Whether I’m doing a reading or teaching a class, people often have similar concerns.
These posts answer some of my most frequently asked questions.
Sometimes life sucks. There are days when meditation and medication just aren’t enough to get you where you want to be. That’s life. You’ve had good days and bad days before, so you know that neither lasts forever. So what do you do on those really difficult days?Don’t fight with…
