Cat Video Still 7 17 21

His life was in my hands. Was it time to put J.C. to sleep? This was the agonizing decision I faced 3 days ago. He might have many years of kitty contentment remaining … or might cost me thousands in medical bills and die anyway. In this 11-minute video, I describe how I used an Internal Family Systems technique — consulting with my “inner council” — to help me make this decision. You can use the same technique to help resolve your own dilemmas! Read more…

June 1, 2021 by Benjamin

Why is my inner guidance telling me that the Aquarian Age has arrived, when the world is still in such turmoil? Apparently, there’s more involved than the song from “Hair” led us to believe. In this 17-minute video, Spiritsong and I discuss how the Aquarian Age is blossoming from the inside out … and how, together, we can help it manifest more quickly in the physical world! Read more…

An Unexpected Reunion

March 21, 2021 by Benjamin 4 Comments

Spiritsong Reunion Video Still Smaller

My romantic partnership with Maeikisala ended in January, after more than 3 years together. During that time, we shared a deep love and commitment to personal growth and service, which helped us evolve and transform in numerous wonderful ways. When Maeikisala and I agreed to part ways, neither I nor my ex-wife Spiritsong dreamed that we would come back together as a couple. And it was a complete surprise when it happened so quickly! In this 36-minute video, Spiritsong and I discuss how our unexpected reunion came about. We also share openly about the joys and challenges of our previous time together, the role she’ll be playing in my Awakening Plus membership, and more! Read more…
