Facing Up
The simple shift that helps hurting people find meaningful, authentic existence.
Try the breathing exercise
In a hard Place?

That’s good.
It doesn’t feel good. Believe me. I know.
But the darkness is a door.
When you face life honestly, meaningful, authentic existence is possible.
Wonder replaces fear.
Gratitude drives out despair.
Compassion releases you from anger.
Meaningful, authentic existence
Facing Up is not the answer to life’s big questions.
It is a way to live without them.
There’s nothing to believe.
No religion or gurus.
IT’S JUST YOU
Listening to yourself. Trusting yourself.
Forgiving yourself.
Loving your life

Try the free breathing exercise. It only takes 5 minutes.
Facing Up
I’m falling through the air,
From who knows whence to who knows where?
I find the songs that to me matter,
And sing ’em ’til the day I splatter.
I’d love to harmonize with you,
Play music ’til the day is through.
My life is such a wondrous cup,
Why not drink it facing up?
