Mind + Heart Food
When we sync up our divine heart with our ability to vision, imagine and create with our mind and heart (both physically, emotionally, spiritually and energetically) we begin to flow effortlessly through life, a deeper level of trust develops from within. Divine love is always accessible to everyone. However, it is easier on some days than others to have faith in the unexplainable that runs through you. For this reason, it becomes a practice to bring presence and awareness to the foreground in every state of being. Which will assist you in knowing and trusting your connection to your divine heart.
Yesterday, I was pulling a load of wash from the dryer. I looked into the dryer and saw this heart (shown above). The dryer sheet had formed itself into and origami feeling heart. These type of moments move me and bring me joy. They are also reminders to myself that the unexplainable will communicate in many ways to provide reassurance, protection and direction. If you are open to gently create and listen from within, your sacred heart will start to engage in communication from within and the result will manifest in the physical world around you.
If inspired, bring awareness to your divine heart by simply resting in observation of your physical heart and natural breathing pattern. Several times per day, rest there. Watch what unfolds. Observe what arrives. Let it be, without attachment. Then, integrate what the surprise is communicating. From there you will start to have a deeper knowing where to you are being guided to be.
Poetry
Portals
possible opens doors hidden
behind gateways shrouded inside
chronos (time) banker’s books distort
all possible reveals thresholds
destined entry, disguised portals
spiraling path undulating
nature inserts gateway clearly
unique pulse leads repetition
1 1 2 3 5 8 13
cycles create, manifests clear
change constant, pattern consistent
ahh miraculous precision
beauty way flowing everywhere
move with nature divine rhythm
gateway opens, possible leads
organically offered ether
a spontaneous masterpiece
resting in unexplainable
…all possible here

Body Food
There are three things I love to create for my clients protocol to support them during a seasonal reboot, cleansing and balancing.
Custom Spice Blends
Custom Tea Blends
Custom Abhyanga Oil
For this moment I will focus on, the Abhyanga. It is a warm, often herbal-infused, oil used for the Ayurvedic practice of self-massage (abhyanga). This is a very supportive daily offering to self in all seasons. Being I prefer making small batches or one of a kind blends, these offerings bring me a lot of joy as I create them. This is actually how herbs, spices, teas and oils were always made, one blend at a time. A deeper listening between myself and my client merges communication and a mysterious alchemical outcome arrives. The pause creates a bridge to integrate the wisdom from ‘the earth’s offerings’, all the elements, myself and my client. It is a very sacred space for me to create from. It is how I extend my heart and wisdom to support their journey of balancing, regenerating and caring for self. Each recipe is unique beyond the physical ingredients. It is a dance with the ether that assists in transcending the perfect blend for you or anyone that wants to experience this. You are unique and I feel very strongly that a custom blend is the best way for me to meet your needs.
The OIL
In Ayurveda, many of the protocals and treatments include a lot of oil. For most westerners this can be a little overwhelming at first. I attribute this to the fact that most humans in the west have not been fully held and touched by this much love and nourishment. Which permiates the 7 layers of tissue in the body. In Sanskrit, the word ‘sneha’ means oil and love. It is encouraged during the abhyanga to hold this love for self while you apply the oil to your entire body for about 5-15 minutes before you shower. This ensures you will permeate each layer below the surface of your skin. Each layer below is considered to be more life giving (regenerative). As you permeate these layers it is natural that many things can come up and out. Creating more balance, love and compassion for self. Basically daily massage replenishes your being from the outside to the inside. During, the cooler months and/or if you live in a dry aird climate, this practice of oiling self will help you retain well being and participate in a regenerative way of life. Taking the time to nourish self and feel your entire body daily will awaken you to knowing thy self and remembering what it truly means to love self. Coupled with filling up your cup with happy chemicals generated through touch and massage.

Listening to you. There are all these words, tests, studies and systems that have attempted to understand the human body and how it interfaces with the mind, heart and soul. With all this science-based approach we are yet again evading the wisdom that rests within you. It is this eternal being that has walked before here and is interconnected to a lineage of wisdom that transcends more than you can remember. A gentle reminder: you know you. You have always been with you and you always will be with you. During the journey of living, you have accumulated lessons and wisdom that are unique to you and the physcial body that you were destined to be in. My words might be foreign, liberating and humbling. All of which will help you access your inner wisdom and acceptance of your physical form.
