For Women and the Men Who Love Them

This past Sunday I watched portions of presidential candidate Donald Trump’s hate-fueled end-of-campaign rally at New York’s Madison Square Garden. Speeches from Trump and others he chose to represent him spewed caustic insults at women, people of color, Puerto Ricans, Jews, Palestinians, immigrants, the homeless, and women, again. The packed hall cheered, as speaker after speaker vented resentments, grievances and hate. What a dark moment for so many, but especially for women and the men who love them.

As a spiritual teacher, I don’t see this election merely as a question of left vs right. I see it as a question of light vs dark: we can commit to living in the light, the highest expression of ourselves, or we can indulge in living in the darker, lowest parts. The political landscape of this US presidential election couldn’t lay that difference out more starkly.

Trump described the United States as an “occupied country.” One speaker called Puerto Rico a “floating island of garbage.” Another described Kamala Harris as the “antichrist.” If you’ve been following the presidential campaign, you know that this hasn’t come out of the blue. Trump has called ordinary Americans who disagree with him the “enemy within.” He incited an insurrection. He put the lives of millions of women at risk by clearing the way for the Supreme Court to overturn the right to abortion. He profited off the presidency. He vows that if elected he will expand presidential power, prosecute political opponents, send immigrants to detention camps or deport them en masse, and use federal troops against U.S. Citizens. And in light of his own felony convictions, he’s highly motivated to get elected so he can pardon himself.

Character matters more than politics. And that’s why the rally of this corrupt, vengeful candidate with 34 felony convictions disturbed me to the core. It is central to my work to unite people and bring out everyone’s best. I do this because I know there’s good in us all. We’re stronger individuals and communities when we appeal to our highest ideals, not our lowest. As cliche as this might sound, our politics truly should unite us, not divide us.

Now compare Trump’s rally to Kamala Harris’ entire campaign centered on a single word: “joy.” She celebrates our country and the American people. She says our diversity makes us strong. She wants to build opportunities, ensure economic security, make housing more affordable, grow small businesses, invest in child care and long-term care, protect women’s rights over their own bodies, lower energy costs, and tackle climate issues. She wants us to do this together, because she sees herself as one of us: an ordinary American, capable of the extraordinary.

And let’s drill down a bit and talk about healthcare and reproductive freedom. I find it astonishing that in 2024 we are even talking about this, again, but here we are. Trump brags about selecting justices for the Supreme Court who overturned Roe v. Wade. He’s proud of taking away the rights of millions of American women to make choices about their own bodies. Ever since Roe was overturned, Americans have suffered and some have even died because of that decision.

In contrast, Kamala Harris champions full healthcare as the fundamental freedom it should be. She vows to restore access to abortion care in federal law. She says women, men and their families should be able to make choices about their health and family planning without political consideration. She wants to ensure doctors’ ability to care for patients without fear of going to jail.

And look at the supporters amplifying Kamala Harris’ message. Of course there’s big Democratic names, and celebrities, like Beyoncé, but also retired military leaders. More than 700 former military, government and national security officials signed an open letter endorsing Kamala Harris, including several former generals. Even former four-star Marine general John Kelly, who served as Trump’s White House Chief of Staff, has endorsed her and says she is his choice as the next Commander in Chief. They all believe that, like Kamala Harris says, what unites us is more important than what divides us.

So while I normally don’t comment about politics, like many, I see this election as a pivotal moment. For all women and the men who love them, let’s aspire to our highest ideals and help shape a future we can be proud of: let’s vote for the light.

October may invite reflection, but the transformation can last all year—if you’re ready to answer

The Spiritual Significance of October: A Time for Reflection and Transformation

October stands as a unique month of transition, offering us an invitation to pause, reflect, and connect with the deeper currents of life. It is a bridge between seasons, ushering us away from the heat and vibrancy of summer into the cooler, quieter months ahead. For those attuned to the energy of the natural world, October carries with it a profound spiritual significance—a call to embrace change, seek clarity, and enter a phase of personal renewal.

This is a time when the natural world begins to shed what it no longer needs. Trees release their leaves, offering a powerful metaphor for our own spiritual journeys. As the landscape prepares to rest, we, too, are asked to let go—whether it’s emotional baggage, old patterns, or ways of being that no longer serve us. October invites us to reflect on what we are holding onto and ask ourselves if it’s time to let go.

