The Seed of the Future

I have been Head of the House all week as Norm was away in Ghana until yesterday. I often say I hate having responsibilities, that they give me anxiety as I always feel like I am forgetting something. Sort of like when you wake up late and you feel like you need to hurry all …

Nurturing Touch & Sound

Do you ever have one of those days that just feels blissfully perfect from start to end? I did last Saturday. First of all the weather was clear so I could pray to the 7 Directions outside on my hill when I woke up. Then I attended our women's group from 9:00 until 12:30 and …

Inadvertently Prepared

I have mentioned before that Norm is doing an investigation into my family tree? You can read my previous post here. He is making great progress and just today has now followed my father's lineage back to the 1500s and linked us to King James of Scotland. In 1530/1533 Princess Jean Elizabeth of Scotland, Kelso …

Being Vulnerable

Why do strangers feel like it is acceptable to touch others? I am not good with random strangers touching me. I am not even good with people I know touching me if I am not prepared for it or fond of them. On Monday I went with Norm to the hospital as he was having …

Water and Release

Last weekend was such a lovely vibe, starting so fabulously with the Organic Magic Project Event on Friday. Then on Saturday Norm drove me out to Scarborough to say goodbye to Tass my beloved teacher. Norm is always willing to be my transport as he knows how driving makes me so anxious but he is …

Analysts and Empaths

Last Saturday we had a huge rain storm. I mentioned that our drum rehearsal was cancelled and then Caitlin messaged to say she was going to pop by for a chat. I had not seen her in a while so it was good to catch up with her and hear about what is happening in …

The Tears of a Clown

I have been on such a buzz with life at the moment. So many wonderful things are happening and the results of my intentions set recently are now coming at me quickly. I asked for more women in my life and I spent last weekend with so many new women I had never met and …

Just Because You Can

Not to be trite, but you know the phrase 'just because you can, does not mean you should'? Usually it is served with a side of shade or body shaming, but in this instance I am using it to refer to managing the household on my own. I coped perfectly fine with Norm away and …

If You Can’t Love Yourself…….

RuPaul says it best. "If you can't love yourself then how the hell are you gonna love somebody else?" The root of so many mental health issues is lack of self-confidence, self-love or conversely, self-loathing. I saw this quote: It's not through healing that you will love yourself. It's through loving yourself, that you will …

Sins of the Fathers

The mistreatment and abuse of Indigenous children has been in the news this week. In British Columbia's Interior, the Tk’emlúps te Secwépemc First Nation has found the remains of 125 children, some as young as 3, on the site of what used to be Canada’s largest residential school.  Built on the territory of the Tk’emlúps te …
