If this life / experience is just an illusion, why are we so busy in saving the planet? Also i know of people storing up food for the coming disasters planed by the so called illuminati. By doing this I sense that I am feeding the illusion? I would really like to know.

I have been in a relationship with a man who does not share my religion for almost 13 years. We have been married for 6 of those years and recently had a child together. Now all we do is argue about religion and it is bringing me down. I am seeing that I don’t want this for my child , however I don’t want my child to suffer from a broken home. Any advice?

I have recently started changing my life. I now meditate, do yoga every day and eat healthier. I have already reaped many benefits of changing my routine. I have more energy, I am less stressed and just happier in general but there is one obstacle I can’t seem to overcome – I have troubled getting up in the morning! I used to think it was simply exhaustion that kept me in bed but I’m no longer as near as tired as I used to be and I’m still having trouble. Not getting up on time interferes with my daily routine and meditation practice – please help!

Sometimes when I meditate I experience a band of pressure around my head. It persists after I have stopped my meditation until I go to sleep. Should I be concerned about this? It is not painful, but it is worrisome.

I am a health care practitioner in Chinese medicine. In the last year and a half I have gone through a series of crises, each life challenging and life altering. My mother, who has Alzheimer’s had a major stroke. The same week our family home (my mother’s home-the home I grew up in) was destroyed by a flood and we lost everything. Nothing was saved. My 15 year marriage is ending and I discovered my husband was having an affair. I went to get away and left to relax in Mexico and got in a car accident there. I had a head injury. I will recover, but it left me with concentration problems and short term memory loss. I need to move from my current home and start my life over as I am still in the middle of a very unhealthy situation. I know what I must do, and I want to open my practice in another place. It is the perfect time now that I have no ties and my plan is in place, yet I am frozen! I can hardly concentrate on the tasks at hand. The universe is presenting an amazing opportunity to me yet I am having so much difficulty going forward. I don’t know what to do or the best way to heal. Emotionally and spiritually I am just treading water. It is all so overwhelming and i find myself wasting massive amounts of time and delaying and delaying. What is wrong with me? I would be forever grateful if someone could point me in a more positive direction. Which direction do I go to heal??
