"Life means struggle...Struggle keeps us aware and active, and bestows true knowledge...it leads us from darkness to light, from ignorance to knowledge, and from death to immortality..."
- excerpts from Swami Kripalu in America

“Have patience with everything that remains unsolved in your heart. Try to love the questions themselves, like locked rooms and like books written in a foreign language. Do not now look for the answers. They cannot now be given to you because you could not live them. It is a question of experiencing everything. At present you need to live the questions. Perhaps you will gradually, without even noticing it, find yourself experiencing the answer, some distant day..."
-Rainer Maria Rilke

To notice

"If we are learning to live mindfully we will see all the ways we live un-mindfully...allowing us an opportunity to change and recreate our response to life..."

"When you understand who and what you are, your radiance projects into the universal radiance and everything around you becomes creative and full of opportunity..."

Flow of Energy


An alchemy art of healing
To unlock ones fullest infinite potential

A view inside the self
Outside looking in
Inside looking out
To see the universe
All in one the same

This unseen force hidden from deep within becomes awakened
A magnetic field is formed where
the power of life surges from head to toe
and the ancient primal self becomes stimulated
An activation that vibrates every cell.
Pathways through the body
Moving form the intuitive heart and
painting pictures with the potency of the mind
An auspicious artist sculpting truth
Crafting reality
Do.See.Practice.Experience
The ember burning
turns to a sacred dance of devotion
A freedom trail
Living into questions
into possibility
Free being…Free to be you and me…

And…now what is the next step
Traveling in new directions
With beginner eyes
North-South-East-West…and beyond
Present to the unfolding of the mysterious
The connection deepens and this journey has no end
A continuous evolution
Extending visions of life
Fearless expressions from the soul
Observing death within while completely alive
All the while listening to whispers
      from the vital energies beneath the surface…

Different, weird, intriguing, life, death, art, emotion....

"love always...life flashes by if you do not love..."

A beginners mind
We learn through experience, seeing, doing, and practicing
Flow can not happen through the thinking mind
In the creation of our reality
and connection to this innate flow that resides within all
we must plug in and move from the intuitive heart
to unlock the fullest potential of expression

Dialog with this being


A spinning wheel of vitality
Circling round and round
A vibrational pulse surges through the trees
into the body…to the depths of the waters
Swirling passion of existence creates open space
With each full breath into this life
a renewed prosperity

Surveying the terrain
A compassionate presence to the whole self
Living in this skin
Celestial visions from the inside out
A dialog with this being once lost begins again

Touch to connect
An intrinsic connection
Heart to heart
Supreme beauty infuses every cell
Traveling a path of love
Where devotional prayers spread across the mountainside
Mouth wide open
Free expression in the purest form…fully complete

A guide sent from above
Unearthing the map
To walk side by side
Hand in hand
The roadway through the body leads to
Discovery of self

In moments of stillness
There is a shift in perception
A state of curiosity
Who are you
and what do you want me to know…
Listening with all senses
Can you see the unseen
Hear the language of spirit
and can you feel the imprints on your soul…

Leaning back into your embrace
Contract and Release
Letting go and
letting go one more time…
Pause…Attending to messages spoken from the heart
            Inhaling into possibility…

"The unintegrated past is constantly arising in moments of our present, not as punishment, but as an opportunity for us to resolve it and heal ourselves. Each old pattern and belief is exposed time and time again offering us chances to shine the light of consciousness on it..."

"Imagine how confident you would be if you knew people would embrace you no matter who you become...
and imagine how confident you will be if you know
you’ll embrace yourself,
no matter who you become..."
