- [Rewilding Your Relationship: Love is Your Natural State](https://rohiniross.com/love/rewilding-your-relationship-your-natural-state-is-love/) - We tend to be attracted to people who will push our buttons. It feels like the innate intelligence behind life knows exactly who we need to be with in order to wake up in consciousness. Often at the beginning of a romantic relationship, there is a period of time where all we see is the good in our partner. We feel on top of the world and love everything about them. There is often a highly charged sexual chemistry during this time. We accept our partner. We don’t try to change them. We find their foibles cute or endearing.

But focusing on trying to improve what is not working and what isn’t good enough has us miss the beauty and goodness of what is present.

- [Your Beautiful Self](https://rohiniross.com/self-love/your-beautiful-self/) - I actively work against my desire to present only my best self. I resist the urge to using my writing to only show the parts of me I like. I forget who I am and have inclinations to try and feel worthy and good enough by seeing myself as better than and special. My need to look good and be the best, or at least better than, is still lurking in my consciousness. And I judge this harshly.

- [Let's Work Together For This Blue Planet](https://rohiniross.com/activism/lets-work-together-for-this-blue-planet/) - When we remember that we are the diverse expression of one, love, understanding, and cooperation make common sense. But as humans, we forget and fear takes over. When this happens, instead of working together, we react. We work against each other. We fight to dominate personally and collectively. The coping mechanism for fear is to develop systems of dominance that on a large scale lead to exploitation and try and preserve the survival and privilege of a few at the expense of the other people, animals, and the environment.

- [Anti-Racist Work and Spiritual Inquiry](https://rohiniross.com/activism/anti-racist-work-and-spiritual-inquiry/) - I have been heartened this past few weeks by the number of spiritual teachers from different traditions speaking out against racism and making it clear that this is part of the spiritual work and not separate from it. Eckhart Tolle, Tara Brach, Ron and Mary Hulnick, all made their position clear that they were taking action to support anti-racist work and standing up rather than standing by. I also really appreciated listening to Gangaji’s podcast Being Yourself: Meeting the Roots of Racism Within.
- [Holding A Compassionate Space For Anger](https://rohiniross.com/relationships/holding-a-compassionate-space-for-anger/) - Anger can be incredibly painful and difficult to navigate in relationships. Angus and I have had our fair share of challenges with this. It is often difficult to talk about because of the shame associated with reactive behaviors. Unfortunately, shame makes us resist our feelings so it is harder for them to disperse and more difficult to gain perspective within ourselves. Shame also makes it much less likely for us to reach out for support when it is needed most.
- [Neutrality is Heartless in the Face of Injustice](https://rohiniross.com/activism/neutrality-is-heartless-in-the-face-of-injustice/) - I want to acknowledge all of the support demonstrated by my readers for anti-racism and for the acknowledgment of Black Lives Matter.

- [Messy, Awkward, and Emotional -- That is Spiritual Too](https://rohiniross.com/activism/messy-awkward-and-emotional-that-is-spiritual-too/) - Over the past several weeks, my discomfort with upsetting people has required me to look inward and dig more deeply for my own inner guidance and wisdom than I have had to do in a while. I know my uncomfortable emotions are a sign of reactivity letting me know I am identifying with my ego. I have been on the learning curve of not taking other people’s upset with me personally.

Most of the focus on how to solve this problem is to reduce reactivity. This is a worthy goal but offers no solutions for when reactivity happens. This often leaves people judging themselves when they are reactive.

- [He Said, She Said: Housekeeping Blues](https://rohiniross.com/relationships/he-said-she-said-housekeeping-blues/) - Angus and I have different standards when it comes to housekeeping. This has been a source of resentment in the past. Many couple’s solve this issue by hiring help, but Angus is reticent to get a housekeeper due to a past mishap. So, we are forced to navigate our separate realities and find common ground – so far, so good thanks to his failing eye sight.
- [Would You Be Happier If Your Partner Changed?](https://rohiniross.com/love/would-you-be-happier-if-your-partner-changed/) - The Answer Might Not Be What You Think We just celebrated the Thanksgiving Holiday in the U.S. It is a wonderful reminder to look at what we are grateful for
- [Beyond Fear of Intimacy to Embracing the Wild](https://rohiniross.com/love/beyond-fear-of-intimacy-to-embracing-the-wild/) - There is an incredible depth of feeling and love experienced in intimate relationships. As Bruce Perry’s book title highlights, we are born for love. We are all drawn to the experience of love. That is our natural state. That is who we are. If this is true, why are intimate relationships hard for so many people?

- [Psychological Innocence](https://rohiniross.com/video-and-audio/psychological-innocence/) - Everyone is doing the best they can at all times, and our best does fluctuate.

- [What Is The One Thing That Always Makes A Difference In Relationships?](https://rohiniross.com/video-and-audio/what-is-the-one-thing-that-always-makes-a-difference-in-relationships/) - In relationships, struggles often happen when we blame our partner for our upset. It can look like we need our partner to be different in order to be happy. The more we look in that direction, the more real that appears. And the more real it looks, the harder it is to enjoy our partner exactly as they are...
- [Expectations Are Harmful To Relationships](https://rohiniross.com/love/needs-and-expectations-are-harmful-to-relationships/) - Relationships are hard when we look to them to get our needs met. It is inevitable that our partner is not going to meet our needs in some areas some of the time and in other areas consistently. And it seems that couples pick the perfect partner for not meeting their needs, or perhaps, we react in such a way
- [Releasing Contempt -- It Is More Dangerous For Relationships Than Conflict](https://rohiniross.com/love/contempt-is-more-dangerous-for-relationships-than-conflict/) - When people talk about conflict in relationships people usually think about emotional volatility. High conflict couples let the fur fly as they navigate their differences. They are willing to engage even if it is messy. As challenging is these kinds of interactions are, this kind of conflict is not a negative
- [You Are Wild, Free and Untamed](https://rohiniross.com/self-love/you-are-wild-free-and-untamed/) - Angus and I facilitated a corporate training recently and the target audience was millennials.

As I reflect on what it is that allows love to be rekindled and to flourish in a relationship, I see more and more it is not about the other person. For me, it has been through having a deeper awakening to my impersonal loving
- [Having A One Track Mind](https://rohiniross.com/less-stress-more-living/having-a-one-track-mind/) - Angus has a tendency of having a one-track mind that can be very effective at getting things done. He gets a bit between his teeth and doesn't stop, but when it turns into ruminating it doesn't work out so well.
- [What Do Wall-Sits and Relationships Have in Common?](https://rohiniross.com/love/what-do-wall-sits-and-relationships-have-in-common/) - They can both be really uncomfortable. I started doing the 7-minute workout recently and was sharing how much my legs shook when doing the wall-sit exercise.

- [Freedom From Being A Slave to External Validation](https://rohiniross.com/self-esteem/freedom-from-external-validation/) - My car lease expired at the end of last month so I went into the dealership after a good friend found me an amazing deal. Everything was completed ahead of time. I just needed to do the swap. Or so I thought. I forgot about the time in the finance office. When I was reminded of this, I walked into the finance office braced and ready for the reams of papers to sign. I sat down in the black vinyl chair ready for the task.

I ask because what I have found is that when I see my coping mechanisms as an indicator of how much I am caught up in my ego’s perceptions of separation and fear, compassion is the natural response. Instead of judgment, shame
- [Dealing With Children's Low Moods](https://rohiniross.com/video-and-audio/dealing-with-childrens-low-moods/) - If you have difficulty with your child’s low moods, it can be really helpful to recognize that the difficulty you experience is a reflection of your own state of mind.

I've included the links below.

- [The Best Relationship Remedy](https://rohiniross.com/love/the-best-relationship-remedy/) - Relationship advice is usually focused on trying to cultivate more of a feeling of love that comes and goes rather than on waking up to your essence of love that is always there no matter what.

During those times we noticed how easy it is to want to get back into emotional balance as quickly as possible. It can feel like there is a pull to feel better quickly.
- [Free to BE LEADERSHIP by Noushin Bayat](https://rohiniross.com/organizational-development/free-to-be-leadership/) - The words “leader” and “leadership” have a certain mystique about them, as if they are reserved for those special people who somehow qualify, through the right education or expertise, to lead us to better times. But in reality, leadership is an internal...
- [Love Is Not Only The Answer; It Is Also The Question And Everything Else In Between](https://rohiniross.com/spiritual-development/love-is-not-only-the-answer-it-is-also-the-question-and-everything-else-in-between/) - One of the things that I noticed this week, is I can get a bit antsy before leaving on a trip. I usually deal with this by leaving packing to the last minute. This works for me because then I don’t spend that much time thinking about it so there is less time to worry. This trip, however, needed more thoughtful...

- [We Are All On Our Way To Being Nothing](https://rohiniross.com/self-love/we-are-all-on-our-way-to-being-nothing/) - Intellectual interpretation or extrapolation of spiritual understanding is very different than what is shared from direct experience. And looking at my day-to-day life I see the level of my experiential understanding of my spiritual nature. I see that I am frequently caught up in the illusion of me being separa
- [Beyond the Psychology of Relationships](https://rohiniross.com/video-and-audio/beyond-the-psychology-of-relationships/) - Please watch beyond Angus's moan about the cleanse we are doing.

I got to see how sometimes it is invisible to me that I am leading with a no rather than an open mind. This is so helpful to recognize because conversations go so much better when I have an open mind that is a reflection of the yes and motto in improv. Relationships and life are more fun that way!

