The Subconscious Mind – A Powerful Ally
Heidi Sorenson, a former Playboy Playmate, has a unique and interesting perspective on healing cancer. Not surprisingly, since she successfully healed herself of breast cancer. What is unique is her very strong belief in the power of the mind and the way she managed her own thoughts during her ordeal. Speaking to her, you soon learn that remission is a four-letter word to her, as is the word survivor. “Survivor suggests the cancer has the power,” she asserts. As for remission, Heidi is equally adamant, “It’s dangerous for women with breast cancer to think of their recovery in terms of [...]
Body Wisdom: What Is It and How Do We Connect to It?
The body has its own wisdom and ways of knowing, separate and distinct from that of the mind. The mind thinks while the body feels. From each of these ways of knowing we get valuable information. Just as seeing and hearing are two totally distinct senses that supply us with discrete sensations, so too the body gives us different feedback than the mind. Our bodies have a special and unique relationship with the vibrating matrix of our reality, one which we can learn to tap into and learn from. Table of Contents Why Is It So Hard to Listen [...]
Living an Authentic Life
People talk about living a happy life, a successful life, a meaningful life. But an authentic life? What is that? It's a good question, and one I would like you to think about.

For still others it will be in the service they performed for humanity. Others again in the [...]
Follow the Call
It takes courage To do what you want Other people Have a lot of plans for you. - Joseph Campbell The following is an excerpt from The Practice of Happiness, a book by John Kehoe. Yes I am a husband, a son, a brother, a writer, and a tax-paying citizen of Canada, and each of these roles has responsibilities and duties, but first and foremost I am me. And this role I will honour above all else. For if I don’t honour myself, my vision first, by what compass can I chart my life? To what allegiance can I swear [...]
Be Here Now
The following is an excerpt from The Practice of Happiness, a book by John Kehoe. Each moment of time is a point in the journey. A point unique and unlike any other point that has come before or will come in the future. Each moment of time is a destination that has been arrived at, whether planned or not. To drink deeply from the moment is to increase your life force - to be aware and awake and alive. To miss the points in the journey is to miss the journey. To think or believe that the points in the [...]
Developing Character
Energy-wise, it is not just what we think and do that counts, but equally who we are. Who we are vibrates a unique frequency that resonates throughout the entire energy web. We cannot ignore who we are. To develop character means we take on the qualities and habits that are most in alignment with our ultimate vision of ourselves. Petty habits that no longer serve us must be dropped, but when we drop our pettiness what do we replace it with? Nature abhors a vacuum and will rush to replace whatever we eliminate with something else. But this works to [...]
