From time to time, we face challenges that allow the ego to slip in and momentarily take over our state of consciousness. We may experience this as anxiety, fear, confusion, stress, or simply the sense that we’ve become off-balance. Part of the human experience—which is ultimately an ever-expanding experience of the Divine—is learning how to […]

The Wisdom of Enough
The ego is constantly searching for the next thing, expertly keeping the promise of fulfilled desire somewhere in the future. So how do we walk the paradox between creating and being? It begins with seeing this moment as enough, because it is deeply layered with the dreams of yesterday. Every step you have taken, every

The Life You Rehearse
Everything in life is practice. We feel drawn to repeat certain patterns and behaviors—some helpful, some harmful—and throughout the course of a life, we become quite proficient. Most of us are remarkably disciplined. The question is whether we’re practicing what we actually wish to become. This is where intentionality becomes extraordinarily helpful. Notice where your

Why Peace Often Feels Boring
There was a time when I believed growth arrived through challenge. Each difficult season seemed to carry an important lesson, and over time I quietly accepted the idea that life needed to become hard before something meaningful could emerge. Looking back, I can appreciate those experiences, yet I no longer believe struggle is the only

Tomorrow, Dana turns eighty. Thirty years ago, we stood together in Zion National Park celebrating her fiftieth birthday. This weekend, we’re going back. As I prepare for our journey back to Zion, I find myself thinking about the strange ways souls recognize one another. Many people imagine soulmates arriving with thunder and lightning. They expect
