Lush Green

image

May 22, 2016
Nonsenses Immersion coincides today with driving in the wetlands of southwest Louisiana! So much green! The green is dotted and accented with yellow, orange, and red. Blue and purple hover as heavy, gray moisture in the sky above.

I notice that in my search for each color in the landscape that the wholeness of Life becomes evident. If all the colors of wholeness can be found in each landscape, then why not in each of my own moments?

I allow it.
I accept it.
I embrace it.

Where do you find wholeness? Please share your answer here. read more

Adjust

image

May 21, 2016
I realized that my colored pencils are watercolor pencils! Well, not the yellow, actually. That made the blending uneven.

This reminds me of adjusting preferences in life. When something is important, I figure out how to do it within various circumstances. That may require adjusting details, methods, tools, timing. The essence or value of the habit remains, or even expands, as it is incorporated in a new setting.

As I think of examples, I’m coming up with a long list!
☆ Getting whole grains in various living situations
☆ Staying in touch with significant people while hiking
☆ Walking in Nature in various homes
☆ Cooking, washing, etc. on trail and also in different houses and living situations read more

Landscape

image

May 20, 2016
We have one day in Big Bend National Park. Color adorns the mountains and the badlands. What if I paint the Nonsenses colors suggested by the landscape?

The emotional landscape also provides space for dancing as well. I’m uneasy with John’s style of exploring in constant motion. I prefer making fewer stops for a longer, reflective experience. I realize  that I’m playing out an old story of being alone, being separate, needing to ignore my own needs to accommodate his. read more

Consistent

I wake up in a hotel in elPaso, Texas. No, this is not a down and out cowgirl drama. Quite the opposite! This is a spiritual journeywoman’s triumph of focus on priorities of the heart!

This Nonsenses Immersion is now so important to me that I go to the trouble of having my paint, brush, paper, board packed in an accessible place that I can get it out and use it daily, well almost daily. I did not paint yesterday.

And, it has a deeper effect when I use the physical materials than simply imagining the colors. I grant myself that accommodation to my physical being. read more

“You are AMAZING and I’m in awe at what you do– your REAL JOB!
But, I was amazed at you before– when you were home with your boys and teaching me– your other REAL JOB!!”

These emails are from fans who read my newsletter revealing my claim that I have now transformed my Old Story that sharing my skills as nature interpreter and Radical Forgiveness coach are not my real job. They affirm my New Story:
“When I show up as ME, everyone loves me!” read more

Adaptable

Nonsenses Immersion is fun and enlivening for me as the liquid paint colors flow and blend on paper. Traveling in a car, however, motivates me to adapt the exercise with a more portable medium – colored pencils!

Ease

May 16, 2016
Why does it matter to me so much that I feel balance and ease and beauty on the trail? I’m reading the blog of a woman hiking the Pacific Crest Trail. Her feet hurt. It’s hot. She thinks she has to walk further every day. She lost her first toenail and believes that just goes with the territory. Snakes. Poison oak. Poodle Dog Bush.
Her  writing is alluring because I keep wondering how much worse it can get. Cold. Dirt. Fog. And all of it is baneful, and somehow necessary for pushing through. read more

Accept

May 13, 2016

Today, I accept myself being afraid to share HeartSingng Walk because my emails might bother someone. I accept myself being frustrated by an admin’s rule to not allow coaches to recruit clients in her Facebook group.

I am open that there is an opportunity for me to learn and grow.

My Nonsenses Immersion has sharp borders today. Oh! I just got something from that! I had started with a used painting that had a defined shape. When I applied red, I just went right along with that boundary! Just I like do in the group! It then defined the rest of the painting. read more

Growing Vision

May 12, 2016

Nonsenses Immersion becomes my “safe place” as I procrastinate reaching out to my community. I am pondering how to make a transition from pert follower and insignificant participant in someone else’s Facebook group to popular, influential, authentically attractive leader of Regina’s HeartSinging Journeyers.

As Is

I got caught up in editing my developing salespage for HeartSingingWalk Community, squeezing my time for Nonsenses Immersion before walking to work at the Visitor Center. My last five days of this season start today!

I really wanted to do the color exercise because it reminds me of my wholeness and delights me! Even a few minutes with the rainbow of color feels good in my body. This painting was fun! Simple yet beautiful to me.
