Reflection Journal – Cultivating Steadiness and Calm

Sacred Circles – Survey

The goal with Sacred Circles is to nurture supportive communities of reflection and practice to help people come alive with a renewed sense of purpose, build trustworthy relationships, and cultivate the courage to rise to today’s challenges, making a difference within themselves and their communities.

To do this well, I would love to get some input from you on how these spaces could best serve you. I’d love to know the times that work best for you, the topics you are interested in, some of the areas where you are finding challenges in your life, so I can offer what is of the highest service.

This survey only takes a couple of minutes to complete and a lovely little gift will be randomly given to one of the participants.

Super excited to have collaborated with my friends and colleagues at Mersey Tobeatic Research Institute a non-profit co-operative with a mandate to promote, conserve and sustain biodiversity in Kespukwitk (southwestern Nova Scotia). We now have a $10,000 from the Joan Feynman Climate Action Grant received through Rural Communities Foundation of NS and will be holding a 3 day event @merseychalets with my mentor Brian Braganza of @tandemtruths.

Love these words from @adriennemareebrown they give me hope. They give me hope as I learn to let go of perfection and trust.
She invites us to let love show up and change the possibilities. Wishing you a beautiful weekend.  Xox #adriennemareebrown #releaseperfection #learnnoticeshare #lovethepractice

All day, I replay these words:
Is this the path of love?
I think of them as I rise, as
I wake my children, as I wash dishes,
as I drive too close behind the slow
blue Subaru, Is this the path of love?

Think of these words as I stand in line
at the grocery store,
think of them as I sit on the couch
with my daughter. 

Amazing how quickly six words become compass,
the new lens through which to see myself
in the world. I notice what the question is not.
Not, “Is this right?” Not,
“Is this wrong?” It just longs to know
how the action of existence
links us to the path of love.

And is it this? Is it this? All day,
I let myself be led by the question.
All day I let myself not be too certain
of the answer. 

Is it this?
Is this the path of love? 
I ask 
as I wait for the next word to come.

The Question - Rosemerry Wahtola Trommer

Possible questions from the wonderful @paulacornell5 
What path have you been walking lately, and how has that been? 

What questions are leading you on your current path? 

Sending you all lots of love 💕 #dailypoetry #lovequotes #pathoflove

Morning light and a poem for your  Friday.. I’m wishing you beautiful, full breaths and moments in which to listen…

“Breath, the mindful breath,
the rhythm, out and in,
the wave that washes
through our days, creating
space for stillness, sorrow,
joy, or exaltation. Full,
then empty, ebb and flow,
breath accompanies each
step into the unknown.
In the breath, the soul 
finds an opportunity to
speak. Images or intuition,
poetry or wordless wisdom
come and go -- no effort but
to breathe and listen.”

- Danna Faulds, Breath​

Slowing down and simplying isnt always my first choice when stressed and tired, but I know I benefit greatly from it. 

Interupting our patterns and habitual ways of doing takes alot of love & patience,

especially for those of us who like to achieve things and have a tendency toward people pleasing... 

I know it is possible to intentionally take time to deepen my daily practises of mindfulness and cold water swimming because they enrich my life and give me that 

rememberance of wholeness...

which I then carry with me all day...

So here is an invitation for you -

Where are you at with your goals & workload?

Where might you benefit from simplifying & deepening something you already love?

My wish is you find a moment of remembering your own wholeness today...🩵🤍💙

Thank you for this quote @corymuscara

I love your ability to be creative and think outside the box.

I DON’T KNOW the word for it, that space between seconds, but I’ve come to understand for myself that it’s the punctuation of my life. Between each word, each thought, each moment is where the truth of things lies. The more intent I am on hearing it, seeing it, feeling it, incorporating it, the more precise the degree to which I’m focused on my life and the act of living. I want to dive into those bits of silence. They contain the ocean of my being and our togetherness.- Richard Wagamese

“I am clearing a space
here, where the trees stand back.
I am making a circle so open
the moon will fall in love
and stroke these grasses with her silver.

I am setting stones in the four directions,
stones that have called my name
from mountaintops and riverbeds, canyons and mesas.
Here I will stand with my hands empty,
mind gaping under the moon.

I know there is another way to live.
When I find it, the angels
will cry out in rapture,
each cell of my body
will be a rose, a star….

I am ready for whatever comes.”

Morgan Farley

Possible reflection prompt-
When you clear a space and stand with your hands empty, what is the story that wants to be told?

We have that choice about how we are going to respond to the world... & it is not always easy. Here are some  affirmations that have been helping me on the journey lately. Drop a heart if any of these resonate with you..

- I can take time to identify what I need, and ask for what I want..
- I am also worthy of abundance & care..
- I trust that everything is unfolding as it should...
- I let go by allowing what is here to be ok
- I can relish those peaceful moments in between..

Sending you all lots of love
xoxo
