spiritual and emotional. But as I am a believer along the teachings of Drs. Joe Dispenza and Bruce Lipton, I believe the physical manifestation of trauma can also heal, because of our capacity to heal emotionally/spiritually.  Again, I reiterate my belief that physical healing is not so much the stitching up of tissues after trauma, as it is the restoration of balance and harmony after trauma, due to our personal work to understand, accept, and love ourselves...pre, during, and post trauma. The biggest physically sustained trauma I've...

I listened to a glorious interview the other day from one of my favorite scientific podcasters Dr. Andrew Huberman who was interviewing Dr. Alia Crum. The interview is here.  It was glorious because they are both extremely well educated professors at Stanford University that at least appear to be approachable and human, and she gave the simplest (for me) to grasp guidance I've ever heard for understanding and gently steering my own behavior. She repeated what I've heard before and already understand- that if we have a reaction to (aka if we are triggered by) something, that indicates we have a...

We are not all seekers, but if you are reading this, you are at least curious about our existence. Seeker: one that looks deeper inside, deeper outside, of self, for meaning, understanding and ultimately, ascension to some holy state of existence. I keep looking, reading, studying, so that I finally, FINALLY, get it! I read a passage the other day from Anthony De Mello...to the effect of "you have arrived, you are here, you are perfect. The holy state you seek is now."  WHAT?  Where are the fire works, the visions, the hidden coming out to the apparent? That's it?!  Now I...

We are all story tellers:  "I am good at this, I am deficient at that. I excel at this, I am impaired doing that. I am enjoying this, I am bored with that." All of our talk- which is largely happening inside of our brains and not even being spoken aloud- directs our ship. What is our ship? Our bodies. So our thoughts and talk are, however subtle, the blue print for the plan and the directions for the voyage.  For example, I have a family member who struggles with sub-optimal oxygen absorption, aka less than ideal lung function. I can hear her:...
