"The whole point of transforming our heart and mind is to find happiness. We all have the natural desire to be happy and the wish to overcome suffering. This is a fact so we can make it our starting point."

- the Dalai Lama

Conscious Freedom can be your starting point.

Welcome!

    Welcome to the World of Conscious Freedom

    We want to introduce you to your new state of being:
    In conscious freedom:

    • You know that you’ll be okay no matter what.
    • You think well of yourself and lack self-criticism.
    • You’ve lost interest in judging others.
    • You believe feeling good is your natural state.
    • You expect the best outcome all the time.
    • You trust yourself and your choices.
    • You have a strong impulse to be curious.
    • You want the best for others.

    How does it feel to be described this way? What would your life be like?

    Your Mind

    Understanding your mind allows you to see a little more clearly why you do what you do and think what you think.

    What is your mind?

    How do you know you have a mind? You know because you have an “experience” of it. It can’t be seen and it doesn’t have an exact location. The formless quality of it contributes to its mystifying nature.

    The mind has 3 main parts. The conscious mind, the subconscious mind and the spirit mind.

    Automatic Existence

    We created the term automatic existence to reflect the life you experience when you’re clueless about the deeply held negative beliefs your early programming created. It‘s life on autopilot, made up of patterns and habits and a lot of beliefs that don’t serve you.

    In automatic existence you believe that:

    Root Shadows

    Beliefs are the foundation of your life experience. In short, your beliefs are what drive your bus. The thoughts, feelings and results you experience today come from the foundational beliefs in your mind.

    The dictionary defines beliefs as: Acceptance by the mind that something is true or real often supported by an emotional or spiritual sense of certainty.
    You’ve got a whole set of beliefs; ones about right and wrong, safety, money, love, family, food, etc. All of these beliefs are stored in your mind. Some of them you know about and some of them are hidden from you. Have you ever considered the possibility that some of these beliefs may be hurting you?

    The Shift

    The Shift in action:

    “When I started this inner journey, I didn’t actually believe that my life would change so much. As I kept practicing this new way of thinking—and I really had to make myself do that at first—things began to feel better. I felt calmer and more like I knew what I was doing instead of questioning myself all the time.” -BD

    One of the tools we share with you is how to tell the difference between the thoughts that reinforce the beliefs you want to get rid of and the thoughts that represent the beliefs you want to keep.

Why get a Coach?

I’ve had a number of different coaches in my life and have had a variety of experiences with them–ALL GOOD! I want to share what’s possible when you select a great coach for yourself. This is the shopping list: A great coach challenges, nudges, understands, encourages, pays attention, supports, believes in you, wants you to [...]

Coaching to Freedom

We help people feel better about themselves. We focus on that because everything you think about your life and the world starts with how you feel about yourself. Our process takes you from the habit of beating yourself up, endless self doubt and the negative thoughts you’re recycling right now to a life that feels [...]

Addressing Resistance

Here’s an excerpt from a follow up to a recent coaching session. We were addressing the resistance that comes up around doing this work, the disbelief, and defenses. Because of the depth of the work and how our minds function, it is rare for a client not to bump up against some resistance: “It’s really [...]

Coaching with Sara

I worked with Sara long distance on the telephone for approximately 2 months. When I asked for her help, I was 77 years old and stuck in a place of fear that had lasted off and on for over 11 years. I had done much psychotherapy, EMDR, and some EFT to deal with the aftermath [...]

The Invitation

We invite people to explore and discover what Conscious Freedom means. We’re describing a state of being that is chosen deliberately–not attached to any particular spirituality but innately spiritual. Our human potential has barely been tapped–and for some of us–this is an undiscovered landscape full of pure creative potential.

Life is Supposed to Feel Good

If we come from the belief that life is supposed to feel good, we can check in with ourselves regularly to adjust the things we can, let go of the things we can’t change and keep an eye on that “prize”. Much like we do with a Life Purpose Statement, which we reference on a [...]

What Moves You?

A beautiful moonrise? A colorful sunset? A smiling baby? An inspiring story? Look for things that move you. It will make you feel more alive and connected to the magic of life. Go for it.

When’s a Good Time to Feel Better?

It’s never too late or too soon to feel better about yourself. The best place to start is by choosing happiness. When I choose happiness over my old way of looking at things, I seek it out, I get creative in how I perceive people and the things that happen around me. This is not [...]

What’s Your Story?

We all have a story that we lead with when meeting new people–and probably repeat with friends on a regular basis. This is our answer and explanation when we’re asked: What are you up to?, What’s your work? How are you doing? We’ve got a script that we fit into those slots that describes our [...]

Self Worth

What’s That Feeling?

How much we value ourselves is a feeling inside of us that can be hard to pin down. On the one extreme it’s the feeling that: Nothing matters, there’s no point in making an effort, that life is not playing out in our favor, essentially, that we are a victim of circumstances and we’re not [...]

Self Worth

Self Acceptance

How much you value yourself determines who you are, what you do, and what you get out of life. What would your life be like if you accepted yourself completely? What does that mean? Does it mean that you would never improve? Does it mean that you’re “done”? Does it mean that you’d be “settling”? [...]

No One Else Can Do It For You

You are the only one who can exact change in your life. It’s the honest truth. I found myself in my earlier years, wanting a magic pill, or someone to come and rescue me from my misery and internal suffering. Guess what! Nobody’s coming to rescue you! So you might as well take the bull [...]

Self Worth and Self-Esteem

I can’t say enough about how fundamental this issue is. How you feel about yourself affects every area of your life and is fundamentally important to your ability to access happiness. There are 6 main areas to address when building self-esteem and building self worth. They are Living Consciously Self Acceptance Responsibility Purpose Integrity Self [...]

Where the Rubber Meets the Road

What does it take for you to follow through on an intention? How many times have you “practiced failure” by setting an intention and for whatever reasons, let it go after awhile? I know, you can justify it in so many ways….. But let’s get real! What is truly happening here? I’m addressing the level [...]

The Truth about Life–and You

Who are you really? You are a magnificent being. You are Powerful, Worthy and Abundant. When you feel that way about yourself you know that you are connected to your source. It is what defines Conscious Freedom. Everything is open to you. The possibilities are endless for you and everyone around you. If you don’t [...]
