- [Breath Work + Herbs: Resources for Self Care](https://earthbody.net/2023/06/28/breath-work-herbs-resources-for-self-care/) - There's a Buddhist Slogan that says, if you can practice while distracted, you are well trained. It points to why we do the yoga or the breath work or the meditation. So that in times of despair we can return to a place of peace, a center within. Self care is always an ongoing relationship. And much of the work is figuring out what you need when. I wanted to share a few self resources that may be helpful during this time of transition.
- [Tonglen](https://earthbody.net/2023/06/28/tonglen/) - Tonglen is a Tibetan word that means sending and taking. This practice is about working directly with our habit to avoid suffering and seek pleasure. It’s a powerful tool to embrace our life experiences with more openness, compassion, inclusiveness, and understanding, rather than with denial, aversion, and resistance. When we encounter fear, pain, hurt, anger, jealousy, loneliness, or suffering, be it ourselves or others, we breathe in with the desire to completely embrace this experience ~ to feel it, accept it, and own it, free of any resistance.

- [When We Meet The Breaking Point](https://earthbody.net/2023/06/09/when-we-meet-the-breaking-point/) - I joined a co-working space recently to help change up my routine. I was curious about the folks I shared space with. What consumed their time on laptops and in meetings? There’s the creative director for a startup, the marketing director for a startup, and the three or four startups down the hall. I think to myself: every startup began when people came together and said, that’s brilliant. And isn’t that the magic of a relationship? Let's make something from nothing.

- [Architecture of an Emotion](https://earthbody.net/2023/06/28/architecture-of-an-emotion/) - What if you could place an emotion under a microscope and see it? I imagine if the architecture of a feeling could be revealed—the color, landscape, its design—we would choose our emotions with at least the same care we do our playlist. Long gone would be the days of circuitous thinking and mind-numbing obsessions. We would check ourselves before we wreck ourselves.
- [Sitting for the Artist](https://earthbody.net/2014/08/20/sitting-for-the-artist/) - Sitting for the Artist Thursday, 21st August 2014 Pencil sharpened,His eyes dart to and fro and fro and froNot for frozen yogurt. Not today.He is drawing me. Imagine that.Have you ever watched an artist at work? It’s captivating.Quick and detached, yet fully engaged, he sketches. Fast lines. Broad strokes. Erase, erase. Brush, blow. Look, then look again.
- [Denmo’s Kitchen: Pumpkin Teff Pie (Vegan + Gluten Free + Sugar Free)](https://earthbody.net/2014/12/23/denmos-kitchen-pumpkin-teff-pie-vegan-gluten-free-sugar-free/) - Denmo’s Kitchen: Pumpkin Teff Pie (Vegan + Gluten Free + Sugar Free) I told Wesley I wanted to figure out if I could make pumpkin pie with a teff crust. His face screwed up and he immediately went into whiplash. Teff, my friends, is a wonderful grain that doesn’t get all the stardom of quinoa, but it’s just as delicious and nutritious.
- [Negative Nancy](https://earthbody.net/2016/01/15/negative-nancy/) - What spreads faster than a virus, is just as deadly and will make you totally sick and defeated? Negativity. Watch out because YOU just might catch the dreaded disease without even knowing it and while its festering deep within you instead of staying home trying desperately not to contaminate the rest of the world with the plague, you ride public transport, go to work, meet up for happy hour and spread the illness to everyone you meet until you've become Negative Nancy with an entourage of Debbie Downers and Pessimistic Pete's. And now you've got a group of very sick people with grey faces and frumpy clothing all saying, but morale is LOW. And nothing is working. And everything is just bad bad bad.
- [The Moms Project An Interview with Denmo](https://earthbody.net/2014/08/20/the-moms-project-an-interview-with-denmo/) - "The Moms Project An Interview with Denmo" href="http://www.earthbody.net/how-to-heal/707-the-moms-project-an-interview-with-denmo">The Moms Project ~ An Interview with Denmo Thursday, 21st August 2014 A few weeks ago, The Mom's Project reached out to interview Denmo and share her story and insights on health, beauty, wellness, and business, and the feminine space. Check out the interview here!
