Sculptures of resilience in Nature... This is one of the many Giant Sequoia tree beings that I encountered high up in Yosemite Nat'l Park at he Mariposa Grove... What struck me about this one, along with many others, was the scarring on its immense body, created with forest fires and self-healing of its bark... The largest of these trees are more than 2,000 years old and on average, it's said that there's a forest fire every 20 years... so imagine how many fires these trees endure and … [Read more...]

Choice... We always have the ability to choose every single moment. It's easy to fall into unconscious patterns of choice... However, with awareness, we have the power to change life as we know it... A very simple example is how we react to our external world. When we choose a different reaction than what automatically comes up from conditioning, we suddenly change a pattern and THAT is a very powerful thing!... This can be applied to all situations in everyday life. Just one … [Read more...]

Bird love is in the air!... Ahhhh... I so truly love hearing the love songs of Nature! Just these past couple of days, the endearing Black-Capped Chickadees have started singing their mating calls!... These cheerful little birds spend the whole year in central Canada, weathering the most intense cold of winter!... and amazingly, they begin to call out for mates as early as February, still in the middle of winter! Their clear notes that echo on the winter landscape as they sing to … [Read more...]

Absence enhances the experience... It was an overcast day all day... Then just as I stepped outside for a Nature walk, the sun appeared at the horizon below the blanket of clouds and my oh my did it look even more radiant!!!... A blazing orange colour with pink hues... bathing the trees in a golden light... (interestingly, the camera didn't capture the sun's colours) Every experience we perceive with our physical and spiritual senses, as well as our mind and emotions, becomes … [Read more...]

Miracles... When we have an awareness of Nature in a way that we truly see it for what it is... it's apparent that miracles are a natural part of life and not something that manifests once in a while... When we see the divinity in all life, we recognize miracles EVERYWHERE... including in the mirror... Every second of our life we experience and witness miracles, from the subtle to the extraordinary, and every one is just as glorious in its own right... Every blade of grass, every … [Read more...]

Divine timing... There IS such a thing as divinely perfect timing, regardless who we are or what our paths require of us... No matter how impatient we might feel at times, having that higher awareness and wisdom from experience allows us to enjoy the journey that much more... We just know when we've reached that divine timing because things just fall into place with the least amount of effort. We just have to trust and go with the flow... Just like these beautiful nestlings in … [Read more...]

Feeling the call... We all have the ability to perceive energies. It's obvious when we enter a room and we immediately feel what the mood is, based on the people present. It's pure energy. The more we fine tune this ability through conscious awareness, the stronger it becomes, and we're able to perceive energies from around the world. Energy has no boundaries. For two decades I've been allowing places to call me to plan my trips and even places of residence. I always know where I must … [Read more...]

Unexpected wonders... Our world is overflowing with divine wonders at all times... When we choose to perceive our world as though everything is experienced for the first time, every day feels like a gift and we're more receptive to noticing miracles, magick and wonders... When we walk with an open heart, the world around us responds and we receive treasured moments and connections that would have been missed otherwise... When I was visiting a sacred Navajo canyon in Arizona, I … [Read more...]

Sacred co-creations... There's something quite magickal about creating our own "anything". They become sacred manifestations... I can always tell if something was mass produced, created as part of a "the quicker the better" agreement, or created with loving intention and care. Whether it's furniture, a piece of jewellery, a meal, a painting, a house, foods, perfume, clothing, a sculpture, a yard, etc... There's a beautiful energy and soul to things created from inspiration with passion … [Read more...]

Even small and subtle is powerful... When we live from a place of loving appreciation, our world expands to include even the smallest and most subtle things that usually go unnoticed, that can make all the difference in our day and for others... The glistening dewdrop of rainbow colours on a blade of grass... a kind word... an intricate little snowflake that lands on your mitten... a warm, loving smile... a tiny feather dancing in the breeze... love shining through eye contact... a small … [Read more...]
