6 Success Secrets in Your Therapy and
Life Coaching Journey
The WISDOM podcast Season 4 Episode 22
~ The answers to best guide you in your self-directed personal growth and in therapy and life coaching. ~
💜
~ The First in a Series on Therapy and Life Coaching Tools for Self-Mastery and Excellence ~
In this episode, I give you the answers to best guide you in your self-directed personal growth and in therapy and life coaching with six secrets. These are the protocols to see you through to succeed in the change you seek.
A mind shift begins with one change that you allow yourself to hold – to witness its possibility and potential – and to remember that everything that is driven by your heart is attainable.
My Questions for You as We Begin:
1. What are you prepared to do to help yourself ~ and to ensure you will achieve the goals you seek?
2. What will make the experience of therapy and life coaching successful for you?
These two questions help prepare the scope of which our work will be.
Each Tuesday at 8pm EST, I take you on a journey - inside - what happens in a session of Life Coaching and Therapy in the 'ask dorothy' series as we answer the questions that honor your path and your life.
Sending you great 💜 love...
Namaste!

My Personal Best ~ How Far Can I Go?
No Limits Self-Transformation
The WISDOM podcast Season 4 Episode 19
~ In every moment ~ you all hold a choice. The choices you decide determine everything. ~
💜
~ The Fourth in a Series of Six on Personal Transformation ~
Personal transformation is an ever-changing and uniquely individualized process of expanding consciousness whereby individuals become consciously aware of previous and new self-perceptions and choose to integrate these into a new definition and way of being ~ of self.
To help you get started ~ to provide some of the road map that will set you up for the personal ideals that you can live by ~ be sure to check out my Episode featuring the eight self-transformational tools that become the success habits of your life up levelled. Listen here:
😊
"Personal transformation is the act of rendering yourself what new habits and routines will build the certainty of all that you seek and know and believe to be possible – for there are no measures without the certainty and willingness of personal transformation led by the joy of your desire for more." ~ dorothy zennuriye juno
When you think of personal best ~ are you remembering that it is your best and no one else’s ?
Are you remembering that personal best requires an elevation in your consciousness that is the true catalyst for all that you may achieve?
Because knowledge begins with the embracing of our power and potential to rise above everything we have every known. And as many of you know, change and transformation begin first in the mind and in the heart.
When you include the larger portrait of what deems wholeness, then personal best is the mindset you hold and how you shift your mindset when you feel less positive.
Personal best is the thoughts that become the beliefs you hold and how your thoughts and perceptions determine the kind of person you choose to be as well as how you feel about yourself and the consistent mood state that you deliberately live.
Something else about personal best that is very inspiring ~ you need to choose it. It is not enough to wait, to decide that the steps are too difficult or will take too much time. It is about holding belief in the desires that fuel your happiness and all that you seek ~ and in all areas of life.

Self-Discipline as Self-Mastery
The WISDOM podcast Season 3 Episode 86
“ Self-Discipline IS Self-Mastery. Being disciplined is how we get things done. ”
💜
Do any of your desires require greater discipline, self-control, or the fierce passion and unrelenting belief in what is wanted?
We need to remember ~ to remind ourselves that self-discipline is also a guiding approach to everything.
It is holding belief in our ability to manifest ~ to obtain or achieve something that we do not yet see or taste or touch in our material world and it is also the energy we bring to everything that determines our role in what we do and what we live.
If you are at the edge of a precipice in your life – if something is wanted and perhaps you’ve been struggling with this, whether a goal or a new habit or a different way of thinking and being and if you haven’t yet been able to get there, let’s walk through some of the ways that you can approach your desires with the inner fire of discipline.
And I’m also going to share one simple and powerful way that will help you get started ~ now.
But first....a few more questions to help you contemplate what is wanted in a very clear way.
What can you draw from that allows you to feel impassioned with life and with the aspects of your life that you wish to focus upon?
Where can you hold fierce discipline and simultaneously the benevolence (a devotion to do good and to be loving kindness) of living with your heart open to give and receive?
~ Tapas are spiritual practices that often involve a high degree of self-discipline, solitude and periods of deep meditation. ~
Because discipline works best if you are kind and patient yet firm and loving with yourself throughout the process.
What becomes for you a new and refined practice of discipline may be best practised as a spiritual discipline ~ as something that is acquired out of love and servitude to yourself for a higher goal or purpose that is beyond you ~ that is bigger than you...
and the way in which you can approach all of life then becomes a practice of grace.

