MotheringJoy Gift Bundle

Posted on: May 3rd, 2012 by ingrid 1 Comment

I created the MotheringJoy Gift Bundle this week after I selected the winning number of a beautiful mothering soul for the Good Mother, Welcome Raffle….and of course I wanted to send her even more.  So here is a nourishing book of comfort, a bouquet for love and beauty, and my three special children’s primers for snuggling in close and reading together.

If you know someone who could use such a boost as this, you may order the MotheringJoy Gift Bundle here.

Children!

Posted on: April 1st, 2011 by ingrid No Comments

For children everything is new.
Children come fresh from the source.
Time spent with a child
is an opportunity to rediscover
the Divine, wonder, gratitude,
dances of joy and delight,
spontaneous songs,
innocence, essential goodness,
laughter and good mischief.

Children give their hearts easily.
They fall in love freely.
Learn from them.
Fall in love…
with your child, with yourself,
with your partner,
with your work.
Reconnect with those good feelings.
You still know them.
They are there inside you.

To Reconnect With Your Loving Center

Posted on: March 17th, 2011 by ingrid No Comments

Take a moment
to follow your breath.

Breathe in Peace,
Breathe out Love.

Breathe in Peace,
Breathe out Love.

Breathe in Love,
Breathe out Peace.

Breathe in Love,
Breathe out Peace.

Allow yourself to be nourished
and awakened by this simple
practice often.
