Guerilla Gardening
Gardening is the most therapeutic and defiant act you can do, especially in the city. Plus, you get strawberries. ~~ Ron Finley Hello all! In honor of Mother’s Day, I spent the weekend planting a crazy organic garden, playing in the dirt. I planted about 60 or so cucumbers, aka Pickle Seeds. I planted an equally ridiculous amount of tomatoes and assorted other edibles… Some peppers, more salad greens, tons of sunflower seeds and a variety of other things. The garlic I planted last fall is coming up like crazy, the herbs are on full display and things are blooming...
Read MoreI’m Actually Not That Busy, Either
Hello all! I saw this post and wanted to share it. I’m coming off a several day silent retreat and this was a perfect reminder as I do re-entry. This is a a total cut and paste, I have added nothing to it. The original post from SuperHero Life, by Andrea Scher, can be found here. Enjoy 🙂 This is my new mantra: I’m actually not that busy. It doesn’t sound spiritual or like something you heard at your yoga class. It might not even feel true the first few times you say it! But it’s changing my life. My aha moment came when I saw this graphic...

So in this powerful time when we celebrate all of what it means that Light comes into the world, perhaps a gentle reminder to breathe and let yourself rest a bit. Breathe and allow it to replace that holiday tension with a holy relaxation and sacred calm. This is the time of year when we are reminded to replace the fear and darkness...
Read MoreSpiritual Fruits or Just Nuts?
Today, like every other day, we wake up empty and frightened. Don’t open the door to the study and begin reading. Take down the dulcimer. There are a thousand ways to kneel and kiss the ground. Let the beauty we love be what we do. ~~Rumi I love this picture, taken when the Christ the Redeemer statue was under construction. One of the New Seven Wonders of the World, it was built in Rio di Janiero in the 1920’s and is huge, overlooking the whole city. It captures how I so often feel on the path and I look at it from time to time to remind me of what it symbolizes to me in my...
