“Grief is love with nowhere to go.” – Jamie Anderson

Some days are heavier than others.
Be gentle with yourself.
Love does not disappear; it changes shape.

"Do you talk about death in Reiki?"

Sometimes. Sometimes not.
The body speaks first.
Reiki meets people where they are—
with or without words.

The Green Ribbon of Love Movement has begun! Thank you Suzanne B O'Brien founder of Doulagivers Institute for joining us recently in Boise, Idaho to share this beautiful message of Empathy, Connection, Hope and Love with the community and the World! Thank you Candice Adams from Treasure Valley Housecalls, Hospice, & Palliative Care for your support in this Movement!

The Green Ribbon of Love Movement reminds us that healing begins when we choose love over fear and gratitude over grief. Every green ribbon worn is a quiet thank you to those we’ve lost, to the lessons they’ve left, and to the love that still connects us all.💚

Don't forget to put yourself on your wishlist!

Peace of mind isn’t the absence of problems; it’s the presence of inner strength despite them. It’s when your thoughts, emotions, and actions aren’t at war with each other — when you can sit with yourself without anxiety or restlessness.
It’s that quiet sense of ease where you no longer need the world to be perfect to feel okay.

I wish you all peace

The Caregiving Crisis No One is Talking About

More than 63 million Americans care for loved ones—often with little support. Caregiving activist Ai-jen Poo shares what needs to change, and how caregivers can stay resilient.

"These numbers say it all: Caregiving is colossal. But despite being the backbone of our society, "caregivers have never been under as much pressure and uncertainty as they currently are facing," says Ai-jen Poo, a caregiving and labor activist. "And it's compounding."

Remember This: There Is Massive Hope

If you are a caregiver, the first thing to remember is you are not alone. "Sometimes some days it just feels impossible, but just know that there are at least 63 million of us in your same boat,” says Poo. “The power of that is undeniable—and that's something that you can tap into at any time." Social media is also a friend, she adds. Share your story with the hashtag so others in a similar position can find you.

Remember the power and capability within you. “Caregivers know how to build community, even when there's no time and there's no capacity,” says Poo. “The resilience of caregivers is something that I'm thinking about so much and how much we as a country need to learn from caregivers and their ability to tap into agency and build community out of crisis.”
