Reaction, Re - Action, And Knowledge

In previous Lives, we have talked about Being Space. What do we mean with this? How can I be more space than my body is? Let's explore it.

12-21-21 What Does Being Space Mean

In the last week of 2021 we look ahead to what could be in 2022; what could be for each one of us, the world, the earth/nature?

12-28-21 Creating Future

When we begin something new, there is an intensity present. At the beginning of the year, we are having a look at this.

With everything that swirls around us on the outside and within us, how can we have ease so life becomes a dance.

What are the effects of belief systems? Are there some beliefs we hold onto because they are convenient? Let's explore this.

The world seems to be falling apart which creates chaos. What if we, instead of going into a fear response, can go inside and find what gifts we have that we can contribute to the world?

E22 Is Imperfection Ok?

How many definitions do we have? And are we even aware of them?
The sad part is that we can’t perceive possibilities if we have these definitions. Our mind will allow only what fits the definition, everything else does not exist.  So let's explore this.

E52 Loosing Definitions Or Holding Them Ligthly

One thing I have noticed in my work with people is, that most do not have a full understanding of what judgment really is. It is so prevalent and has such an impact on our world. It is amazing how much we have accepted the need for judgment to navigate in our lives. What if we can change things with more awareness? Let’s explore where judgment is present.

E80 The Ageless Power of tyle

We have a standard way of dealing with grief - move through the stages. What if that way does not work for everyone? Are we willing to look for other possible ways and explore what works? Stephen Berkley has come across one and did exactly that.

Stephen Z. Berkley,  Writer/Director/Producer
While Stephen has worked in multiple capacities inside the media industry for over thirty years, Life With Ghosts is his first fully self-produced feature film. The story idea came with the death of Stephen’s father, when shortly afterwards, his mother began reporting interactions with whom she believed to be Dad's ghost — a real-life Mrs. Muir situation. Which naturally begged the question: Are ghosts a real phenomenon or are they merely symptomatic of profound grief? Life With Ghosts is the culmination of a seven-year investigation into the nature of love, loss and after-death communication and features three survivors' quests for answers.

E87 Shaping vs Programming

We are living in a time of global transition, and the world is longing for elders again. 'The Elder Within' podcast is a space to remember what elderhood truly is — not age, not authority, and not a single way of being. Elderhood arises uniquely through each person, shaped by the life that has lived them.

Hosted by Corinna Stoeffl, the podcast explores how we navigate change, heal old stories, listen to what is really happening, and rediscover the wisdom already within each of us. It is an invitation to walk through life with clarity, compassion, and presence — and to find YOUR way of becoming an elder.

Why we need elders now

I am a catalyst for change and desire to contribute to creating a kinder and gentler world.
