white hot ’round up: march was magnificent. magic. metal.

Dusty (and happy) from a sojourn to my Southwestern stomping grounds. Allowing the sacred hot-tubbing time to alchemize cynicism into shrewdness. Parceling up the past month’s pieces, for your reveling pleasure:

highlights + spotlights

: why self-improvement makes you neurotic.
You may feel screwed up, neurotic, defective, sub par—take a number. But the idea that you’re “broken”—or need fixin’ up to be better, better, better!—is a seriously flawed paradigm. Stop striving for improvement. ACCESS YOUR POWER INSTEAD…

: open up any way.
Engage every cell in fiercely wishing: to be seen. to be graduated. adored. valued. validated. met. A poem from me, for you. Go on, OPEN IT…

: i’m loving: sacred sex, poetry and meditation style. (yes, in that order.)
From cosmic sexual healing that strikes the heart (without shock value) to sacred words by Mark Nepo (the Rumi of our time) to precious Mala beads (seeped with intention), you really can’t go wrong with focused devotion. SO MUCH TO LOVE…
