Spiritual Articles

The spiritual journey can be both wondrous and daunting. If you are a novice, and in many ways, we seem always to be beginners, or are deeply committed to your work, you can find support and assistance in these pages. This area of the site carries an intention of enjoyment, information, support, help, and some instruction. As is the rest of the site, the focus here is on living, practicing, and eventually being, the qualities sought in spiritual living. We explore what stops us from applying such a life.

In spirit

We become aware of what we are - inspired - in spirit, when we do what we love; when we give of our self; when we spontaneously help another; when we express excellence; when we extend love and power; when we steward our gifts and live up to our potential; when we feel spontaneous inner joy.

The written word

Whether such states occurred when we were a child or an adult, we recognize that they express a quality of us often lost in daily living. Then again, the power-filled moments that we do experience are instantly recognized and never forgotten. The written word can often inspire such states. May you read something here that brings you into the awareness of such moments.

A wide range of topics

This budding area of the site will expand over time. The article topics will vary and cover subjects such as, exploring what stops us from practicing; negative core beliefs. EFT©, release, surrender, and affirmations — the tools used to erase negative emotions and beliefs — will be explored. Prayer, affirmations, forgiveness, gratitude and kindness are offered from a different perspective. Meditation - spiritual meditation, meditation applied while active, often described as a spiritual exercise, will continue to be vital part of the subject matter.

Though the articles will cover a wide range of topics, as always, the theme will focus on living or 'being' the qualities of love, peace, power, and joy.

Many of the exercises and topics are referred to in my book "At Your Heart`s Pace: An Offering of Essential Spiritual Exercises."
