“Panpsychism is the idea that everything, every particle, the ink on the page, the atoms, all have some infinitesimal degree of psyche or consciousness, and somehow this consciousness is combined in some way from our cells and the rest of our bodies to create this kind of superconsciousness.” Michael Pollan I think about this kind of thing a lot, and if you feel this to be true, then you are just a sack of particles floating in a universe of similar particles. Quite a humbling thought, and it really takes our egos down a few notches. Also, it stands to reason that everything you embody will be magnified tenfold into the world, so choose wisely. Use your energy thoughtfully, it could be said. Acupuncture had this theory locked in about 5,000 years ago, also very humbling. The modality addresses one of the original structures of energetic medicine, along with many…

For every Evil under the sun, there is a remedy, or there is none. If there be one, seek till you find it; If there be none, never mind it. Mother Goose A moment in time, to show up or to disappear. I believe that if we all elevated our consciousness and stood firm in nurturing a healthier culture, change would follow. It will happen; it is just a matter of when.

You can be part of this kind of movement; it is a matter of what you choose to focus on and where you put your Shen.…

I found our beloved cat, Penny, dead on the floor of the basement. It looked like she died of a heart attack. She was a magical cat of the highest order, she came us to at a time in our family, when she and her sister were desperately needed. She took her job of caring for my eldest child seriously, she would lay on her bed protecting her. She would lick her face and sit on her chest and purr.
