I feel blocked when I leave your house

My best friend said on the phone last night, “I feel blocked when I leave your house.”   I’m reeling.  I mean, it’s not like the chaos she sees here is a surprise to me, but hearing her say it was like a punch in the stomach.  My entire home is intentioned around making people feel [...]

Time Awareness

I have a lifelong habit of being late. I also have a lifetime of experience trying to be on time, an arsenal of tricks to get me somewhere when I am supposed to be there. None of it has worked, from moving my clocks ahead ten minutes to marking appointments in my calendar as actually [...]

To People Trying To Get A Breech Baby To Turn Around

Enlightenment?

Tricks and Treats

It’s Halloween week, and I am thinking about what scares me. What are my fears? What do I tend to resist, stay away from? Why? What lies on the other side? How do I live in relation to that fear? How does fear reflect who I am in this world? What are the tricks, and [...]

Micromovements

I’m fascinated by Sark’s idea and use of micromovements to achieve one’s goal. They’re tiny, tiny steps, especially useful to procrastinators and perfectionists. I love the affirmation that no step is too small, and it all counts. http://www.planetsark.com/pdf/MicromovementSheet.pdf

Most Precious Gifts

I heard author Norman Fischer share this reflection recently: “Our state of mind and our attitude are the most precious gifts that we give to each other.” Just thinking about it, I sense a shift in my self from more doing to an increased desire to be. I invite you to let the words settle [...]
