A Road Through the Woods…
…a personal and spiritual journey and some of the road signs that help me find my way…

This abandoned road ran through the woods behind my home in rural Mississippi in the early 1970’s…

I have discovered a few things on my path:

There is no destination – the journey is the thing.

The road of personal growth and spiritual development is well traveled today. Our seeking leads us down many roads, some useful, some frustrating.

We are exactly where we are supposed to be, doing exactly what we are supposed to be doing. Every thing happens for a reason and a purpose and there is value in where we are, right now, at this point in our journey.

Self help

A spiritual advisor told me that I was the self help industry’s dream – trying to improve myself enough to actually like myself, maybe even love myself. It kind of insulted me when she said it.

But I realized that if every situation and condition in my life – my relationships, my health, my bank account – if every thing in my life reflects to what extent I love and accept myself – well, how am I not loving myself enough? Let me count the ways.

Tools for passing through shadows

I’ve been passing through a space of shadows for the past several years. Using these tools, I can finally see a little daylight ahead. This web site is a dream I am living. I am earning my master's in journalism, another dream. Some things are going well, some are not. Maybe you can identify with me.

I used the following tools to move forward out of that dark space – and now I can tell you I feel more alive and joyful than I ever have.

Let me share with you the road signs and guide posts that help me on my Journey toward loving and accepting myself more, toward living a happy and fulfilled life. These are the tools that I am finding most effective in getting to know myself, increasing self-esteem, dealing with depression and feelings of hopelessness, and creating a better life. If I can live the life of my dreams, you can do it, too. (back to top)

 Great Books:

"You Can Heal Your Life" and "The Power is Within You"
by Louise Hay

I found Louise Hay's books at a time of personal crisis almost ten years ago. This book literally saved my life. I have dealt with depression and feelings of inadequacy all my life. This book, and its follow-up, was life changing.

You Can Heal Your Life is an eye-opening experience written in loving kindness from a woman who has experienced some of the toughest situations life can offer. Now she is a beloved spiritual teacher. Her books can change your life if you let that be okay.  [Buy this book or get more information from Amazon  You Can Heal Your Life/101]

The Power Is Within You is a great follow up to You Can Heal Your Life. This book shows you how to overcome emotional barriers through learning to listen and trust your inner voice; experiencing your true feelings; allowing yourself to receive prosperity; expressing your creativity. It includes meditations for personal and planetary healing. [Buy this book or get more information from Amazon The Power Is Within You ](back to top)

Conscious Loving, Conscious Living

Gay Hendricks is a co-author of “Conscious Loving, the Journey to Co-commitment,” and “Conscious Heart,” but the book that was written for me is “Conscious Living, Finding Joy in the Real World.” My favorite quote: “We always get what we are committed to having, no exceptions.” 

[Buy this book or get more information from Amazon Conscious Living : Finding Joy In the Real World]

I also recommend:

 Conscious Loving: The Journey to Co-Commitment

 Conscious Breathing: Breathwork for Health, Stress Release, and Personal Mastery

Learning to Love Yourself

The web site address for the Hendricks Institute is http://www.hendricks.com

"We are committed to creating a world in which everyone can enjoy loving relationships, bodymind vibrance and soul-satisfying work. If that's your commitment, too, we hope our resources can serve you and our paths can intersect. Our blessings to you, Kathlyn and Gay Hendricks"

And, yes, they have a newsletter!

Meditation Programs

Centerpointe

I am now using the Level Two meditation tapes. This is an amazing program. When I first used the Level One tapes, I felt like “nothing was happening” but then I found change coming in unexpected ways. The cost will floor you at first, but it has certainly been worth it for me… and money has always been one of my challenges. Try the free demo. If you don’t want to try the program yet, subscribe to the free newsletter. (back to top)
