There are no words to express the beauty of this temple and what transpired here for me today. Pictures do no justice.

Sacred is sacred. No matter if you practice religion or not.

Intention is everything. Tradition and ritual hold intention.
If we drop down into the teachings, into the energy, then what matters is how you feel, what you hear, how you transform.

It has nothing to do with worship, in my opinion. It is reverence and willingness to be with the self, with tradition, and allow yourself to open to other ways of doing things, of other words and ways of hearing things.

Interestingly, my guide today didn’t tell me much about the temple or what usually happened there, until after we left He said he was guided to let me feel it.

We did the ritual of incense, flowers, asking what my purpose was there today. There were offerings and a specific way of doing things. I don’t usually do religious rituals like this, but it was profound.

What I felt, what I experienced. It made me lighter. It made me feel more free, and it helped to tap me back into me after the MOST intense two months.

In short, I feel more myself. I feel better. I am so grateful!

And for my dragon lovers, there were so many dragons there! Along the walkways, dragon tails lined the path. They were at the entrance of almost everything.

But it was called bat cave temple. Because a portion of the temple sits back in a bat cave and it was SO WONDERFUL to be there.

Then I went to another temple to purify. There are no photos of that because it was pouring rain and nobody needed to see me in that sarong putting my face and head under spouts of water that were able to make me feel so purified I could actually see better as well as feel lighter even more.

This cat like creature deserves its very own post. It’s called a lewak. It eats an Arabica coffee bean from the bush or the ground, although there are other coffee varieties available. That’s the only coffee bean it likes. As the bean moves through its digestive system it ferments. It gets p**ped out. Someone then picks up the p**p, dries it, washes it thoroughly and dries it again. Then they remove the skin from the bean, roast it and make coffee that’s less acidic than if it didn’t go through that process. Crazy town!
Here is me trying a flight of coffee and some teas that were pretty delicious, healing and a bit more normal.

This is the first Hindu temple I’ve ever visited. One of the 9 gates here in Bali. I’ll do my best to get to the other 8.
I’ll learn more about this as I go.
I love all the sacred sights.
There were monkeys!
My guide, Diwa, is the best. He took me to the beach, to the weirdest coffee situation (that has its very own post), to this temple, and helped me track down all the final things I needed to finish settling in.

I’ve landed in the home I’ll stay in for the rest of September. It will probably take another day or two to get adjusted to this part of the island. I’m feeling safe and more at ease.

I’m telling people I’m going on sabbatical.

It’s not really a sabbatical. I just don’t know what else to call it. Nobody is paying me, but there will be personal and professional development. What makes it not a sabbatical is, I am happy to work a few hours per week over zoom.

I am doing some volunteering at Chenrezig, a Buddhist temple on the Sunshine Coast in Australia. There is another volunteer opportunity in Bali, but I won’t decide whether I do that or not until I get to there. Believe it or not, I have a friend who will be in Bali for the last few days I am there and the Buddhist community was recommended by two friends that don’t know each other.

If you have known me for any length of time, you know travel has been a big part of my life since I was in my early 20’s. But longer ago than that even, when I was 6 years old in 1978, my father took a truck and converted it into a sleeping / traveling SUV type situation (before that was even a thing) and my family spent a whole summer driving across the US, living in this vehicle and in a hotel in LA for a while when my dad went to school. I vividly remember my connection to the different lands even as a child.

Travel is part of who I am. I have visited four other continents so far and been all over this one a few times.

I haven’t been anywhere different since 2019, and I just don’t feel right.

There is a lot more written on the blog and there’s a link to that in my bio

It’s been such a beautiful home and life for my son and me.
The bar in the kitchen was perfect for him to eat breakfast while I packed his lunch and we got ready for the day. Great neighbors, quiet street, big back yard.

Proud isn’t quite a good enough word for what I feel about this man /child.
We had such a wonderful time celebrating Ethan.
He is an honor grad, an athlete and an all around good human
We didn’t teach him gratitude, he thanked my dad for every bite he was fed when he was still in a high chair. But we fostered it.
We didn’t create the measured way he thinks, I noticed his attention to detail and his determined mind when he was calculating how to jump down off the back of the couch without hurting himself as a tiny person
We didn’t make him kind and helpful, but we fostered all those things in him. We gave him opportunity, and we took him places, we fed him in ways to support his mind, and I loved him with everything I had every day, and I have loved every minute of being his mother.
UAB is getting a good one and I’m excited and curious to see how this next phase of life shapes you.
I love you

I had to share this poem by Christopher Sexton who shares his writing over on Threads

every cell in your body
is listening.
not to your thoughts.
but to your belief about them.
do you speak like your body is a burden
or a beloved?
i spent years thinking health was a hustle.
but health,
real health,
is a romance.
a slow dance.
a lifelong love letter
to the ecosystem inside you
begging
to be seen
as sacred.

I absolutely love it when has a dance and I get to do the flowers. There’s always an abundance for me too.

Spring is wonderful
Cleavers are coming up. They are that long sticky w**d that grabs onto your clothes or shoes.
The medicine they carry helps to clear the lymphatic system after the winter.
Pick some, immerse them in water and put in the fridge over night.
They taste so fresh and slightly sweet.
I’ll probably make cleaver water for gathering Wednesday evening
Register for the sound bath and immerse your system in the frequency of curiosity and rebirth

2024 was filled with stories from clients and friends who have been mistreated, abused or held back from healing by those they went to for healing.

Whether it was a massage therapist, talk therapist or someone else, I’m sorry it happened. When you are vulnerable and go to someone for support or healing, there is a power dynamic, and when that someone crosses a line, it is horrific for your nervous system. The pain it causes is often worse than you can put words on at the time.

Two people came to me after a full year of trying to reconcile it on their own.

I want to create a safe space, where we can sit together, be in community and know you are not alone. We will, over the months, work with the nervous system to heal, become aware and stop this from happening again.

Reach out via messenger or text if you have my number if you’d like to join this week or any of the monthly gatherings.

Please share this with any friends who may need support

My Remembering

I was lying in bed one night, 9 years old, thinking about my unusual experiences. I had only told a few family members about them. I was met with strange looks when I asked what it sounded like when god talked to them. I couldn’t explain the sensations of lightness that I would feel in my arms and my head. Or how I understood complex emotional situations in adults.

While lying there, still, I wondered if I could induce those sensations. I realized I could. I then figured that if I could turn them on, I could turn them off and I did.

Right then and there. I decided to be “normal”.

It was also about that time that I started to throw up a lot. Then as a teenager I developed worse conditions. In my 20’s resorting to surgeries and taking medications, to try to bring my body back in balance. Finally, I decided to have a hysterectomy in my early 30’s.
