We interrupt our normally scheduled programming (The Alcoholic Advantage) to bring you this special bulletin just in.
Actually, it’s something I just remembered.
Did I ever tell you about the time I had a knock down drag out fight with God? No? Oh well, do let me fill you in on this […]

I find that being a recovering alcoholic means that I always need to keep an eye on myself. Oh, not that I might sneak behind my back and have a snort or two of vodka. It’s more about the fact that I need to keep myself in balance at all times or I may start […]

While being an alcoholic was not on the list of things I wanted to be when I grew up, in the long run, it’s worked out for the best. These days, it’s not just about the drinking or drugging. Hitting the wall of addiction forced me to take a good long look at myself and […]
How to Break your Bad Habits

Dave Navarro of Rock your Day, wrote a post about how he declares war on his bad habits in an effort to overcome them. It got me thinking about how we all do things differently according to what we believe. And what works for one person may not necessarily work for another. And how it’s […]

No, this is not the name of a new recording group. (At least I don’t think so anyway.) It’s my response to a term that I believe comes from Buddhism, called “Monkey Mind.” This term means the mind that won’t settle down and allow one to meditate. It climbs from thought to thought.
I’m going one […]

Wouldn’t you like to know how to increase your sex appeal? Or at least increase your circle of friends? Wouldn’t we all! What is it that constitutes sex appeal anyway? How do you get the charisma, the chutzpah, the je ne sais quoi that others find so alluring?

It’s a beautiful day here in Vancouver and one where I just can’t seem to sit still. So, I went out with my camera for a good long walk.
I absolutely adore looking at different architecture and anything with red brick is my favorite. As it’s a rarity here in the wild west, we enjoy when […]

I used to love going into those new age stores that have frequented the streets since the ‘60’s. You know the ones: musical chimes softly playing in the background, the scent of incense wafting through the air, and books splayed out in a dizzying array of color and claims.

As I have made a commitment here in my little corner of the blogosphere to be as honest as possible, I am thereby forced to come clean with an embarrassing and bewildering shard of information.
Feeding the Pain Body
In his latest book, "A New Earth," author Eckhart Tolle talks about feeding the pain body. Tolle explains […]

From the category of “things that keep me up at night,” lately I have been pondering the proper etiquette and usage of a recent addition to the twitterslang lexicon, the word niebu.
As has been passed down the hallowed halls of the Twitterdom, James Chartrand from Men with Pens originally coined this word one bright Canadian […]
