Choosing Love
Lessons from a Yellow Lab
Yes, I named my dog Yoda. It’s not really that I’m a Star Wars fan (which I am) or that I collect Yoda figurines (which I used to), but the symbol of this wise, mentor archetype has always struck a deep chord within. I know I’m not alone in my affinity and fascination with this age-old character since Yoda figurines tend to sell out of toy stores within hours of their release.
Yet despite the profound wisdom of the 900-year-old Jedi Master’s sage-like teachings, it appears I’ve been taught greater lessons from my yellow Labrador retriever.

Six Ways to Unlock Creative Energy
Transcending Writer's Block
It’s late, you’re tired, and you’d rather nap than pound away at the keyboard. Your creative juices aren’t flowing, but your deadline is Friday, and if you don’t get your manuscript to your editor, there will be hell to pay, or at least, there will be a potential breach of contract.
You need a solution—and you need it fast.

The Way of Formlessness
Embracing Bruce Lee's Life Philosophy
By age nineteen, Bruce Lee had developed his own unique fighting style embodying elements of multiple forms of martial arts, boxing, and weaponry. Like an endless, roaring river hurdling over a rigid rock face, Lee’s Jeet Kune Do philosophy was free flowing in nature. As Lee described: Water poured into a glass becomes the glass. Water poured into a pitcher becomes the pitcher. Be formless like water.

A Quantum Explanation of the Physiologic Response
Until very recently, little work existed to explain how and why the physiologic response works on the universal level Hawkins has discovered. (An explanation of how the physiologic response works from an energy/life force perspective has been discussed in various texts, linking the acupuncture meridians to the muscle’s reaction.) The following explanation is derived mainly from Stanford physicist Henry Stapp’s quantum approach to consciousness as Dr. Hawkins’ has described in the June 2003 lecture in Sedona, Arizona as well as in Appendix D in his book I: Reality and Subjectivity.