- [Navigating Your Partner's Low Mood Gracefully](https://rohiniross.com/video-and-audio/navigating-your-partners-low-mood-gracefully/) - It is easy to take your partner's low mood and reactivity personally. It can look like, if they were happier, you would be happier. And it can seem kind to try and help them by offering solutions or trying to talk them out of their low mood. Angus and I have been there and done that. We even still try to do it sometimes. But what we wake up to sooner now is that when we are doing that we have forgotten that our wellbeing and peace of mind comes from within. Any time it looks like you would feel better if your partner were different that is a clue that you have forgotten where you true peace of mind resides. And the person most in need of your love and compassion in that moment is yourself. When you turn your gaze inward and look to your true nature, there you connect with what you are looking for and your partner is no longer an issue. From understanding where your experience comes from it is easier to be okay even when your partner is not okay, and much more likely for you to see them through the lens of love and compassion rather than the lens of you needing them to be different in order to feel okay. Looking toward your innate wellbeing is good for you and them too! Here is the link for our workshop with Amy Johnson, Barb Patterson, Scott Kelly. It is available in-person and via Livestream https://barbarapatterson.com/reset/

- [Handling Conflict in Relationships](https://rohiniross.com/video-and-audio/handling-conflict-in-relationships/) - If you have conflict in your relationship, don't despair. It is possible to be on a learning curve so that conflict is reduced and when it does occur, it doesn't last as long. Conflict doesn't mean anything about you or your relationship.
- [Being Okay With Your Feelings is the Best Thing You Can Do For Your Relationship](https://rohiniross.com/love/being-okay-with-your-feelings-is-the-best-thing-you-can-do-for-your-relationship/) - Being okay with your feelings is the best thing you can do for your relationship and all areas of your life.

- [An Affair and Extramarital Attractions](https://rohiniross.com/less-stress-more-living/an-affair-and-extramarital-attractions/) - Angus was not too pleased about me airing our dirty laundry in my blog this week. An affair and extramarital attractions are definitely a tricky topic. But I wanted to share what I have learned in case it helps others. My feelings and resulting behaviors were symptoms of my internal distress and not our relationship.

Our eldest daughter just got home from college. My husband Angus and our youngest daughter found and put up our Christmas tree. The laser lights are sparkling outside.

Luckily I see the funny side, and we are both grateful for the greater level of peace we are experiencing in our relationship. This is not the result of us working on our relationship. It is simply the by-product of us seeing how we can let go and let life live us.
- [Celebrating Difference and Recognizing Oneness](https://rohiniross.com/spiritual-development/celebrating-difference-and-recognizing-oneness/) - I love diversity and the richness of different perspectives.

- [Letting Life Live You: Less Suffering More Possibility](https://rohiniross.com/less-stress-more-living/letting-life-live-you-less-suffering-more-possibility/) - There has been a lot going on recently. Being evacuated and not knowing if the wildfire was going to spread to our neighborhood. The death of a client. Getting sick. Feeling the loss of our dog Bella as at the one year anniversary of her death. But I wasn’t suffering. Even when I was experiencing excruciating pain...
- [Freedom from Suffering](https://rohiniross.com/less-stress-more-living/freedom-from-suffering-2/) - As soon as I feel the internal pressure to be special or better than, I know I am feeling the opposite -- not special, not good enough. Feelings of unworthiness can be so painful, and there are so many ways to try and escape these feelings. Trying to prove our worthiness by being better than. Numbing out from the pain by using coping mechanisms. Psychology tells us the problem is an issue that needs to be resolved, but there is no gold to be mined there only an infinite amount of issues that will need fixing. Instead, less suffering is the by-product of understanding what the source of suffering is. Rather than amorphous issues being the problem, understanding where our experience comes from helps us to see that emotional suffering comes from our thoughts. Our feelings are our thoughts brought to life physiologically...
- [Rule Breaker and Rule Follower](https://rohiniross.com/video-and-audio/rule-breaker-and-rule-follower/) - Thank you to everyone who has reached out to check in with Angus and me regarding our safety and for offering your support while we were evacuated. We are very grateful for your love and kindness. We are safe and have not been impacted by the fire other than the evacuation. Many others, however, have not been as fortunate...
- [Invisible State of Mind](https://rohiniross.com/video-and-audio/invisible-state-of-mind/) - It amazes me that my state of mind can be invisible to me. What I mean by that is that in my perception I think I am okay and in my right mind, but actually, I am destabilized. It is obvious to me when I am feeling extremes of upset, but what I share about in the Vlog is more subtle...
- [Spaciousness is Good for the Soul](https://rohiniross.com/less-stress-more-living/spaciousness-is-good-for-the-soul/) - October was a busy month. Barb Patterson and I enjoyed another very inspiring Engaged Space. The Soul-Centered Series started. There was a visit to our eldest daughter in college for Family Weekend, an amazing Business Summit in Portland, three corporate trainings, and client intensives...
- [Peace of Mind and Happiness are the Key to Greater Performance](https://rohiniross.com/less-stress-more-living/peace-of-mind-and-happiness-are-the-key-to-greater-performance/) - I was having a conversation with my husband Angus about the idea of creating things outside of ourselves by focusing on them and thinking about them positively. For me, this seems like such a lot of effort and feels like it is looking in the wrong direction from where well-being actually resides...
- [3PGC Webinar with Angus](https://rohiniross.com/spiritual-development/3pgc-with-angus/) - Dragged by my good wife kicking and screaming to every single personal growth workshop that was out there, I have to say that the idea of becoming a life coach was the last thing on my mind! So how come I became one? And why is it one of the best decisions I’ve ever made...
- [Performance Improves From Seeing Reality Is Subjective](https://rohiniross.com/less-stress-more-living/performance-improves-from-seeing-reality-is-subjective/) - I just got back from facilitating a corporate training. Even though I am physically tired, my spirits are high. It is such a gift to be able to witness people seeing something new for themselves and experiencing more peace and internal freedom as a result.
- [The "D" Word](https://rohiniross.com/video-and-audio/the-d-word/) - The "D" word is something that Angus and I used to consider frequently. I didn't even know it was on his mind as much as mine until this Vlog. I was just more vocal about it. Now, however, it isn't even a consideration for either of us. The big game changer for us was seeing ...
- [Parenting Madness](https://rohiniross.com/video-and-audio/parenting-madness/) - Angus and I are learning a lot about not adding noise to the teenage brain, and we are calling ourselves forward to be the adults and take responsibility for our emotional experience. There is no better way to learn this than to see that even teenagers are not responsible for how we feel...
- [The Counter-Intuitive Approach to Less Emotional Suffering](https://rohiniross.com/emotional-wellness/the-counter-intuitive-approach-to-less-emotional-suffering/) - I used to think that less suffering would come from managing my thinking so I could create a nicer experience for myself. I believed that if I could avoid negative thoughts then I wouldn't have negative emotions. I did not realize how much work this would be, nor did I see how the pressure of constantly trying to control my thoughts would create more suffering rather than less.
- [Have Fun Being Unapologetically YOU!](https://rohiniross.com/less-stress-more-living/have-fun-being-unapologetically-you/) - Angus didn’t realize he had taken someone’s negative feedback about our Vlog personally until it came time to do it. What I really appreciate about the pre-recording experience was watching Angus go from reactive and caught up in his thinking one moment to seeing his mind shift and getting perspective in another...
- [Who Knew? Letting Yourself Be Human Brings Out the Best in You!](https://rohiniross.com/self-love/letting-yourself-be-human-brings-out-the-best-in-you/) - Seeing stress as not being attached to the outside world has completely changed my relationship with it. When I thought my experience of stress was caused from things outside of me, I accepted it. I took it for granted and assumed ...
- [Goodwill is the Fertile Soil that Allows Relationships to Thrive](https://rohiniross.com/relationships/goodwill-is-the-fertile-soil-that-allows-relationships-to-thrive/) - I had some of my reflections after watching the live stream of the Pransky and Associates Working with Couples training this weekend. The importance of goodwill in a relationship stood out to me as essential. It is like the vital the richness of soil is for plants to grow in it.
- [The Soul-Centered Series Webinar with George Pransky](https://rohiniross.com/spiritual-development/the-soul-centered-series-webinar-george-pransky/) - George has a wonderful ability to point to the depth and profundity of the understanding shared by Sydney Banks as well as the simplicity of it. I love how straightforward George is in how he shares what he sees and how he works with others...
- [The Soul-Centered Series Webinar with Judith Sedgeman](https://rohiniross.com/video-and-audio/the-soul-centered-series-webinar-judith-sedgeman/) - Here is the recording of today's webinar with Judith Sedgeman. Judith shared beautifully how we each have to come to our own realizations and experience the deeper truth that gives us more inner freedom through our own personal truth. Hope you enjoy the webinar, and please share your reflections in the comments below.
- [The Soul-Centered Series Webinar with Bill Pettit](https://rohiniross.com/video-and-audio/the-soul-centered-series-webinar-bill-pettit/) - Here is the recording of today's webinar with Bill Pettit. Bill Pettit has shared the Three Principles within his psychiatric practice for more than 35 years. Bill was mentored personally for over 26 years by Sydney Banks.

