Creating Space

Solitude is really important to me. Silence. Stillness. Living in NYC can be such a challenge. I think our modern lives can really take us away from what is truly important = Being.

Take some time out of your day to just be.

I know the whole "there's so much to do" story we all hear and speak.

Without presence, being present, we miss our life.

Without emptiness we can not know our fullness.

Life breathes better with crystalline clarity.

Juicing Is The Key

Everyone needs to live juicy! Fresh living foods make you a fresh living vibrant human! I eat mostly Organic, Raw, Vegan foods. I have found fresh veggie juice to be the key to life. Here's todays recipe, and one I really live for (and on!!!)

Green Limonada
2-3 green apples
4-6 stalks of celery
Bunch of parsley
1-2 lemons, skinned
1 inch ginger
handful of kale or spinach, or both!!!!

Drink this everyday and you will radiate joy, vitality, and your skin will be perfect!
(I usually have 2-4 glasses a day)

New Ways Of Living

Lately I have been thinking about new ways of living. Considering ways to have a greater impact on the world as a creative spirit and a conscious human being. Contemplating how we all affect one another. Dreaming up ways to live with more magic, joy, and diversity. Meditating on how our simple presence has a powerful affect on each other. Our vibe, our thoughts, our speech, our actions - all create a landscape of our human presence.

So many people seem to me to feel like they are powerless, and are living without intention. Lately this thought has made me feel really sad. Life without love seems like death to me. I have experienced this death and I want to live more vibrantly. I want to live more simply. I want my life to be a beautiful tapestry, a fragrant fruitful garden, an inspirational song.

It seems to me that we need to return to conscious communal living. Anxiety, loneliness, depression, scarcity - so many issues would be resolved by returning to life amongst a loving tribe. Family can be the one we create.

I recently returned from Burning Man (www.burningman.com) - it was my 4th burn! I met some amazing people there who have created Eco Villages - and was really inspired by this concept. I had the idea about it, and then was presented with a community of wonderful people who are actively focused on cultivating new worlds within this world! Check out www.gaiauniversity.org

Many people are also going mobile. Taking their life on the road. Finding green ways to do it. Life is filled with unknown possibilites, and roads that can be created once imagined.
