A Meditation in Walking

Contrary to popular belief, meditation doesn’t have to happen alone in a room, in full lotus, body silent and still.
No, in fact sometimes the most satisfying meditations happen on your feet, outdoors and covering ground.  Certainly, by now, we are all aware of the benefits of walking.  It has been the foundation to many a [...]

My Husband Has Honey In His Nose….

Tonight, as I was having a conversation with husband, I noticed something dripping from his nose. “Jeez Louise, you’ve got a big greenie hangin’, go blow you’re nose, man! You’ve got something dripping from your nose….” I mentioned quietly, indicating subtlely towards his probiscus.

If It’s Good Enough for Oprah….

I think by now everyone is familiar with Oprah’s revelatory January ‘09 issue where she essentially came out of the closet about “falling off the wagon”.   While I, along with millions of others, have followed her weight loss battles over the past two decades, I found this admission, accomampanied by the before and after picture [...]

Spend Some Time in The Gap… Meditate!

The Gap.  It’s not just at the mall… no, it’s also the place that is the silence between your thoughts… a place few, if any, of us even know exists, let alone visit.
But it doesn’t have to be that way.
Meditation can be the path that allows us a way in which to access this space.  [...]
