Today, I invite us into the breath… a deeper truth. Can we welcome into each day a pause? A deepening of the breath to touch that space which holds the truest essence of self.
In those still, sacred places, we discover the truth that we are not separate, isolated beings, but vibrant threads in a wider, living tapestry—a magical web of energies conversing, merging, and supporting each other, even when our experience may suggest otherwise. This “othering” of the world reflects what many of us call “separation sickness”—a symptom of forgetting our place within the whole, of viewing ourselves as isolated fragments rather than vital strands in the interconnected web of life.
If there were any “silver bullet” for creating a world that honors life in the deepest sense, I believe it is connection. If each human could hold this awareness of our profoundly interwoven world, we would naturally support the energetic flows that sustain balance. We would recognize that the homeless woman is you. The child with different-colored skin is you. The majestic tuna migrating like a songbird, the redwood forest breathing life into the atmosphere—all of this is you. Imagine a world shaped by humans attuned to the underlying conversations between all beings, who understand that each life form’s wellbeing impacts the whole. Moving as a keystone species in this sacred tapestry, we would act with reverence, honoring every thread and nurturing every breath of life.
Through deepening this awareness, we can glimpse a world more beautiful because we exist within it—aligned with the rhythms of nature, enlivened by our connection to all beings. This is not only possible; it is an invitation calling to each of us, waiting to be embraced.
Breathe the Depth of your Soul
Awaken beloved.
You.
That you, who floats to the surface and who’s
ancient breath kisses the sky
in gratitude for this awakening moment.
Hear the birds singing to your soul and take
One Deep Breath.
For the depths call to you,
below the surface
where the shadows dance in the crevices of stone and mud
gently hiding the golden civilization
that has always been your home…
Our Home.
You have curiously awakened from this gentle slumber,
releasing the beliefs trapped in the bubbles of the surface.
Allow your breath to create the plume of remembrance that unearths the ancient love you have always been.
Mirrored within these depths,
the surface awaits.
Reach into the silence
and here you will gently rise into the golden sun
where palm beaches of ancient atolls are dancing with fish.
For these shores are birthed from the same volcanoes
that once billowed smoke and ash.
The slumbering Phoenix rising from the ashes
into corals dancing with the kaleidoscope of life.
Come, dance with me.
I am here in these depths holding the golden mirror
that sees the clear mountain lakes reflecting the mandarin sky.
Together, we have left phosphorescent footprints in the sand,
printed in the memory of the minerals
and encoded within the waterfalls we kiss.
Only within these depths may we meet again.
Ecstasy folded within the curtains of light
dancing in our souls.
For they are only visible within the
depths of our ancient embrace.
Our magic unfolds within these depths,
dancing in the seas of lifetimes.
Breathe the depth of your soul into the
dancing light upon our waters.
