exploring ways of being, connecting to something deeper, and consciousness through breath, art, writing, movement, sitting still, and asking a lot of questions.

🎧30-days of daily practice to guide those who struggle with their relationship to themselves
who want to compassionately journey inward and know themselves deeply
so they can make intuitive, self-supporting decisions.

😌A journey of knowing your breath.
Of knowing yourself.
Of making change one day, one moment, one small step at at a time.

💖A journey of learning what matters most to you and moving in that direction starting with this moment.

🌬️ A journey of letting go of what you’ve been taught to believe about breathing,
letting go of what you’ve been told about how different breathing techniques “should” make you feel
and purely exploring and learning your own breath, body, mind and being.

🤷🏼‍♀️A journey of me strangely and honestly showing up exactly as I am, creating something that’s kind of live voice messages from a friend, meets practical information about the breath, meets deep reflection, meets guided meditation, breathing and journaling practices, meets the soundscapes of life and living.

Everyday I sit and meditate on the flower
but it’s been days since I saw the flower

days since I’ve seen the world
beyond my own mind

to look at the world
behind visions of thought

is it a problem?
or is it healing?

is it keeping me from getting anywhere?
or is it the path?

to watch myself
not watching
the unfolding life in front of me

awareness and practice
awareness and practice (intentional action)
awareness (consciousness) and practice (intentional action)

tell me what you want that can’t be achieved with these two things?

when awareness and practice
are met with time and space

when life is breathed into
and breathed from

conscious awareness
and intentional practice

the snow came in and wiped the scene clean

a blank slate

no more mountains in the distance
except the distant past

the memories of what was there the previous mornings

just some branches are left
the ones where the birds were singing yesterday

today is different

let today be different

collect the memories that serve you,
that really actually serve you,
and let the rest go

break free

be free

learn to listen to the silence
behind your loud thoughts

there is something fruitful there
if you can learn to listen to the seed

if you can learn silence

but of course your thoughts are so loud
your memories so vibrant
that when you look out the blank window
you can still see the mountains in your mind

mountains louder than silence

clearer to you
than white light.

Sofia,
Belgrade,

I look at this picture and think it’s a nice picture.

I think,
I look pretty,

but I question,
what is pretty?

my mind flips through images of magazines, ads and instagram posts telling me, “this is pretty,”
no, I’m not pretty then,

I’m not beautiful.

But then I think of all the naked bodies I saw walking around the european spas,

I didn’t think any less of any of them, actually
I saw so much beauty,

the diversity of beauty,
in bodies, in faces, in beings,

I too must be beautiful.

I look at the colours of the image and think, these are beautiful colours,
I like the way my eyes stand out,

that is beautiful,

but as I look at the face, the eyes, I wonder
who is this? who is that? who am I?

who is this body, this face I’m looking at?

who is this changing hair, clothes, skin I call Laura, they call Laura?

and why does she want to present herself as pretty?
for who?
for what?

what would it mean
to fall into that category?

the way each outfit I wear puts me into a category
and somedays I think, I wore the wrong outfit,
somedays I think, I represented wrong,

and anyway, isn’t this all trivial
when there’s great suffering and sadness

but is this not important too?
not the question, or the answer,
but the trivial humanness,
the mind that gives weight and importance to this,

that somehow, with shame looped in, my existence tells me
this matters right now,

but something deeper wonders,
who am I?

who is this?

who is that?

who is she
beyond this image,
beyond the mind that wonders about trivial things,
and the body that feels the weight of those trivialities?

does this matter?

but what matters more
than feeling it

and being present for it all?

than connecting with you
through this feeling, these questions, these words,
who I wonder, maybe, feels something like this too,

who questions something like this too,

who is trivial and vain and judgmental and full-hearted
too?

here,
in this moment,
is all the significance,

here,
the way my feet talk to the stone

the way my lungs
speak with the leaves

the way my eyes and ears
speak with the in-stream of colour, texture, light

the way my voice makes sounds
that weave into the waves of this moment

never before have sounds weaved like this

never again will sounds weave like this

and I’m not sure why or how

that matters

but some feeling

in this ephemeral body
tells me

it matters.

some feeling

in this body
given to me from the past,
 this body that only knows how to feel
because of the ancestral bodies that felt
and birthed this one into a future existence

each emotion a reconnection to the lives once lived

to the lives that once
occupied space,
carried weight,
expressed language,

and felt

just as I feel.

lives that felt
full and embodied
present moments

with wandering thoughts
and fears

and hope, and gratitude, and love,

their lives, no less full and weighted than my own,

now, ether and light

that I reach for

forgetting

it’s in my hand

it is my hand.

that feeling when you’re at the end of a journal
and you learned so much about yourself
filling in each page

and you didn’t know you were transforming
but when you look back
the person who wrote those earlier pages
seems so far away

though there’s some thread of you
carried throughout,

handwriting you will always recognize as your own,

and somehow the journal feels so much heavier in its fullness than when you first opened it’s blank pages,

that feeling of letting it all go
carrying forward only what is essential

mood: the shadow queen

I just thought I’d let you know that I have a podcast with recorded meditations and meditative talks (where I ramble on about presence and existence) it’s on all the podcast places.
It’s called Deeper Consciousness.

I also write a poem every Sunday and send it to the people subscribed to my email list. I guess I could say it’s about being more mindful, present, gentle and loving. But really it’s about what I’ve been reflecting on the past week.
It’s called Sunday Love Notes.

You can find links to these things on my website.

(also I think self-promoting is really awkward)

have you ever experienced a moment so beautiful
you wonder if your heart can handle it

in your gratitude you feel the grief of knowing this moment will end

and all you can do is let it in fully,

all you can do is try to be present,

letting it wash over you,

soaking it in,

hoping your memory can capture as much of it as possible

so you can come back
when you need it
 when you forget

how beautiful and sacred it is
to be alive

to be living, feeling,
loving
and being loved

as the world, the universe, offers itself to you over and over
through every possible expression.
