We know all too well how difficult life can be when we are under stress. Professor Pete Alexander certainly does. After working the majority of his life in a variety of high pressure jobs, Pete found himself stricken with stress related diabetes, specifically diabetic ketoacidosis. In fact he was hours away from slipping into a coma. That’s when he decided that his health had to come first. That was the day he decided to leave the high pressure world of corporate America and instead help those very people in that world handle stress.

On day two of Tricycle week I read a great article that talks about how even the thought of embarking on enlightenment creates a challenge. The intention of seeking a spiritual path is the very thing that keeps us from experiencing it. The notion that there is and isn’t a spiritual path reinforces duality that keeps us from experiencing anything but separation.
