  • Thank you

    I realize that you are left leaning, however thank you for showing compassion re Charlie Kirk’s murder. I am a Christian conservative and have never felt or expressed joy when someone I disagree with has experienced hardship, injury or death. Instead of love, sadly our Nation is in very short supply of empathy towards our neighbors. BTW, I appreciate your acting including in Dark Winds, keep it up sir.

    Unfollowing after Rainn called a racists and sexist person ‘courageous’. It’s sad that his spiritualism is clearly fake and at his core he still upholds white supremacy. Boooo

Finding God Within: Sri M Explores Consciousness
Q: What advice would you give to people out there that are working in a Starbucks or a Walmart or a school or a construction company somewhere and are seeking to bring spiritual insight and a journey into a very difficult life?
These are the people who need you. If you have some spiritual experience and if you have lived in this world and worked also, then these are the people who need you.

Q: How do you help people unpack that in a therapy session? If you see these different ways they're in denial?
I see clients resist responsibility all the time. Sometimes it's about the dumbest things. It's really self-deceit in terms of how they showed up. I try to shift the focus on their current actions and what they can control rather than solely on their past.
