Lately, I have been listening to a podcast featuring interviews with people who have had near-death experiences (NDEs). There is something deeply soothing and healing in hearing first-hand accounts from people who have glimpsed what lies beyond the “veil.” These stories help one remember who we are beyond the limitations of form, as well as […]

At last, I came across something truly valuable regarding the problem of procrastination—a problem that each of us knows to one degree or another. It can range from mild stress and anxiety to genuine agony at the thought that time is passing while, for some reason, we are not doing what we want or need […]

Fritz Riemann, “Basic Forms of Fear”
I haven’t recommended a book in a while, but a recent conversation with a client gave me the perfect reason to do so. The book is Basic Forms of Fear by Fritz Riemann. While many may have already read it, it was first published in 1961, I still want to highlight it because it remains […]
Here is another article by the creator of the Russian website “Self-Knowledge – the path of enlightenment“.* Fear is a basic emotion that everyone experiences to one degree or another. However, when it takes center stage in a person’s emotional life and begins to dominate it, it means the time has come for a spiritual […]

Panic Attacks from a Spiritual Perspective
What would you think if you suddenly felt so unwell that it seemed you might faint at any moment? Your heart is pounding; you feel tingling and numbness throughout your body; your breathing changes; you experience muscle spasms everywhere—especially in your arms, legs, face, and mouth; your throat and chest tighten; you feel dizzy; your […]

How to Overcome the Fear of Making Mistakes
“The greatest mistake you can make in life is to be constantly afraid of making a mistake.” Most of us are familiar with the blocking role of the fear of making mistakes. While for some people this fear poses only a minor challenge, for others it can become paralyzing. So-called perfectionists may end up wasting […]

Unhealthy Procrastination
There is a type of people who tend to postpone things.And they do not understand why, later on, things in their lives become worse and worse. Like an installment on a loan that is not paid on time, and the interest begins to accumulate…Like an overripe pear that remains untouched in the fruit bowl and […]
After presenting the first block to “surrender as a way of life” from Pamela Kribbe’s book—”God as an external authority“—it is now time to present the second. It is titled “Society’s ideals and standards as the second false idol.” “Another false god that distances you from your true spiritual energy is ‘society’: the standards and […]

How to Become More Honest with our Feelings
This is a continuation of the previous article on Intelligent Emotions. In it, I briefly outline the core ideas from David Viscott’s book The Language of Feelings about the crucial importance of being in contact with our emotions and being able to express them in an appropriate way. According to Viscott, if you want to […]
According to the founder of humanistic psychology, A. Maslow, within us lies what he calls the ‘Jonah complex’ – a fear of our own greatness. “We fear our highest possibilities (as well as our lowest). We usually shy away from becoming what we can glimpse in our most perfect moments, in the most perfect conditions, […]

What to do when fear comes
This is a question addressed to Osho. And here is how he responds: “Why should you ask to do anything? When there is fear, be afraid! Why create a duality? When moments of fear come be fearful, tremble with fear, allow fear to take possession. Why this constant inquiry: What to do? Can’t you allow […]
