My brain, what goes on in this crazy mind of mine, IS My ART!

 For 40 years, I have worked on taming the wacky monkey that is my mind.   Today, I realized (finally!!) that what goes on in there is really interesting, at least to me.  Minds fascinate me and always have.  and guess what?  everyone has one! Since taking psychology in University, I have been amazed. If we could hear what was going on in everyone's minds for just a...

I made an Instagram post the other day with this quote by Anais Nin...

“When others asked the truth of me, I was convinced it was not the truth they wanted, but an illusion they could bear to live with.”

Chew on this one for a second.  Where in your life have you created an illusion of yourself so others could ‘handle’ you?  Or changed what you say or do depending on who you are with? 

In the eye of the horse, this is a...

Now we have built it...

Soulfarm exists now in more than an idea form.  It is tangible.  It is a 5 acre property with a house now and two barns.  A family of humans and animals, 11 right now to be exact, have congregated here and are starting to settle into the earth and the new life.  Soulfarm has a website and business cards and even some programs running with people attending!  It is all so exciting!  But there is more happe...

 Partner dance is like a mutual creation.  Neither partner really knows where they are going until the moment happens.  Once the partners get practiced enough that they can be in the moment and not thinking 3 steps ahead, this is when the flow really begins.  The impulse comes from the music, from the partners, from Source.  We really are dancing with our Souls.

Dance was my introduction to the balance betwe...

Our Source knows that we are by nature Joy. Wellbeing and Bliss are our natural state. Yet so often we keep ourselves far from this. Often, we live lives of ‘shoulds’ and ‘musts’ and ‘I would buts’.

This morning, on my way home from dropping my son at school, I heard a guy talking on the radio in his ‘pump you up for Monday’ voice. He said, “I’m gonna get you through the week’ and he gave a kind of overwhelmed grunt in support...

Today, I ran/hiked.  I started out my adventure in a bad mood.  I was feeling overwhelmed by my body and my ‘issues’.  Yesterday, I had a day of sore stomach most of the day and this morning, I have a rash that is so much worse because of the cold.  I stand looking at the beginning of my run and tell the Universe that I will run until I feel better…until I have an aha moment about what I’m feeling.  And so I ran…...

This post is about freedom…. 

I sit at the edge of the pond with Izzy by my side.  Izzy is our large, love dog.  During the Solstice last night, Kai (my youngest son) and I did a little fire ceremony in the house (in the wood stove).  We were letting go of old stuff and bringing in new energies and powers.  I decided to follow it up with letting go of a bunch more stuff into the pond.  I put the Hucha (negative energy in the An...

Black Panther visited me yesterday in my cards…. Since then, what has been sitting with me is this…”Find the emptiness of the void and snuggle into Black Panther’s midnight fur.  In all cases, you are reminded that every human being emerged from the darkness of the womb; you once felt that the silence and the ebony void of this nurturing space was the safest place to BE…Medicine Cards by Jamie Sams and David Carson.

I have been...

When the world is covered in mist, the silence descends…. On our farm, the trees (above) look like they are in a black and white photo.  They look silver.  I feel the veil is thin between us and something magical, something unseen.  

I woke up this morning with this dream still running around my head.  I had been looking for Raven (my horse) so she and I could help others.  I wasn’t panicked that I couldn’t find her,...

I am a creation and a creator and a creature….hmmm.

In my last post, I talked about feeling the way forward and feeling first, then doing.  This concept feels so big that I’m going to write about it again.   I have been chewing on the above statement…. Creation, creator, creature.

We are all creatures.  We have all been created by something (no possibility that this can be argued).  Without getting political or religious (b...
