About Me	I'm a retired psychologist, wellness consultant, and internet marketer living in the wilds of northern Minnesota. I share this idyllic retirement abode with my wife, Mildred, three of our grandkids, a dog and a cat--along with diverse wildlife. I've spent most of my adult life helping others become more successful in life and this continues to be a key part of my main life mission. Spiritual development is a primary pursuit for me. I've practiced mindfulness meditation for over 30 years and was a pioneer in introducing mindfulness-based stress reduction in Minnesota a dozen years ago. For me, the entire universe is a seamless unity, unfolding endlessly in ever-changing forms. Each of us, is an impermanent wave on this great ocean. All supposed "things" are verbs, not nouns. All "selves" are comprised entirely by non-self elements. Separateness is completely illusory. My over-riding aim is to awaken--and stay awake--as fully as possible to this Reality and to live in accordance with it. With this View, helping others and oneself are one and the same.
