What it’s Like Having a Non-24-Hour Sleep Schedule

I’ve been going to bed and waking up later and later every day. Eventually I’ll be going to bed when the sun comes up and waking up when it’s dark out. This will continue until I’m eventually back in sync with the “normal” sleep/wake schedule for a week or two. Then it’s back to being nocturnal. It wasn’t always this...

Using Money Issues as a Gateway to Self Love and Enlightenment

I’m going to share my story and how I use my money issues as a gateway to self love and enlightenment. I talk about how growing up poor instilled limiting beliefs about money and was the foundation for a scarcity mindset. But I chose to feel into the fear, guilt, and shame around money and this is what I learned....

What My Self Love Practice Looks Like These Days

So what’s my morning routine like these days? How many hours am I meditating? How many books do I read? Truth is I can’t seem to maintain anything for very long because I respond differently as soon as I get a good habit going. I’ll go for a week or two with a solid morning routine, using an app like...

Maker/Mistaker Audiobook Released

In 2013 I started a blog called Maker/Mistaker to write about my self development journey. What started with me opening up about my depression led to a mind-blowing journey of self-development, spiritual awakenings, astral projection, and healing. I closed the blog in 2016 to work on other things and moved all my articles to my jefffinley.org site. But here’s the...

Catching up with Jeff: Astral Projection, Brent Simon, and Spiritual Awakenings

This is the full interview I did with The Thirteenth Hour Podcast in July 2017. Host Joshua Blum contacted me to see what I was up to these days and how our old friend Brent Simon is doing. It’s been 11 years since Brent was the star of a short film I posted to YouTube in 2006. It went viral...

My Journey Abroad – How I Found the Courage to Travel

I recently got back from a three month solo trip in Europe. It was my first time traveling abroad. There’s a lot I could say about it, but first I need to write about what led up to it, why I went, and how I found the courage to go. Last fall, I wrote about the feeling that things were...

It Feels Like Things are Coming to an End

This past month has been like a 180 from wherever I thought I was going. In my last post, I was talking about becoming a professional cuddler or sexual healer. Well, that’s not happening any time soon and I’m not really that interested anymore. It’s like the enthusiasm suddenly vanished over the past month and a half. I’ve found myself much...

Professional Cuddling & Sexual Healing

I’ve been doing quite a bit of research and experimenting with desire and the guilt that I often carry with it. Two people who have inspired me lately is Marcia B and Betty Martin. I have recently read Richard Unger‘s book Lifeprints, and determined how my fingerprints relate to my life lessons. (Read this post about my rare palms.) Sure enough, when...

Physical Attraction is So Weird

I’ve been so fascinated with physical attraction these days. You know, chemistry, sparks, crushes, and butterflies. That sorta thing. Why do I feel that with one woman I’d consider “cute” but not with one I’d consider “hot.” I could even feel tingly after just a single picture and never hearing her voice or meeting her in person to experience her...
