The Writer’s Road

February 8, 2010

This last week or so there’s been plenty of ‘crazy’ going on with me, and I just haven’t been able to write. Not find the time, nor find the words. But when ten days have passed and I haven’t produced anything to publish, a new kind of crazy takes over in me.

Inspiration.  It’s mysterious, it’s evanescent, it’s transcendent.  When we’ve got it, we feel great.  Life is good and days are too short.  But what happens when the inspiration thins, disappears or just seems to have flat out packed up and gone?

Mastery, or Fear of Failure

January 14, 2010

Have we lost interest in the Art of Mastery?  It seems a rather outmoded concept these days.  Everything is designed to happen on fast-forward.  So you can complete your course of study, in just about anything you like, through an intensive online course.  Your certificate will be in the post at the end of the month.  But does that mean you’re any good?

It’s been nearly a month since my last post.  The closing of the year gave me a lot to think about.  A lot to sift and sort in my mind.  Sometimes we just get into autopilot, flying ahead at breakneck pace, afraid to stop. For a long time, I’ve been chanting the mantra of slowing down.  Be in the moment.  Smell the flowers.  Walk don’t run.

Soul Cleanse: Water Week

December 7, 2009

It’s really not difficult to connect with the spirit of Water energy around here at the moment. It’s still raining. It might have been raining for 2 weeks, or 3 now, or even longer.  I forget.  It’s all merging into one long watery dream. Funny thing is, I don’t really seem to mind it this year.

Earth Week: Connecting With Your Home Space

December 3, 2009

Sometimes I realize I’ve been coming and going so fast for so long, that my poor old home must feel like Clapham Junction. Merely a waystation between breakfast and the day ahead, and deprived of the presence of its loving inhabitants, to fill it with the human warmth that it deserves.

Soul Cleanse: Earth Week, Part 2

December 2, 2009

As Earth week continues, I’m looking for ways to connect more deeply with my physical self and the physical environment around me.  So part 2 today is about getting into nature and getting some essential soul replenishment from Gaia’s own sweet reserves by taking an Earth Medicine Walk.

Soul Cleanse: Earth Week

November 30, 2009

Earth element rules all things physical, from our bodies, to the natural world around us, and the man-made constructions of our homes.  It is the realm of matter, the densest level of energies, that we can clearly see and touch.
The goal of this week is to spend some time connecting with your body-intuition, listening to [...]

Soul Cleanse & Balance

November 30, 2009

On Friday I wrote about the importance of finding some spaces in the busy momentum of the holiday period to carve out a little time for replenishing your well.  It’s that creative solitude, or healing time alone, that Julia Cameron talks about as being so necessary to the artist soul.

Friday Coffee & Cakes #2

November 28, 2009

In which I reflect on a week without posting.  Which I really might do more often from now on.

It’s just all a bit too much sometimes
I’m still wrestling with divergent opinions about how often one should post on one’s blog.  If you don’t have anything worth hearing, then don’t say anything at all, right?  Last [...]
