I encourage you to take inventory of your priorities, take time for yourself, journal or draw. I hope your health and happiness are high on the list! Listening and following your heart are great strategies for healing, well being, and libido.

 

 

One day you finally knew
what you had to do, and began,
though the voices around you
kept shouting
their bad advice-
though the whole house
began to tremble
and you felt the old tug
at your ankles.
"Mend my life!"
each voice cried.
But you didn't stop.
You knew what you had to do,
though the wind pried
with its stiff fingers
at the very foundations,
though their melancholy
was terrible.
It was already late
enough, and a wild night,
and the road full of fallen
branches and stones.
But little by little,
as you left their voices behind,
the stars began to burn
through the sheets of clouds,
and there was a new voice
which you slowly
recognized as your own,
that kept you company
as you strode deeper and deeper
into the world
determined to do
the only thing you could do-
determined to save
the only life you could save.

Walking the  labyrinth, I first had my inspiration for For Women, PA.  The labyrinth is such a wonderful metaphor for the journey women take toward health. I wanted to share it with you. 
The Journey by Mary Oliver

When you come to our practice, I like to take the time to be present  and listen to and discover what your individual goals and values are related to your health.  I then may suggest ideas, solutions, or therapies. Together we design a path that best fits  your needs and worldview. I believe a collaborative model is the most therapeutic. I use many different approaches including, nutritional, lifestyle, body mind, herbal, essential oil, hormonal, physical, medical and surgical therapies to optimize your well being. My areas of expertise are holistic gynecology and conscious wellness.

Word of the year 

In 2022, I chose the word Refuge. Although it has many religious associations. I went with the pure idea of a haven. I felt after the difficult years of Covid,  shelter was called for. I find that oasis inside, in silence and stillness, in the unaltered mind and outside in nature.  I believe wisdom and healing come out of this refuge.

 

In 2020 I was inspired by the Eckhart Tolle quote below.  I could not decide which word resonated the most.  After the pandemic hit,  I  began to notice more space in my schedule, on the road, and time for dwelling in inner space.

 

Spaciousness felt like joy , ease, and lightness all in one word  So that led me to Spaciousness as my word of the year for 2021

In 2019 I was inspired by light.I was hoping to let more light in, enlighten, find more clarity,  and be a light for others . My word for 2019 was Illumination.

Flow was my word for the year for 2018.  I believe in each person's basic goodness and wholeness.  When one senses that wholeness, opens to it, and flows with it, healing become possible.  Going with the flow helps free one from suffering.

Flow arose from from my word of the year for 2017-Align. This beautiful piece of word art was created for me by Joanne Fink at Zenspirations.com. I believe when one aligns oneself with one's soul’s intention and the basic aliveness in the universe,  creativity flows and healing can happen. I hope to make a connection with you to help you promote your own alignment and flow towards wholeness and health
