Pain as Our Teacher

Last updated on: June 7, 2013 at 3:26 pm By Carl Studna

The act of healing is expansive, whereas fear is constrictive. When muscles and areas of the body contract or receive injury, pain is felt or created. How do we respond to pain; as a wake-up call to expand, or with fearful thoughts that cause greater contraction? Healing is an act of revealing the truth, and the truth always sets us free. Pain is either our ally, telling us where we need to expand and bring in the light of truth, or we view it as our fearful enemy, here to bring us down. Read more

Living Above the Clouds

Last updated on: May 30, 2013 at 10:17 am By Carl Studna

We in Western culture are not only endowed with outward freedoms based in human rights, but also the inward freedom to choose thoughts, beliefs and actions that will serve us and those around us in the most beneficial of ways; yet many forget the power of this choice.

Just Breathe

Last updated on: May 10, 2013 at 11:59 am By Carl Studna

Stress is not a natural condition. As we allow ourselves to release into the perfect rhythm and flow of our breath’s innate guidance, we return to our inherent equilibrium. It’s so simple, yet our Western conditioning tells us that it’s more important to place our attention on life’s busyness first, and relax later! Read more

Cultivating Inner Peace

Last updated on: April 18, 2013 at 5:01 pm By Carl Studna

Perhaps these trying times are an act of evolution calling us to go deeper in our need to reevaluate our current local and world conditions and discern where we, as humanity, need to see, feel and evaluate each of our roles in the world in terms of the choices we make and the beliefs that we carry.

Through Mystic Eyes

Last updated on: April 10, 2013 at 5:16 pm By Carl Studna

As we learn to see and experience life anew in each moment, our conditioned ways of being begin to dissipate and we become filled with a greater sense of wonder, awe and splendor. We learn to cultivate a deeper trust in what we don’t see with the outer eyes and trust in the infinite realms of possibilities that mold and form our physical world. Read more
