KAREN JOHNSON
The Jeweled Path Karen Johnson is a longtime colleague of A. H. Almaas and cofounder of the Diamond Approach. They have been teaching together for many years. Johnson was educated as an artist and then received an MA in psychology.
What is the meaning of having a spiritual life in the midst of a busy world? he Jeweled Path invites you to enter into the story of how the modern spiritual path of the Diamond Approach emerged. With humor and intimacy, Karen Johnson, cofounder with A. H. Almaas, reveals the personal experiences that birthed the teaching and furthered its development.
These profound awakenings —occurring amidst ordinary life—became the building blocks of a remarkable new approach to human nature and to our understanding of reality.
OMTimes: What is the Diamond Approach? How is it different from other spiritual traditions? KAREN JOHNSON: It is hard to answer this question without getting too esoteric. This was one reason I wrote the book; I wanted to make this work more accessible and understandable by describing the inner feeling of it. Otherwise, I have to put ideas and perspectives that are hard to capture in a nutshell, but I will try. The Diamond Approach is a contemporary spiritual path that can lead to liberation, maturation, and actualization of the Human Being. The name itself is a description of what it is—a direct, precise, clear approach to one’s experience. Understanding any experience fully will naturally lead to the understanding of our True Spiritual Nature, like a stream that naturally flows into the ocean. I think we might be the only teaching that uses the term True Nature. We mean the natural underlying essential basis of what we are and what everything is. This is one way we are unique, but it’s not the most important one.
"The Diamond Approach teaching includes how to be an embodied presence in the world." Trying to enumerate all how the Diamond Approach is different are too many to list. That is another reason I wrote the book. I can name a few unique features of our work that are important: The True Nature of everything and being an individual in the world authentically are valued equally. Most traditions value the transcendent state over the individual or visa versa. From the DA point of view, you learn how these two inextricable sides are each real, of great value, and totally interdependent. The Diamond Approach teaching includes how to be an embodied presence in the world. The spiritual presence that one recognizes as one’s self can arise as qualities that the usual person in the world can recognize such as strength, clarity, joy, tenderness, willpower, and love among others.
The Diamond Approach uses psychological knowledge to aid us in These are distinctive understanding the understandings of the development of the ego Diamond Approach and help us navigate teaching. They are all through the layers of it, expressions of the truth of which is crucial to the our nature and cleansed of development of a real our personal histories. human being in the world. OMTIMES
However, it is not therapeutic; it is simply what we encounter on the way in. Through understanding what we find—whatever it is—we become more transparent to our inner light. It is like taking off old clothes we don’t even know we are wearing because we have been wearing them so long we think they are part of us. Then we discover beautiful jewels that have been hidden underneath.
4 Natural Supplements to Lose Weight and Trim up Your Physique By Rachelle Wilber There are many options for individuals to use as aids to lose excess weight. One safe alternative to aid in the battle against the bulge is the utilization of natural supplements. The following is a quick review of four of the safest and most effective natural supplement alternatives. Garcinia Cambogia Garcinia Cambogia exploded with popularity after being featured on a 2012 episode of the Dr. Oz show. The smallish green, pumpkin shaped fruit contains a chemical known as a hydroxycitric acid in its skin that is responsible for its weight-loss instigating properties. HCA has shown the ability to inhibit enzymes that produce fat and elevate serotonin levels. A 2011 review took into account 12 clinical studies done on the weight loss benefits of Garcinia Cambogia determined that the supplement was responsible for Omtimes.com
modest weight loss progress. Green Coffee Bean Extract Green coffee beans are coffee beans that have not undergone the roasting process. Caffeine, which increases the burning of fat, and chlorogenic acid, which inhibits the breakdown of carbohydrates are believed to be the source of the bean’s weight loss properties. The weight loss benefits of green coffee beans have been proven by several clinical studies. The bean is also suspected to help with both blood pressure and blood sugar levels. This can be very helpful in many different ways. Using coffee in its natural form can be highly advantageous for weight loss, which many people still do not understand. It is not just to help wake you up in the morning. Essential Oils Essential oils can be used to provide balance and harmony to the mind and body. When an essential oil is inhaled parts of the brain are stimulated that regulates mood and emotional stability. Researchers at the Smell and Taste Institute of Chicago found that inhaling aromas from substances such as peppermint, grapefruit, orange, and others periodically
