“I do not believe in miracles, I rely on them.”— Yogi Bhajan So you might wonder why I’m always sharing miracle stories here on the blog. Those stories that tend to begin with some version of “You are never going to believe this.” I feel it’s my duty to point them out (and throw massive […]

“Facts, my dear Sancho, are the enemy of truth.”—Miquel de Cervantes The brain, as cool as it is, mainly serves as a reducing valve.

“Being born’s a hell of a lottery”-David Mitchell Every year, at least $800 million in lottery prizes never get claimed.

“The quality of your consciousness at this moment is what shapes the future.”–Eckhart Tolle One of the key reasons I accept all invitations to present workshops (what I call play shops) is because I meet the most amazing people.
