Are there benefits to being 'pulled out' of Time?

I recently flew from eastern USA back to Edinburgh, and am dealing with the inevitable jet lag that accompanies the long trip.

An in perfect keeping with the message of this blog, as I attempted to type out 'jet lag', my fingers chose 'Jen lag', and the phrasing could not be more correct!

As I type this out, my body is unclear about the date, day, or time. I'm not sure if I'm hungry, hangry, sleepy, asleep, or somewhere in the middle of all of this. I suspect that some strange middle point of everything, all sensations, all awarenesses, is where I really 'am'.

I often think of crossing time zones as traveling both through time, and somehow over it. The elevation of the plane takes us out of the normal schedule of the day, and sets us back down in two - my body still feels 5 hours behind, my mind struggling, exhausted, trying to move 5 hours ahead.

This liminal or double space feels uncomfortable, and part of me wants to race ahead a few days, to when my own inner clock will have...

Are you following the beat or feeling lost in the world?

Today, I wanted to simply connect with you about finding the beat, and what it means to be in flow, and then 'stick the landing'.

In reality, we are meant to colour outside of the lines, to add beauty to the mundane. While also remembering to stick the landing, to hit the 'one' beat.

Think of it like jazz, modern dance, gymnastics, ecstatic movement, where you feel unencumbered, but know that there is an...

Embodied Living: Are you in Flow, or battling the world around you?

Hello beautiful beings!  I just wanted to send a bit of information today about the power of initiation and embodied living.  October promises to be the most transformational month of 2020, which we can either fight against, or learn to harness the power for our benefit.

The initiation process can be a bumpy ride, to say the least.  We can often feel tossed into the abyss, without light or guidance to navigate the change. But there are things that we can do to bring form into the formless, to give some foundation and direction.  Here are a few of the best I've found:

1. Set your non-negotiable priorities and follow them! This involves you deciding what really has value in your life (including possessions, experiences, relationships, quality of life, etc), and saying No to what doesn't align, and a big Hell Yes to what does!  If you do not choose what you want, you'll get to experience anything and everything that the universe has on...
