Everday Mystic

Taking a hot shower, the miracle of modern day plumbing
Coming home, the porch light is already on
The back yard is my temple, my sacred space
I am the priestess of pruning, invoking hummingbirds
Bees and ravens, a choir of leaves whispering
Dappled sunlight stains the grass
The clerestory of my personal cathedral
My vision of heaven on earth is here
I examine roots and bulbs, rose hips and passion vine
Inviting my teachers, cats, beetles, spiders and snakes
To teach me their ways of quiet contentment
I kneel in the dirt, grit under my praying hands
Pulling out my negative thoughts, planting seeds of change
Finding wisdom in watering, irrigating my soul
The deep peace of sweeping the deck yet again
Paying attention to the dusky hues, rising moon
I am planting my future now by enjoying the present moment
Breathing in the jasmine, I am not alone but all one
Here with my self, grateful for being the creatrix
Open to the mysteries as the night unfurls
Moving back inside to simply make soup
Supping on a blessed life, I break my own bread.

Blessed be.

Saturday at the Silent Retreat

As I sat down to breakfast
I noticed Love walk in the door
And put a coffee cup
Across from me

I heard Love buttering a bagel
- Love likes it with jam
Wondering how it would be
With Love across from me

I heard Love gulp down coffee
And slurp on yogurt
I wondered if that’s how Love
Would sound between my thighs

I kept my eyes downcast
Knowing I’d be blinded in the light
But I kept Love in my peripheral vision
I kept Love in my sight.

Notes to Amber

My sweetest girl
Remember to stay sweet
and gentle and kind
and how much the animals trust you

Remember to sing aloud
Not just in the show
Play music while doing chores

Keep on wearing
mismatched socks
Sparkly earrings
And warm jackets

Buy year round boardwalk passes
Go to the skating rink
Put 10% into savings
And buy ice cream
Everyday

Read out loud to children
Read softly to your self
feel safe at night
With the blanket on your head
And the cat curled up
At your feet

Remember that fairies are real
They’re just not what you think
And that wishes grow from roses
Turning pebbles into crystals
At the blink of an eye

Remember I’m here for you
I’ll always listen to you
I’ll always love you
I always wanted you
You are more than enough
You are perfect to me

My sweet Amber Rose
I’m always proud of you
I’m always glad you chose me
To be your parent

There’s times we weren’t friends
When you didn’t like what i said
When you didn’t like me
But I hope you know
I always held your best interests at heart
I tried to be the best teacher
The best guide
The best advocate I could be
I tried my best
To be your mother

I hope you remember
My crazy songs and silly jokes
Driving to school
Listening to the radio together

I hope you remember
I was always willing to listen
And willing to change my mind
Willing to look at myself
willing to be kind

My Sweet Amber
In my notes to you
All i really want to say
Is how much I love you
        -Mom

Notes from My Inner Girl

Paint your toenails
Dye your hair
Wear glitter more often

    Put stickers on everything
    Write in your dairy
    Keep secrets

Flirt more often
Be sincere
Give out compliments freely

    Talk to cats
    Take more walks
    And nap more

Play with your toys
Put them away
Throw away what’s broken

    Eat anything you want
    Swing on swings
    Balance on the railroad tracks

Believe in fairies
Believe in magic
Believe in yourself

Crayons are our friend
So is modgepodge
Never throw away art supplies

    Be generous
    Be gracious
    You are a queen ballerina

Love your friends
Your friends love you
Love yourself.

"We do not grow absolutely, chronologically. We grow sometimes in one dimension, and not in another; unevenly. We grow partially. We are relative. We are mature in one realm, childish in another. The past, present, and future mingle and pull us backward, forward, or fix us in the present. We are made up of layers, cells, constellations."-Anais Nin

Happy Lammas - The Time of the Unexpected Gift

Happy Lammas - 

The Time of the Unexpected Gift.

Traditionally a time of feeling blessed if a second set of lambs were born, in modern times it is associated with spreading joy by sharing the abundance. It's also a time to check in with your own self care before getting caught up in the whirlwind of Fall activities, from starting school to new athletic teams, let alone preparing for Winter and the upcoming holidays. Do you find your self:

• Needing a vacation from your vacation?
• Wanting to feel relaxed and rejuvenated?
• Seeking balance and internal harmony?

I am always available to assist your process, combining tools for transformation, customized to your experience, drawing upon that which will benefit you the most:

• Hypnosis for personal successful solutions
• Astrology Readings as a personal map
• Reiki healing energy
• A Whole Hearted Tarot Reading

My regular offices hours are:

• Monday, Wednesdays and Fridays mornings in Soquel
• Monday and Tuesday afternoons in Santa Cruz

Call or email for your appointment today!

What was the most fun you had this summer? Take a moment to close your eyes, take a deep breath in, and really remember a moment simple happiness. This will be a seed to cherish over the days and weeks to come.

For myself, my partner and I made a series of short videos on self empowerment, starting our own company, Chayla Productions. The three first releases out, coming soon are short presentations on The Power of Journaling, The Power of Affirmations, a Chakra Balancing, and a full tongue in cheek spoof on hypnosis, The "Happy as a Clam" Meditation.

I'm interested in creating webinars and videos based on my workshops and classes, including Creative Abundance, Beginning Astrology, Numerology, Radiate You Beauty, and Learning the Tarot. What would you be interested in? Your feedback is appreciated, and of course, private lessons always available

May the Fall equinox bring you harmony, equilibrium and an abundance of joy.
 

Blessed be,

Kayla