Love Your Life NOW
The WISDOM podcast Season 3 Episode 84
"You must and you can love your life as it is, even as you seek more."
~ dorothy zennuriye juno
💜
To fall in love with your life also suggests that you are constantly making choices that are aligned with what you truly want ~ and what is wanted.
The secret to enjoying your life ~ to loving your life ~ is enjoying and appreciating the present moments of what your life is now and in the absence of critical or judgmental thoughts.
In appreciating yourself more and as you enjoy more of all of who you are ~ you learn to love who you currently are. This is how you provide the fertile ground to continue your ever expanding desires for more.
Realize that you are constantly choosing your life. Nowhere is that more important than as you seek to live in the perfection of who you are.
Falling in love with your life means that you also appreciate and value yourself even more.
How can you fall in love with your life as it is now?
Sending you great 💜 love...
Sharing the wisdom and beauty of divine love with you...
Namaste!

In this bliss meditation you deepen the practice of self-love as a state of being that you live in.
Bliss meditations are my signature feel the love, hold abundance, seek comfort and safety and presence and manifest all possibilities. They are an exquisite experience of the divine and all sacred moments of the present.
Nowhere is it more profound then to honour the brilliance of who you are.
Because when you cherish and love yourself as you inherently heal the parts of you that have been mired in disharmony. You see to hold the dignity of love, to share it unto yourself and to feel the hope and satisfaction of all of what lies waiting in store.
You can live in the certainty of the present moment. You can acknowledge your greatness and the conditions of your life that are meant to inspire and reveal so much love and you can also invite and appreciate all of life's goodness that is here and for you.
Enjoy this!
Sending you great 💜 love...

Cultivating Self-Awareness ~ A Spiritual Practice
The WISDOM podcast Season 3 Episode 78
“Approach each day and action with a sense of sacredness. Heed the present moment.”
💜
Self-Awareness is the sacred attention you give to yourself in light of all that you are and all that you continue to seek. ~ dorothy zennuriye juno
Now let’s take self-awareness a step beyond...
Sometimes we forget that we are the most ever present source of our own knowledge.
For all that you continue to seek ~ for all that is in the path of your awakened state ~ for all that you bring here and into the present moment, you life becomes the sojourn of your expression.
To cultivate self-awareness is to be present in the moments of your life as they unfold ~ as they hold you near ~ as they reveal the truth ~ the truth that sometimes you are quick to disprove or diminish ~ its possibilities not yet clear.
Instead, the practice is to be willing to look ~ to see ~ to know that what is there ~ what is waiting, what is yours to uncover is ultimately for your benefit ~ your understanding, your free will choice whether to the energy of change you create around this or to let it be as it is.
Seek to know thyself. Know what is yours and what has never been a part of you.
This is the path of wholeness. This is the path to living awake and aware and of discovering the world and your life from a place of true miracles, true messages of goodness, of hope, of dedication, of love that is for you the blessings of life that you live now.

PRATYAHARA ~ Awareness of the Senses ~
The Fifth Limb of The Yoga Sutras
The WISDOM podcast Season 3 Episode 65
~ See without the senses distracting or pulling the mind, ~
💜
*Pratyahara is the fifth limb of yoga in the Ashtanga yoga system—also called the eight-limbed path of the yoga sutras—and it serves as a foundation for the practice of meditation.
Through meditation, you can better understand how to hone your awareness, connect to the present moment, and find inner peace or calm.
In the practice of pratyahara you draw your mind inward ~ you release the urge to immediately react to incoming sensation. You approach stilling the mind by shifting the act of sensing from an external to an internal orientation.
Through the practice of pratyahara, you develop concentrative powers that could be called supra ~ above sensory because the act of seeing or feeling becomes heightened to a tremendous degree. It is as though you have new eyes and ears, new senses. You perceive colour more vividly and enjoy your food more, and as you truly wake your senses, you awaken to and value the inner psychological and spiritual dimensions that are the substance and source of what you feel, see, taste, smell and hear.
Your attention in the practice of pratyahara is directed inwards, being totally aware of where the impulse to breathe in and breathe out arises. The total awareness of this itself is pratyahara – or drawing one’s attention into and within oneself.
I liken this to what I call a state of bliss. And yes it is a state of being that you can live in as you practice pratyahara ad as you seek to live this state more of the time – especially during the practice of meditation, mindfulness, inner contemplation, presence in this moment.
Join me for this beautiful exploration of the fourth limb of the Yoga Sutras ~ PRATYAHARA.
Sending you great 💜 love...
Sharing the wisdom and beauty of divine love with you...
Namaste!

