Challenges and Triggers
Last week I started the story of how a handsome young gelding came into my life. This week I’d like to formally introduce him! In his previous home he was known as Lucky, however I felt drawn to giving him a new name to mark the start of this new chapter of his life. I…
Vulnerable in a Red Dress
When we set out to heal something, deeply, fully, we can never—I mean, never—know what energies, what buried memories, reside in our unconscious, beneath layers upon layers of skin. Shed that skin is all we can do, and is all I could do, back at the New England farmhouse in the summer of 2000. As…
Excited Arising
For a few days I did not make many paintings in my daily working on myself, as I used to do. It felt that I was doing a lot with each one and needed some space between them. This is a painting I started very late at night, finished in the morning and wrote about…
The Song of Our Heart…
I love my new foot jewellery… they are pink and sort of crocheted; I picked them up yesterday from our Gatwick address and I have worn them ever since… All the delights of shoe shopping and the fun of fashion for the feet whilst still feeling the earth beneath my soles. I tried out my…
My New Friend
Oh boy! What a journey this is turning out to be! As I began writing this I was waiting in excited anticipation for the arrival of the horse that I’ve taken on permanent loan. He was travelling from St Albans to join me here in Bristol, so had a long road ahead of him, but…
My Women Circle Experience
It’s already four years! The time has really flown by, I have to say, since I started holding my ‘Women Circle of Wisdom’ on 24th July 2014! It has gone so fast that I only realised after I held my women circle last month that this month it will be my fourth anniversary of my…
When Were You Last In Love?
“When’s the last time you were in love?” an Argentinean man asked me at a party I attended about three months ago after returning from his country. “Yesterday,” I said, half in jest. Far from satisfied with my response, this man who, shortly afterwards, would become my new love, asked again. “You mean, when was…
Desire
I have been doing a series of drawings about desire. It just came up and I let it be. Here is one more painting about desire. But desire is becoming more and more beautiful. And here I am starting to know about the way of coming out of addictions, if this is what you want…
Yin and Yang
I lapped my huge grassy park again yesterday round and about loops up and down around… The big tractor was mowing the grass and so one field was super smooth summer cut green, and others were thick with clover, with patches that were damp delicious for my feet… And as I ran and felt once…
Falling Apart in Our Hands
The thunder rolled in, across the fields of high grass, along the old New England road outside my window. It arrived at where I sat, in front of my mesa, my Peruvian altar. Hail followed, and wind that soon turned into a vicious summer storm of late afternoon. I had woken up late that day…
Don’t Worry, Go With the Energy
I am moved Because it is beautiful for me Meaning, Something from home Love coming through There is an external story Of shapes doing Like, maybe, a tree grows on a rock Maybe it is turning into a monster Doing strange things But inside In a one two three rhythm We go from total darkness…
Our Secret Mission on Earth
Trent Park, a magical fairy tale woodland delight… Dappled shade, dancing beams of golden sun, flashing like swords through the trees… Guiding me on my mission… The secret mission on earth, that I am only discovering and uncovering through living and listening to my intuition; following the clues… The secret mission that I came here…
