24.01.2022 There is no greater threat to our future than climate change. This Christmas, help plant native forests that reduce the effects of the climate crisis.

24.01.2022 "Yesterday I met a whole person. It is a rare experience, but always an illuminating and ennobling one. It costs so much to be a full human being that there are... very few who have the enlightenment and the courage to pay the price One has to abandon altogether the search for security, and reach out to the risk of living with both arms. One has to embrace the world like a lover, and yet demand no easy return on love. One has to accept pain as a condition of existence. One has to court doubt and darkness as the cost of knowing. One needs a will stubborn in conflict, yet open always to the total acceptance of every consequence of living and dying. -Morris West, from his novel, Shoes of the Fisherman Art | Portrait of a Bagobo Tribal Woman by Jojie Alcantara (Art & Photography)

23.01.2022 Beautiful words and so perfect when we walk the Caminos.

20.01.2022 Is there an invitation for us to experience this time as Sabbath?

20.01.2022 THE SEA IN YOU When I lie next to you under the moon, I do not know who I have become unless I move closer to you, obeying the give and take... of the earth as it breathes the slender length of your body, so that in breathing with the tide that breathes in you, and moving with you as you come and go, and following you, half in light and half in dark, I feel the first firm edge of my floating palm touch and then trace the pale light of your shoulder to the faint, moon-lit shadow of your smooth cheek, and drawing my finger through the pearl water of your skin, I sense the breath on your lips touch and then warm the finest, furthest, most unknown edge of my sense of self. So that I come to you under the moon as if I had swum under the deepest arch of the ocean, to find you living where no one could possibly could live, and to feel you breathing, where no one could possibly breathe, and I touch your skin as I would touch a pale whispering spirit of the tides that my arms try to hold with the wrong kind of strength and my lips try to speak with the wrong kind of love and I follow you through the ocean night listening for your breath in my helpless calling to love you as I should, and I lie next to you in your sleep as I would next to the sea, overwhelmed by the rest that arrives in me and by the weight that is taken from me and what, by morning, is left on the shore of my waking joy. Title poem from 'THE SEA IN YOU' : Twenty Poems of Requited and Unrequited Love David Whyte and Many Rivers Press Second Poem for th Valentines Week series: Falling in love is experienced physically like a real falling, the disorienting sense of ground giving way toward the mysterious tidal pull of the other, or more disturbingly, falling toward a part of our self we had never quite understood, toward a form of happiness we often feel we do not deserve, and to a depth we did not feel we could venture to breathe in, as if swimming under the deepest arch of the ocean. There is also a strange, tidal coming and going of edges and boundaries, influenced by the weather, the moon, the stars: everything it seems, but our own will. In love we subvert the everyday structures of the life we had built so carefully and raze them to foundations on which a new, shared life can be built again. Unrequited love has its own form of fearful falling, but falling into a full felt and reciprocated love we face the most difficult, most revealing and most beautiful questions of all: are we large enough and generous enough and present enough; are we deserving enough, and ready enough to hold the joy, the future grief, and the overwhelming sense of privileged blessing that lies in that embrace? ...

20.01.2022 Talk about perfect timing! Kelly Woodward captured this amazing shot from Bellerive looking towards Hobart. "It's a one shot in a lifetime really," Kelly sai...d. "I was lining up the boat with the sunset on the water then the pod of dolphins appeared and I just timed it by waiting for one to dive down, knowing another would dive up. And I got it!" : Kelly Woodward

19.01.2022 Please take a moment and watch this. I have no words except PLEASE from the bottom of my heart, watch this. It is the answer; the fuel that wants to be ignited... in all of us as it is who we ARE!! Love to all that watch and share. LOVE - It is the answer and transcends all frequencies.

17.01.2022 You have traveled too fast over false ground; Now your soul has come, to take you back. Take refuge in your senses, open up To all the small miracles you rushed... through. Become inclined to watch the way of rain When it falls slow and free. Imitate the habit of twilight, Taking time to open the well of color That fostered the brightness of day. Draw alongside the silence of stone Until its calmness can claim you. Be excessively gentle with yourself.

