I have an amazing opportunity to serve the Forest Service as a District Recreation and Lands Staff and landscape Architect, down on the Oregon Coast. A dream come true! I am quite in love with the work, the people and the place.
However, I do not intend to stop bringing labyrinths for laughter to the world. I will soon gain my rhythm and pace to offer LevityZen artworks, classes and installations! I am working on the plans the Corvallis Riverfront Park-Shawala Point Labyrinth-Landscape Art for the World Labyrinth Day- Walk @ 1 as One, which is the first Saturday in May. We are inviting sacred drumming to join us! Hope to see you there!

So excited to be at this year's Rasani Fair sharing my LevityZen Tracing Laughing Labyrinth art! Stop by for my feel good energy clearings using yogic-laughter!
Come see my latest info for providing 14'-20' portable LevityZen laughing labyrinths for school mindfulness programs and retreat centers.
I recently went through a big out pour and release of stored emotion. The sensation was one of tremendous grieving of loss... losing a potential future, not created. It felt as if I was being broken open. It felt as if I was adamantly letting go and at the same time desperately not wanting to let go. IT HURT. It hurt similar to the opposing yank you feel when you do not let go... after strongly propelling yourself to the next grab bar. It momentarily felt as if I could never truly go forward again.
I have had insights about the importance of focusing on the bar you are aiming to grab, more than the bar you are holding, before. And yet, I didn't realize how much I practiced the pattern of focusing on the 'letting go' action, more than the 'intentional forward grabbing' of the next bar. They are two opposite intents and actions... especially if they are individually focused upon. Although, when the focus is purely forward, they magically synchronize together. I speak a lot about 69 living... the balance of giving and receiving in joy. This insight of intentional reaching for the next grab and letting go synchronization, deepens my understanding of 69 living. I am seeing the importance of dedicating our time towards Self love through our forward actions, as the means for serving the world. I am learning a new practice of intentionally fanning my flame first, so it's light radiates and inspires others to live in their light, with their love. May we practice... Focusing on our intentions and synchronizing the letting go, with ease and gracious momentum forward... Be Peace in action. (I appreciate this image from the American Ninja Warriors)
