Description

Joyfully applying practical, spiritual solutions to life’s challenges has been a characteristic of my work over the years. On this interactive Zoom/conference podcast, I will be sharing the best of what I have learned from living both a rich personal life and a rewarding professional life as a psychotherapist for almost 52 years. I will introduce specific tools for managing stress and disruptive emotions and will demonstrate how to apply these tools, sometimes using myself as a model and testimonial as to their effectiveness. 

My interest in practical spiritual teachings has grown steadily over the years following my introduction to the work of J. Krishnamurti in the early 1980s. Favorite authors and teachers, whose works I include in our discussions, include A Course In Miracles, The Way of Mastery, The Tao Made Easy, Diederik Wolsak’s Choose Again, Shirzad Chamine’s Awareness and Positive Intelligence, Guy Finley’s The Courage To Be Free, Michael Singer’s The Untethered Soul and The Surrender Experiment, Dr. Michael Ryce’s Why is this Happening to Me — AGAIN? as well as books by Alan Cohen and the works of Carl Jung, Alan Watts, Anthony deMello and Pema Chodron, to name a few. 

I have always been drawn to teachers who invite us to observe and question rather than to prescribe an already set thought pattern or belief system. My intention is to provide a free, accessible, safe way to address and neutralize the stress-producing climate many of us find ourselves in at present. Listeners are encouraged to bring their own personal challenges and questions to these conversations.

The podcasts are free to all who are interested.
