Dreams have no expiration date....winter gloom brings summer blooms...smell the roses, imagine them, touch them...they will be here in short order....for now, watch the raindrops, the snow, fog and dew...the clouds will lift in the morning and display nature's glory..... Read more [...]

Connected To God: Naturally Birthed

January 28, 2013 Daria Brezinski, PhD 0
Infants are close to divinity. That soft spot, hole or anterior fontanelle at the top of their little heads, which eventually closes, is the sign that the umbilical cord that connects the be-ing to the other side is closing. Many years ago, worried clients had an intercom placed in the new babies' room because Beth, their 3-year-old daughter, would constantly go visit her newborn brother. The parents’ overhead her conversations, which she addressed to her little brother proclaiming, "Please Read more [...]

Western Children are Spiritual or religious?

January 27, 2013 Daria Brezinski, PhD 0
Something that fascinates me is how people claim to be Spiritual but not religious associating Religion with the institution (prayer, dogma, rituals, edifices) and Spirituality with everything else. From my view, RELIGION abounds in the US with something other than attending churches and synagogues. CAPITOLISM is a world religion. Individuals spend their money based on their beliefs with vigor, passion and zeal. People who travel in ‘spiritual’ circles seek classes, mediums, meditate, and speak Read more [...]

Teaching to the Small Voice Within

January 27, 2013 Daria Brezinski, PhD 0
I too have been speaking about the issue regarding ‘norms’ and 'deferring to higher authority' for years even to Congress. The very problem exists in the way we 'educate' our children. From the earliest stages, adults are the authority figures that children look to for spoon fed answers (instead of allowing them to discover), to intercede when problems arise (instead of teaching them mediation skills) and to inject themselves in every aspect of a child's life (control). There is no room in the Read more [...]

Common Sense or Lack

January 26, 2013 Daria Brezinski, PhD 0
The lack of common sense is rampant and has been for a long time. The notion is that logic prevails but logic is no longer dictated by morals, values, integrity, honesty, compassion, commitment even reality but rather scientific inquiry, manipulating results, financial abundance and fame- infamous and otherwise. However, the focus on the material, financial, physical, intellectual leaves an imbalance, gap, void in the mystical, magical, emotional, spiritual, intangible qualities of life. In such Read more [...]

In-The-Box Living

January 23, 2013 Daria Brezinski, PhD 0
Boxes-A Poem We TRAVEL in boxes We WORK in boxes We SLEEP in boxes We EAT in and out of boxes We PLAY in boxes We LEARN in boxes We PURCHASE goods in boxes We receive GIFTS in boxes We CLASSIFY things in boxes by naming and categorizing them We WATCH and LISTEN to technology in boxes all day Even when we PLAY with a ball, it’s usually in a box IS IT ANY WONDER We can’t Think, Feel, See, Imagine or Believe Out-Of-The-Box? By Daria M. Brezinski in Sacred Identity; A Poetry Book Read more [...]

Ancient Aliens in Our Memory

January 22, 2013 Daria Brezinski, PhD 0
Is the fascination with Ancient Aliens a distant memory to recover or re- re-member or just the creative processes of the brain playing games/tricks to explain the unexplainable? If I have a longing feeling or feel alienated, alone, in search for something that feels like Home or familiar or safe, the place that feels ‘right’, am I in fact searching for my roots elsewhere in the universe, a distant memory? Modern humans are scratching the surface towards understanding how the brain (and emotions) Read more [...]

Response to God in the Classroom

January 22, 2013 Daria Brezinski, PhD 0
White Europeans did not discover America. According to archeological data, this country was founded LONG before historical records indicate...as per the copper mines in Ohio dating back 6000 years as well as other sites across the US with artifacts dating back 10,000 years (see Archeology Magazine and American Archeology). The modern history of the invasion of American soil (and by that I mean, North America, South and Canada) was all about enterprise in one form or another not god. So 'discovery' Read more [...]

SPIRITUALITY

January 22, 2013 Daria Brezinski, PhD 0
The notion that the ‘all-that-is’ is something 'beyond us' or 'outside of us' instead of 'within us', in my opinion, is the reason why we have difficulties. The most significant transition away from ‘Self’ began with Descartes who said that the mind and body are separate. It is time for us to re re-member, stop the separation and unite ourselves with ourselves and each other; stop departmentalizing and see ourselves as whole. With that notion, EVERYTHING is us, good and bad, evil and not. Read more [...]
