YES to More Self Love for YOU
November 27, 2009
By Susan Ariel Rainbow Kennedy
Susan Ariel Rainbow Kennedy How well and often do you love yourself? Are you your own best friend? How kindly and exquisitely do you tend to your own soul? Your answers to these questions may reveal an opportunity to practice more self-love. In my book: Fabulous Friendship Festival; Loving Wildly, Learning Deeply, Living Fully with Our Friends, I write about self-friendship, and have discovered through teaching workshops about it, that about 85% of people do… Read More >
The Audacity of Love
October 26, 2009
By Guest Blogger
Kathy Stevens, Founder of Catskill Animal Sanctuary The fact that Hannah the sheep is in love with Rambo the sheep is no secret. Indeed, this is obvious even to our first-time volunteers, as Hannah bolts from her stall each morning in search of her Romeo. If she finds him immediately, all is well. But if Rambo is out of sight, she is initially disturbed, then worried, and finally panic-stricken. Once she locates him, all is… Read More >
A Red State

By Sera Beak
Today, when I walked my dog through one of my favorite parks in SF, I came across a man standing still on the path, looking up at a tree in total awe, a soft smile playing across his face. As I respectfully approached him I realized I was witnessing a man witnessing something truly awesome. The moment felt holy, hushed, magical. When my dog barked, the shaman-like man turned to me and exclaimed: “Can you… Read More >

The Lovetarian Diet
August 26, 2009
By Gabrielle Bernstein
Four years ago, I decided to clean up my mind and become a loveatarian. Choosing loving thoughts over fearful delusions was a tough transition at first. Giving up fear is like giving up sugar. Much like sugar, fear is a sneaky ingredient that hides out in everything. And just when you think you’ve got it under control all of sudden it pops up again. Therefore releasing fearful patterns requires you become a loveatarian. One of… Read More >
Making Love a Habit
August 19, 2009
By Wendy Strgar
“Love and intimacy are at the root of what makes us sick and what makes us well, what causes sadness and what brings happiness, what makes us suffer and what leads to healing…I am not aware of any other factor in medicine- not diet, not smoking, not exercise, not stress, not genetics, not drugs, not surgery- that has a greater impact on our quality of life, incidence of illness and premature death from all causes.”… Read More >
A Blindfold?
July 7, 2009
By Parashakti Alsultany
I am often asked if one can participate in Dance of Liberation without wearing a blindfold. The idea of purposely setting aside one’s ability to see physically can seem strange, even intimidating, for many people. Yet my experience demonstrates over and over again what a gift it can become. Originating in my own shamanic apprenticeship, the use of a blindfold in all facets of my work is an invitation and tool to go on one’s… Read More >

I Hold A Space For Love
April 10, 2009
By Gabrielle Bernstein
I love my life. Today I see my world through shimmering golden lenses. Lenses, that filter my vision with love, inform my thoughts, fuel my emotions and support my vibrations. Today I choose love over fear in all situations. I feel abundant, happy and free. I was not always this enthusiastic about life. Four years ago I was trapped in a dark space trying to scream my way out. I identified closely with a story… Read More >