throughout the day can suppress the desire to eat. The researchers also determined that switching oils regularly will prevent the individual from getting used to a particular aroma and diminishing its effectiveness. This is the power of essential oils, they can literally help you lose weight by managing your cravings. Everyone should take advantage of their helpful properties. Green Tea Extract Green tea extract is a popular weight loss supplement and many studies attest to its effectiveness. The active ingredient for weight loss is the antioxidant EGCG. It is believed that green tea extract works by increasing the activity levels of norepinephrine, a fat burning hormone. Multiple clinical studies have demonstrated the ability of green tea to promote fat loss, especially in the stomach region. Green tea has so many uses, it is an incredibly amazing substance. Natural supplements provide a safe and effective aid for individuals wishing to lose excess body weight and trim their physique. The four supplements above have been proven clinically to be among the best choices available. Omtimes.com
Overwhelmed? Create a Battle Plan to Conquer Daily Stress By Liesha Petrovich
Sometimes stress hits us like a sucker punch to the gut. And sometimes it creeps up on us. We may not be able to stop stressful emergencies from

happening, but there’s a lot we can do about the stress that wears us down daily. Many of us have the same stress repeatedly. And we now just accept it. Our kids “forgot” to do their chores Our house is a mess, and our mother-in-law is coming over for dinner Our boss keeps nixing all our ideas One of these stresses is easy to handle. Experience them all on the same day and its stress overload. But expecting to have stress-free days isn’t realistic. Sometimes life just happens. The key is to find ways to be prepared for your daily dose of annoying stress. Think of it as your battle plan. And instead of waiting for stress to happen, you’re going to tackle it head-on.
Step Up Your Meditation Game Meditation is like brushing your teeth - do it every day because it’s good for you. There are plenty of apps that allow us to meditate during our lunch breaks or while sitting at our kid’s soccer practice. It’s a matter of making it a priority instead of a luxury. To help build a stronger practice, try incorporating elements into your daily meditation-like crystals or essential oils. In Choosing Healing Crystals for Anxiety, Ella Gibbons shares how a stone’s energy is more important than color: “The right crystal will call to you. That sounds a bit like new-age nonsense, but it’s true. Your goal isn’t to try to figure out why it’s calling to you, just that it feels right.” Do some experimenting and

Agape Love and Spirituality by Carl Greer, PhD, PsyD
Can you imagine a God who is compassionate and forgiving to all, a Spirit possessing the quality of agape love, the love for all beings? Can you imagine this agape love as central to your own spirituality?
Omtimes.com
Many of us long to know and connect with Spirit. When we do, we can experience a connection to Spirit in our personal energy field as a sensation or as an inner knowing that we are united with a loving and powerful force. Some say that through prayer, reflecting about the nature of God, or meditating on love or a loving Higher Power, they experience a sense of unity, peace, and love. Some might describe the feeling of love and joy experienced while serving others, or while just playing with grandkids or listening to a moving music performance, as a connection with Spirit, the loving and creative force. I can understand this characterization as I have felt that way, too. Also, through some of my shamanic work, I’ve had the direct experience of a creative universal eternal energy. My encounters have convinced me that Spirit’s love for us is real and that Spirit can infuse us with agape love. When I experience a spiritual connection to Source, a sense of agape love fills me: I want to give to others. I yearn to
express this love. Maybe you have experienced this sense of abundance and desire to send love outward to the world, too. Yet maybe you worry about your financial and emotional resources, and struggle to find the time and impetus to give to others. How much to give, and how much to invest in themselves, is not always easy to figure out. A conversation with Spirit might help you find the answers, and lead to abundance coming your way from an unexpected source. Some might call this karma for doing good works. Perhaps it is simply how energy with the quality of love moves through the matrix of energy that underlies our world. I believe it is an expression of ayni, or reciprocity. I believes Spirit works with us to help us experience agape love so that we let it move through us and outward to others. I’ve seen people who experience very real scarcity who understandably can be very cautious about husbanding their financial resources. At times, they can feel burned out by the burdens Omtimes.com
“Are The Dead Really With Us?” By John Holland
I’m so honored and grateful for the feedback I’ve been receiving about my latest book: “Bridging Two Realms – Learn To Communicate With Your Loved Ones On The Other-Side.”
