Is there a way back to things in the past known as “ common sense”, “being reasonable”, “being human” ?

We believe in connections with Mother Planet, with the energy of nature, as well as with other parts of the world and cultures. Our existence, as well as our survival, depends on our collective abilities not on our individual minds.

Dear community, it is becoming clear there is a growing need for mental health services during this difficult time. We want to make sure that everyone knows mental health video sessions (Telehealth) are covered by insurances during this time, including copays. There is an incredible growth in unemployment, DV, su***de attempts, hospitalizations, and addictions. Now is the time for people to connect to a mental health provider so they are not alone in this. The insurance companies have supported opening up all the channels to make sure Telehealth is covered during this pandemic. This includes Care Oregon (OHP). We gotta get the word out. Please share this post with as many people as you can. And let people know Connections First has openings and we are available to provide immediate care. (www.connectionsfirst.org) Thank you and stay strong.

...and breathe....

...and I did, i did sit in the ash last night, I did mourn and felt sad like it’s my job. I still do. The planet is suffering, people are suffering, and I sit in my sessions here with people thinking "it should be me on that couch", and "what can I say to you that would offer some relief?". Nothing. Instead we both sit in sadness and we grieve. Knowing it's not enough but it's enough for now and needed at times like these.

Oregon is on fire. Ash fell from the sky last night like a blizzard. We saw the sun today, a dim ball of deepest orange through the smokey sky, and I let my kids have All the Screens and Not Wear P…

Living with integrity is not easy. Living with integrity to and with your Self is even harder. But the most important task to practice daily in order to develop and maintain a fulfilling life.

At home. At work. In our communities. In our democracy.

This article is not going to make you sad, it will rather inspire you to live YOUR life.

This will make you think about what's truly important in life...do you agree?

Nowadays, more than ever, important to practice opening our minds and hearts to experiences of others

I see, on daily basis, people getting ill because they hold their truth in. They choose to hold it in, to hurt alone with it inside themselves, out of fear that their truth will hurt others. If your truth hurts them then it's theirs to do something with it. Yours is the responsibility, to self and others, to release that truth and to live healthy, free, and with integrity. Choose wisely

My friend Nadia Bolz-Weber once told me, "You are responsible TO the truth, but not FOR it." Agreed.

Learn your truth, sit with it, own it, express it. Then: You're done! No defending or babysitting your truth once you release it. What other people say, think or do with it is none of your business! Because the second your truth hits someone else it gets mixed up with all her stuff and it's not yours anymore, anyway. So Let it be.

Anyway, let the truth exist outside of your body so you can get some breathing room and maybe even support. Whatever that problem you have is, it belongs to millions of others, too. Nothing new under the sun. No shame. Only freedom.
