Small Wonders


Open your eyes that you may see
the wonder that around you lies;
it will enrich your every day
and make you glad and kind and wise.

Creating sacred space....

Downtime:
Giving myself the gift of relaxing into my heartsong, my purpose... sinking into its allure via my imagination, my daydreams. Everything lightens, transforms. In that sacred space, I'm discovering, creating, coloring my painting...funneling, flowing magical visions of beauty and possibility.

without the means to attain it."

The Daily Mandala: July 15, 2010

Each day I may find a healing retreat within my own landscape, my own lifework, when I choose to re-inspire ME. I look for ways to creatively fashion a sanctuary of spirit in my own space, between the space of my interactions with the world. Creating these sacred places nurtures my soul. Re-energized, re-ignited with the joy of my heart, its expression flows beautifully outward as a wave of inspiration to those I meet on my journey. --ATB

"Grant me the ability to be alone; may it be my way every day to go outdoors among the trees and grasses, among all the growing things, and there may I be alone, to talk with the one that I belong to."
-- Prayer of Rabbi Nachman of Bratslav.

The Daily Mandala: June 30, 2010

Sweet summer reverie: I rest, relax, renew in the gentle wisps of summer breezes. The dusky fragrance of lavender, lilies, and roses suffuses my heart with peace. I'm at one with my world, walking serenely...summer-hatted and Alice-blue-gowned...beneath silver-white clouds. In the shaded nooks of my healing garden, I imagine butterfly visions and dragonfly dreams. My steps turn toward my dream cottage, around the bend in the woods. And there, I paint all things beautiful. – ATB