- [The Soul-Centered Series Webinar with Barb Patterson](https://rohiniross.com/video-and-audio/the-soul-centered-series-webinar-barb-patterson/) - Barb Patterson is intent on disrupting the old models of transformation and what it takes to achieve new levels of performance for entrepreneurs, solopreneurs, and business leaders. She recognizes that hustle, hard work, and sacrifice are old, limiting ideas and instead points to the understanding ...
- [There Is Relief From Insecurity Simply From Understanding How the Mind Works](https://rohiniross.com/self-love/there-is-relief-from-insecurity-simply-by-understanding-how-the-mind-works/) - I was recently given feedback in a Mastermind group that I am part of that for someone with so much insecure thinking I sure get a lot done. I don’t know if you ever feel this way, but I feel at times like I am different than other people...
- [Angus' Active Imagination](https://rohiniross.com/less-stress-more-living/angus-active-imagination/) - Angus believes he has lost a box from Amazon. He creates a narrative around that and lives in this reality until a week later when the missing box is delivered. This goes to show how powerful thought is. We don’t live in an objective reality that we perceive...
- [What About Grief?](https://rohiniross.com/self-love/what-about-grief/) - After writing a blog on the transitory nature of thoughts and feelings and explaining how our feelings come from our thoughts, someone asked me, “What about grief?” From their question, it sounded to me like grief looked like something different than an internally generated experience...
- [Sun Lounger Insights](https://rohiniross.com/less-stress-more-living/sun-lounger-insights/) - Angus has finally convinced me to take a lie on the beach vacation. I used to think this would be a complete waste of time. I was a bit of a snob about taking that kind of vacation, but now I see the benefit of really letting my mind and body relax.
- [Changeable Podcast with Amy Johnson](https://rohiniross.com/less-stress-more-living/amy-johnson-changeable-podcast2/) - Change is natural and easy. Is that your experience? What about when it comes to breaking bad habits, or ending worry or anxiety? When it comes to bouncing back from disappointment or loss, or changing habitual patterns and reactions?
- [Gain With No Pain](https://rohiniross.com/work-life-balance/gain-with-no-pain/)
- [Navigating a Big Transition with More Ease](https://rohiniross.com/less-stress-more-living/navigating-a-big-transition-with-more-ease/) - There is a big transition afoot in our household with our eldest daughter leaving for college and emotions are running higher than normal.
- [Eat Your Fruits and Vegetables (or not)! Let Your Wisdom Guide the Way](https://rohiniross.com/self-love/eat-your-fruits-and-vegetables-or-not-let-your-wisdom-guide-the-way/) - I absolutely believe in Hippocrates' quote, “Let food be thy medicine and medicine be thy food.” And I see this as an opportunity for me to look inward for my answers and get acquainted with what feels good.
- [Shouting is Moaning on Steroids](https://rohiniross.com/video-and-audio/shouting-is-moaning-on-steroids/) - Shouting is the new moaning and another great example of how we each live in our separate realities. In Angus's world, he was not shouting. In my world, he was shouting at me. Fortunately, I had perspective and didn’t take it personally this time, but I do have a preference not to be shouted at.
- [The Totem Nutrition Podcast: Episode 003 Interview with Rohini Ross](https://rohiniross.com/less-stress-more-living/podcast-totem-nutrition-episode3/) - Trusting and understanding that your innate wellness is always available to you, is how to make improvements in your life and emotional state.
- [We Box Ourselves in with Limiting Beliefs, and We Also Set Ourselves Free](https://rohiniross.com/less-stress-more-living/we-box-ourselves-in-with-limiting-beliefs-and-we-also-set-ourselves-free/) - Just because we have a thought doesn’t mean it is true. Even when the thought evokes a big negative feeling that feeling is not a sign of the validity of the thought. It is feedback to let us know our thinking is off base. The worse the feeling is, the more distorted our thinking is at the moment.
- [Time to Get Off My Soapbox!](https://rohiniross.com/video-and-audio/rohini-needs-to-get-off-her-soapbox/) - Sometimes Angus feels compelled to have a moan, and sometimes I'm not able to be a good listener when he does. Rather than holding a loving space and saying "There, there, darling.", I get concerned and try to school him. This usually doesn't go well. Angus decides it would be good for him to have a virtual assistant.
- [Parenting Teens Teaches Me to Walk the Line of Letting Go and Loving Without Attachment](https://rohiniross.com/parenting/parenting-teaches-me-to-walk-the-line-of-letting-go-and-loving-without-attachment/) - Why is it so hard to bridge that gap between being a parent and being a teen? Why do I get so fearful as a parent, when I was just as reckless, impulsive, and unlikely to think things through when I was an adolescent? What makes me think I was different than my daughters?
- [The Soul-Centered Series Free Webinar with Bill Pettit](https://rohiniross.com/3-principles/the-soul-centered-series-free-webinar-with-bill-pettit/) - Bill Pettit has shared the Three Principles within his psychiatric practice for more than 35 years. Bill was mentored personally for over 26 years by Sydney Banks, and his direct experience with Syd’s teaching closely informs his work. His most recent speaking and coaching work focuses on overcoming trauma by understanding that there is just one cause—and one cure—for mental illness. In this webinar, Bill will share highlights of his experience learning from Syd and what he is seeing today regarding the spiritual nature of the understanding. August 25, 2018, 10:00 AM Pacific Time US 
- [Low Moods No Longer Bring My Life to a Halt](https://rohiniross.com/love/low-moods-no-longer-bring-my-life-to-a-halt/) - I won’t go as far as saying that I enjoy my low moods now, but they are more background noise than something that I keep front and center in my awareness. My day-to-day life does not have to change to accommodate them, and I definitely find myself dropping out of my low mood, forgetting about it and finding myself in
- [Angus Doesn't Have to Conquer Fear to Experience More Peace of Mind](https://rohiniross.com/less-stress-more-living/angus-doesnt-have-to-conquer-fear/) - Angus has a fear of heights, but what he has noticed is that the initial fear isn’t so bad as long as he doesn’t add-on additional anxious thoughts to his experience. We use this Vlog to test out his hypothesis by walking over the Deception Pass bridge. Angus has the initial lizard brain activation of anxiety, but he is able to ignore the extraneous thoughts that are calling for his attention and doesn’t get stuck on the bridge unable to move. Hopefully, this vlog will help all of us to see where we can ignore our thinking when it is not serving us and experience greater peace of mind as a result.
- [You Can’t Stop Negative Thoughts, But You Don’t Have to Take Them Seriously](https://rohiniross.com/spiritual-development/you-cant-stop-negative-thoughts-but-you-dont-have-to-take-them-seriously/) - Sometimes new clients think the understanding I share with them is too simple, and even long-term clients in a moment of distress can get frustrated and want me to give them something to do rather than point them in the direction of how their experience is created. It is always my intention to help my clients reduce their suffering. I believe the best way to do this is to help them see more clearly the full picture of where their experience comes from rather than giving them techniques and strategies to deal with a very narrow part of it. Trying to manage our experience also has the downside of reinforcing the idea that our upset is a real problem, rather than it simply being the result of buying into the illusion of our painful thoughts. Any technique or strategy used to manage an illusion is only going to make the illusion look more real. Freedom comes from seeing the illusion for what it is.
- [Sometimes Shame Gets the Better of Us](https://rohiniross.com/video-and-audio/he-said-she-said-sometimes-shame-gets-the-better-of-us/) - The best way we have found to navigate shame is to recognize when what we are thinking about is too sensitive to contemplate, and then put those thoughts on the back burner until we have more perspective.
- [Q & A for the Soul-Centered Series with Rohini Ross](https://rohiniross.com/spiritual-development/q-a-for-the-soul-centered-series-with-rohini-ross/) - Rohini shares the inspiration behind the program and how the understanding of the Principles has impacted her life.

- [White Bumps Are Neutral: I Can Live in Heaven or create Hell](https://rohiniross.com/self-love/white-bumps-are-neutral-i-can-live-in-heaven-or-create-hell/) - I do not consider myself a vain person. I tend not to fuss too much about my clothes or wear a lot of makeup. On the day that Angus and I first met, my hairdresser asked me to come in the back door and go up the back stairs so I wouldn’t be seen before he had time to do a makeover on me. I was a student at the time
- [Low Moods Pass Naturally](https://rohiniross.com/love/low-moods-pass-naturally/) - Our thinking can get really stirred up at times. The main warning sign that this is happening is a low mood. Low moods, however, don’t mean anything about us. They are temporary states of mind and will naturally pass. The less we do anything about them, and the less we try to fix our mood, the quicker we find ourselves
- [How the Principles Helped Me Go From One Foot Out the Door to Being "All In" in my Marriage](https://rohiniross.com/video-and-audio/how-the-principles-helped-me-go-from-one-foot-out-the-door-to-being-all-in-in-my-marriage/) - In this 3PGC webinar, Rohini speaks to how the understanding of the Principles transformed her relationship with herself and her husband. Instead of being at the effect of her insecure thinking, she was able to find an inner foundation of security that allowed her to be “all-in” in her marriage and her life.
- [The Soul-Centered Series Webinar with Cathy Casey](https://rohiniross.com/3-principles/the-soul-centered-series-webinar-with-cathy-casey/) - In this Webinar, Cathy shares her rich experience of sharing the Principles over the years. I loved hearing the story of her first meeting Sydney Banks. She makes the understanding so accessible, and I appreciated her profound acceptance of her humanity.

