This is the first Part of The Circle of Gratitude Story series. Be sure to check out the Whole overview and introduction here. The Circle of Gratitude is a platform for people to create gift relationships within a community of individuals desiring to support each other. Last week I introduced the overall story arc to The Circle of Gratitude, an idea that has been evolving over the last […]
In response to the many reflections that I am observing lately around diet and food choices, I thought it would be an appropriate topic to pull out of my “to write” list. Before I begin I want to share that you will not find any external sources or appeals to authority in this blog – only that from my own personal experience – which may or may not be […]
Moving Into Conscious Relationship Five Tips for Communal Living I would like to dive into a topic that has been a major theme of experience and reflection for me during the last few years. While I hardly consider myself an expert (still learning just as much as I always have) on communal living, I feel drawn to share a few observations that have come into focus in that time. […]

Lunar Chakra Cleanse Lessons A couple weeks ago I completed a cleanse that I created and named the Lunar Chakra Cleanse. It involved eating foods matching the colours of each of the seven chakras (ROYGBIV) during one moon cycle, four days for each colour for a total of 28 days.

Indeed, the steps required to repair our home […]
The Lunar Chakra Cleanse A few of my roommates and I have decided to create and follow a 28 day food challenge which will sync us up to the lunar cycle and integrate the seven chakras. The whole arc begins this Friday, January 11th during the new moon phase and ends 28 days later during the next new moon. This full harmonic cycle is divided into seven smaller cycles of four days […]
Give Yourself Permission Part One Last June I found myself being drawn to experience what it was like to fast for an extended period of time. Over the course of the two days of juicing and the seven days of only water, I remembered some incredible insights about my relationship with my body. I say ‘remembered’ because I believe that all we are really doing in this life is remembering, […]
A few weeks ago I read a book titled “The Transformational Power of Fasting” by Stephen Buhner. The thread of ideas he wove around the tool of fasting were extremely thought provoking. The material presented can be confrontational to many people as it touches a deeply rooted relationship within us: our relationship with food. In an effort to dive within to uncover the essence of my connection with food, I […]
