Transformational Teachings from Counselor Jane Ilene Cohen

Our whole organism is a very fine-tuned, living instrument that has many means for taking in information, and is highly responsive.

The real danger is not the physical action someone might take that would be harmful to us, but it is the distorting of reality that is transferred, like a computer virus hidden within a Trojan horse.

…it only becomes a matter of whose truth is better when there’s an avoidance of truth.

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.

…if everybody stays in the present moment with where they are at, and allowing themselves to be connected with or affected by what happens, the whole process goes deeper

…the defense system is holding in place an impossibility. It is hiding the gold that is the person. It’s keeping people away from loving you.

“…when you really are in your experience and you’re doing what really benefits you, and you don’t have the wall up — all of a sudden your vision opens up and you see that this is actually good for everyone…”

“…We’re talking about really being true to yourself, which means you honor your real emotions, which is the only way a relationship could possibly work in the first place. …”

“…the whole idea in the group is to let the real stuff come up and then explore it deeper and deeper until we get to the truth underneath it…”

“A leader is a person who is accessing reality from their own experience and expressing that. He or she has a fix on reality in a way that others don’t. They have a very strong knowing that something is very important and must be said and is really true. And the truth of it causes people to recognize it. When someone speaks truth you know it, whether or not you’re willing to listen to it, or have a trigger against it. But truth rings true. It has a big effect. And the fact that leaders are connected to truth, makes them leaders.”
