Spirituality in Business
- As the Paradigm Shifts: U is for Ubiquitous and Universality by Dr. Rosie Kuhn
I love the word ubiquitous. It’s got big energy. It has a quality of being that is bigger than, more expansive and universal in nature. It means everywhere, ever present, all pervading omnipresent, universal. So yes, this does describe that aspect of spirituality in business that I’m wanting to capture – that quality of presence that is always and everywhere: It’s pervasive in grace and glory and - As the Paradigm Shifts: T is for Turbulence by Dr. Rosie Kuhn
As a sailor who crossed the Atlantic Ocean, I could see the changes on the surface of the water that tells us whether we’ll be experiencing turbulence or calm seas. We could see miles off in the distance any sea change that was coming our way. We could prepare appropriately and settle in for any turbulence. - As the Paradigm Shifts: S is for Sacrifice by Dr. Rosie Kuhn
I’m suggesting that maybe what we’ve sacrificed isn’t worth the price. This is a huge spiritual issue for those who have come to believe that financial stability will create happiness. The current global economic circumstances are indicating that, that may be an inaccurate assumption. The wounding that has occurred – that we’ve allowed to occur for the sake of financial viability for many has cost - As the Paradigm Shifts:R is for Resistance by Dr. Rosie Kuhn
My work in corporations brings me face to face with people resisting the very work they are paid to do. I’m stymied by the degree of resistance to do what individuals are hired to do; the lack of collaboration that they agreed to, the lack of leadership and management they were trained to do. People are resisting doing what they’ve come here to do. I find that fascinating! - As the Paradigm Shifts: Q is for Question Reality by Dr. Rosie Kuhn
I read on the back of a car many years ago a bumper sticker that read “Question Reality!” Up until that time my life had been a mish mash of confusing circumstances, and it was a revelatory experience to take these two words deeply into my soul. I breathed deeply and felt as though I’d been given a sign that there was light at the end of the tunnel.
At this same time, the context of my life did - As the Paradigm Shifts: P is for Power by Dr. Rosie Kuhn
In my first book, Self-Empowerment 101, I devote the first chapter solely to the subject of power. The reason is that through power and the energy that generates power, every event since the Big Bang is a result of that power. Regardless of how power is used – whether in alignment with evil or good intentions, to look small and helpless or to be a superpower, all is generated from the same source. - As the Paradigm Shifts: O is for Obligation by Dr. Rosie Kuhn
All religious institution require obligations. It’s not just religious institutions but family, community, government, economic – all organizations require some form and level of obligation. How we respond to these obligations generates the quality of life we live, as well as the stress and dis-ease that is so prevalent in our culture. - As the Paradigm Shifts: N is for Noticing by Dr. Rosie Kuhn
There’s two ways one can respond when considering this unfoldment of the Universe. We either allow ourselves to be scared out of our wits and bury our heads in the sand, or we watch the extraordinary evolution of our time with fascination and curiosity - As the Paradigm Shifts: M is for Money and Mindfulness by Dr. Rosie Kuhn
We have no idea the degree to which our personal power can transform the world. To mindfully engage at work with integrity and a compassionate heart – you will move mountains. - As the Paradigm Shifts: L is for Loneliness by Dr. Rosie Kuhn
You probably thought that since we are talking about spirituality in business that love would be the L word for this week. No. Everything we’ve discussed and much of what we will be discussing engages and exercises the muscles of love. No need to go there today.
Though we spend hours with our cohorts, colleagues, team members, rarely do we engage in such a way that we feel heard and seen for wh - As The Paradigm Shifts #B: Breakdowns, Breakthroughs. . . . by Dr. Rosie Kuhn
Business, as a context, can look and act as if it could be at the furthest possible reach from spirituality. When I began exploring a career in business coaching I was initially turned off by all of the thoughts, interpretations and judgments I’d been carrying regarding business. Eventually I realized that what’s true about business is based on one’s interpretation – Business is in the eye of the - As the Paradigm Shifts: K is for creating profitability with KINDNESS by Dr. Rosie Kuhn
Can a business create profitability based on kindness? Sure, why not?
The Dali Lama says if nothing else practice kindness. This must be a very powerful practice, so just what does it entail? - An Easter Message by Al Spinks
Click the following title to view video: An Easter Message
During this Easter Season, I would like to share my reflections on the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus. I know that He was born into this world, experienced both good times and tough times, separated Himself from others in order to pray as well as felt physical and emotional pain.
He said that He came so that we can learn how - Belief, Faith, Sight - Part 2 (VLOG) - Is Your Faith Misplaced? by Al Spinks

