Too many people around me are suffering with illness and challenges. I feel hopeless and helpless. I worry I'm next.

I often think about my ability to survive my life. We all have our stories. Using my breath has been a crucial tool in my challenging times.

I can’t make sense of the struggles that befall people. My life changed because I found lessons in everything I experienced.

This good feeling is healing energy bumping up against my nostrils and inviting me to steer this energy towards my heart.

I've talked about my commitment to serenity. I make it sound so simple. Words are easy to say. But how to truly live by them?

Covid is looking in my window. I experience a guided meditation early this morning, and tears welled up. I choose to face my fear.

During the most traumatic event of my life, I miraculously found stillness in the turbulence of the surrounding violence I was subjected to.

I’m humbled by the innate intelligence of my physical body and my spiritual body. So, I wasn’t surprised when the spasms started in my back.

No matter what position I put myself in, what positive change I make, what intention I make, what activity I do, I come back to uncertainty.

I’ve been scared away by life again. Two steps forward, one step back. Why does my humanness have to interfere with my happiness?

What does the silence sound like? In our silence we listen and wait to hear truth. I recognize it when I feel goosebumps. Truth has no time.

Allowing myself to feel my deep emotions is a key. It’s up to me to find a safe place with an intention to feel my pain.

It’s easier for me to create my self-abuse than it is to wait for abuse. Today I take a breath and break through the walls of shame.

Expectations take me out of the moment and places me smack dab in the middle of stress. Mindfulness means staying aware. I choose awareness.

Maybe it’s a habit of worry. Maybe it’s my way of reminding myself I’m not in control. Daily I let go and bring in gentleness.

Dear friends are departing New ones are arriving not yet known, Brand new in their bright packages Life breathes in and out

I worked in a job that required me to be focused at all times. I kept order in the office while my life was spinning out of control.

I am more than my experiences. I am the collective vessel of my soul. All of me is needed to go forth.

I feel so deeply it hurts to be human and at the same time the hurt is being human. Humanity is reacting. Humanity is waiting.
