Family Friends Community,
These Autumn days,
I feel the tug of feathering my nest.
Make ready for frost.
The slow season.
Where the show of colour is premium.
I love this symphony.
I observe myself.
Anxious.
And my angle of repose is depressed.
Earth Science definitions for depression :
1) a landform sunken or depressed below the surrounding area
2) an area of low atmospheric pressure characterized by rain and unstable weather.
Emotional sponge me
absorbs the confusion
the density
the polarization
outside.
I,
as pushing down a button
or stamping down soil for a Winter's rest,
have altered my body's chemistry.
The response; depression.
It is bio-mechanics.
A human absorbing low atmospheric pressure.
Dense with worry.
My gateway remedy?
Humor.
It feathers,
lightens,
bubbles,
reverses the chemistry I sponged up.
Laughter a necessary addiction.
Laugh On!

Making Sense with Scent
Inhale
Shortest Distance to Thrive
Family Friends Community,
Inhaling fully deeply completely.
Exhaling fully deeply completely.
Cuz nothin' is makin' sense.
Been doing a lot of sequestered heavy breathing lately.
Sometimes in meditation.
Mostly to ease my nerves.
First, I thought it was a short test.
No.
Covid - 19 has got me kowtowing to it's mantra.
Change Change Change
I’m stopping and smelling the roses,
flowers,
nature
to make sense.
The Importance of Full Inhalation and Exhalation
There's a physical and chemical reason why stopping and smelling the roses is the shortest distance to thrive.
Scent and colour triggers neuro pathways in our brain that tells us to relax, awaken, digest and love.
Think of scent as a powerful driver that helps our body, mind and spirit run at optimum.
Breathe Easy.
Onwards with Love,
M
Flower Mecca
My quarantined tired self took a drive up to the quintessential coastal town of Point Reyes California.
I was bee lining for Point Reyes Flowers farm owned and grown by Peggy Tilbury Orr and Jim Desser.
I was desperate to inhale everything and that includes their odiferous dog Lucky who earlier in the day rolled around with a deceased seal.
Peggy and Jim have cultivated unusual, deliciously scented and potent colored variety of flowers.
Art full.
Zen full.
Grace full.
Their craft very much needed as We move towards a truce with Nature.
If you're in need of a flower panacea, celebration or special arrangement.
Find your way to a flower Mecca.
Transcendent in all ways floral.
Watch this farmstead space for future plots.
We're cultivating Experiential Day trips for stable family & friend pods who want a pilgrimage for the senses.
