Spring Equinox

The Inner Wolf
Do you feel like other people are judging you? Are you holding yourself back from reaching your goals and from living life the way you want to because you are afraid of other people’s judgements?

“It’s one of those days!”
A friend said to me yesterday, “I do not feel right. It’s one of those days! I woke up and already did not feel happy.” Have you had one of those days? Do you feel unhappy or “not right” sometimes? I certainly have. It seems we feel “off” when we are not in alignment with…

They cannot see anything positive about those characteristics that they have suppressed in themselves but judge so harshly in others. The moment we find out what that part in us is teaching us,…
Debbie Ford’s Legacy
Saddened by Debbie Ford’s passing at the age of 57 just yesterday, I have been reflecting a bit on the legacy of this courageous woman whose light always shone so brightly. (http://www.debbieford.com/) She has made the Jungian term of the shadow accessible to everyone and has given us many exercises to embrace our shadow—our dark…
How Our “Shadow” Uses Our Own Mind Against Us
What is this thing we call our “shadow”? Our shadow is us when we make a stupid remark out of upset, anger, or fear and hurt someone else we love, possibly ruining a relationship. Our dark shadow side is acting up when we do something out of fear to sabotage our career, our happiness or…
You Are a Magnificent Castle With Endless Possibilities
In “Love and Awakening,” John Welwood uses the analogy of a castle to show what we are like as children and what we become by the time we are adults. We are born into this world as a castle with thousands of rooms. Every room is perfect the way it is and has its own…
