A Book of One’s Own: A Woman’s Journal

Guidance that applies to anyone seeking pathways leading to the full expression of her creative heart and soul. I have come to realize over time, that it’s also important for a woman to have a book of her own, her… Read More

The Voice Within an Earring

The Voice Within an Earring

All is nearly in place for me to begin to write my next book. My cloistered scriptorium (a small writing space at home) has been tidied and organized. The majority of my 100 plus journals are neatly arranged on nearby bookshelves, awaiting harvesting. A cloth covered notebook stuffed with ideas, possible titles, photos, and other bits of inspiration is also… Read More

Sunrise…Sunset

Sunrise…Sunset

Here on the Western edge of the continent, near the sea, it’s impossible not be aware of the daily miracle of sunrise and sunset. Today’s sunset holds a special poignancy as it symbolizes the exhale of 2017.  Tomorrow’s sunrise is the harbinger of the New Year, with all the joys, challenges, laughter, and tears yet to be lived. I have… Read More

Holy Wisdom: Woman’s Story as Legacy

Holy Wisdom: Woman’s Story as Legacy

Wisdom, the fashioner of all things taught me there is in her, a spirit that is intelligent, holy, unique, manifold, facile, mobile, clear, unpolluted, distinct, invulnerable, loving the good, keen, irresistible, beneficent, humane, steadfast, sure, free from anxiety, all powerful, overseeing all and penetrating through all spirits that are intelligent, pure, and all together facile. For Wisdom is more mobile… Read More

Autumn’s Invitation

Autumn’s Invitation

Perhaps you, too, have been feeling overwhelmed, heart-broken, and oppressed by the news these last months and especially the last the several weeks. Years ago when I was working very hard in therapy to heal issues from my childhood, my therapist told me… Deep sea divers can’t stay in the depths for extended periods of time. They have to surface… Read More

August Reflection: Spiritual and Creative Freedom

August Reflection: Spiritual and Creative Freedom

You must learn one thing. The world was made to be free in. Give up all the other worlds except the one to which you belong.  —David Whyte How do we ensure we are living in alignment with our souls’ longings when daily life is overscheduled, fragmented and often exhausting?  What does it mean to let go of life-depleting tasks… Read More

Sacred Space: The Value of Order and Simplicity

Sacred Space: The Value of Order and Simplicity

My husband and I have been enveloped in the process of moving for the past three months. In the midst of it all, I’ve been challenged to stay centered. I attribute my being off balance to the upheaval and dismantling of my sacred space that was our home. I have come to realize as I age, that beauty in my surroundings,… Read More

Anchoring for Lent

Anchoring for Lent

The world turns and the hours of daylight increase. Spring approaches and Lent begins. Last weekend I was blessed to spend a retreat day with my dear friend, visionary, and artist, Karen Blessen. Twenty-three years ago Karen and I co-created the book, Be An Angel.  Ours is a life-long “soul sister” friendship. Our conversations and Karen’s wisdom always inform and nourish… Read More
