It’s no wonder spiritual and metaphysical topics have a bad reputation because of so much misinformation, disinformation, dogma, wishful thinking, and myths. This is unfortunate because it prevents people from realizing how helpful spiritual information and techniques can be. Below is a list of debunked myths based on my long-term empirical research.

. “To love oneself is the beginning of a lifelong romance.”—Oscar Wilde . I used to be quite idealistic about love and relationships.

The law of attraction can be a wonderful tool to help you react to and get the most out of your fate.
