Sitting with the warm sun on my face, a breeze brushes the hair into my eyes, and suddenly a crow calls in the yard next door. I love to connect with the experiences I’m having as I take a few moments to get present in the energy of the upcoming full solar eclipse. This eclipse […]
How a single red leaf changed my life
