“You may have a fresh start at any moment you choose, for this thing that we call ‘failure’ is not the falling down, but the staying down.”—Mary Pickford, 1893–1979, actress and producer

 

 

 

Counselor in the Spotlight, March/April 2012
Jim Nolan

Jim Nolan is the President of Southwestern College in Santa Fe. Consistent with the mission and philosophy of Southwestern, he has a strong interest in consciousness, awareness, and being awake as we walk through our daily lives, especially when it seems most difficult to do so. This approach to life has led to Jim’s interest in Positive Psychology, Coaching, and the New Thought approaches to personal growth and leadership. Recent favorite influences include Eckhart Tolle, Abraham-Hicks, William Walker Atkinson and the Social Media explosion. Jim can be contacted on Facebook or at Docwahoo@yahoo.com.

“Counselor in the Spotlight randomly features a NMASERVIC member counselor. The views presented by individual counselors are their own and do not necessarily represent the views of NMASERVIC.”

 

Welcome to New Mexico Association for Spiritual, Ethical and Religious Values in Counseling

We honor the diversity of humanity and the diverse expressions of the human spirit. We are the New Mexico branch of ASERVIC, a national organization of counselors and human development professionals who believe spiritual, ethical, and religious values are essential to the overall development of the person and are committed to integrating these values into the counseling process.

Celebrating And Sending Love

A person should always offer a prayer of graciousness for the love that has awakened in them. When you feel love for your beloved and his or her love for you, now and again you should offer the warmth of your love as a blessing for those who are damaged and unloved. Send that love out into the world to people who are desperate; to those who are starving; to those who are trapped in prison; in hospitals and all the brutal terrains of bleak and tormented lives. When you send that love out from the bountifulness of your own love, it reaches other people. This love is the deepest power of prayer.

— John O’Donohue, Anam Cara “The Wounded Gift” (from Chapter 1)
