Hello Friends😊

Many of you know I work with private clients doing integrative coaching and healing. I have some openings for new clients so please reach out if you or someone you know would benefit from ongoing support.

The work is integrative because it includes the personal dimensions of body, emotions, prana/chi, and mind, as well as the transpersonal and archetypal dimensions which are beyond the personal and yet a part of our expansive self. We have a large number of tools to work with based on my training as a coach and in the traditional life sciences of yoga and ta**ra, through my teacher Yogacharini Maitreyi. This is the original psycho-somatic science for moving through trauma and realizing our potential.

Nothing airy fairy. This is grounded in the practical realities of being human in the modern world.

I meet each client where they're at and apply tools based on a solid foundation of training, personal practice, and experience working with many individuals of all ages, mental-emotional stages, and backgrounds. My focus is on providing the just right balance of self-direction by the client while providing my own feedback and direction in their process of deepening self-awareness, healing, and self-actualization.

Open to anyone around the world. Sessions are done on the phone and on Zoom.I find these mediums to be surprisingly beneficial. The client is in their own safe, comfortable space and can take the time to reflect and integrate after each session without having to deal with traveling to and from. Also, the phone sessions remove the visual element which can allow many people to fee more able to be vulnerable and open.

To learn more you can visit my website or send me a private message. Link in bio...

Have a great weekend everyone 😀🙏🏻

Latest Episode of Banyen Books in Conversation Podcast: Stephen Mitchell on his newest book "The First Christmas... a good one for the holidays!

Want to watch or listen? Go to banyen.com/podcast

This book is a wonderful teaching story and a beautiful imagining of what the realities would have been for the characters of the Nativity story living in that time and place. Stephen skillfully weaves in wisdom from Judaism, Zen Buddhism and Hinduism and even gets into the contemplation of angelic beings. In this conversation, Stephen and I also discuss his relationship with his wife, spiritual teacher, Byron Katie.

It was great to have Dr. Shefali as a guest on the Banyen Books In Conversation Podcast. is a bestselling author & renowned psychologist and we discussed her latest book "A Radical Awakening: Turn Pain Into Power, Embrace Your Truth, Live Free." This book and conversation are worth checking out for women especially but as a man I got a lot out of her perspective. The work is based in solid psychology and timeless wisdom principles.

Had a great conversation with about his latest book "The Everyday Hero Manifesto." He was kind enough to set aside the time to speak to us from Rome and he delivered a lot of valuable insight and wisdom. Thank you for your time Mr. Sharma.

Happy Birthday to my beloved teacher, guru and elder sister Maitreyi Yogacharini. She is a friend to all, a guide for many and lives her life as an example of kindness, generousity and what it means to be on the path of evolution and liberation.

She has a grassroots foundation in India, called Arkaya Foundation. They work supporting youth and families in need in the slums of Chennai. For her birthday, I have put together a simple Gofundme page to raise $1,008 for the foundation. It is especially needed right now as many people are without income and very isolated during the COVID lockdowns.

If you're able, please make a donation of any size and share this around. $1,008 should be an easy target. And if we can generate even more... that would be awesome!

Maitreyi, my pranams to the guru spirit in you. Thank you for being a light to us all. Many birthday blessings and much love.

Here is the link to donate:

In February I had the honour of being In Conversation with Red Hawk for the Banyen Books podcast. Red Hawk is a wonderful poet, a man of the heart and also writes about and leads workshops on the practice of self observation and self remembering. What a fantastic conversation it was. This one is audio only as, according to Red Hawk, he is, "retired from the internet."

The latest podcast for Banyen Books & Sound . Thomas Hubl speaks with me about his wonderful new book, "Healing Collective Trauma: A Process for Integrating Our Intergenerational and Cultural Wounds." I highly recommend Mr. Hubl's work for any person looking to understand both the scientific outlook on trauma and the mystical or esoteric understanding of karma and how we can work with and shift it for the benefit of ourselves, our ancestors, our children and our societies.

Ready for the interview and mini-worshop for with on his new book and "Healing Collective Trauma." Sunday at 11 AM PST.

Register to join live here:
https://www.banyen.com/events/hubl-2020

Will paste in comments as well.

Some info...

How does collective trauma get created, passed through generations and retriggered? How is the exploration of collective trauma at the leading edge of healing? Why should we as a society start to bring more awareness to collective trauma? How do we increase the capacities of individuals and groups to heal the collective trauma of our time?

Join Thomas Hübl for this special event with Guided Meditations, Live Conversation and Q&A, on the themes of his new book, Healing Collective Trauma: A Process for Integrating Our Intergenerational Wounds (Sounds true, 2020).

A note that the guided meditations will only be available to live attendees.

"Thomas Hübl’s exploration of collective trauma strikes at a core issue confronting our modern civilization."

~ Gabor Maté

Thomas Hübl is an Austrian-born contemporary spiritual teacher and founder of the Academy of Inner Science who practices and teaches mysticism in a manner that is entirely in keeping with the times. His work integrates the essence of the great traditions of wisdom with scientific knowledge and his own personal experience. This work leads to the birth of new "we-cultures" enabling people to gain a deeper dimension of self-awareness and responsibility. This radical transcendence of the ego-centric world view opens the door to a depth of authentic expression, to service to the world, and to a focus on the absolute. thomashuebl.com.

Given the adventurous, storytelling spirit of this man, I don't doubt we'll cover much more than just the book!

My favourite track on the debut album by my good friends, Aria's Boon. Also my own recording debut on the final track, titled "Light Light." I put down some harmonium. Got to witness much of this process of creation with all of the ups and downs. Each piece is a unique work of art.

Excited for making music. Just got a drum set again after many years of not playing. Stay tuned 😉...
