I am currently studying to attain certification for 2nd Degree Reiki (Shoden). For people that aren’t familiar with reiki energy healing, here is a short description: it is a method for self-care that involves using meditation to tap in to the invisible essence that is all around us. We are part of this world, we…

As I sit here ready to write I have just seen a little girl stride by with a kitten in her arms… The kitten looked resigned, relaxed, prepared – for the moment – to go where the little girl was taking it. Trusting the hands of the child; as I trusted the hands of the…

Two weeks ago, I returned from late fall in Buenos Aires, Argentina, to my small casita inside the intense heat of New Mexico. Quiet. No city noise. All the rich moments of being with family and friends in honor of my recently deceased father, and sharing my novel Child of Duende with so many inspired…

I discovered a pattern in a series of drawings that I made lately. These drawings were made during a period of three days. They are not all the drawings that I made. They are just a sampling. The pattern is of a layered history. I had this pattern in many other drawings that I did…

Anadi and I took a picture of our shadows kissing on our run today… It was a mini run of only a couple of miles… In truth the longer – winding through the trees – to the beach and back. We had woken up later – 8am – and the heat was already in the day……

As women, we are obligated to be “superwomen”. We take on so many responsibilities, commitments, duties, hobbies – often so we can meet the needs of others. In our busy lives we find ourselves bombarded 24/7 by so much information, that at times we feel overwhelmed and tired just by the thought of having to…

I’m sharing a poem from many springs ago, as I prepare for this spring’s surprises…a grieving of the old…a rebirth: Spring locks her jaws into the hard earth, a pitter patter of rain seeking refuge inside. The windows shut, now open, the moon peers through rows of empty branches, Seeing something I don’t— tulips growing…

I remember now where I was on the eve of the millennium. Do you? I was in Taos, New Mexico, in the mountains somewhere far away from civilization as the entire world braced itself for what we called “Y2K” (when all computers would possibly shut down, and the world as we knew it). As we all…

Obviously there is in this drawing something that grows. And also there is a relationship. The relationship is between two groups. The green and brown is one group and the yellow and ochre is the second group. The yellow and the ochre are free from attachment to the ground. They are transparent and interpenetrating with…

The 6.30am alarm is still a bit of a challenge… I am guessing my body thinks its in England and that I have suddenly decided to leap up at 4.30am! Although there wasn’t a lot of leaping going on ? Anadi and I wandered out into a glorious fresh morning, before the heat of the…

The tiny white bird that had appeared as an angel had definitely been an omen. Peace and healing had flown into my life on its blue-tipped wings after two-plus years of healing from physical pain at my parent’s house in New Jersey. It was time for me to learn about the medicine of spirit that would…

Somehow I lost the drive to read art. I mean to read my art. I still read others’. I feel resistance to reading mine. Maybe the reason is that I think: Well, what is the point? It does not mean much, since I am not attached to it. There is no reason why I’ll let…
