"We dream in color...but we live in black and white..." (Jefferson Starship)

These words were in a song by Jefferson Starship and it was one of my favorite songs ever - still gives me goosebumps when I hear it. Why? Because each of us dreams beautiful, vivid, technicolor dreams but we are too...

Join me as we explore su...

What does it mean to Winter? Many of us have lost touch with the natural seasonal cycles due to electronics, lights, and our fast paced world but we need to circle back to wintering. Wintering is that time when we slow down, reflect, rest, restore, heal, and practice deep creativity so that whe...

Sometimes we can feel all wound up as if we are a rope all tied in knots. Whether this be mental or emotional this can be reflected in our bodies and a great way to unwind it all is to begin with the physical body. Join Lucy and I as we explore "knotted to unwound" poses in our bodies - making ...

Each day we awaken we begin with new energy - what will we do with it, how will we use it, how long will it last, how do we conserve it for emergencies? Some will use all of their energy in a big outpouring and others will trickle it out as a precious resource and others will vary between one en...
