Stress, while a natural part of life, can have serious consequences when left unmanaged. It affects not only our mental health but also our physical well-being, manifesting in ways like fatigue, weakened immunity, and even chronic conditions.

The Possibility of “What Is”

The Possibility of “What Is”

This post isn’t about the hypothetical “what could be.” Instead, it’s about recognizing the profound possibilities of what is. As you read, allow yourself the grace of setting aside judgment—trust me, it’ll surface— just be open to the journey.

When I was a curious child, I spent a few memorable summer days with my father at the historic Boston Courthouse. He was a high-ranking court officer at the Suffolk Superior Court, and I would eagerly tag along a couple of times a week—probably to give my mom a well-deserved break from my seemingly boundless energy and enthusiasm. While there, I’d either sit in various courtrooms listening intently to a range of interesting cases or entertain myself by skateboarding up and down the spacious hallways during lengthy trials. Sometimes, I’d get creative by folding paper helicopters and sending them gliding down the courthouse’s towering stairwells, watching them spiral elegantly in the air. Those were truly simpler and more innocent times, though one unforgettable morning stands out in my memory as a pivotal moment that ultimately changed my life forever.

A Warning Ignored

That fateful day, my father and I were running notably late. Or rather, I single-handedly made us late. He was rushing me along with increasing frustration, muttering that I wasn’t moving fast enough to his liking. In a moment of defiance, I protested loudly, shouting something quite unusual: “We can’t leave now! We absolutely need to be late!” I ranted about “smoke,” but of course, my father didn’t take my words seriously at all. In the chaos of our heated argument, I acted out just enough to delay us by a crucial five minutes.

Eventually, we made our way to the train station, enduring his stern lecture about the importance of punctuality and time management. The train took us to Park Street Station, and from there, we began the short walk to the courthouse. However, as we approached our destination, the scene before us was anything but normal. Sirens blared incessantly, and people were running in all directions as if caught in a panic, while police cars and fire trucks crowded the area like startled roosters.

When we entered through the employee entrance, my father unexpectedly ran into one of his coworkers, Joseph D. “What’s going on?” my father inquired urgently. Joseph replied gravely, his voice low: “There was a bomb explosion near the elevator banks in the new building.”

My father froze in disbelief. “When did this happen?” he asked, his voice rising with urgency.

“Just about five minutes ago,” Joseph answered, a sense of dread hanging in the air.

I’ll never forget the look on my father’s face as he slowly turned to me. It was an unsettling mix of fear and confusion. Fear that we might have unwittingly walked right into mortal danger had we been on time, and confusion at how his 11-year-old son could have possibly known something was going to happen before it actually did.

Unsettling Strength Arrives

This wasn’t the first time my parents were confronted with the unsettling idea that I was, well, different in ways that were hard to articulate. Just weeks before the chilling Court House explosion, a group of five kids suddenly jumped me after I had run what I thought was a simple errand to the corner store for my parents. 

I remember feeling an intense surge of anger after the ambush; in that moment, I walked over to the side of our brick housing project, punched a cement wall with all my might, and ended up fracturing a capstone without inflicting any harm on myself. I was just 11 years old at the time. When my parents discovered what I had done, the look of terror in their eyes was unmistakable. They took me to multiple doctors, trying to comprehend how a child could break a cement wall without sustaining any injuries in the process. 

The doctors, however, dismissed their concerns outright, suggesting my mother was overreacting and insisting that it simply couldn’t have happened as she described, even going so far as to recommend that perhaps she might benefit from some counseling herself. So now, here was my father, standing beside me in the disturbing aftermath of the courthouse explosion, grappling with the unnerving realization that his son not only possessed inexplicable strength but also seemed to have an uncanny ability to foresee events before they actually transpired.

