THE WISDOM SANCTUARY

Just like me, you may be asking yourself "How can I offer up my spirituality in a way that serves many: The earth, my family, my friends, my yoga community, those who disagree with me, those who dislike me, those who hate me?"

I can say with certainty, "I don't know." ‍‍

I've been speaking with my friends and mentors and I'm hopeful and heartbroken. But this isn't my first rodeo and I understand quite clearly how heartbroken is the key to resurrection and change.

One big thing I...

We knew it was coming. We read the cosmos (the placement of the planets with the stars) and saw it coming, changing, shifting.  We even felt it as foreboding. The indicators only show what potentially is ahead of us. We understand this from watching patterns for millennia and recording them. We learn from the past - these indicators from repeating patterns of the cosmos in our visual sky.

I’ve been sitting with this a lot and contemplating this. It's heavy.

It's like how...

Every year, from the darkest point there is a rebirth of light. 

This appears to be even more true, this year of 2020. Consistently throughout this year we've roller-coastered down to the depths, we've witnessed social inequalities, we've had to physically distance ourselves from others, we've lost family and friends and our innocence. We've had to travel down many paths, in solitude yet solidarity, that challenge our fears, our safety, our security and the grand finale of the darkness...

Happy Thanksgiving, y'all. In this month of gratitude, I decided to take on a little experiment. I learned about Dr. Emoto's work about a decade ago, it is truly fascinating. In a nutshell, he found through scientifically conducted experiments that the quality of water changes with attention and more specifically the quality of attention it receives. There is so much to say about this but I'm going to let you go down your own rabbit hole and Google his work because it will change...

Do you hear that beckoning from the depths? It is asking something of you.

You...yes you (and me, for that matter) are birthing something so precious.

The feminine is the one that births, it is our creative force, it allows, it requires our desires yet to be made manifest to come forward. She is wild and energized and chaotic and confused. In order to show herself, to emerge and come forth, she must learn to hold that wildness. She must expand her capacity to hold the chaos that arises in her...

That John Mayer song keeps replaying in my mind… ‘waiting…waiting on the world to change. I keep on waiting...’

The world is always changing. Tomorrow is a big, defining day. Either we collectively say this is not the path we want to continue down, or we say it is. One thing I feel confident in is that we probably will not know if we have a new president and half of us will be really upset in the days, weeks and months to come. Maybe even all of us.

2019 was profound...
