Firm Love Talking
You too deserve to be happy. Don’t make your heart wrong, don’t make your mind wrong, let them work together for your happiness. Look at all the patterns that keep you unhappy and resolve to give them up, one by one. ✩ A major obstacle to happiness is the expectation that people be different thanContinue reading “Firm Love Talking”
The One Who Inflicts the Wound Is Not the One Who Will Put You Together Again
Q: Should I tell the narcissist that the way he/she handled … ( … ) … devastated me? A: It doesn’t matter. At best he will be flattered that he caused a stir, had an effect, “another one stunned, by me”. But do not expect him to be moved. A narcissist is only moved byContinue reading “The One Who Inflicts the Wound Is Not the One Who Will Put You Together Again”
How to Beat a Narcissist
You can’t. Don’t even try. Though I have a tip that worked like medicine. I told the narcissist to take the fight out of his relationships and bring the energy into a cause. To be a warrior for a cause and not fire wars within his intimate bonds. Oh, he was so upset. The relationshipContinue reading “How to Beat a Narcissist”
Mutuality in Love
A huge disappointment is not the end of the story. Sometimes it catalyzes a profound level of appreciation for your life, for what you have done and for what you have given. Perhaps the event and the negativity that played out was not karma at all. But a way to bring your attention to yourselfContinue reading “Mutuality in Love”
Reclamation of the Mind
Most people don’t have to live with the consequences of their advice and if put to a test, they wouldn’t want to. Be very discerning about whose ideas you follow. Wisdom is not in words. It is even hard to put into words; often enough it sounds stupid, awkward, uncool or “repressed”. However, it respondsContinue reading “Reclamation of the Mind”
Contrast (Your Backwind)
Sometimes the opposite of what you ask for comes into your life not to punish you or spite you or deprive you, but to amplify your desire for it, to wake you up to how real your need for it is. If you are too laid-back and talk yourself into the idea that you’ve gotContinue reading “Contrast (Your Backwind)”
Contrast? Nah. Attunement!
By pointing out ugly deeds or who the ugly people are, you haven’t created a beautiful world and you haven’t made yourself a beautiful person. Contrast has its place and time, but it is an effect — shocking, sharp and short-lived — not a lifestyle. Your creative energy seeks its own contentment. It has aContinue reading “Contrast? Nah. Attunement!”
Before Bed Time
Everything thrives around you, dear,your child,your plants,your clients,your friendships,your new neighbours,their pets who seek your company,your shared garden coop,the trees around your home,all because of your caring,all because they respond to your soul song,why do your worryso much about two topics?

Because I Can
Spirit to Artists: “You make beauty for others not only for personal reward or to raise your self-worth or to raise the joy in the community you are in — although that happens — but to be yourself — that in itself is freedom — and because you can. It is a gift from Creator.Continue reading “Because I Can”
Knowing It and Knowing About It: the Nonverbal and the Verbal
The less mysterious it is, the easier you can talk about it. But life without mystery is an illusion, merely a head trip. And love without mystery, are you kidding me, can that even be called love? And so what is most precious to us can not be (fully) put in words. Even the bestContinue reading “Knowing It and Knowing About It: the Nonverbal and the Verbal”
Mind on Earth, Heart in the Sky
Mind, look to the earth.Heart, look to the sky. Mind on earth, keep me rooted, strong, and humble.Heart in the sky, stretch me into what is possible, into heaven. © Nanda Jurela 28 March 2013
What You Keep Determines Your Life
A great rule of thumb to live by: It’s not about what you attract, it’s about what you keep. What you attract is random, changes from one day to another, even from one hour to another, there is no cohesion to it. You won’t find much meaning in events that have little to do withContinue reading “What You Keep Determines Your Life”
Zero Waste Gifting
A great summer party gift for the host that keeps giving: a stainless steel water bottle. Perhaps 1 for each family member? You can hardly do better — if the water of the region is reasonably clean. It will eliminate the need for plastic bottles. It is so practical that you can be sure thatContinue reading “Zero Waste Gifting”
Keep Your Home, Daughter of the Earth
After a long journey,home feels so good, so welcoming,so refreshing yet fully familiar. After the long journey of the mind,you arrive at home again,your innate spirituality,your belonging to mother Earth. She gives you the same welcomeand comfort and sense of sanitythat all your travels couldn’t— because she is home. Why would you changefor a trip,orContinue reading “Keep Your Home, Daughter of the Earth”
For Next Time
The pattern can be broken. Any pattern. Just choose better. Sometimes the answer comes after thinking deep and hard about the issue too, about how you were responsible and how much or how little it had to do with you. And the answer is the same: choose better for yourself. Choose better. Make it yourContinue reading “For Next Time”
Rut? (What Rut?) Priorities! Flux.
There is no rut. There are routines that give your life stability, more calm, perhaps even more harmony. You benefit from that. That is not what a rut is. There are certain habits that keep you stuck. But you can change them. Not instantly maybe, but by moving into the habits that you prefer, gradually.Continue reading “Rut? (What Rut?) Priorities! Flux.”
Home Is the Body That Holds Your Heart
After every long trip, coming home feels familiar, satisfying and floods you with the love you have put into every detail of your life. The same applies when you drop into your body, after being on a spiritual journey for a long, long time. All the treasures you have sought, or admired in the outside,Continue reading “Home Is the Body That Holds Your Heart”
The Daily Power of Love
If you don’t know how to help a person, send them love telepathically. You can do it silently too. And please receive the kindness of others. A kinder world can only be realized by cooperation. The support of others will boost your belief in it. You don’t have to walk all alone. Once you areContinue reading “The Daily Power of Love”
Oh, Canada, Our Grass Is Greener Because We Water It
Very quietly, without much coverage from the press, Canada has turned itself into a country with a very booming economy and also (a noticeably) reduced poverty. The downside of it is that people are less politically involved (politically interested, attached, or active), but the upside is that so many people are living with more easeContinue reading “Oh, Canada, Our Grass Is Greener Because We Water It”
