Calming Down
Recently I’ve been writing more about my history, my life-long romance, we might say, with leaving myself and going somewhere else. I realize that may sound like crazy California-speak. What do I mean, “I leave myself”? Where do I go? Am I referring to one of those “floating up above my body” experiences? [...]
Over a year ago, I wrote a post called Loving Reality. That was in the days of 38 or so mighty readers. This morning I was reminded of this piece because it was republished in Soulful Living. I remembered how much I love this piece, and how important I think this idea is. So I’m [...]
You know that person in your community that you’ve always been aware of but never gotten to know? At least a dozen people you know know them, and like them. You hear their name all the time. But something in you just feels kind of apathetic, uninterested, in getting to know this person. You kinda [...]
Good morning lovelies, Here’s the thing. Life is problem-full. In fact, it is problem-generating. Here’s the recipe Your fears, expectations, desires, attachments, wounds, hopes, longings Other people’s fears, expectations, desires, attachments, wounds, hopes, longings The limitations of the physical world, limitations on things like space, time, lifespan, money, land, oil, and cookies in [...]

I’m passionate about the art of subtraction. Living better by subtracting. There are some fabulous bloggers who write about having less stuff and focusing on fewer tasks. That’s not my area of expertise. I think about subtracting in terms of the non-physical junk that clutters our lives: the shoulds, the people-pleasing, the settling. I call [...]
Good morning. It’s one of those mornings when everything has worked to enable me to be up and at the desk at 5am. Delicious. Many of you know this is my favorite time to write. It’s been an amazing few days for my writing, with my posts being published at some great [...]
It’s not just you. Slowing down and emptying out is hard. There’s a lot of talk in the personal growth world about slowing down, simplifying, decluttering. I write a lot about this topic, about the importance of white space- the empty, open space and time in our lives. But there’s one thing I [...]
I know a lot of people who are running on over-drive. Somewhere along the way, life got too full, too busy, too cluttered, too rushed and frantic. The costs of this are high: Everything in life starts to feel shallow and incomplete We become short-tempered and unkind to spouses and children because “there is nothing [...]