Omtimes.com
While writing this book, emotions were running high for me as I wrote about some very personal experiences that are extremely close to my heart, which of course brought them to the surface, and I relived some of them again through my writing. I’m so glad that I kept it personal because many people are already contacting me saying how it has helped them cope with a loss of someone that was close to them. This is the main reason I decided to write this book, principally to help those who are missing or grieving for a loved one. The following paragraphs are a small excerpt from the book that I wanted to share, and I hope it helps you or someone you know at this time, who is
dealing with the loss of their loved one. Excerpt from Bridging Two Worlds When someone passes and leaves this world, the usual familiar ways we use to communicate, get interrupted for a time until a new form of communication is established. That new form of communication happens through the mind. With mediums who work mentally, the spirit of a loved one will link with the medium in a mind-to-mind telepathic connection. Once the link is established, the medium will receive information clairvoyantly, clairsentiently, or clairaudiently. The words, images, or feelings that are given from the spirit to the

5 Reasons Why Black Cats Are Ideal Pets By Cathedral of the Soul
The Fur Color in animals, while not defining the personality of the cat, may be related to some behavioral characteristics of the animal. In the case of black cats, these cats are friendlier and more sociable than cats of other colors, according Omtimes.com
to animal expert and author Temple Grandin. Black cats tend to live better in groups. Similarly, they are more peaceful, which makes them ideal candidates for coexistence in urban environments. It is
worth noting that in addition to these characteristics, the personality of each individual animal determines the degree of sociability and their level of aggressiveness. History of Black Cats There has not always been this silly tradition of bad luck associated with black cats, but the reality is quite the opposite. They have always been considered sacred animals. In Ancient Egypt, it was believed that black cats possessed divine qualities and, therefore, were related to the cult of Bastet, the goddess of fertility. At other times in history, the belief was that a newly married couple who saw a black cat had ensured prosperity in their married life.
related to witchcraft. Luckily, these days, this black cat image has already been modified, and people just notice the incredible beauty and temperament of these beautiful cats. Characteristics of black cats Leaving aside the absurdities of the superstitions, when we see a black cat we cannot help but contemplate their impressive charm and elegance. They are very affectionate and grateful to their owners, perhaps because they have been so mistreated over time. People who own black cats can give testimonies of how affectionate they are with their owners and with other animals. They like to sleep in bed with their owners.
The sailors also believed that if they took a black cat on board during their journeys, they would give them good luck.
Without a doubt, it’s the most intuitive type of cats out there. They are sure that they will not do you any harm, they are very loving and tender.
However, these considerations regarding the magical powers of black cats changed in the Middle Ages, where they became unfairly

SUPER EASY RECIPES

The Art of Pot Rice Today I am going to show you how to make 2 easy vegan instant pot dinners! First a vegan mushroom risotto and secondly an easy homemade Spanish rice recipe. I am obsessed with my new Instant Pot and if you got one for Christmas I am sure you are too! The Instant Pot is a 7-in-1 multi-functional cooker that does the job of multiple appliances and is designed to replace your slow cooker, rice cooker, pressure cooker, Dutch oven, and more.
MAKE YOUR OWN This decadent mushroom risotto tastes like it was cooked the traditional slow and painful way, but it wasn’t! Thanks to Instant Pot! It tastes like someone sat there and stirred the rice for 25 mins, but no one actually had to. This dish can set well on its own as a main, but also make a gorgeous side dish. It is a most delicious variation on the basic risotto recipe with some soy sauce and white miso to really bring out those umami flavors. I used a recipe I’ve had my eye on for years… I forget what website it was from though… and adapted it to fit my vegan eating requirements. I hope you love these recipes as much as we do.
