Love and fear and the two main motivators in our lives. Almost everything we do could be understood as an act or love or and act of fear. When we choose love, we are rooted in growth, hope, courage and willingness. Unless we are in real danger, most of the time, when we are rooted in fear, we are driven by hopelessness, contraction, and destructive forces which devolve us and make us small. The good news is that growing in love allows us to overcome fear. ----- ⁠Please follow me on Insight Timer!⁠ Rate, Review & Subscribe on Apple Podcasts.

There are two kinds of guilt. Healthy guilt is when we act badly and our own conscience in letting us know we need to change our behavior. Unhealthy guilt is triggered when we step outside of the often unwritten codes and expectations of our families, cultures, religions or other institutions. Unearned, or innapropriate guilt, is rooted in the judgement, beliefs or feelings of others. It is external. Healthy or appropriate guilt is rooted in our own internal value systems and inner integrity. Often these external and internal value systems are in conflict. Renee talks about being a criminal, making amends, and the often complex choices each of us will make as we navigate the path of our own evolution and growing integrity. Being conscious about the origins of our guilt can help us make mature choices that relieve us of unearned guilt. ----- Please follow me on Insight Timer! Rate, Review & Subscribe on Apple Podcasts.

The Four Noble Truths of Buddhism are:  1. Suffering is real  2. Suffering has a cause 3. Suffering can end 4. There is a path out of suffering Renee talks about addiction as a trauma response and as an attempt to escape suffering. But addiction actually becomes a source of suffering itself.

Surrender is associated with defeat, but the ego deflation of admitting our limitations can open the door to suprising and unexpected solutions. In fact, it is often only through true surrender of our own limited will, that Divine will or the grace of God/Goddess can enter. Humility, openmindedness and willingness to "let go and let God," can be not just a relief, but an actual life saver. ----- Please follow me on Insight Timer!

We always have three choices in any relationship. We can accept things as they are. We can ask for change. We can remove ourselves. There are many ways that people can be difficult. Two patterns that can be challenging are victims and bullies. Not suprisingly, bullies and victims often interact with each other like a symbiotic pair.  ----- Please follow me on Insight Timer!

Our Shadow is all the things that are a source of shame, guilt and fear that we hide from others and even from ourselves. Often our shadow side is denied or even unconscious - we don't acknowledge that it exists. Shadow holds our anger, greed, lust, jealousy, all the secrets of our lower self or the things that we believe will render us unlovable or unacceptable.   The shadow often drives us in powerful, addictive, compulsive ways. But there is positive life force in all aspects of the self. Facing, healing and making peace with our shadow selves can restore us to wholeness and even open us to the grace of God.  ----- Please follow me on Insight Timer!

There is a spiritual principle that "the truth will set us free." The shadow aspect of this principle is that we are as sick as our secrets. Renee talks about her experiences with drug addiction and alcoholism, shop lifting and dating married men, and how learning to tell the truth completely changed the course of her life.  Like walking a spiral staircase, we can revisit our perspectives on ourselves and our experiences over and over as we grow and mature. These changing perspectives point to the idea that even the truth is relative and needs to be examined and re-examined over time. ----- Please follow me on Insight Timer!

Living your dreams is not a luxury. In fact, the roots of depression, anxiety, addiction and much of our dysfunction may be found in our unrealized desires, our unexpressed talents and our undiscovered joy. We are each a unique expression of divinity with something to offer into the stream of life. When we don't live our dreams, we suffer. Supporting and nourishing our authentic self in the world is the path to happiness and fulfillment that most of us are looking for. Renee gives some practical tips and tools for finding that inner compass that can guide you along the path of your deepest dreams and desires. ----- Please follow me on Insight Timer!

Perfectionism is a lie that kills creativity and tells us that we are not good enough, unworthy, unacceptable as we are. What makes people happy is progress and seeking perfection stifles our efforts to just show up, do our best and let go of the results. There are perfect moments. There is always room to grow. But there is not such thing as sustained perfection. Perfection is a fallacy. ----- Please follow me on Insight Timer! Rate, Review & Subscribe on Apple Podcasts.

Spirit release and spirit attachment are aspects of working with the dead that are foreign to modern Western culture. But, there is more going on in the metaphysical realms than we might be aware.

Knowing when to be open and when to close ourselves in the different areas of our lives is an important skill that can have big implications for our relationships, our work and our general life experience. Many of us were raised in dysfunction and didn't develop healthy systems for opening and closing emotionally, sexually, financially, socially, creatively or professionally. Learning to discern when to close ourselves and when to open is a helpful tool for making good choices and supporting our best self in the world. ----- Please follow me on Insight Timer!

Hope is a wonderful, energizing attitude. There are many things to hope for in life. But when we lay our hopes on others to change or on outside circumstances to make us happy, we can become discouraged, bitter or worse, stuck in patterns of hopeless hope. Renee examines the Serenity Prayer as an instuction guide for healthy hope and where best to put our energies for personal empowerment and positive, constructive change in our lives. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/spiritualpsikology/message

Many of us feel trapped in lives of seeming priviledge that don't fulfill our deeper needs. We think we "should" be happy with the house, the relationship or the job we have, but deep inside we are depressed, unhappy, wanting something more. When we get in touch with our emotional truth, what we find can set us free. The solutions to our suffering may lie in the feelings we have about our problems themselves. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/spiritualpsikology/message

We can cultivate love like we cultivate a garden. We can grow flowers or fruits with care and attention. We can let the land grow wild, or we can water the weeds. What we focus on expands. Do we focus on the flaws of other and ourselves, or do we focus on what is good and what we want to harvest in our relationships? ----- Check out our free upcoming events and Masterclasses here.

Energy Vampires suck the life force of others. When we feel drained, abused or resentful in our interactions with others, we may be in the presence of an energy vampire.

Asking the right questions will get us the answers we seek. It may take some time to answer the biggest questions in life, but if we "live the question," we are more apt to live into the answers. Renee talks about her own winding path through business adventures in Russia, cleaning houses and ultimately finding her life's work in Spiritual Psi-Kology. If we learn to live into our questions, like "What is my soul's purpose?" or "What brings me joy?" the Universe will answer us in surprising ways.  ----- Check out our free upcoming events and Masterclasses here.

There's a difference between what we want and what we need, but it's easy to confuse them. Wants tend to be material or superficial, while needs make us healthy and whole. When we spend time and energy chasing what we want we will often end up disappointed because the deeper needs driving us remain unfulfilled. When we can clarify and meet those deeper needs, we will often magically get what we want anyway. ----- Check out our free upcoming events and Masterclasses here. Please follow me on Insight Timer!

Inner Demons are our unresolved emotional issues, old wounds, fears and dysfunction. False gods are the people, places and things we chase after thinking they will make us happy or fulfilled.
