Warm Springtime Greetings to you all!
I'm hoping you are reveling in the signs of springtime bursting forth all around you!
"April Showers bring May Flowers "
the saying goes.
It may be worth it to take some time this spring to notice what you are watering.
What wants to burst forth in bloom in you?
What has been longing to grow or be noticed?
Are you watering seeds or weeds?
Do you have the patience to wait, see, trust and tend what is rising up to be expressed in you? Without judgment?
Do you even know what your unique medicine is?
Are you willing to honor and water it so it can grow and blossom?
You always get to choose what gets your attention.
Energy follows attention and intention.
What will you choose to give your attention to?
Where do you want to direct your energy?
Paying attention changes your experience;
when you think you already know, you stop paying attention.
Are you ready to see with fresh eyes?
To be surprised by the wonder all around?
These times are calling for conscious intention setting, thoughtful attention.
Lack of attention, living on auto-pilot,
leads to
Dis-connection, Dis-order
and Dis-ease
It's hard not to get caught up in the wave of excitement as the world starts rushing back to "normal" with mass vaccinations,
lifting of restrictions and the consequent return to
busy-ness...
unconsciousness.
This introspective time has made me realize that I truly do NOT want to return to "normal", which in my estimation was very abnormal; life-taking rather than life-giving.
The unquestioned speed of daily life.
The rampant materialism and greed.
The unacknowledged unconsciousness that took a great toll on all of us.
Perhaps you'll join me and spend some time this spring to reflect on exactly what you want to carry forth from the "old" unconscious life you have been living, while embedded in a society that thrives on auto-pilot.
Give your attention to the newfound awareness that you already have the capacity to create a more beautiful world, for yourself, others and all of life.
You have the power to choose.
Just by paying attention.
Together, let's set the intention to create the Connection, Order and Ease that we all long for and rise up for the good of all of us
...The door is wide and open-
don't go back to sleep...
Rumi
I'm feeling a deep call to live in a more conscious, simple, connected and aware way.
I am ready to take action to ensure that we all have the same privileges and opportunities to live in our own magnificent and unique glory, to insist that basic rights, necessities and comforts be available to everyone, everywhere with absolutely no exceptions.
You too?
This poem speaks to my heart and inspires me.
It clarifies what really matters, and gives me courage.
This is what I wish for all of us💕🙏
“To love. To be loved. To never forget your own insignificance.
To never get used to the unspeakable violence and the vulgar disparity of life around you.
To seek joy in the saddest places.
To pursue beauty to its lair.
To never simplify what is complicated or complicate what is simple.
To respect strength, never power.
Above all, to watch.
To try and understand.
To never look away.
And never, never, to forget… another world is not only possible, she is on her way.
On a quiet day, I can hear her breathing."
~Arundhati Roy
We are consciously creating a new world by giving thoughtful attention and care to our own healing.
Deep quiet, rest and balance creates the container that is essential for this healing.
We are like individual cells in a giant organism, a grand energy matrix.
When one of us heals, it brings healing to the whole.
Give your immune, energy and nervous systems the resources needed to heal body, mind and spirit.
Do it for yourself...do it for all of us.

Spring is the perfect time to catch up,
to remember who we really are:
We do not become healers.
We came as healers.
We are.
Some of us are still catching up to what we are.
We do not become storytellers.
We came as carriers of the stories we and our ancestors actually lived.
We are.
Some of us are still catching up to what we are.
We do not become artists.
We came as artists.
We are.
Some of us are still catching up to what we are.
We do not become writers, dancers, musicians, helpers, peacemakers.
We came as such.
We are.
Some of us are still catching up to what we are.
We do not learn to love in this sense.
We came as Love.
We are Love.
Some of us are still catching up to who we truly are.
~ Clarissa Pinkola Estes ~
Remember who and what you already are-it is time to co-create a more inclusive, loving and joyful world that holds all of us with love and respect.
May you release your burdens as gently as the cherry blossoms drop old petals
May deep awareness of our interconnectedness come into full bloom
May we remember how precious we each are and savor each other and our uniqueness
May we realize that so much more is possible if we work together rather than in opposition
May we be still and rest so we have the energy to help ourselves and each other heal and thrive
May we drop in and cultivate our unique gifts and talents so that we can bring our own unique medicine to this needy world
Let's set the intention to create a new, more beautiful and inclusive "normal" for humans, animals and the Earth which is our precious home
I wish you all a glorious, riotous, exuberant springtime.

Pay new attention!
BE love!
Bloom!🌷
Love
