Resistance Causes Persistence

What you resist persists

It is a simple and basic truth that in the process of self-improvement, personal-transformation, achieving goals, or for that matter, in life in general, the more we struggle against the various obstacles in our way, the stronger they become and the more difficult to overcome. This is true regardless of whether the obstacles are inner, […]

This has included my feelings for both the often gaudy and extravagant decorations, as well as the expectations of giving people gifts, often […]

Mindfulness simply means the practice of paying attention to the experience of the present moment. Being mindful can simply entail stepping back mentally and noticing the specific elements of your present moment experience, paying attention to […]

The Spiritual Child

This afternoon I caught the last part of a really fascinating interview on NPR with Lisa Miller, director of Columbia University’s Clinical Psychology Program and author of the newly released book, The Spiritual Child: The New Science on Parenting for Health and Lifelong Thriving.  Among other things, her in-depth research indicates that children who have […]