10 Steps Toward an Incredible Edible Town By Julian Dobson Six years ago, a woman in a small town called Todmorden, at the back end of a Yorkshire valley in the north of England, dug up her prize rose garden. She planted vegetables, knocked down the garden wall, and put up a sign saying, “Help Yourself.” Today, Incredible Edible Todmorden has changed that town. There are herb tubs at the railway station, raised beds at the police station. The canal towpath is lined with edible plantings. Outside the health center, patients can pick healthy fruit and medicinal plants. But that’s not all. There are now 50 Incredible Edible groups across the UK and around 300 in France. More are popping up all the time, from Montreal to Mali. People worldwide are making connections and changing the way they think about food. So how can your town become Incredible Edible? Here are some steps you could take: Omtimes.com
1. Start with what you have, not what you haven’t. Cities and neighborhoods around the world face similar problems. People struggle to find work, look after the kids, pay the bills. But they have enormous energy and resources of friends, families, skills, and connections. The cornerstone of an Incredible Edible town is its people. 2. Don’t write a strategy document. There isn’t a blueprint or a magic formula, other than to get stuck in. Start first and apply for funds later. The money should be the servant of the project, not the other way around. Incredible Edible Todmorden has attracted plenty of grant money, including half a million pounds to build a cutting-edge aquaponics center in the grounds of the town’s high school. But the vision and the action came first. 3. Don’t wait for permission. As Incredible Edible Todmorden co-founder Pam Warhurst says, it takes too long, and you’re improving the place anyway. In Todmorden, there was a derelict health center where Britain’s most
prolific serial killer, Dr. Harold Shipman, once practiced. A place people used to avoid was planted with beans and brassicas and became productive and useful. Groups around the world are now creating edible towns, edible campuses, even an Edible Bus Stop. If you’re not sure how to start, find one of them and ask how they did it. And if you run into opposition, take the advice of Todmorden’s Nick Green: “Smother your enemies with love.” 4. Make it easy. In Todmorden, they have a motto: If you eat, you’re in. If your project is only for sandal-wearing vegans who hand-knit their clothes from home-grown hemp, you might not have many backers. Incredible Edible projects attract people from all political and religious persuasions, professions, and social backgrounds. There’s a serious message about fixing a broken food system and helping people to take control of their own futures in a way that sustains the planet now and for our children. But you don’t need to pile political baggage on top before anyone can join in. Make it Omtimes.com
It’s Time to Stop Being So Nice at Work By Marcia Sirota, MD.
Have you been trying to be a really nice person at work? Have you been noticing that your attempts have been backfiring? You might want to consider the possibility that instead of being so nice, you should work on trying to be kind, and that this subtle shift will make the Omtimes.com
difference between workplace struggles and workplace success. The way I understand it, there’s a meaningful distinction between being kind and being nice; with the former being a successful interpersonal style at work and the latter being much more problematic. People are kind and compassionate when they’re confident and comfortable with who they are. Having good self-esteem, they’re not overly preoccupied with how others see them. An overly nice person, on the other hand, often feels more insecure, and seeks the approval and validation of others. This type of person tries to please others so that they can feel good about themselves. Very nice people bend over backward to oblige. They deal with potential conflicts in the workplace by doing more for the other person because they can’t bear to have anyone upset with them. Kind people still expect to be treated with respect at work.
