Mindfulness Stops Negativity from Sticking Like Glue

February 9, 2019 by Ed and Deb Shapiro

Did you ever get into a heated argument with someone over a meaningless issue, only to find it constantly replaying itself in your head, as if it’s stuck to you like glue? You don’t want to think of the other person yet now you’re attached to them; despite the situation or encounter being over, it […]

Are You Hanging Out With Fear?

March 6, 2018 by Ed and Deb Shapiro

There are many things to feel fearful about these days. While anger is hot and loud, fear is more subtle and pervasive. It also has many different disguises. On the one hand, fear is a natural response to physical danger, but on the other it can be self-created, such as the fear of failure, of […]

Taming The Dragons In Your Mind

January 23, 2018 by Ed and Deb Shapiro

Soon after Nelson Mandela was released from 27 years in jail Bill Clinton asked him if he was angry about how he had been treated. “Tell me the truth, when you were walking to freedom, didn’t you hate them?” Clinton asked, referring to Mandela’s jailors. “You must have been so angry!” “Sure I was,” Mandela […]

How To Get Your Motivation Going

September 19, 2017 by Ed and Deb Shapiro

We watched as an eager young CNN television reporter asked the Dalai Lama what was the first thing he thought of when he awoke in the morning. We thought that this revered teacher and probably the world’s most well known meditator would say something deeply profound or insightful, such as along the lines of vowing […]

One Way Your Ego Trips You Up

April 6, 2016 by Ed and Deb Shapiro

One Christmas, when we were living in Brighton, England, we volunteered at a church that regularly feeds the homeless and needy at that time of year. But it was more than the hungry ones who got fed that day. After we happily dished out large helpings of turkey, mashed potatoes and gravy, followed by pudding […]

5 Ways To Enhance Your Relationship

March 27, 2016 by Ed and Deb Shapiro

Shortly after we were married, we went to India and spent our honeymoon in ashrams and monasteries. We were fortunate enough to have a private meeting with the Dalai Lama at his residence in McCleod Ganj, in the foothills of the Himalayas. “After some thirty minutes of talking I was feeling so moved by this […]

Finding Your Sanity in the Midst of Chaos

March 13, 2016 by Ed and Deb Shapiro

The question is, has the world gone nuts? It certainly looks like a lot of people are being driven by fear, hatred and greed. The protests in Chicago, the rising anger and animosity, is to the detriment of us all. Is it not time for some real sanity? Losing our sanity is about getting so […]

Why Saying Yes To Yourself Is The Most Important Thing You Can Do

March 4, 2016 by Ed and Deb Shapiro

I have too much to do! My boss is so demanding! My mother-in-law always needs my help! I have so many meetings / orders to be filled / classes to teach / deliveries to be made…the list is endless. But in the midst of everything that is being asked of you, what happens to you? […]

Will The Real Deepak Chopra Please Stand Up

February 5, 2016 by Ed and Deb Shapiro

The great Swami Satchidananda always said that we only need to have faith the size of a mustard seed. Such faith proved itself to us in an unusual way. We were teaching a weekend meditation program in Plymouth, a fairly rural town in Devon, England. On the Friday evening an excited student told us that […]

The Amazing Relationship Between Your Mind and Body

January 8, 2016 by Ed and Deb Shapiro

In Woody Allen’s movie, Annie Hall, Diane Keaton is breaking up with Woody and wants to know why he isn’t angry. “I don’t get angry,” Allen replies, “I grow a tumor instead.”  We tend to think of our bodies and minds as separate systems and believe they function independently. Yet can you remember the last […]
