To everyone that is observing, seems as though there's an endless stream of bad news out there on the horizon. And it's not likely to change in the near future. I'm not ignoring everything, the multitude of ills and tragedies, at hand. I simply reserve a "safe zone" inside my soul. There's where nothing can disturb your inner peace. Where it's mell…

In a short while, most of us will be thrust into a frenzy of world news, political campaigns, sporting events, and, don't forget, vacation plans! Yippee!? Really?? Which of us actually believes that we can somehow keep pace with such an avalanche of issues AND it have no harmful effect? Not leave us drained or despairing? Well, it might be possible…

This Journey opens up with some of the liveliest melodies ever heard. And that should be enough reason for us to "just go for it", you know. Move around some, and check for a pulse. Or sit, and store up some of that energy for a future endeavor. Not meaning to be the one to give out my advice, per se. It's a soundtrack I'm providing, to hopefully m…

Welcome to this episode. Where you can feel your Spirit lifting above your present circumstances. Enjoy the moment, even when you have to come back to Earth. It's a preview, of sorts, to a day when we truly ascend. Free. Never again to be shackled, by sorrow, by trials, and by regret. Let's go! - Diego…

Hopefully, it sets me apart from others in this field. You'…

Get yourself a well needed dose of Hope, to keep going. Things might seem as though they might go South, and stay there, but you don't need your mood descending as well. And no one says it's easy , because it isn't. Frankly, nothing could be further from our natural tendencies, than carrying a happy tune, while a storm rages on the horizon. But sto…

This Journey is one that invites everyone to just loosen up, and live a little. Do a happy dance! Or stretch out on a road trip with the Journey, and feel the adrenaline rush. Better watch your speed, though. Have some safe fun. -Diego

This Journey is sure to allow us an opportunity to listen to our inner voice. Where positive messages about our worth, and value are rehearsed, and reinforced. We have to give ourselves a pep talk every now and then. Through thick and thin, the best direction is forward. Eventually, we manage to see the daybreak, showing us that the night is gone. …

We all get discouraged from time to time, if we're real about life. And it can certainly be a challenge to meet problems head on. And this Journey is no "Cure All" solution to major tests or troubles you might be going through. I wish it were so simple. I just want you to take a listen to the melodies I have provided. I find them soothing and deep.…

While considering the splendor of the great expansive galaxies, out beyond the skies, fashioned from your perfect design and craftsmanship, I stand awestruck. What purposes led to the creation of humankind? To we, framed in frailty, somehow linked with the majesty, the infinite energy, symmetry, and glory that surpasses anything imaginable. Leaving…

Our hope is that this podcast is an aid to those searching for that place where there is soothing comfort, encouragement, and quiet contemplation (not too quiet, or you'll be napping). In short, a buffering place for the soul, lodged between the typical stressors that surround us. Providing a gap that could allow us to avoid them, altogether, going…

When seeds underground sense the warmth of the sun above, they press through the soil and deliver their verdant treasures, out from the surface of the earth. And we also, press up through pain, discouragement, and sometimes loss. To find a new Spring season for our own life. It, unfortunately, means rain, flooding, and maybe strong gusts that upset…

Something tells me that you may have had some setbacks, or problems lately. If so, just remember that you still have what it takes to turn the tide. I'm sure your hope and determination will outlast that trend, no matter how grim it looks. You're still breathing. Stay positive, and let yourself connect with the vibes contained in this BONUS journey…

"How could that happen?", we say. Suffering is inevitable. But, don't think that you're all alone! This is what this episode is saying to you. It's meant to give you a bit of joy, but it has some parts that will make you cry, also. Let it flow. And eventually, the sun also rises! -Diego

The old adage "Help me to have Serenity to accept the things I cannot change, Courage to change what I can, and the Wisdom to know the difference", is surely thoughtful discourse. And this journey should help you contemplate, as well as concentrate, on these things. So, join me in the relentless search for Serenity. -Diego…

Friends, if you are reading this, you've made it into the New Year. Maybe we barely made it, but that's something, at least. If you're wondering what's in store, then welcome to the group!

A change in the climate, as in warmer weather, is happening in the Northern hemisphere. Truly, the seasons are constant even though we get storms, we can expect some sunny days. I hope you know that I remain positive, even as world events make our forecasts a little bit scary. And these storms, though damaging, cannot destroy our future success, as…

You question your chances and look for answers. Please, don't listen to negative messages. If anything, block out everything, until you can see the dawn of a new day, rising over the mountain ridge right ahead of you. When you prevail, it means that you persevered past that challenge. No matter what happens, your growth is worth all the effort. Str…

Let boldness lead you through the hard days. Starting a new task can be a challenge that you'd rather not have to face. Once you catch a glimpse of the end goal, however, will make it seem less overwhelming. And you will find confidence knowing that someone who believes in you is always beside you. Break those barriers! - Diego…

This past year has taken its toll. Let everyone start looking at life as a gift we can give to one another. REALLY. If we want to live a life that matters, we have to. Think of a better, world by our making a better US first. I hope listening to the journey this week will do that for you. -Diego

Never question your value, though at times we may question the decisions we've made. The Universe will balance itself, and we all have a chance at redemption.

You will certainly face challenges whenever new events happen. They can usher in a host of problems and stresses. Take the time to survey what you're up against.

Oh, yeah! The music and the artists in this journey have proven to be just as current, and noteworthy as ever.
