I’ve been listening to John O’Donahue lately, the late poet mystic, seems to be calling me home. This is the slice of wisdom and wonder that met me today and so as I prepare to walk out the door to visit a sacred meditation garden, one of my favorite silent spaces, I share this quote […]
I am sharing some heart-full thoughts with the tribe today. I think of us all gathering together at moments like this and know that much of this post might apply to any day or time in life. But today it is this that comes… As the sun goes down on this day, make space for […]

FEEL = Focused Experience with Emotional Literacy I […]
Recently I was asked to write this article and I was surprised to find it difficult, the hard stuff is always complicated. Rubbing up against grief is always about touching a deep place that may carry fragments of pain…even when healing has happened the pain can still be felt. It is illuminating to feel and face, reconnect […]
Clearing a path, seeing through and making space… There is something special about a time of claiming and making space, this year it is claiming the time to enjoy the crisp weather. Getting outside to feel the breeze. The sunsets are beautiful…and night is falling dark earlier and earlier. I find that I want extra space […]
As a child I went to an extraordinary dance school. It was called the Temple of the Wings, a sacred space near Berkeley, California, where I grew up. It was a magical building and grounds, classical with a central open piazza, 30 foot columns, surrounded by gardens and flanked by studio spaces and a private home. My […]
