Consciousness & Spirituality

crisis and opportunity..

September 9, 2010 by Carol 1 Comment

A young friend of mine recently got involved with a young woman who lied to him about being over 18, and her father had him arrested for Statutory Rape. And in one moment, he was abruptly shifted from living his life, filled with hope and possibility and a future, to living in a frozen space of fear and uncertainty. Fear is like that – it can sneak up in an instant, flooding your veins with icy panic, and filling your energy field with a dark fog.

The fear is palpable around him now, and I watch him desperately trying to see his life as he knew it, through the fog that surrounds him. Pat, “spiritual” answers like “trust the Universe” and “change your vibration” are less than meaningless to him. In the midst of my fear and concern for him, can I hold that space of trust? Can I hold my vision of his future, hold the vibration of safety for him?

Enlightenment and flossing…

July 4, 2010 by Carol 1 Comment

A friend just sent me this zen proverb “After enlightenment, the laundry.” And I thought, “and after every cool, cosmic, transformative experience, you still have to floss…”

We search for the peak experience, for the magic bullet, the Answer, the Way… Even if it existed, there’s still the regular Stuff of life; laundry, flossing, and no matter how many times you cut your toenails, you still have to do it again!

If only we could be content with the Yin and Yang of life, the excitement and the mundane, the epiphany and the falling back into our old unconscious habits, inhaling and exhaling, transformation and cleaning up dog poop. Our eternal search for transcendence makes us glorious – our stubborn denial of the mundane stuff of life makes us like ostriches.

What’s your favorite contradiction? And is it really contradiction, or is there really Yin and Yang, in-breath and out-breath, light and dark for a reason…

Breathe in Peace…

June 20, 2010 by Carol Leave a Comment

I offered my guided imagery meditation “Breathe in Peace” as a free download on the Self-Help Giveaway that Dr. Joe Rubino is running, and got some interesting feedback on it.

In the meditation I say, “…This is your time, now, to take care of yourself, to be gentle with yourself, to give yourself patience and compassion, to give yourself the peace and safety that lies deep within your heart…”

One woman wrote to me, that she found herself in tears listening to that – trying to remember that last time that she put aside all her responsibilities and taking care of everyone around her and took time to be gentle and patient and compassionate with herself.

what is guided meditation?

May 8, 2010 by Carol Leave a Comment

Guided meditation is a process by which a guide or teacher leads you into meditation. An effective teacher can teach you a simple pathway to a meditative state, as well as help you experience being in that state. Once you have experienced what it feels like to be in the natural state of meditation, and learned the path to it, it is easy for you to take yourself there.Meditation shouldn’t be hard, it’s a natural state for humans. But a lot of people become frustrated and discouraged trying to learn meditation on their own. It may be because they are using techniques that just aren’t right for them, and/or have inadequate guidance. Being guided into the experience of a meditative state, with a guided meditation CD or mp3 is an easy way to eliminate those problems.

Meditation is, most simply, the process of re-connecting our mind, emotions, and body with our spirit. The basic purpose of meditation is to bring us back to our center, where we are in communication with our higher/deeper/inner self, and with spirit. There are many ways to meditate, and cultures all over the world have used meditation in many different forms- sitting, walking, movement. There is no single right way to meditate; we each need to find the form that works best for us.

Marci Shimoff on Happiness

September 13, 2009 by Carol Leave a Comment

Marci Shimoff is the opening speaker this Tuesday when the fall 2009 series of “Profound Paths to Health, Healing and Happiness” teleseminar series begins. Her book “Happy for No Reason” is a beautifully crafted piece of work; insightful, empowering and full of simple tools to shift your perspective on life and happiness. Marci and I spoke about our mutual philosophy that there is no one right way, no one perfect path to happiness, health or anything else! We share a belief in the uniqueness of each person, and the importance of finding the path that is right for you.

We bring all these different teachers and practitioners together in this series in the hopes that each of you will find someone or something that resonates, that gives you that “yes, I can do that, that feels right to me” feeling. In her book, she offers a multitude of tools and ideas with the same intent. I hope you enjoy our conversation, and find at least one thing that says “YES!” in your heart. Check back here for more thoughts, and feel free to share your feedback and ideas as well.

Yours in Happiness, Carol

Living in Your Body

July 19, 2009 by Carol

a holistic healer’s unique perspective

on life, healing and inner peace…

~ Carol Robin’s blog

I named my blog “Living In Your Body” because we are here, on Earth, in these amazing and frustrating physical forms with no owner’s manual, no training wheels and no reset button. My intent is to share with you my experience, knowledge, intuition and the wisdom of both ancient and modern teachings to be of service to you on your journey.

I believe our most important job right now, is to learn how to live in our bodies. To learn how to live a balanced life on a wobbly planet with inflammation and viruses and climate change, and still remember how to laugh and love and have inner peace, and remember that we are not alone… ~ Carol

Welcome to My Blog!

July 16, 2009 by Carol Leave a Comment

Welcome to my new blog. I envision this blog as a way to go into more depth about a variety of topics in health and healing. My passion is drawing on all the diverse philosophies and tools I have studied to help people find their own unique path to health and healing. My favorite tools are energy medicine, guided imagery meditation, EFT and meridian tapping, gentle bodywork and nutritional counseling. In this blog, and in all my work I explore all levels of our being – body, heart, mind and spirit. How these interconnect, how we explore our full humanity is a source of great fascination to me.

My free weekly teleseminar, “Profound Paths to Health, Healing and Happiness” is returning Sept. 15th, 2009 for our 3rd season. In it, I have in-depth conversations with some of the most innovative and visionary teachers and practitioners in health and healing. People who’s work incorporates an understanding of, and an orientation to body, heart, mind and spirit. I am really excited about our line-up of speakers and will be sharing more about them. I’d love to hear about your interests; who and what you’d like to learn about, and get your feedback on previous speakers and topics.

Please feel free to come back whenever you like, or leave me a comment.

Yours in Peace,

Carol