17.01.2022 The dead are not distant or absent. They are alongside us. When we lose someone to death, we lose their physical image and presence, they slip out of visible fo...rm into invisible presence. This alteration of form is the reason we cannot see the dead. But because we cannot see them does not mean that they are not there. Transfigured into eternal form, the dead cannot reverse the journey and even for one second re-enter their old form to linger with us a while. Though they cannot reappear, they continue to be near us and part of the healing of grief is the refinement of our hearts whereby we come to sense their loving nearness. When we ourselves enter the eternal world and come to see our lives on earth in full view, we may be surprised at the immense assistance and support with which our departed loved ones have accompanied every moment of our lives. In their new, transfigured presence their compassion, understanding and love take on a divine depth, enabling them to become secret angels guiding and sheltering the unfolding of our destiny.

16.01.2022 We are delighted to share more about two of our esteemed International Faculty for the 6th Australasian Constellation Intensive in Mar 2020 "Like Doctors Witho...ut Borders, we envision a world full of hearts without borders. The values we hold dearsustainable social impact, radical authenticity and transparency, individual and collective empowerment, compassionate kindness, creative innovation and our unyielding dedication to tangible resultsguide us in all we do. Our work supports our vision for ourselves, our clients, and the world at large". Emily Blefeld & Dan Cohen Seeing With Your Heart creators Dan Cohen, PhD and Emily Blefeld, LICSW are two of the United States most skilled innovators in merging advanced consciousness and spiritual principles into therapeutic practice. Scientists by background and Mystics by practice, Dan and Emily approach constellating and consciousness from both experiential and evidentiary standpoints. Their unique therapeutic approach has revolutionized both their practices and created scores of extraordinary success stories. Together Dan and Emily access the ordinary, ancestral and spiritual dimensions of consciousness to create healing processes that are illuminating and life-transforming. In the field of their Constellations, ancestral presences often become tangibly real. Behind the pain of personal and transgenerational trauma, people can feel love and receive healing from the consciousness that envelops us. Emilys the most talented and skilled practitioner of this work that Ive ever met. When we work together we can do something beyond what we can do individually.

Emily helps change-agents, visionaries and entrepreneurs release limiting beliefs, patterns, and habits and open to passion, pleasure, and purpose. Her presentations and experiential processes dismantle the old paradigms, outdated narratives, and ancient codes that hold us back and invoke the process of remembering, awakening, and claiming wholeness. Emily holds a Masters of Social Work from the University of Minnesota and is the co-founder of Seeing with Your Heart. She serves on the faculty of the North American Systemic Constellations Intensive and has presented at the Omega Institute, Kripalu, and the 2013, 2015, and 2017 U.S. Systemic Constellation Conferences.

Using intelligence, heart, intuition, and humour, Dan offers clients profound and transformative healing while expanding understanding and restoring peace of mind. 'Working with Dan, things shiftfast. We dive into the depths of consciousness, travel between the worlds, and create transformation beyond comprehension. This works.

16.01.2022 And the people stayed home. And read books, and listened, and rested, and exercised, and made art, and played games, and learned new ways of being, and were st...ill. And listened more deeply. Some meditated, some prayed, some danced. Some met their shadows. And the people began to think differently. And the people healed. And, in the absence of people living in ignorant, dangerous, mindless, and heartless ways, the earth began to heal. And when the danger passed, and the people joined together again, they grieved their losses, and made new choices, and dreamed new images, and created new ways to live and heal the earth fully, as they had been healed." ~Kitty O'Meara'~ Feel free to share Dear Global Family Bless you Julie Smerdon . Thank you

