“Who’s Driving This Bus?” Aging Like a Guru – Who Me? with Dr. Rosie Kuhn Podcast #107

Who’s Driving This Bus? Few of us see ourselves as our vehicles – as our cars, for instance. We know we are an individual being who gets into our cars, or buses, to get to where we want to go. If our car has a flat tire, we don’t think “I have a flat tire.” We can separate ourselves from our vehicles. But yet it is so common for most of us to think that we are our bodies. Fascinating! Tune in to hear more about who is driving your “bus.” – – – – For more blogs, books and

“My Life Is Going to Hell In a Hand-basket” Aging Like a Guru – Who Me? With Dr. Rosie Kuhn Podcast #103

 "Many sensations come, many thoughts or images arise, but they are just waves of your own mind. Nothing comes from outside your mind. To realize pure mind in your delusion is practice.

“Welcome to the Show” Aging Like a Guru – Who Me? with Dr. Rosie Kuhn Podcast #100

There is no doubt about it – we are all experiencing aging. And, what it is that creates the experience we are having while we age is our beliefs, our expectations, our judgments and interpretations about aging.

Naturally this point of view could be hotly disputed; but it is surely a consequence of the current, dominant paradigm of "treating mental disorders with pills and

Hedonism in France? Not Us!

After announcing our June 2019 retreat, the "I’m Giving Up Personal Development" Retreat, I wondered if it sounds as though we are all about hedonism. That we would eat, drink, and mindlessly abuse ourselves to within an inch of our lives. This retreat is just the opposite! Our intention is to mindfully allow the direct and full experience of the kindredness of ourselves with all the glory and beauty life has to offer. On a river boat in France. Because beauty and glory. Did You Know? The research of my PhD dissertation, Sailing As a Transformational Experience, revealed that most
