Being the Weirdo in the Dirt
..See, at the time, that section of Southie was still “in transition.” (If you know what that means, you know what that means.) There were piles of dirt, debris, and old ghosts of violence and drug addiction everywhere—and me. I’d wake up on Sundays ( when it was warm), walk down to the Projects construction site, and sit in the old dirt to do my spiritual work.
Did all this shit really happen? Yup and Hollywood was going to make a movie about it all…..oh well.
Many decades ago, my wife and I had a badass loft condo in old time South Boston— aka “Southie”.
It was a great two-floor unit in a converted old school brick building, with 30-foot ceilings and 20-foot windows.
Our living room?
Half of the old school auditorium stage, complete with side curtain entrance. Real character. Right around the corner from the unit was the “D Street” housing project, which—at the time—was barely hanging on. It looked and felt forgotten, in the buildings and in the eyes of the people living there. You’d think people in charge would know by now that “affordable housing” doesn’t have to feel like a punishment for those living there. Eventually—after forever had passed—they finally started tearing down the worst parts and building new units.
New structures, fresh paint.
Shiny on the outside.
That’s where I came in.
See, at the time, that section of Southie was still “in transition.” (If you know what that means, you know what that means.) There were piles of dirt, debris, and old ghosts of violence and drug addiction everywhere—and me. I’d wake up on Sundays ( when it was warm), walk down to the D street Projects construction site, and sit in the old dirt to do my spiritual work. This wasn’t just a hobby. I knew of and felt the energy embedded in that land, I knew many people called residents in that area “D street dirt balls” and they were not, they are just people who accepted the energies dumped on them, people that needed some help, some way out of the loop.
Why Me?
☘️ Well, I was raised in the Mary Ellen McCormack Housing projects, right there in Good Ol’ Southie.
I know the frequency of depression, fear, addiction, and rage that soaks into walls and sidewalks of Housing Projects.
You can’t just slap some new stucco over that vibe and pretend the past didn’t happen. So, yeah, I sat in the dirt. Sometimes holding it like a lotus flower. Sometimes talking to it. Always working on the old energy contained in each molecule. And yeah, I got heckled while doing so. “Fucking weirdo.” “Yuppy fag nut.” “Fucking fruit loop.” where some of the old energies that were cast my way while trying to make the place better for all….
Gotta love old Southie.
(Side note: I was called a “long-haired gay boy” back in the 80s when my hair was sexy rock star length when I lived there as a metalhead semi bass playing kid. Then when I moved back in the 2000s with short hair, I was called “A fucking Yuppy.” I still don’t know what hair length would make my fellow Irish Bostonians happy.)
Anyway, weekend after weekend, I showed up. I did the work.
And when I felt the land was humming again, I left, and it was done.
And then something weird happened.
Or maybe something predictable (In my world)
A ripple started.
The whole area energy shifted.
The Seaport District in Southie—five minutes from us—exploded with growth.
Real estate prices skyrocketed in Southie. The vibe changed. People changed. It was like the land exhaled and let go. So the job was done and Helena and I both felt at the exact same time that it was then time to go and we sold our loft for asking price, no inspection wanted, almost instant occupancy after listing.
That, my friends, is what good karma smells like.
So we moved.
Helena put her finger on a map and said “Here.” So, we went “there.”
And we’re still there.
Why am I telling you all this?
Because being yourself matters.
Being a “fucking weirdo” if that’s what it takes—matters.
I’ve spent decades doing this work, owning a business with my wife in one of the most expensive business rent areas in Boston, where we did transformative work on Newbury Street (first block—aka, the fancy ass part). We helped people transform their lives, their health, their businesses, their spiritual wiring. And yeah, I thought it was all bullshit once, too.
I saw it happening in real time.
Stuff that shouldn’t happen. Stuff that changed everything. So before you write any of this off—before you call me a fruit loop—know this: Helena and I are just like you. We just decided decades ago to stop waiting for anyone else and start being the change. For decades, we’ve worked our energy, our spirits, and our asses off so that the “wild stuff” can happen IRL.
And it does happen. All the time.
So if you’re ready to shift something—yourself, your life, your world—buy one of our programs.
Not because we need it. But because you might.
With love from the dirt,
Brian
Harnessing the Power of E.F.V: Energy, Frequency, Vibration
Dive into the profound impact of Nikola Tesla's insights on energy, frequency, and vibration, and discover how South Boston's spiritual healer Brian Collins applied these principles at his Newbury Street office to transform lives for decades. Explore the intersection of science, spirituality, and healing.
Nikola Tesla, a visionary beyond his time, once stated, "If you want to find the secrets of the universe, think in terms of energy, frequency and vibration."
This profound insight not only revolutionized our understanding of physical reality but also opened the doors to an array of spiritual and healing practices. Among those leading the charge in this transformative realm is Brian Collins, a renowned spiritual healer whose work at his Newbury Street office in Boston’s prestigious Back Bay has garnered jaw-dropping results.
Tesla’s emphasis on energy, frequency, and vibration (EFV) lays the foundational principles for many modern technologies and healing methods. Energy, in its purest form, animates our daily lives and the universe at large. Frequency, the rate at which energy vibrates, defines the myriad ways this energy manifests, from the colors we see to the emotions we feel. Vibration, the rhythmic movement of energy, connects every particle in the universe, serving as the universal language of creation and transformation.

