Comparing yourself to your perception of how another person is doing is unhealthy in all aspects of life but it’s particularly destructive in healing.

Have you ever felt it’s unfair when you regress in your healing?

We were working on an economics dilemma and everyone on the team was contributing his/her point of view.

Our minds tell us so many things that aren’t true. In the process, we react emotionally, which affects our relationships.

All week I’ve been writing about giving and encouraging you to be realistic about your own capacity.

We all have our dark corners, our shadow side that can be hard to face and meet with full presence.

Do you agree that to be healthy we need to deal with our emotions? We need to process our emotions so we don’t end up repressing what’s not dealt with.

The idea of unearthing suppressed emotional material is controversial. On the one hand, if that repressed material is creating blocks to living your life and accessing healing, then we want to know what’s really going on.

I believe in the benefits of talk-based therapy and am so grateful for all the ways it helped me understand myself and become more conscious.

The foods you choose have a huge impact on your vitality. If you eat food that is processed, package or industrial, there isn’t much life/chi/prana in it.

Imaginative, unstructured play brings children into the moment and grounds them in their bodies.

If you child has a learning challenge, take some time to explore why. Look at the whole child. Learn at what’s happening in the household.

When the stress load is too high, children can be in a chronic state of tension, which may not be apparent on the surface.

What if we looked at children with learning challenges through a holistic lens? Let’s broaden the focus from how the child processes information to how the child is doing in his/her life.

All week I have written about discipline and asked you please, not to spank your kids. That brings us to the primary question, how can we get our kids to listen?

Our children will teach us what we need to learn for our self-growth, if we listen. In every moment that the child doesn't listen, there is an opportunity for us to self-reflect.

I wish it would be clear to parents that hitting children does much more harm than good. Spanking is not an effective way to teach children good behaviour.