- [The Freedom of Not Being Important](https://rohiniross.com/3-principles/the-freedom-of-not-being-important-anxiety-panic-attacks/) - I have been working on video recordings to promote The Soul-Centered Series coming up in the fall. I am used to doing weekly Vlogs with Angus, but I am less used to recording video when it is just me. I noticed my increased level of preparation and reticence to speak off the cuff. Of course, the feedback I got was to speak more from my heart.
- [Dirty Smoothie Glasses Are Not the Source of Upset](https://rohiniross.com/3-principles/dirty-smoothie-glasses-are-not-the-source-of-upset/) - There are some practical tips in this Vlog like how to stop a golden retriever from throwing up on your rug. There is also a common sense advisory on not forcing a pregnant woman with morning sickness to eat. But an additional tip on what to do if you do. However, the main teaching point is the one that Angus and I
- [You Are a Miracle and Looking Toward Your Miraculous Nature is Very Practical](https://rohiniross.com/spirituality/you-are-a-miracle-and-looking-toward-your-miraculous-nature-is-very-practical/) - How is the understanding that we are spiritual beings having a human experience helpful within the practical context of living the human experience? How does understanding there is no self, and we are living in an illusion help when the form of our experience requires food, water, shelter, and air,
- [Rohini's Nocturnal Foibles](https://rohiniross.com/video-and-audio/rohinis-nocturnal-foibles/) - I have a reputation of being able to sleep through anything other than the slightest of electronic sounds. Angus makes a good point in the Vlog that the difference is that I have more thinking about electronic noises and judgments about him not turning off his phone than I do about other sounds and that is why I don’t sleep through them. Just another example of how thought creates our experience. So useful to be able to see the role thought plays in life. In a very practical way, I might just get less bothered when Angus forgets to turn his phone off at night.
- [The Soul-Centered Series Webinar with Dicken Bettinger](https://rohiniross.com/video-and-audio/the-soul-centered-series-webinar-with-dicken-bettinger/) - In this webinar, Dicken shares how the teachings of Sydney Banks shifted his work as a psychologist and his own views on personal development. Sydney Banks was the first person Dicken heard say that everyone has innate wellbeing inside of them but for their thinking. Here is the link to learn more about the six-month program The Soul-Centered Series: Psychology, Spirituality, and the Teachings of Sydney Banks that starts in October in Santa Monica: http://bit.ly/SoulCenteredSeries.
- [The Game of Life -- No One Gets Out Alive](https://rohiniross.com/less-stress-more-living/the-game-of-life-no-one-gets-out-alive/) - I am married to an Englishman who loves football, or soccer as they call it in the US, so I have been watching many of the World Cup soccer games and really enjoying them. I am actually surprised at how much fun I’ve been having. There have been a lot of nail-biter finishes being decided by penalty shootouts.
- [Teenage Shenanigans](https://rohiniross.com/video-and-audio/teenage-shenanigans/) - Parenting can be challenging at times, and parenting teenagers takes it to a whole other level. Angus and I recognize that we can both take our daughters’ behavior personally at times. When we do, we aren’t present to what is going on with them. We are caught up in our own stories, making it about us, and that does not help our parenting.
- [The Goal is Not to Change Emotional Experience, Just Remember the Source that Creates It](https://rohiniross.com/love/the-goal-is-not-to-change-emotional-experience-just-remember-the-source-that-creates-it/) - I have noticed how I can be critical. I can be sharp. I don’t mean to be, but I can have an edge. This occurs when my personal thinking is stirred up. I am feeling separate. My “I” is strong. Then other times when my thinking is more settled my “I” softens and my heart opens. I feel connected and more peaceful.
- [Angus and the Illusion of Listening](https://rohiniross.com/video-and-audio/angus-and-the-illusion-of-listening/) - Listening is something that is so natural and simple, yet many people, Angus and I included, don’t do it all the time. We think we are listening or we give the impression that we are listening, but we are not fully present. Our mind is elsewhere. When this happens we miss out on connection and intimacy with another, but ultimately what we miss is the connection with ourselves.
- [The Soul-Centered Series Webinar with Linda Pranksy](https://rohiniross.com/spiritual-development/the-soul-centered-series-webinar-with-linda-pranksy/)
- [Your Soul Sings the Song of Pleasure. Are You Ready to Dance?](https://rohiniross.com/self-love/your-soul-sings-the-song-of-pleasure-are-you-ready-to-dance/) - I am doing an intensive with a client this weekend. The emerging theme is following the pleasure of the formless. It is hard to imagine that following pleasure is not natural, but I understand this first hand. I used to automatically push myself. I wanted to compete.
- [Differences Are Only a Problem in a Low Mood](https://rohiniross.com/love/differences-only-exist-in-a-low-mood/) - I don’t really sleep under a tarpaulin. For some reason Angus has taken exception to my weighted blanket. And he can get annoyed with my temperature needs that are different than his own, even though I am used to wearing extra layers, especially in the car. But the point we are making is that from a good mood these differences are not issues or problems. The can be amusing, but they are not challenging. However, from a low mood they, and other differences between us, can look like real problems.
- [The Soul-Centered Series: Webinar With Elsie Spittle](https://rohiniross.com/3-principles/the-soul-centered-series-webinar-with-elsie-spittle/) - In this webinar, Elsie shares what she is seeing fresh regarding her understanding of the Principles. She takes you to the heart and soul of Sydney Banks's teaching and points beyond the words to the wisdom that is available to all of us.
- [I Am That Parent](https://rohiniross.com/parenting/i-am-that-parent/) - I started off my therapeutic career working with parents with adolescents who were struggling. I saw the impact of substance abuse, eating disorders, school refusal, violent outbursts, arrests, running away from home, suicide attempts, and self-harm on parents and families.
- [Rohini is Just So Forward](https://rohiniross.com/video-and-audio/rohini-is-just-so-forward/) - In this week’s Vlog, you get to see how Rohini's ability to take on the journey of life and course correct like a nimble sloop has shown a lot more virtue than Angus’ steady as you go freight ship! Rohini’s will to get out on the open sea as quickly as possible proves to be a lot more fruitful than Angus’ need to stay in the harbor worrying about the Leviathan.
- [The Answer to More Motivation and Greater Productivity](https://rohiniross.com/spiritual-development/the-answer-to-more-motivation-and-greater-productivity/) - As my writing teacher Jack Grapes says, process leads to product. What gets in the way of people engaging and producing is usually some form of overthinking. Because we don’t control our thinking it is not as easy as Bob Newhart would like us to believe to change our thoughts or our behavior by just stopping it.
- [Lost Car Key Frenzy](https://rohiniross.com/video-and-audio/lost-car-key-frenzy/) - Angus had an adventure with lost car keys. His fear of disappointing others got in the way of his clarity and he lost his bearings. He knew he was back on solid ground when he was able to find humor in the situation.
- [Test Event](https://rohiniross.com/events/test-event/)
- [Help, I Am Hurting! Where is My Peace of Mind?](https://rohiniross.com/less-stress-more-living/help-i-am-hurting-where-is-my-peace-of-mind/)
- [Changing Habitual Thought Patterns](https://rohiniross.com/video-and-audio/changing-habitual-thought-patterns/) - We all have habitual thought patterns. Neuroscience has coined Canadian neuropsychologist's phrase, “neurons that fire together wire together.” This is very useful for automated activities that we don’t want to have to relearn from scratch every time, but it becomes problematic when we develop negative neural pathways
- [Healing Comes From a Shift in Understanding](https://rohiniross.com/spiritual-development/transformation-comes-from-a-shift-in-understanding/) - I have been a fan of Tim Ferriss since he wrote the 4-Hour Workweek. I admire his zest for life and his willingness to try new things to improve the quality of his life. I also appreciate his generosity in sharing what he learns. I would love to have a conversation with him about the understanding of the Three Principles
- [Bossiness is in the Eye of the Beholder](https://rohiniross.com/video-and-audio/bossiness-is-in-the-eye-of-the-beholder/) - This is not an example of Angus at his best with listening. He normally does a better job of disguising his inattentiveness, but it is a good example of how we each live in our own separate reality. I can think I am being helpful and Angus can think I am bossy. What is even more amazing is I can be doing the same thing and from one state of mind, Angus can see me as helpful and from another state of mind he can see me as bossy. I can also be completely blind to my bossiness and see myself as an angel.
- [Love Is The Way Forward](https://rohiniross.com/spiritual-development/love-is-the-way-forward/) - I just watched the Royal Wedding of Prince Harry and Ms. Meghan Markle. I was surprised to find myself so deeply moved. I especially loved the rendition of ‘Stand By Me’ performed by Karen Gibson and the Kingdom Choir and Bishop Michael Curry’s Sermon. My favorite part of his sermon was:
- [Sh*t heads are love too!](https://rohiniross.com/relationships/he-said-she-said-sht-heads-are-love-too/) - Blooper included highlighting our message that there is room for humanness in life. We don’t always have to be our best. The world doesn’t end when we get reactive. I used to feel so fragile in the face of Angus’ reactivity and irritability. I wanted him to change. It never occurred to me that I didn’t have to take his behavior personally. I didn’t realize it was even possible, and I was blind to my own reactivity.
- [He Said, She Said: Separate Realities and Germs](https://rohiniross.com/video-and-audio/he-said-she-said-separate-realities-and-germs/)
- [Hold Infinity In The Palm of Your Hand and Do The Dishes](https://rohiniross.com/self-esteem/hold-infinity-in-the-palm-of-your-hand-and-do-the-dishes/) - I am writing this the day before Mother’s Day. I have just finished giving my husband Angus specific instructions regarding what I would like the day to be like tomorrow. There have been too many Mother’s Days with tears. According to Angus because I am not his mother there isn’t any responsibility on his part to do anything. I see it differently. I am not one to miss an opportunity to be celebrated.
- [Do You Ever Feel Worthless and Insecure and Want to Feel Better?](https://rohiniross.com/self-esteem/do-you-ever-feel-worthless-and-insecure-and-want-to-feel-better/) - Are you struggling with feelings of insecurity? Does it look like these feelings get in the way of your success and being able to relax and enjoy your life? I can absolutely relate. I used to be driven by my feelings of insecurity. I tried to outrun them by working hard. I pushed. I strived. I forced myself. I punished myself. I felt not good enough, and I believed I needed to work my way out of my low self-esteem. Self-improvement was my focus.
- [He Said, She Said: More on Angus' Absentmindedness](https://rohiniross.com/video-and-audio/he-said-she-said-more-on-angus-absentmindedness/) - This time Angus keeps his pants on but loses a baby. In order for our relationship to work, I needed to learn that my wellbeing was not dependent on Angus having a good memory or being focused. It looked like it was for many years, but finally, I got to see more clearly that my upset was not coming from his behavior.
- [He Said, She Said: Becoming Less Reactive to Criticism](https://rohiniross.com/relationships/he-said-she-said-becoming-less-reactive-to-criticism/) - Angus and I usually get a deeper understanding of the Principles before we present a workshop. This time we each got to learn from seeing how we can get reactive with each other related to brainstorming. From seeing this, we were able to take our sensitivities more lightly. This allowed the workshop preparation process to be so much more kind and fun. I had room for Angus to be sensitive to my comments and didn't take it personally if he got prickly. This allowed him to see he was reacting to his own thinking and not me. We each got to see our resilience more clearly.
- [What's Driving Your Behavior Your Shoulds or Your Inspiration?](https://rohiniross.com/personal-development/whats-driving-your-behavior-you-or-your-inspiration/) - I promise this is not a paid testimonial. Barb Patterson is a colleague and good friend. She is also a brilliant coach and a genius when it comes to business development. I love working with her in our Masterminds for Solopreneurs, and a few weeks ago, I got the personal benefit of participating in a Business Accelerator with her.
- [It Is Possible to Go From Super Sensitive to Anti-fragile in a Relationship](https://rohiniross.com/spiritual-development/it-is-possible-to-go-from-super-sensitive-to-anti-fragile-in-a-relationship/) - My husband and I have been married for 23 years. Our relationship began with a love at first sight moment
- [He Said, She Said: Authenticity in Relationships](https://rohiniross.com/video-and-audio/he-said-she-said-authenticity-in-relationships/) - In this week's Vlog, we point to the importance of authenticity for experiencing intimacy in relationships. This may be obvious, but it is not always easy. And sometimes it is invisible to us when we are not showing up in an honest way.
- [Sex and Marriage: Go Together Like a Horse and Carriage?](https://rohiniross.com/love/sex-and-marriage-go-together-like-a-horse-carriage/) - This week my husband Angus and I did our Friday Vlog about sex. He was reticent to talk about our experience in this area, but I managed to convince him to do it
- [Relationship Challenges Aren't Solved With Communication Skills](https://rohiniross.com/love/relationship-challenges-arent-solved-with-communication-skills/) - In his book, The Seven Principles for Making Marriage Work, John Gottman identifies criticism, contempt, defensiveness and stonewalling as the Four Horseman of the Apocalypse that predict the demise of a relationship. These styles of communication are all indicators that goodwill in the relationship is dismally low. Traditional relationship advice is to learn behavioral and communication skills to keep these four horsemen at bay. What this advice misses, however, is that couples don't have communication problems. They have challenges as the result of diminished goodwill. When there is a good feeling between two people, communication is never the problem, even when there are language barriers. Therefore, the focus on learning communication skills and techniques misses the actual problem.
- [He Said, She Said: Eliminating Relationship Baggage](https://rohiniross.com/video-and-audio/he-said-she-said-eliminating-relationship-baggage/) - Angus recalls the time I barricaded him out of our apartment, and then my therapist told me I had abandonment issues. Angus thought he brought his own baggage to our relationship as well. We both accepted these limitations as part of who we were and resigned ourselves to a challenging relationship because of them.
- [Becoming Discouragement Proof and Appreciating The Unknown](https://rohiniross.com/spiritual-development/becoming-discouragement-proof-and-appreciating-the-unknown/) - A typical learning curve has a slow beginning followed by steep acceleration until it eventually evens out into a plateau. It is common when I work with clients for them to be hard on themselves and to become discouraged during this stage. I hear comments like: “I don’t know what I’m doing.” “I’m stuck.”
- [He Said, She Said: Problems Are a State of Mind](https://rohiniross.com/video-and-audio/he-said-she-said-problems-are-a-state-of-mind/) - Do you have a problem in your life? Angus thought he had a real problem when our rescue pup Niko would not let us sit on the couch without jumping on us and biting us. He wasn’t aggressive. He was just trying to play. But his play was rough, and he wouldn’t stop.
- [Being an Imperfect Mother is Good for Your Kids](https://rohiniross.com/parenting/being-an-imperfect-mother-is-good-for-your-kids/) - I heard one of my teacher's at the University of Santa Monica, Ron Hulnick Ph.D. say that you cannot damage your kids. This flies in the face of traditional psychology that believes a healthy attachment to the primary caregiver is what results in well-adjusted and happy children. However, from a spiritual perspective,
- [He Said, She Said: Angus's Screen Saver Mode](https://rohiniross.com/relationships/he-said-she-said-anguss-screen-saver-mode/) - Angus shares how he needs time to rev up in the mornings, and how when he chills, he goes into screen saver mode. This mode can result in communication problems with Rohini because she thinks Angus's brain is fully functioning when it is actually off-line. Angus sees the benefit of letting her know when he needs space so he doesn't get resentful and so there aren't misunderstandings. Join Angus and Rohini at their upcoming workshop in Topanga April 28-29. Click here for more information.
- [Are You Fueled by Insecurity or Inspiration?](https://rohiniross.com/spiritual-development/are-you-fueled-by-insecurity-or-inspiration/) - Barb Patterson and I are preparing for our next Engaged Space 30-Day experiment. This is an opportunity to play with being engaged in an area of your life in a light-hearted way and discover what reveals itself to you.
- [Amber Krzys Interview with Rohini Ross on Partnership](https://rohiniross.com/spiritual-development/amber-krzys-interview-with-rohini-ross-on-partnership/) - Do you ever feel like your thoughts are keeping you up at night—a kind of runaway train that you’re unable to stop? This is one of many questions I explored in my recent interview with Rohini, and I must say, her answer may surprise you.
- [He Said, She Said: Understanding Is What is Needed to Find Solution for Public Safety](https://rohiniross.com/activism/he-said-she-said-understanding-is-what-is-needed-to-find-solution-for-public-safety/) - Shootings are the result of someone with a destabilized mind buying into the misunderstanding that acting on their destabilized thinking is a good idea. We support restricting access to guns. Others disagree. We hold space for understanding. #NeverAgain
- [Don't Be Afraid of Your Coping Mechanisms: They Are Your Best Wisdom in the Moment](https://rohiniross.com/less-stress-more-living/dont-be-afraid-of-your-coping-mechanisms-they-are-your-best-wisdom-in-the-moment/) - I like the feeling of being on top of things. This is a comfortable place for my ego to hang out. I can get smug about this and feel very pleased with myself. Look at me! Look at how together I am! There are also times of growth that I really enjoy. When I am stepping into the unknown and don't have anything figured out. This experience is fun and exhilarating. I enjoy both the comfort of the known and the excitement of the unknown. What I have more trouble enjoying and appreciating is the mess.
- [He Said, She Said: Sex and Connection](https://rohiniross.com/video-and-audio/he-said-she-said-sex-and-connection/) - Is it Shrek? Is it a giant and a pygmy in a shed, or is it Angus and Rohini in their sauna talking about what used to get in the way of sex? Or how even now they may have to navigate different levels of desire. As Angus says, it is all about connection. There is more than one way to get there, but that is what we both want.
- [He Said, She Said: More Peace, Less Reactivity](https://rohiniross.com/video-and-audio/he-said-she-said-less-reactivity-more-peace/) - Angus shares how he is experiencing greater freedom from his reactive thoughts. He can have them without feeling compelled to act on them. I can certainly take a leaf out of his book. We are enjoying the peace and looking forward to a relaxing weekend of recharging!
- [Awakening from Perfectionism to the Raw, Juicy, Messy, Freedom of Magnificent You!](https://rohiniross.com/self-love/awakening-from-perfectionism/) - I am starting to write a book about waking up from perfectionism. The idea began as a memoir, but after speaking with my writing coach, who is also a publisher, it made more sense to write it in the format of a "self-help" book. This means I am doing all kinds of research on perfectionism and the various psychological approaches to address it.
- [Optimal Performance With or Without Confidence](https://rohiniross.com/emotional-intelligence/optimal-performance-with-or-without-confidence/) - I've been preparing for a corporate training next week and the theme they want to explore is confidence. There are two things that occur to me about confidence right now: 1. Confidence is our natural state. 2. It doesn't matter if we feel confident or not.
- [He Said, She Said: Getting a Thicker Skin is Good for Relationships](https://rohiniross.com/love/he-said-she-said-getting-a-thicker-skin-is-good-for-relationships/) - Angus re-enacts a prank he played on me that he thought would be funny but that actually terrified me. I may not be ready for more pranks, but I have got a lot better about not taking things personally. This has made our relationship so much easier. I love the greater levels of light-heartedness we both experience simply from seeing the fluid nature of thought and experience and recognizing our natural tendency as human beings is to drop into feelings of love and wellbeing -- so reassuring!
