Long time no post. So let’s do dis.. A reboot. Without the daily bloggings, which have been lagging the past few months, I‘m feeling kind of incomplete. Thoughts, feelings and experiences are starting to fade, unprocessed. And.. I miss the writing. I’ll be re-picking up the daily posts, and hopping back into the archives to… Read More Rebootski

Are there times where you, looking back, learned that changes you initially resisted turned out to be just what was needed to create room for something.. important?

It gets better. Something good to remember – especially for things that ‘take their time’. I love listening to podcasts. Usually I take the time to tune in on my way to/from ballet class, or while I’m doing administration work and chores at home.

I feel it’s time for a bit of space.   Just time.   Just space.   I have promised myself to keep this board empty until I return. Let‘s… Read More A Clean Slate

A reminder that everything is interdependent, and how all relationships (to our environment, to everything/everyone one that is part of it, as… Read More Interconnection

If you’re reading this.. give yourself a little re-set.   Look up, or out the window, see the sky.   Take a deep breath.   Oxygenizing your brain. Relaxing your nervous system. Lowering your blood pressure. Softening your body. Softening your mind. Listening. Sensing. Calm.   Take another deep breath..       There you… Read More Take a Breath
