 I have just returned from a little journey through the mountains, where I stopped to visit my late father's favorite blue pool beneath a waterfall along the Mckenzie River. It was so lush and alive that I couldn't get as close as usual because there was such an expansive force of water droplets in the air.
 How are you sleeping lately? I took sleep for granted for most of my life and found it easy to fall asleep no matter where I was, even in my 20's while traveling through airports, when I could fall asleep on the floor with folks bustling about around me. I also stayed up late often, taking advantage of the quiet dark hours to unburden myself creatively and savor the feeling of having time for myself. But all of that crashed  Do you feel the thaw happening in our collective nervous system as the springtime energies stir things up? An oriented and resilient nervous system can sense these stirrings and changes as a kind of raw aliveness...
 Existential safety is honestly one of my favorite subjects, and I could nerd out about it forever. Why? Because it's what I learned when I was in the depths of hell and nothing in my life felt stable or safe (For some perspective: I could not even trust my body to fall asleep without having a MAST cell reaction that was on the caliber of going into anaphylactic shock).
