Star struck!

This week I met one of my teachers in person for the first time, Dr Gabor Mate.  I confess I was rather giddy with excitement and thrilled to be so close to the real person. Living in Canada, Gabor was on a book tour and yes, I got my book signed and we had a short exchange. I enjoyed the feeling of excitement and connection when we met.

I have been studying his Compassionate Inquiry approach through a series of videos for the last 12 months and recently graduated. The programme was a deep di…

Thank you Michael and I'm sorry to read about your son - you will find The myth of normal enlightening and I hope helpful.  

Connection is key

🔥 If we share our story with someone who responds with empathy and understanding, shame cannot survive. Empathy has no script.

🔥 There is no right or wrong way to do it. It’s simply listening, holding space, withholding judgment, emotionally connecting and communicating that incredibly healing message ‘you are not alone’.

My Pilgrimage Recording

I did my talk this past Saturday and recorded it after some requests. I was actually surprised how many people have watched the recording (my recording does have many lovely pictures I took along the way!!), and want to share it with you.

Thrive Where You Land

(This is from an FB post I made today. I do short pieces there, and share them to IG as well.)

Water Hibiscus grow in the water. Our Mother Plant seeded a pot near the pond and actually grew an impressive stalk of its own.

I noticed it Saturday night when this gorgeous bloom demanded my attention. 

Then I remembered another sprout that recently appeared in the gateway between our backyard and our neighbors. Sara (our neighbor )asked if she could transfer it to a pot for her yard. Yes, of cour…

Learning opportunities

Every moment and experience you’ve ever had has led up to this one. All your experiences prepared you for now. 

How do those statements feel? Heavy, like a burden or responsibility? Or light like a feather?

I’ve had so many “learning opportunities” in my life. (Yes, that’s code for challenges and shit I really didn’t want to have to deal with.) I’ve also had a great deal of education, not only academic, but also personal, spiritual, mental, and physical. So many of the experiences seemed mean…