- [A Living Culture](https://earthbody.net/2014/09/18/a-living-culture/) - The man next to me at the lunch counter gloats about his trip to Bali, including a full day for the ruins, another day for the temples, and a private cooking class with the locals, which he promises he’ll do from now on wherever his passport takes him. But that was nothing compared to Bangkok.
- [From Denmo's Kitchen: Turmeric Ginger Smoothie](https://earthbody.net/2014/11/26/from-denmos-kitchen-turmeric-ginger-smoothie/) - From Denmo's Kitchen: Turmeric Ginger Smoothie Wednesday, 26th November 2014 I woke up dreaming of turmeric and her radiance this rainy morning. So I came up with a way to fold her into my morning smoothie and I'll be damned, I think she LOVED it. Turmeric has been a long time friend and I'm stoked that I found a new way to integrate her in my day.
- [I’m Officially Married!](https://earthbody.net/2014/11/26/im-officially-married/) - I’m Officially Married! Wednesday, 26th November 2014 Three weeks ago I married my beloved. Family and friends gathered for a day of magic. Although no goats were harmed, there was an official sacrifice: Our community of loves gave their time and energy, their cars and cash, their skill, creativity, and talent near and far to celebrate our union.
- [Rite of Passage](https://earthbody.net/2012/08/28/rite-of-passage/) - Rite of PassageRite of Passage[/caption] Tuesday, 28th August 2012“I don't believe people are looking for the meaning of life as much as they are looking for the experience of being alive.” ~ Joseph Campbell
- [Be The Peace You Seek](https://earthbody.net/2014/12/11/be-the-peace-you-seek/) - Be The Peace You SeekBe The Peace You Seek[/caption] Thursday, 11th December 2014This should come as no surprise. We’ve all been brainwashed. We’re living in a world that tells us the best things come to those who wait, that hard work will pay off someday, and that if you really want it, get it at whatever cost.
- [Denmo’s Kitchen: Vegan Cashew Nog](https://earthbody.net/2014/12/11/denmos-kitchen-vegan-cashew-nog/) - Denmo’s Kitchen: Vegan Cashew Nog Thursday, 11th December 2014 Dairy and I had a talk and decided to break up for a little while. After the honeymoon, I wanted to cut out a few things and reset my internal system – no diary, no wheat, no sugar, or anything processed.
- [Denmo’s Kitchen: Amaranth Porridge (Gluten Free)](https://earthbody.net/2014/12/18/denmos-kitchen-amaranth-porridge-gluten-free/) - Denmo’s Kitchen: Amaranth Porridge (Gluten Free) Thursday, 18th December 2014 Grains aren’t typically the breakfast I go to first in the morning, but this hot cereal during wintertime is the exception.
- [Cultivating Abundance: A Ritual for the New Year](https://earthbody.net/2015/01/08/cultivating-abundance-a-ritual-for-the-new-year/) - Cultivating Abundance: A Ritual for the New Year Thursday, 8th January 2015 This is a ritual for abundance, clarity, and awakening relationships of support. Create an intention during your preparation for this practice and see how things unfold before, during, and after the ritual.
- [Denmo’s Kitchen: Green Smoothie ~ Peaceful Warrior](https://earthbody.net/2015/01/08/denmos-kitchen-green-smoothie-peaceful-warrior/) - Denmo’s Kitchen: Green Smoothie ~ Peaceful Warrior Thursday, 8th January 2015 Morning smoothies make me happy. I’ve been eating a more simplified diet without many of the common allergens and loving these new morning smoothie recipes. Food isn't a crutch these days and I'm way more conscious of eating for my life force and not just my taste buds.
- [Gifts of Love](https://earthbody.net/2015/01/28/gifts-of-love/) - Valentine's Day ~ Gifts of Love Surprise the one you love with a gift from Earthbody!
- [Manifesto](https://earthbody.net/2015/01/29/manifesto/) - Manifesto Thursday, 29th January 2015 I have come to believe that the secret to life is not so secret. It seems that the things we were told matter mostly don’t, and we actually have more say about our own lives then we thought.
