Happy Fall Equinox(or Spring depending on where you live) my friends.  This is the day when light and dark are equal.  A balance of yin and yang on the Earth one might say.  I love the fall, the changing color of the leaves, the… Continue Reading “A Wind-Song Ritual for the Equinox”

With eating disorders numbers shooting thru the roof since the pandemic I feel a deep call to speak more about the Sacred body and union of mind,body and spirit. There are lots of “workout or weight loss challenges “ out there right now that are promoting disordered eating practises as “mental toughness challenges”... and I say...buyer beware !! I remember reading someone’s post about their experience in this particular challenge and I really wanted to comment that it sounded a lot like a day In my life when I had an eating disorder. I refrained but I feel like I need to share this piece for my eating disorder therapist days, “When what you eat or didn’t eat or how much you did or didn’t workout affects how you feel about yourself and your body it’s a sign of disordered eating and weight pre-occupation.” And in this pandemic it’s tough, life felt out of control so sometimes we try (me included) and control what we can... including food and our bodies or we get out of control in those areas as well. Our relationship to food and our bodies reflect our relationship to Life! I just wanted to put out an alternative voice to weight loss or getting in shape, my feed is flooded with this (which can be good but also not ).... if you need help please reach out to someone or your doctor. We need union and respect with our bodies not control and domination. We need to learn how to do this and I will start sharing some ideas 💕🙏🏼. Anything that teaches you to move away from listening to your body’s needs and your body’s limits to achieve a goal someone else set is not really a health oriented choice, it’s the ego’s and often a marketing ploy from someone who has something to sell. Your body is so wise and life is so wonderful when you can honour your body in all ways, without control and dominance. It’s amazing when can allow yourself to indulge your senses and pleasures....life because alive and magical. Your body in Her infinite wisdom will eventually rebel against your control ! What if we were embodied, in union, mind/body connection not mind dominating the sacred, life giving, life guiding, spirit speaking body. Food for thought 💕😊
The energies feel a bit like a pressure cooker as we head towards the solstice. Just like a budding flower there is construction before expansion. This allows for a shaking loose, a releasing, and removing of what is in the way of our expansion. I have a old wound revisiting, anger is within.... I don’t want to let go. I want to be angry, I want to stay in the brute edges of the rage...and I will...so I can release it. I need to move through it. I need to flip over all the angry stones as clearly there is more information and wisdom for me to learn as I hold the fire of this rage. So In preparation of our expansion and blooming with the solstice, I invite you to write, paint or doodle about your constriction and what you are shaking loose.
I’ve been thinking a lot about spiritual nudges...spiritual whispers that guide us. For me it’s more like inner shriek and screams of anxiety or doom or even overwhelm that rattle my insides. I know that it is all simply guidance and information from my soul knocking hard at the door of my mind commanding attention. It is my deepest Self saying something I am in or experiencing is no longer working or fitting and I need to move into a new direction and let this go. I feel like in many ways I’ve outgrown the form of my current job. It does not allow for all parts of myself to be expressed and my truest , deepest parts are the ones standing on the side lines and quite frankly, not too pleased with sitting on the bench. So I tell Spirit that I hear Her and I send an invitation to the Universe to move me where I am supposed to go. I call in the new, I call in the new from, the job, the new experience that is hovering around stalking my energy waiting to swoop in and bring me to the new reality. I’m ready to untether from that which no longer fits into the new. I see myself almost like spider man shooting my webs of energy towards the sky, towards spirit, ready for the Divine to grab hold and help me easily and joyfully make the shift. The budding trees remind me of the beauty of new life and new experiences,
Sometimes Spirit calls upon us to be the light...to bring the light. As my spirituality continues to evolve I realize more and more it’s in the everyday moments and experiences where Spirit is seeking to expand. I was grocery shopping the other day, and as per usual I was running late. I had to hurry to go pick up my kids and wouldn’t you know it, the store was busy. I picked a line and waited 3 or 4 people back only to come to the till to find a very elderly woman working as the cashier. She was slow as she rang in my items and weighed my bananas. She moved as though she were in quite a bit of pain and I noticed that her fingers and hands were filled with swollen joints and crooked fingers likely from the grips of arthritis. I thought to myself that I was going to invite in the Divine in that moment. I was going to call in love and patience... I was going to dance and move with understanding and compassion... not impatience or frustration. I couldn’t help but wonder why this woman in her 70s has to keep working... or does she want to? She looked tired as she struggled to load the bags in to the cart as she moved her hand along the counter to walk. What was her story? All I could think was to pray for her... to send her love... to ask Spirit to surround her and protect her. I patiently and graciously waited as she slowly bagged my groceries before she asked me for payment. All I could think about was love and grace and said another prayer for the long line of people to offer her the grace and patience themselves. It’s amazing how quickly our outlooks can shift in the Presence of the Divine if we invite Her into the moment with us. How can you invite in the qualities of Love in the everyday ? How have you already ?How can you be Light for someone else ? Comment and share I’d love to hear 💕#love #spirit #patience #learning #the-divine #spirituality #spiritualawakening #inthemoment #expansion #grace

Happy New Year! Bye bye 2020! What a year hey! I always find the years that end with 0 so transformational and with that... challenging, with chaos, change, endings, shifting, transmuting. And with time I also find them the most rewarding... they bring out the oomph in my soul. They help me discover what I’m made of and reveal more and more of who I am by releasing what and who I am not. I hope this New Year you begin a new road, a new journey, a new song of life 💕❄️. Here’s some prompts I do each year that I find lovely and are great to look back on .. enjoy 🙏🏼✨❄️🎉. My word for this year is expansion.
