I facilitated a wonderful Full Moon Dreamboard Workshop with 12 amazing women last week. Such power in these boards!

What incredible fun to have my story of coming to Sedona performed by this wonderful group. It was a great evening of laughter and tears, and much thanks to Shaeri and Gary for taking the parts of Roy and me. Awesome!

A new year and an upcoming new book! I am pleased to have been able to participate in the about-to-be-released Sedona Awakenings, true stories of people being “called” to settle in Sedona, Arizona. Mine is the last chapter in the book and is the tale of how my husband and I first came to Sedona in 2004 for a belated honeymoon and went home with a new house! All of the chapters are fascinating and I can promise you a good read…

A few friends and I enjoyed a lovely Sunday eating deviled eggs and pasta salad and working on our spring dreamboards. I especially love my cowboy and horse  pictures and the one of the blue-footed boobies!

Living in the high desert…

We just saw another excellent film through the Sedona Film Festival Series called The Music Never Stopped. It was adapted from Oliver Sacks’ case study, “The Last Hippie” and is the true story of a young man who, due to traumatic brain injury, is caught up in his memories of 1968. The movie explores the strained relationship between father and son, and the work of a music therapist who uses the man’s tie to the music of that time to enable him to move into the future. The film works on many levels and above all, you’ll walk away with the reminder to appreciate what you have because you never know just how long you’ll have it.

We went to a juried art show opening last night where we were delighted to see that our good friend Debbie Wnuk had won second place in the Professional Division!  It’s such fun to know artists in the area. One of the biggest attractions for me in Sedona, besides the natural beauty, is the incredible richness of the many art galleries and live music programs. This place is truly a creative mecca.

Woke up to snowy vistas this morning! It will all be gone within a day so we’re enjoying the views while we can.

Saw a good one tonight through the Sedona Film Festival. “Cyrus” is a wonderfully-written psychological comedy about a woman caught between her over-possessive son and her new boyfriend. It should open nation-wide in about a week.

Make sure you catch it!