15.01.2022 We are crossing the bridge To the other side of these times Lets walk gently and with care

15.01.2022 Lockdown Yes there is fear. Yes there is isolation.... Yes there is panic buying. Yes there is sickness. Yes there is even death. But, They say that in Wuhan after so many years of noise You can hear the birds again. They say that after just a few weeks of quiet The sky is no longer thick with fumes But blue and grey and clear. They say that in the streets of Assisi People are singing to each other across the empty squares, keeping their windows open so that those who are alone may hear the sounds of family around them. They say that a hotel in the West of Ireland Is offering free meals and delivery to the housebound. Today a young woman I know is busy spreading fliers with her number through the neighbourhood So that the elders may have someone to call on. Today Churches, Synagogues, Mosques and Temples are preparing to welcome and shelter the homeless, the sick, the weary All over the world people are slowing down and reflecting All over the world people are looking at their neighbours in a new way All over the world people are waking up to a new reality To how big we really are. To how little control we really have. To what really matters. To Love. So we pray and we remember that Yes there is fear. But there does not have to be hate. Yes there is isolation. But there does not have to be loneliness. Yes there is panic buying. But there does not have to be meanness. Yes there is sickness. But there does not have to be disease of the soul Yes there is even death. But there can always be a rebirth of love. Wake to the choices you make as to how to live now. Today, breathe. Listen, behind the factory noises of your panic The birds are singing again The sky is clearing, Spring is coming, And we are always encompassed by Love. Open the windows of your soul And though you may not be able to touch across the empty square, Sing. - Br. Richard Hendrick, OFM March 13th 2020 art | Unknown

14.01.2022 HOMAGE (For Mary Oliver On the Anniversary of her Death)... So simple so clear, so here. Like a cat pawing the air or the whip crack sound of a dog snapping at a fly. Always toward the end, the way we are never quite prepared to find the beautiful sense of hidden pleasurable and complete surprise in the poem until reading the very last line, but which is the one you remember and that stays with you day after day when you do. ... David Whyte Poem for Mary Oliver A homage to Mary Oliver on the anniversary of her death, to the Mary who has written above the sound of the wailing, ghost like voices asking her not to leave the house, who addressed the crowded hall of life saying she was a woman who loved a woman, who cast her affections and her words like heavenly dice, and said 'every number's a winner! Who lay on the ground through the night for us, speaking through leaves and soft pine needles in youthful ecstasy, who dared to love and to speak from love's foundational vulnerabilities: the Mary who has asked us to walk with her and converse with her and remember with her through the throes of all shared grief, who still writes, under our trees, by our marsh water, looking out from the porch in starlight, our virtuosa practitioner of both the beautiful and the lingering question and who no doubt, when we make the pilgrimage, in years to come, will walk quietly and without fuss out of her grave, and past us, head inclined toward the ground, while pressing a last firmly penciled line into our hand, saying: 'Don't mind me, but have you seen the way the pale light fades, as it quietly puts its shoes on and takes its leave?

13.01.2022 Advice from María Sabina, Mexican healer and poet - Heal yourself with the light of the sun and the rays of the moon. With the sound of the river and the water...fall. With the swaying of the sea and the fluttering of birds. Heal yourself with mint, neem, and eucalyptus. Sweeten with lavender, rosemary, and chamomile. Hug yourself with the cocoa bean and a hint of cinnamon. Put love in tea instead of sugar and drink it looking at the stars. Heal yourself with the kisses that the wind gives you and the hugs of the rain. Stand strong with your bare feet on the ground and with everything that comes from it. Be smarter every day by listening to your intuition, looking at the world with your forehead. Jump, dance, sing, so that you live happier. Heal yourself, with beautiful love, and always remember ... you are the medicine. See more

13.01.2022 It appears the whole world is currently on an imposed Pilgrimage. A pilgrimage provides us time to reflect on life.. We return to basics of lifes essentials W...e slow down enough to search for your own answers within. We process our thought and emotions during pilgrimage..