The Venetian Veil

When we returned home from the events at the Courthouse, my father was unusually quiet, far more so than I had ever seen him before. My mother, sensing the weight of the moment, immediately asked what had happened, and after a brief, hushed, and private mumbling conversation with her, they both sat me down with an air of solemnity. My mom explained to me something I had never heard before in my young life: I had been born with a Venetian veil—a rare phenomenon sometimes believed to be associated with heightened intuition or “special” abilities that set me apart from others. It was the first—and, as it would turn out, the last—time my parents ever mentioned it to me. We never discussed the courthouse incident again, as if it were a hidden wound we all agreed not to acknowledge. Life went on, carrying its usual rhythm, but something profound and unspoken shifted that day in our relationship. I sensed their unease around me after that moment (I guess to them I was living, breathing Irish Folklore in real time), and it marked the beginning of my lifelong journey and quest into exploring internal energy, spiritual awareness, and martial arts to find out what the hell, who the hell, and where the hell I truly am.

A Life of Possibility

Looking back, that fateful day at the courthouse wasn’t just an isolated event that happened in my life; it was an incredibly pivotal moment that awakened me to the special potential that lay dormant within myself all along. Since then, I have fully embraced my “weirdness,” recognizing with clarity that what makes me different also gives me a profound sense of purpose in life. However, this journey hasn’t been easy or straightforward.

Helping to raise human consciousness often feels like walking headfirst into a massive, unyielding headwind—people either seek me out to exploit my unique gifts solely for their own benefit or dismiss them entirely. In their jealousy, they secretly hope for my downfall and demise because they cannot grasp how an “Irish kid from the projects of South Boston” could do the things I do. Recently, while engaging in the daunting task of purging old boxes in my attic as a part of my nightly duties (which involves a long story of its own), I stumbled upon a long-forgotten copy of the official report from that courthouse explosion ( see photo).

Holding that significant piece of history in my hands brought all the energy and emotions rushing back: the warnings echoing in my mind, the fear that gripped my heart, and the unfortunate distance that grew between my parents and me. It serves as a poignant reminder that the possibilities of what truly is often go far beyond what we can logically explain or comprehend. And perhaps, just maybe, that’s the point of it all.

My “Family” may not have ever truly known me, but I suppose they were still able to experience the “unique” side of the metaphysical world in real time during the time we all shared together, so in that case, I hope it helped raise their consciousness.

PS:
The funny story?

My uncle was Mayor of Boston in the 1960’s, and when he passed in 1995, his funeral was attended by numerous global dignitaries. One of the people I met there was a judge who had worked with my Father in the past. The judge looked at me and said, “Wow, you’ve grown! I remember when you used to ride your skateboard through my courtroom!”

Yup… 100% true—and we all shared a great laugh.

"I Will ______" in 2025: Why This Year Will Be Different (Maybe)

It’s officially 2025, folks.

 We’ve survived another trip around the sun, and the new year has come loaded with the usual cargo: resolutions, promises, and declarations like “This year, I will finally [insert lofty goal here].” 

Sounds familiar, doesn’t it? Well, before you dive headfirst into this annual exercise in optimism, let’s get real about why change can feel like chasing a caffeine fueled hamster on an infinite wheel. The truth is, making meaningful changes requires breaking old patterns. And breaking patterns isn’t as easy as swapping coffee for matcha or adding kale to your smoothies. If it were, you’d already have the six-pack, the perfect relationship, and the ability to resist doom-scrolling at 2 a.m.

Patterns: The Invisible Reality Puppeteers

Let’s cut to the chase: most of us are stuck in loops, whether we realize it or not. These patterns are sneaky little devils—woven into how we think, feel, and act. They’re inherited, learned, or sometimes just karmic souvenirs you’ve been lugging around for lifetimes. The result? You set goals but unconsciously sabotage them. It’s like saying, “I will quit procrastinating,” but then binge-watching cat videos for three hours.

Breaking patterns isn’t about willpower. It’s about understanding what’s driving them in the first place. You can’t fight what you don’t see. That’s where the magic happens, and no, it’s not the kind of magic that involves fairy dust or chanting under a full moon (unless that’s your thing).

Helena Collins’ Apex Life in Synergy Program: The Karma Game Changer

If you’re serious about tackling those patterns, meet your new best friend: Helena Collins and her Apex Life in Synergy program. Think of it as a master class in rewiring your inner autopilot. This program goes beyond the surface-level “just think positive” advice. It digs deep—helping you recognize and dismantle the energetic blocks holding you back.

