Making Dreams Happen

I had the great privilege of spending the weekend up in the mountains with the stone people. It was remarkable to feel how alive and communicative they were. The rock featured in the photographs was the being I connected with most, different sides of the same being. Do you see its face looking out over the landscape? A guardian being for the land there, and when we reached the saddle we found another one in the next valley over.

Getting up to Gwillam Lakes has been a dream for years, but something I never was able to find the time for. Even before the trip I could feel that familiar voice of overwhelm rumbling in my bones, trying to dissuade me from doing what I love, from pursuing this dream. I am grateful I could bring kindness and care to this one without needing to let it be the loudest voice in the room. It was so beautiful to witness my little one dancing and playing, jumping from rock to rock all the way up the mountain, the same little one who almost thought we should stay home because the trip felt like too much! When I can honour the part of me that feels overwhelmed, but still bring him along for the ride, we get to have a lot of fun together and remember just how good life can be.

If you have dreams you want to make happen, but not sure how to get there, reach out. I would love to hear how I can support you in creating a life you love.

Let yourself down.

Just like you've done

A thousand times before.

Let yourself down,

Until there's nowhere left to go

But the floor.

Be still with yourself

Still present,

Still awake,

Staying alive to the immediacy of your experience.

Nowhere to go,

Nowhere to be,

But here, right now.

Here, in this place.

At this time.

Feel the unique quality

Of what makes this moment this moment.

The breezes, the smells,

The light, the temperature, the company.

The season, the year,

The position of earth in relation to sun, moon, and stars.

Feel your aliveness in every possible sensation you can experience

Knowing that this is your wholeness

Unlike any other's

Yours and your alone.

That which you have created and are creating,

What you have become and what you are becoming.

All present,

Here with you,

Now!
