Breakdown to Breakthrough

This year has been the hardest year of my life. 35 years of beliefs, assumptions, and dogma about who I am, what life is about, and where it’s all heading caught up with me in a big way. Total breakdown. The experience has me asking some new, better questions.  All the years of meditating, reading, […]

Doorway Back to Light

Life is a journey. Along the paths we follow, we all will meet moments where we can’t continue in the same way we have been. Life breaks down, and we experience a rupture event that brings us to our knees. These are never easy experiences. The Heroine’s Journey offers a map of the process many of […]

Into the Woods – Soul Searching to Find our Way

What does it mean to soul search? Is it something that you go looking for and some day find? Does it stop after you “find it”? Or is it an ongoing process? I would wager it’s the latter. The soul is an inseparable and essential part of ourselves. It actually isn’t “out there” at all, […]

A New Normal

One unexpected, but lovely, consequence of this pandemic is that I’m meeting more of my neighbors. Are you? It’s strange to say but during normal life we don’t seem to make time for even those that live closest to us. We pass by quickly in our cars, maybe we wave.  I met Lynda early on […]
