Dear Deep Soul, Welcome to March and the beginning of spring. Despite the promise of Spring, there seem to be so many things that are in opposition to what supports a healthy and stress-free body, community, and world. Yet, this is what is—so how can we deal with it in a graceful, authentic manner that…
Greetings Dear Self-Lovers! 2022 is a year that will surely test you again and again. Sound familiar? Though it truly will be new terrain, what may be familiar are the questions that need to beasked if you wish to fill your cup and have it spill over with good things for you and everyone.What fills…
Dear Deep Soul, What are some of the gems you can identify from living your best life this past year? And what are some nuggets you hope to discover and polish into gems for 2022? For me it seems that 2021 has been a time for reconnection…at least more than in 2020!I noticed that I…