Whether your goal is to level up your career, improve your relationships, or finally stop having the same bs arguments with yourself, Apex Life in Synergy equips you with the tools to make it happen. It’s practical, powerful, and tailored for real people living real lives.

(Also, if you’re reading this while eating leftover holiday cookies, no judgment—Apex Life in Synergy is all about meeting you where you’re at.)

Why 2025? Because It’s Already Here

Here’s the funny thing about 2025: it’s not waiting for you to get your act together. The global clock is ticking toward 2026, and the world keeps spinning. If you keep saying, “I will _____,” without taking action, you’re just putting today’s goals on tomorrow’s to-do list. Spoiler: tomorrow is always one day away.

The good news? Change is always possible—no matter what year it is. But to make real progress, you need to get off the hamster wheel and learn how to walk your own path. Helena Collins can show you the way.

Visit Life in Synergy to learn more and make 2025 the year you actually keep your promises to yourself.

Leveling Up: A Guide to Enlightenment in 2025

Glow up in 2025 with Life in Synergy.com

When you hear enlightenment, what comes to mind?

A wise old monk meditating in the mountains? Some guru dropping "fire" knowledge? Let’s keep it 100—enlightenment isn’t some bougie, out-of-reach vibe. It’s about unlocking your best self, flexing your inner peace, and vibing high in this chaotic world.

What Even Is Enlightenment?

Enlightenment isn’t about being perfect or hitting god-mode in life. It’s more like realizing that the grind, the drama, and the noise? They’re not the main character—you are. It’s when you stop letting your past Ls or future anxiety gatekeep your present moment. Enlightenment is the ultimate glow-up for your mind and soul.

Signs You’re On the Path to Enlightenment

1. You’re Unbothered AF.
   Drama hits, and instead of popping off, you’re like, “Okay, cool.” You’re not out here wasting your energy on stuff that doesn’t vibe with your growth.

2. Your Intuition Is OP.
   You start trusting your gut more than that random TikTok psychic. Decisions feel more aligned, and you’re not second-guessing every move.

3. You Let Go of the Cringe.
   Whether it’s your ex or that embarrassing thing you said in 8th grade, you learn to release the stuff that doesn’t serve you.

4. You’re Obsessed with Growth.
   Enlightenment is the OG self-improvement plan. You’re constantly leveling up, not just for clout but because it feels legit good.

How to Start Your Enlightenment Arc

1. Stop Doomscrolling and Start Meditating.

You don’t need a $500 a day yoga retreat or a crystal collection to meditate. Just find a quiet spot, sit down, and breathe. Even five minutes of mindfulness can turn your brain from a chaotic group chat into a peaceful playlist.

2. Cut Out Low-Vibe Energy.

If your group chat is all tea and toxicity, maybe it’s time to mute the convo. Surround yourself with people who hype you up and want to see you win. Helena Collins of Life in Synergy perhaps? The quicker you see an opportunity and take advantage of it ( like studying with Helena a true Master of enlightenment) the sooner you will see the world behind the world.

3. Focus on the Present Moment.

Being stuck in the past or stressing about the future is so last season. Practice staying in the now. Pro tip: Next time you’re eating, put down your phone and really taste your food. Game-changer.

4. Get Real About Your Patterns.

Why do you keep dating the same walking red flag? Or procrastinating until 2 AM? Enlightenment isn’t just about good vibes—it’s about facing your patterns head-on. This is where Helena Collins' Apex Life in Synergy program can help. It’s like a cheat code to uncover why you’re stuck and how to break free. Check it out at www.lifeinsynergy.com.

Why Enlightenment is the Ultimate Flex

In a world where everyone’s chasing clout, being enlightened is the real flex. It’s not about how many followers you have or what car you drive—it’s about inner peace, self-awareness, and living authentically. When you’re enlightened, you’re not playing the comparison game. You’re out here, fully aligned, living your best life.

