What is sacred to one of us may not be to another, but there is a sense of the sacred in all of us. But how does one explore the sacred without necessarily exploring the prototypes and doctrines of religion per se? Sometimes we may look to the sacred to help us to connect to the religion, but that does not always work in reverse order. Our guest for today has studied many diverse religions and spiritual pathways and can guide us in our search for the sacred. Jonathan Ellerby, PhD, is the author of "Return to the Sacred: Ancient Pathways to Spiritual Awakening." He has been around the world to study under spiritual teachers from more than 40 different cultures, including a Lakota Sioux Native American healer for fifteen years and a Venda African healer for seven. He spends his time now helping others to awaken to a deeper spiritual path. If you are yearning to connect with the sacred, don't miss this show.

Ever accuse yourself of whining? Then kick yourself back into gear and get back into the same old rut, only to end up whining again later? Our parents all taught us not to whine. And, frankly, nobody else wants to hear it. But underneath that whine may be the voice of your authenticity, trying to inform you of your soul's longings. So, instead of kicking yourself back into gear, maybe it's time to stop and listen awhile. But how does one begin to listen? And how does one listen without falling into a puddle of pitiful? Typically we think that the terms authenticity and complaint are oxymorons. But every emotion is informative. Feel like whining? Tune in to Authentic Living this week. Maybe you'll find out what you are trying to tell yourself.

One of the stages of grief is bargaining. It's when, for example, someone is dying and s/he makes a bargain with God to live longer. It's natural, in that sense, to want to get what we want through bargaining. But like all the other stages of grief, bargaining is also a stage of acceptance—a stage in which many of us get stuck for entire lifetimes. Bargains look like this: IF I THEN you'll…. Or, IF you, THEN I'll…. IF/THEN. That's a bargain. But often these are bargains with the devil in which we sell our souls for a magic trick. IF I stay and become very loving, THEN he won't hit me again. IF I hang into this heinous job for ten more years THEN I can retire and finally get to do what I want. IF I say the right magical word or do the righ magical deed, THEN she will stop drinking. And these are just examples of the more obvious. Are you bargaining? Come learn how to stop bargaining and start LIVING!

Most of us are not even fully aware of the number of times a day when we operate out of fear. It compels our beliefs, our thoughts, our emotions and our actions like an underground river moves and shifts the earth. We don't just protect ourselves, which is our right; we overprotect ourselves, and in so doing we create so many security blankets that our authenticity has to break through as a crisis in order to be heard! All the while, we are euphemistically changing its terms to anxiety and stress. But it's really just fear, folks; fear that is so familiar that we don't realize its daily influence. In fact, in our world, to not be afraid is to betray social mores, social constructs that mandate us all to stay in the same mindset. But fear is produced by duality—the belief that we are here alone on this planet with no one to tend us but random luck, or worse yet, we are left to our own devices. Are you afraid? Tune in—you may be surprised at the remedy to fear.

Now, I know we don't want to think of it this way. We want to think of crises as the enemy. But really a crisis is an opportunity to expand awareness, to resolve issues that have been hanging around for a long time waiting for resolution and finally, to come to know and accept your authenticity at a whole new level. Crises usually create pain of some type, physical, mental, spiritual and/or emotional pain. And a true crisis usually cannot be solved by using the same old methods we've used before—methods that typically only forestall a resolution and even may mire us deeper in the problem. So, crises challenge us to be creative. They push us to go down into deeper parts of ourselves to find new answers, new meaning, even new paths. Are you having a crisis? Tune in to find out how you can make this crisis into a new creative endeavor to build the life you want from the roots up.
