The Wild Call to BE who I am Becoming
I recently finished a ten-week course focused on incrementally envisioning a whole picture view of the life I want to create. While it helped me narrow down an impossible number of dreams, get clear on my values, form a supportive community and set in stone a stronger foundation for who I am becoming, I still…
Receive Ease with Elderberry
Before I begin, I invoke the ancient spirit of elderberry with a couple sips of the sparkling tonic I’ve poured in an eggshell blue enamel mug. Please speak to & through me, I ask. Let the wise words and healing energy you wish to share be what pours forth now. I hold the mug at…
Juice Cleansing 101
Fresh-pressed juice is my choice indulgence. Second only to bread. And chocolate… I would cringe at the amount of money I’ve dropped at my local juice shop if it wasn’t so damn good for my body & small biz economy. But knowing the investment goes toward health & vitality, supporting a business I adore, AND…
Touristas in Mexico City
When I travel on my own I oft want most to discover a place by getting lost in it. I love wandering aimlessly down streets into the unknown & exciting sights, alluring smells, and serendipitous strangers I happen upon. I’ve held this conviction that I can best experience a local like a local if I…
Late Spring Foraging Basics
Tonight while out on the trail with my tin of foraged goods, walking slow in late evening sunshine & singing to the plants – I began to cry. Not because I was sad. But because I was so happy! I was overcome with gratitude to be alive. Overwhelmed with how fortunate I am to be…

Empower Inner Wisdom with Dandelion
There exists within me an equal amount of appreciation & fear of Taraxacum officinale – Dandelion. Fear exists because this “weed” was the cause of my very first allergic reaction around the age of 7 when I picked a bouquet for my mom & unknowingly rubbed my eyes before washing my hands. I promptly ended…
Feeding Demons & the Best Granola
Okay, first off – I’m not feeding granola to demons. That would just be ridiculous, right!? I recently learned a meditation technique to feed internal demons “nectar” in order to diminish their energetically draining power, as well as unconscious control over emotional states & actions in daily life. And after an intense session this morning…
33 Ways to Waste Less
“Waste less” has been a value of mine for years. Do I live totally waste-free yet? No.I still produce waste & use things I don’t need but am much more intentional about the way I consume. Because I really love this earth. And treasure my own well-being.And I’m guessing you do too. It’s time to…
Flatbread, Falafel & Seeds of Success
I had really great intentions for February. It was to be a strict cleansing month – eating clean & avoiding all the not-so-good-for-me indulgences I otherwise enjoy. I also intended to be extremely productive & get substantial work done. How does that saying go? The road to hell is paved with good intentions… Well, let’s…
