Many psychotherapists suggest writing healing poems. In my latest Psychology Today article, I share a few tips on how to get started.
I believe that the world can do without religion, but cannot do without spirituality — whether it takes the form of writing, mindfulness, compassion, or smiling throughout the day. Read more of my blogpost at Boomer Cafe.
In general, writing can help us make sense of the events in our lives, and in my latest BrainSpeak blogpost, I discuss how confessional writing can provide a respite from hiding behind a veil of secrets.
Is it Psychosis or a Spiritual Emergency? I explore the experience of a spiritual emergency and how, if managed and treated under supervision, it can be life changing and offer the individual a deeper sense of passion, wisdom, love, and zest for life. Read here on Psychology Today.
Becoming empowered means facing your deepest thoughts and feelings and understanding that at times they may feel uncomfortable, but they could eventually become your guide and your path to happiness. In my latest Psychology Today article, Finding Your Power Through Writing, I discuss how writing can help you on that journey.
This is the time of year when I reflect a lot about my father and his influence on my life. I also think about all those who were not as lucky as I was to have had such an amazing role model. In my latest Psychology Today article, I discuss articles and statistics that have saddened me regarding the crisis of fatherhood and I suggest ways to honor lost fathers.
In the writing workshops I teach, I advocate that writing can save your life. Using my own life as a compass, I suggest that when navigating difficult waters, we all need something to turn to—whatever tempers our stress levels. For some people, it might be exercise; for others it might be talk therapy. But for writers like myself, it’s about cracking open the journal or turning on my computer to create a story. Checkout my latest Psychology Today article to learn how to use writing to transform yourself.
A recent birthday celebration reminded me of the importances of goddesses in our lives. We are different goddesses depending upon where we are in the life cycle. Athena, for example, puts career first, Hera puts marriage first, Artemis is the goddess of the hunt and saves other women and Aphrodite is the sensual lover. The wise woman arrives later in life. In my latest Psychology Today article , I discuss goddesses, their origins, and their roles.
Maintaining healthy physical and emotional health is vitally important in all aspects of life, especially when it comes to breast cancer. In my latest Huffington Post article, I share my personal journey with breast cancer and I share some positive steps to avoid it.
In my latest Psychology Today article, Communication From Boardroom to Bedroom, learn how about why communication between the sheets is as important as it is in professional settings.
Being self-aware leads to a deeper knowing, and ultimately, to self-realization which in turn results in a sense of wholeness and quite possibly, is the key to happiness. Checkout my BrainSpeak blogpost to learn Six Essential Self-Awareness Strategies.
Spiritual seekers have the ability to change themselves and the world around them. Learn about how following the path of self-discovery can transform your life in my latest Psychology Today article, Spiritual Seekers: The Backstory.
Ever wonder why psychologists have favorite poets and poets have favorite psychologists? Checkout my latest Psychology Today article, Love Affair Between Psychology and Poetry, and learn why!
Checkout my lasted Psychology Today article called Empowered By Love: Empowering Women, Empowering Humanity.
Checkout my latest article on Boomer Cafe called The Importance of Intimacy If Boomer's Want to Stay Young.
