Summer Solstice felt like it had an extra kick of magic this year ✨🌺🌻🎴

Calling in a continued flow of opportunities to create, dance and make music with our stellar community out here in Alberton ~ some days I can’t actually believe this is my life 🤩 and what a life we’ve all co-created out here together 🙌

Sound bathing the community was such a treat as well. Endless gratitude for my partner in sound .yoga.sound and thank you for the invitation to be a part of your vision.

A little additional footage of and opening up the dance floor on Saturday night. No video of and her hubby doing their thing later, but my goodness was it was epic!

Cheers to more as we cross over this high point of the sun and year 🥂🌞🌄

It’s been a little over seven months since I spent a November day walking the mountain behind my home, from sun up to sun down.

I have revisited some of the special spots that drew me in that day since, whenever I’ve needed the reminders of the lessons spoken to me that day.

Today the mama elk remains, that last autumn asked to be reunited with her body, and later her baby, stood out to me again…a reminder to keep grounded in my commitments to myself and my children.
Stay out of your head.
Notice when you start sorting people or experiences into boxes, to ease your mind or make sense of things you don’t know.
Ground into what’s real and stable.
The rest will fall into place. Or it won’t.
Either way, I have my foundation.

Sunny St John’s Wort flowers popping out of the hillside added a bright reminder of the sun’s capacity to shine through us all.

When I got to the Wild roses by the springs, I saw that I had missed collecting the bulk of their petals.
Instead slowly plumping rose hips promised to be there for me in late summer, when my heart may be more ready for her medicine again.

The rain poured this Summer Solstice, saturating every step of the way.
Yet even without the sunlight,
the radiance of this time of year was palpable.
And the arrival of yet another mile marker in the year was felt.

A year ago, if you’d told me I’d feel this happy and alive, I wouldn’t have believed you. I got up the other morning, meditated and dictated two poems into my phone. I read poetry every evening, watching the sunset from my porch. Most days I wind down peacefully at a regular time, others I stay up all night making art with dear friends, jamming to music under the stars. And I sing, all the time, while dancing in my kitchen.

2024-2025 showed me that the death of something you think you want more than anything in the world, really can bring about the most beautiful rebirth of something new, and more inspiring than you could have ever imagined. I feel emancipated, free from obsessive problem solving and what I thought had to be. Each day brings more insight, and every relationship I nurture a different flavor of joy.

I feel this in my partner I parted from as well. It’s truly wonderful watching him walk his own way in the new life he’s carved out for himself. 💚

If you find yourself holding on too tight, here’s your encouragement to let go. It really might surprise you more than you think, when you loosen your grip and feel into the space on the other side ~

Summer updates 🌸🐝🪻

As the weather warms, .yoga.sound and I will be still be pausing our monthly gatherings. However we will be offering our restorative yoga + sound sessions in two special installments. One in partnership with on June 22nd. The other will be a collaboration with my neighbors in August (date TBA).

And a personal announcement 📣
I will be in the old Red Willow building sharing a space starting June 17th, offering CranioSacral Theraoy (CST) sessions! To start out, I will be offering these some Tuesday evenings and Thursdays, as my summer schedule allows; as I build clientele I may open up more dates at that location. DM me if you’d like to know more or get on the schedule 🙏

I am also opening up some afternoon times at my place if you want to get away to the yurt 🛖

More soon…🌙

“You shall be free indeed when your days are not without care, nor your nights without a want or a grief,

But rather when these things girdle your life and yet you rise above them, naked and unbound.”

~ On Freedom, Kahlil Gibran

Freedom
Open
Clear
Unbound

For love, for me,
For the creative itch we both needed to scratch.

This afternoon with my friend was priceless.

Thinking of you today, Mom.
You would have been 76.
The first flowers are popping up in your garden, here and at the home you shared with Dad.
He brought you your first daffodil of the season and some chocolate, of course.

It felt like a good day to burn some sh*t…you always seemed to enjoy a good spring cleaning.
You didn’t hold on unnecessarily, you let go.
You went after what you wanted.
You followed your inspiration, made the plan and executed it.
Took the trip, traveled the world.
You made the leap out here with me too…

I have security in this place now in good part because of you…and I’m also not going to let it tie me down.
I’m going to use it as a launch pad into the next adventure.

It was good to purge today.
Burning boards once hoarded to build dreams, now grooved with carpenter ant channels.
It’s hard to let go of materials and the things we wanted to create with them, but we did today. Dead weight, dissolved.
Old dreams released to create space for some new ones stirring in my heart.

Thank you, for always showing up. We’re getting it done 🙏
Mom would have been proud.

Tap into the feminine, they said.
Find yourself a man or lover who holds that “masculine space”, so you can spread out and flourish, they said.
Someone who allows you the space to feel comfortable in your own skin.
A man you don’t have to mother, who’s emotionally in tune with himself, you, and his surroundings.

The problem with this messaging?
It’s focused on another person, and communicating somehow that the key to unlocking our wisdom is dependent on another.

In the beginning of 2024, I had several trainings come to me. I love to learn, it can be an expensive addiction, but there’s worse things, right? I enjoy circling up with a group to study, analyze, process and dive deep together.

The training, and subsequent journey, I ended up choosing to embark on, wasn’t my typical choice. It wasn’t something to intentionally add to my skillsets or make myself more marketable as a practitioner or business owner.

It was a journey into myself, where I created space to make art again…just for the sake of making art.

I was asked to spend time in nature connecting, listening and journeying with allies I didn’t even know I had.

At the beginning I was skeptical. “I don’t need a training for that.”

Turns out, I did. And what I found was through some regular practice connecting with nature and creativity, my connection with myself and my love for the community I have grew bigger than any romantic love I’ve ever experienced.

I became whole in a whole new way, my values and inner voice so loud that I actually can’t ignore them now. I can’t force myself into alignment with something that is 95% right. I need 100%

I was reminded that my divine feminine power is in community.
It is in personal connections.
It’s in being a mother, and an individual.

Nature is louder now. Eagles crying in the morning and geese gently honking at night.
Ponderosa, yarrow sprigs, worms in the fresh rain, spiders scuttling out of hibernation and hummingbirds returning from the south.

When I’m present with these things, I’m present with my wisdom, my voice and my actions. I can witness the richness of life with gratitude and be in a strong, feminine space, all on my own.

Happy Lunar New Year, friends! 🐍 🪵

Snake years bring us a new opportunity to metaphorically die so we can be reborn again. Shed your skin. Feel renewed. The wood element adds some flexibility and the power to adapt to necessary change. Wood = flexible? As one blog I read so eloquently said, think of a tree blowing in the wind. I think of my own hikes on the mountainside behind Wildlight, and how trees curve and bend to the elements, yet stay rooted and continue to grow.

If you subscribe to our newsletter, check your inbox for some more astrological tidbits as well as information on February’s offerings with .somaticconnections and .yoga.sound here at the yurt.

Looking forward to another year of community offerings ✨🌑🐍

Some days just feel melancholy. Shades of indigo have felt powerful to me recently, channeling animal ally magic, but today simply felt blue…the season reminding me it’s been two years now since my mom crossed over. Feeling the weight of my choices and uncertainty of the road ahead. I wish I could hug her again and feel like it’s all going to be okay. I miss her more than I have words for. 💛🩵💙