- [Denmo’s Kitchen: Maka Delicata Bowl](https://earthbody.net/2015/01/29/denmos-kitchen-maka-delicata-bowl/) - Denmo’s Kitchen: Maka Delicata Bowl Thursday, 29th January 2015 I’ve fallen in love with delicata squash! Partially because of its yumminess. Partly because it requires no peeling. Delicata has a delicious nutty taste that’s easy to make and is a wonderful addition to any meal. This healthy, warm maka bowl was inspired by the recent cold days and my love for salads and mesa plates. Perfect as a hearty lunch or a well balanced dinner, this one is sexy, delicious, and worth the extra time to prepare.
- [Cultivating Sacred Outlook](https://earthbody.net/2015/09/13/cultivating-sacred-outlook/) - Cultivating Sacred Outlook Spirituality doesn't live in books, in far off exotic places, mantra, scriptures, or downward dog. Spirit is a sensual exchange. If you cannot unite thought, speech, and action, you will always be at war. What does it mean to be spiritual? It means you say yes to being broken and whole, lost and found all at once. You dare to be pierced by life itself. It’s about cultivating sacred outlook.
- [De-Stress: The Energy to Relax](https://earthbody.net/2015/12/18/de-stress-the-energy-to-relax/) - De-Stress: The Energy to Relax “A year from now you may wish you would have started today.” ~ Karen LambMy aunt went in for her yearly eye exam and the doctor said, “Well, it looks like you have a little pressure behind your eyes. Do you have high blood pressure?” She does. “How are your stress levels?” High and regular.
- [The Ultimate Gift: Forgiveness](https://earthbody.net/2015/12/21/the-ultimate-gift-forgiveness/) - The Ultimate Gift: Forgiveness “Forgiveness does not mean that we suppress anger; forgiveness means that we have asked for a miracle: the ability to see through mistakes that someone has made to the truth that lies in all of our hearts.
- [The Great Spring Purge](https://earthbody.net/2016/02/23/the-great-spring-purge/) - Spring arrived early. I don’t remember much hoopla about Groundhog Phil and his shadow, but I could tell by the daffodils that had sprouted in my garden and the songbird’s tune at the kitchen window. Studying Ayurveda offered me many things in personal health and healing but the one I least expected was that it awakened a living discourse with nature. I now view the seasons in a whole new light. Beyond just a transition in weather, these original markers of time carry with them the teachings of birth, life, death, and the essence of happiness itself, if you happen to be looking for it.
- [Dear Mom](https://earthbody.net/2016/05/04/dear-mom-2/) - You asked me to list ten things I loved about my childhood. I didn't forget. I was just touched by the question for many reasons none of which happened to be the answer to the question. Motherhood (so I hear) is a challenge in addition to being awesome and fulfilling and all that jazz. But I hear that it's also very very hard, kind of like elective surgery but without morphine. You didn't HAVE to do it. Decades of thankless work and sleepless nights in the hope that your kid stays out of trouble, makes good work and doesn't blame you for every damn thing that goes wrong. As we know, sometimes things happen that we don't expect. This is called LIFE.
- [Six Things I Learned On Retreat](https://earthbody.net/2016/07/06/six-things-i-learned-on-retreat/) - “The capacity to be alone is the capacity to love. It may look paradoxical to you, but it is not. It is existential truth: only those people who are capable of being alone are capable of love, of sharing, of going into the deepest core of the other person – without possessing the other, without becoming dependent on the other, without reducing the other to a thing, and without becoming addicted to the other. They allow the other absolute freedom, because they know that if the other leaves, they will be as happy as they are now. Their happiness cannot be taken by the other, because it is not given by the other.” ~ OSHO, Being In Love
- [Your Skin Is An Ecosystem](https://earthbody.net/2017/04/04/your-skin-is-an-ecosystem/) - We typically think of skin only as it relates to beauty — but it's actually important to overall health. Did you know that a single square centimeter of skin hosts approximately 1 million microbes with an estimate of over a 100 distinct species? These microbes include bacteria, yeasts, fungi, viruses, protozoa and even mites.
