  • The Limitations of Science

    The Limitations of Science

    Science cannot prove that something does not exist, only that something exists. People seem to forget that. Since our technology has progressed so incredibly to where it is today, we like to think we know it all. We have cars that can drive themselves. GPS, the internet, voice-activated everything. We’ve figured it out! We know…

  • The Nature of Time

    The Nature of Time

    She stretches and coils, bounces and boils. A torturous lover who craves our attention then makes us suffer for having given it. “You came here to experience me. Do not ignore me,” she says. We humans are obsessed with time. I bet there are at least four clocks in your immediate vicinity. There are five…

    Sungazing – A Complete Guide + Resources

    Disclaimer: I am neither a doctor nor a scientist and am not recommending partaking in the practice of sungazing. If you decide to do so, it is at your own discretion and you are solely responsible for any harm you may endure as a result. Growing up, we were all warned about the sun. You’ll burn…

  • Amazing Earth

    Amazing Earth

    Whenever I think about our amazing Earth and just life in general, which is often, my mind is blown so exhaustively that it feels like I’m on drugs. It all seems like a big joke, in a good way, or a game. I just want to go over a few things today and talk about…

  • 3 Quick Steps to Reduce Stress

    3 Quick Steps to Reduce Stress

    We think too much sometimes. Lying in bed awake, thoughts racing. Thoughts of the past and the future, stresses and worries. We tell ourselves to stop thinking so much and just go to sleep. It works for a second, but before we know it, our minds are racing again thinking of all the things there are to think about. When…

  • Fresh Air

    There has been some stress lately, so I decided I needed to get outside. This was last Friday. As much as I love hiking with other people, a lot of the time I prefer to go alone so I can fully appreciate the woods without being distracted by conversation. So I didn’t invite anyone other…

  • What’s Your Life Story?

    What’s Your Life Story?

    It’s easy to hate someone right off the bat. Certain people just rub us the wrong way. They annoy us and piss us off. Although I’ve been pretty polite for the most part for most of my life (with the exception of a few phases), I’ve always met people who just rub me the wrong…

  • The Man Who Tapped the Secrets of the Universe

    The Man Who Tapped the Secrets of the Universe

    The Man Who Tapped the Secrets of the Universe is a short biography (fewer than 60 pages) of a man I’d never heard of, Walter Russell. I’m not sure why his insights aren’t commonly taught in school. At least not in my schools. He was a world-class painter, sculptor, author, architect, figure skater, philosopher, and more. They…

  • Lotus Flower

    The lotus seed starts in the muck at the bottom of a pond. As it grows and reaches the surface, a beautiful lotus flower blossoms. Still rooted in the muck, it rises above it all up into the pure air and flourishes beautifully, above the denseness, the darkness, from which it came. Of course not…

  • How to Meditate

    How to Meditate

      The average person hears “meditation” and thinks of some Tibetan monk or some new age hippie type. The truth is, more people than you know meditate regularly, especially the successful ones. If you don’t meditate already, starting the practice will make your life better, guaranteed. Many of the most impressive people throughout history have placed…
