welcomes
your inner Self


This week at InnerSelf, we explore the art of reconnection—within ourselves, with others, and with the world around us.

Whether it’s rethinking how we define happiness, unlearning economic myths, or daring to be better neighbors, the common thread is clear: our healing begins when we stop, reflect, and consciously choose a new way forward. From walking barefoot on the Earth to unpacking political deception, each piece invites you to reconnect—with purpose, with love, and with truth.

Scroll down for the new articles and videos that were added to the InnerSelf.com website this week. And please visit our YouTube channel for new videos...and subscribe to our YouTube channel. Thank you.

Wishing you enjoyable insightful reading, and of course a wonder-full, joy-full, health-full, and loving week. ...with Peace, Love, Gratitude, and Joy,

Why the Current Inflation Numbers Are Misleading

Author: Robert Jennings, InnerSelf.com

Inflation is supposedly under control at around 2.7 percent. The talking heads say we’re heading back to safe economic ground. But if you’re staring at a $150 grocery bill or wondering why your phone case just cost you 25 percent more, you already know something’s off. The… Continue reading

America Ain’t No Casino: But He Plays It Like One (original song)

Author: Robert Jennings, InnerSelf.com
