What If You Were A Newborn?
I’m still a bit obsessed with our new kitten — in a very good way. 😉 The other day, during a work break, I held him in my lap, noticing the faint “cat food breath,” which strangely smells like fish even though his food is poultry flavored. Despite that, it didn’t...
How To Make Life Less “Sticky”
In our house, we like to use a particular kind of handmade lemon soap. The other day I was in the shower and I noticed the soap was getting very thin- like, it was time for another bar soon. And when I got out of the shower I actually remembered to put a...
Who’s The Best Tantra Teacher?
often hear this question: “Who’s the best Tantra teacher?” While I consider myself a skilled Tantra teacher, I am not the ultimate teacher. Many colleagues are excellent as well, but the truth is: the Divine is the best Tantra teacher there is. Whether you call it...
Waking Up With Love (Sorry, I Don’t Mean Morning Sex)
Yesterday, I woke up—or rather, was gently woken—at 4:30 AM. It was just light enough to see the outline of my Beloved, with our kitten Moishe perched on his shoulder. Moishe’s tiny head and ears glowed softly in the dawn light, while my Beloved stroked my hair. The...
Meetup Is Not A Dating Site
As you probably know, most of my newsletters are all warm and sunshine-y. This one - not so much. I want to be kind, I always want to be kind. AND, I want to publicly say that in my experience it is not uncommon for someone to "hit on" me on...
What I Learned From My Kitten Today
This morning I was on a call with my business coach. Her doorbell rang, and she excused herself to go answer it, since she was the only one in the house. I happened to have our new kitten Moishe ("Moy-she", means Moses in Hebrew) sleeping on my...
Can Loss Be A Gift?
Last Saturday I was about to give a 3 hour Sacred Lingam Massage workshop, so I went to get my nails and toes done beforehand. While I was waiting for my nails to dry, I got a phone call from a number right in town. I knew there were no workshop participants from...
I’m Not Going To Lie
I'm not going to lie. It's been an interesting week. And I don't mean "bad". A real mixed bag, actually. Last week I had arthroscopic knee surgery. So that's a thing. I'm doing well. And, it's still a thing. At the same time, business is...
Life Lessons From A Jigsaw Puzzle
I just finished a 1,000 piece jigsaw puzzle. Well, 998 pieces to be exact. I'm pretty sure my cat ate two of them. It's a beautiful, spring-like scene of songbirds and flowers in a scenic country setting, for those who are curious. Making jigsaw puzzles is...
Do You Hate Valentine’s Day?
While it may be true that much of the Valentine's Day hype is commercially based, so what? That's the case with most holidays. The question is, are we going to let capitalism dictate our behavior by NOT celebrating perfectly wonderful things, like love? And...
