Thoughts on beauty……❤️ In youth lives bea Thoughts on beauty……❤️ In youth lives beauty Yet the uncertainty of beauty a general unfamiliarity As to what real beauty is In maturity lives the gift of insight Yet beauty morphs It moves from the surface and lodges somewhere deeper In order to harness these luminous golden threads one must master riding waves Wisdom waves to capture the crest of deep satisfying beauty Beauty without wisdom is window dressing #beauty #instapoet #50isbeautiful #wisdomquotes #instapoetry #thoughtsonbeauty #aginggracefully #wildwomanrising

The stories that have stood the test of time writt The stories that have stood the test of time written about women are mens narratives. Cassandra Speaks is an appropriate and timely book that encourages us to question how and why women have been depicted as threatening. Even if we do not live with constant female subversion it is around us. All the ancient stories make up who we are to some degree subconsciously. When we see the recent uprising in Iran or elsewhere we see the veil of manipulation for what it is. This is a book for women to read to men and have a dialogue. Women should be able to show all their complexities and beautiful colors! We should question what is accepted and what isn’t and continue challenging the need for new chapters! The chapters of this book are a good place to start. #cassandraspeaks #mahsaamini #iranprotests #womenempowerment #womenempoweringwomen #genderequality

Biking in Box Canyon at sunrise. Today’s notice Biking in Box Canyon at sunrise. Today’s notice of road closure due to recent monsoon rains did not deter a few bikers. The abandoned road was a delight. We owned the asphalt. Cycling past mesquite, and brittle bush standing proud after precipitation. Desert plants ready to transition from dormant to buoyant. Smoke tree illuminating a blue grey hue. A chiseled canyon casting light and shadows at just the right angles protecting us from the onslaught of Autumn sun. An amphitheater just for two exposing layer upon layer of sediment and boulders suspended in time from ancient mega floods. This was the moment. This was the backdrop. #biking #boxcanyon #coachellavalley #coachellavalleylife #desertlife #bikingadventures #wellness #desertbeauty #sunrisebikeride #livetothefullest
The Autumn Equinox marks a moment for us to embrac The Autumn Equinox marks a moment for us to embrace change and heighten our perceptions. Now is the moment to see the shifting of light. Now is the moment to breathe crispness in the air. Now is the moment to feel balance between day and night. The more we heighten our perceptions of natures changes the deeper we see subtle nuances. Every time I think I am looking at one thing in nature something else adds to my initial perception to add further delight! Look deeper! #sunflower #nature #autumn #autumnequinox #naturesuprises #lookdeeper #natureholdsthekey #naturedelights
Gemutlichkeit- A term in German language to conve Gemutlichkeit- A term in German language to convey the idea of a state or feeling of warmth, friendliness, cosines, well being, and a sense of belonging. It’s a lot packed into one word and there is no English equivalent to encapsulate what this word conveys. It’s the feeling when you sit with someone for a drink and they have a concerted hope for you to be looked after. True Sincerity and Concern. Enthusiasm for someone’s journey and their arrival. Assisting in any way to lessen one’s load. This is the gist of it. I think I can hold that in my heart. It will be forgotten what we say and do yet what will remain is how we made someone feel. #warmheartedness #gemutlichkeit #germanhospitality #hospitality #austrianculture #germanculture #travelteaches #culturegram
Sebastian Kneipp, a Bavarian priest of the 19th ce Sebastian Kneipp, a Bavarian priest of the 19th century pioneered an approach to wellness that revolved around water. It was the first pillar in his five inseparable Pillars towards health. He believed water treading in cold H2O stimulates circulation and the bodies defenses are strengthened. To this day “Kneippian espressos” jump start the body just as effective as a shot of caffeine. You will find these treading sites at the end of hikes. I found one in the middle of a bike ride in the Austrian Alps that created a jumpstart. Kneipp said nature is the best pharmacy and wellness begins barefoot! I couldn’t agree more. Many times back home I keep a cooler in my car with ice cold water and after a hike my tootsies take a plunge! It’s the best medicine. Don’t forget the cold plunge at your nearest spa! #watertherapy #ispa #spa #wellness #groundingbarefoot #barefootgrounding #nature #coldwatertherapy #sebastiankneipp #watertreading #waterislife #austrianalps #bavarianalps #coldplunge #ispadoyou
Biking the Bavarian and Austrian Alps is a pinnacl Biking the Bavarian and Austrian Alps is a pinnacle experience. It is made possible by community bike paths that stretch the land. These bike paths run past peoples dwellings and span for miles upon miles. The culture of biking and a post beer is ingrained as a passionate pastime. I wonder why the Coachella Valley and other cities in the United Stated are so slow to accomplish biking infrastructure? We are so afraid of a bike path disrupting our property or way of life. In actuality it enhances our experiences and environment. In this land they have figured out how to embrace biking and support an activity that uplifts people and communities. The post beer always hits the spot! Prosit!!! #biking #bikepaths #bikecommunity #austria #bavaria #germany #health #wellness #bikeandbeer #travel #activetravel #bikingtravel #backroads #cvlink #coachellavalley #coachellavalleybikelife