- [The Big 5-0!](https://rohiniross.com/self-love/the-big-5-0/) - This weekend, thanks to my amazing husband Angus, I got to celebrate my 5oth birthday! My actual birthday was in November, but based on the busyness of life, we had the party this Saturday! This, however, worked out perfectly because on my actual birthday or beloved dog Bella was seriously ill
- [He Said, She Said: Not Feasting on Negative Thoughts](https://rohiniross.com/video-and-audio/he-said-she-said-not-feasting-on-negative-thoughts/) - I have forced Angus to throw me a 50th birthday party against his will. You will find out what a mean wife I am. Angus also shares some pearls of wisdom about not feasting on his negative thoughts.
- [Less Angst, More Freedom](https://rohiniross.com/3-principles/less-issues-more-freedom/) - I have just finished the Pransky & Associates Professional training and feel filled up with beautiful feelings. I am struck by how profound and transformative the experience was. It is so freeing to see even more clearly that humans have no issues to resolve.
- [He Said, She Said: One Year Vlog Anniversary](https://rohiniross.com/spiritual-development/he-said-she-said-one-year-vlog-anniversary/) - We are celebrating our year anniversary of doing the Vlog! Thank you for all of you support and kindness! We so appreciate being in this exploration with YOU. It is music to our ears when we here the Vlog has been helpful or even that it has simply brought you a smile. And Angus did realize the song is by Human League and not The Killers. Sending you love!
- [Owning Anger to Find More Peace in Marriage](https://rohiniross.com/relationships/owning-anger-to-find-more-peace-in-marriage/) - My husband Angus said to me recently that I have not been myself. He said I have had more of an edge, been more critical, more impatient, more controlling
- [It Is Not Always Obvious When Opportunity Comes Knocking](https://rohiniross.com/spiritual-development/it-is-not-always-obvious-when-opportunity-comes-knocking/) - I never imagined I would be able to make good money in a sustainable way. Before getting married I was a student who received scholarships to go to school, and then I worked as a model.
- [He Said, She Said: The Quiet Nest Before the Empty Nest](https://rohiniross.com/video-and-audio/he-said-she-said-the-quiet-nest-before-the-empty-nest/) - I am missing spending more time with our teenage girls as their lives are so busy. Angus reminds me of how normal and healthy this is. I see now that my struggle could be perceived as a criticism of them and give the message that they are doing something wrong. My opportunity is to get more comfortable with the quiet nest so they know everything is okay and on track, and to look for the opportunities we do have to enjoy each others company. Angus has an opportunity to accept his bad hair day and not compensate with "hat hair".
- [He Said, She Said: Getting Comfortable in the Unknown](https://rohiniross.com/video-and-audio/he-said-she-said-getting-comfortable-in-the-unknown/) - Life is more fun when we get comfortable being in the unknown. It is funny that we even get uncomfortable because we are all actually living in the unknown moment to moment. But we kid ourselves into thinking that we have a comfort zone, and get uncomfortable when we think we are outside of it. The truth is a comfort zone doesn't exist. It is a made up idea. When we see this, it gets easier being comfortable with what is.
- [He Said, She Said: Angus's Big Problem in Our Marriage](https://rohiniross.com/video-and-audio/he-said-she-said-anguss-big-problem-in-our-marriage/) - Who knew Angus has a big problem with me?! It wasn't what I thought it would be. Of my many character weaknesses and personality quirks it was not on the top
- [In Celebration of Martin Luther King Jr. -- Let Love Transform Us All](https://rohiniross.com/love/in-celebration-of-martin-luther-king-jr-let-love-transform-us-all/) - Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that. -- Martin Luther King, Jr. Today is Martin Luther King Jr. day in the United States. It is a holiday that commemorates Dr. King's life and work. He lead a movement for racial justice and equality, and embraced nonviolent action as a powerful revolutionary force for social change. He employed Gandhi's philosophy of nonviolence as the means to confront racist laws and discrimination in America. His work made a significant contribution to President Lyndon Johnson signing into law the historic Civil Rights Act, and he was the youngest man to receive the Nobel Peace Prize in 1964.
- [Would You Rather Be Happy or Would You Rather Be Free?](https://rohiniross.com/self-love/would-you-rather-be-happy-or-would-you-rather-be-free/) - You have probably heard the expression would your rather be right or would you rather be happy? And it is a helpful reminder that holding on rigidly to a position creates suffering. However, during this weekend while teaching a workshop, with Dicken Bettinger and Barb Patterson, a different version occurred to me. It was, "Would you rather be happy, or would you rather free?"
- [He Said, She Said: Fighting sucks, but it is not the end of the world](https://rohiniross.com/spiritual-development/relationships-love-marriage-fighting-sucks-but-it-is-not-the-end-of-the-world/) - We thought we would get more sleep with teenagers. They don't wake up until noon when they are on vacation, but we forgot the flip side of the late nights. Angus and I were feeling a little worse for wear from lack of sleep, and we really got duped by our reactive thinking. We both fell into believing it, and woke up believing too. That is highly unusual for us now, but it happened nonetheless. We eventually settled. We finally saw each other more clearly, and felt the love that is.
- [He Said, She Said: Cultural Differences Don't Have to Create Drama](https://rohiniross.com/spiritual-development/he-said-she-said-cultural-differences-dont-have-to-create-drama/) - Angus accuses Rohini of being a barbarian because of how she holds her fork, and she manages to not stab him with it. That is progress!
- [Half a Cup of Criticism and a Gallon of Vitriol](https://rohiniross.com/video-and-audio/half-a-cup-of-criticism-and-a-gallon-of-vitriol/) - A recipe for relationship disaster, but with the understanding that these dire moments are only temporary, and they do not reflect the love that is real, it is much easier to get over resentment and upset. Our marriage is so much more fun and easy now we don't take our worst moments seriously. We recognize they are only a reflection of being temporarily destabilized. It is a relief to have room for our humanness in our marriage and to see the amazing ability we have to bounce back and feel the love in our hearts.
- [Letting Go of Judgment and World Peace: What Do They Have in Common?](https://rohiniross.com/spiritual-development/letting-go-of-judgment-and-world-peace-what-do-they-have-in-common/) - Do I judge an animal for lashing out when it is backed into a corner and scared? No, I feel compassion. I am not condoning any harm the animal does, but I am also not in judgment. I am not adding more suffering to that situation. In my lack of understanding, I had taken a position against suffering. All this did was reinforce suffering by judging the form of what was created rather than seeing it as a by-product.
- [He Said, She Said: Gratitude](https://rohiniross.com/video-and-audio/he-said-she-said-gratitude/) - In the Vlog, Angus reminisces about the old days when I would get anxious if we didn't have some where to go for Thanksgiving and then goes off on a tangent
- [Laughter, Tears and Gratitude: Tis better to have loved and lost, than never to have loved at all](https://rohiniross.com/3-principles/grief-loss-laughter-tears-and-gratitude-tis-better-to-have-loved-and-lost-than-never-to-have-loved-at-all/) - Bella came to us through serendipity. Our family, consisting of Angus, our two daughters of nine and six, and myself, had discussed getting a dog, but I had two requirements. I wanted a hypoallergenic dog, and I wanted a rescue dog. With these requirements in place, getting a dog seemed near impossible. Or so I thought.
- [He Said, She Said: A Bump in the Bed](https://rohiniross.com/video-and-audio/he-said-she-said-a-bump-in-the-bed/)
- [Love is Our Superpower](https://rohiniross.com/spiritual-development/reslience-love-is-our-superpower/) - Resilience is often seen as getting tougher. There is a whole field of mental toughness training and the focus on effort and hard work to accomplish achievement by pushing through. I have just spent the weekend immersed in the Three Principles and the implications of this understanding on resilience. Rather than feeling toughened up, I feel softer. My heart feels more open. I feel less reserved and freer to be myself. I have a deeper knowing that my true strength and power do not come from my personal effort, but rather from an opening up to something greater than myself. I feel more deeply the power of love and the strength of heart.
- [He Said, She Said: You're Not Listening!](https://rohiniross.com/video-and-audio/he-said-she-said-youre-not-listening/) - Angus and I have different tempos of communication. I tend to be more rapid fire, whereas Angus likes to take his time assimilating information.
- [The World Needs More Heart](https://rohiniross.com/spiritual-development/the-world-needs-more-heart/) - I am looking forward to participating in the Resiliency Track for The Awesome Event happening this weekend October 27-29 in Charlottesville, VA.
- [Free Webinar: The Three Principles and Relationships](https://rohiniross.com/spiritual-development/free-webinar-the-three-principles-and-relationships/) - Join Angus and I for this webinar where we will share the impact the understanding of the Three Principles has had on our relationship, and how it can help you have greater intimacy, less conflict, and fall in love even more in yours. Or if you are single, and want to be in relationship, we will explore how this understanding can support being more engaged and open to being in an intimate, loving relationship.
- [He Said, She Said: Emotional Waterboarding](https://rohiniross.com/love/he-said-she-said-emotional-waterboarding/) - Angus and Rohini Ross share their relationship advice about a common relationship pitfall of trying to works things out from a low state of mind.
- [How is a Spiritual Understanding Helpful When You Feel Overwhelmed?](https://rohiniross.com/spiritual-development/how-is-a-spiritual-understanding-helpful-when-you-feel-overwhelmed-by-your-feelings/) - I have been navigating some turbulent times. Difficult things are happening around me, an unexpected death, bad news for a friend related to a serious health dx
- [Primal Blueprint Podcast #188 Rohini Ross](https://rohiniross.com/spiritual-development/primal-blueprint-podcast-188-rohini-ross/) - Elle Russ chats with Rohini Ross - a Psychotherapist, Leadership Consultant, Transformative Coach and a regular blogger for the Huffington Post.
- [He Said, She Said: Angus, Snogging, and Rejection Phobia](https://rohiniross.com/video-and-audio/he-said-she-said-angus-snogging-and-rejection-phobia/) - This week I get accused of being nosey because I was curious about our teenagers love lives, or lack there of, but their unwillingness to be forthcoming leads
- [Sacrificing Special for the Freedom of Ordinary](https://rohiniross.com/spiritual-development/sacrificing-special-for-the-freedom-of-ordinary/)
- [He Said, She Said: Authenticity](https://rohiniross.com/spiritual-development/he-said-she-said-authenticity/) - This week Angus gets serious, while I am still plotting my prank. Angus points to the benefits of not looking at the scoreboard and instead enjoying being in the present moment and playing the game life to the best of our abilities. Very wise of him!
- [Service as a Path to Freedom](https://rohiniross.com/life-lessons/service-as-a-path-to-freedom/) - I spent the weekend at the Valley State Prison for men. The focus of this service learning opportunity with the Freedom to Choose Project was to help the men
- [He Said, She Said: Humor Wins Over Seriousness](https://rohiniross.com/love/he-said-she-said-humor-wins-over-seriousness/) - Angus derails my seriousness, but concurs that chronic stress is not good for relationships. The good news is that stress is an inside job. When you see this, it makes it so much easier to drop the stressful thinking, and then you naturally get filled up with your innate wellbeing. Relationships thrive when people experience their innate wellbeing and recognize stressful thinking will disappear on its own when left alone. Goodwill is contagious!
- [How are You Going to Share Your Magnificence in the World?](https://rohiniross.com/spiritual-development/how-are-you-going-to-share-your-magnificence-in-the-world/) - I have the blessing and pleasure of teaching with two amazing women this weekend Barb Patterson and Elsie Spittle. Barb Patterson and I often teach together on our Mastermind for Solopreneurs, and will be doing the experiment of the Engaged Space together next week, but this is the first time we are teaching together in person. Elsie Spittle is the first teacher of the Three Principles and knew Sydney Banks, the man who uncovered the principles, before he had his enlightenment experience. It is an honor to be in the conversation with her.
- [He Said, She Said: Eccentricities and Quirks Charming or Deal-breakers](https://rohiniross.com/relationships/he-said-she-said-eccentricities-and-quirks-charming-or-deal-breakers/)
- [He Said, She Said: Don't Tell Me I'm Not Going to Die!](https://rohiniross.com/video-and-audio/he-said-she-said-dont-tell-me-im-not-going-to-die/) - This week Angus and I share our birth story number two. It is even more intense than number 1. In terms of the general learning, it was an example of Angus
- [A Reformed Commitment-Phobe: Who Knew a Relationship Could be so Fun and Easy](https://rohiniross.com/spiritual-development/the-journey-of-reformed-commitment-phobe-who-knew-a-relationship-could-be-this-easyrelationship-advice/) - There was a theme that really struck a chord with me and that was the importance of commitment. It is simply easier to be 100% committed in a relationship
- [Seeing We Hallucinate Reality Helps Relationships](https://rohiniross.com/3-principles/seeing-that-we-hallucinate-reality-helps-relationships/) - I recently watched Anil Seth's Ted Talk Your Brain Hallucinates Your Conscious Reality. His research affirms Anaïs Nin's quote, "We don't see the world as it is
- [He Said, She Said: Don't Let Your Thinking Stop You](https://rohiniross.com/video-and-audio/he-said-she-said-dont-let-your-thinking-stop-you/) - Angus is experiencing Vlog block due to getting caught up in his insecure thinking, but he proceeds anyway! I recognize the benefit of stepping into the unknown and seeing what emerges. Life has too many variables to work everything out ahead of time. Being responsive in the moment, real-time, is what is most important. This proved true when Angus was driving us to the hospital when I was in labor with our eldest daughter.
- [He Said, She Said: Angus's Absentmindedness](https://rohiniross.com/video-and-audio/he-said-she-said-anguss-absentmindedness/) - There is a lot going on in this week's Vlog. We get photo bombed by our eldest daughter. Angus learns to keep his pants on and not check in at seedy motels on Facebook. On a more serious note, I see how my irritation with Angus's absent mindedness is only ever a result of the story in my head and nothing to do with him. Angus recognizes how he can use his feelings as a compass to let him know when it is not a good time to engage in communication with me.
- [The Problem is Fear. The By-Product is Violence. The Solution is Love.](https://rohiniross.com/spiritual-development/the-problem-is-fear-the-by-product-is-violence-the-solution-is-love/) - The enemy is fear. We think it is hate; but it is fear. ~ Gandhi I remember waiting on the platform of the underground in London when the station was flooded
- [He Said, She Said: Isolation Tank Mishaps](https://rohiniross.com/spiritual-development/he-said-she-said-isolation-tank-mishaps/) - I thought it would be fun to experience a float. So Angus and I signed up to go in isolation tanks for two hours. I was concerned I might get claustrophobic, but it turns out I had quite a relaxing time of it. Angus on the other hand was up and down like a jack-in-the box.
- [He Said, She Said: Panic Attacks and Bouncing Back](https://rohiniross.com/video-and-audio/he-said-she-said-panic-attacks-and-bouncing-back/) - This week I share my experience getting up close and personal with a panic attack. Angus shares an experience of sheer panic from years ago. It is amazing the power our thoughts have on our physiology as is our innate capacity to bounce back. It is such a relief to know we are designed to stabilize without any effort needed on our part. Seeing this makes it so much easier for me to surrender into what is -- at least more often. Add there is a good lesson on safe sex too!
- [Don't Miss Out on Life Waiting to Hear Your Wisdom](https://rohiniross.com/spiritual-development/dont-miss-out-on-life-while-you-wait-to-hear-your-wisdom/) - This week I had the pleasure of being a guest on Phil Goddard's The Coaching Life Podcast. At the end of the podcast he summed up a theme from the interview as the importance of listening for what is right for you and taking action on it.
- [He Said, She Said: Separate Realities](https://rohiniross.com/video-and-audio/he-said-she-said-separate-realities/) - Angus and I had a brutal encounter with separate realities on our hike. It left both of us feeling shaken. Neither of us did a good job of trying to find common ground with the other person. We were caught up in our position that he was doing something wrong. It gives us pause to reflect on how to navigate difference with compassion and understanding real-time.
- [Inspiration Takes Care of the How To](https://rohiniross.com/performance/inspiration-takes-care-of-the-how-to/) - I remember my first coach Steve Chandler telling me the "how to" is never the problem. The challenge is always with the "want to". If the "want to" is big enough people always figure out the "how to".
- [He Said, She Said: The Pressure of Expectations Can be Paralyzing](https://rohiniross.com/video-and-audio/he-said-she-said-the-pressure-of-expectations-can-be-paralyzing/) - It is so easy for perfectionism and caring about how we look to get in the way of staying in the game. This week Angus shares how he sees his desire to look good has stopped him from moving forward in the past, and maybe a little bit now. I see how having no expectations allows me to enjoy the moment more. This applies to movies and life in general.
- [Recovering From Perfectionism by Seeing Self-Worth Doesn't Exist](https://rohiniross.com/spiritual-development/recovering-from-perfectionism-by-seeing-self-worth-doesnt-exist/) - The second Mastermind for Solopreneurs that Barb Patterson and I co-facilitate is coming to completion next week. One of the themes we explored in the program is getting comfortable in the unknown.
- [Rebels Unleashed - Dealing with problems in a relationship! A different take!](https://rohiniross.com/spiritual-development/rebels-unleashed-dealing-with-problems-in-a-relationship-a-different-take/) - Rohini and I talk about her story, the story of her marriage to be exact, the crisis, the conflict, the misunderstandings and the divorce on the horizon.
- [Deep Peace Cannot be Destroyed -- Not even by Teenagers](https://rohiniross.com/spiritual-development/deep-peace-cannot-be-destroyed-not-even-by-teenagers/) - I was participating in the Global Peace & Love Meditation on Sunday facilitated by Julianne Chazotte. While listening to her guided meditation, I was filled with deep feelings of love and peace.
- [He Said, She Said: Assumptions aren't Truth](https://rohiniross.com/video-and-audio/he-said-she-said-assumptions-arent-truth/) - It is easy to make assumptions, but they are often inaccurate -- sometimes in very amusing ways. Angus and I both make wrong assumptions about dogs. Also, I still don't understand Angus' English sense of humor, and take him too seriously even after all these years together.
- [You are the Dreamer: See that and You See Your Infinite Potential](https://rohiniross.com/spiritual-development/you-are-the-dreamer-see-that-and-you-see-your-infinite-potential/) - This thought occurred to me this week, "Our job is not to change the dream. It is to wake up from the dream, and then dream the dream from that awakening." Once we see we are the dreamer, we live in the dream in a completely different way.
- [He Said, She Said: Annoying Habits](https://rohiniross.com/video-and-audio/he-said-she-said-annoying-habits/) - This week’s Vlog is about my annoying habits. Angus talks about some of my habits that he no longer finds annoying because he understands that he feels his thinking and not my behavior. This helped me to get over being stubborn about my behavior. He also fesses up to some OCD quirks of his own.
- [Change is Easy When Reality is Paper-Thin](https://rohiniross.com/spiritual-development/change-is-easy-when-reality-is-paper-thin/) - I have been thinking about how amazing it is that we each live in our own separate reality that we create. We see our thinking and feel it. Each of us experiences the world uniquely. Our reality looks very solid and consistent, but we are creating it moment to moment. As one of my clients said recently, reality is paper-thin. In fact, it is even thinner than that. Thought has no weight and can shift in an instant.

