Every particle of the world is a mirror. In each atom blazes forth the light of a thousand suns. Open the heart of a raindrop and you will find a hundred oceans. In a grain of sand lies the seed of a thousand beings. ~Mahmud Shabistari I have had a new article publishedon […]

This will be the first and only training of its kind with an intent rooted in our ultimate self-liberation. In other words, this isn’t […]
The Art of Self Care Defined
What is Self Care? In addition to blogging here, I also publish on a health and wellbeing platform. I might have to rethink that! The following article, The Art of Self-Care, was accepted but retitled with a word I would have never used and given an absurd photo of a woman putting on make-up. UG!!! […]
In God We Trust
I’ve been struggling with something for sometime, and it has presented over the years as a schizophrenic rate sheet. I’ve oscillated between free offerings, hourly rates, sliding scales, donation-based offerings, numerous payment platforms, Memberships, private rates, group rates, gift certificates rates, etc., etc. I’ve tried to be everywhere at once…Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Youtube, Patreon, etc. […]
Ray Man Shabad in English
The Ray Man Shabad is a beautiful prayer that made it’s way into my life unexpectedly. I fell upon the following video accidentally on Youtube on the New Year. Upon giving it a shot, I was hooked and decided to do the 40 days. Without understanding why, I was so filled with smiles and joy […]
Insights from Dorje Drolo – A Practice for Our Times
Earlier this year, during one of endless lockdowns, when the world seemed to be full of nothing but fear and confusion, I was guided to embark upon a 40-day Bon practice with the “subverter of demons” known as Dorje Drolo, a wrathful manifestation of Padmasambhava, the fully awakened, precious master and patriarch of Tibetan Buddhism. […]
Yoga Teacher Responsibility: Cultivating Sovereignty
There was a powerful and somewhat heated discussion recently on one of the yoga forums about the responsibility of yoga teachers to their students in terms of politics, cults, media narratives and social issues. What is a yoga teacher’s ethical role when it comes to helping our students make meaning in today’s confusing world and […]
Tibetan Triple Goddess Healing Practice
What is the Triple Goddess? The Triple Goddess is commonly known as a Pagan concept signified by the Maiden, Mother and Crone archetypes. However, here I am speaking of a different tradition, that of the ancient shamanistic tradition of Tibet that predates (but eventually incorporated) Buddhism by tens of thousands of years, the Bon. The […]
Why Divine Metime?
Why Divine Metime? Names are important. They carry energy and set a direction. They solidify intent. I wanted to take a moment to address the name of this website. Let’s define ‘me-time’. First, Me-time is defined by the Online Slang Dictionary as “time to one’s self to relax, recover, think, etc.” While connotations can run […]
Open Source Energy Healing Works!
What is Open Source Energy Healing (OSEH)? From the Open Source Energy Healing perspective, healing is simply caring and witnessing. As conduits for healing, we care deeply about ourselves and others and we make use of our awareness and intention to respectfully apply that care. It is about the “re-membering” of ourselves back to an […]
Do You Qualify for FREE Restorative Healing Yoga Sessions?
Do you qualify for free sessions? Are you facing the threat of unpaid unemployment for your personal choices? Have you recently been fired for wanting to maintain your bodily autonomy? Are you a nurse or other healthcare worker who is now out of a job despite years of stellar, caring service? Have you lost a […]
Consecrated: Beyond Religion
I’ve written about the power in a name on numerous occasions and in my book, The Unknown Mother. On this website, I offer guided meditation mp3’s that utilize that same power to enhance meditative experience. So understand, I don’t take names lightly. I see them as a vibratory force that impacts us on deep energetic […]
Inspired by the Times
I have been feeling so inspired by the times in which we’re living. Okay, yeah, some days, I want to tie lead weights to my ankles and throw myself into the lake. But when those brief moments of “what kind of a fucked-up planet is this!” pass, I actually feel inspired. That doesn’t mean I’m […]
My Memes

Some Basic Yoga Terms If you are new to yoga, you might not be familiar with some of the commonly used words that describe practice. Here are a few important concepts to help make your practice more meaningful: Asana When most people think of yoga, they think of the poses. Asana is the practice of […]
Why I Left the Yoga Alliance
After completing my 200-hour yoga teacher training, I did what any new professional would do. I headed over to one of several organizations that sets standards for and certifies yoga teachers. For some perfectly legit — and some ridiculous reasons — this world is obsessed with little pieces of paper that often prove very little. […]
Sacred Artistry & Living a Higher Octave Life
I’ve been writing about path and purpose—how we can never really be off path or without purpose, not really. And last time, I wrote about the multidimenional nature of our path—how our path has a sort of low octave and a high octave version, so to speak. Today, I’m going to share with you why […]
Meme Busting – The Problem With What We Think We Know
This morning, while purusing one of my favorite Facebook groups, I encountered one of those very political posts that sparks heated debate. It was started by one of the members concerning the Gilet Jaunes in France which just today is in its fifth week. The group in question is one which serves the English-speaking population […]
It’s Not the Path But The Way You Walk It – Part II
In my last post, I wrote about the fear-based idea that a person can ever be off their path. We can never be living someone else’s dream or walking anyone else’s path. The only one in your body is you. The only one in your mind is you—even if the seeds that have flowered there […]
It’s Not the Path But The Way You Walk It
I peruse a lot of social media groups that cater to what I guess I’d call “a spiritual mindset.” I’m often shocked to see the kind of ideas out there that one would think “being spiritual” would lead us away from. On closer inspection, one begins to see that the beliefs we had when we […]