- [Turning Poison Into Medicine](https://earthbody.net/2016/07/12/turning-poison-into-medicine/) - “Compassion is based on some kind of “soft spot” in us. It is as if we had a pimple on our body that was very sore – so sore that we do not want to rub it or scratch it. The sore spot on our body is an analogy for compassion. Why? Because even in the midst of immense aggression, insensitivity to our life, or laziness, we always have a soft spot, some point we can cultivate – or at least not bruise. Every human has that basic sore spot, including animals. Whether we are crazy, dull, aggressive, ego-tripping, whatever we might be there is still that sore spot taking place in us…We are not covered completely with a suit of armor all the time. We have a sore spot somewhere, some open wound somewhere. Such a relief! Thank earth!” ~ Chogyam Trungpa Rinpoche
- [Are You Hiding?](https://earthbody.net/2016/07/24/how-we-hide/) - Your own Self-Realization is the greatest service you can render the world.” ~ Ramana MaharshiWhatever. It doesn’t matter. I don’t really care. Sure. I guess so. You pick. That’s fine. We’ve all been passive at some point. What appears as easy-go-lucky can often be a cover to divert attention or connection with the person you’re engaging. It shows up in small ways (what do you want for dinner?) and can grow in big ways (what do you want in life?) without every recognizing the underlying issue.
- [Marriage: Nobody Tells You Anything](https://earthbody.net/2016/08/01/marriage-nobody-tells-you-anything/) - I'm excited to share that for the next few weeks, I’ll be devoting a series of articles on the theme of marriage, love, and relationship. What makes us commit? How can we be in a long-term relationship? Is there a secret to love? It’s been just over two years since we exchanged our vows in front of loved ones outside on a Sunday afternoon in Marin County. Marriage, as I’ve learned, is a place of never-ending discovery of self, of other, and of union. It’s also a charnel ground—a place of daily death and rebirth. And that’s if you’re lucky. There’s something essential to relationship as a vehicle for transformation. Some couples are inspired by change; others may see change as conflict. But make no mistake...deep relationships offer an opportunity to awaken innate wisdom. In our most celebrated bonds, if we’re really present, change occurs. This is a very good thing.
- [The Wisdom of Island Time](https://earthbody.net/2016/08/01/the-wisdom-of-island-time/) - sland Time: a vacuum of time created by the presence of the ocean. A care-free laid back aura. A time away well spent that refreshes and revives.Even if you’re not on an island right now, here are a few tips to create Island Time anywhere.1) Leave your phone at home. You may find that you’re more present when your face isn’t in a screen.
- [Myth #3 Marriage Means We'll Work It Out Together](https://earthbody.net/2016/08/22/myth-3-marriage-means-we-ll-work-it-out-together/) - No you won’t. Not always. Some days you’ll work it out together. Like when you’re well rested and just ate a good meal and the weather is perfect and you have the day off and time is but a number. But other days you can't.
- [Myth #1 Marriage Is Forever](https://earthbody.net/2016/08/09/myth-1-marriage-is-forever/) - Last week, I started the first article of a series called Marriage: Nobody Tells You Anything. For myself, marriage has become a central lens to life and I’m still amazed at how little I knew going in. This series of newsletters will explore the strange beliefs, surprising truths, and embarrassing strokes in marriage and love from my own experience and yours. I asked for your input. I wanted to know what it was like for you. And letters came in…
- [Myth #2 Marriage Means I Will Have Security](https://earthbody.net/2016/08/19/myth-2-marriage-means-i-will-have-security/) - Sign up here to get next week's newsletter. Before we can discover what marriage is, we need to air our dirty laundry and come clean. Hence, this series of myths exploring some old beliefs about marriage. Maybe you’ve never had a relationship last for more than nine months. Maybe your parents divorced and you didn’t have any role models. Maybe you’ve just read some garbage about what it's supposed to be like and unbeknownst to you, you’ve set yourself up to fall on your face. But don’t fret. We’ll do it together. Let’s purge the pantry and clean house. Oh, and this is by no means exhaustive. Please feel free to add your own at the end. It’s fun. It’s liberating. It’s part of what will set you free to marry on your own damn terms.
