Whale Beings

on Sep 2, 2024

Whale beings of the waters, whale beings of the earth. After recently having some time exploring some of the deep waters of dreamtime, I found myself up in a plane, on my way home, and looking out the window with marvel. What I saw was what I have known as mountains, but what I could see this time, was the whale spirit emanating through this part of earth/land expression. They really are so big these mountain whale expressions, even from so high in the sky, the massiveness of their presence can be felt. I notice how they rise from/as land surface. Just as the water body whales can rise and surface, bringing more of themselves up and out to be seen. I see/feel the earth whales’ slowed down, “I can hold and take you into, deep time” message. From the sky, this perspective, I can see/feel how they come in and out of where they are and then fall back into the earth body....

Denver Animal Shelter

on Jan 14, 2023

I haven’t been great about keeping up on here. Part of this is I haven’t really had the juice or desire to be on social media. Part is there has been other things needing my attention on the computer and then anything I have left over I don’t want to give to being in front of the screen any longer. I make notes to myself and actually have things pop up all the time that I DO want to write or share about (often at 3am, so not the most ideal time). I have perspectives I want to share, books, course ideas, and so many cool and useful things that I want to offer out into the world emerging all the time. I’m hoping once I get a few things set up for Vandemic I can come back to offering out some of the things I most love again. Or, I need to figure out how to somehow do it anyway. This morning, against all logic and the needs of my “to do” list, I’m...

Upcoming Continuum Series, Laura Weaver’s “Luminous”, and Full Circle Perfection

on Sep 22, 2022

I’m offering a three week Continuum series starting at the end of this month that I’m calling “Open Weave”.  It’s a Continuum based exploration of well being.  The series is inspired by what I’m currently working with, a compilation of somatic inquiries that have come from spontaneous openings, ways of re-nourishing, re-sourcing, and cultivating freedom/life/health/wholeness. After I opened to, said yes to hosting and offering this series, this poem just happened to find it’s way across my ears and into the field of “my own luminous being”.   Perfect. (And upon further research, and as an aside, Laura Weaver sounds pretty damn awesome.) LUMINOUS by Laura Weaver There is a place within that cannot be destroyed by flood or fire by bloodthirsty armies or devastating illness— it is this untouchable essence of us that quakes with...

Perspective- Lessons from Luna

on Mar 5, 2022

It occurred to me, while I was walking Bahni through our city streets, and got a glimpse of dear Luna…Isn’t it kind of crazy that I can stand on my street and see the moon in a mid day sky, but I can’t see the next town over?I understand why of course, in a logical sense, but isn’t that just interesting to think about?It reminds me that if we only look at a phenomenon from one point of view, we can easily miss all the factors and layers of other stuff that could be in the way of us seeing something clearly.The next town over is certainly closer to me right now than the moon, but the angle from which I’mstanding provides me with this particular line of site. One window of seeing vs another.At this place, where I’m currently standing, there are things in my line of site between me and the next town over that prevent me from seeing it.Distance, in the case of the moon, actually...

Feb 19, 2022 My little baby brother, Colton, would have turned 30 today. I don’t know why it’s hitting me a little extra hard this year or this morning, but it is. I think there’s something around him being 30, a milestone birthday, maybe. I don’t know. It can be hard to understand the mysteries of heart and grief and feelings. What I do know, is that when I ride them, instead of fight them, they move and change and offer their gifts.  I find myself wondering extra this year, “What would you have grown up to be like?”. “What and who would you love?” “What would have made you laugh and smile? ” “Would you have liked school?” “What would our relationship have been like?” I so want to know more about the man you would have become. What would our family have been if you had lived? I think I would have really loved being your big...

“Salt In My Soul, An Unfinished Life”

on Feb 5, 2022

I just finished reading “Salt In My Soul, An Unfinished Life” by Mallory Smith.The book was completed and compiled by Mallory’s mother Diane, but taken mainly from Mallory’s writings.I began this book this past summer, but it really took me some time, I had to wait until I was ready to be with it and take it in sections.It came into my life when I was ready to do some healing, some opening up of old deep in places that were ready for some light and some shared perspective.I began to write here a few times about the places I was touched from Mallory’s shares and experience. A number of times I found myself talking to her, talking to me, feeling my other friends who have passed coming back in through memory and with presence.I actually finished the book last night, on Peter’s anniversary (one of my dear loves who had CF). There was something so fitting about this. Gave me some time to...

Big T Pow Wow- Versary!

on Feb 1, 2022

Yesterday was my two year Trikafta-versary.In some ways it’s hard to believe it’s been two years. I’m still in the learning curve of learning how best to work with this “new to me” body with my Trikafta super powers.In other ways it seems like pre-Trikafta was a lifetime ago.I still label every single one of my days on it with a number. My daily count helps remind me of the number of days, the time I have so much gratitude for.(Not that I didn’t have gratitude for my life before Trikafta.  I did and I do. The whole big beauty-full crazy thing.)It certainly has not been an easy or seamless transition, but wow, to be where I am at now, at this time in my life, coming out of a MAC treatment that it seemed I might loose to. This. This feels like, this is, a dream I didn’t even know how to dream come true.Thank you Big T.My Pow Wow!?

I was on a quick walk with Bahni B today and realizing-  I’ve learned to see the sky like I do the ocean. I’ve come to intimately know it’s vastness, and to feel into my own, as I open up to the space above.… behind, below, on all sides.When I look up into the curve of the sky, I’ve come to be able to feel into the round ball of our planet, opening to a glimpse into the forever of space beyond.Looking up has come to help me to know spaciousness, remember spaciousness.Finding the sky has become a salve for my being, a way to restore, reset, even within the city streets and surrounding concrete.I’m so grateful for this ever present access point.Thank you Big Blue.