For decades, Brian Collins has been at the forefront of applying Tesla’s EFV principles to his spiritual healing practice. His method, aptly named "EFV keys," operates on the belief that by understanding and manipulating these three core elements, one can harmonize the human body's energies. At his office, Collins has helped countless individuals and businesses achieve a greater state of well-being through his specialized approach. Clients that visited Collins' Newbury Street office often reported transformative experiences. By having Collins realign their energy, frequency, and vibration, individuals have found relief from chronic ailments, experienced heightened emotional states, and have even seen profound changes in their personal and professional lives. Testimonials often highlight an enhanced sense of clarity and purpose, a testament to the efficacy of Collins’ healing techniques.
The Science and Spirituality of EFV:
While Tesla’s insights were rooted in the physical sciences, their application extends far beyond.
The interplay of energy, frequency, and vibration forms a bridge between the tangible and the spiritual. In the hands of healers like Collins, these principles are not just theoretical concepts but practical tools that promote real-world healing and transformation. The legacy of Nikola Tesla’s exploration of energy, frequency, and vibration lives on through the work of spiritual healers like Brian Collins. His ability to harness these elements and apply them to healing is more than just a nod to Tesla’s genius—it’s a continuation of a journey towards understanding the deeper mechanics of the universe. As we delve further into this intriguing interplay of EFV, we not only unlock the mysteries of the cosmos but also empower ourselves to lead more balanced and harmonious lives.
This exploration of Tesla’s principles through the lens of spiritual healing invites us to view our own challenges and aspirations in terms of energy, frequency, and vibration. It’s a vivid reminder of the interconnectedness of everything in the universe and our ability to influence our own lives through these fundamental forces.
“Brian has an excellent bullshit detector and can be witheringly sarcastic about commercial or self-important promoters of sacred wisdom. The world is redeemed by masters like Brian who, out of compassion for sentient beings, share freely the wisdom that they have attained. My life has been immeasurably enriched by our encounter.””
Turning a Blind Eye: The Perils of Ignoring the Truth
Confirmation bias: We often seek information that confirms our existing beliefs, leading us to overlook or dismiss evidence that contradicts our views. This cognitive bias can make it difficult to objectively evaluate information and recognize the truth……
In today's fast-paced, information-driven world, it's becoming increasingly easy to fall into the trap of ignoring the truth.
With so much information at our fingertips, we often struggle to differentiate between fact and fiction, sometimes opting to accept the latter due to confirmation bias or other psychological factors. In this blog post, we'll examine the consequences of ignoring the truth, explore the reasons behind this behavior, and discuss ways to confront and embrace reality, even when it's uncomfortable.
The Dangers of Ignoring the Truth
Eroding trust: When we ignore the truth, we erode trust in ourselves and our relationships. Deceit, misinformation, and denial can damage personal connections and contribute to a breakdown of communication.
Poor decision-making: Basing decisions on falsehoods or incomplete information can lead to negative outcomes, both personally and professionally. Inaccurate information can undermine our ability to make informed choices, potentially resulting in unintended consequences and regrets.
Stifling growth: Ignoring the truth can hinder personal growth and self-improvement. By refusing to face reality, we may miss valuable opportunities to learn from our mistakes and evolve as individuals.
Perpetuating ignorance: When we choose to overlook the truth, we contribute to a culture of ignorance. This can perpetuate harmful myths, stereotypes, and misinformation that negatively impact society as a whole.
Why Do We Ignore the Truth?
Confirmation bias: We often seek information that confirms our existing beliefs, leading us to overlook or dismiss evidence that contradicts our views. This cognitive bias can make it difficult to objectively evaluate information and recognize the truth.
Cognitive dissonance: When faced with information that conflicts with our beliefs or values, we may experience psychological discomfort. To resolve this tension, we may choose to ignore the truth, opting for a more comfortable, albeit flawed, narrative.
Fear of change: Accepting the truth can sometimes require us to change our beliefs, behaviors, or circumstances. This change can be intimidating, prompting us to cling to familiar falsehoods instead of embracing the unknown.
Groupthink: The desire to conform to the opinions and beliefs of our social group can sometimes lead us to ignore the truth. Groupthink can stifle critical thinking and prevent us from questioning the status quo.
Confronting and Embracing the Truth
Cultivate critical thinking skills: Develop the ability to objectively analyze information and evaluate its validity. Ask questions, seek diverse perspectives, and approach new information with an open mind.
Embrace vulnerability: Accept that acknowledging the truth may involve admitting mistakes or confronting uncomfortable emotions. Embrace vulnerability as an opportunity for growth and self-improvement.
Challenge your beliefs: Regularly reassess your beliefs and values to ensure they are grounded in truth. Be willing to update your views when presented with new, credible information.
Seek diverse perspectives: Engage in conversations with individuals who hold different opinions and beliefs. This exposure can help broaden your understanding of complex issues and challenge your preconceived notions.
Practice self-reflection: Regularly examine your thoughts, feelings, and actions to identify areas where you may be ignoring the truth. Use self-reflection as an opportunity to confront and address these blind spots.
Ignoring the truth can have significant consequences on our personal and professional lives, as well as on society as a whole.
By understanding the reasons behind this behavior and actively working to confront and embrace reality, we can foster personal growth, make better-informed decisions, and contribute to a more enlightened and compassionate world. Recognizing the value of truth and striving for intellectual honesty will help us build stronger connections, navigate challenges, and lead more authentic, rewarding lives in synergy with all of creation.
