ho’oponopono (ho-o-pono-pono) is an ancient hawaiian practice of reconciliation and forgiveness. a very simple, yet powerful, process: – i’m sorry – please forgive me – thank you – i love you sit with these four phrases, and wish them to the person in your heart that you are having a hard time with….

i used to work in a small arboretum/research area during college. occasionally, during my lunch break, i would take my lunch over to the hospital and “people watch.” while it’s been years since i’ve ventured inside a hospital, i’ve always been intrigued by the kaleidoscope of energy that swirls around them—love, trust, hope…loss—quite the brew for psychological & behavioral study. (for much the same reason, i also enjoy airports.) one… Keep Reading

today, emory wrapped up her kindergarten year—and for someone who really doesn’t care whether she attends a public school, i have unraveled into a quiet, contemplative bundle. it all began with a dvd presentation, yesterday, in her classroom. parents lined up in kid~sized seats to watch their children’s first year, from the schoolroom perspective, in the company of clever and emotionally-fit music. clips of the kids standing alongside a ruler… Keep Reading

I remember myself as spirit and as human. I remember the past. I remember the future. I remember ways of living and of being across many lifetimes. I remember how to communicate with the natural elements that pattern our physical presence. I love and remember you as a wise and beautiful soul. I encourage us—you and I—to continue expanding our individual perceptions of oneness and wholeness until we, collectively, reach… Keep Reading

“the Earth is going to soon go through a great purification and humanity can make the decision as to how extreme this purification will be.” —hopi prophecy the past few nights have been filled with intense dreams and visions that make sense of the past, of the future…and of the road connecting the two. for those of us who came through this physical life (this time around) to aid in… Keep Reading

my 1980’s saturday morning routine is a gem forever burnished in my mind. top of the list was watching “smurfs.” magic coupled with very small, one room, round mushroom houses and communal living—yes please! …intriguing how little core interests actually morph over the years.:) next, i would set up the small, gray/silver, one-cassette player (that my parents gave me for christmas one glorious year) in front of our singularly spectacular… Keep Reading

2010 hooked my interest at ‘hello.’ it forced me to step up, to leap and bound in areas of soulful progress that has both frightened and delighted me. it continued unveiling tucked away abilities that i had (and hid) as a child and it pushed forth, to a place that cannot be ignored, the task of sorting through and organizing them all in a way that makes sense to me,… Keep Reading

Despite my managing to avoid the news for the past 10-or-so years, I’ve been adequately kept ‘in the loop’ regarding the on~goings of the BP disaster in the Gulf—and, like many others, my heart hurts. Years ago, I learned to put these types of disasters (acute ones, such as this—and the more ongoing, under~the~radar type of destruction that has been accumulating for years) in the back of my mind, simply… Keep Reading

similarities exist between my semi~obsession with middle names and the sans~light hours. both offer hidden and somewhat untouched variables. a whole separate crew of creatures venture out as light gives break—offering up distinct sounds, smells and sights. always do the smaller morsels reel me in. this eve’s stray elect: i distantly picked up a familiar tune as i was stepping my way through the woods toward town. upon searching the… Keep Reading

having a background (and genuine interest) in science, i am naturally drawn to the study of energy on several levels. one tidbit that always stood out in my mind from each class was that energy cannot be created or destroyed—it is perpetual and can only change form. to change form, energy must be in motion, and all energy follows the basic laws of movement. movement is vibration and according to the law of… Keep Reading