They assert themselves when necessary and avoid conflicts by choosing not to engage with the troublesome individuals in their workplace. They’re helpful to others but set appropriate limits on how much they’ll do. Overly nice people are often mistreated or taken advantage of in the workplace. They’re the ones who do the lion’s share of the work -- the ones who come in early, stay late and compensate for the slackers. The overly nice person focuses on doing for others, to the detriment of their own needs. They rarely, if ever, ask for what they want, for fear of creating conflict. Sadly, their need for approval makes them look weak in the eyes of their colleagues. As a result, they’re more likely to be disrespected, exploited, even bullied. They try to please, but more often than not, their efforts are met with contempt. Eventually, the people-pleaser can become resentful at work, especially if their attempts to curry favor are met with disrespect, or worse. There Omtimes.com
I remember reading a story once, which is from Panchatantra stories one of the oldest surviving fables from India. It is an Ancient Indian collection of interrelated animal fables in verse and prose, and the animals depict a ‘personality.’ In one of the stories, a lion goes Omtimes.com
near a well and peeps inside. He finds his reflection in the water, but he did not know that it was his own shadow. Thinking that who else could be as powerful as him, he roared, and the shadow roared back with an echo. His ego felt challenged, he felt bothered, and he was
angry and hence jumped into the water to kill his own shadow and lost his life. Just like this lion, we all meet our own shadows in the form of people and the emotions that we experience with them. Someone who lives is an ordinary consciousness goes through all kinds of feelings like competition, jealousy, envy, joy, love, anger, etc. while being with people in office, home, friends, etc. And reacts like this lion due to the lack of spiritual knowledge because he does not know that everyone is reflecting his own self in percentages, he does not know what is ‘The Law of Resonance.’ Hence the person reacts, fights, and gets involved in the vicious cycle of ignorance. And due to that, just like this lion, feels broken, tired, stressed and sometimes ‘Lifeless.’ What is the secret of the universe that can help one to transcend this inner lion, all other internal animal instincts and one day even the human aspects that are not divine? It is the law of resonance that changes one day, everything for an initiate, the way he perceives himself, the life and the reality
concrete. He becomes able to see and understand his shadow as a reflection of his hidden as well as apparent aspects. He becomes ‘Wise’! The Law of Resonance explains that we always attract what we are regarding memories, both positively and negatively. Understanding this law is essential for us to be able to accept that in an assault or aggressive situation, we are as much the aggressor as the victim, we are both the person who aggresses and attacks others as we are the person (or people) attacked. Understanding the Law of resonance in dreams as well as in concrete reality is fundamental for the correct interpretation of dreams and signs. However, since we only know an infinitesimal percentage of ourselves, we don’t realize the resonance we have with a person or situation that attracts or bothers us. That is why it is important not to identify 100% with the negativity that we experience – disturbances, ordeals, difficulties, etc. – but always remind ourselves that we also have beautiful qualities and potentiality. Nevertheless, we Omtimes.com

culture and these 4 words alone are not going to turn you into an all-powerful, infallible manifestor. BUT I have found that these 4 words have immediately shifted the flow of my manifesting to create a more open path. These 4 words affirm our commitment. Our vision. Our resolution. They tell the Universe, “here I am.” So, what are they?
IM READY TO RECEIVE. That’s it. I’m reading to receive. With these words, we declare that we are ready to be receptive to that which we desire. We create pathways in the brain that direct it to look for evidence that we are ready to receive. Evidence that there is something around us, in our environment, and within us, to receive. Why are these 4 words so incredibly effective for opening the path? Because simply put our biggest block is not the lack of what we want. It’s not that we are unworthy
of what we want (though we very well could be blocking ourselves on this front too). It’s not even that there is a karmic reason for why you haven’t received what you want. IT’S BECAUSE WE ARE THE BIGGEST BLOCK TO RECEIVING WHAT WE WANT. See we all come with a heavily ingrained perception. This perception serves as code for our brains. We create the code of our perception, “upload” this code to our brains, and thus our brains are given the commands through which it functions This wouldn’t be an issue if our codes were not so often riddled with blocks, lack of receptivity and beliefs that are untrue if not devilishly damaging to our sense of wellbeing. In truth for so many of us, the code we’ve uploaded to our brains is horrifically root in limitation and lack. Therefore, our brains, which are operating via a system of limitation and lack, process

SOW THE SEEDS OF A HIGHER AND HAPPIER LIFE By Guy Finley
If we are ever to realize the integrity and consistent kindness of our True Nature, if we long to know something of heaven while we live on earth, then we must sow the seeds that bring that higher life into fruition. One cannot expect to reap what one does not sow; and merely hoping for a higher life is not sowing true spiritual seeds, any more than climbing an imagined mountain is the Omtimes.com
same as reaching its top. To sow spiritual seeds means that we do spiritual work. Spiritual work is always interior work first, even if, as a matter of course, this work becomes manifest through exterior action. What is this interior work by which we sow the seeds of the celestial within us? Following are four ways to sow the seeds of a higher and happier life.