The Wisdom of Transition

Throughout history, October has been seen as a sacred time of year. Ancient cultures understood that the shifts in the external world mirrored deeper spiritual processes within. The changing leaves, the cooler air, and the lengthening nights are external reflections of internal shifts that invite us to go inward and take stock.

There is something sacred about the space between what was and what is to come. October holds this liminal energy—a time of transition where we are neither fully anchored in the past nor yet rooted in the future. It’s in this in-between space where powerful spiritual insights can emerge. When we honor this transitional period, we allow ourselves the space to reflect and transform, rather than rushing headlong into the next season of life.

October calls us to slow down, much like the ancient Romans did during this month, when festivals focused on gratitude for the harvest and preparation for the winter months ahead. In many cultures, this was a time to reflect on the year’s work and begin to turn inward, using the harvest not just as a time to gather crops but as a metaphor for gathering the fruits of one’s spiritual journey.

Spiritual Cleansing and Renewal

October is not merely a time for reflection; it is a powerful period for spiritual cleansing. Just as the trees shed their leaves in preparation for winter, so too can we use this time to shed what no longer serves us. This is an ideal time for inner work—whether through meditation, journaling, or simply spending time in nature.

There is a reason that rituals centered around purification often took place during autumn in many ancient traditions. In Japan, the concept of *Misogi*—a purification ritual using water—was performed as a spiritual cleansing during this season. In the same way, October invites us to undergo a personal cleansing, clearing away emotional debris, mental clutter, and spiritual fog. This act of releasing what weighs us down allows us to move forward with greater clarity and purpose.

While we may not perform rituals in the way of our ancestors, the essence of purification remains powerful. You might find yourself drawn to declutter your living space, simplify your routine, or create a sacred practice of letting go. The outer clearing reflects an inner readiness for the new. What parts of your life need to be swept away so that you can move forward more freely?

The Energy of Balance

October also offers a lesson in balance. The month begins with the lingering warmth of early autumn, yet it gradually leads us into the crisper, cooler days. There is a delicate balance between light and dark, between holding on and letting go. It’s no coincidence that this is the time of year when day and night are nearly equal—reminding us to seek balance within ourselves.

This dance between opposing forces is an invitation to examine how we navigate the tensions in our own lives. Are we balancing our work with rest, our inner world with outer responsibilities? The harmony of nature can inspire us to create balance in our personal and spiritual lives. In this way, October teaches us to embrace both light and shadow, recognizing that each has its role in our journey of growth.

The ancient Egyptians, too, revered this balance. They believed that at the time of death, the heart would be weighed against the feather of Ma’at, the goddess of truth and balance. In a more symbolic sense, we can use October as a time to weigh our own hearts—to examine what’s out of balance, to release guilt, fear, or anything else weighing us down.

Preparing for the Quiet of Winter

Though October is vibrant with the colors of autumn, it is also a quiet foreshadowing of the stillness to come. It signals the gradual retreat into the colder, more introspective months. The trees and animals begin to prepare for winter’s quiet, and we, too, are invited to prepare—spiritually and emotionally.

For some, this preparation takes the form of making space for rest and reflection. For others, it is a time to gather inner strength and seek out spiritual guidance. October is a moment of readiness, a time to cultivate the inner resources that will sustain us through the colder, darker months.

In many ways, October is a spiritual gift—a reminder that change is constant, but that with every shift comes an opportunity for growth and renewal. As the earth prepares for its rest, so too can we enter into a period of personal reflection, embracing the cycles of life and trusting that, just as the trees shed their leaves, we, too, will experience renewal and rebirth in the right time.

Conclusion: October as a Teacher

October’s spiritual significance lies in its invitation to reflect, to let go, and to embrace the ever-changing nature of life. It is a month that asks us to slow down and look within, to prepare for what lies ahead by releasing the past. The spiritual lessons of this month are not flashy or dramatic—they are subtle, quiet, and deeply personal.

October teaches us the beauty of transformation, the wisdom of balance, and the power of preparation. As you move through this month, take time to reflect on what October might be asking of you. What do you need to release? Where in your life do you need balance? And how can you prepare yourself for the months to come?

By embracing these questions, you can honor the spiritual significance of October and step into a season of growth and renewal with clarity and grace.

As we reflect on October’s themes of transformation and renewal, it’s important to remember that this process of growth doesn’t have to end with the month.

