Five Things to Inspire: Meditation

Shift Meditation is a practise I return to and fall away from over and over again. I first encountered meditation techniques in various yoga classes as a teenage, but took my first deep dive at the Shambhala Centre in Victoria B.C. When I returned home to Nova Scotia with Mat in 2010, we unknowingly entered … Continue reading Five Things to Inspire: Meditation

Beautiful Failures: Celebrating Garden Wins

There comes a times in every cycle of doing…a season, a quarter, a year, a decade, even a single day – when you need to let the failures be, and celebrate the wins. Better yet, accept the failures as part of the wins. I do best when my days are anchored by simple demands  – … Continue reading Beautiful Failures: Celebrating Garden Wins

Late Summer Family Foraging

Late Summer Family Foraging

I had a lovely time on Sunday morning chatting with Niki Jabbour on her radio show The Weekend Gardener. Imagine my delight when Niki announces to the world that she is a fan of my blog! I’ve been enjoying her books, web content, radio show, and her work in general for years, so I was … Continue reading Late Summer Family Foraging

August Transitions and Transformation

I’ve taken a bit of step back from blogging this month. I won’t be writing a Five Things to Inspire for August, but I will be back with a new one in September. To be honest, I’m not feeling very inspired this month. We completely shifted our family rhythm this summer. Actually, umm, we are … Continue reading August Transitions and Transformation

Overwhelm and Abundance in the Garden

Overwhelm and Abundance in the Garden

It is the full moon in July.  This is always the point in the summer when I become incredibly overwhelmed. Overwhelmed by weeds crowding everything, the list of things to harvest and preserve, the Fall planting window about to close, spaces we worked so hard to clear the previous year becoming completely overgrown, the crabgrass … Continue reading Overwhelm and Abundance in the Garden

Five Things to Inspire: Foraging

I hope this month’s Five Things will inspire some of you to share in this joyful experience of nature’s abundance. I’ve noticed a growing interest in foraging in the last few years – there seem to be more books, workshops, guided walks, culinary experiences and restaurants featuring wild foods than ever before. I think this … Continue reading Five Things to Inspire: Foraging

How to Make Herbal Iced Tea

How to Make Herbal Iced Tea

Nova Scotia is presently in the middle of a heat wave. In my coastal community, the ocean breeze and periods of fog have provided some relief, but I’m fairly certain everyone inland has flocked to our local beaches. We still have gardening to do and the kids are mostly playing (kiddie) poolside with homemade popsicles. … Continue reading How to Make Herbal Iced Tea

The Sweetness of Tiny Wild Things

The Sweetness of Tiny Wild Things

  “Oh Mama, I am so glad that you are the kind of mama who likes to pick tiny wild strawberries for her kids.” Oh, honey, me too. Thank you.  When I take the time to pause, slow down, and savour a moment with my children I am always rewarded by their gratitude. It is so beautiful, … Continue reading The Sweetness of Tiny Wild Things
