Read MoreMake Room for New Thoughts: Meditation and Creative Thinking Techniques
With so many thoughts begging for your attention each day, it’s hard to believe that most of them are the same ones you had yesterday.

Read MoreThe Way of Gratitude – Part 1 of 3
I like to think about meditation as the art of being present.

Read MoreEmotional Alchemy: Holding the Pain, Transmuting the Darkness
My contention is that if we really want to get in the evolutionary fast lane, we’ll dedicate one hour a day to our meditation practice. For most people, mornings are the best time—before the world gets going and our opportunity to sit quietly slips away. So many of us tend to make excuses and skip…
