What to Do About Chaos and Despair

Image quote by author Jackson Kiddard Today is September 30. I write this from my historic town of Beaufort by the Sea, in North Carolina. It’s pouring down rain. Florida has just been through a historic hurricane. We offer prayers and help as we can for those who have been devastated Devastation comes in many forms. Call it chaos.

Six Ways to Pause + Honor the Summer Solstice

Tapping Into the Intelligence of the Universe Greetings Honoring you today and the Wheel of the Year which attunes you to the cycles and rhythms of life’s sacred flow.

The first breath, the period of inhalations and exhalations we call life, and then the last breath. By attuning to this cycle and…

A Personal Story Plus a Few Gems for Nurses

Greetings Beloved Soul Everyone is in such a hurry. Like the rabbit in Alice In Wonderland. “I’m late, I’m late, for a very important date.” We’ve been programmed by modern technology to get it all instantly. Whatever it is.
