Champagne Time

Written by Tayria Ward on March 13, 2011

When I went through a breakdown many years ago my entire life and identity shattered to pieces, I went on a 10-day vision quest, alone in the woods by myself in an effort to recover and reclaim myself. Many things happened for me in those days, but I believe the

Dream of Danu

Written by Tayria Ward on March 9, 2011

Several days ago I dreamed that a Celtic Goddess and I were trying to get in synch with each other. There wasn’t a sense that she called to me, or that I called to her, it was the two of us working out this way of getting into connection. Something

Thought Train

Written by Tayria Ward on March 8, 2011

A body cleanse, I am discovering, is a shake-up for every other aspect of being. Of course, why wouldn’t it be? I know in my mind all of our systems are one whole, each obviously affecting all of the others, I still find myself surprised and fascinated.

Today I kept losing

Thought Detox

Written by Tayria Ward on March 7, 2011

I’m well into my month-long detox, having to stay focused on what is going into my body and look right past items in my cabinet or refrigerator that are not for now. It helped yesterday to have a friend with me who put her hands on my back and pushed

Written by Tayria Ward on March 5, 2011

Body Awareness

Written by Tayria Ward on March 2, 2011

Proud to be Human, the Oscars

Written by Tayria Ward on February 28, 2011

Every year the Oscars show is like the Super Bowl for me as one who follows actors, directors, script writers, move-maker/story-tellers. My sense is that a movie is a collective dream, demonstrated as a shamanic necessity and gift by those who participate in them no matter how aware they are

It Might Get Loud

Written by Tayria Ward on February 27, 2011

I just watched a movie by this title directed by Davis Guggenheim who also made An Incovenient Truth. This film is a profile of three electric guitarists – The Edge of U2, Jimmy Page from Led Zepplin and Jack White of The White Stripes. The movie is not as much
