Nina Amir's Thoughts on Human Potential, Personal Growth and Practical Spirituality
Many of us get stuck in the past. By that I mean we end up living our life looking backward at things that happened in our lives and regretting them. Some call this “looking in the rear view mirror.” I call it living life looking backward. Here’s the thing: No matter what bad thing happened [...]
Over and over again we hear how we must connect our thoughts and feelings to create what we want. Even more important is simply to feel good. Lately I’ve been having a hard time getting to that feel-good place. Then I watched this video of the Black Eyed Peas singing “I Gotta Feeling” at the [...]
This morning I happened to take the time to click on Jeff Herring’s SUNDAY MORNING INSPIRATION: It’s the journey, not the destination. I was so pleased to watch this great clip from the movie “The Way of the Peaceful Warrior,” which is also one of my favorite books by Dan Millman. I found this a [...]
My husband and I were discussing how we react to things that happen in our lives. We have very different approaches to what could be seen as “irritations” that occur. I tend to take what I call a more “spiritual” approach; he tend to take what I call a more “reactive” approach. I’m not saying [...]

I had heard that Santa Cruz, just 20 minutes from where I live–had born [...]
I often consider and write about the idea of living in the moment. I know it’s not just a concept; it’s a worthy goal and one some people achieve. I have found it difficult to do so, although it remains one of my goals. Quieting my mind during meditation also remains one of my goals, [...]
Do you feel like you have lost your mojo? Do you no longer have that special something that makes you glow, feel electric, energized, happy, turned on, and in the flow? Is your magic gone? I’ve been feeling like that for a while now. As I spoke to a friend she mentioned that she thought [...]
On Friday I took a walk in a nearby Christmas tree farm. Many people who live near to me walk there. It’s quite beautiful. I walked in the morning because in the afternoon the tree farm would be filled with people buying trees–or rather cutting down trees. As I walked I looked at the trees. [...]
Not long ago I wrote a post in which I asked what people do to make themselves happy. I also publish many of my posts at VibrantNation.com, and there I received a comment from someone struggling with HOW to be happy. The woman’s daughter was struggling with a difficult situation. With Thanksgiving and the holiday [...]
