From Overwhelm to Surrender

Navigating Modern Pressures

Yesterday in a moment of overwhelm, Life said,

Fall into me. I am holding it all
You only need to hold your own life
Oh, and —
I am holding you there, too

It told me, for the 2,000th time,

You hold so much. You feel
weighed down by it
Don’t let your joy be swallowed
by the bottomless seas of
your creative passion
Put your precious feet on the ground!
You don’t need to
live all the answers
Just be here now, in your
one and only day

It gave me time
with children, watching
their honest eyes
their need to be seen
and celebrated as they clung
to a tree branch or leapt
off the sofa onto a pile
of pillows.

It let me sit with them, reading
and laughing and
feeling them breathe, and
as their skin touched mine
I was reminded,

Heaven is already here.

After a wondrous launch, I am happy to have landed a venue for our next dance-a-luma! a monthly gathering that celebrates the divine Light of the feminine.

Dance is not only one of the greatest joys in the human experience, and something everyone can do — it is the top anti-depressant, far more effective than all other forms of exercise and SSRIs.

With dance-a-luma, I invite women to join me in a safe and substance-free environment. Get your tickets here.
