Wholeness…such a big word to embrace. What is it? Wholeness is everything that is contained within, present and acknowledged to be part of or held within the space of something: a whole day, a whole book, a whole loaf, a whole life.

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 […]
Exploring the qualities and energies of the Healer as a universal archetype is like embarking on a very long sea voyage. An odyssey that moves us past the edges of our oceans, through time and space, into a flickering cosmos of moving images where life, light and darkness swirl. Like spiral galaxies gathering all of […]
Do you remember, in the early 80’s, when the illustrator Mary Engelbreit created her art and declared this truth, “It is good to be Queen”?

Are you sensitive, intuitive or creative? This is not a trick question… How about highly sensitive, deeply intuitive and /or extremely creative? Do you recognize yourself in any of these questions: Are you attuned to reading and/or feeling subtle energies? Do you pick up on thoughts, or know what others are going to share before they do? Do […]
How can I be soft in the strength that I am? How can I nurture the energies that I hold in my hands? This is important. I mean really important! How do you make space for nesting and nurturing, tending your self? There is a specific energy that you are experiencing right now. Stop to consider what […]
