Thoughts from Medicine Bow
Life becomes as simple as revolving around the sun and the clouds, out here. Being in tune with the sky puts you in tune with the wild, and frees me from the weather system of my own mind - the inner chatter and anxieties that come from being in tune with the self and ego, and the societal noise of needing to have and be more, more, more. Perhaps if we were all... -
Battle of Medicine Bow
Last night was grim. Many mice lost their lives at the Battle of Medicine Bow National Forest. May they Rest In Peace.
There’s nothing in this world that I fear... -
Thoughts from Boulder
...that is enough to satiate our craving to forage. It is more than enough. And it doesn’t cost a thing. In fact, all it does is give...it doesn’t create waste only joy and peace.

Return to the Wild
The natural world is always moving. The air, the sky, the little leaves of grass, the tiny hairs on every creatures’ skin. Always shifting. Up and down. Back and forth. Every which way. All at the same time. Sun is shining, clouds roll in, storms darken, rain cleanses, and the sun comes out again, and out pop the little flowers. It is the circle of being alive and connected. What is being alive other than... -

The Storm of 2020
Hello to all ye warriors of 2020. It’s been a storm of a year, has it not? I hope everybody is finding ways to cope and maybe finding out some new things about yourselves and areas in which to grow. I know that I sure have, and not in a boastful way. I have seen some ugly sides of myself as well as some core parts of myself that I don’t usually get to see. I’ve also tapped into some deeper truths that I have either forgotten, avoided, or covered up. It’s as if this year has... -
Black Lives Matter
Everything you’re seeing, hearing, feeling in America right now...this is what change LOOKS like. This is what change FEELS like.
It wasn’t very long ago when a woman would look another woman in the eye and tell her it’s not her place to vote. But after protest after protest, families being broken apart, and courageous leaders fueled by pain and determination, women can now vote. And now all young girls growing up can’t imagine it being any other way. Don’t think that that same thing isn’t happening right now. Change is uncomfortable. What role will you play in it? Because THIS is IT. This is the wave we need in order to end racism NOW, so the next generation...

It's the Small Things
When I was around ten, my family went on a trip to England. My mom and I went to some town square in London and these young bohemian ladies were giving tourists hair wraps for about 20 pounds a piece... -
Wild Hearts and Free Spirits
Being human has its own process of transformation - heartbreak, loss, pain, sickness, stagnancy, stress, falls, disappointments - all necessary for growth, for life. If you want to flow, crash. If you want to feel calm, first feel the storm... -
Connection is Everything
When I first started on the road, I found myself wandering aimlessly, passing quickly through towns and checking it off the list of places I've been. I finally felt like I was spinning wheels and not feeling fulfilled and made a stop in Montana. After a few weeks of complete isolation in the wilderness of Montana... -

Finding a Focus and Staying Motivated
When I balance on one foot in yoga and focus on the word "love", I'm less distracted and my balance is strong - I hardly even think about being on one foot. When I focus on staying balanced or not falling, I wobble and fall out. Which is like life...
