about

You and I are living through huge changes. My day to day is a roller coaster ride through grief and fear of loss, to joy at the birdsong, gratitude, inspired resolve, and anxiety. I'm energized and exhausted at the same time. Maybe you're riding a roller coaster too.

It's tempting to devote all energy to practicalities and logistics, to the newsfeeds and the search for distractions, or to disconnect and retreat into your private world. But we're needed. You and me. Right now.

So how do we ride the roller coaster? And how do we participate with our gifts and wisdom?

By making space for reflection on the bigger meanings, including our vulnerability. To stop and breathe and approach these realities with gentleness, to bring heart and mind together in awareness.

This can be hard to do in the best of times. Sitting with the old stories helps me. This old Celtic story of competition and tests of character can guide reflections on the source of true strength and the deep meanings of this time.

My hope and intention is to offer you an opening into such a space, with tools for contemplation and soulful company. We're in this together.

Thank you for listening and keep the mystery in your life alive....
