“Tell me, what is it you plan do dowith your one wild and precious life?” (Mary Oliver) As life shifts and experiences are lived, I return to this question. Trusting and wondering at the same time.

Is it worth it?
This is a question I’ve been asking myself a lot the last few weeks. When life throws you opportunities for perspective, for reflection and introspection, things that seemed important and vital lose their grip.

Today I practice . . . Grief

Health: The Possibilities
Heath, and whatever that means to you, is a journey without destination. It is a process where we tackle one obstacle, challenge, or something we’d like to change, only to prepare ourselves for another—an aspect of health maybe we weren’t ready or prepared to face head on before. Learning to be strong in body can …