In this interview series, we’ll be discovering and uncovering the nature of Womanhood from the Inside-Out? Why it's important? When does it show? How can we identify it? And what are the implications of Womanhood from the Inside-Out? You can reach me at https://www.facebook.com/clesia.mendes or http://www.clesiamendes.com/
- [How Does Personal Change Happen?](https://rohiniross.com/3-principles/how-does-personal-change-happen/) - I was listening to a 3PGC talk recently and heard Chip Chipman say, "The true self cannot be described. It can only be felt." I had an "aha!" moment and understood more clearly what Sydney Banks was pointing to when he says in his recordings, "The wisdom is in the feeling."
- [He Said, She Said: A Simple Life](https://rohiniross.com/less-stress-more-living/he-said-she-said-a-simple-life/) - A very windy Vlog encouraging us all to slow down and take the pressure off ourselves. We can trust in our deeper feelings of love and wisdom to guide us. There is a simplicity in living life this way -- one step at a time -- rather than over complicating things.
- [A Deal Breaker Today Could Rule Out the Love of Your Life Tomorrow](https://rohiniross.com/love/a-deal-breaker-today-could-rule-out-the-love-of-your-life-tomorrow/) - Angus and I have been working with several couples recently where the subject of deal breakers has come up. They thought it would be a good idea to clarify deal breakers in service to deciding whether or not to move forward with their relationships. When I look back on my relationship with Angus, I realize there were many things that I would have considered to be deal breakers early on in our relationship if I had thought this way, but they turned out not to be.
- [He Said, She Said: Letting Go and Getting Reflective Beats Freaking Out](https://rohiniross.com/spiritual-development/he-said-she-said-letting-go-and-getting-reflective-beats-freaking-out/) - Angus and I are spending a few days in a northern paradise while we attend the 3P school. I love what Angus shares about how as soon as he stopped focusing on his upset and got more reflective, his mind relaxed
- [There is No Solid You -- You Are Infinite Potential](https://rohiniross.com/spiritual-development/there-is-no-solid-you-you-are-infinite-potential/) - I was in a discussion group this week and writer's block was mentioned. It never occurred to me that I could get writer's block. Then as soon as I started thinking about it, I started to worry about it happening to me. It was the equivalent of medical student's disease. This happens when medical students experience the symptoms of the disease they are studying. I started to bring the experience of writer's block into fruition just by thinking about it.