Intuition: The Powerful Ability Rooted in Your DNA

One of the questions I’m frequently asked is, “When should I absolutely trust my intuition?” And the first — and most crucial — part of my response is, “Pretty much always.”

The Body Knows: How to Unlock Your Intuition for Health and Protection

Have you ever had a gut feeling that something was off—whether about a situation, a person, or even your own health? You might dismiss it as a passing thought, a coincidence. But what if your body is trying to tell you something much more important? What if those subtle signals are actually powerful messages, guiding you toward better health, protection, and well-being?

This is the essence of medical intuition—the ability to tune into your body’s wisdom, listen to its signals, and act on the insights that come from within. In a world where we’re taught to rely on external data, facts, and advice, medical intuition brings us back to our most trusted source: ourselves.

Why Your Body’s Signals Matter

We’ve all had moments where we felt “off” but couldn’t quite pinpoint why. Maybe your stomach clenched when you entered a room. Maybe you felt drained after interacting with someone. Or perhaps you’ve felt a persistent ache that seems to come and go without a clear cause.

These aren’t random occurrences. They are your body’s way of communicating with you. Medical intuition teaches us that our bodies are constantly giving us information—about our environment, our emotions, and even our health. The question is, are we listening?

Most of us have learned to ignore or dismiss these signals. We turn to outside sources—medical professionals, technology, even friends—for answers. While these can be helpful, there is an even deeper, more personal wisdom available to you if you know how to access it.

How Medical Intuition Can Protect You

Did you know that people who are more in tune with their bodies are better at detecting deception? A recent study found that those who were attuned to their body’s subtle cues were better at recognizing when they were being lied to. This kind of awareness doesn’t just protect you in social situations—it can also shield you from scams, fraud, and other potential dangers.

Your body is like a finely-tuned instrument, picking up on energy and signals long before your mind consciously processes them. The key is learning to recognize those signals and trust them.

Imagine walking into a room and instantly sensing that something is off. Your body feels tense, your breath becomes shallow, and you feel an urge to leave. Instead of ignoring these feelings, medical intuition teaches you to acknowledge them, understand why they’re happening, and act accordingly.

The same goes for your health. Your body knows when something isn’t right long before symptoms become obvious. Maybe you’ve felt persistent fatigue or noticed that your mood changes when you eat certain foods. These are signals that your body is sending—signs that something deeper is going on. By tuning into these signals, you can address potential health issues before they become major problems.

The Connection Between Emotion and Physical Health

It’s no secret that emotional well-being and physical health are deeply connected. Stress, anxiety, unresolved trauma—these emotional states don’t just affect your mind. They manifest physically in your body, sometimes in ways that are hard to trace back to their emotional roots.

Medical intuition bridges that gap. By learning to tap into your body’s wisdom, you can identify where emotional issues are stored and how they’re impacting your physical health. Have you ever noticed that your neck tenses up when you’re stressed? Or that your digestion suffers when you’re feeling anxious? These are just small examples of how the mind-body connection plays out.

By becoming aware of these patterns, you can begin to heal both emotionally and physically. Medical intuition allows you to become your own health advocate—using your body’s natural signals as a guide to what needs healing, whether it’s physical, emotional, or both.

Practical Steps to Unlock Your Medical Intuition

If you’re new to the concept of medical intuition, it might feel abstract or even intimidating. But the truth is, this skill is within reach for everyone. Here are some simple ways to start tuning into your body’s wisdom today:

Start with Awareness: Pay attention to the subtle signals your body is sending you throughout the day. Notice when you feel tension, fatigue, or a sudden change in mood. Don’t dismiss these feelings—acknowledge them.

Body Scanning: Take a few minutes each day to do a body scan. Close your eyes and focus on each part of your body, from your head to your toes. Notice any sensations—tightness, warmth, cold, or discomfort. These are signals from your body. Ask yourself what they might mean.

Journaling: Keep a journal of physical sensations and how they relate to your emotions. Over time, you’ll begin to see patterns emerge. Maybe your shoulders tense up during stressful meetings or you feel light and energized after spending time with loved ones. Writing these observations down helps deepen your understanding of your body’s signals.

Breathwork: Breathing deeply and mindfully is one of the simplest ways to connect with your body. When you’re feeling overwhelmed or anxious, take a few slow, deep breaths. This not only calms your nervous system but also brings your awareness back to the present moment, where your body’s wisdom resides.