The Official Name Change Episode
The WISDOM podcast Season 3 Episode 59
~ "Change is needed. Change is inevitable. Change is freedom.” - dorothy zennuriye juno ~
💜
What bold and daring decision have you made a reality?
Do you follow your heart regularly and do you follow it through to where it leads you?
Have you ever done something radically different and then fallen in love with it?
Have you ever felt an inner desire that you gave your attention to that spurred you towards action ~ whether it was to write a book, learn an instrument, build a garden, , move your life to a different geography, have a child, give up an addiction, or perhaps to fall in love with yourself and your life?
There are some of the many experiences of making decisions driven by an awakened voice within you and the conscious desire to evolve and transform ~ to live full on and unapologetically as your true self ~ even if at times, you may not know (just yet) where the path unfolding ~ will lead.
This episode is dedicated to each one of you as you begin the steps ~ a simple yet excitable idea that launches you towards sight unseen, what will become a future revelation of you ~ and at other times the giant and indeed scary leaps forward ~ towards the vision you have always held ~ your heart certain ~ all that you need to do is follow its urging towards something new and always in hopes of a brighter and more compelling life ~ that you are choosing.
Sending you great 💜 love...
Sharing the wisdom and beauty of divine love with you...
Namaste!

SVADHYAYA ~ Self-Study ~
The Niyamas Series: 4 of 5
The WISDOM podcast Season 3 Episode 55
~ The world gives you what you see. ~
💜
In this week’s episode we dive into the discipline of self-study and why this is necessary for self-fulfillment, epic growth, and personal freedom.
Here I share the steps for self-study and the ways in which we can experience our perceptions to invite us deeper into ourselves with love and grace and appreciation and for learning how capable we are.
The Sanskrit word for this is svadhyaya. Sanskrit is the world’s oldest language and it is the ancient and the classic language of India.
'Self-study' or Svadhyaya refers to knowing our true identity as divine consciousness. Think of it like this: This means that you already are ‘good enough’ capable, and perfect as you are.
Svadhyaya is the fourth of 5 Niyamas or observances that originate in the ancient text of the Yoga Sutras of Pantanjali.
The Yoga Sutras or ‘threads’ (as this word translates from Sanskrit) are a collection of 196 short verses that serve as a guide to attain wisdom and self-realization on how to live in order to advance along a spiritual path towards enlightenment.
Beyond the postures of yoga, the scripture of the yoga sutras provides the disciplines and observances that guide you in a practical and sacred methodology – to bring greater understanding to your life experiences and the guidance for taking ownership of your life, directing it towards the fulfillment that you seek.
In this episode I cite and also quote directly from Deborah Adele’s book: . From my research and study of the Yamas and the Niyamas, I’ve found Deborah’s book to be thoroughly enjoyable to read and I love how she has woven personal stories and other wisdom teachings throughout. I will leave a link here for how you can get a copy.
The yogis teach that we, as human beings, are at our core ~ divine consciousness.
Around this pure consciousness we have been impacted by our varied experiences, our conditioning, and our belief systems. This changes the way in which we see and identify ourselves, what we believe to be true, our preferences and dislikes, and our fears ~ and imagination.
If you think about the various layers that we hold ~ each informed by country, culture, gender, family history, the groups we belong to, and our personal experiences, it becomes difficult to remember who we truly are.
Who you are is the god consciousness. You don’t need to pray to a god outside of you. You simply need to be your god consciousness far more of the time ~ to live this ~ and to realize how incredible you are as your goodness.
The yogis tell us that we suffer because we forget who we are. We forget that we are really the divine.
Svadhyaya or self-study is about knowing our true identity and understanding the experiences that have shaped us. We find clues to this by watching our projections, tracing our reactions back to a belief we hold, and by courageously looking at life as it is.
This process of knowing ourselves creates a path to freedom. The ability to shift the way in which we identify ourselves from our ego to being a witness, and finally to our true identity as the divine itself is what svadhyaya – calls the joy of self-study.
I close out the episode with the practical ways to embrace the teaching of Svadhyaya. Please join me!
Please consider a practice of self-study. Leave a note for me here! Share with me what you are learning in your devotion inward.
Sending you great 💜 love...
Sharing the wisdom and beauty of divine love with you...
Namaste!

