Word Witchery
Hello Beautiful,
Is it time to create a journaling practice that brings you more clarity, creativity, and inspired change?
Your words hold incredible power. They help you uncover what’s true, imagine what’s possible, and gently guide you toward the life you’re ready to create.
I’d love to invite you to join me for From the Body to the Page: Word Witchery—a six-week online journaling experience that’s so much more than a writing class.
Together we’ll gather in a warm, supportive circle of amazing women to explore stories, poetry, guided prompts, reflection, and creative expression. No writing experience is needed—just curiosity and a willingness to listen to your own inner wisdom.

Hello!
Carrying on this weekly vibe for all of us, a week of astonishment, heartache, questioning, as well as my own personal recovering from bronchitis, and carrying on…
Stepping into the big girl shoes of leadership, of service, of holding the torch of love, passion, creativity, and feminine power.
I let go of shock, of amazement, and know that now we can all assemble, stand tall, show up, speak up, and live with our own authenticity, our own values, and our connection with our communities.
We still live with our creative visions, we still desire to make this world a better place, we still live with our desires and most of all, we move forward with gratitude, for what we have, where we have been, and what we have been able to create and build, alone, and together.
And what we can do. To stay inspired, to never stop moving forward with our dreams.
LIfe is a dance. We dance in unison, we dance with integrity, we move with spirit, and what the ancestors have taught us. We listen to what can be. We build centers of healing, we create sacred spaces for ritual, places to create, we move our bodies with spirit led connection, that eye and soul contact, that listening to the deep rhythms inside us. We dance our talk. Showing up. We do what we say we will do, want to do. We don’t back down (thanks Tom Petty).
We know what we are here for and want we want to create. And co-create together. The support, the inspiration, the connection.
Noone can hold us back, no one can take that from us. We are women and men, who are magical, powerful entities, we hold the key to life, we hold the visions, the mothering life-giving forces, the crone wisdom, and the beautiful maiden voyages of youth. the guradians. The warrior spirits. The wild forces.

Ramblings and Poetry
by me!
And so this one is about Returning, I recently wrote this…
Returning
She weeps
She mourns
The yesteryears
As she pulls back into herself
She becomes fearless
Again
Sifting through the changes
Praying to her guardians
Her gods
Her mothers
Letting go of the dis-ease
She climbs into the stars
The moon
The sun
To change courses
Again
Grasping onto the spirit way
To work her magic
Again
Fierce with her beliefs of herself
Centered and sure
No and again
Cloaked now in the comfort
Of sacredness
She feels the desire weling up inside
What she used to know so well
It is returning

Another poem, experience, and the and Last Day to Join Us!
Emerging, Again
I talk alot about using our words to help us define, redefine, reevaluate, shift, explore, and dive in to what is about to Emerge for us, as women in mid-life, as creatives, as we shift into this new stage of life. New desires.
What are you emerging from? And ready for? Are you meandering, checking things out? Are you cleaning out, or adding in? Are you feeling like seasoned roots or newly planted seeds?
I did talk about this years ago on one of my FB Lives, and continue to do so for you, woman, When I was running another fabulous mastermind, and I talked about this and more on the FB Live, click here if you haven’t seen it…
Elevate and Illuminate….this is a recurring theme in my work as a coach, and as an artist, writer, dancer myself, and as we step into our divine feminine essence, which feels so easy to lose as we get older, getting caught up in the day to day, the mundane, and how we can forget about our sensuality, what keeps us juicy and vibrant.
Today, the theme is based on the same, and based around building and creating and keeping our journaling and writing practice. And Focusing on ourselves as women with bodies that want to be heard and taken care of, internally and outwardly, emotioinally, physically, spiritually. Sensually.
And those are the ideas, themes, prompts I use in my weekly journaling classes.
And this next session starts tomorrow, Tuesday, on Zoom, so from the comfort of your own private space, your special room, so you can write with us for 1 ½ hours of quiet YOU time, to explore and have fun, and dive in, and release. Let the words from from te Body to the Page.
Your words are MAGIC. Your words are POWERFUL.
And they are super fabulosuly important for you to take time for yourself to listen in to what your heart, soul, and body wants to say!
So today is the last day to register and join us for the next 6 weeks, once a week, to journal, question, write, listen, share, and enjoy the process…
With PROMPTS like this:
Write a short paragraph using these three words:
And we might hit on some sensations:
- The smell of love
- The feel of silk
- The sound of laughter
And then we write longer stories, experiences, feelings, character studies…
And all around the theme of

