Love this. Are you going to move?

I’ve been wanting to move back east to be closer to our kids but need to know if the timing is right. I meditate and ask for signs whenever I have a question. Spirit provides. I’ve learned to never make a big decision while emotional or fearful.

I love this: meditate and ask for signs. 🙌🏽 May you receive your guidance on timing… PS my friend Rosella is excited to teach us Italian when that timing works!

I struggle with SAD in the dark damp chill of Seattle winters. I taught annual workshops in Costa Rica until Covid; it’s our first time back since 2019. So much to love; but my gut is saying we’ll do long visits instead of moving .

Long visits to CR is a great alternative.

What does Rosella charge?

Seattle winters can be tough.

Loving the time machine practice. It was exactly what I needed today. Something about the concrete visualization of the dial unlocked something in me, and I feel much more grounded and aligned. Deep gratitude ❤️

I'm so glad to offer you a smidge of comfort today, Rachel. My tools are grounded in neuroscience of imagination. The more physical our experience, the more real the effects.

Wonderful, Darla! Where are you located in CR? We're in a literal cloud forest this season up in Alto de Monte. Great for growing coffee and moisturizing skin. Heading downhill in a few days to visit friends in sunnier climes, and my great love, Océano Pacífico. 🌊

Oh that’s great! We’re in a cloud forest on the other side of San Jose, Dota region, Valle de los Santos where a lot of coffee is grown 😋 we’re in a peaceful little gem of a mountain village. My kids go to a one room school house with a total of four kids in the school 😆

The twins in our Framily walk to a tiny school with 8 kids. I love village life. This enclave is truly communal, sharing the tasks and joys of daily life

Ever dreamed of escaping to a tropical paradise like Costa Rica? ...every single day (but also Alaska oddly)...

Ever get your panties in a massive wad to decide something? ...every single day (but sometimes in boxers oddly)...

How do you finally eventually make your choice? ...connect random dots across all of the decision cycle's existence until one side of the scale tilts...trust the clouds...
