No matter what, when there is never enough of something we want, we perceive ourselves to be a victim of scarcity. Always viewing yourself, or your lifestyle, through the lens of scarcity results in your feeling unfulfilled. When we are unfulfilled, poverty becomes a permanent state of mind. Our perceptions of abundance or scarcity began in our childhood. If we were raised in a family … [Read more...]
Healing the Rift
"Science is not only compatible with spirituality; it is a profound source of spirituality" - Carl Sagan Summer was in its glory in the Central Valley of California. Leo Kim, who would grow up to become a biochemist and work to find ways to stimulate the body's own defense system to fight cancer, was only a young boy, a Cub Scout.

World-Sound for Harmony
When I was a child I was feeling the Music as something higher and softer that, at the same time, could be part of my daily life and it could be with me in the ordinary activities, something accessible in every moment. I started my path of listening, studying and experimenting, passing through the channels that were available for me in that moment - in a friend's garage, a guitar teacher from the parish church, and local concerts.During this growth I realized that the "Musical World" … [Read more...]
Excerpts from “Healing the Rift”
Many non-spiritual people subscribe to the belief that our world is the result of matter - composed of tiny billiard ball-like entities.

I Saw the Light: How a Reiki Course Radically Transformed my Life
Several years ago I was studying for a Politics degree at university. Spirituality was not a topic of concern for me. In fact, I would go as far as to say that I had completely lost touch with any spiritual side to myself that may have existed prior to that point. I was too busy trying to convince myself that I was enjoying the excesses of a student lifestyle. Happiness was not something I aspired to, because I wasn't convinced that I could realistically achieve it. Alongside the excess I was … [Read more...]
