    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.

    What I Think of Me is My Business

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

    Choice Point

    We have within us an ancient mind and a future one. What if humanity is at a choice point where we must choose between two different paths?

    She's With Me

    I don’t remember when I discovered her. She emerged one day sitting in front of me, watching me.

    Wandering

    I've been on an accelerated course discovering myself. At times, I feel confused and shaken when I compare my insides to other's outsides.

    Holding the Light

    It’s so easy to believe what we see, feel or were taught when there is so much more. Sometimes it takes someone else holding a light for us.

    Introspection

    Using introspection, we can maintain an interior monologue of an "I" talking with "me". We can say "I drive myself crazy." But who's me & I?

    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.

    I Believe You

    Those three words are so helpful to hear when I’m struggling with self-acceptance. As a child I wasn’t believed.

    Space for Wonder

    In that envelope of time when I just wake up, eyes still closed on the edge of sleep, I am in my special time when I ask questions.

    Intentions

    When the story of our past holds so much trauma it blurs the present, one may feel they are swimming upstream. There's more to us than ego.

    Generational Circles

    I chose to call close my inner child. I'm 8 years old, standing in the yard. If I had the opportunity to speak to her, what would I say?

    Sacred Vessels

    When I listened to reflections, I felt myself become an observer of me listening. I live more with the dualism of being human and spirit.

    Knock Knock

    Every time I ignore the knock knock, my reservoir empties more. But I found a way to ground by doing forest bathing.

    Tuning Forks

    I was taught that the only things that are real are those that can be measured by instruments. Nowhere was I taught to sense energy.

    Pebble in the Water

    I fell in love with poetry. There was one poem that was my favorite. I read it often. I knew it by heart. It popped up a lot in my life.

    Life gives us opportunities and some of them appear to be safe and some not. Some decisions lead nowhere and cause me pain.

    Three Breaths, One Commitment

    365 days ago, I made a commitment to myself. Every morning, I would sit in silence. I missed community. So began my Zoom meditation journey.
