Spent some time this morning volunteering at Santa Fe Community Farm! Weeded some carrot beds, and also talked about helping a bit with their community relations efforts. The farm donates the majority of what it grows to people in need, and is also just starting up its Farm Stand this Sunday. You can purchase organic [...]
And now I've been visited by a black cat in Santa Fe - such a beautiful sign! Cat is strong medicine for me, and in so many of the places I've traveled to, I get visited by a black cat. I work with cat energy a lot in my Reiki practice, and have a strong [...]
I'm in love with making cashew cheese, not least of which is because it's super easy! (See below for recipe.) It's spreadable, you can add in all kinds of different ingredients to the base for additional flavors (like sundried tomato, basil, avocado, etc) and it adds extra protein and healthy fat to a meal, as [...]
These are the only red cactus blossoms I've yet seen on my trail runs - the color still puts me in awe. And also immediately made me think of all that's been happening with Mars astrologically (as the red planet with all it's fiery energy ) - both it's retrograde period (ending June 29) and [...]
First family visit to Santa Fe! I'm so grateful my sis and my nephew came to visit me - and took a pic under my sign! And I'm hoping you all are enjoying this first day of June as we head toward the Summer Solstice on the 20th. Wishing you all lots of lightness and [...]
My nephew and sister came to visit me in Santa Fe for my birthday weekend! My nephew has loved my drum since I brought it home with me from Taos Pueblo last year. He was saying "drum" the whole way to my office and it was the sweetest reunion. He also took all my animal [...]

Anyone that knows me, knows I seriously love all of God's creatures...except for spiders. There's nothing that makes me want to jump up on a chair and scream...except for spiders. But yesterday, on the eve of my 37th birthday, I held a tarantula. And I have to say, she was surprisingly soft and sweet. So [...]
These sweet, sunny roses run along my fence line, and how perfect a reminder of the shining, lightness of summer! It's kinda impossible not to feel bright when you're looking at a yellow rose...I mean, "stopping to smell the roses" became a cliche for a reason! Mama earth is blooming in our part of the [...]
PUBLISHED ON MINDBODYGREEN As a Reiki Master/teacher, one of the most common reasons people contact me is after a break up. It’s one of the most painful experiences we go through in life, and a Reiki treatment – whether in-person or via distance – provides a calming and soothing form of energy therapy to help [...]
