Writing from the Heart
Everything I write is, first and foremost, for me.It is both a privilege and a luxury. I write to heal, to understand;to shift emotions out of my system. I write to move energy; to have a thought move from my brain, down through my arm and into my hand and my fingers, and flow through…

How to be …
Lead with the body not with the head. Be 100% present to all that is said. Listen intently, follow the thread. Trust in the process, forge a new path ahead. Make friends with your life, play your trump card. Find your tribe, and love them hard. Hold them close, in high regard. Trust it’s safe…

Here & Now
You can’t control the people around you. All you can do is work on yourself. Take some time to reflect and look inwards. You’re not responsible for anyone else. Observe, don’t absorb the energies around you. Take some time to protect yourself. Stay grounded and mindful of your own actions. Set an example for everyone…

Are there limits on you?
I get to be as free as I choose to be. Or do I really? Is that just a lie that I tell myself? Of course I’m free to be me! But am I really? Is that just another lie that I tell myself? What if I stopped telling myself these lies? Then where would…

Why?
Why did this happen? How to find meaning? When tragedy strikes without warning. The loss of a life that was only beginning. Taken too soon. Find no silver lining. Deeply loved by all, lived life to the full. Experienced more than many ever will. Fearless and strong, always full throttle. A bright future awaited, limitless…

Mothers Day
A difficult day for some who painfully hold A different version of mother not the story we’re told. Not always a comfort, or an ear to listen, even hugs can be used for manipulation. Not every mother becomes like a friend, Someone to turn to, on whom you depend. Some simply struggle to care for…

Surrender
Drop into the body, move through the freeze. Let the rhythm take you to find release. Does the body move energy? The mind thinks it knows. Let energy move, the body swept up in the flow. Expand past the body, as one with spirit. Above and beyond, the skies the limit. Breathe in compassion, the…

Not-Shame
Gaining perspective, reveals raw edges. Twists and tangles, seen from new angles. Up close and personal, huge rôle reversal. Afraid of finality, too much reality. Swimming in a sea of fear and misery, Impossible to name so drenched in shame. Release the old story, Protection illusory. Could a glimpse of ‘not-shame’ be sufficient to change?
