DISEMBODIED the disembodied sensory organs are here together we live Bucky Fuller estimates that we can only perceive through the 5 senses less than 1% of the electromagnetic spectrum...99+% of all electromagnetic frequencies that surround and penetrate our bodies we cannot even sense, and of these, consider how many frequencies are information humans have created in the form of radio waves, television waves, cell phone waves, satellite waves...within this context, we still sense an amazing amount of information through the individual 5 senses...yet, how disembodied this sensory information often is, unintegrated...we focus on sound, touch, taste individually without a conscious integration...and yet, somehow, all the senses can subconsciouly intergrate into a "feeling," an "intution," and together, these integrations make up our moment to moment lived experience. practice, in the space of 2-3 minutes, tune in, feel into, each of the 5 senses, one at a time... consi...

BALANCING SPHERES balancing the spheres of mind, body, and spirit activating love for optimal health and well being we need to activate, energize, and balance our energy "spheres" of mind, body, emotions, and spirit...this requires many daily practices, cultivating, nurturing, reinforcing, and growing our energy spheres to maximize our personal well being which, in turn, is paramount to activating our love energy in service of others. consider one of the energy spheres (perhaps one you feel depleted in, or one that you are drawn toward): body, mind, emotions, or spirit...what simple 5 minute (or less) practice can you engage in today to cultivate/grow your energy in that sphere? e.g.'s: body: 3 mindful breaths mind: repeat aloud and/or write a positive affirmation 3 times (see Louise Hay for affirmations) emotions: place your hand on your heart area and ask, what am i feeling, what message is being communicated, what am i being called to do (see Karla McLaren for understa...

DARK 2 LIGHT standing in the dark moving through the spectrum stumblin' towards the light there is probably an infinite gradation of colors from pure darkness to pure light...the progress, journey, and movement from dark to light is reflected in mystical traditions, faith, myths, e.g. the journey to illumination, seeing the light at the end of the tunnel in some near death experiences...the phrase stublin' towards the light is borrowed from Bo Lozoff and is an apt metaphor for the journey...we walk, jog, or run and eventually stumble, we get up, hopefully learn something from our stumblin,' and continue, over and over, in the direction of the light. looking back over the last year, month, or week, where have you stumbled, what were the circumstances, what is within your control to change for next time...find something simple that you can do to nudge you in the direction of the light for next time, write it down and commit to this new behavior the next time the opportunity p...

ENERGY BEING one of the most basic and vital questions we can ponder/contemplate is: who am i? after giving this some thought, i created the following drawing and labeled it: multidimensional energy being...that we are multidimensional is readily apparent when we consider our mind, body, emotions, and spirit...that we are composed of energy also is readily apparent when we consider the ebb and flow of energy within a given day/night cycle, from low to high to low, and in the basic energy systems within the body, for example, each of the organs have their own energy system which is interconnected to the overall health and well being of our entire system. be considerate and kind to your energy systems that are working for you 24-7...one way you can support your organs is to sip on different types of herbal teas, e.g., dandelion root for the liver, mallow for the lungs, chamomile for the stomach...enjoy the taste and energy of the herbs that support your multidimensional energy body. ...
