I find music, movement and gathering with others to sing to be the best medicine. I trust that we all want to feel a sense of belonging, safety and prosperity.

The US is likely on the precipice of an expansion of consciousness, and yet we are in a dark night of the soul, as are so many on the planet. Where fear and violence against others and the earth are taking a great toll.

Melanie DeMore wrote this song in 2016 after the election: https://youtu.be/jJEFXpS_xPs?si=NbFb6FJc6IIN0GcQ

Find your tribe, move your body, find some quiet, some simple joy, feel your feelings and be kind to yourself and others.

I am practicing grounding, acceptance, trust, wonder and look for opportunities to help others who are in despair.

Let’s put one foot in front of the other and discover what helps us move forward. 💛

Had the honor of playing as an alternate with these women. It was a new experience for me to play 3 days in a row - 18 each day. I’d do it again!
Also had the experience of coming back from a challenging round, besting my score by 15 strokes from the previous day.
Vermont was a great host. Weather was ideal. Golf course was in immaculate shape. And the views were so beautiful!
Congratulations VT for winning the match!
We’ll see about getting the trophy back next year.

WINTER GRIEF

Let the rest
in this rested place
rest for you.

Let the birds sing quietly
and the geese call
from far off
and let the sky race
from west to east
when you cannot
lift a wing to fly.

Let evening trace
your loss in the branches
against a fading sky.

So that you can give up
and give in
and be given back to,

so that you can let
winter come and live
fully inside you,
so that you can
retrace the loving path
of heartbreak
that brought you here.

So you can cry alone
and be alone
so you can let yourself alone
to be lost,

so you can let the one
you have lost alone,
so that you can let
the one you have lost
have their own life
and even
their own death
without you.

So that the world
and everyone who has ever lived
and ever died can come and go
as they please.

So you can let yourself not know,
what not knowing means.

So that you can be
even more generous in your letting go
than they were in their leaving.

So that you can let winter
be winter.
So that you can let the world alone
to think of spring.

WINTER GRIEF
From THE BELL AND THE BLACKBIRD
Poetry by David Whyte

..

The grief of losing a loved one, the need to walk, to remember, to heal when you cannot heal, to remember what you do not wish to remember. The unconscious call for invisible help, and the not knowing consciously, how, in any way, to ask for it, the way everything refuses to console until we are ready for that consolation. The way winter turns to spring. DW

Starting December 10th, 2023, 6:30 - 8:00 pm EST, we will start the first monthly psychedelic integration group on Zoom. You're invited to share, listen and support in a safe container that we co-create.
Attendance is open to everyone at no cost (optional donation of $1-25) Feel free to share this with anyone you think may be interested.
Please contact me by email: mindfulguidance@protonmail.com to receive the Zoom link.
Integration is not psychotherapy. Some psychedelic experiences leave an impression, much like an impression in the earth when we plant seeds. These take more time and attention to nurture the seedlings that emerge over time. Patience is helpful. Other times, the post-journey segment of time is more akin to weathering a storm. Information from the subconscious can be activated, intense dreams emerge and we can feel unseated and confused.
It is wise to seek support for integrating all medicine journeys – the ones that feel positive and the ones that leave us feeling confused, distraught, or struggling in some way.
For more about integration and the aim of this group, click this article I wrote:

Together we can hold space for processing and healing.

And a poem:

“When despair for the world grows in me
And I wake in the night at the least sound
In fear of what my life and my children’s lives may be,

I go and lie down where the wood drake rests
in his beauty on the water,
And the great heron feeds.

I come into the peace of wild things
Who do not tax their lives with forethought of grief.
I come into the presence
of still water.
And I feel above me the day-blind stars
Waiting with their light. For a time
I rest in the grace of the world, and am free.”

-Wendell Berry