TL;DR: Enlightenment is For Everyone

You don’t need to be a monk or a spiritual influencer to level up. Enlightenment is about doing the inner work, ditching what doesn’t serve you, and stepping into your power. Start small, keep it real, and trust the process. The glow-up will come. And if you need a boost, hit up Helena Collins and her Apex Life in Synergy program—it’s like having a coach for your soul.

Ready to vibe higher? Let’s get it.

You can lead a horse to water but you can’t make them drink.

🥷🥷🥷🥷🥷🥷🥷🥷🥷🥷🥷🥷🥷🥷🥷

Let me tell you about a business owner decades ago that came to me for a special packet of energy: a name for their expanding empire.

After being a client of mine for years on Newbury Street and seeing many miracles along the way occur for them as a result of my work, they experienced the power that goes beyond the principles of business, the unseen frequencies that bind success, or failure. And so, I did what I do. I tuned in. I sought the right resonance, the specific vibration that would align their business with prosperity and the cosmic flow.

I found it for them. The correct name.

I discussed with them, too, as I always do with these things and said, "This name may bring you great success, but it is not a thing to be screwed with at all. Change it, and you will open a door you cannot close. And that world, will be out of my hands as I am just the plumber cleaning out cosmic clogs. If you change the name, you will clog a drain that I just unclogged". For years, this name was their key. Business boomed, new locations opened, and the prosperity flowed like fine wine.

But people forget. Success blinds.

They grew, expanded out, and somewhere along the way, they forgot all about me, my past miracles for them and my instruction. Maybe they had outgrown me or the name or needed something fresh ( Who knows why), maybe something trendy to match their newfound fame. So, they changed it on their own but never contacted me again for my services to see if it felt okay.

I wasn’t there when it happened. I had already moved on, guided by new clients, new frequencies to match with those who sought me out. But word reached me that the business started to falter and issues were coming up. The empire I had helped create began to crumble under the weight of...something. Something unseen. Or maybe, just maybe, it was that new name frequency creating an alternate reality.

The last time I saw the client at our last physical meeting, I could see it in their eyes.

What I gave was not just a name, it was a Divine key, tuned precisely to the universe’s lock for them. When they threw it away, they created a new realm of chaos, uncertainty, and things outside of my control. So, for anyone reading this and thinking they can play with the frequencies of life without consequence, consider this story. There is mana in words, in a vibration, in the unseen. And there is mana in honoring that which was given to you with trust and faith, especially when the person who gave it warned you not to mess with it at all.

Sure, you bet your ass, I am an unconventional spiritual teacher/business consultant yes, but PhD’s, Dr’s, Lawyers, Rock Stars, Comedians, Moms, Pops, Aunts, Uncles, Finance leaders, Movie Stars, Business Owners, Scholars can’t all be wrong.

Food for thought: never judge a spiritual teacher by its cover….If you judge, you shall be judged or some shit like that.

Wow! See? A magazine likes me!

Who let the air out of the tires?

Did you ever have a moment when you felt that the world was your oyster?

Life itself was a supernova and the world was exactly on track?

You could see your role and it’s infinite possibilities on how you could contribute to the bigger picture of life itself and by doing so, you yourself would also ascend to new levels of consciousness? You may have had a specific song play in your head as a soundtrack and a special pep in your step as each step forward was indeed a step forward into a new world of your creation?

Then the fan that cosmically spun, suddenly had massive shit thrown directly at it and clogged its mechanisms. Suddenly you felt devastated, weakened and off track. Your very being was wiped and the pep in the step was replaced with the doom in your gloom. How can this be? How can a cosmic battery be drained so quickly?

Energy hounds and old patterns are Ninjas that’s why.

Both can knock a person off center at any time if a person loses sight of the unfortunate truth of our dimension: if there is good, there is evil.

A good person who is blind to this reality is subject to the double whammy of self attack and of the negative will of others. A self attack consists of subconscious thoughts and actions often sabotaging a persons forward progress. Why would a person do that to themselves you might think? They wouldn’t, the subconscious mind is simply a hard drive that stores information throughout a persons present ( and past) life and when challenged with new energy patterns, thoughts, deeds and actions may rebel against what it considers its “only”cemented reality.

