Greetings friends, and welcome to my first "Postcard from the Path."
In this upcoming year I'll be visiting South America, West Africa, India and more.
And I'll be sharing each journey with you.
In this postcard, I'll be sharing with you my journeys in Cusco,
and the Nation of Qeros.
Plus an invitation to a shared morning practice through Zoom,
And an app that's helped me on my Journey.
So come along. Let's get to know Peru!
An Offering for Pachamama: with a Qeros Shaman
Munaychay
These last months in Cusco have been among the happiest of my life.
I ate delicious foods,
Made new friends,
And learned and grew in my study of holistic practices.
But more than anything else.
I fell in love.
With the mountains.
Every day I spent hours amidst their peaks, receiving the higher energies of the apus, feeling lifted, grateful, expanded, and happy.
I connected to these mountains in the way I’ve only before connected to friends and partners.
And in the mornings, I woke up early with an excitement and a joy for the days ahead.
When my time in Peru was drawing to a close, I felt a deep sense of gratitude, for how much I would miss these new friends.
And for learning what it’s like to feel “connected” with a land.
A connection I pray will continue and grow with each step upon this earth.
Shared Morning Practice
Every month, our circle gathers for a shared morning practice, with short periods of Yoga, Meditation, Words of Gratitude and Song, and sharing from the heart, all woven together into a holistic morning practice.
It's a great way to start the day,
and a sweet introduction to this holistic way of practice.
You're welcome to join in,
for as long or as little as you like!
Circle of LIfe: Shared Morning Practice
Tomorrow, August 27th from 9am-10:30 CST (10am-11:30 EST).
Meeting ID: 876 3537 0473
Passcode: 051366 (not required to enter)
One of my greatest joys is getting to share these practices with others, through phone calls, friendships, and spiritual coaching and mentorship.
Each member of the circle has their own style, and holistic practices,
and through our mentorship work together,
I help them to steady, evolve,
and bring the unique spiritual artistry of their path,
together with me and others,
and into a shared tradition.
If this speaks to you, send me a line, and let's talk more.
All my work is offered free of charge,
or on a sliding scale basis.

Resources for the Path:
The "I AM" App
One of my simplest, and most prescient resources is a phone app called "I AM."
The I AM app sends me 1-3 daily affirmations, that seem to come at the most opportune moments.
These affirmations help to generate gratitud and positive intention, and they support me with messages, guidance, and perspectives to consider.
Here’s a link if you’d like to give it a try.