- [Myth #4 Marriage Means I Will Lose My Independence](https://earthbody.net/2016/09/02/myth-4-marriage-means-i-will-lose-my-independence/) - Actually, this one is true. To some extent. Once married you are expected to let your beloved know a few basics. Like, for instance, if you’re going to be late, you need to call, or if you need to head out of town for a few days, you need to plan, or if you accidentally made out with someone at a party (and that’s not how you two roll), it might be a good idea to have a chat. You don’t get to do whatever the hell you want whenever the hell you want. So yeah, you lose some independence, but only a certain kind—the kind of independence where you’re let off the hook and released from accountability. That, my friend, is gone. But independence withinmarriage is not only possible, but absolutely necessary to the well being of the newly established us.
- [In Memory of Pasara](https://earthbody.net/2016/10/18/in-memory-of-pasara/) - It’s been one week since Pasara’s death and I’m still grieving. She was an incredible human and talented esthetician who graced us with her presence at Earthbody. As a way to move through all the feelings that have come up, I wanted to share some thoughts on how she has touched my life.I met Pasara at a conference I was speaking at in San Jose. In my talk, I spoke about the role of the healer and choosing work you love, about how you could be stuck in a restaurant job for years and suddenly wake up to realize that this isn’t the life you want, and how to recognize the wake up call of your own life.
- [6 Ways To Work With Post Election Stress](https://earthbody.net/2016/11/15/6-ways-to-work-with-post-election-stress/) - If you’ve been feeling waves of anxiety, fear, stress, or depression because of the political climate today, you are not alone. We may be experiencing collective trauma, defined as a shared experience of anxiety in response to sudden or ongoing events that threaten our basic sense of belonging in society. So what now? Amidst so much uncertainty, how we will move forward? What can I do? I mean, is this really happening?
- [Mother's Day Gift Guide](https://earthbody.net/2017/05/10/mother-s-day-gift-guide/) - Mom was right about everything (well, almost everything.) Mother’s Day is on May 12th and a chance to celebrate the superwoman in your life. We’ve put together a list of our favorite spa gifts for mom to honor, nourish and love her totally.
- [Perfect Storm](https://earthbody.net/2017/01/10/perfect-storm/) - The storm hit but there was no thunder. News reports said it was the biggest downfall of the decade. The way the media talked about it made me think the rain was biblical and the floods to come were groundwork for some divine message. That’s how I read it, at least. I was sure Moses would descend from Mount Tamalpais with a tablet in either hand and have amended the commandments. Not that they were out dated. I mean they ARE but they’re solid instructions on decency that require zero religious zeal to devote to entirely. Thou shalt not kill. Thou shalt not lie.
- [On Getting Lost](https://earthbody.net/2017/07/03/on-getting-lost/) - We arrived at Wilbur Hot Springs two hours later than planned. Well, three actually, if you count the postponed departure. But seeing that it was just the two of us and we were looking forward to a leisurely drive up north, the freedom to leave at will overrode the aspiration for timeliness.
- [The Agony + Ecstasy Of Acne](https://earthbody.net/2017/09/13/the-agony-ecstasy-of-acne/) - When I think about acne, I flash back to my teenage years. I remember being so relieved when I finally entered my 20s. I had always associated acne with puberty until I broke out as an adult the morning just before a big photo shoot (because my body also has a sense of humor). Surely this was not the same kind of adolescent acne that surfaced in high school. So why was this happening now? It turns out there are many reasons beyond hormones that influence our skin.
- [The Wisdom of Breaking Out](https://earthbody.net/2017/09/21/the-wisdom-of-breaking-out/) - As the largest organ of the body, the skin’s primary function (along with the brilliant ability to protect, absorb and regulate temperature) is to detox and filter. Skin is ultimately a reflection of one’s overall health and state of wellbeing.
- [The Power to Self Identify](https://earthbody.net/2016/12/05/the-power-to-self-identify/) - “What we are is made up of what we have been; and what we have been also shapes the future, without definitely giving line and substance to every thought and action. The present is a movement of the past to the future.” J. Krishnamurti
- [Cannabis Rituals](https://earthbody.net/2017/12/10/cannabisrituals/) - Our new Cannabis-Infused Spa Rituals are crafted to enhance the therapeutic benefits of massage. These treatments feature herb infused oils blended with Cannabinoids (CBD) to help relieve pain, inflammation and tension.