How Emotional Healing Can Lead to Physical Wellness

For many, the connection between emotional and physical health remains an elusive concept, often treated as separate realms within the human experience.

However, ancient wisdom and modern science are coming to the same conclusion: our emotions and our physical bodies are intricately linked.

When we carry unresolved emotions, they manifest in physical ways—sometimes subtly, sometimes as chronic illness or persistent discomfort.

This blog delves into how healing unresolved emotional pain can lead to profound physical wellness, allowing you to live in greater harmony with yourself.

We’ll explore the deep interplay between emotional wounds and physical ailments, and how embarking on a path of emotional healing, like the journey through can transform not just your mind, but your body as well.

The Emotional-Physical Connection

Think of the last time you experienced deep stress or anxiety.

Perhaps you noticed your stomach tighten, your head ache, or your heart race. This is no accident.

Our bodies respond to emotional stress in ways that are both visible and hidden.

For centuries, healers from various traditions have recognized that emotions not only influence our thoughts and behaviors but also take up residence in our physical bodies.

Modern medicine is catching up. Studies have shown that emotions like anger, grief, and anxiety can contribute to conditions like high blood pressure, digestive issues, and even chronic pain.

When these emotions go unaddressed, they become stored in the body, creating blockages in our energetic and physical systems.

Dr. Gabor Maté, a well-known advocate of the mind-body connection, asserts that suppressed emotions, particularly unresolved grief and anger, can lead to serious illnesses such as autoimmune diseases and cancer.

He argues that many of us are unaware of just how deeply buried emotional traumas shape our physical health. Unresolved emotions don’t just fade away—they accumulate, causing physical wear and tear over time.

The Impact of Unresolved Emotions

Let’s look more closely at how specific emotions manifest physically.

Chronic stress, for example, releases cortisol, a hormone that when elevated over time, can contribute to inflammation in the body.

Inflammation is known to be a root cause of various diseases, including heart disease, diabetes, and even Alzheimer’s.

Grief and sadness, often stored in the lungs, can manifest as respiratory issues like asthma or chronic coughs.

Anger, commonly housed in the liver, can lead to digestive issues, high blood pressure, or even migraines. Anxiety, frequently held in the stomach, is often linked to gut issues such as irritable bowel syndrome (IBS).

These aren’t just metaphorical connections—they are real, tangible expressions of how the body internalizes and reflects our emotional state.

The process of healing the physical body often requires healing these emotional wounds first.

Only when we address the root causes of our emotional pain can we begin to see real change in our physical health.

How Emotional Healing Works

Emotional healing is not simply about “thinking positive” or avoiding negative emotions.

Instead, it’s about facing the pain, anger, or fear that we carry, acknowledging it, and allowing it to be released.

This process often involves diving into the depths of past trauma, unresolved grief, or even unspoken fears that we may not consciously recognize.

The path to emotional healing begins with self-awareness—recognizing how our past experiences have shaped our emotional responses and acknowledging the emotions we have long buried.

Meditation, energy healing, and journaling are all effective methods for identifying and processing these emotions.

The next step is emotional release. This can come through energy healing practices, such as those taught in the LifeForce Energy Healing^® programs, where participants learn to clear energy blockages tied to unresolved emotions. These practices help release pent-up emotional energy, allowing it to flow out of the body rather than stay trapped within. It is in this release that physical healing often begins.

Breathwork and somatic therapies are also powerful tools for releasing emotional energy stored in the body. The simple act of deep breathing can move stagnant energy, while somatic practices teach us to reconnect with the body, allowing us to feel where emotions are being held.

The Ripple Effect of Healing Emotions

When we begin to heal our emotional wounds, a fascinating ripple effect occurs.

As emotional blockages are released, we often find that physical symptoms lessen or disappear altogether. Migraines that were once debilitating may become infrequent.

Chronic pain may fade. Even conditions like high blood pressure or digestive problems may improve as emotional stress is alleviated.

This is not to say that emotional healing is a cure-all for every physical ailment, but it can significantly enhance overall health and well-being. In many cases, it addresses root causes that traditional medical approaches miss.

Beyond the physical improvements, emotional healing brings about a profound sense of peace and lightness.

We become more aligned with our true selves, and as we let go of emotional burdens, we free ourselves to live more fully and authentically.

This emotional liberation often leads to greater self-love, improved relationships, and a renewed sense of purpose.
