I have been keeping my opinions to myself as I have been feeling more emotionally unstable and I am not a fan of saying things I will regret. I have been experiencing physical security that I have not had for years. I am not wondering when my next pay day will be or how IContinue reading “Healing is a process”

I am a Base…
I wanted to talk a bit about Acroyoga. I have been doing this practice since 2012. Everyone gets hooked into flying at first because it’s such a unique and incredible sensory experience that leaves you wanting more. Due to my size I shifted pretty rapidly into being a base. As a base you become anContinue reading “I am a Base…”
Integration
I have been feeling like my inner teenage suppressed emotions are surfacing, I have deep respect for who I was as a teenager. I would not hold back what I thought and had a sharp tongue. That being said I also had to suppress parts of myself that were not acceptable at the time. ThisContinue reading “Integration”
Paying With Your Attention
As we begin to become the creators of our own lives, our own teachers, our own cheerleaders, and at times advocates for ourselves to live in our own unique ways. Many of us are starting to bump up against the old and tired systems of domination and control. Witnessing so many people creating systems thatContinue reading “Paying With Your Attention”
Aliveness
Something that I have always held inside myself is sovereignty. in contrast to what is happening online and in the media sovereignty is still untouched.

I have been working through my physical pain. I have been having some strong reactions, as I sink into being fully present I would feel a senseContinue reading “The “T” Word”
In Hindsight
Well it’s been quite the year that is for sure! I thought about doing a post just to share about how I have been doing over this last year as a way to connect and share where I am up to these days. To start I want to say that this year has been equallyContinue reading “In Hindsight”
Authenticity
So what does it mean to be authentic anyhow? I am feeling some physical sensations in me that are new, I feel moments when I want to contract and not be seen fully. It’s like a squeezing in my ribs, it feels energetically like I am cutting myself off like I don’t deserve to beContinue reading “Authenticity”
Perspective
The need to feel heard can often come across as trying to convince someone to change their opinion. At times we can feel justified in “helping” someone change their view point. I want to discuss the topic today around perspective. As stated above, we all have the innate need to feel heard and acknowledged. IContinue reading “Perspective”
