Caroline Myss: Defy Gravity Book Review

I just finished another amazing book by Caroline Myss.


Her first book

  Anatomy of The Spirit really was so helpful to me on my journey. I give it to friends to read who are in need of healing and clarity.

To understand the gist of  her newest work, Defy Gravity: Healing Beyond The Bounds of  Reason, 
first please watch this short clip of Caroline Myss talking about the concept of reason:


Oh man, have I ever been a Champion Reasoner!!!!!!!  I used to listen to the news, hear of some tragic thing and think "now how did that  happen and how can I make sure it never happens to me or anyone I love?" Talk about crazy making!  Caroline delves into the mystery of life, the ethereal almost otherworldly spiritual side that is so easily dismissed in our "logical society." It's as if we live in Spock's planet, dismissing anything illogical..
If you are interested in leaving some of your logical reasoning behavior behind and embracing the spiritual side of your life, this book will help you tremendously.  I found it easy to follow and some of the stories are just pure miracles, no way to explain them, just have to trust that they happened.

Read all of Caroline Myss's work. I think you will find it much easier to live amongst mere mortals such as I.
Live Long and Prosper,

Every Moment is A Thing of Beauty

Maybe it's just parenthood, maybe it's being told you have a finite time to live (but not a TRUE expiration date, just the threat of one), maybe it's having a kid later in life.. no matter.. but I try to find the beauty in each moment of my life.
 Creating things, events, space for adventure, all those things are priorities to me. 
Call me crazy, but the best times are the ones where we just are together with family or friends, doing something silly, laughing and enjoying the moment. 


The beautiful moments.. they pass so quickly it is easy to lose sight of what is really valuable.


Here is a glimpse into the glorious yet so simple pleasures that make my heart sing and life worth living, a picture essay of the weekend.


Friday Night: Bollywood!


Belle Sam's bestest pal came over after school and joined the Indian feast/movie night with our family. On the menu? Samosas with cilantro chutney, garlic nann, green beans toran, mushrooms, raita, chia tea and of course, a green salad for me.


Here is a music video from the movie we watched.. totally fun and goofy.. and three hours LONG!



Malcolm was not impressed by
the Blue Aliens in the movie.. 
Belle and Sam loved dressing
up and gathered flower petals 
for the table..
