Love letters are healing for the writer, recipient, and reader. May this letter offer healing and celebration of my partner on his 44th year. Dear Robin, I wanted to give you a gift for your birthday, but your preternatural satisfaction with what you already have...
If you would have asked me five years ago for my bone broth recipe, I would have stared back at you blankly. That was a time of high-horse vegetarianism for me. I was studying with a teacher at the time who was militant about not eating meat, so I fell in line. I...

My husband and I once spent a very hot winter together. Not quite like that. Then again, it was exactly like that. I wrote a bit about it here. It was a hot winter because we were living in the tropics. It was a hot winter because we were fighting like cats and dogs...
This month’s theme in The Nest is surrender. So how could I not offer a yoga nidra practice? Yoga nidra is all about surrender, because when we fall into this state of openness we let go. But what do we let go into? The embrace of the divine. For those of you new to...
