Becoming Spring
For Yule I got a rice maker. Awesome as it is, the best thing about it is that because I registered it with Zojirushi, they send seasonal emails to remind me to clean it, and they include the instructions on how to do so. That really simple support, so efficient and thoughtful, reminded me of the things I do seasonally to tend my life force, soul, space-place, and ecosystem. In the spirit of a...

The Body Awake
Last week was the 22nd anniversary of my awareness of the politics of form, and that anniversary hasn’t been without ripples. It was the anniversary of my initiation into chronic pain, autoimmune disarray, and what would become a 15-year obstacle course diagnosis of a rare genetic condition.

The Risk of Apathy
The first time I heard the word ‘apathy’ repeatedly in the press was when I was a kid, and it was to describe post-Vietnam War unemployment. Specifically, it described those who were unemployed.

A decade later, ‘apathy’ sold headlines describing Gen...
