Involuntary Resistance Coming to Light
Much of the spiritual path, especially in awakening, is about bringing awareness–bringing your own inner light–to shine fully on yourself. The darkness exists and persists where we refuse to look and refuse to go. It is by its nature a creature that lives in the negative spaces–the spaces where other things aren't. That's why it is so important to have courage to look deeply within yourself again and again. It is so important to…

How Focus Defines Our Life
Photography is an amazing way to learn about focus. This is because the very act of viewing life through the lens of a camera can help us develop a truly empowering skill. We call that skill focus, and learning to use it properly can transform our perception of the world around us and the people in it. I believe that the power to change your reality is equal to your ability to focus your attention in the most beneficial direction at any given time. 3 things photography can …

Breaking Apart Mental, Emotional, and Physical Triggers
One way the shift into the awakened space can feel is like having your engine be taken apart and spread across the garage floor. You are suddenly very aware that this buggy ain't going no where, and you are exceptionally clear about what has actually been in your engine. In the past years, I felt like I re-did the engine multiple times too. It felt like I'd just get it all put back together, drive half a mile, and then stop for another upgrade. Good gravy.With all that said, having in-depth clarity about your inner workings is incredibly illuminating, but like most things, if you don't…

Duct tape – a frugal parent’s best friend
You have probably heard over and over that duct tape is the magic solution for all problems. It might even prevent World War III. Here is one fine example of how it can save a parent some money. Five years ago, I bought my girls a Springfree® trampoline. What is awesome about these, pretty much as the name implies, is that there is no spring on which to catch one’s foot. In fact the whole thing is pretty sleek. Despite the seemingly hefty $900 price (I see they cost a bit more now), this is the best recreational investment I have made for the kids, for several reasons: After five years, …
