All Will Be Well
Not knowing much more than her famous prayer “All will be well”, I was curious to learn more about this mystic priestess, Julian of Norwich, whose feast day is celebrated on May 13th. After reading both Britannica’s and Wikipedia’s accounts on Julian, this writing caught my eye. “All Will Be Well: The Radical Optimism of…
Read MoreMusings in the Midst of Growth and Change
Have you ever woken up in the morning and just wanted to cancel the day? Feeling off and not in the mood to talk to people, go about with work responsibilities, even go for a walk? All things I enjoy normally! That was this morning. And, I had an exercise appointment, a blog deadline, incomplete…
Read MoreDancing with Shadows
This February full moon is highlighting our brilliance. And as much as we are uncomfortable with vulnerable showing/sharing of our shadows, we are often equally uncomfortable with owning our Brilliance. As we move from February into March the theme shifts to honoring ALL of us. Equally. In honor of the Equinox and equanimity, expansion and…
Read MoreSimple Abundance
Playing such a huge role in our world is the fallacy of scarcity. We steel ourselves and train ourselves and treat ourselves like there’s not enough. We are not enough. (I am not enough _____, or too much ______) There is not enough love. Or energy or time Or resources. Or money or food or…
Read MoreWhere is Your Heart Guiding You?
I’ve been asking myself a lot lately, “What do you want, Deborah? Yes, and under that, what do you REALLY want?” My answers aren’t clearly written out for me or come in an image or picture, they are more of a group of sensations…a softening in my belly and chest, a relaxed jaw and neck/shoulders…an…
Read MoreFreedom to Let Go
It’s July. And typically July for me has always had a theme of freedom. And as I explore that whole topic of freedom. It feels like it falls into several layers. There’s the actual reflection on what it is that I want to be liberated from. Then there’s the action or allowing, of the liberation,…
Read MoreFreedom, Liberation, Sovereignty
How do you define Freedom? (let me know, I’m curious!) I believe it has to do with a state that is felt after liberation. And a remembering that we are all Sovereign Beings. Liberation from fears, tendencies, patterns, structures, and belief systems that no longer serve. Sovereignty, for me, is a feeling that I try…
Read MoreThe Importance of Structure and the Need to Destroy it at Times.
One of the ways that we can integrate our rational and intuitive sides, or our spiritual and physical sides, or whatever duality that we play in, is to recognize each for their gifts and their shadows. Actually I think we dwell in more of a quadrality. I believe that we have distinct heart, soul, mind,…
Read MoreSacred Success
What if Success was as sacred and singular, as each and every one of us? What if there is such a way of being seen And being safe? Very often there’s a polarity, that we tend to jump in between. I’m confident. I’m out there I am letting people know who I am and what…
Read MoreFeminine Traits and the Art of Active Receptivity
Receptivity, or as I like to call it, the Art of Receiving, is not just a surrendering into stillness, it’s often more active than that. Out of the Feminine Traits of Receptivity, Creating, Nurturing, Connecting, Circular Thinking, and Being in Flow, I find Receiving the most difficult for me. Receiving (or Allowing), requires opening. Softening.…
