Birthing Your Inner Hero

“The world is a dangerous place, not because of those who do bad things, but because of those who look on and do nothing.” – Albert Einstein

Picture this. A black man waiting near the subway with his two young daughters sees a white man fall into the path of an oncoming train. The man knows there is not enough time to move the victim to safety, so he jumps onto the track, pushes the victim between the rails, and covers the victim’s body with his own while the train passes over them with only a couple of inches to spare.

What action would you have taken had you been the bystander?

I don’t know what I would have done. But, I do believe that each of us has the potential to perform acts of heroism!

And—the world is full of opportunities that call to us to birth our Inner Hero.

A key component of knowing when and how to birth our Inner Hero, according to Dr. Philip Zimbardo, founder of the Heroic Imagination Project, is to form a network of support so people have the resources to bring their heroic impulses to life. You can read more about how Dr. Zimbardo is creating a network by visiting www.heroicimagination.org

If you're looking to birth your Inner Hero, another option is to focus on growing your spirituality--especially in the company of other spiritual "seekers." I am collaborating with life coach Karen Latvala to offer a women's spirituality group.which will meet March 1st at 7 p.m. mountain time.
The group will include a short meditation, sharing our journeys, and talking about visions for a better world. It is non-denominational and is about our personal experiences. There is no fee, but love donations are welcomed. If there is interest, we will continue monthly.
If you would like to register, you can contact me at 719-942-3229 (or coach@tamaraherl.com) or Karen at 719-942-4758 (Karen@consciouslifequest.com).
If neither of these resources call to you, I encourage you to find a network SOMEWHERE that will inspire and support you as you birth your Inner Hero!