- As the Paradigm Shifts: J is for Judgment by Dr. Rosie Kuhn
In your work environment, suspending judgments begins by flexing muscles that cultivate conscious choice-making regarding who you be and how you be in whatever role you play. - As the Paradigm Shifts: I is for Integrity, Intention and Inspiration by Dr. Rosie Kuhn
On all levels of being, from the current circumstances to the domain of Universal Oneness, we have specific intentions. Without these we would not survive for we would lack even the desire to hope or want life itself. To see inspiration, intention and integrity as tools we can effectively change our relationship to that which generates the unfolding of life itself. As the paradigm shifts, each of - As the Paradigm Shifts: I is for Inspiration, Intention and Integrity by Dr. Rosie Kuhn

Charlie and the (Dark Side of the) Chocolate Factory
I belong to the online community Linkedin, a website for business people seeking to connect with one another to grow their businesses. Within this community are discussion groups like-minded members can join. Members post questions and spark interesting dialogues. One in particular caught my eye: “If you knew this was your last day on Earth, - As the Paradigm Shifts: G is for Greed, Gain and Generosity by Dr. Rosie Kuhn
As the paradigm shifts, we are so much more capable of witnessing our attachments to our gains, our fear of losing what we’ve gained and of finding that through some playful curiosity we can discover other ways to gain without fear of losing what we’ve gained. - As the Paradigm Shifts: F is for Fear by Dr. Rosie Kuhn
As long as we are in this game of focusing on maintaining what we’ve gained, avoiding loss of any sort, and ignoring the choice-making process that keeps us playing the same strategies over and over again, winning will never be the outcome. It isn’t even a possibility because we’ve limited our capacity to think beyond the fear-based paradigm. Again, Einstein’s words come to mind; we can’t solve pr

Spirituality in Business
To state the obvious, there’s no question we are living in turbulent times. The winds of change are creating upheaval and instability, leaving chaos and confusion in its wake. The almighty dollar upon which we’ve built just about all of our institutions, including religion, as well as a sense of security and stability is rocking and rolling like those areas around the planet that are experi...

As the Paradigm Shifts: S is for Sacrifice
Dr. Rosie Kuhn posted in:
Spirituality in Business
I grew up in Michigan in a large Catholic Family in the 50’s and 60’s. I was taught that sacrifice was the price you paid to get into heaven. In service to this I let go of my wants, needs, thoughts and feelings. What I was left with when I hit my 30’s was pretty much an empty shell of a being and became, to some extent robotic – exclusively looking outside myself for commands for me to...

m experiencing resistance to writing this blog. I feel angry, frustrated and distracted by, well … It’s more that I’m allowing myself to get distracted; that way I can avoid being with what I don’t want to be with.
You might be asking – as I would, if I were you, why I’m resisting writing if I’m in the business of writing .
Even though I enjoy writing, it’s c...

Spirituality in Business
One evening as I was laying in bed, preparing for a restful night of slumber, a voice from inside my head said: “I want to live my own life?” I was shocked with this outburst as I am one of the most independent individuals I know; I live a thousand miles away from my husband, on a secluded island off the coast of Washington; I work independently and live happily in my very solitar...

As the Paradigm Shifts: N is for Noticing
Dr. Rosie Kuhn posted in:
Spirituality in Business
Noticing is the most powerful tool for cultivating awareness and for bringing valuable spiritual concepts to the workplace. Most importantly though, is having the intention to notice, in order to notice whether you are noticing or not.
Notice, for a moment, what is occurring within your work environment. Notice the lighting, the sounds, the smells and what the space looks like to you....

Money
Money is very much a spiritual issue. Some think that the pursuit of wealth couldn’t possibly be a path to enlightenment or spiritual serenity. We never know what our path will look like, what’s in store for us, or where our greatest learning opportunities will lay, awaiting our arrival so they can ambush us when we least expect it.
It’s not money pe...