**No experience necessary, just a desire and willingness to let your spirit flow…get your journals ready…
to
- Uncover your deepest thoughts, feelings, and desires
- Gain clarity on your own body love
- Step into your feminine divinity and own it
- Heal emotional wounds and cultivate self-love
- Enhance your creativity and intuitive guidance
- Have fun with your word magic
~~~~~~~~~~
I’ll share one more piece with you today, as I continue to work on my 5th book ( 2nd book of poetry!)
A piece of poetry, a life-short as I call my poems, to share.
Being born, from the womb of dirt and rock
The freshness in the air, coming alive,
Oh my god, I feel the dew
The juice from the womb
And the bursting open is the rising up,
Taking a stand, as if picketing for the sun
Back not so long ago, the planting seeds of dreams,
My dreams
Uncovering and being connected to the earth
Digging in the soil to unfurl
Like the fern, unrolling,
like the pod popping open,
the shell cracking from the pecking
The desire for making space and
To take up space
To know the importance of what I want
Only me, mine, special it is
As in the growth that is coming
The expansion of that vision
The role playing uniqueness of one, and then
The naming
Oh for so much clarity to come through
The belief in the vision
The pounding of the wanting
You know, when you feel it in your chest
And your heart beating so fast and
You know, finally, that you do know
Wanting that self-sufficiency
To be fed from my own hands
To grow from the garden, within
To the forefront, to be seen and loved and
Ah, so beautiful and delicious
That abundance of living
Water flowing, from a trickle to a waterfall
Producing the drips and the drops and the blast of intention
Attention
ideas
Then showing up and showing face,
no apologies, with the follow through,
Because I can, still
growing stronger, from being fertile,
feeling the power of the conception
To the inception
weeding out the unwanted
Feeling for the flourishing, the nourishing
The nurturing of the desires
uncovering and being connected
To what is calling me, from me
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The feeling and the lightness of the releasing of stuck words, too,, is glorious.
Oh, that flow. With a familiar ease. A craving to express but allowing instead of pushing into it. I can tell you how great it feels to have even just a few words “emerge”, as things are shifting again for me around my entire life. Change is in the air, and this is a time of renewal and rebirth.
Have you felt like that, when you were creating? Your new business? A painting? Writing? Dancing? Cooking? Anything, but with that flow of recognition, of a feel-good thing you were doing, a right thing. Stepping up into your power and your purpose.
Usingi words and writing as a time of regeneration, renewal, inspiration, cleansing, re-emerging!
A Journaling Exploration into your Sensuality!
Register now and I’ll see you tomorrow on Zoom, Tuesday, 3:00 pm PST!
And yes, all are recorded if you miss one…
Thank you for reading my words, for taking that journey with me. For whatever that inspires within you, as you step into your new story.
Many blessings,

Emerging
Sometimes I wonder where the words went
That at one time were on free flow
Did I use them up?
Meandering
On the slow ride through spring
Viewing all that I have become
Wandering from chapter to chapter
Inside and out
Clearing
Cleansing and releasing
Is more about the re-opening
To allow for more of that free-flow
The no holds barred feeling
Of moving into the blossoming, the re-emerging
Or the busting out
Rewriting the script
Dismantling the used-up bits, the rusty pieces
From the body to the page
Emerging
With the fresh eyes of the unfurling fern
Slowing allowing the words to rewrite themselves
From down deep
They are still buried under the dirt
Planting new seeds alongside the seasoned roots
I can feel the new story emerging

Would you like to write something like this? Join us on this 6 week journey!
This is one of my Life Shorts I wrote awhile back! This comes from forming a practice, using prompts to dive in and unload those words from inside!
I feel holy…
I feel whole, I feel holy
Listening in, tuning into my station, turning on my divine self
My divinity
My sacred feminine beauty
With the inner and outer badass, the rebel, the enchantress,
The sensual beauty, the quiet dancer,
The in-your-face-you’ve-got-this leader, the hungry listener,
The poetic guru
Truly taking the time to soften, to zone in, to unfold
Letting go of the self-imposed expectations,
the imprisoned body that must carry on — says who?
The physically imposed limitations that say stop now, fool…
You’ve really done it now, this time…
But not allowing that voice in, only listening to the gremlin,
Instead I’m bringing in the house of my holy, into myself, my beloved
Forever the audacious queen,
Continuing to step up, to leap big
Shedding scales of my skin
Busting up the bricks of that freakin wall
That I built so long ago
To reveal, the big reveal
The glory and the power and the purple mountains majesty
Of my creative juices flowing like a volcano
Ahhh. the vision clearing, burning away the old
And my stories being rewritten, I see the writing on my walls
Inner visions, by me, for me
Oh, that lovely and powerful force, the reconnection
It’s not accidental, this opening, the re-rendering of my exquisite self
