Transformational Teachings from Counselor Jane Ilene Cohen

I’m always sacrificing my own welfare for the benefit of my husband and my parents, in order to make them happy.

This new paradigm about faith is more empowered. It is having the faith to look at what’s true, and then you experience what is actually there.

It’s just a huge burden. And if the man doesn’t do those things a man is supposed to do, he’s not considered a man, and he doesn’t feel good about himself.

It’s not true that those with the most physical power are the most powerful, because if it were true, the big woolly mammoth would be in control.

“…It’s called mid-life crisis when a person realizes that this whole construct they’ve devoted their life to is meaningless, and has nothing to do with reality….”

“…in order to facilitate the level of reframe necessary for significant change it’s necessary to hold in place a consistent spiritual knowing about the positive nature of life…”

“…It’s a dynamic paradigm of reality that is being held in place here. And as each person in the group moves forward, they’re participating on higher and higher levels, at holding it in place…”

“…Career is an old concept and old paradigm. It’s a particular kind of old business model, in which you have to fit into a certain structure that someone or some group has set up…”

“The issue here is whether trying to manipulate truth works better than truth. Following truth takes radical faith in life, in truth, in things working to the best and highest interest for everyone concerned…”

“And as you are standing in the truth of what the situation is and what really needs to be done, the more you will be listened to. And then your job is to help guide your child to be connected to reality and truth as well, so that they, also, can see what needs to be done and so they’re not just being told what to do by a parent authority.”
