A Winter Solstice: Angels Among Us

Late last December, still ensconced in a small 1950’s, down-at-heel rented cottage in Carmel By The Sea, on a bright winter’s day I sat to write wha...

  • Latest addiction: Duck Fat Chocolate Chip Cookies. These delicious goodies are grain-free/gluten-free, and sugar-free too (read, ‘ketogenic’), making them guilt-free as well. Voilà! 🍪🙏🏻💫
....
....
The duck fat lends an indescribably rich taste, different than butter, that works marvelously with the chocolate chips (stevia-sweetened). ⚡️🦆🍫
....
....
Being the ‘holidaze’ it’s helpful (essential?) to have some sweet indulgences that actually nourish the body, rather than take us out of balance or into unhealthy biochemistry. 🤗🎄❄️☃️
....
....
Here’s wishing you deep soulful nourishment in what tends to be a season of excess (and too much sugar). And may you find a sense of cheer amid the busy-ness, bustle, and crass materialism. Faites simple, as the French say: keep it simple. 😎🙏🏻💫🎁

  • December arrives. Time for a pause in the mid afternoon, a deep breath, considering the pale, frozen sky beyond the windows and a foot of snow on the ground.🌀❄️☃️

A favourite Asian porcelain cup, without a handle, a lift-out infuser and lid (both set aside), for the fragrant jasmine green tea I generally prefer as a day rolls by. Often a thick coin of ginger root added to steep with the leaves, yielding a bit of pungent, healing warmth. 🔥🍵
....
....
Here’s wishing you a gentle pause to reflect, tuning in to the energy within, guided then by what wishes to emerge and take form. Create beauty. Always. 💫🌸

Shine on, friend, like the stars we are. 🌟✨

Blessed be. Merry and bright. ❄️🎄

“Samhain. All Hallows’ Eve. Celebrated for ages as a window to connect with ancestors and spirits, magic, healing and transformation, the veil between worlds is but gossamer thin—easily parted and crossed.
....
....
For hours during this auspicious night, I am unexpectedly performing a sort of arcane yoga: curling into and unwinding from unfamiliar, contorted postures that carry me all across the bed, following a misty, serpentine energy through my body. Some of these positions defy gravity: hips and legs lifted up, suspended in air, while my torso and arms simultaneously wrap into spirals and tightly contract as my head cranes back. Breathing into each pose, bound as surely as by ropes, my musculature and nervous system begins to unwind and relax, only to lead me into a subsequent full-body contortion and unraveling. Each is like a convoluted yoga asana, an unknown energy pattern and shape, that I will later be unable to re-create. All that I know is that my body is healing itself spontaneously of old limitations I hadn’t previously been aware of. Guided by energy, I am working underneath the layer of stories, symptoms, trauma, and all outward manifestation.
....
....
Unexpected, this. Yet every breath feels strangely sacred. ....
....
At one point, I experience a seeming impossibility: my vision is able to travel a complete rotation in either direction and “see” behind me, a phenomenon reported by accomplished yogis, linking up some hitherto dormant or inactive circuitry related to sight.
....
....
Unclear exactly how long I’ve been in this astonishing process of unwinding, I drift into a vast, curiously fuzzy whiteness where everything is so silent and still, my mind utterly blank, I think perhaps I have died… except that I can feel my heart beating, and my right hand taps rhythmically upon the coverlet with an energetic cadence. This, as I allow it to continue and intensify, guides me gradually into yet another round of further contorted postures, a past life experience or two...”

  • Keto? Vegan? Raw? YES. Amazing hemp “overnight oats” for a delicious and sustaining breakfast porridge. 🥣
....
....
Hemp hearts are loaded with short-chain omega-3 essential fatty acids, powerful for lowering inflammation and rebuilding the brain. And the coconut milk is another great source  of brain & heart-healthy fat. So simple to make, and full of bioactive energy for restoring body and biofield!
....
....
Ingredients:
1/2 cup (75g) hulled hemp seeds (‘hemp hearts’)
2/3 cup (260ml) full-fat coconut milk
1 tablespoon chia seed
2 teaspoon powdered erythritol
Pinch of sea salt 
Dash of cinnamon
Optional: berries or nuts for garnish

Method:
Combine ingredients in a 12 fl. oz. (350ml) or larger container with a lid. Cover and set in the fridge overnight, for at least 8 hours. 🕗
....
.... To serve, fluff with a fork and add additional coconut or non-dairy milk alternative until desired consistency is reached. (Gently warm the additional milk to lessen the chill of the porridge, whilst still keeping it raw.) 🌿
....
....
Serves one generously, or two small portions. Add toppings if desired, and enjoy. 🙏🏻💫🍴

“Ancestor Medicine, Part 2” follows on the previous episode’s theme, with L.R. Heartsong sharing further thoughts on the true inheritance we receive from our lineage(s). Using his metaphor of ‘bodysoul’ as a grand old house, he offers that we have to go beyond cleaning, claiming, renovating and rebuilding; the real work is to replace the wiring itself and turn the lights on—by creating all new circuitry in our biofield.⚡️👣🌈

What are we still holding onto, long past any usefulness? Energy patterns? Old hurts and wounds? Anger? Burden? Resentment? Attachment? 👣🍂🌀

As the veil between worlds draws thinnest tomorrow night, here’s wishing you all manner of releasing the stories of the past and whatever no longer serves your highest good unfolding. 🎃🙏🏻💫

Your real destiny is to write a NEW story for your life. 🌈
