weekly inspiration to help you transform your life

In all honesty, I woke up in bad spirits. And then, almost as though my subconscious read the Mindy Kalin New Yorker article, it got “movie cute frustration scene” when my Belle and I miss-coordinated and after I took once sip, most of my morning coffee got splashed on me and the sidewalk. Then...

Yesterday felt that alignment was so needing to be my top priority that I headed right to Kabuki to soak.  Beyond necessary.  [And on the way, a double-sized bus pulled up next to me in the convertible –– I was baffled why –– so the driver could say he liked my ride.  Honestly.  He actually said, “So...

So late last night I became obsessed with the whole Human Design system, although I felt more confused perhaps then when I started. As a PROJECTOR (a minority type), apparently I am supposed to “wait for an invitation” which to me has always been my downfall (ie, I feel I have often spend too m...

A morning of cleaning and organizing –– moving from the upstairs back down to the Magic Cottage –– and all the sorting and paring down and laundry and filing felt very therapeutic, frankly.

Signing at Acre was sweet and simple and highlighted by two fantastic reunions...

Have no time/inclination for a longer blog today with the book signings but I want to stay true and disciplined and remember the day.  I love writing the longer entries, but this just isn’t the day — and yet I don’t want to let it go by unrecorded/unremembered. I don’t want to forge...

I have a good story about my body –– and by that I mean one that works for me. In the 90s I dabbled in some Alexander technique and my teacher Daniel Singer, whose now a senior faculty member of the ACAT, told me one morning that I had a “lucky body.”  When I asked what he meant, he said, ̶...
