Handling the moments of profound loss and pain in the storms of life by Bryant McGill No matter how evolved we think we are, when we are caught up in a terrible tragedy we don't just sit around wondering what lessons we can learn from it — we are just simply holding on for dear life, hoping we can survive. Tragedy arrives in a blur, often accompanied by hopelessness, feigned calm and a fog-like numbness…

Creating Our Own Reality
Each day, thousands of times daily, we create our own reality in the unconscious mind, and this can be proven. By placing your right hand about 18 inches from your face and slowly moving it to your ear, you will see that your hand disappears in a blind spot. You can do this with the left hand as well locating another blind spot. The peripheral vision is also very poor. Now, if you look ahead, you will see a full…

Importance Of Being Present As A Parent
Parents have it hard. There’s no denying that. Everyone has a better idea of how you should be parenting and most of them are fully capable (and eager!) to describe their ideas to you in detail. But no matter their advice and fantastic ideas, parenting continues to be hard, and one of the hardest things about it is this: remaining present (1).

Make Peace with Disappointing Others and Get Healthy Loving Yourself Madly
This is an invitation to spend the next few minutes owning the mess that you call “caregiving.” I recently read a book about the importance of having the courage to be disliked. My head nearly exploded. So, I read it another five times. I always say that if it strikes a nerve and it rattles your cage, it deserves close examination. Owning my ridiculous need to be liked was a start. However, burning it to the ground changed everything. If…

Strategic Detachment
Emotional attachment happens when we introduce judgment into the moment. We ask ourselves: “How do I feel about this?”. We personalize the experience by involving ourselves emotionally. In short, we take the moment to heart. The circumstance is no longer just a circumstance. It’s now about us. It’s now happening to us. When we live like this, our emotions change from moment to moment. We get pulled in one direction and then the next. It’s an emotional roller coaster! It’s…

Authentically You
Do you ever feel like you live as multiple personalities? You’re one person at work. Another at the gym. And yet another with your friends and family. Do you long to live an integrated life? A life authentic to who and what you are? Life on Earth can be challenging for the spiritually illumined. We’re aware that the substance of life resides elsewhere, yet were heavily invested in the physical realm. So, how do we honor our true self when…

The Toxic Relationship Ne Plus Ultra Warning — You cannot save everyone, but you can save yourself…
Toxic relationships are dangerous to your health; they will literally kill you. Stress shortens your lifespan. Even a broken heart can kill you. There is an undeniable mind-body connection. Your arguments and hateful talk can land you in the emergency room or in the morgue. You were not meant to live in a fever of anxiety; screaming yourself hoarse in a frenzy of dreadful, panicked fight-or-flight that leaves you exhausted and numb with grief.

Moving from the slime to the sublime! Don’t be NamNastay.com
There is an unseen essential that is intrinsic, universal and guiding everyone who listens. There is an invisible hand at work in the making of beautiful lives. Uncommon success is found on the spiritual plane; you can't get there through common convention or following others. Hard work is not enough; many work slavishly-hard for little reward. Intelligence is insufficient; there are so many educated and brilliant people who have failed utterly and completely. Goodness is not enough; think of how…

Forgiving Narcissistic Abuse? What!?
“Forgiveness is part of healing. It is not a prerequisite to healing. It is a point we reach when we understand and accept the truth about what happened to us from a position of emotional neutrality without the pain, blame and shame that our abusers shadowed on us.” — Evelyn Ryan I'd like to share some information on forgiveness, justice and victimization that may not be so obvious to survivors of narcissistic abuse but is critical to their healing.
