Your Otherworld Task
Every autumn there is a deep, fire-lit opportunity to make a lasting change in your life. As the Earth shifts through her colors, you have the ability to shift just as rapidly in your own evolution and expansion. Change is possible all year-round, of course, but when the distance between the worlds thins in autumn, you’re able…

How I Healed from Lyme disease
Chronic illness has been a part of my journey in this life. It’s been my greatest challenger, the genesis of my darkest nights—and my greatest spiritual teacher.

This can be challenging—but it can also be spectacular. Being open means you can feel the height of a sunrise. The deep, wordless wisdom in a whale song. The joy of two…
Can I Send you a Book?

I carried my five-month old in circles around the garden, picking peppermint leaves with every turn. Then, it came out…and it was one of the…
