FOR THOSE ON THE HEALING JOURNEY: We might start doing the healing work addressing childhood trauma only after an adult trauma takes place. Why must adult trauma happen? Haven't we been through enough BS in our childhoods? So many of us are not doing the nose-to-the-grindstone grueling blood sweat and tears work of healing... Continue Reading →
Authority Worship and Why a Compassionate Deeper Understanding is Needed A deeper reason why authority worship is so commonplace might be because some of us are unconsciously looking to be saved. Religions often promise that someone is coming from the cosmos or other planets to come here and save us. Since our parents could not... Continue Reading →
The physical and non-physical (spiritual) aspect of trauma that very few discuss.... With trauma, there is both a physical-worldly aspect and a spiritual aspect. We might either solely focus on the physical and get overwhelmed to the point where we are often outside the "window of tolerance" (the window that allows us to feel our... Continue Reading →
I make a MEAN mocha shake! :-D I cannot drink coffee, but these days I have been experimenting with high quality whole bean farmer's market coffee and then making it in the cleanest way possible and then only drinking it in very minute amounts and mixing it with almond milk. I had a lot of... Continue Reading →
Part of the healing process is apologizing, feeling the guilt for what you did to harm other people. I know that in my own process, my inner guidance took me to places in my past where I have harmed other people and animals and I have cried again and again. I got instant forgiveness from...

I am always fascinated by how repression works because I know how it had worked within me. It is simply amazing how our bodies remember every single thing, but our conscious minds do not. All of us have stuff repressed. It is either fully repressed or partially repressed. We are not supposed to remember what... Continue Reading →
A really good question someone might ask about reincarnation is "If we cannot heal our traumas in one lifetime, that means in another lifetime we have old pain to work through and then new pain to work through on top of that. That's too much and we'll never get the work done that way." I... Continue Reading →
"You've got everything you want. How could you be so unhappy?" I don't understand why we equate having money with being happy. You can live in a three story mansion, be married with 2 children and have two dogs. You can have nice green grass and a white picket fence. You can have maids and... Continue Reading →
When we think of honesty sometimes, we might think of badass women telling people off, we think of people cursing, we might think of inflexibility, or overly rigid boundaries that oppress or victimize others. And while that might be a good start, I feel the deepest and realest form of honesty is vulnerability and talking... Continue Reading →
We all condemn each other. The only difference between one person and another is whether they condemn overtly, covertly, quietly or subconsciously. Anyone who has any trauma in their background is going to attract people into their lives to trigger them enough to go back and heal their original wounds. Anyone who has trauma (repressed...

We might not be experiencing REAL consistent choices until we begin the healing process and start deprogramming. Until then, choice or free will is illusory. Many of our decisions we think we are freely making, our thought processes and patterns, might be really old dusty running programs in our head. We don't have consciousness until... Continue Reading →
We might unconsciously forgive our perpetrators prematurely because this way, we don't need to feel the deepest parts of our pain. Premature cognitive forgiveness, like false positivity and false gratefulness, work as a form of dissociation since the survivor might not be ready to or want to go deeper right now. If people were more... Continue Reading →
HUMBLE PIE You know you're staring to get real when you realize how fake you are. You know you are genuinely healing when you realize that you have a long way to go. You know you're becoming self-aware when you realize that you don't understand all of yourself yet and why you behave and think... Continue Reading →
