Why weeding is a great meditation!

Why weeding is a great meditation!

If you have a garden, I know you spend time weeding. Many consider it an inconvenience. But true gardeners can get in ���the zone��� while doing it ��� and that is actually mindfulness, or meditation.



When I purchased my first house over 20 years ago, I was pretty darn excited.�� About everything, even weeding.



I do know that, in the bigger picture of things, weeds are simply plants that we don���t know the use for. . . yet.



But sometimes they grow where we don���t want them.�� And what���s to be done, but ��� weeding!

Why we should celebrate the Autumn Equinox

Why we should celebrate the Autumn Equinox

This year, autumn officially begins on September 23, 2016, at 2:50 a.m. EST.



Our ancestors celebrated all equinoxes and solstices, but the autumn equinox seems to have been a little less celebrated than the others. I���m not sure what the historical reason is, but for myself, I���m sad to see summer coming to an end and am not quite ready to say goodbye to summer and welcome in the fall.



But it happens. It���s part of the cycle of life, and to be in tune with the natural world, it���s important to honor these special natural events.

The Need for Patience in Healing

patience in healing

The June 2019 issue of England's Spiritus Magazine published an article I wrote about the need for patience in healing.   And in a previous podcast, I conducted an interview with Spiritual Healing practitioner David Karg which explains more on what Spiritual Healing, also known as energy healing, is. I hope you enjoy this cast history of remarkable results.

Do You Live In Linear Time or Natural Time? Why It Matters

Do You Live In Linear Time or Natural Time? Why It Matters

Do you live in linear time, or natural time? Do you know the difference? Which is better for your physical and spiritual health? Today's blog/podcast tells us the answer.



Traditional indigenous people the world over speak the language of spirit – what I mean by that is they knew how to have a two-way communication with the natural world around them, because they live in natural time.
