The Holidays: Five Teachings
No matter what you celebrate, how you celebrate –or don’t celebrate– the holidays are an opportunity for reflection, integration, action and new beginnings.
Why Being in Service Fills Us Up
I believe when any of us find a way to be compassionately active, when we participate in a cause we believe in, whatever form our service takes, it takes our inner process to a whole other level. I myself have experienced this so many times. Old wounds or limiting believe systems just simply relax by holding space for another in need.
An Ongoing Struggle with My Body
When I was 8 years old, I picked up a black permanent marker and wrote all over the things in my room, “I hate myself”. And I really did hate myself. I hated what I looked like, who I was, my limited view of the world around me. I thought that I was disgusting and that everyone else thought so too.
Creativity and your Three Selves
Creativity is one of those ‘things’ that we are in relationship with and do not fully realize it. We have to cultivate and foster that relationship in order for it to grow.
The Joy of Full Self-Expression
Whatever happened to those days of being completely self-expressed? You know what I am talking about…. when we were little and ran around doing really weird things like jumping over imaginary animals, laughing out loud, making ridiculous faces and screaming at the top of our lungs?
What if Creative Blocks are Just a Part of the Process?
Winter turns to Spring which turns to Summer and then Fall. The process of being creative, of living, often reflects these same cycles. What if this is not something to fight against, but something to learn to value and work with as part of our creative journey?
The Voice of Our Creative Stories
As a recovering type-A overachiever who values hard work and accomplishment, I have spent most of my life battling against the constant loop in my head that tells me creativity is a waste of time. The tape has a variety of different messages for me, some of which you might relate to…
Would you like some Help with Letting in the Good?
At COR, the July theme has been Joy, Celebration and Letting in the Good. On the transformational journey, we are often so quick to dive into the pain, but joy is just as important, has just as much to teach us, and is in fact a deep part of our true nature.
It’s Time to Let in the Good!
COR’s theme for the month of July is another important aspect of the transformational journey: Letting in the Good! So what does this even mean? Essentially, letting in the good is the ability to recognize when something positive or good is happening and to actually...
What are you ready to commit to?
At COR, the June theme has been Commitment and Integrity, two very important pillars of the transformational journey. We’ve had two people take on this subject, from Freida’s Introductionto this theme, about how she learned a lesson in integrity as soon as she signed...
The COR Theme for June is Commitment & Integrity
The theme for the month of June is Commitment & Integrity. At COR, we believe that Commitment & Integrity are rooted in the idea of self-responsibility. But what is self-responsibility? COR defines it as, "We are responsible for ourselves. It is essential for...
The Discomfort of Surrender
The idea of surrendering and trusting certainly feels compelling in theory. I don’t know about you, but when I read Lee’s intro, Freida’s and Jen’s stories, and Britta’s practices, I could feel my body relax. I thought, “Yeah, that feels right. I want that surrender....
Letting Go is hard to do sometimes. Here are some Great Free Resources to support you with it!
At COR, the May theme has been Surrender, Trust and Letting Go; all very important pillars of the transformational journey. We have had several people’s take on this subject, from Lee’s introduction to this theme, about how if surrender is an act of giving over, trust...
My Journey with Surrender
Surrender. I hate that word. It is the embodiment of the idea that I can't control everything, and I really, really want to believe that I am the one in control. Or, at least, I did. When I first started my work at COR over two years ago, the idea of letting go of...
Surrender & Trust in my marriage
Last fall, I was struggling in my marriage. For the first time, I was concerned and scared that we wouldn't be able to make it. Our marriage felt hopeless and irreparable. We were having a hard time communicating and feeling safe with each other. It was the darkest...
