Peace for the exhausted seeker.

It’s a fascinating and well-loved category of clients.

The stranded spiritual seeker.

Years of searching, investing, working really hard, but probably more confused than ever before.

‘I understand everything, but I don’t feel it!’ is what they say.

And I get that SO well.

The spiritual path is filled with radiant promises and predictions, full of examples and steps to follow, but it’s simply not a linear trajectory.

You can learn almost anything in life by putting in a lot of effort, but ‘Awakening’ is mostly a random phenomenon.

Self-realization or Ultimate Awakening or Enlightenment or whatever you want to call it, is more about luck or grace than doing the right thing.

You can’t meditate, chant, or breathe yourself straight into it.

It’s just like the teachers often say: ‘Everything is already enlightened so there’s nothing to do.’

Uh.

But what the fuck does that even mean?

You don’t feel enlightened, at all!

Why can’t you just fix it?!

Anyway, I know that, I had that, I WAS that.

Until a couple of years ago, this amazing cosmic joke was recognized.

And now I’m guiding and inspiring other seekers.

Whether that’s about Awakening or not.

Because maybe your thing is happiness, fulfillment, peace of mind, success, or something like finding your soulmate.

Bring it on.

It wouldn’t surprise me if we’ll find something way better.
