When I was at the 1992 UN Earth Summit, the era of thinking was that, to curb the global climate crisis, we would have to fall back to simpler, less evolved ways. We would have to 'give up' so much of what we've gained since the advent of Agriculture and the Industrial Revolution. We would have to become 'primitive' again. Hmmm. This mis-perception arose from a singular angle of logic – one that apparently was the Continue Reading
The Solution – Applying Our Brilliance to a Larger World View
Firstly, we have to care enough to change. We could, of course, let the natural world collapse beneath us and around us, and witness ourselves suddenly slip away - like watching our own mass death. (Who would want this?) Or we can have faith in ourselves. We can – through our healing, individually and collectively – rediscover our self-empowerment, tasting the exciting energy of possibility Continue Reading
Activism with Heart
In the ensuing months following the UN Earth Summit I enjoyed a wave of direct contact with activists in many fields, including the environment, human rights, women's issues and more. To me, these were all spokes of the very same wheel. I had not worked directly with activists before. This was at the height of the road blockades in various old-growth forests in British Columbia - richly bio-diverse terrain which was being Continue Reading
Sensing Your Full Potential
Relax in stillness. Allow your body to become heavy – in its seat if you are sitting, or on the ground if you are lying down. Allow your body to become heavy, its weight sinking into the surface beneath you. Your physiological processes will begin to slow. The electrical currents in your body will begin to quieten. Allow your breath to slow down. You may find yourself drawn to take a few deep breaths. Or just allow your breath Continue Reading
Our Full Potential
Some of us catch fleeting glimpses of what our full potential might be … through moments of heroism when our adrenaline allows Atlas to perform miraculous feats of impossibility through the power of our body. … When all life stills, and our mind pierces daily consciousness … and we see a glorious reality which is … beyond our life here, on this day. A good friend once described to me one of the most profound moments in her life – a Continue Reading

It Depends … How You Look At Things
It depends how you look at things, what you see. From inside 'me', the vision when I was ten was the first such experience of this lifetime. Yet there had been others which immediately, at the moment of their being an 'event', became relegated to 'forgotten memories'. One of these surfaced in my consciousness many years later. It was a near-death experience, when I was two. My breath was being blocked. I was Continue Reading
This is a Story of Waking Up
This is a story of waking up, of remembering, of regaining consciousness. This is my story, and yet I believe it is yours - everyone's. Use my story as a template. Insert your details - passions, activities, personal events. And it will serve to funnel you open, too. Know that each degree to which anyone peels open, like a flower blooming, affects us all. We are all intricately woven in this, 'the big ripple'. Continue Reading
Preparing the Field
It all began when I was ten. I may have experienced altered states of consciousness before then, but if so, none that had constellated themselves as clearly as this ... Eyes closed. Seeing inward. Me. In a log cabin. Simple, rustic. Red checkered curtains. Then a swift awareness that the inside of the cabin wasn't what was important for me to see. Outside now. Back toward front Continue Reading

This channeling flowed as the completion pages of Birds’ Eye View – A Travel Guide to the Universe. Breathe … Read slowly ... Drink in the energy … of this holy wholly transmission :-) I am here.
