The Calming buzz of eventual always - rapture HAHAHAHAHAHA?

Among my intense dreams of the last year that has been very communicative with galacticness and aligniment stuff and dealing with my hometown hero complex and my course changing decision to head to the dessert to once and for all get out the nasty old habits and find some space and time to heal the wounds of my body mind spirit, I am taking things so perfectly slowly and even among the tragedy of epic storm stomping through our bible belt.... and the utter chaos of this GOP making the last desperate grabs at power money something it is clear that there is the new skin underneath and so as we say good bye to the comfort of Oprah's guidance, the message is clear that we have our own heart to shine the light of right and wrong for ourselves and to let the expectations of intended future worry us into frozen. It just is not so anymore. I have been taking the time to read about the 5 languages of Love and catching up on Ally Mcbeal which is a late 90s legal show that embraced it's quirck and I have to say I feel like I am finally taking the time to understand what is love and relationships, apparantly in my 20s I thought I knew eveything I needed to know and on some levels I did for me but with out any regard for what that meant for understanding what that meant for anyone that wanted to be in my life. So my point of this week, and with the whole rapture pressure off and that this is the end of one world to the next one, I have to respect the process and not make the assumptions but be present for what I can and be even more honest about what I can't do. But leave some room to dream because that is the map.

Back to new Social Systems starting with planking

When I saw this I was deeply amused,
it's like reverse engineering zen meditation.

So I have been needing a lot of love and light for my body and mind this spring and this TED talk blew my mind LIterally! Also because it made my look into Ray Kurtzweil all the more amazeballs.... singularity whaaaaa? enjoy......

I always feel like I'm cheating because everything on TED is so amazing which is why I have to give a shout out that I will be fulfilling a dream and live blogging TED SF on June 4 it should be a stunning event and more detalis to come. Lets hope I get to talk bout it here!

So big plans for the summer you bethcha I am going on a Health and Spiritual Sabatacal, which should make these posts even more cultural rehab esque? Dear readers I have longed for many years to truly install some of the obvious ways of living that I am fighting for on the show and so I am off to AZ and the Tree of Life Rejuvination Spa Retreat to go raw vegan do some Yoga meditate and all the other thinks and bees that go with quiet dessert living. I have just started a chinese herb tonic which tastes like how it looks care of my friendcs at Wood Tiger in the castro, but I feel stronger, and well I thought after having a series of really stressful years and my body just feeling and looking what is unvibrant
I checked out this amazing tea Documentary All in this Tea, as well more on that in my docs section. I am going the distance and hope you will enjoy following me on the adventure. So what am I doing for rapture you ask? playing and teaching art to kids in Jellyfish gallery and dancing at Kylies Aphrodities spectacular! I'm definately feeling the love.....

The week of Relief and correction

This week was kicked off by a cool and confident Obama snagging a hat trick with releasing a much questioned certification roasting the press and his peanut gallery and ending the nations longsuffering boogyman scare. Granted the nations rejoice for an execution of our enemy, still is not a sit well, but there was relief in this country and now we have no reason to be at war or away from home or on the spending spree for war that has led to our massive debts and drained resources. We had biblical storms, and an epic video about Judas, and a dance video form beyonce which was clearly intended for a nation of exercise starved children.
I personally went to a party with the Zeitgeisters and faced 3 of my main phobias including spiders, snakes, and ladders, AWESOME! I also had a goddess brownie and had a whole bunch of innervisions that led me to shake some of the dust from my head, imagine me to realize this was about the time that at a grander scale someone else was getting some puttinto his.

Spring is about feeling new again and all week I have been excited to feel the show come together, however my anxiety for what my life is outside of the show is still a big fat question mark, but clearly this is a part of my experience, I started acupuncture treatments (Wood Tiger in the castro is amazing) and have really felt more hope and more focus on what I can do to put me to a state of optimum and just how far I am from that. If we all know that diet and exercise work than why is it so hard to green light it? If we know that the republicans are doing bad things than why are we letting ourselves be screwed it is only us that suffers? At wood tiger they reminded me of the difference between relief and corrective care.  I fell and took a bath I sat there and felt relief after 10 mins, and my antsy self said ok onto the next thing, but then I stopped and I said no I want to correct which means not just fix the symptoms but really treat the problems, so I sat and began to feel better stronger and this has led me back to a very zen place in my life which is breathing it out and time. Relief is easy and this is what most people seek, and often what we are used too as Americans, our entertainment and technology, our very fabric as a culture is based on this relief system which is only about 30% towards thriving, but now my eyes are squinting to see the corrective care where I can see a place of health and vitality.
With that being said welcome May with a month of Social movements, I want some corrective care.

the art of feeling it. Dealing with disappointments

Expectations are a given. This morning I woke to join the rest of the world in celebration of a much anticipated union, the dress was lovely and a great choice and when I heard the vows, I was spooked what was all this talk of fear of God? I guess this is the burden of Royalty that they are so weighted with luxury that there is no room for actual splendor? I  am relieved that my vision of a fairytale is now very much different than the british version, I would want the love of God to be my unifier and a kiss that would be deep and lasting to nourish our souls, if that is tradition than yes I'm new school  and not looking back.

