Love Personified

Friday Feb 12 2010

   By Shae Hadden

In honor of Valentine's Day....


Love is.

Regardless of what life presents,
this Love moves with grace through
time and space,
disclosing through thoughts and
Being
the essence of what is
and who we really are,
embracing it all
wholeheartedly with acceptance and
Joy

The boundaries of Love 
are undefined,
limitless,
unconstrained,
non-existent

Love is
All.

Holiday Travels & H1N1

Thursday Dec 10 2009

Here are some helpful tips for travelling this holiday season:

Review international policies. Some countries do screenings and exams at airports, and can quarantine passengers in a hospital or hotel chosen by the government for up to 7 days. Around the holidays, screening procedures (including filling out questionnaires and having your temperature taken) could cause significant delays. At the moment, neither the U.S. nor Canada[Read More]

Health is a Function of Participation

Friday Oct 09 2009

By Jim Selman | Bio
I remember this phrase from the est training in the 1970s. It was one of the maxims the people received at the end of the program in ‘the little book of aphorisms’. This booklet was filled with Werner Erhard’s insights on life and basically reinforced the idea that ‘this is it’—life is what it is and reality doesn’t care what we think. The point was to stop being victims and ‘make a difference’. It was a great experience for hundreds of thousands of folks looking for answers to life’s big questions like “Who am I?”, “What is my purpose?”, “What’s it all about?”…. and on and on. The fact is that, in spite of VietNam and a lot of social unrest, those were exciting times when young Americans were beginning to wake up and take responsibility for their world.[Read More]

Our Food and Health: At the Tipping Point

Wednesday Sep 02 2009

   By Sharon Knoll | Bio

I come from generations of food growers. And it is clear to me that eating is one of the most intimate of actions. We take into ourselves the whole of the plant or animal, including the environment in which it was raised and killed. We take in the work and the well-being, or lack of well-being, of those who feed us. When my daughter was younger and went through a McDonald’s phase she wanted to know why the meat didn’t taste as good as the grass-fed beef raised by some friends of ours. Their beautiful cattle were allowed to roam and eat the grass, rather than be fed in filthy feedlots, standing in manure.

The Importance of Sandcastles

Wednesday Aug 19 2009

By Shae Hadden | Bio
Friends and family have been stressing the importance of taking vacations with me for years. I have somewhat deliberately avoided the conversation as much as possible until now. End result: a lifetime of little travel, lots of work and limited 'fun'.All work and no play makes for a dull life. I've been beginning to wonder if perhaps[Read More]

Slowing Down

Monday Jul 06 2009

The July 4th long weekend is coming to a close, but we don't have to limit our enjoyment of life to these hours when we have 'time off' work. Steve Goldberg over at Upside to the Downturn published the following poem, a timely reminder to savor life as it happens.[Read More]

Mindfulness and Aging Parents

Monday Jun 29 2009

   By Shae Hadden | Bio
I was talking with a friend recently about our parents, about what we're observing in their health as they grow older and what we think is possible for them in terms of living arrangements. I think a lot of Boomers are in this same conversation these days. A few things we discussed got me wondering about how 'true' any of our thinking about health issues in later life really is for our parents. I began to ask myself whether we are fully present and mindful about this...[Read More]
