"You don't need a dog. It just doesn't make sense to get a dog right now." This is a serious conversation from the dinner table at my house this weekend "If you get a dog, I am not going to take care of it for you. You have to walk it. You have to feed… Continue reading Keep Your Heart Open

The Mouse, the Moon and the Jumping Mother
Spirit knows how to move me. Spirit knows how to get me out of my chair. Yes, it was a mouse. And I am not honoring mouse just yet. Notice I didn't even capitalize 'mouse?' I had just experienced a wonderful meditation with several Tibetan monks. I was spiritually high and felt… Continue reading The Mouse, the Moon and the Jumping Mother
The Pacing Lion
I found myself pacing tonight. I was working out in my exercise room, and I couldn't decide, the elliptical or the mini-tramp. Pretty soon I was just pacing back and forth on the cement floor. I wondered why it felt good. Just pacing. I was listening to my usual road trip music. There is this… Continue reading The Pacing Lion
Staying Open to Happiness
I went for a morning walk and was processing my fears, my worries and praying to come back to my center. It was apparent to me I was a bit off, as my emotions were in fear mode and so when something landed on my left arm, I panicked. Distracted and anxious my mind and… Continue reading Staying Open to Happiness
Healing the Waters Within
From Puget Sound to the Gulf of Mexico, I was called. The Dolphins called me - they actually were on the phone with me late last spring, just shortly after the Gulf crisis began. I was on the phone with a friend of mine last May, about to bring up the fact that the dolphins… Continue reading Healing the Waters Within

My tour ended a few days ago, or so I thought. I was ready to get settled again, I was wanting… Continue reading Going Home
Galveston, Oh, Galveston
I kept hearing Glen Campbell singing in my mind. I had been driving most of the night, with the full moon shining down upon me. I pulled over to sleep a few hours near the border of New Mexico and Texas. The beautiful energy that was traveling with me in my car was speaking to… Continue reading Galveston, Oh, Galveston
The Light at the Doorbell
It was 1:30 in the morning when the doorbell rang... I sat up and wondered if it was real or in my dreams. Was there someone at the door? A voice spoke to me and tried to reassure me. Staying at someone else's house, by myself, with the coyotes howling in the desert outside Santa… Continue reading The Light at the Doorbell
Sorry, Ma’am, No Cable
I find television very educating. Every time somebody turns on the set, I go into the other room and read a book. - Groucho Marx "There is no cable service in that area, ma'am. Sorry." Oh my gosh. For the first time in my life I feel desperate for cable. My homeschooled/unschooled daughters and I… Continue reading Sorry, Ma’am, No Cable
Earth Medicine
I was back on the road this past summer. After a three year hiatus from touring, I was back at it. It was wonderful to be in my car, radio blasting, running down the highway. It is exhilarating to meet new people and to make a difference in their lives. How wonderful to feel an… Continue reading Earth Medicine
