Discernment, Imagination & Coming of Age

June 21, 2015

One of the most essential, yet difficult, skills we must learn in order to navigate life well is discernment.  In other words, good judgment--knowing who and what to trust. We ask ourselves: What do I know? What do I believe? How can I be sure what is “real” and what is not, what is “true” and what is not?  How will I know the difference? And as soon as we start to ask these questions, we quickly discover we have myriad other questions in need of answers:  what is safe, what is good, what is balanced?

Inner Partnership

October 31, 2010

We live in a time when many are unaware of, or doubt, the reality of unseen consciousness and the ability we each have to access it.  But sometimes, extraordinary events occur that cause even the most skeptical to pause and reconsider. Here is a remarkable—and true--story of one woman’s inner contact with her ancestors that recently resulted in her winning a half million-dollar MacArthur Foundation “genius” grant! Meet Jessie Little Doe Baird, a member of the Wampanoag Tribe in Massachusetts.  (The Wampanoag were the first Native Americans to meet the Puritans when they arrived in the … [Read more...]