The love of my show, well good bad or well what have you I like getting in a studio and talking listening and playing some great music, this week there has been the last minute universal, on the way to studio was an email blast saying the net was down and all shows are canceled for the day,,,, wha wha wha and oddly enough I was really looking forward to having the show all to myself again, as my guests fell through, relieved actually, as I felt they weren't a fit for what I'm trying to do here anyway and after all this is where we are coming clean so eff it. I'm going to reconstruct some of the things I would have had on a regular show and my recap I did on the various festivals for the newsmagazine at KCSF and well this is what I love to do so I'm a going to do it. As Sammy would say I gotta be me.

And in that spirit, I have been grapling with being single, which is usually not an issue, but I am strangely becoming aware of my feelings and needs and I met someone that made me very at ease and open to yonder ahead, I am reminded of the agony of self reflection and the nature of me as a desireable canidate as I push through my days and nights of should I what are the rules of our game, and that this gets reflectedw as I search emplyment that also is equally appreciative of me and can challenge and delight me and bring out my very best. It is so hard to know how much you have to offer and it sitting on a shelf waiting to have an occasion like the perfect dress, where do I wear it? My mantra is always have it and the occasion will come, perhaps my skills for the amazing job and the charm for the awesomeest guy will also automacigly harmonize together as well.  You can't hurry love, a great record, and the perfect job. SO chin up because today one girl got her wish to come true she got her prince, and maybe it was exactly what she wanted, but we know that not everything turns out perfect but just hold steady to what you really want and believe in and it will all work out.

Great Show Going Green with a splash of Blushing

Cultural rehab was a raw sandwhich this week between 4/20 and Earth Day! We started out our 1st hour with Green Entrepeneur Taja Di Leonardi owner of Ecohome Improvement in Berkley and EcoDealy.com. She talks about starting a green buissness, be it brick and mortar or online and the challenges and rewards of following your instincts and developing the dream. Then we had an inpormptu chat with Monika of Sexploration with Monika whixch is where the blushing comes in. I have to say that it was a moment of greatness just because it was what i needed, not just for the show but to also just casual chat about what was in my head and heart, I am growing to really love my radio show as an extension of my life. Is this what they mean when they say I love my life and fully get the sense of gratitude as everything falls into place as you need, so just shut up and Trust? Guess so. So my other guest was late but hey he is from Deep Green and well, that is a marijuana hemp music expo so I guess his concept of time is different than most. It all worked out. I had a great time and the show was informative, funny and just as it should be. Deep Green was pretty and had lots of interesting mix of hip hop, hippies, feather leather, and organic wellness. I'd say the shift is off to a good start. You can find it all on the podcast

A funny thing happened on my way to wherever....

As always Ted blows my mind. Could we finally find the tool to unlock our great future? Is it being wrong? This is the compassion key.

Gleeking out this weekend and getting Green

Ok after a hiatus of mass consumption of netwerking at
Web 2.0 Kevin Kelly from Wired gave an insightful Key note talking about the importance of streaming and curation if soon we could fit ever song that has ever been made on 1 hard drive and we all have access to it well then, how do we find what we want, digging through the crates is actually filtering the stream, and that's when we pay for it because I want the best and I want it now, like Buff exchange..... Data 2.0 If the best and the brightest minds sat in a room on Saturday and said we are going to organize all of the world's information to be simple and effective for solving the problems of modern excess how long would it take to get those systems implemented? We will soon find out. Greenfest is an emerging community and lifestyle but how do you straddle both sides by charging premeium price for some nothing at all for others it is still a strange bubble that reflects the complexity of SF itself,making money by teaching how to not care so much about it? It still is delicious and I always find new and amazing Mama Chia, orgainc finger puppets, how to make elixers, delicous vegan burger, running into friends and meeting up with leaders of the green community awesome.... and NAB show... finally I saw and met those decision makers and they all talked about developing content that is appropriate and complex and thoughtful, it was inspiring and getting to rub elbows with the creators was an important reminder of how much I have to believe in the work that I am doing, here and wherever I go what ever I do, heart on my sleeve passion in my voice and a drink raised to say I believe that this is the change despite what I see and where I go I will find it.

and coming home to needing a massive dose of Glee (an amazing show that reinforced all of my cultural curiosities and reminded me of the struggles with identy and pleaseing a crowd, finding the courage to be yourself, sticking with the dream repecting your friends and lovers, the sacrifices and consequences of your decisions it was an adreniline boost, even if it was the secondary choice to skipping in the park or lunch with my latest enigma.....
it is now time to Get Green for April! (Well let's talk about what is that process, nutrition lifestyle, making money and giving love to a gentle and frustrated earth ship so FOR EARTH DAY DO SOMETHING VERY DIRTY - GET INVOLVED IN YOUR LIFE AND COMMUNITY AND BEYOND.

On a sad note RIP GURU from GangStarr above the clouds was an anthem for me and I must must must say thanks for making me feel invincibale when I heard it. GURU thanks for sharing.
