  • * Soft Landings and Reflections

    It is taking me some time to fully transition into being home. Stepping out of my daily routine and into an inspiring and nourishing environment feeds the soul… And it brings a new perspective on things I have taken for granted. It feels like I am seeing things with new eyes. So interesting on so…

  • * Back from Kripalu Yoga Training

      I thought I needed to disconnect. To let go. Gosh – that sounds pretty earnest, doesn’t it. I realize that so many of us hold on to the need to disconnect so much… What I found was a real  opportunity to step back… and then take some delicious time for myself to help me…

  • * Life is Like … the sky

    When we look at the sky we see clouds and blue spaciousness. Sometimes there is no blue, but there is a luminosity behind the clouds. Eckhart Tolle says that in life we learn to identify ourselves as the clouds. But we are more than just the clouds. Clouds represent our thoughts and senses. Yet we…

  • * Inspiration – Puppy Love

    I love the snippets of wisdom from Eckhart Tolle that come into my inbox every week.   “To love is to recognize yourself in an other” ~~~ If they are beautiful they are reflecting back your inner beauty You are beautiful just the way you are Embrace all aspects of yourself Find True love ❤…

  • * Breathing to Let Go

    Every inhale brings in new life, nourishment and energy. Every exhale is a release and letting go. Our breath reflects the ebb and flow of life itself. This quote stood out for me today: “Sometimes you don’t realize the weight of something you’ve been carrying until you feel the weight of its release.” When you…

  • * Your Breath is How you Live your Life

    Do you know how are you breathing right now? Take a moment and simply notice your breath. Perhaps place your hand on your navel and the other above your heart.  Notice the movement as you inhale and exhale. We breathe in and we breathe out. And for the most part we take it completely for…

  • * Inspiration – Here and Now

    “We have forgotten what rocks, plants and animals know. We have forgotten how to be – to be still, to be ourselves, to be where life is, Here and Now” Eckhart Tolle From “Guardians of Being: spiritual teachings from our dog and cats” with art by Patrick McDonnell. This is one of my favorite bedside…

  • * Dealing with Stress and my Inner Teenager

    On Tuesday I had a stressful day. A dip in the highs and lows of life day. It wasn’t surprising. I had some concerning news that took the wind out of my sails, and I developed a pressure cooker of a sinus headache. I was in a trough. I know how my mind and body…

  • * Wake up and Be Curious

    Sometimes the best ideas come to me just before I wake up in the morning. This morning I decided I will have a day where I am curious. People who are curious tend to: ♦ Transform everyday tasks into the interesting and find the extraordinary in the ordinary ♦ Engage more in the world and tune…

  • Our Inner and Outer Purpose of Life

    I am inspired this morning by a post from Ivon over at Teacher as Transformer. He talks about working in the world from inner inspiration. I love that! In our explorations of our purpose in life, we often think we have to focus on what to do next. We ask ” What should I do…

  • The “Maybe” Parable From Alan Watts – Video

    Delighted to share this Alan Watts video and story from Eve at Children of Light! In the complexities of life, its impossible to tell what is good or bad, because we never know what the consequences might be. Make time to pause and reflect on this in a Middle Ground moment. Val x
