The Humane Spectrum
by Ernie L Vecchio
Humbly sitting and assisting others in healing from severe trauma, I have spent my career understanding the human psyche and its response to suffering. My clients say: “It is sad that we have to sever a spinal cord or be amputated to care where we land on the Humane Spectrum!” Today, https://www.intentional-evolution.org/ offers evidence that our shared inner journeys have a common theme: everyone experiences division. I am suggesting that people have to heal their inner division before repair appears in the culture. Then, and only then, can we connect, be empathetic, and have a reciprocal relationship with ourselves and others. Tune in and listen to discussions around my teachings.

Camino Del Alma Minute
Intuitively, it certainly seems like a contemplative life in stressful times is a good thing. But, like any practice, it takes a certain level of commitment and is, of course, a process. Many would argue that there is no panacea or a “one size fits all” which I would agree. But, in my experience...
