Back in my school essay writing days, I wrote a piece called “People Move Me”. It ended up being something I used to get into some school or program that I may or may not have actually attended, but my mom loved it so much, she showed it around to our large family. One ofRead the Rest…

Join us for five powerful days to reveal and revel in a movement now afoot to restore, renew and rewire how humanity walks this earth, stewards the land, how we care for one another, and all of life itself.

Completion and Creation
Use this guided process to make a powerful ending of your year to set up 2012. Each December, Seven Stones offers a process to the community to complete the year: using the principals and practices of exquisite sufficiency such as telling the truth about what happened and didn’t happen, successes and let-downs, any associations that are called to be celebrated or mourned, and distinguishing actions to be taken. In addition to annually, this process can be used monthly, weekly and even daily!

My Fire Walk
March 29th, 2010 - No Comments
I woke up today and realized that the next part of my personal journey is here. I have arrived, at the hottest part of the fire it is time to step in. I knew I arrived because of the wisdom that was spoken to me by a voice; it was the same voice that sentRead the Rest…
Take Pause: What is enough?
March 24th, 2010 - No Comments
How do we know we are, have and do enough? We start in this moment. We find out feet, our back, our hands, our seat. We locate ourselves in space, tracing out the lines of our skin. We receive what we are, right now. We inhale. We start with the physical being. We exhale. WeRead the Rest…
Failure –a love letter
March 22nd, 2010 - 2 Comments
What have I failed at? Am I a failure? In this moment where have I failed? When I review March where do the failures reside? When I look at this year thus far, what if anything as brought success? When I look at my life where have I actually failed? Did I fail to: breakRead the Rest…
Permission to be Adequate
March 17th, 2010 - 1 Comment
This week, my child’s daycare closed for a day of training. I therefore lost a third of my childcare and my biggest day for writing. In the spirit of sufficiency, the North of my compass, I will be transparent and admit that this week, I am aiming for adequate.
This Sunrise
March 15th, 2010 - No Comments
The sunrise today is bringing me one day closer to spring One day closer to warmth Emergence Growth Birth Light Renewal Yet I must remain here, present to what is—present to this moment What will lingering snow, another cloudy day, a chilly breeze and the waning darkness provide for me? Do I use the excuseRead the Rest…
International Women's Day
March 10th, 2010 - No Comments
Monday was International Women’s Day. It is the 99th year of this global day celebrating the economic, political and social achievements of women past, present and future (go to http://www.internationalwomensday.com/ for more information). This year’s theme is Equal rights, equal opportunities: Progress for all. The inclusivity of this statement is a declaration of sufficiency, of enoughness for all. The reminder that when we lift up the marginalized, the invisible, the oppressed, we all benefit.
Letting Go Of All I Know?
March 8th, 2010 - 1 Comment
How do we leave the current context? Take a step forward into a future of my design? When that future is different from all I have been taught? At Seven Stones we are continually looking at how we craft and run our business. We are creating our partnerships, collaborations, strategies and actions from a stanceRead the Rest…
Sufficiency as Movement
March 3rd, 2010 - 1 Comment
Some time ago I had this great idea to shift consciousness. It would be called the Kindness Campaign and would be delivered via bumper stickers with a corresponding website. You would go to the site and take a pledge of kindness. Not unlike Thich Nhat Hahn’s inspired pledge of nonviolence called the Manifesto 2000 (orRead the Rest…
Declaration, Sufficiency and a Wedding Ring
March 1st, 2010 - 1 Comment
I got married 17 years 2 months and 3 days ago today. If you had been there you would not have seen anything unusual from a typical American wedding: a church, officiants, a white dress, tuxedoes, brides maids followed by a great party if I do say so myself. On that day we also exchangedRead the Rest…
