Is This Blocking Your Next Spiritual Breakthrough?

It’s Not the Molecule nor the Brain State I heard something recently that stopped me, because it was almost exactly in my own words. A neuroscientist, talking about how people actually change, said: “It’s not the molecule.” Next, he finished his statement, and it went somewhere I hear a lot:…

What Is Actually Mine

What Is Actually Mine A client told me last winter that she’d spent four days on an email that was two sentences long. She had to let a colleague know she couldn’t take on a file he’d asked her to cover, and the draft had been finished since Tuesday morning.…

The Night Is Not the Medicine

What the Ceremony Cannot Do for Us I have had the night everyone hopes for. More than once. I have also struggled in ceremony in ways I have not since childhood, been met by presences I could not explain and did not wish to, and come to the end of…

Abuse by a Family Member: Why We Tolerate It, and How We Stop I’ve spent a lot of time listening to people describe being hurt by the people they’re supposed to be safest with. A mother whose adult son speaks to her with open contempt. A woman in her fifties…

The Phrase That Keeps You Stuck

The Phrase That Keeps You Stuck I was sitting with a woman recently who had just come through the collapse of a business partnership. She had been overridden, dismissed, and eventually pushed out of something she helped build. She told me the whole story with remarkable clarity — the early…
