Aloha Wanderful. Welcome to my collection of somewhat organized and personally curated thoughts about life, somatic movement, bodies, human behavior, embodiment evolution, and the spiritual process, all via my slightly scattered brain. My life journey has had curves, surprise twists, ups, downs, and everything in between. The road, though at times rocky, has been beautiful and exciting. And though I’m sure there were more direct routes, I have no regrets about the paths I have traveled. Writing has been a wonderful outlet to organize my feelings, process emotions, and cast my clear intentions out to the universe. My desire here is to share experiences and adventures through my own lens and to use my voice as a tool for peaceful awakening, both for myself and for the collective. I hope that my writings spark creative thought and conversation, with the intention of growth and expansion through love.
Please read what calls to you and add it to your expansion.

What Trauma Has Taught Me
Writing about my emotional response to the fires is in no way meant to upstage, dramatize, or diminish the experience of those who were present at ground zero or touched directly by loss. I am sharing the account of one human being, who is looking at the painful events of her life and doing her best to see each moment as an opportunity to grow and heal.
Why I love Mindful Movement Part 2 - Confidence!
At this moment, I am a woman of 48 who is a mother to a very energetic 5-year-old, so having the energy and the strength to chase her around is extremely important to me. Just yesterday we played a game of tag at the beach and she got tired before I did. For me, this is a big check in the win column. I also love to hike, explore and play in our world, all of which require a certain amount of confidence in my body and what it is capable of.
Why I love Mindful Movement Part 1, The Physical Body
By staying mindfully present we actively engage our brains in the task of creating more physical balance.
