A Journal of Inner Living
I write for the community of common people — to spread light and knowledge about the practical details of life that go unnoticed and un-nurtured, so that we become aware of ourselves and our surroundings.
What This Journal Stands On
A healthy life begins in the mind. Cultivating and keeping positive thoughts is the quiet discipline behind better psychological and physical well-being.
Growth of the spirit is essential — and worth pursuing more comprehensively than ever. The world is in your hands; all you need is a boundless desire to explore it.
Emotions, habits and thought patterns can be understood, trained and mastered — turning everyday tasks lighter and life measurably happier.

From the Radio Days
For over a decade, a friend and I travelled to far-off places asking how people dealt with life, grew spiritually, and found happiness. Scientists, mystics, novelists and inventors — John Perkins first among them — filled our show with profound knowledge. This journal carries that station's purpose onto the page.
