Planet Celebrations
Friday, April 23rd, 2010Happy day after Earth Day! I celebrated by being outside in the beautiful mountain springtime as much as possible. (What about you?)
While out ‘n about, I was reminded of the words of my friend Lainey Papageorge, a jewelry designer in Atlanta: “The spring here is full of a ripeness that is intoxicating in the best [...]
Spring Movement
Friday, March 26th, 2010A few minutes before the Spring Equinox, I ventured out into the “mostly sunny and warmer than it’s been in a long time” afternoon. I was following a protocol that I read from a well-known Tai Chi teacher, suggesting to do some sort of movement — Qi Gong or gentle stretching — to “open the [...]

Things Are Seldom As They Seem
Thursday, February 25th, 2010I recently saw the movie The Young Victoria — starring the delightful Emily Blunt.

“Wasn’t she actually a chubby, [...]

Rites of Girlhood
Thursday, December 31st, 2009The lineage of women plays out in many ways during wedding celebrations. I’ve written a lot about flower girls (including my own experience as a four-year-old), sharing the tender rite-of-passage that the experience begins to unfold.
Being a flower girl for a wedding ceremony can be the first time that a little girl has a sense [...]
“Gratitude is the Memory of the Heart”
Wednesday, November 25th, 2009“Gratitude is the memory of the heart,” a quote by Jean Baptiste Massieu, is one of my favorite expressions. It reminds me at those times when I’m pulled away from my center and judgmental or fearful thoughts come up, that that is not the real me. That’s just a thought and thoughts are not real. (They’re [...]