- [Big Love: The Resilience of the Heart](https://earthbody.net/2023/06/09/everything-you-need-to-know-about-body-wraps/) - I remember my first real heartbreak (I say real because earlier heartbreaks were the result of a kind of adolescent fantasy, intricate relationships I had conjured with people I didn’t know that played a part in our ‘life’ together without any actual participation.) I was in my twenties and engaged. After the families met and the ring purchased and the dress bought and the location rented, I had the realization I wasn’t ready. It was devastating and confusing...
- [The Eyes Have It: Face Mapping Part 3](https://earthbody.net/2017/10/10/the-eyes-have-it-face-mapping-part-3/) - Inspiration comes in many forms -- even in the form of breaking out. Breaking out can be the perfect invitation to deepen your personal practice. Imagine if you see your freshly formed zit and are able to recognize your kidneys are depleted.
- [Dying Not Dead](https://earthbody.net/2017/10/24/dying-not-dead/) - We have a small collection of potted orchids in our home. These same plants have lived with us for nearly a decade, give or take. But no one’s been counting. If I’m honest, I must admit that I think of our orchids exactly twice a year.
- [Alchemy of Being: A Women's Circle](https://earthbody.net/2017/11/05/alchemy-of-being-a-women-s-circle/) - What will you do with your one precious life? Alchemy of Being is an intimate gathering for women designed to clarify obstacle, awaken personal truth and release what no longer serves.
- [Healing After An Accident](https://earthbody.net/2017/11/10/healing-after-an-accident/) - I’ve walked away from four car accidents, two bicycle accidents, a gymnastics incident that tore my ACL, multiple broken bones, ankle sprains, dog bites, falls, cuts, and gashes. I thought everyone experienced injury as much as I did.
- [The Art of Relaxation](https://earthbody.net/2017/11/30/the-art-of-relaxation/) - “My aunt went in for her yearly eye exam and the doctor said, “Well, it looks like you have a little pressure behind your eyes. Do you have high blood pressure?” She does. “How are your stress levels?” High and regular.
- [Wild Omar Season](https://earthbody.net/2017/12/05/wild-omar-season/) - The end of the year has always held a special place in my heart. And by special, I mean overwhelming.
- [The Confidence of Confusion](https://earthbody.net/2017/12/09/the-confidence-of-confusion/) - When we open our mind, we can gain a new perspective. Change becomes possible yet choice can still be confusing. Letting go of old habits, habits that keep us small, can leave us wanting to fill that void immediately with something (or someone) else.
- [Spring Ritual](https://earthbody.net/2017/12/10/springritual/) - NEW! Energize the soul with Spring Ritual, designed to stimulate chi, boost emotional well-being and inspire a gentle detox for mind and body. This 90-minute hot stone massage opens up the lower and upper chakras to restore balance...
- [Random Acts of Joy](https://earthbody.net/2017/12/19/random-acts-of-joy/) - During the holidays, it’s easy to overindulge in the wrong things. This is why some of us have ulcers and bad skin and our knees hurt. Because we try so hard to enjoy ourselves and be happy. But this logic is screwy.
- [Walk On The Mindful Side: Create A Moving Meditation](https://earthbody.net/2014/06/26/walk-on-the-mindful-side-create-a-moving-meditation/) - Walk On The Mindful Side: Create A Moving Meditation Thursday, 26th June 2014 It is true that mindfulness walks look like ordinary walks. The difference is the attention to intention.
- [Can I Have a French Fry?](https://earthbody.net/2014/07/11/can-i-have-a-french-fry/) - Friday, 11th July 2014No. I mean, yes, of course. Totally. (French fry eating commences) Okay, that was enough. No. I mean, yes, of course. Totally. (French fry eating commences.) Okay, that’s enough. You’ve basically eaten them all. Great. Now I’m starving. We’re ridiculous. If we could tune into the soundtrack playing within our minds, I don’t think it would be so pretty. Whatever your French fry is ~ love, work, food, drugs, stealing, lying, cheating ~ it’s all the same. It’s about the impulse to control our environment.

My electronic gadget goes everywhere I do and carries my grocery list, a library of books, all of my CDs and photo albums, my work files, as well as calls, texts, and reads me my daily horoscope. The convenience is numbing. Why would we ever return to the days when a book was a book and not also a flashlight?