Stairway to heaven in Aschau im Chiemgau Germany. Stairway to heaven in Aschau im Chiemgau Germany. We woke up in this quaint town to the first day of school for children. The tradition for this day is for families to go to church to send positive prayers and wishes for their children’s learning and school advent. Parents and Grandparents then gift their children and grandchildren with an offering of toys and candies and special heartfelt items. These wrapped gifts look like a giant decorated ice cream cone and are kept by many through adulthood. It was a morning observing ritual, and families honoring their children before we jumped on bikes to traverse this captivating land clearly held in pride and dignity. #germany #bavariantradition #travel #germanytravel #aschauimchiemgau #ritual #germanychurch #travelstories
Sometimes life gives us wonderful moments to pause Sometimes life gives us wonderful moments to pause and wait. This one is called an Austrian cow traffic jam causing cyclists with team Toscana a moment to slow down and take in the view at Der Wilde Kaiser, a mountain meaning the wild emperor. The cows are being taken from mountain elevation down to lower fields as fall is here. It’s time to make seasonal changes and look at all things needing adjustment! Just as the cows are moving we must also adjust to fall! #austrianalps #cycling #bikinginaustria #backroads #derwildekaiser #cows #bikingadventures #kitzbühel #bikinglife #fallishere #cowslife

All serious problems we face today are at their co All serious problems we face today are at their core connected to food. “We Are What We Eat” is a book making the case that poverty, disease, agriculture decay, climate and depression are connected to the food we eat & the system providing it. We ingest food yet we also ingest values associated with our food & before we know it they become our values. I read this book on a 7-hour drive home from hugging my daughter and wishing her all the best life has to offer at UC Davis. During my time getting her settled I visited a beautifully abundant and conscious YOLO farmers market, and CO-OP Market wishing I returned to my home with the same infrastructure. I know my daughter is in a beautiful place to settle. Author Alice Waters says beauty is the language of care. Care will be afforded to my daughter through healthy food choices at Davis! How about the rest of our world and communities? On the drive home our fast food nation was on full display at every freeway off-ramp. Fast food wether it’s an In & Out or on the go no thought eating that is non fresh teaches fast food values. These are not values I want to live by! We can make changes in the right direction. This book is surely one step towards digesting a profound message!!!!!!! #fastfoodnation #sloweating #slowfoods #alicewaters #wearewhatweeat #slowfoodsinternational #wearewhatweeat #healthyfood #farmersmarket #yolofarmersmarkets #davisfoodcoop #eatconciously #wellness #ucdavis #lovewhatyoueat

Our consumer culture programs us to buy gifts at h Our consumer culture programs us to buy gifts at holidays and collect store bought items. Making a gift is my new norm. Knowing when it’s made that much of it is thoughtfully collected from the earth holds tremendous significance. It is my beloved’s birthday and I put all my love into a gift where every adornment created a piece of art. The result is a unique heartfelt artifact. We can all make a commitment now for the holidays and special occasions to shift from store bought to handmade. Pick one gift for one person and give it a try. Collect small treasures and think outside the box. Break apart our consumer constraints and feed your soul with creativity and gift giving that matters. #makesomething #earthart #driftwoodart #homemadegifts #coachellavalley #bohogifts #beadedart #creativity #artmatters #giftsfromtheheart #giftsfromthesea #giftsfromtheearth
What do you hold reverence for? What if holding sp What do you hold reverence for? What if holding space for nature was a widespread commonplace act? What if a Sunday ritual for Soul Showering was to find the wilderness in us and around us and hear its note. Wilderness allows us the opportunity to empty ourselves as much as possible of the density of today’s noisy distractions that numb the higher resonance. When we tap in we discover the timeless in time and hear the lost notes of a cosmic symphony. #carolynmarykleefeld #nature #earthaltar #wellness #lovemothernature #pachamama #postranchinn #ritual #revernce #wonderofwilderness #gratitude
Throughout time spas were taken very seriously. Th Throughout time spas were taken very seriously. They were not an indulgence; yet a necessity. It is called “the cure” to visit a spa for therapy. Taking the waters is a healing act. Anywhere you go find curiosity in hot springs, baths and spas. These magnificent architectural sanitariums and springs from the earth allow our weary bodies time to recharge. This is an alluring spa in Mallorca at the Cap Rocat housed in a former fortress. Wherever you go, find water. #caprocat #caprocathotel #mallorca #ispa #spaday #waterheals #watertherapy #spaarchitecture #hotsprings #waterwellness #wellness #spa
Time in a garden can transport us away from the co Time in a garden can transport us away from the concrete jungle encroaching all around us. Driving to Santa Barbara to visit Lotus Land I noticed more warehouses, bumper to bumper freeways and suburban sprawl than ever as part of my journey. Submersion into natures embrace was the panacea for my edgy commute through cityscape. Light, texture, color, symbolism, and the expression of the almighty was divine inspiration! It was the nectar of life I needed! #nectaroflife #gardens #lotusland #mothernature #stepintonature #natureremedy #lovetheearth #santabarbara #suburbansprawl
