When I have to read the news, feel compelled to take some action, I find that going back to my center of breath really grounds me. That’s important for self care. May you have beauty & peace. #meditation #photography Below: cloud forest Costa Rica

Reading the news nowadays, can often be frightening, discouraging & upsetting. It’s ok to take a step back, breathe & embrace the beauty around us. Reset & then go forth with any action that is needed. Have a peaceful day. #peace #photography #meditation Below: seagull at Alcatraz

Posting this again. I’m sure many of us are feeling anxious, hurt, depressed today. It’s ok to feel all of that. Use that energy to try to make a difference, when you are able. Our communities and loved ones need us. Take good care

Made the mistake this AM of picking up phone & scrolling. Not the best way to start my day. So much nicer to take a few moments, breathe, center, focus on positive. Time enough for the other noise that assails us. May you have peace today. #meditation #peace #photography

I, for one, am profoundly grateful for vaccines. Parents w/kids were lined up for blocks to get it. Terrifying disease. Polio was a lurking darkness. Here’s to science!

We all have down moments from time to time. Winter’s hard at times, especially after Nov 5. It’s a call to stop, breathe, reach to our core for that moment of peace. Then we can act if need be. But start from the center. #meditation #photography Big Island below

I looked at the news ( haven’t been) & went into fear. Box breathing helps. Breath in, hold it for a few secs, breathe out, hold a few secs. 5 reps Helps reset our brain. We all need some tips to help us thru.. Have a peaceful eve. #meditation #photography

Good Morning! Great day to be reminded of everything we're grateful for. Take a moment, focus on your heart area & find something that sparks thankfulness. Something that touches you. Kindness that has come your way. The sweet nectar of birdsong. #meditation #photography #gratitude #today

I've been musing about mindfulness & activism. These days are fraught, but it seems like strengthening our mental/spiritual core is needed to be effective. Take care if yourself first. Be peaceful in this day. #photography #mindfulness #peace Below are our local eagles.

It's storming outside here in Portland. Days like these make me fondly think of warmer skies. Can't get stuck in that though. The fierce storm in front of me has its own beauty and mood. My wish for you is that you have peace today, and some warmth in your heart. #photography #meditation #peace

I used to do a practice where I stood still & noticed 10 things of beauty around me. It’s a good mind training exercise. These days being present is a powerful tool. A necessity. #mindfulness #beauty #fall #photography #calm