- [He Said, She Said: Differences Are Not the Problem in Relationships](https://rohiniross.com/video-and-audio/he-said-she-said-differences-are-not-the-problem-in-relationships/) - Angus is nearly ready to walk off the Vlog again because I mention that couples have different preferences related to frequency of sex. I'm not sure why he was so freaked out by this. All I was saying is that differences are often seen as the problem in relationships, and are perceived as the cause of incompatibility, when the real culprit is being caught up in negative thinking.
- [He Said, She Said: Denying Restorative Cuddles Is Bad For Rapport](https://rohiniross.com/video-and-audio/he-said-she-said-denying-restorative-cuddles-is-bad-for-rapport/) - Angus shares how invisible thinking can be at times related to low moods, and how easy it is for conflict to ensue.

- [Under Pressure: Until We See How We Make The Pressure Up](https://rohiniross.com/spiritual-development/under-pressure-until-we-see-how-we-make-the-pressure-up/) - I wrote in a Facebook comment for Angus' and my Vlog that perhaps we should stop calling what we do transformational coaching and call it "just be yourself coaching".
- [Waking Up to Our True Nature Is the Solution](https://rohiniross.com/spiritual-development/waking-up-to-our-true-nature-is-the-solution/) - I used to think my spiritual awakening needed me to work on myself. I thought if I did enough spiritual practices or personal growth work that I would arrive somewhere.
- [He Said, She Said: Angus Does His Impersonation of a Bobblehead](https://rohiniross.com/video-and-audio/he-said-she-said-angus-does-his-impersonation-of-a-bobblehead/) - Angus thinks he is just a pretty face. He doesn't realize how much value his presence and insights add to the Vlogs. But he does bring a good feeling today even if Rohini bores him.
- [Real Wisdom is Measured by an Open Heart](https://rohiniross.com/spiritual-development/real-wisdom-is-measured-by-an-open-heart/) - When I entered the U.K. on my latest trip, I was asked by the customs official what I do for a living. I thought I would keep it simple and rather than tell him all of the things I do from coaching, to training, to therapy, I told him I am a psychotherapist and here for a conference.
- [He Said, She Said: Arguments Aren't the End of the World](https://rohiniross.com/video-and-audio/he-said-she-said-arguments-arent-the-end-of-the-world/) - We are not perfect! Sometimes we don't listen to our own sensible advice. The good news is we are resilient and able to get over ourselves.
- [Live Big and Bold Not Perfect!](https://rohiniross.com/self-love/live-big-and-bold-not-perfect/) - I help people wake up more fully to the perfection of who they are -- exactly as they are. Success is the by-product of allowing our natural genius to express itself. We get better results in all areas of our life as a result of experiencing our true nature and allowing our deeper wisdom to guide us.
- [He Said, She Said: Forgetfulness isn't Personal](https://rohiniross.com/video-and-audio/he-said-she-said-love-is-our-super-power/) - Angus is not forgetful. He is just living in the present moment. Rohini has an opportunity to not take Angus' ultra zen present moment way of being personally.
- [How Getting Comfortable Being Uncomfortable Changed My Life - 3PGC Webinar](https://rohiniross.com/self-love/how-getting-comfortable-being-uncomfortable-changed-my-life/) - Being impacted by the Principles has transformed my life and supported me with having greater impact on the lives of my clients. When I look back at what supported the transformation, I see that I experienced a dramatic shift when I just got comfortable being uncomfortable.
- [The Paradox of Low Moods and Innate Wellbeing](https://rohiniross.com/spiritual-development/the-paradox-of-low-moods-and-innate-wellbeing/) - I have a reputation for being an experimenter with my health. I came across naturopathic medicine in my twenties, and my eyes were opened to the myriad of holistic choices
- [He Said, She Said: Let's Talk About Sex](https://rohiniross.com/love/he-said-she-said-lets-talk-about-sex/) - Much to Angus' chagrin that is the topic of this week's Vlog. We discuss how we were both able to overcome the polarization we experienced in this area of our relationship.

