Permission To Be Imperfect
There are so many ways to get distracted by our daily struggles To give in…to frustration and emotion To the energy in motion we, or others, generate To capsize, just when we finally get our boat to float When, after days of going nowhere fast, we finally catch wind Only to wobble, then topple over Because we found another hole or tear in our tattered sail There will always be another inconvenience Another limitation Not enough time, energy, money Another shortcoming or shortfall A feeling of...
Your Place in the World
When culture does not nourish you the Soul's food can only be gotten by standing apart away from at the edge of the forest, solitary when the sense of Belonging, that arises from kinship with the world around you, crumbles when the places and faces you find yourself in, around cannot see or hear you because they cannot reflect what they don't see in themselves you feel adrift estranged from a stranger in a world of strangers slowly, then, now it is necessary to re-member yourself back into the...
“We Are Here”
This week, I was prompted to share a message from Spirit in a new medium – as a recording. On a personal level, even though over the years I’ve recorded hundreds of tracks for clients, lectures, and audio books, audio often feels less smooth for me than writing, and I feel more inclined for my conditioning to kick up. Yet I was encouraged to do it anyhow. So, if you are empathic and pick up on any of my insecurities, say “this is not mine” to release them. 🙂 That said, please enjoy this 21...
Divine Intervention, Reversed
When my 8-year-old niece came to visit last month, we took her to one of Oahu’s top snorkel spots; the ocean life is magnificent there (we had even heard several people talking about seeing an octopus). A natural mermaid, she had just seen the movie My Octopus Teacher and so was beyond excited. Yet when it was time to get in, she became extremely frustrated at being unable to put on her snorkel mask. She wanted so desperately to get underneath, and breathe. (Don’t we all?!) Bless her, she was...
Interview with MysticMag.com: Awareness is Guidance
I recently had the pleasure of being interviewed by an online site called MysticMag. While it primarily advises users on psychic services, something I typically don't resonate with, they also do a great service by introducing their audience to a variety of healers and healing modalities on their blog website. The questions asked were personal and conversational, so answering them was really fun for me. If you'd like to get to know me a little better: What has, and continues to shape my...
Waterfall Healing Remedy
Several times during this Aquarius Full Moon past weekend I found myself standing under cold water. First, in response to listening to someone recall being in a lightning storm and empathically picking up on it; suddenly I felt electricity run through my body and it was so uncomfortable that I ran to take a cold shower. This, and grounding, helped. Second, full of mysterious congestion and sneezing (which can happen to me when I'm over-stimulated and overly tired), I asked Spirit what to do. I...
No Reason For This
stop seeking perfection; it doesn't exist --even the perfecting of your own understanding there is no "better than this" better mother, lover, partner more successful healer, teacher, friend there is only: What feels good now to me, right now? there is nothing broken in your life nothing wrong with you, or another there is only: This isn't working for me in the way I like; what do I want to do about it? there is no magic pill or formula no cure for the Mystery that ails you no explanation for...
You Can Always Reconnect
This summer, I have been beach-reading a number of books from Gothic Romance novelist Victoria Holt, which is probably why into last night’s dream appeared a Governess (!). When she came to me, instead of dressing me in the modern fashions, as she did for the other girls also residing in this beautiful yet eerie Big House, she performed energy work, while declaring in a cockney English accent, “Ooh, this one is vulnerable; we must protect her. Ooh, she awakens in such a state! Out of sorts,...
Forgive Yourself, Quickly
I’ve learned to forgive myself For the ways I haven’t showed up for me For the times I’ve overlooked and ignored the nagging feeling, the nausea, the disappointment For all of the times that I didn’t make the time to feel - to process, to become more aware of, to honor my feelings For all of the times I misinterpreted what I was really feeling I’ve learned to forgive myself For all of the stories I’ve ever told myself, wholly believed, and then suffered For jumping to conclusions, not...
Your Golden Shadow
Friends, The Leo planets are upon us (now Venus, Mars; soon Sun). 'Twas never a more ideal time to own your Brilliance, Beauty and Power! When I was in my early twenties, I recall watching a couple who lived across the street of my apartment. They were so beautiful, and they were clearly in so much love – the authentic, grounded kind of love I wanted to have one day. Since their house and garden faced directly across my window, I’d settle in and watch on more than one occasion, watching their...