TAPAS ~ Self-Discipline ~
The Niyamas Series: 3 of 5
The WISDOM podcast Season 3 Episode 53
~ "If we choose to walk into the fire, it is perhaps the greatest gift life could offer us." ~
💜
Welcome to the third episode in this series on the Niyamas. Niyama is a Sanskrit word that translates as “rules, guidelines, or observances.” Niyamas appear in Hindu and Buddhist texts, and they are best known as the second limb of the eight limbs of yoga, as described in Patanjali's Yoga Sutras.
These eight steps act as guidelines for how to live a meaningful and purposeful life. They serve as a prescription for moral and ethical conduct and principles; they direct attention toward one’s health; and they help us to acknowledge the spiritual aspects of our nature.
The Niyamas are an invitation into a radical exploration of possibility. Just how good can you feel? How joyful can your life be? Can you reveal just how amazing you are?
My hope in sharing each of the five niyamas – is to open you further to the spiritual life that you can live in the physical ~ and the absolute beauty and wonder that you may cultivate readily for yourself.
In this episode I cite and also quote directly from Deborah Adele’s book: The Yamas and Niyamas. Exploring Yoga’s Ethical Practice in addition to other sources that I will list in the description. They if you wish to continue your study.
Tapas - or self-discipline, austerity, perseverance, burning enthusiasm ~ describes a spirit of ‘fierce grace’.
In Tapas we employ physical and mental conditioning to push against the natural resistance our body and mind present. This resistance is what generates your inner fire.
The literal definition of tapas is “heat” – and in this case it is the heat that builds during periods of determined effort. Tapas accompanies any discipline that is willingly and gladly accepted in order to bring about a change of some kind—whether it be improved health, a new habit, better concentration, or a different direction in life.
Tapas is a process of burning through untruths, fears, discomfort, pain, and struggle ~ channelling the fire of that experience into self-disciplined actions that fuel your evolution.
Tapas focuses energy, creates fervour, and increases strength and confidence.
For example, the practice of asanas in yoga is a form of tapas for the body; meditation is a tapas that purifies and focuses the mind.
Tapas is the encouragement to tap into your inner fire as what you draw from ~ as discipline to transform yourself into something else.
I also invite to check out my 5-part series on the Yamas next. These are moral disciplines that transcend all world religions as guiding us to live of our light and our highest self. I will leave links for this series in the description.
Please consider how you can live with greater self-discipline. Allow your discipline to guide you into the fire of fierce grace. Leave a note for me here! Share with me the discipline that you invite into your life.
Sending you great 💜 love...
Sharing the wisdom and beauty of divine love with you...
Namaste!

SANTOSHA ~ Contentment ~
The Niyamas Series: 2 of 5
The WISDOM podcast Season 3 Episode 51
~ "Contentment is falling in love with your life.” - Swami Rama ~
💜
Welcome to this series on the Niyamas. Niyama is Sanskrit for “rules, guidelines, or observances.” Niyamas appear in Hindu and Buddhist texts, and they are best known as the second limb of the eight limbs of yoga, as described in Patanjali's Yoga Sutras.
In Indian traditions, particularly Yoga, Niyamas and their complement, Yamas, are recommended activities and habits for healthy living, spiritual enlightenment, and a liberated state of existence.
The five niyamas the focus of this series ~ are constructive tools for cultivating happiness and self-confidence; the opportunity to practice and live in the balance of each of these arises in almost every moment day.
The five Niyamas are practices to be nurtured and cultivated. They will remain with us throughout our lives taking us ever deeper into the subtle realms of our being, moving us closer to the stillness inside.
The Niyamas as spiritual and practical teachings lead us beyond the body (in our activity and our asanas) and our mind (in meditation). Without them, samadhi ~ a state of joyful calm, or even of rapture and beatitude, in which one maintains full mental alertness and acuity ~ would be an impossible dream.
I also invite to check out my 5-part series on the Yamas next. These are moral disciplines that transcend all world religions as guiding us to live of our light and our highest self. I will leave links for this series in the description.
In this episode I cite and also quote directly from Deborah Adele’s book: The Yamas and Niyamas. Exploring Yoga’s Ethical Practice. Her wise words guide us into the practical and the spiritual as we explore the significance of the focus of this episode and the niyama santosha or “contentment” as well as “delight, happiness, joy.”
Santosha invites us into contentment by taking refuge in a calm centre, opening our hearts in gratitude for what we do have, and practising the paradox of ‘not seeking’.
'Not seeking' as not needing to be seeking and grasping whilst missing out on what is right in front of us ~ and often what is pure perfection.
While there is always a place and a need to look forward and plan the future, it is equally important to measure this with the balance of enjoying what is right here and now and directly in front of us. This is how we cultivate contentment for ‘what is’.
Along with getting ready for the next thing we seek, we tend to look at people’s lives and then decide what is missing from our own, rather than appreciate what we have.
When we compare ourselves to others and envy them, we move ourselves into a state of lack and disappointment. This moves us further away from feeling contentment, complete, and whole.
Contentment arises out of acceptance—of life, of ourselves, and of whatever life is offering to us in the present.
If you live the practice of Santosha ~ life would instantly be happier, easier, better, and with far more freedom to enjoy ‘what is’.
When we are content, we are happy. Thus—and here is the practice of this niyama—through the power of contentment, happiness becomes our choice.
Please join me in this beautiful practice. Send me a note! Let me know how you are living the practice of santosha in your life.
Sending you great 💜 love...
Sharing the wisdom and beauty of divine love with you...
Namaste!
