As those of you who have read my blog for a while, you know that I was very sick two years ago. What I haven’t spoken about is that during the time I was writing a book. I have written for years, and I have started several books, and I have not completed them. To satisfy my urge, I have synthesiz

I have been going to Maine regularly since I was a young child. For almost all of my life, there was a huge convent that overlooked the end of the beach. When I was a child, I used to imagine that it was a castle and that some day I could live in it like a princess. For years when I was older, I

The past two weeks, near me, we have had two beautiful celestial phenomena. The first was an amazing display of the northern lights, which glowed even as far south as Connecticut, where I live. The second was a comet named Atlas who scientists believe comes around only every 80 thousand years or s

Last week, I went to a beautiful dance performance at the Hillstead museum . The weather was perfect and the performance by Lauren Horn and her dance company was sublime! It was advertised as an hour performance, but after 40 minutes, the performance drew to a close. Initially I was disappoin

One of the elements of this journey, like all journeys, is that it has not followed a straight path. There are times when things are going swimmingly and other times, things go off the rails. I have been telling about successes, but I wanted to acknowledge that there have been many setbacks. It’s

As many of you know, I used to travel quite frequently. I have close family members who live a flight away, and I also lead international spiritual journeys. My favorite journey is down the Camino de Santiago in Spain. I talk and write incessantly about the joys and lessons of pilgrimage, and this

Today, I was reflecting on how we live so many lifetimes in our own time alive. Some people might call these phases of life or generations, but I have really come to see them as lifetimes. You know what I mean, if you sit back and reflect on your own life. You can remember how it was to be young

A few weeks ago, I went to Kripalu for a workshop with Maria Sirois entitled “Finding Happiness in Difficult Times.” She is a positive psychologist, and she doled out various tips and tidbits to carry yourself through life in general, particularly when it gets challenging. One of the things that...

Today, as I was teaching a yoga class, I was struck (again) by how many opportunities we have to just begin again. This year in particular, it feels like we are always celebrating some new year or new season or new moon cycle. This week, it was Spring, the astrological new year, and the new moon,

Now is the time of year when many of us sit down and reflect on how to move forward into the new year - a time for fresh starts. Perhaps you have found yourself doing this kind of reflection yourself. What are you thinking about? Stepping into your authentic self? Eating better? More exercise? I ha