- [He Said, She Said: We Aren't Out of the Woods Yet Regarding Taxes](https://rohiniross.com/spiritual-development/he-said-she-said-we-arent-out-of-the-woods-yet-regarding-taxes/) - Sometimes it really looks like circumstances create our experience. Angus and I are both struggling with that. But knowing that our experience comes from inside of us no matter how it looks the other way, helps us to have a cushion from our distressed thinking, and look in the direction of equanimity rather than create more imbalance for ourselves -- even when it comes to the government and taxes!
- [Success is the By-Product of a Clear State of Mind](https://rohiniross.com/spiritual-development/success-is-the-by-product-of-a-clear-state-of-mind/) - Barbara Patterson and I are launching our second Mastermind this week.

- [We are Not Human or Spiritual -- We Are Both](https://rohiniross.com/spiritual-development/we-are-not-human-or-spiritual-we-are-both/) - Last week I wrote about spiritual bypass.

- [He Said, She Said: Moving Beyond the Inner Critic](https://rohiniross.com/less-stress-more-living/he-said-she-said-moving-beyond-the-inner-critic/) - Angus shares his experience of breaking free from his inner critic. And it is either monkeys or Nike that said, "Just do it!".

- [You Can Wake Up From the Illusion of Your Insecurities](https://rohiniross.com/spiritual-development/you-can-wake-up-from-the-illusion-of-your-insecurities/) - There are times when self-worth is not an issue for me. I don’t think about it. I confidently do whatever I need to do. I feel self-assured.

- [Let Go of Low Self-Esteem and Insecurity](https://rohiniross.com/spiritual-development/let-go-of-low-self-esteem-and-insecurity/) - One of the things that put me off writing in the past was the blank page. I didn’t know what to write. I didn’t trust that something, anything, would come forward.

- [Time to De-Stress and Relax: You Have Arrived!](https://rohiniross.com/self-love/time-to-de-stress-and-relax-you-have-arrived/) - I was hesitant to share this piece because it is an exploration of ideas. It is an area I am grappling with, and, as a result, it felt half-baked and awkward.

- [He Said, She Said: Trash Talk](https://rohiniross.com/love/he-said-she-said-trash-talk/) - Angus provides a wonderful example of distracted listening. Rohini shares how seeing that she creates her experience helped her to be less reactive. It is so freeing to see that emotional reactions are an arbitrary reflection of thinking in the moment. Who knew garbage could be therapeutic!
- [From Nothing Comes Everything](https://rohiniross.com/spiritual-development/from-nothing-comes-everything/) - I am a the product of East meets West. I have a Sri Lankan father and an English mother. When it comes to spirituality, I like the best of both worlds. In the East emptiness is sought and revered. In the West it is feared and seen as nihilistic. The West seems to prefer the fullness of love. For me, both are true.

- ["What Is" Beats a Good Idea Every Time!](https://rohiniross.com/spiritual-development/what-is-beats-a-good-idea-every-time/) - I have ideas about God. They are not God. I have ideas about spirituality. They are not spirituality. This is of course common sense, but I didn't realize
