The Journey In

"And you? When will you being that long journey into yourself?” - Rumi Here we are, one month into 2021 - ready for new beginnings, leaning towards hope, and desperate for our world to heal. I’m sure I am not alone when I say that this year so far has been exhausting. I often find…

Our creativity is born from our desire to perpetuate life.

In each of my travels I realized that no matter where we go - there we are. Sounds like a no-brainer, but how often are we *really* present…

Summer in the city can be intense. The heat makes us irritable, impatient, and easily frustrated. We can see this on a macrocosmic level in our culture, as aggression goes up along with the temperatures. Although we cannot always directly change the larger consciousness of our society, we do have access to the ancient healing…

As a former competitive gymnast, perfection was never an option, it was the rule. Like most adolescent women yearning for validation, I tolerated nothing less than my absolute best at all times.
