Our Presence in Connection – and Longevity
What Colby Itkowitz at The Washington Post writes about this TED.com talk – and the talk itself – is right in line with all that has occurred in this last week in Iceland. This was sent to me by my long time friend, Kari Uman. We have sat in a circle of women together for 23 years.
VANCOUVER — Want to live longer, enjoy life more and actually find that elusive happiness?
Among the dozens of big ideas shared this week at the international TED conference — from a robot that could...

Presence in Iceland
Map of Iceland – coming alive!
This beautiful artwork on the wall of the inn where I am staying conveys the magic I feel in this incredible country. You can see the presence!

Northern Lights Inn – Presence Tour Continues
The magic of my trip has extended into the actual hotel we are all staying in. On the wall in my room I found this written intention. I felt myself, my presence, my ease expand naturally as I read this. 
Thinking of how we live our lives and the intention we set for ourselves and those around us, I am taking this home with me… and, enjoy!

The World Wide Presence Tour is in Iceland!
Day 2 of my arrival in Iceland and the World Wide Presence Tour continues – we spent the morning in warm camaraderie with my fellow CST instructors – it is SO rarely that we all get to gather in one place. I LOVE this community…it is my original tribe and I love being here. So we met in meetings all morning and then spent the afternoon treating each other in the magical Blue Lagoon. During our time there in the exquisite mineral waters the snow began to fall in earnest and I ended up being fl...

CS Immune System Class in Sydney
The World Wide Presence Tour – Down Under Chapter – is coming to a close today and I have deep gratitude to everyone who was a part of it. The most recent participants were a fabulous group of CranioSacral students here is Sydney. We had such a wonderful time together. I am leaving feeling full of energy and deeply touched by the depth of work that went on in this class. Thank you Shane for making this all happen, and Gary and Fran Dotson for your unflagging presence and support with this gro...

Presence and Mardi Gras
The World Wide Presence Tour continues even as Mardi Gras arrives in Sydney – honestly I had no idea we were going to be here at Mardi Gras!
Here I am professing my innocence with the riot control police of Sydney – as you can see they are a fierce and scary bunch of guys…they were probably needed later in the evening as the Mardi Gras parade progressed around the city and I went home to bed! We are standing outside of one of our favorite restaurants, The Concrete Duck on Campbell Street.

Presence Qualities – The Tour Continues
After writing my last blog I realized that we had shifted gears here in Sydney and we were in the phase of our World Wide Presence Tour where we were doing what I love – practicing and sharing CranioSacral therapy.
Two days ago we did four CST multiple hands on sessions in a row and left the table energized. The time flew by and yet at certain moments during each session it felt as though time expanded or stood still enabling us to complete exactly what we needed to do for each person. Every...
