A little summer souvenir…

Wednesday, August 7, 2013 by Tracey Selingo

Dear Summer: Thank you for showing up again and shining your radiate light. You always have such a subtle way of reintroducing me to peace and happiness; of reminding me how good a long day can be with just a little extra light; of reconnecting me to the power of earth energy that supports my (sometimes) weary bones. Thank you for your gentle winds and your wild colors, … [Read more...] about A little summer souvenir…

Three Easy Ways To Make The Most Of A Campfire

Wednesday, July 3, 2013 by Tracey Selingo

There's a sacred connection to campfire storytelling and it lies in pulling the veil back so that you share a piece of yourself by the crackling flames.

Fears bubble under the surface, … [Read more...] about Three Easy Ways To Make The Most Of A Campfire

A divine blueprint. The guiding principles of your beautiful life. While that … [Read more...] about The ethics of your shine

Build your nest with intention

Wednesday, May 9, 2012 by Tracey Selingo

It's fascinating to watch a bird make a nest. The way they build it, twig by twig, trash by trash. They use their instincts to find the right materials. Finding, placing, molding, tweaking twig after twig, in a way that will fully support the eggs they plan to lay and coddle until new life hatches. They know no other way. Borrow this process for a minute. Inspect your … [Read more...] about Build your nest with intention

Care/Carry/Cure an essay from ‘You Care Too Much’

In June of 2016 I supported my love Chris as we dealt with the death of both his parents and a co-worker over a three week period. This essay written the summer of those deaths is my attempt to make sense of grief and the struggle to carry all that I care for. Originally published […]
