Will I remember this morning and all of its non-silence? The birds, the hum of traffic in the distance, the dripping of the water condensing on everything? Will I remember the cool humidity? The way the air felt heavy and full of nourishment with all of its spring-time scent and moisture? Will I remember the … Continue reading Will I Remember?
Show Up.
It was definitely feeling a little '2017' this morning. Out before the path was cleared. Out before the people. Out before my survival-self could talk me out of it. Out with the deer and coyote.Show up and engage in all circumstances - even the best and the worst- and nothing will take you by surprise … Continue reading Show Up.
Antidote
My antidote to being frenetic indoors is to sit in stillness outdoors. Barely well enough dressed for conditions and sitting with as much direct contact with the ground as possible. With a cup of coffee. I sit and stay in that minor discomfort for as long as possible. The act solves unsolvable problems and it … Continue reading Antidote
Overflowing Abundant Nurturing.
By nurturing ourselves, we nurture others. Make a little too much of a nurturing soup so it can also nurture another. Keep sleep time quiet for yourself and others will also rest well. A clean environment is nurturing for everybody. We are able to face uncertain experiences and see ourselves in others only when we … Continue reading Overflowing Abundant Nurturing.
Unpopular.
I have an idea that’s potentially unpopular. The idea is that life is uncomfortable.We are 100% divine and also, 100% physical bodies. We cannot experience either of these aspects in complete separation from the other. What this means is that we don’t get a break from doing the basic-need stuff that the physical body requires- … Continue reading Unpopular.
Befuddlement.
I’ve been wanting to create a piece of writing so profound that it inspires me to get out and reinvent my entire connection to the Universe. To choose a deliberate action and forge a path that could only be illuminated by the greater forces outside of myself. It’s not happening. The inspiration hasn’t flashed through … Continue reading Befuddlement.
Shifting Sands.
Another day, another meditative journey. This time I went in with an intention. My Lammas practice indicated that I need to do some exploration into the idea of prosperity. So that’s what I did. I began as I do and found myself in the desert. I am wearing a white and billowy long dress, but … Continue reading Shifting Sands.
Praying For Rain.
I meditated and asked some questions. A woman’s energy responded- very feminine, motherly. I felt a pressure in my forehead- third eye- my indicator for Gaia. She responded to me. I asked for rain to ease my suffering. She responded that it wasn’t possible to perform party tricks like that. I countered: “Am I not … Continue reading Praying For Rain.
Growing A Garden- Cultivating the Inner Experience
I meditated the other day and asked whatever Universal Awareness is out there to bring me insight. Nothing is particularly wrong with life in this present moment, but there is just a feeling of being unsettled. Like knowing that a sink-full of dishes needs to be done or that a pile of laundry has accumulated … Continue reading Growing A Garden- Cultivating the Inner Experience
One Word After Another.
I’m here. I understand the entire point of me being here is to experience, explore, and be so curious about what is happening around, and what it inspires within, me. I got a perfect new pen and it is beautiful. It is the type of small gift to myself that changes my entire experience. I … Continue reading One Word After Another.
