    Suffering Is Optional

    I’ve been working with a healer over the past 2 months to help me clear suffering from my body. Pain is inevitable, suffering is optional.

    The Wonders of Vision

    Sometimes I want to close my eyes to the hurt and pain, to the disrespect and the distraction. Sometimes I want to look through other’s eyes

    Flow

    I’m living in a body that holds memories no longer useful to me. What do I do with the memories? I have anger. What do I do with the anger?

    Wisdom Whispers

    From an eagle’s view, we humans weathered a tsunami breaking us open. Some of us picked up the pieces, others blamed. It's a choice.

    Our Higher Self is the True Mother

    I kept having a dream last night, my children suffering. It's so difficult to feel helpless when a loved one suffers. Easier to blame myself

    I was raised understanding my job was to be nice above all else. That translated into forgetting about me. And to fibromyalgia.

    Pupils Learn

    My greatest pivotal moment came when I viewed myself as a pupil of life rather than a victim. I still struggle with it but I'm learning.

    Lean in to Support

    I can’t make sense of the struggles that befall people. My life changed because I found lessons in everything I experienced.

    A New Life

    At that moment I could finally feel it and I realized I would never, alone, fill that bottomless hole inside me. A visualization helped.

    Breathing in Community

    Life in this Pandemic teaches me on a daily basis to practice presence. A feeling of support, togetherness, and trust goes a long way.

    Do I stay informed and take action or do I focus on my inner life? Is there a way to do both?

    Testing my Wings

    I have lost my ability to sing. I wonder if my tender emotions have been part of it. So I went on a retreat to learn to love myself.
