We’re a culture that medicates our pain. We medicate our physical pain. We medicate our emotional pain. And our medicine may not necessarily be of the pharmaceutical sort. It may be workaholism. It may be other “medicines” that distract us from sensations and feelings, like food, substances, relationships. Even addiction to yoga. (I’ve been there.)

Dr. Trish and Mr. Benjamin on the Power of Love. Self-love. To transform not only yourself but all that you experience beyond.
Dr. Trish and Mr. B, from the Ramble in Central Park, on a brisk, sunny Thursday in February….
Dr. Trish offers up some wisdom on the power of letting go, of releasing our effort, of stopping trying to change circumstances and situations in our lives.
Rather, it’s through our experience of the present moment, of finding the peace and stillness there, that we can be moved to action, effortlessly. Without trying.
Whatever is going on in your life, whether it’s a health issue, a relationship challenge, concern for a loved one, financial issues, or anything else — the path to shifting whatever is going on will come with ease, when you stop, pause, and surrender to the present moment.
This is where you’ll find peace within, and all that’s needed, all the answers, and clarity around any actions to take.
Dr. Trish offers up a short breathing exercise for you to experience just that.
More on how releasing our effort, how stopping trying, can be more powerful and effective than trying, with great effort, to change circumstances and situations and our lives.
It’s from a place of peace, of stillness, that all meaningful and effective change occurs. And we find that place of peace, of stillness, by releasing our effort.
Dr. Trish explains the science of it all. Take a look, and experiment with this notion a little bit, and see what happens!

Unscripted and spontaneous, Dr. Trish and Benjamin come to you from a hill in Central Park near the Lake, aka Venice in New York, and just a little way from the sailboat pond. It’s a rather mild December day.
Dr. Trish offers up one of her favorite topics: consciousness. And she muses “Just what if?….”
Just what if consciousness didn’t start at birth and end at death. What if consciousness is non-local, meaning it doesn’t reside in our bodies, or anywhere in us, for that matter.
What if an essential aspect of us remains when we die, when we leave our bodies. And what if an essential aspect of ourselves precedes our physical birth?
Crazy ideas to wrap our minds around? Such stuff as dreams are made on?
Well, as Dr. Trish explains, these notions have been fundamental to the ancient wisdom traditions, and now, modern science is beginning to chime in.
There’s a vast body of excellent scientific research supporting the veracity of all of these musings.
Dr. Trish closes with an offering: how might we live better, even die better, if we could wrap our minds around these ideas?
How might we find freedom from the fear of illness that is rampant nowadays, and the fear of dying and death? And that very fear can even make us ill and hasten our passing.
We would live better, we would die better, and we probably even be more likely to return to our bodies that depart, when faced with illness.
Freedom from fear. It’s a potent medicine for liberation from suffering, and even the best medicine for healing.
Enjoy!
Dr. Trish and Benjamin meet with their friend Jose, who offers his wonderful words of wisdom on what we need to live in peace today, and to be well.

Enjoy!

It changes your brain chemistry. It can even heal you. And transform your life. No kidding.
Enjoy!
Dr. Trish and Mr. Benjamin visit with you from their usual perch in Central Park’s Ramble, by the lake.
