Okay, So I’m Not Fine

I’ve tried to ignore it. Got myself good and distracted with so many projects, so much creativity, so many things.  And I made it a record amount of time, I think, without actually doing anything about it. Oh, you know how it is when you’re in pain, if you stay busy it just … fades […]

Love is a Field

We have the space-time field, morphogenic fields, magnetic fields … but I think we need to consider fielding one more … field …  Mr. Rogers described love as a verb, like struggle. Love is active, to love, to be loved. Love isn’t some static thing just laying around until we need it. Love is something we do, and […]

Felt Sense

No, I’m not saying felt is sentient (though I have seen some smart felt), nor am I saying that felting is a sensible thing to do (although it is pretty cool).  Heartfelt thanks go out to my dear friend Lynn for putting these two words together in my ears. Felt. Sense. Felt sense. Here’s the […]

Are You Using Your Skills Part 2

I suspected there was going to be a part 2 to the original post, but I needed a minute to get my head around it. Thanks Raech, for letting me “babble” while I thought it through!  Last week, I asked if you were using any of the skills you may have paid good money to […]

Are You Using Your Skills?

So hey, all you lovely folks who have trained in this or that healing modality: Are you using those skills you paid to learn and worked so hard to master? If yes, great. Congratulations, you are a rare individual. If no, welcome to a very, very large club. Let’s talk about it a minute. I’ve been […]

Coherence

The idea of coherence was recently brought gently back into my attention, and it feels like something we all need to be aware of and practice. When two things are in sync, when brainwaves and heartbeats entrain, we call that coherence. Entrainment is when, for example, two clocks started at different times in the same space […]

Recharging and Restoring

So, what do we do now?  If you read last week’s post, I introduced the idea that our brains have forgotten how to recharge our energy levels, whether we are introverts or extroverts (and I confirmed that with a couple extrovert friends over the weekend, they’re not getting the recharge, either), and talked about how […]

Healer, Don’t Heal Thyself …

I am done with “famous” healer-types rejecting science in misguided attempts to prove their schtick can beat Covid.  You know what? Fuck those people. As you know, I do not ordinarily use that kind of language when referring to anyone (unless they are icky politicians), but people people people, it is unconscionable to encourage your […]

Welcome to the Ugly

Spring is powerful. The life force is rising ridiculously. It’s almost like life is starting over. In the mud. Again. Ah, the mud. It’s everywhere. Sticky and squishy and everywhere. There is no place mud can’t reach. I used to dread spring out on the farm because I could mop the goddam floor twice a […]
