The Way of the Witch
2026’s Journey brought me back into waters I immersed myself in a few years ago and now I’m integrating the last few years of my experience into teachings from yesteryear. Generating Inner Calmness…Retracting Energy from Yesteryear…Overriding my body’s urges to fixate on emotions I regularly regurgitated…Magnetizing my Heart. The Way of the Witch. It hit me this morning while on the treadmill! All of these practices regarding Controlling how you Feel…Choosing your Thoug

Gratitude List | New Morning Routine Addition
Higher Mind, The Muse, inspired me to create a new addition to my morning routine....A Gratitude List! This is just another expression of my 2026's REVOLUTION word-of-the-year. To Withdraw my Energy and my Reactions (as best as I can) to the External World's Theatre involving people, places, things. To Generate an Inner State of Calmness! I am inspired to copy and paste my most recent newsletter to this entry which describes my new Gratitude List practice and how it enhances

Self-Generated Calmness
My 2026 journey, paired with my word-of-the-year of REVOLUTION, brought me to old teachings that sparked the fire of passion back in the early days of my practice…and now I’m overlaying my last 6 years of experience and wisdom onto the teachings from yesteryear. To Be Centered. To Tune into Higher Mind. To Match My Heart. I am realizing that all Esoteric-like Teachings are about The Inner World. To Generate Calmness and Peace within the Body/Mind. To Observe Thoughts and

“Why did this happen to me?”
“Why did this happen to me?” A question given to readers to divine the reasons as to why XYZ event/experience happened to a client. Well…I say that XYZ happened and there is no use trying to waste energy and time trying to divine the exact reason why whatever happened. Seriously. What’s the point? This event/experience happened and we can only react and respond to What Is Now. I find that most people are unable to not spend all of their precious minutes, hours, days, weeks,

Be The Generator & Clear Psychic Debris
2026 sharpened my perceptions to help me view myself as a Generator along with directives to clear Psychic Debris from my life. My morning exercise today was poignant, crisp, clear, concise, and all that which describe “on point”. Today’s reflections followed this week’s newsletter about how humans are Tuning Forks. To Be The Generator. We can only Control our Choices, Actions, Intentions, Reactions, and Responses to Life, to Others, and to Inspiration. To align our W

Intelligence & Mystical Scientist
Exploring “Spiritual” Expressions of our realm of experience within the confines of these Time/Space & Mind/Body/Spirit Constructs require our Whole-Minded Intelligence (Healthy Logic Mind & Psychic Art Mind) and our Humility. Diving into the Layers of Reality, our PSI Skills, and Metaphysical Principles are for the Mystical Scientist rather than the Fool who believes that regurgitating memorized facts and formulas dictates supreme intelligence. One must be Willing to not

Morning Practice: Neutrality, Resist Extremes, & Social Media Exposure Disaster
It is Essential to cultivate a Morning Practice that emphasizes the State of Neutrality in order to alleviate yourself from the energy of yesteryear, move yourself into a clear landscape, and to elevate your conscious mind to the Whispers from Higher Mind. Its been well over a year since my latest quitting of social media (many back and forth quitting over the years) and I finally cut the chord to Reddit along with severely limiting my time spent on YouTube. The idea of wak

Others’ Opinions & Perceptions
Monday morning, the 12 th of January 2026, and my belly is full of oatmeal, my morning smoothie, and the red raspberry tea I’m sipping on as I write this entry. My morning exercise put my body on autopilot and I swam in the Day-Dream. I felt an immersion of ideas and perceptions that reconciled in a simple knowing and direction for me and my journey in 2026. I realized how Others’ Opinions Ruin Life. Think about your favorite song. You love it. You vibe with it. You’re

Hello, 2026! Word of the Year: Revolution
Another year, another entry detailing the hopes, wishes, and desires for the course of the next twelve months. I'm brewing my afternoon cup of coffee as I'm nourishing a happy belly full of some delicious avocado + tomato toast! The creamy texture and juicy bites help me to combat my body's desire to suck on a metal nipple aka nicotine vape. Its been 4 Days 16 Hours 18 Minutes and 9 Seconds since I quite nicotine/vaping/smoking. I guess I got ahead of any New Years' Resolutio

December 4th’s Long Island Medium Theatre Event. A Night of Spirit!
December 5 th , 20 days until Christmas 2025, and I’m bundled up at my desk ready to write a new blog entry as I battle the winds-of-upcoming-winter! I haven’t sat down to write a new blog entry in a while. The Muse hasn’t Inspired me to write anything other than my weekly newsletter…but Inspiration’s lightning bolt struck! Last night, I went to see the Theresa Caputo show in Huntington, NY. My love, my dad’s fiancé, and myself all traveled an hour west to a village where

The Great Uniter
In a world where everything is supercharged with emotion, beliefs, and reaction-olympics...a world that is incredibly polarized...neighbors, friends, and family members pinned against one another...there is something that unites us all. Death is The Great Uniter. What a great statement and I wish that I could recall the person who originally coined that phrase. What unites us all? What do we all face eventually in this journey of Life? What is an aspect of our experience we a

Physical Action & Assessment for Solutions
Tuesday morning, ten days before Halloween 2025, and I'm sippin' on some lemon water after returning home from the gym. My morning exercise is crucial for my overall wellbeing! My body shifts into autopilot while my mind enters the Day-Dream State. It is almost like I push a button to engage in auto-mode where my legs keep moving and my mind swims in an ocean. I was inspired to write about the necessity to not neglect the Physical Body while pursuing a 'spiritual state' of ex
