Re-enchantment and Gratitude Day – Darkness
I am writing this pre-dawn in the stretched pregnant hour before the dance of the day, while stars are still singing soliloquies in the belly of night. I’m drinking the landscape with a warm cup of earthy fir tip/lichen/turkey tail tea, and before I light… Continue Reading “Re-enchantment and Gratitude Day – Darkness”
HIBERNACULUM AND AN APPRENTICESHIP TO SLOW AND STILL
It seems that much of the OverCulture is a conspiracy against slowing down and resting. It sometimes is difficult to sever ourselves from the busyness and distractions epidemic, even in Winter. All the messages seem to say: MORE! What if we shaped out a… Continue Reading “HIBERNACULUM AND AN APPRENTICESHIP TO SLOW AND STILL”
Re-Enchantment & Gratitude Day – Darkness
Dear Wild Nature Hearts, Saturday is this month’s Re-Enchantment & Gratitude Day, when we honor DARKNESS. I love that it roughly coincides with December’s dark moon (black moon, December 30).🌚 Like so many other aspects of modern life, the OverCulture also paves over the season of… Continue Reading “Re-Enchantment & Gratitude Day – Darkness”
MORNING DEW: HOLY WATER
These days I rarely start the day without being 61% salt-water by volume. I rarely start heating the water (from the mountain spring) for my forest fresh tip tea without my body being 99% H20 by molecular count. I see these morning dew drops… Continue Reading “MORNING DEW: HOLY WATER”
NEW: THRESHOLD: Earth Intimacies & the Art of Transformation
I’m both tickled like a butterfly and hungry like a caterpillar for Wild Nature Heart’s new course/journey starting next month.
THRESHOLD: Earth Intimacies and the Art of Transformation is a 6-week course journey dedicated to tending both our personal and collective thresholds with intention and heart. With the images of threshold crossing and caterpillar-to-butterfly transformation as guiding metaphors, we will deepen our ecospiritual practices, practice being present with the whole of what is at our doorstep, and proliferate imaginal buds for what is emerging.
DON’T FORGET THE SMALLS
Don’t forget the Smalls in your basket of Whos Don’t forget the smells when you’re looking for clues Don’t forget your nose when you’re searching for hints Don’t forget the sense of all of the scents Don’t forget your ear, to put to the… Continue Reading “DON’T FORGET THE SMALLS”
Global Earth Exchange: Honoring Our Love and Pain For the World
As part of Radical Joy for Hard Times’ Global Earth Exchange, we will gather to Honor Our Love and Pain for the World. This will be equal parts sharing in circle, solo time on land/with the river, a simple grief ritual, and creating ecoart… Continue Reading “Global Earth Exchange: Honoring Our Love and Pain For the World”
What Emerges Amidst the Ashes
Many of you may know Trebbe Johnson & her offering in the world, Radical Joy for Hard Times. I had the pleasure of spending time with her at the Global Wilderness Guides Council gathering. A group of us created guerrilla beauty & sharing among… Continue Reading “What Emerges Amidst the Ashes”
Healing Work IS Antiracist IS Ecotherapeutic IS Decolonial IS Sacred Grief IS Rewilding
Healing work IS Anti-racist work IS Decolonial work IS Ecotherapeutic work IS Sacred Grief work IS Rewilding work.
These are not and cannot be seperate if we are to dream and enact ourselves into regenerative, cooperative, co-liberatory, earth-honoring habits of being and doing.
10 spring Poppies for Approaching Ecotherapy
When invited to teach an upcoming Ecotherapy course, I realized that something beyond more knowledge or even skills, as commonly understood, is required. Something in me balked at overly-academicizing it, and felt that all-too-familiar intellect taking over, alienating my body, heart, and soul. So these are some spring wild poppies and prickly cacti that emerged through the soil:
