December 2025 ~ Full Moon
I'm living in a time where death and life exist close by each other; in my family, my community, and in this Winter season of the Northern Hemisphere.
And, we live in these times together; this is our collective theme.
I seem to be either thriving in my teaching practice, at the GFL, Berlin, a 'Just Me' retreat last week in Findhorn, and in the Universal Hall over the next few days (I anticipate thriving as it's been consistent!), or I am being very quiet... gentle yoga, meditating, sitting with the sky and sea. Breathing.
I need this inward time of solitude to balance things out and find peace with the fullness.
I know life is full for many of you reading this. 1/4 of the group coming to dance 'becoming' this weekend have had some kind of burnout or suffer from pain that impacts their quality of life.
And still we dance!
Because, truly, all of you are welcome. However you are, in person or online. Let's accompany each other.

Supporting the Universal Hall, FINDHORN
As many of you know, the Findhorn Community, Ecovillage, and Findhorn Foundation have been going through their own death and rebirth experience over the past few years. One way to keep in touch is to join the mailing list of Ecovillage Findhorn (EVF).
The Universal Hall, once under the auspices of the Findhorn Foundation, is now owned by the Community, which is very exciting. And... it's become apparent that there is a lot of maintenance to be done, some of it urgent.
So a fundraising campaign has been started, which is gathering support from people all over the world - maybe you!
"To so many of you, the Universal Hall is a beloved venue and we are very touched by and grateful for the support we have received so far.... we are on our way to reaching our target of £100,000 - a huge thank you to all those who have contributed so far!
If you would like to join our growing number of Universal Hall supporters, please consider making a one-off or monthly donation for the upkeep and upgrading of our beloved Universal Hall via the QR codes or link below! "
