  • * Needs and Kindness

    “May we all recognize our own needs and have compassion for ourselves. May we all see beyond our own needs and have compassion for the needs of others.” These words came to me this morning.  As human beings we all need acceptance of who we are, to belong and feel loved, and to express ourselves…

  • * Pondering – accepting what is

    I woke up this morning pondering how it is so hard to accept what is. Our brains say – yes I get it. We may even bring it into mindful awareness every day through meditation or yoga. We think we have it handled, and then … out of the blue we find ourselves getting impatient,…

  • Centering – A Mindful Moment

    Come pause a while with this lovely poem meditation from Shobhan Richard Faulds. As you read it notice how your mind settles…… Here. Right here, right now, bring your mind to this place and time. Invite it, even if it resists, to sit and witness what it is to be alive. Let there be no…

  • * Inspiration – Let it Go

    Let go of the ways you thought life would unfold: the holding of plans or dreams or expectations – Let it all go. Save your strength to swim with the tide. The choice to fight what is here before you now will  only result in struggle, fear, and desperate attempts to flee from the very energy…

  • * Wake up Peeps

      If you are one of those people that notice this photo can’t be real because: (a) penguins and polar bears live on the opposite ends of the earth or (b) penguins can’t hold cymbals or (c) the polar bear is just pretending to sleep …. Then this post is especially for you! Wake up…

  • * Tao Inspiration – the universe is its own

    By taking control of the universe, would you improve it? The universe is its own, and no one can better it. Its complexity is deep and unimaginable. It cannot be harnessed. Try to manipulate it and it will eventually slip away. Try to keep it and it will eventually spoil. Sometimes tension, sometimes ease; Sometimes…

  • * Inspiration – Waiting for Safety

    Fern, furled, a question mark waving in the wind, holding to the fetal curl and the safety of the winter womb. Nothing not the gentle kiss of sun, nor stream voice, calling can coax that frond to unfurl one single moment before it does. Danna Faulds from “Go In and In” Poems from the Heart…

  • * Allow Life to Unfold

    Allow life to unfold without trying to force anything. It doesn’t mean doing nothing and expecting everything to come to you. Stay alive and be alert to each moment. Keep your consciousness raised. Expect the very best of yourself and the world around you. And trust that all will be well. This is how you…
