What is compassion? Where do we experience it in our life?

The Value of Compassion in Daily Life - Eagle Eye Counseling What is compassion? This is a great question! Where do we experience it in our life? Maybe in our early years, we were touched by a caregiver or a friend. Maybe later in life, we witnessed someone’s true kindness. Interestingly enough, most of us morally acknowledge the intrinsic value of love and...

Inherent Well-Being - Eagle Eye Counseling What could a title like this possibly mean and how does it relate with me, my being? Well, I’m not sure really, but let’s explore. First of all, what it is not. Most of the time, we feel extremely limited, anxious, busy, confused, depressed, driven, competitive, angry, etc. Generally, somehow we...

Dear Friends,

As we enter nearly one year of Pandemic living, many of us are suffering from isolation, disconnection, fear, depression and other concerns.

Given the heightened political situation, tensions are running high.

I am offering free 15-minute counseling initial sessions to Colorado residents, to offer comfort, self-regulation skills, and relationship advice.

Telehealth options are available.

Let’s lean into our inner resources and develop healthy community to overcome the hardship, from the inside out.

I think we are lacking realistic ways to deal with our emotions; either we suppress them and become like a volcano or we express them unskillfully, causing more damage.

Counseling is more effective when a practitioner guides a client to their inner awareness, to develop a more positive way of relating, bringing them back to health, happiness and sanity.

Please call for a free 15-minute consultation, and learn tools to stay grounded in the moment.

Aloha,

Keith

Good morning, friends and family! I wrote something that I want to share with you today. ⠀
⠀
The Dalai Lama often talks about the education of the heart. He says often that many of us in the West have developed strong cognitive faculties but are neglecting the way that we relate with our hearts and our emotions. ⠀
⠀
It is clear that modern culture has emphasized external development and I feel we may have overdone the job. We may have forgotten our inner development in the process of cultivating peace and healthy relationships. ⠀
⠀
As an adolescent, I always felt that the mind was very powerful, and if I just had the right training, I could harmonize my relationship with the world and the environment around me. I was very insecure and found the world confusing at times. I did not find such support available to me and turn to intoxicates like ma*****na and alcohol. ⠀
⠀
Like many of my peers, I checked out because it was too difficult to face insecurity, anxiety, and figuring out who I really am.⠀
⠀
I know I'm not alone in this experience and I look to the new generation of young people who have yet more chaos to face. I am concerned about them. ⠀
⠀
By some good fortune after hitting some low points in my life, I started practicing insight meditation and developing a healthier, more loving identity. Years later, I've returned home and I'm picking up the pieces of relationships I left behind ten years ago. ⠀
⠀
Now that I'm back on island, I'm interested in communicating practices such as loving-kindness and other resources for self-regulation, inner peace, and self-understanding.⠀
⠀
I've noticed how inflammatory our political divide is, how families are separated based on superficial differences. I feel that the cultivation of love and understanding is necessary to bring us into a healthy community to face the despair and chaos which climate change, inequities, and violence have brought us.⠀
⠀
I'm hoping and feeling that there is an incredible opportunity for growth and healing within this process as we collectively face unprecedented changes. With the right tools and mindset, we can create transformation inside our lives to cross the divides and begin working together. ⠀
⠀
⠀
Kind regards, ⠀
Keith

The Interplay between Spirituality and Personal Development

In many circles of people working on themselves, there’s a value placed upon EITHER spiritual or personal development.

The tendency to create a headquarters in either camp is very strong in my experience.

It takes a lot to build a bridge between a clear and deep loving awareness that one finds in spiritual practice, and the nitty gritty of: who am I? How should I spend my life? What are my personal boundaries and needs?

I’m really no expert in this field, but I’m sharing my experience, study, and practice.

The truth is that there are so many ways to learn who we are and develop our integrity.

What are yours? What brings you home? What gets you grounded and aligned with your deeper purpose?

Psychotherapy, meditation, and music have been such avenues in my own life. How do you build a bridge between your deeper self and your everyday personhood?

Cheers! Keith
