Life Day 1
I am feeling out the direction of this blog now that the fast is over. I intend to make content that is worthy of everyone’s time including my own. Right now I am thinking it will become a place for essays, poetry and my creative writing that is short form. They may not be as…

Fasting Day 38 of 40: The Heart as a Master Healer
With every thrum of the heart beat blood pulses and oxygen fills us. On the down beat we expel that which is no longer serving, C02 and the like, and on the in-breath we bring in vital new life force. The rhythm of the two brings us closer to ourselves. Our heart is the feeler…

Fasting Day 37 of 40: Protection
As we move through our days we are bombarded with stories and news. Lines of gossip of who did what and with whom are on the news, in our phones and around our homes. It is subtle but this vein of energy is destructive in nature and causes us to draw our attention from our…

Fasting Day 31 of 40: Synchronicity
A few weeks ago I decided to go inside Earth and Soul, a metaphysical and spirituality store, and see if they were interested in working with a channeler. At the time I did not know if they had a system for practitioners and healers. Not only did they have a community of beautiful and diverse…

Fasting Day 30 of 40: Mothers
Today will be a short one. I used a lot of gas yesterday and am recovering. Short ones, tall ones, big ones little ones, we all have mothers of varying sizes, temperaments and loves. They have formed and shaped us within their bodies and moved us from beyond the veil and into this realm. What…

Fasting Day 25 of 40: Subtly
The rain drops forming puddles. With each splash of the rain and ripples that follow, the pool returns to balance. Every adjustment is graceful, smooth and effortless. This is our natural order when we allow it and is an example of the microcosm within the macrocosm. We are each expanding as new bits of data…

Fasting Day 22 of 40: Boredom
Out at sea, the wind drifts away and all sailors lament. The doldrums have come. The dread for these sailors is that the life giving and moving wind has gone away, and there is no knowing when it picks back up again. It could be days or weeks. The whole time you have little to…

Fasting Day 15 of 40: Receiving
So much has changed already that there are not many words I can use to convey what it is I am thinking and feeling anymore. I feel like a beacon and conveyor of thoughts. They ease into my awareness and move right through. Some are still memories and regrets, others wonderful ideas. Each one says…

Fasting Day 12 of 40: Reflecting and Wallowing
We’ve all done it. One second we’re driving the car, talking with a friend, or reading a book, and a part of our brain drifts away and into the past. Memories of childhood, an awkward moment in high school, or an oopsie from last week start to flood in. Before we know it, the drive…
