Recently I was introduced by a dear friend to Quantum Jumping, a concept developed by Burt Goldman also known as The American Monk. Quantum Jumping is based on the theory that there are an infinite number of universes that exist in parallel to ours and in each universe there is a version of you, a Doppelganger. As there are infinite universes, there are infinite versions of you. When you Quantum Jump you visit that specific ‘twin’ version of you that is already successful at what you want. In that process you will receive advice on how to achieve what you want. This can be in the form of words, inspiration, energy, etc. This might sound all a bit crazy, but let me share my first jumps, so you can decide for yourself if it resonates with you.

I want to share this beautiful poem written by Mawlana Jalal-al-Din Rumi with you:

“I want to see you.

Know your voice.

Recognize you when you
first come ’round the corner.

Sense your scent when I come
into a room you’ve just left.

Know the lift of your heel,
the glide of your foot.

Become familiar with the way
you purse your lips
then let them part,
just the slightest bit,
when I lean in to your space
and kiss you.

I want to know the joy
of how you whisper
“more”

— Mawlana Jalal-al-Din Rumi

With endless love,

Patrick

We live in a time where we more and more connect with people without actually meeting them in person. At least at first. When we ‘meet’ people online we create an image of them inside of us. If we resonate with that person online, we even create a more perfect image of them by focusing on positive aspects of that person complemented by positive aspects we like to see in others. But what happens then is interesting. We give the responsibility to live up to that image to that person, without any form of notification. And that is were it goes wrong. » Read the rest of this entry «

I received a great link from a good friend. I just read it and it resonated with me on a very deep level. Before reading it I did not know who wrote it. And even when reading it I did not know. It’s not that important. What is important is that it touched me in such a very strong way that I wanted to share it with you. Enjoy:

Lately, I have been a prisoner of my own mind. I have been standing eye to eye with my own shadows, but instead of embracing them to give me strength, I have fought them drowning in the emotion of fear. This has been overwhelming to the point of feeling powerless, one of the most negative emotions there is. Or at least that I have experienced. This feeling of captivity triggered me to think about freedom. What is true freedom?
