Yesterday I was at the Rain Room at LACMA with my sweetie. He, with a keen eye for composition, was snapping lots of pics. Afterwards he was showing me the ones of me…many of which my response was “Ugh, those are awful.” Delete, delete, delete. He became sullen and when I inquired into his mood,… Continue reading Mindfulness, Kindness and Projection
Hey Beauty, What part of you has shown up this morning? What would be the kindest thing you could do for this part of yourself right now? Here in my part of the world the winds are howling. They’ve been stirring my emotions all night long. A emotional part of me, delicate, tender, raw has… Continue reading Monday Love
Some of my greatest gifts have been words — laconic in nature. They arrive at just the right moment. The first time I met my sweetie for tea (which turned out to be a coconut smoothie for me and red wine for him), I shared one of my favorite quotes: “A miracle is a shift… Continue reading A Gift

I would rather be thinking about all the whos in whoville and hanging twinkle lights…but I’m not. I’m worried about dying. Maybe because my kids have been with their dad since Thanksgiving and I have more brain space than usual. I have no one to hang twinkle lights for. A perfectly juicy, rich, smelly… Continue reading Death and Twinkle Lights: the gift of mindfulness and starting where you are
Good morning love, What part of you is here today ? Take a deep breath in and ask. Who is here? No need to search too hard. The first answer will do. For me it’s a part that feels soft and vulnerable. Like a young child, wondering if anyone likes me. A part that wants… Continue reading Monday Love
That’s my theme song this week. A love song. From me, to me. I fucked up. I hate when that happens. Really really hate it. Thinking about my theme song and what it means when I screw up. I was doing the best I could when I booked flights during winter break based on past… Continue reading Have a Little Faith in Me
