I have always had a love affair with words. The sound of words can inspire, connect, make us remember, and heal. I have been writing poetry and creative short story since I was a teenager. I went to Johnson & Wales and graduated with a bachelor’s in science in court reporting. I was blessed to have a fulfilling career that spanned over two decades.
As a whole, complex, and creative individual, I have always loved yoga since 2000 (in all its varied forms). I immediately noticed how healing and connecting it can be to link my body and mind with my breath. I have been practicing kundalini yoga since 2013 and I finally got my kundalini yoga certification in 2023.
Healing Insights was created to discover, uncover, create, and inspire. It asks how do we cope with the inevitable changes and circumstances we find ourselves in? I share my stories honestly as an attempt to find meaning and connection. My intention is that sharing our stories will ultimately heal ourselves and the world. And I want to be a beacon of light to show that it is possible to find your footing and inner strength when the world seems to be in chaos.
Self-care with flair does not mean to be self-indulgent or self-absorbed. My stories are an example of real life: a human being not a human doing. And when we move through life with grace, we find the resilience to go forward and get through whatever our life circumstance is at the moment.
I’m always inspired by nature, her beauty and mystery. To be inspired, one only has to look outside oneself to see the beauty and the mystery that surrounds us all.
Poetry is my favorite medium of expression. I usually post one poem a week on Tuesdays, 10:30 AM, EST. Subscribe to my blog and you will never miss a post!
I’m currently navigating the role of mother, wife, vegan, native Rhode Islander and poet. I’m learning to trust the creative process. And I’m cultivating a sustained, daily kundalini yoga practice. I’d love to hear from you too! Let’s share our stories together.
