You are the soul that owns the house you live in. This is a mighty useful metaphor for understanding the concept of our Soul… body temple… energy… spirit… what we attract… nervous systems… hard wiring… All those terms that are jangled around in our wellness space. I have a beautiful breakdown for us that can help keep our human-holiness in perspective. It starts like this, “The house is the analogy of your body. You are the Soul that owns the house…” How do your emotions relate to your Soul? Wha...

My last book was The Desire Map . Back then, my life was guided by the question, “How do I want to feel?” I built my career on that. But I began to notice that even if I wasn’t experiencing my core desired feelings, I was still in touch with a greater purpose. Temporary unhappiness didn’t hold me back from helping a friend or feeling close to The Divine. A new question emerged. “ What do I want to embody? ” The answer was clear: Love. Love no matter what. And it turns out that the path to being ...

There’s tolerance. And it’s obviously better than intolerance . But there’s often some kind of settling beneath it. And then we move up the spiral to Acceptance . A definite improvement but… Let’s really expand to the highest destination if possible: HONOUR. We honor our contrasts and our mutual freewill. It’s a huge stretch when we’re frustrated with other people’s choices. We don’t have to condone, but we can respect the most basic commonality that we all have: CHOICE . Tune in for a mind stre...

I’m breaking tradition on my one woman podcast to introduce you to someone who I think is an earth angel: Randy Watson, founder of Ally Global Foundation .

A request: PLEASE LISTEN . Learn with me. I’ve been paying attention to this global issue since my days of running a think tank in Washington, DC., when...

Astral body, mental body, auric field… nervous system… sound system… What’s it all mean, really? I have a very simple breakdown for these things of monumental importance to our wellbeing. All things I wish I knew more about when I was twenty, eating New Age books for breakfast and generally avoiding Mother Nature. In this short episode we’re going into:Explanations of astral body, mental body, emotional body, and… What hangs out in your auric field anyway? PLUS! The 101 on our nervous system and...

There are times to go to the mat for what you believe in. And… in my experience… MOST of the time… disengaging from duking it out is a very very good idea. Maybe even the BEST idea. For your nervous system, for world peace. And it’s the hardest move. Because the fear-mind really loves to prove who’s right or wrong and it loves to win in court—whether that court is an online chat about who should be canceled, or an argument about who left the toilet seat up. This podcast began with a call from a ...

There’s so much that we want good n’ GONE. But here’s the thing: nothing is leaving your life or your thought patterns until you give it the light of your consciousness —your love. You’re not condoning more pain or poor behavior, but you’re moving into a greater presence with it. And so the grip starts to relax, and both you AND the dynamic (or person or circumstance) can truly peace out. Everything that you create— relationship dynamics , fear and obsessions, body pain—wants to get your attenti...

Why do we do meditations on the Full Moon ? What’s the “dark of the moon?” Does… it have anything to do with Pink Floyd? Is the moon “feminine” energy and the sun “masculine” energy? And why should we pay attention to this at all? This is my pragmatic-as-possible perspective on the super woo and super misperceptions about our relationship to the sun + moon—and why we should be very mindful about those connections. I’m also talking about Heart Centered Altars and creating those sacred spaces in o...

In the personal development realm, discussion around Forgiveness tends to focus on us Forgiving the other person for what they apparently did. But what about asking for Forgiveness? And, if I may, I want to take that a step further and talk about asking for Forgiveness from the person you think owes YOU an apology. In this episode of With Love, Danielle (#42), I’m going to tell you a personal story about digging deep for accountability––and the euphoria of fessing up. I hope this sparks heaps of...

The activities that we do most habitually create the deepest grooves in the mind. All that repetition gets us hooked on the behaviour––that could be a good thing, could be a bad thing. It depends on what the behaviour is. Then there are the times in our lives when we bust out of habits and we do something new. What I’m interested in talking about is the motivation beneath the “new things” we try. Because sometimes it’s the ego pushing us to prove ourselves. And sometimes, it’s our Soul moving us...

It’s fairly easy to conceive of a collective consciousness that is loving. Essentially, people who are compassionate, kind, uplifting to the world. They’re everywhere. When we think of this light, we tend to see it as a collective phenomenon. Now let’s consider the “shadow” of humanity. When we as individuals are not feeling “uplifting” or particularly high vibration––when we’re in our own despair, we tend to see ourselves as burdensome or not very useful to the collective. But this isn’t true. ...

Harmlessness as a virtue –– as an embodied energy, may be one of our most demanding calls as a species. It’s a commitment to the Universal Truth that can be hard to uphold. It’s tempting to wish harm on the harmful. The shadow self defines justice by metrics of punishment. But Harmlessness… harmlessness is the way our Divine Nature pursues justice. We speak Truth –– without superiority hooks, or malice. We hang above the drama and duality. We offer the course of Right Action. We stay mindful tha...

When we pray for the strength to protect others, I believe that we magnetize more Light into our lives, that inclusive prayer has extra sway in the universe. Because it’s universal law–to give is to receive. A very powerful prayer for these times is the Shantideva Prayer. It helps impress on our psyches that WE ARE TOGETHER in everything, in all life's experiences. From that heart center, our perceived “sides” and polarities start to dissolve and crumble (may they dissolve and crumble with Godsp...

What if we didn’t expend so much energy being in "protection mode"? What would that free up? Protection is often necessary. But there’s another posture that can be more energizing. What if we held the belief that love is our greatest protection? In this micro podcast I explore the shift that moves us from protection mode to being the change. Hosted on Acast.

Empathy is the antidote to misery. We have to learn to empathize like our lives depend on it. Deep work because empathy can get buried under trauma and separation dogma.
