The Healing Gift of Self-Compassion

The privilege of a lifetime is being who you are.

~~ Joseph Campbell

Greetings to all my precious people!!

My travels across the pond served as the good medicine needed for restoration. Ireland is known for its high standard of living, with a strong focus on work-life balance, a vibrant sense of community and a more relaxed culture compared to the fast-moving lifestyle of New York.  People tend to prioritize spending time with family and friends, enjoying the “craic” (KRAK) which translates to good times, friendly conversations, and fun experiences.  I witnessed this on a daily basis, with folks gathering along the green expanses just sitting around and talking!  People were outdoors, enjoying the fresh air and early morning mist, when you could hear the birds chirping and watch the village square come alive with activity.  Time was measured in togetherness and not hours.  continue reading »

Hope in the Time of Overwhelm

Keep some room in your heart for the unimaginable.

~~ Mary Oliver

Greetings to all my precious people!!

My mini summer sabbatical is underway and it seems I am not well practiced in the “being mode” versus “doing mode”.   Despite having a daily practice of meditation and qigong, there is still evidence of ‘busy-ness’ that feels hardwired in my brain.  It is a very humbling reckoning!!  The escape to the shoreline of Connecticut offered me glimpses of emotions, dreams, and memories, all waiting to be seen, heard, and acknowledged ‘when there was time’.  So I am grateful for the opportunity to choose to listen to the whispers of ‘if not now, when?’ and I encourage all of you to consider the same.  While our habits and routines of daily life keep us on track and serve us, there is something magical about being away from obligations and responsibilities – even for a short time.  continue reading »
