Universal consciousness is the idea that there is a single awareness or “mind” underlying all life. This increasingly popular concept suggests that everything in our world is connected, rather than the customary belief that each individual person possesses a separate, autonomous mind. Have you ever experienced times of feeling this connection to everyone and everything? Embracing the idea could change our world! Please join us at Spotify, Apple, and picturesoutthere.com !

What about the Pledge of Allegiance? What about “and to the republic for which it stands…”? What about ”and liberty and justice for all”? We agree with Trump that the name “Republicans” isn’t accurate any more for his “going forward from this point” followers. But we want to suggest a more accurate and useful name for his going-forward party instead of his suggestion of “Trumplicans”, or the inaccurate MAGA slogan. Join us as we very logically and unemotionally share that accurate new name for his going-forward party of followers, and what we can logically expect in the future from Trump and the 1% of the American people that he actually cares about.

There are two sides to the “Empathy Coin”…the more-familiar “giving side”, but also a life-changing “receiving side”. The more empathy we give to others, the more real joy we receive that comes into our hearts and into our lives. Pretty amazing!

Let’s Replace Shouting Our Opinions with Having Meaningful Conversations.

“That’s not true!” “You’re wrong!”“Fake news!”

These phrases are heard too often in today’s conversations, particularly political ones. What if we, instead, tackled today’s tough challenges by setting aside the shouting, the interrupting, and the belittling, and began to really engage in meaningful conversations?