1. We must work to not burden others or ourselves with past regrets, disappointments, or fearful future visions, even as we learn to ask truth for more insight into those unseen aspects of our present nature that are reaping their regrets even as they sow more of the same dark seeds.
directly in the eye, and instead of seeing what is impossible according to their view of life, sow the seeds of a new self by daring to doubt their dark view of things. Our refusal to identify with self-limiting negative states reaps us the reward of rising above their inherent limitations.
2. We must learn to sit quietly with ourselves and wait patiently for the light of peace to replace those dark, noisy thoughts and feelings telling us that we have too much old baggage to finish our spiritual journey. Each time we sow these seeds through some quiet meditation, we reap the strength that comes from realizing that this silence that comes to us is our true home.
If we wish a life that is whole and loving, one that is filled with new light, then we must sow these eternal seeds within ourselves; that is our work. Make your own list of ways to work at sowing the seeds of the higher life. Set your self to the task of being an inwardly awake person and watch how you begin to reap the awareness that makes all things possible.
3. We must deliberately remember our intention to start our whole life over every moment we awaken to find ourselves reliving some past conflict. To cultivate this refreshed outlook, born of remembering that our true life is always new in the Now, is to let go of who we have been and to begin reaping a life free of anger and fear.
(Excerpted from Let Go and Live in the Now, Red Wheel Weiser, 2004)
4. We must learn to look our fears, weariness, and anxiety

14 ways Natural Disasters Reframes our Ability to Change Embracing Natural Disaster As A Path To Shifting Our Continuity By Crystal Presence
Honoring nature while also doing our best to make sense of why we go through natural disasters. Acknowledging the ability to choose how we respond in times of crisis. Reframing and embracing natural disaster
Omtimes.com
as part of the shifting continuity, consciousness, and ability to bring forth a new context of living. Tips on how to cultivate awareness, safety, wellness and being part of resolution in times of natural disaster.
All Earth’s creatures are nurtured, fed and housed by nature. Nature also delivers times of devastation by floods, volcanos, hurricanes, droughts, and earthquakes. We are in awe and appreciation of nature yet still making sense of why natural disasters happen to us. We respond in various ways including going through stages of physical, emotional and spiritual upheaval. Many people accept these turbulent experiences as random acts of nature, just as how life is. Some wonder if our collective stress, control, and turbulence cause nature to be stressed and turbulent too? Deepak Chopra, the pioneer in integrative medicine and personal transformation, sees nature as linked to everything including our oil consumption, politics, war and global warming. He comments, “If the collective mind is turbulent, then nature is turbulent. We tend to separate ourselves from nature, but we are not. Maybe if we settle down, nature will settle down too.” What if we embrace natural disasters as a way to unravel our denial and shift our continuity? What if disasters
teach us to make choices at point easy rather than at point crisis? Can natural disasters help connect us in bringing forth a new context of whole being wellness for all beings? Natural disasters are often sudden and overwhelming. We can lose ourselves or choose to bring forth the best in ourselves. The following 14 tips can support us in cultivating new levels of being awareness and wellness as a result of natural disaster… 1. Loving ourselves, no matter what the conditions. Accept and embrace the responses we have to whatever is happening inside and on the outside. Deciding to stay connected with ourselves and our source. 2. Staying present while making life-affirming choices. Wise decision-making is often challenging in a time of disaster and its aftermath. Staying present allows us to listen and act on the guidance of our internal guidance system. Staying present can be a lifesaving decision. 3. Moving from the inside out. Letting our bodies move, vibrate and shake! It is amazing Omtimes.com
