Our lives are a constant spiral of encountering the parts of ourselves that are not yet made whole. Just when we (foolishly) think we have handled all our challenges, something old or new arises that leads us toward greater fulfillment. We are constantly letting go of that which no longer serves us, and embracing something that is better aligned with Truth. The journey of Jesus into Jerusalem was his letting go of the life he had led so that he could demonstrate the greater glory.

We have often heard that humans are made up of approximately 60 to 70 percent water. We also hear that if we’re thirsty, we’re already a little dehydrated. Spiritually speaking, it is no different. So, how do we become good stewards of our “Source” before we’re desperate and depleted?

Do you judge your experiences as “good” or “bad?” Sometimes these labels short-circuit us from moving through them with grace and truth. Even as Jesus the Christ had his moments of doubt and fear, he quickly turned back to God. Can we say the same?

In New Thought teachings, the word “Oneness” often dominates our meditations and conversations. But what are we discovering or uncovering in our contemplations? On this “New Thought Day” let’s honor our revered founders and metaphysical teachers by exploring what they had to say about it!

Would it be okay with you if your life were more serene despite outward circumstances? How would you like to be more compassionate in all your communications? Let’s flex those “brain muscles” and discover a depth we might not have imagined. God DOES change our brains better than we can by ourselves!

We are conditioned from an early age with definitions and qualities of God that are dependent upon our family messages, the church (or not-church) we attend, and societal programming. In order to experience God, it is important to explore and question these patterns of belief and become willing for God to be “something else.” In the process, we discover how our brain changes, thereby shifting our view of life and our role in it. Are you ready to get MYSTICA

Most of us were conditioned to think about God in a certain way, assigning a gender, a pronoun or two, certain qualities, a judging eye, and actions in favor of or against us. We might still point to the heavens or talk about “the man upstairs.” These were beliefs and ideas that may have served us in the past, but they hinder our spiritual growth today. They limit God to the horizon of our understanding without allowing us to step into the mystery of the Divine. So let’s start dismantling any remnant of previous conditioning and discover how our EXPERIENCES of God have informed us!

We humans are endowed with six powerful mental faculties that can - when applied consciously with love - transform our lives and the planet in miraculous ways. Join us throughout February as we explore the neuroscience of belief and how God changes our brains.