13.01.2022 During these trying days of social distancing, self-isolating and quarantines, days rife with fear and anxiety, my colleagues and I thought you might like some ...company. So each day we will be introducing you to poets we have met over the years. The only contagion they will expose you to is a measure of joy, reflection and meditation brought on by the best words in the best order. Enjoy. Bill Moyers ------------------------------------------------------------------------- In this clip, we hear from poet Naomi Shihab Nye. She is the winner, most recently, of the 2019 National Book Critics Circle Ivan Sandrof Lifetime Achievement Award. Before reading the poem, Nye recalls her grandmother, who was born in Palestine in 1888 and lived to be 106 years old. Hadra Khadra lived through the turmoil of upheavals in Palestine and says Nye, "Her whole life was in a context of upheaval. And yet within herself she maintained this fantastic sense of humor and a great memory and a love for language." "My Grandmother in the Stars" It is possible we will not meet again on earth. To think this fills my throat with dust. Then there is only the sky tying the universe together. Just now the neighbors horse must be standing patiently, hoof on stone, waiting for his day to open. What you think of him, and the villages one heroic cow is the knowledge I wish to gather. I bow to your rugged feet, the moth-eaten scarves that knot your hair. Where we live in the world is never one place. Our hearts, those dogged mirrors, keep flashing us moons before we are ready for them. You and I on a roof at sunset, our two languages adrift, heart saying, Take this home with you, never again, and only memory making us rich.

10.01.2022 THE Courage in Poetry: live.davidwhyte.com An Invitation to Solace, Companionship and Courage A Live Online Series taking place over three Sunday mornings in Ap...ril As I cannot travel to you to read and speak as I am accustomed, Ive created the opportunity for you come and join me - for solace, for companionship and for much needed courage in these times of collective difficulty and hibernation; a conversation for solace, for compassion and perhaps most of all for courage. You will join me in my study; surrounded by my books and music, for a series of three Sunday morning sessions in April (Pacific West Coast Time). Of course, this will be early afternoon on the east coast of North America, and early evening in Europe or South Africa. The sessions will be recorded for watching and listening at your leisure, so if you are in Asia, Australia or New Zealand you will not need to rise in the wee hours of the morning. Please come and join the surprisingly diverse worldwide community of enquiry that has grown around my work over the years. I look forward to inviting you into my home and study. To learn more and to register: live.davidwhyte.com Your registration fee helps to keep four very dedicated and loyal employees engaged at Many Rivers, the tiny but exceedingly wonderful little organization that has been a vehicle for my poetry and work over these last decades. It will help us to emerge strong and ready for the next epoch, helping us to help many other lives when we emerge from this difficult time. Having said that, if any of you have lost your livelihoods, or are undergoing hardship, or live in countries where the local currency is very low against the dollar, please e-mail one of those very dedicated employees at [email protected] and we will give you a heavily discounted rate to make joining my Three Sundays in April a possibility for you. Keep safe, keep close to yourself if you cannot be close to others, and above all, keep your hopes alive. David Whyte

10.01.2022 AT THE END OF THE YEAR As this year draws to its end, We give thanks for the gifts it brought And how they became inlaid within... Where neither time nor tide can touch them. Days when beloved faces shone brighter With light from beyond themselves; And from the granite of some secret sorrow A stream of buried tears loosened. We bless this year for all we learned, For all we loved and lost And for the quiet way it brought us Nearer to our invisible destination.

09.01.2022 Message from the Council of 13 Indigenous Grandmothers http://www.grandmotherscouncil.org/ "As you move through these changing times... be easy on yourself and... be easy on one another. You are at the beginning of something new. You are learning a new way of being. You will find that you are working less in the yang modes that you are used to. You will stop working so hard at getting from point A to point B the way you have in the past, but instead, will spend more time experiencing yourself in the whole, and your place in it. Instead of traveling to a goal out there, you will voyage deeper into yourself. Your mother's grandmother knew how to do this. Your ancestors from long ago knew how to do this. They knew the power of the feminine principle... and because you carry their DNA in your body, this wisdom and this way of being is within you. Call on it. Call it up. Invite your ancestors in. As the yang based habits and the decaying institutions on our planet begin to crumble, look up. A breeze is stirring. Feel the sun on your wings."

