The Psychic Spiritual World: Pain and Pleasure


The Psychic Spiritual World: Pain and Pleasure

There is a balance between pain and pleasure. We need to be hopeful, choose happy and be positive. But what if you are sad, depressed….? The students that committed suicide at the colleges where I taught were always, the brightest stars known for being happy, helpful to others. People were always shocked when they chose suicide. America worships “happy” and “positive attitude.”

What is the aversion to the so-called negative? Why are we rejected for being a “downer”?

If a person is truly happy and content from the inside out, some one else’s upset mood, depression or anxiety will not affect you ! People react badly to “negativity” because it stirs up their own un resolved issues. It makes them feel (again) their unresolved issues.

The great sadness for me is 1) sad people have no where to go and share—except a 12 step meeting or a therapist’s office 2) so many people are layering a false positive over a stinking swamp of fear, depression, anxiety and other “unacceptable” feelings.

Spiritual work, meditation, Readings, help us to burn through the dark gunk that we hide from others and often from ourselves. When we are authentically balanced, then we can enjoy all the weather we experience as a human. A bad day can be just like rainy weather. A bad time can be like winter storms. It doesn’t have to be “negative”—- make hot chocolate and cozy down.

When we are clear, we don’t have to insist on “happy”. We find happy everywhere, in every experience. And we welcome the variety life has to offer, all the ups and downs, all kinds of weather. If we are balanced, sad people, or happy people having a sad time don’t have to hide, or fear rejection. And that is a happy situation for all. !

Trauma Bonding in Friendships

Trauma bonding in friendships Signs of Trauma Bonding When you continue to be fixated on people who hurt you and who are no longer in your life. When you crave contact with someone who has hurt you and who you know will cause you more pain. When you continue to revolve around people who you know are taking advantage of you or exploiting you. When you are committed to remaining loyal to someone who has betrayed you, even though their actions indicate few signs of change. When you are desperate to be understood, validated, or needed by those who have indicated they do not care about you. When you go to great lengths to continue to help, care-take, or consider people who have been destructive to you. There is a constant pattern of nonperformance. Your friend or partner continues to make promises only to break them consistently. There might be a boatload of apologies however there is no change in their act

Wong Loh (Huang-Lao): The Teacher

Image
Dr. Marie is an Initiated Student who has been with Wong Loh Sin See since 1986 . While she has studied many other modalities (shamanism, pagan, remote healing systems, nature spirits, crystals, life between lives regressions, animal communication, psychic talents, oracle cards and more) she considers Wong Loh her primary Teacher and with great respect and gratitude incorporates his philosophies and methods of meditation into all of her teachings and work with Students as well as Healings. You will see in these writings this "warning": No one else can claim to be assisting the Teacher as his representative. The Teacher himself is the only one who can make this acknowledgement. Both Wong Loh and Leong Tan have publicly acknowledged (in workshops and retreats) Dr. Marie's teachings and students in her area were instructed to continue their development by studying with her if they desired to eventually initiate with Wong Loh . The material presented here is the o

The Wounded Vulnerable Narcissist

Image
The Wounded Vulnerable Narcissist Many people are very self-critical and most, while acknowledging   they might indeed feel this way “sometimes”,   seem to be reluctant to do any work on these feelings or behaviors, other than “being positive” about themselves. And usually this means that “being positive” is the generic feel good kind of “thing” rather than being specific and realistic. Generic feel good statements (given either through self –talk or as complements from friends and new age teachers) are really not useful other than a quick hit of feel good emotions and perhaps as a distraction from some current uncomfortable emotions or challenges. For some reason, people seem to feel that if they actually go into their feelings, rather than continuing to bury them and attempting to live on top of what will become a self-perpetuating swamp land, that they are now being “negative” or perhaps will in fact “manifest” negativity (all the new age nonsense jargon).   People speaking in
