Understanding Narcissism & Narcissistic Parenting

Narcissism or Narcissistic Personality Disorder

Today I would like to expand on the subject of Narcissism; a subject often misunderstood. Franco Volpi; a philosopher and historian; wrote “Tell me who you see when you look at yourself on the mirror, and I will tell you what philosophy of life you live by”. We all know the myth of Narcissus; a…… Continue reading Understanding Narcissism & Narcissistic Parenting

Reflections: Desire

The word alone makes my knees weak, my mouth salivate and my spirit soar….Oh, but you probably think I am only talking about sex, it seems that is the first thing that comes forth when someone says “desire”. The dictionary defines it as “longing to satiate”, “a strong feeling of wanting to have something”–well then,…… Continue reading Reflections: Desire

Understanding Muladhara

Today, I invite you to explore a passage from my manuscript, “Tantric Sexuality,” as we delve into the profound significance of the Muladhara chakra, the first of the energy centers.

Reflection #11 :Compassion Over Self Righteousness

How many of your thoughts about other people, situations or things are due to…… Continue reading Assumptions Lead To Wrong Conclusions

Benefits of Tantric Counseling

Traditional therapy can be an intimidating thing; it should come as not surprise then how much more “terrifying” the idea of Tantric counselling can be; whether by one self or as a couple. Tantric counselling is similar to what is commonly known as Sex Therapy; which focuses on physical and mental dysfunctions; however, Tantric counselling…… Continue reading Benefits of Tantric Counseling

Reflection #10: If Worlds Could Collide

Today was an emotionally charged day for me. I felt as if I had to confront two completely different realities, yet my mind kept wondering “if only they could understand one another”….perhaps that is what I am trying to accomplish by writing this. My morning started early, with my assisting Barry while he photographed a…… Continue reading Reflection #10: If Worlds Could Collide

Understanding The Shadow

Today I would like to talk about the shadow, what it entails and why soul therapy or shadow work are so important. Perhaps the best and simplest way to generically explain the shadow, is by taking a closer look at the story of “Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde”. Dr. Jekyll was a brilliant man who…… Continue reading Understanding The Shadow
