A garden can teach us much about being zen. The Tao (the Way) achieves everything by doing nothing (Wu wei). It acts through effortless action rather than by forced control. Last year, I moved my clematis to a new spot and…nothing. I thought they died. Today, I find them thriving! In the Tao Te Ching, the Way is balance, presence, and non-action, which is exactly what gardening teaches. As gardeners, we bring “effortless action” to our plots: we act by facilitating (planting, watering, fertilizing), knowing that nature will do as it does. We are merely the quiet observers. Be present.

I’m grateful to be a conduit for spirits and for the work I do to help others reconnect with departed loved-ones they miss. A reading helps with closure and provides a sacred space to feel seen, understood, and supported. By sharing specific details—memories, phrases, inside jokes and messages—validates a loved-one’s presence.

Foraging for wild violets growing in my yard. They are packed with vitamins, reduce inflammation (they contain salicylic acid), support your lymphatic system, and so much more. I’ll make tinctures, teas, and salves from the flowers. They are so pretty when dried to decorate a salad or put on top of food. I don’t poison any parts of my yard. Please don’t pick if you use lawn chemicals!

My third year in my happy office in Sterling. This has definitely been my best office yet. Thanks to everyone who has supported me for well over a decade. I’m honored to serve you. Time flies when you’re having fun!

On a clear night, with stars out, a large flash of light beams over one of the towers at the old jail. “The Old Charleston Jail, built in 1802, is considered one of the most haunted buildings in South Carolina. Visitors have frequently reported unexplained occurrences, including spectral, camera-related light anomalies, particularly during night tours.”

The spirits at the jail made themselves known in a quiet way.

My attention was drawn to take a photo of the church down the street from the old jail. Here, I captured five orbs. Blown up they look like rocks or a pig’s snout. Drones??? No. Drones don’t look like rocks. They are also not uniformly round. Each green rock has a halo around it. Very odd. But, the old jail has some strange activity. We spent days exploring other haunted sights.

Something/someone is materializing on top of one of the towers of the Old City Jail in Charleston, South Carolina (built 1802). It is widely considered one of the most haunted sites in the US. A notable prisoner Denmark Vesey was hung in one of the towers. They say his ghost and many others haunt the place.

So much of Charleston is haunted. The city, like many places in Europe, is built over mass graves.

My phone’s camera starts acting up when spirit is close—it freezes up, turns off, or zooms in and out several times before it will take a photo.

The joys of my garden with volunteer spinach regrowing, having survived winter, ready to pick. I added it to my morning smoothie that I make everyday to get my turmeric and other antioxidants. I have it after my morning Ayurvedic cleansing rituals along with 8 ounces of copper water (it gives you a little charge in the morning).

I cleared 5 gardens this morning and planted Swiss Chard, lettuce, and spinach. Planting with my bare hands in soil! I feel very grounded and centered. 💕

Who journals? What do you write and what do you omit?

The mind can meet the new only when it is not burdened with memory. Think about it. Be present. Be open.
