I had only a twenty dollar bill and some change, and we are heading up to Seattle in a few days anyway, so I knew I didn't need much and could restrain myself at the Santa Cruz Wednesday downtown Farmer's Market. This is what I came home...
I am fighting a cold, and wishing I had a few days of nothing to do. I am imagining laying in bed and reading fiction - it's been way too long since I've done that. Today had too much going on, so I struggled through what needed to be...
The Advanced Mind-Body Medicine Training is done, and I am once again feeling grateful for the many places I have in my life where people take the risk to share with each other in a deep way. As the participants of this training return...
