The office has finally been painted! I really wanted to show you a picture, but I can’t get it uploaded to the blog. Bummer. So…Please come check it out at the Harmony Festival! I will be sharing the booth with Dr. Amy Dilena of Dilena Family Chiropractic. We are so excited and hope to see you there.

And, this particular blog wouldn’t be complete without another plug for Ricky Watts. Ricky connected to the vibe of The Healing Heart and the vision i had for the mobile unit, and then unleashed this masterpiece. Work is so much more fun now. Thanks Ricky! You can check out his work all over the country actually, but for convenience’s sake, you can also go to his website. WWW.RICKYWATTS.COM

THE DAILY TO DO LIST

Kat — Wed, 06 Jan 2010 04:20:54 +0000

Like many people, at different times of my life I have achieved different levels of organization and productivity. Four years ago, a friend and I designed a visual planning tool (V.I.A.) for integrating our core values into our daily lives and schedules. (My friend Elka continued developing this planning system and currently teaches the system in her

Mapping Your Inner Star workshop.

http://elkavera.com/events.html.

Its brilliant and so is Elka- I highly encourage you to peek at her website, which is delicious eye candy and some serious soul sustenance- simultaneously!)

I fell off my own organizational wagon when I began caring for an elderly friend of mine. And after his death and the little side roads that grief inspired me to travel, I never quite made it back into that organized self- until recently. I have made lists, set goals, berated myself for not getting things done, felt overwhelmed, and at times, not cared at all about a lack of progress. And yet my direct experience demonstrates that a life imbued with intention is a life that is rich and meaningful.

A year or so ago I heard about Esther Hicks’ approach to lists. Hicks, along with her husband Jerry, is well known for the books she wrote on The Law of Attraction. When Hicks makes a to do list she picks just a few things that she can get done and the rest she gives to God. I have attempted this also …but without stunning results.

Recently though it occurred to me that I really only have three things to do every day:

eat healthily, exercise, and meditate.

If I do those three things every day then my own to do list is naturally, organically and joyfully conquered.

Take this blog as an example. Getting it going has been occupying my to do list for about 4 or 5 months. Such a static thing, a list. But voila, today it is written and I have conquered Wordpress and posted it! And that is because I have fulfilled my daily requirements.

Maybe your formula is a little different. What are the things that you need to do everyday in order to feel balanced, centered, dynamic, and vital? I encourage you put those things at the very top of your daily TO DO list and see what transpires. And please oh please let me know…

These Days

Kat — Thu, 06 Aug 2009 05:52:54 +0000

These days seem full of struggle and transition. So many of my clients and friends have said that they are feeling the world pressing upon them: the economy, difficulties in interpersonal relationships, and dissatisfaction with the state of the world. I have certainly felt those things too. But I have also felt relaxed, joyful, grounded and calm, even when there was chaos around me. I know that the experience that I have of my life is my choice. There are many things that I cannot control or change but I can always transform the way I relate to my experience. I choose to cultivate fluidity, grace, playfulness and peacefulness. And that sounds good doesn’t it? But how does one achieve and maintain that state?

MEDITATION, MEDITATION, MEDITATION

I really believe it’s the only way. Meditation is good citizenship. These days I find myself offering to sit with clients for ten or fifteen minutes before their treatment. These days I find myself daydreaming about driving all over Petaluma with the mobile office and holding small meditation groups. Try it. Sit for ten minutes in silence or download a meditation from iTunes. See how you feel and let me know. These days we all could use some Peace.
