Optimally Healing Ourselves to Reach Widespread Conscious Living

The goals of the wonderful organization Groking Wholeness overlap those of my outreaches so I am honored to write this article.
My journey of awakening really took off at age 19 when I worked part-time as a respiratory therapist during my pre-med studies. Being with many suffering and dying adults and children brought me to my existential knees. I resolved to find sensible and, whenever possible, evidence-based answers to life's biggest questions including:
1. Who am I?
2. Why am I here?
3. What happens after my body dies?
4. Is there really a loving Creative Intelligence?
5. How can I best live during this earthly experience?
You know the list.
I trained as a pastoral counselor, psychologist, holistic chiropractic physician, and clinical nutritionist and helped many people heal physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual imbalances. Now retired from private practice, I assist many people worldwide through SoulProof, SoulPhone Project, Helping Parents Heal, and other outreaches.
In this article, I will share how you, your loved ones, and members of your organization can greatly benefit from the Greater Reality Healing, Living, and Helping Program that I founded and direct. The program provides FREE articles, videos, e-books, audio programs, meetings, sharing sessions, Q & As, and follow-up support.
Program meetings include: (1) a short presentation by me about two keys to optimally healing, living, and helping; (2) Q & A; (3) guest speaker once a month; and (4) sharing sessions once a month. Sharing sessions include about six people with a moderator in an open-minded and safe Zoom setting. People can discuss anything they want without fear of judgment. These sessions also allow people to network and expand their circle of kindred spirits. (Click here to see our list of Guest Speakers for 2026.)
The information and resources in this program can immensely help after any major change or challenge that SEEM like losses when viewing life through the limited human brain's lens. These changes include the bodily death of a beloved person or pet, illness and disability, financial reversals, relationship break-ups, lack of meaning, loved ones with mental imbalances and addictions, and more. Allow me to explain how this is possible . . .
The term 'Greater Reality' describes all that exists, the totality of life. Synonyms for this include the big picture of life, the nature of reality, and how life is REALLY set up. In the past, teachings about life, death, and afterlife primarily came from ancient religious teachings. These often were fear-based, inaccurate, involved vested interests, and were altered over time. Understandably, this created much confusion, fear, and despair among people.
However, it's now clear – based on much scientific, clinical, and experiential evidence – that this earthly experience is a totally safe, meaningful, and magnificent adventure amidst forever. It may not appear that way at times, but that is what the collective evidence indicates. In our book Greater Reality Living, Gary E. Schwartz PhD and I compiled 'The Great News' about the Nature of Reality. These ten indications about how life is really set up include:
life continues after bodily death
you can visit with loved ones who have passed on now AND after you change worlds
you are an integral, infinite, and beloved part of Source Energy right now
you are experiencing this earthly visit at this time for important reasons
And that's just the first four items!
This evidence-based information about the big picture of life changes everything for the better. Armed with this contemporary knowledge, your higher self, and spiritual support team, you can positively shift the way you live and treat yourself, others, and our planet. (Note: The term 'spiritual support team' denotes your angels, guides, master teachers, and The Light. Secular terms for this include higher energy assistance, Cosmic Consciousness, and other descriptors of highly evolved energies.) Again, the Greater Realty Program provides FREE articles, videos, e-books, audio programs, meetings, sharing sessions, Q & As, and follow-up support to help you and your loved ones:
a. HEAL despite past or current circumstances
b. LIVE the greatest life YOU have envisioned
c. HELP others which helps you and, as a meta-effect, our world
(Note: The term YOU refers to your eternal consciousness / real self / totality of energy / soul)
Taking higher-energy journeys after what seem like tragedies may sound impossible. However, my training, experience, and lessons from many people I've worked with have taught me more enlightened paths that you can CHOOSE after apparent losses. Many deeply suffering people have demonstrated how to have a breakthrough instead of a breakdown. In a nutshell, they consciously choose one day at a time to become better, not bitter. They discovered how to find silver linings, benefit from them, and share them with others.
Here are three real-life examples of people who demonstrated what is possible:
.
* Beth returned home from work to find that her husband, two children, and family pets had all passed on from carbon monoxide poisoning. When she contacted me, I expected angry outlashes at God and life but, instead, she asked how she could help others who have gone through tough challenges.
* Robert had just read my book Soul Proof before seeing a specialist about his severe bodily symptoms. The doctor confirmed the diagnosis of a progressive and eventually terminal disease. After hearing this, he described his feelings: 'Thanks to your book, I can honestly say that I felt surrounded by love and knew I would find the strength to go through this with style.'
* Don wrote: I've been suicidal every day for about a year. Your articles are amazing and really helped me a lot. What a great service you provide for humanity. My spiritual awakening has been brutal . . . words cannot express. But I'm going to find silver linings and share them with others.
With the information, resources, and support in this program, you can also take the high road no matter your current or past circumstances. However, it's very difficult to identify and share your your soul's missions when you are significantly grieving, anxious, depressed, fatigued, and/or ill. That's why it's important to fine-tune yourself holistically as describe in my book Radiant Wellness. With renewed balance, vitality, and an expanded vision, your suffering can trigger a deeper search for answers to life's biggest questions. And that, in turn, can lead to personal growth, learning, adventures, enjoyment, and service to others.
What's more, a sufficient number of awakening people naturally leads to widespread conscious living. See article #125 Eight Developments for Widespread Conscious Living Now to learn how our world can come together as more people optimally heal, live, and help. (Groking Wellness is one of the stellar organizations listed in category five of that article.)

Mark