This challenge may lead to self destructive actions, arguments, disillusionment as the subconscious tries its best to hold a firm grasp on “What is” and unknowingly a person will fall prey to the subtle aspects of old ways surfacing and causing slow downs in ones progress. I personally went through periods of this as I studied deeply in Chi Gong and Hawaiian spiritual aspects throughout the years. I was challenged daily by my older mindset of being “just” an inner city kid who couldn’t possibly ever be like the Masters I idolized, after all, they had the secrets and me? I was just a guy from the projects in the lower end of South Boston.

All old bullshit in my subconscious.

As my training continued over the decades and I began to wake to the acknowledge that I was the person people came to see from all over the world to create change for them at my office on Newbury street in Boston’s Back Bay and I was rewriting my life story daily by fully dedicating myself to the new energies I was creating. I will pat myself on the back and say I also never forgot that there is a ton of negative bullshit out there and stayed true to my inner city side (keeping a spiritual head on a swivel) so I guess in many ways I accepted that the yin yang as just not an Asian symbol, but an absolute fact on the ever shifting levels of invisible influential duplicity and prepared myself for any and all “Ninjas” that may pop up.

If there is light, there is indeed dark and a seeker has to be prepared and learn how to feel the subtle changes of these intertwining flows moment by moment. As you unlock new levels of self , you can and will identify the “What was energy” and “What is” and be more aware to old energies trying to regain frequency control and influence your thoughts and actions. This is the key to not allowing subconscious influence to creep in as you ascend into new heights.

Energy hounds?

Now they are on a whole different predatory level.

They are ones that when you say things like “What a wonderful sunny day” they will say to you “ No, Not really, “blank” is currently in war and people are dying or tell you a story about how a relative of theirs can’t be out in the sun and cries in a window when the sun comes out. You know the type, we have all met someone like this be it at work, social life or encounter with a stranger on the street. These people will say white is black, up is down, day is night and so on, all to just cause a rift in your peace so they can feed on your positive field reaction and use it for themselves. They in turn will make you feel as if you are one that has all the facts wrong and then add onto the energy draining by gaslighting you into thinking that you may be wrong for being so positive in an often negative world.

We all know the feeling after being near a person like this: tired, confused, and completely off center.

These people are very easy to diffuse, you simply do not engage and if you have engaged…walk away. There is no being rude to a person who is trying to drain energy off you, it is simply aura self defense. You owe nothing to an energy hound, if you work with one, if you are friends with one, if you just met one…..when you feel the shift in your vibration begin and feel a “pull” into this persons world…walk away. Preservation is better than being reduced to their level. Who cares if they say “You are rude” as they are simply sending out feelers to pull you back in to them by seeking another reaction from you by doing so, see the endless tendrils?

You owe it to yourself to read this blog and then study what thoughts YOU then have….are they telling you “This is bullshit” perhaps?

Mine thought was just that many decades ago when I met the Kahuna I would study with for the very 1st time, he quickly altered that thought of mine and well, off I went into the land of renew and haven’t stopped yet. He has since passed away and in many ways I feel as if I have picked up the staff and gone off into the desert of the world continuing my “job” of being the man behind the curtain of change. I remember when he came to Boston 2 decades ago after I did something VERY large for the city and pulled me aside and told me that All ( including him) in his organization should be studying with me, he was so proud of what I had become and said that saying that fact to people in his organization would cause many wonderful “opportunities” to grow and advance. I asked him why would people reject that fact if they were indeed so ascended? He said in his great old Hawaiian accent ( sort of like a Hawaiian Jerry Seinfeld) “ Ohhhh, no matter who people think they are, they always have ego tapping them on their shoulders to remind them they are not”.

So I ask you at YOUR crossroads, see that blue button below?

That is now your chance to ascend, a chance to begin to study new ways or let old outdated energies run your life ( and thus all life on Earth based on Quantum Entanglement). By simply clicking off and taking some morsels of knowledge to regurgitate that you read on this blog and not telling your clients, friends or co workers about www.lifeinsynergy.com, you continue the rule of old energies on the planet and add onto the “take take take” imbalances on Earth or you can purchase one of our programs and help shift the planet.
