This website includes my blog and some static pages about my yoga classes and my bodywork and change work sessions. There’s an About me page as well. Check ‘em out if you’re so inclined!
So my blog is about wellness, well-being, and wholeness, however they show up in our bodies, minds, hearts, and/or spirits (which of course aren’t separate at all, but aspects of our wholeness which come to the foreground of our awareness and thus may seem separate).
I started writing my second blog, about meditation and my intent to sit daily, in 2010. (The first blog was pure practice.) During that year, I also wrote posts on yoga and breathing, and later added posts about other topics related to well-being.
By the end of 2010, it seemed obvious that the blog had become more about well-being than about meditation. I redid the categories and renamed the blog. I began adding tags to each post, which helps the search engines find me (and the Tag Cloud widget is pretty fun, too). The blog has a new look as well.
Actually, I want you to know that I’m just making it all up as I go along, sharing what inspires and motivates and informs and expands me with my readers. I like to investigate stuff that interests me (especially well-being, health, bliss, and joy), and I like to be of service.
Other times I’ll write about what’s up in my life, write about books and films I connect with, link to interesting articles and videos, and stuff like that. Well-being is expansive!
Thanks for your interest! If you feel so moved, I accept donations. So far, this blog has been a pure labor of love. I enjoy reciprocity with readers, whether that shows up as comments, likes, subscriptions, shares, or donations.
I love getting comments on my blog posts!
I write in solitude while imagining real people being interested in what I write. To actually get relevant feedback from a real person who connected with something I wrote is very, very sweet.
If you’re new to blog reading, you can comment on a post by clicking “Leave a comment” below the post, entering your comment, and clicking “Post comment”.
You can click “Like” at the top of the post to let me know you liked something I wrote.

You can email posts, print them, and share them on Facebook and Twitter (where they already appear if you have friended me or follow me), as well as Digg, Reddit, and Stumbleupon.
Comments on Facebook about post links appearing on Facebook are welcome too, but those who don’t read my posts on Facebook (the majority of readers, from what I can tell) won’t see your comments. I prefer that you comment on the actual blog post, but whatever works for you — just comment! I appreciate it!

All of this commenting, liking, sharing, subscribing, friending, and following expands my network of readers, so that one day I can take over the world, bwah ha ha!
No, seriously, it lets me know that I’m not alone here, that something I’ve written has connected with another human being. I love knowing that I’ve connected in a positive way. It’s meaningful and gratifying. So please comment, dammit, comment!










Hello
5am…
A moment that can happen at any time.
when everything falls into place,
clarity is at it’s clearest,
confusion transforms into oneness
and when fate…
Welcomes you with open arms.
Jason, I like! I like! I like!
I have just had this flu! The ankle thing was constant and annoying but I hadn’t thought why It was happening. I will try the thymus thumps as I’m not back to full strength yet and have soooh much to do, hoping your move and recovery go well

I’ve accidentally found your site and I LOVE it. It speaks my language and experiences/thoughts and has much stuff around my own experiences cobbling together how I think the body (myself) works in relationship to trauma. YAY that this arena is progressing like it is and that people are talking/sharing about it. 10 years ago all there was was waking the tiger (whcih is still great, but not enough) Look forward to reading your blogs. Rachel, New Zealand.
Rachel, thanks so much for leaving that inspiring comment! Come back any time, comment on anything you like, and I’d love to hear your trauma recovery story (whether for publication or not).
I agree, there’s much more awareness of the toll trauma takes and more knowledge and assistance available for recovery than there ever has been before. The more we talk and write about it, the faster that happens!
I like your post.
Keep it up.
Great blog. I really enjoyed reading your posts!
Your blog is really fantastic… chock full of coolness and about random stuff. I really love that! Some blogs focus on one unilateral concept, but yours boasts a little taste of everything. I enjoy your yogic mind and love how you cultivate goodness.
This brings me to the reason I found your blog. You actually subscribed to one of mine, called Master Mud Mama! I ended up orphaning that blog abandoning it for a newer one that you are welcome to check out, albeit still new, at http://www.harvesthappiness.weebly.com. What’s totally ironic about finding you, even if you did find me first, is that we have similar interests including yoga, spirituality, and more importantly, the emphasis on having fun! Life is a playground!
I am totally excited about finding your blog, or you finding mine or the universe helping each of us find the other… you know what i mean. The more cultivating of good thoughts the better!
On a separate note, there is another blog I think you would be interested in by Amy Krause Rosenthal. Visit http://www.whoisamy.com. Check out her “beckoning of the lovely” link. Super fantastic!!!!
Namaste’

Enjoying your blog a lot! Lots of info that I’m using every day! Thanks!
This information is wonderful. I recently have just started meditating and it has changed me into a completely different person, for the better. By meditating I have found my inner peace.
It’s great to be able to write about what you enjoy and in my experience ther is nothing more important than the health of the mind and body .Great writing.
Thanks, Stuart!
