September is here. School is back on. Autumn is 3 weeks away. This has always been a time of change for me. I've found myself so dysregulated lately, the last week particularly, and I have seen it as another opportunity to explore. Why am I so stressed out? My daughter is going back to school. … Continue reading Changes.

It is ok to feel peaceful.
That’s it. That’s the message for today. You can feel good. You can feel regulated and full of Awareness and full of the joyful calm that comes from knowing that you are an integral aspect of your Universe. The state of regulated Awareness is in contrast to Survival Ego- which is that panicky place that … Continue reading It is ok to feel peaceful.
For Nurturers.
Heart. I am sitting wearing noise-cancelling headphones, next to the running clothes washer. I have been awake for hours, and off and on for hours before that. Waking up and meeting needs and having soothing conversations and interactions. Praying each time to show up in kindness- again and again. I feel numb- like my body … Continue reading For Nurturers.
The Yellow Door.
There was a situation yesterday with the front door of my home. I should clarify; I felt a situation yesterday with the front door that I chose to paint yellow. I was laying on the living room sofa with the windows and door open. Some men from down the street were walking their dog past … Continue reading The Yellow Door.

I can sit with this feeling … Continue reading Repair.

Thoughts About Unconditional Love.
Love. Without condition. Without exception. Without timeframe. Without prerequisite. Without judgement. Without fear. Without limit. Without exhaustion. Without end. Without distraction. Without interruption. Who benefits when I don't love myself unconditionally? Who benefits when I do love myself unconditionally? What does unconditional love look like to me? What does unconditional love allow me to express? … Continue reading Thoughts About Unconditional Love.
Release.
The full moon has passed and it feels like time to focus on release. I personally don't love calling it release because it implies that I judge and cast away. I don't do that, but I acknowledge a narrowing of my awareness to what is truly crucial in this present moment. Leading up to the … Continue reading Release.
Loss.
Energy can't be created or destroyed just converted into another form. It's the first law of Thermodynamics. The Law of Conservation of Energy. I forget this often. Every time something feels like a waste. Every time something I've invested in leaves. Every time I feel like my energy has been drained. Every time energy feels … Continue reading Loss.
