Month: September 2026

At 92, this global influencer has departed our Earthly realm. May she rest well, having served humanity to her fullest capacity. She leaves us to continue in her stead.

My mother and I took the bus in 1980 to attend the women’s March in Chicago where Gloria Steinem presided over us all, similarly clad in white to present unity. We simply wanted equal rights to men. Great progress and setbacks have occurred, so we march on.

Do you believe in equality? Are you experiencing it yet? Ki to Happiness is an agent of equality, unity and integration of bodymindspirit.

In my two private sessions yesterday I worked with good men. They take responsibility for themselves and their shortcomings. In doing so, both are making progress on their respective paths.

When students or students fail to take responsibility for themselves, they don’t make progress. Projecting authority outward, they may blame the teacher or therapist for not “fixing” them. The fix is self responsibility, honesty and consistence in appliying steady and temperate effort on one’s chosen path.

Are you willing to take complete responsibility for yourself?Honestly, how consistent are you on your path? Ki to Happiness is able to respond to the nudges from her internal Authority with diligence.

May the great humble poet farmer, Wendell Berry rest in peace after his 92 years on this Earth. Perhaps free to roam energetically in the mystery, he is able to join in the Peace of Wild Things. He’s shown us the way through despair as his legacy.

Many need his words now. Taking his gentle counsel, we push back from the screens, the news, the politics and lay down on the ground. Letting the creatures, rocks and plants of our planet show us how to live, we reconnect ourselves to Nature and naturally less desperate.

What will your legacy be? What do you do when you feel desperate? Ki to Happiness reconnects with Nature outdoors, or on the yoga mat.

Welcome September! We head into the Ber months with sunshine and bounty. I whomped up some fabulous food from all the students’ gifts from their gardens to celebrate.

The scent lingered as I taught my 10 am class without any complaint from those gathered. I put up some of the summer blessings to brighten SeptemBer, OctoBer, NovemBer and DecemBer. Bob and I enjoyed some to conclude August well nourished and grateful.

Do you look forward to the Ber months? What blessings from the summer will you take with you? Ki to Happiness takes beet green, cherry tomatoes, tomatillos and basil together with the warmth of our generous community into autumn.
