The Room Of The Undressing

Startracks.   Spiral nebulae.    Craters of the moon.  She lets herself fall.  She falls into the room of her wants.  The room where the demands of women are endless.  Where her voice has endlessly demanded her to go.  This room which reveals her.  Where she is clumsy again.  Where she is awkward in her grown-up clothing. …

Now Or Later

At some point, now or later, you’re going to have to risk BEING YOU in order to find out who that really is. Not the conditioned you, not the “you” you’ve been taught to believe you are, who you really are. And this perhaps will be the scariest, the most loving, the most rewarding thing…

It Feels Like…

Part of what draws people to a spiritual life is a feeling that they need to do something or be something.  It’s like a religious calling, but less well defined or less structured.   And most of us want to know what that calling is and want to achieve it the best way we can. This…

How’s The Ride?

So we’re nearing the end of the first 1/3 of Horse’s year.  It’s a good time to look back and get an idea of how things have changed from the New Year until now.  My sister taught me something years ago and it has stuck with me, although I usually apply it in way I…

Creative Meditation

Over the past 9 months or so, as I’ve been researching about Akasha and the Akashic records for a book I’ll be writing, I’ve been studying the Kabbalah.  Yes, they are connected.  🙂  Plus I’ll hopefully be putting out a class on Kabbalah for DailyOm.com sometime this year.  Sooner rather than later, but I still…

My first contact with meditation was the classic “sit and clear your mind.”  I was vague on what this was supposed to do for me other than it was necessary for spiritual practice and would be calming.  Somehow it was supposed to lead me to enlightenment but that was many levels of spirituality later.  The…

Mix The Pieces

Ever worked a puzzle and get to a point where you’re stuck?  Doesn’t matter if you’re working from the outside in or the middle out there comes a point where you just can’t figure it out so it’s time to mix the pieces.  Not an easy thing with thin flat shapes but passing our hands…

Over Competent

I’m a big advocate for finding the happy middle.  The extremes help us find our boundaries, define ourselves, create the edge at which we know we are embarking on something new and expanding our horizons, etc., etc., etc….  But the middle is where we find the intricate beauty of all the shades of grey, where…

Listening But Not Hearing

There are so many ways that people believe that they are listening and trying to hear the message.  They have a goal in mind, they have a need, they have a desire and so they start looking for answers.  They try this remedy, that process, ask this group and that expert, but nothing gets better…
