A friend tells me of a situation that she finds herself going through. Actually its probably more of a life changing event. She has 2 children that have reached adulthood and they are embarking on setting out on their own. One will go to college and the other starts a new job at an advertising company. They will be moving away from home. It all sounds great for the children and we wish them the best success in their lives. Off they go..to their own lives. My friend, we’ll call her Amanda, is now finding herself waking up everyday without the sounds of activity in the home. As a matter of fact there …

Why celebrate Chinese New Year?
Millions of people in China and other parts of the world celebrate the Chinese New Year (CNY). The celebration has however lost much of its meaning in many parts of the world today because of commercialism. Today’s CNY celebrations are very different from the CNY celebrations held a few decades ago. For instance, many temples in China turn into hawker markets every year during the celebrations. Charges have also been introduced when visiting certain temples in China during the CNY festivals. In summary, commercialism is ruining the original purpose of the CNY. As …

Freedom from Desire
A long time ago, I wrote a blog called, “Healing Desires: The Differences Between Desires and Urges.” It got pretty popular. So I suppose it was a breath of fresh air for many people to suddenly see that their urge to eat was different than the desire for a specific type of food and that you could have one without the other. Probably somewhere in the thinking is that without desire, we’d stop eating and breathing or something. Such is the hyperbole of the ego mind.But desire is not a permanent state. It is a learned practice. It is the practice of placing our fulfillment somewhere else. It is the practice of saying, “When I have this thing, experience, or…

How To Find Inner Peace In 12 Simple Steps
Extracted and modified from the uncopyrighted book “Steps Toward Peace” by Peace Pilgrim: When I talk about the steps toward inner peace, I talk about them in a framework, but there’s nothing arbitrary about the number of steps. They can be expanded; they can be contracted. This is just a way of talking about the subject, but this is important: the steps toward inner peace are not taken in any certain order. The first step for one may be the last step for another. So just take whatever steps seem easiest for you, and as you take a few steps, it will become easier for you to…

Living An Unhappy Life – The Causes and Effects.
Someone once said – “There comes a time in your life, when you walk away from all the drama and people who create it. You surround yourself with people who make you laugh. Forget the bad, and focus on the good. Love the people who treat you right, pray for the ones who don’t. Life is too short to be anything but happy. Falling down is a part of life, getting back up is living.” (Author Unkown) A dear friend sent me this parable the other day and its been on my mind ever since. …

Body Language of Lies: 6 Ways to Spot a Liar
Body language is a powerful non-verbal communication tool, allowing you to decode subtle messages and even spot a liar. However, before you learn how to do this, I want you to ask yourself one question – why would you want to stop a liar? They say that with great power comes great responsibility. Mastering the art of body language is a great power and you should be ready to assume the responsibility that comes with it. For one you will start noticing that people tell more untruths than you would have ever imagined.

Learning what makes you tick on an individual level is so important. Once you have found the elixir of motivation, it makes sense to tap into it and to give yourself a kick-start if you start flagging.

Think long and hard about the following questions and take time to write down full-answers in response. Be honest with yourself when answering these questions-you may surprise yourself. 1. What is your biggest achievement to date? 2. How did you achieve your success? 3. During the…
