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
Gratitude Vs. Reverence.
I find gratitude a dead-end (see my post “I’m so grateful.”). I have used it as a dead-end, anyway. A way to stop exploring something. I stop looking deeper into the wonder. ‘I’m grateful for (blank). Thank goodness it’s awesome. The end.’ It’s a relief it’s here; a one-time gift. When I engage with something … Continue reading Gratitude Vs. Reverence.
The Present Moment
"The Present MomentNothing missing. Nothing extra. Simultaneously nothing and everything."Twitter post 25 October 2021 I've been exploring some aspects of my Universe lately. What I've come back to over and over again is that the Present Moment is our point of entry into a life beyond our conditioned responses. Bring your awareness to where you … Continue reading The Present Moment

As a philosophy, it treats breakage and repair as part of the history of an object, rather than something to disguise.Wikipedia My mindfulness allows me to reconcile the fact that I feel broken. I can sit with this feeling … Continue reading Repair.
Self-Discipline.
I've struggled with routine and self-discipline for much of my life. I was often reminded of it by the people around me. Lazy. Absent-minded. Forgetful. Scatter-brained. Irresponsible. Undisciplined. At the end of the day undisciplined is probably the best descriptor of what was going on. Discipline for me evokes ideas of tasks that are militant, … Continue reading Self-Discipline.
2022.
Happy New Year! This year I am committing to more writing and have a bit of a plan. Each month I am going to work through a wellness topic, explore different aspects, and hopefully discover some beliefs and habits that can be cleared and replaced with something more in-line with where I am right now. … Continue reading 2022.
How Can I Best Show Up?
When you show up for something consistently, the activity becomes a comfortable place to be and space for expansion and wonder. When I was running long distances, I would get settled in my pace and I was able to ponder creative insights and solutions to all of my daily issues. Currently I have a journaling … Continue reading How Can I Best Show Up?
So… What Do I Want?
You can have whatever or be whatever you want. That's cool. So... What do I want? I have struggled with that question for so much of my life, but I know the truth of it is that I did not struggle when I was young. Very young. I grew up with several siblings. I remember … Continue reading So… What Do I Want?
