Vital Spark was created as part of my natural transition through education, career, parenting, business ownership and addiction to recovery. Vital Spark has come from my desire to simply enhance my own life while benefiting other addicts, my community and the world. http://lisacolbert.ca

Mission: To become more of what I want to be by helping others become who they were meant to be. To inspire people to practice the values in the If Everyone... poem and motivate people to create a momentum that spreads the message around the world.

7 Simple Bedtime Meditations for Better Sleep — Rachael Kable

“A human being is a part of the whole, called by us universe, a part limited in time and space. He experiences himself, his thoughts and feeling as something separated from the rest, a kind of optical delusion of his consciousness. This delusion is a kind of prison for us, restricting us to our personal desires and to affection for a few persons nearest to us. Our task must be to free ourselves from this prison by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature in its beauty.” – Albert Einstein

You Gotta Feel it to Heal It: Why We Have to Stop Numbing the Pain.

Ick! I believe this is true, but for me it is not natural because bloke the article says my false beliefs about feelings are a long time learned. I know I have benefited when I feel through something, yet my resistance is automatic and challenging to navigate.

Believe me. I've tried. I've tried every other way around it. And I'm here to tell you, there is none. You gotta feel it all to heal it, pass through it and get to the

How Unhealed Childhood Wounds Wreak Havoc in Our Adult Lives - Tiny Buddha

We have beliefs that our subconscious tries to prove true, as we explore these beliefs and understand how we formed them, we can begin to see they are not true and unlearn them.

As children, we come up with strategies for keeping ourselves safe. Applying these strategies as adults can cause drama, distress, and damage.