09.01.2022 Close your eyes. Gather all the kindling About your heart To create one spark. That is all you need... To nourish the flame That will cleanse the dark Of its weight of festered fear.

06.01.2022 Therapeutic Touch - a gentle therapy which is 'profoundly simple and simply profound' compassion in action. Wonderful for use in aged care and palliative care

06.01.2022 The last few days I have found myself very anxious. Yet I am in a beautiful, quiet, secure outer place. Why this anxiety, why such suffering? One answer might... be in this passage from Henri Nouwen in his little book, "The Inner Voice of Love. Nouwen writes: Your pain, deep as it is, is connected with specific circumstances. You do not suffer in the abstract. You suffer because someone hurts you at a specific time and in a specific place. Your feelings of rejection, abandonment, and uselessness are rooted in the most concrete events. In this way all suffering is unique. This is eminently true of the suffering of Jesus. His disciples left him, Pilate condemned him, Roman soldiers tortured and crucified him. Still, as long as you keep pointing to the specifics, you will miss the full meaning of your pain. You will deceive yourself into believing that if the people, circumstances, and events had been different, your pain would not exist. This might be partly true, but the deeper truth is that the situation which brought about your pain was simply the form in which you came in touch with the human condition of suffering. Your pain is the concrete way in which you participate in the pain of humanity. Paradoxically, therefore, healing means moving from your pain to "the" pain.

02.01.2022 In Santa Fe it is near sundown and the opening of Advent's second night. One of the most important aspects of this Season and within our Spirituality is to rec...laim Holy Darkness. The core color of ancient Advent is a dark or midnight blue - the color of the night sky and the interior of the womb. (The colors of Purple and Pink come from a time when Atonement-Sin theology won the day.) For the followers of Quadratos/Heart and Mind - we are working to restore theosis and all of its traditions that were lost. This work of restoration is not about nostagia. Rather, the ancient Advent was a time where we made holy what is. And what is in the Northern Hemisphere in this Season is a time of profound darkness. This deep darkness has been seen as God's womb time. Another face of this darkness is that of the Black Madonna. In this time, we learn again that without this fertile and radiant darkness there is no birth, there is no re-birth, no growth, no transformation. We do not come to December to recall only sacred history. We come to the dark time to remind ourselves how far Atonement theology and its language of light against darkness has impoverished our hearts and minds and weakened our communities and relationships. ANY language, any prayer, any hymn (no matter how many centuries its been sung) that makes the dark less than the light is harmful to us. We have a long journey ahead. I ask you this season to take one step on that journey. Begin by reflecting on your use of every word that connotes darkness and 'shadow.' (Yes even Jung's use of the term 'shadow' is tinged with racism and the sins of the enlightenment.) As we celebrate the holiness of dark-skinned people, and as we remove the taint of darkness from women, LGBTQI and peoples of diversity - let us reclaim how a candle in the dark - is not lit to banish - but rather to decorate the holy dark. Over these coming weeks, I will be a guest on a number of podcasts including the Robcast, the What If Project and Can I Say This at Church? I hope you will pause and listen. More than that I hope you will accept this moment to re-think EVERY use of the words for darkness and shadow. Let us truly live in the dark holy womb of God. And from this womb - may all fresh radiance usher forth. Photo: copy of the Black Madonna of Montserrat in a side chapel in the Santiago de Compostela Cathedral. Photo by Alexander John Shaia.

01.01.2022 My grandmother once gave me a tip: In difficult times, you move forward in small steps. Do what you have to do, but little by little. Don't think about the futu...re, or what may happen tomorrow. Wash the dishes. Remove the dust. Write a letter. Make a soup. You see? You are advancing step by step. Take a step and stop. Rest a little. Praise yourself. Take another step. Then another. You won't notice, but your steps will grow more and more. And the time will come when you can think about the future without crying. - Elena Mikhalkova (Image of Tasha Tudor, American Illustrator 1915-2008)
