I had a Reiki session Thursday, one of the things she saw was me “riding a bike – putting my hands out feeling free, by the sea saving starfish one at a time by throwing them back in. As you help and heal people, you are helped too.”

She also said, “speaking up is a way to take back your power.”

This piece has been on my studio table for quite a while. I really didn’t know where it was going. I added the starfish and am now happy with it.

Where am I going? What am I seeing. I need to be more aware.

I have been watching these peonies during my walks through my neighborhood. Daily they change. From tight waxy buds to full blow blooms their beauty emerges. That’s how I think of harmony and being in the steam of goodness. Beauty emerges.

I have a new heartbeat in my home. I need to listen carefully especially during this transition.This is Jo. @hellocavachonjo.

I have been using a journal and habit tracker for 10 months. I am amazed at how important these habits have become to me. I can choose to change. I can make the effort to mold my life in a different direction. My life has changed for the better.

This is a cover of a sketch book. I am terrible at practicing. I dive right in and make or I’m paralyzed with fear of making a wrong move. I need to move “practice” as an intention to the top of the list!!

When helping others or just being a positive part of the universe I need to remember – I plant the seeds but I don’t get to control the outcome. I’m going to explore “seeds” more in my art this summer. I’m keeping the thought of “seeds” close.
